In the night sky, the stars have decreased, but the moonlight is much brighter than before. Pen, fun, pavilion www. biquge。 info

Yan Ning knelt beside the faint candlelight, and wrote neat and vigorous words on the bamboo slices one by one. He had already borrowed this ancient book from a friend a month ago, and he had made an appointment that tomorrow would be the return date in a month, so he didn't want to delay it and lose his trust.

I don't know how long it took.

In the distance, the mountains have turned white, and the cool air is getting warmer.

At this moment, the door of the room in front of him suddenly opened, Qu Yiying rubbed his eyes sleepily and tiredly, and stepped out of the threshold with a cloak on his head.

"You only woke up after sleeping for a while?" Yan Ning stopped the pen in his hand and raised his eyes to look at her.

Hearing this, Qu Yiying sighed, a pair of beautiful and charming eyes were dim at the moment, and when she lowered her eyelids, there was a circle of clearly visible blue under the deep long eyelashes, and she said in a slurred manner, "I...... I ......"

Yan Ning sat in place, still listening quietly, and his expression was focused, and he didn't seem to be in a hurry at all.

Qu Yiying was in a hurry, her hand unconsciously touched her stomach, and her white face suddenly turned red, "I'm so hungry, I didn't sleep at all last night." Liang Xi sent someone to guard her, and she didn't let anyone bring her dinner.

Half-loud, there was no sound around the silence.

Just when Qu Yiying buried his head in embarrassment, thinking that he would definitely be ridiculed, he seemed to catch a glimpse of his white clothes close to him out of the corner of his eye. She opened her eyes wide and looked up, and saw him holding a plate of golden and crispy pastries in his hand, bright in color and very motivating to arouse people's appetites.

She swallowed.

"I made this last night, and I can still eat it." Yan Ning handed her the pastry and said gently, not disgusted with her unkempt appearance now.

I don't know if it's because of my embarrassment, or because I was moved by the help I received when I was embarrassed, Qu Yiying looked at the delicious and delicious food, and her nose suddenly felt sour, but she still resisted the urge to cry, smiled brightly at Yan Ning, and ate without scruples.

After a while.

"Xiao Ning, where did you get these pastries? How I didn't see it. She sat down in a rocking chair.

Yan Ning also returned to the wooden table, holding a brush and preparing to write, when he heard the question, he turned around and took out a food box made of nanmu from the right side of the wooden table, "Because I had to return the book early in the morning, I prepared some dry food for breakfast last night." ”

Qu Yiying was holding the last piece of delicacy in her hand, and she was going to put it in her mouth, but when she heard the words, she immediately stopped, and she asked with a red face, "I ate your breakfast, so what should you do?" ”

"It's okay, I can come back and let my mother do it again." Yan Ning smiled slightly, and his eyes were already on the book in front of him.

At this time, in the gorgeous morning glow in the distance, the red sun is slowly rising. Qu Yiying saw that he was serious and focused, so he didn't want to disturb, he squinted, leaned back on the rocking chair, and basked in the sun leisurely in this place where the air was fresh and the birds were moving.

Moreover, in the warm sunshine, she unconsciously closed her eyes and fell asleep with her head tilted.

I don't know if it's because she was going to the Medicine King's Mansion later, she dreamed of Wu Zuo. In a vague dream, he was still squatting by the clear river, and when he saw himself, he walked over slowly, his gentle face was soft, and he did not have the indifferent and ruthless appearance of that day at all.

She had a request, so she naturally opened her mouth first, "Can Gongzi Wu send me back?" ”

He seemed to say something softly, but Qu Yiying couldn't hear it clearly, and his gentle expression made her feel that he didn't look like Wu Zuo in front of her.

Just when she was having this strange dream, Yan Ning finally stopped the pen in her hand and saw Qu Yiying curled up on her legs, reclining on the rocking chair.

"Yiying, you wake up."

Yan Ning came to her, "If you sleep any longer, you won't be able to see me later." ”

"Who can't you see?" After Qu Yiying woke up, she raised her head rubbingly, but she didn't expect her neck to be too strong and twisted into the meridians, so painful that she almost shed tears, "It hurts me to death." ”

Yan Ning hurriedly cared, "Are you okay?" ”

She stroked her neck with her left hand, shook her head, glanced at the neat books and bamboo slips placed on the wooden table, and asked him, "Have you finished writing?" ”

"Yes." Yan Ning picked up the ancient book, "Now I'm going to my friend's house, do you want to stay here or leave?" Last night, the people who pursued you ......" He paused, and when he turned to look at her, his clear eyes glowing with a hint of complexity.

Qu Yiying didn't notice Yan Ning's abnormality, but when he was worried, he smiled and said, "I'll leave later, but I need to borrow a set of your clothes and hat." ”

About a moment passed.

Qu Yiying is going to the Medicine King's Mansion, but it is the same as Yan Ning's friend's house. She was wearing men's clothes, her slender figure was mostly covered, and she wore a black gauze hat that did not show her face, just looking at the surface, she was almost the same as a thin man like Yan Ning.

The two of them walked on the road, and the natural and beautiful scenery around them made people feel comfortable unconsciously.

She turned her head and saw that Yan Ning was also looking at the scenery. This quiet and natural man seems to be very attentive and serious in whatever he does, and even after she recklessly broke into his world, he can do his own thing in peace, without the slightest pretentiousness.

"By the way, Ichiei, are you from here?" Qu Yiying was quietly looking at him, but Yan Ning suddenly turned his head.

She quickly turned around and smiled a little awkwardly, "Sort of...... Not really. ”

"But we people there are never short of books," she recalls in her mind the rows of serene bookshelves in the library, "and there are many books in us, and there are many opportunities to read, and there is even a kind of ...... that you can hold in your hands Things, can hold 10,000 volumes, for people to read at any time, as long as you want to see it, you can absolutely see it. ”

When Yan Ning heard that there was such a thing, it was really unheard of, and he said curiously, "I don't know where Yiying's hometown is?" Which country is it adjacent to? ”

Qu Yiying was originally just to alleviate the embarrassment, and said casually, but I didn't expect it to end badly, "In...... In the ......"

"In a remote village, far, far away from here, you won't know." After thinking about it for a long time, she could only explain it like this.

Yan Ning was fascinated by the "thing" that could hold 10,000 books, "Can you take me to your hometown after the screening?" ”

"Huh?" Qu Yiying secretly complained to himself, thought about countermeasures, and then looked at him with a serious face, "If Xiao Ning can invite me to eat pastries for a lifetime like just now, I will take you there." ”

Hearing this, Yan Ning's original yearning expression also became a little serious, and he read softly, "For a lifetime? ”

She nodded, no doubt. But I was thinking in my heart that even if it was an extremely simple thing, no one could guarantee that it would remain unchanged for a lifetime, and a person like Yan Ning who was as natural as he wished would not tie himself up with a meaningless promise.

Sure enough, after Yan Ning pondered for a while, he said regretfully, "Although pastries are common, the mood at that time is not common......"

The two of them walked all the way like this, and at this time they had already arrived at the mansion of Yan Ning's friend's house.

He slowly buried his head, and his gentle voice became a little hoarse, "Since I was a child, my father and mother have taught me that no matter when and who you meet, you should not ask about the past, do not mind the origin, and do not look forward to ......it" Speaking of this, Yan Ning suddenly raised his head to look at Qu Yiying, and there was a little apology in his eyes that had always been safe and clear, "But since I met Yiying, I couldn't help the expectation in my heart twice, and I asked rashly...... This is, it's Yan Ning's fault. ”

He took a few steps back, politely but distantly bowing to her.
