Chapter 64 Sister Orange? Sister Ya Nan

When Gu Yanan heard that Yue Xiyuan had arrived, she looked up at him. For the past two days, apart from meals and going to the toilet, she had been holding Yue Yufeng's hand and accompanying him. It was already difficult for her to look up at Yue Xiyuan and Yan An, but this one glance left Gu Yanan stunned.

"What did you just say her name was?" Gu Yanan suddenly stood up and walked to Yan An's side. If she hadn't misheard, Yue Xiyuan said that the woman next to him was named Yan An.

"Yan An, my fiancée, Princess Yue An of Yue Kingdom, what's wrong?" Yue Xiyuan and Yan An were both puzzled. Logically speaking, they had never met each other before, so why was Gu Yanan so surprised?

"What is her relationship with an old man with a white beard named Bai Qing?" Gu Yanan continued to ask. She had been looking for her for many years and hoped it was her.

"Bai Qing is my master. Does General Gu know my master?" As soon as Yan An finished speaking, Gu Yanan stepped forward and hugged Yan An. Yan An struggled a few times, but found it was useless, so she stopped moving. However, Yan An was somewhat surprised because she actually felt a familiar feeling in Gu Yanan's embrace.

"We've gotten to know each other, may I call you An'an?" Gu Yanan asked Yan An gently, making Yan An feel even more familiar with her.

Looking at General Gu, who gave her a sense of familiarity and whose longing eyes she couldn't bear to refuse, Yan An said, "Okay."

"An'an, do you remember Yu Cheng? The Cheng who grants all wishes." As soon as Gu Yanan finished speaking, Yan'an froze. How could she not remember Yu Cheng, her best friend and sister who protected her, guarded her, and accompanied her? It's just that she's been gone for many years…

Could it be? A thought suddenly occurred to Yan An: "Goose, goose, goose."

"With its neck bent, it sings to the sky."

"...Do you need me to continue memorizing?" Gu Yanan smiled gently, her expression full of affection.

"It really is you! How did you get here? Waaah... Do you know how heartbroken I was when I died? I missed you so much!" Yan An hugged Gu Yanan, tears streaming down her face. This was the first time Yue Xiyuan had ever seen Yan An so heartbroken. He wanted to go over and comfort her, but found that Yan An was hugging Gu Yanan very tightly.

It turns out that his An'an abandoned him...

No, when did they meet? Gu Yanan was always in the Western Territory. When did she die? Yue Xiyuan couldn't figure it out at all.

"Alright, alright, I never noticed before that you were such a crybaby. Your cute little face won't look good if you cry." Gu Yanan gently wiped Yan An's face with a handkerchief. She had waited for many years to find her, how could she bear to see her cry?

At this moment, Yue Xiyuan looked exactly like a third wheel, extremely pitiful, as if he had been abandoned by Yan An.

"Sister Ya Nan, how did you end up here?" Gu Ya Nan pulled Yan An to sit on the tea bed and poured her a cup of water. "It's a long story, I'll tell you when I have time. Have some tea first to soothe your throat."

Yan An ignored Yue Xiyuan, and Gu Yanan ignored Yue Yufeng on the bed.

"By the way, the Emperor's poison can be cured. I have brought the Tian Shan Snow Lotus, and my senior brother, Su Jingzhan, has already gone to make the medicine." Yue Xiyuan had just told her that Gu Yanan and the Emperor were of one mind and deeply in love, so she naturally couldn't let her worry.

"It's alright, I believe everything An'an says. Finding you is the happiest thing that happened to me today." Gu Yanan had already forgotten about Yue Yufeng. Poor Yue Yufeng...

Yue Xiyuan thought to himself: This wasn't the case when you came yesterday...

"The antidote is ready, ready. Quickly give it to His Majesty." Su Jingzhan handed the medicine to Gu Yanan. Gu Yanan helped Yue Yufeng sit up, pried open his mouth, stuffed the pill into Yue Yufeng's mouth, and suddenly raised her chin violently, completely unlike the gentle and considerate Yan An had been before.

"Why isn't he awake yet? Didn't you say that having the Heavenly Snow Lotus would cure the poison?" Gu Yanan was getting anxious as she looked at Yue Yufeng lying unresponsive on the dragon bed.

"General Gu, rest assured, His Majesty has been poisoned for many days and needs to bathe in the water of Tianshan Mountain to be detoxified immediately."

"Water from Tianshan? Isn't that a rare and precious medicine?" Gu Yanan was disappointed, thinking that the poison would be cured immediately. "It's alright, I'll take care of him these days. Doctor Su, just call me Yanan from now on. We're all friends, General Gu is being too formal." Gu Yanan covered Yue Yufeng with a blanket, held his hand, and was already very fortunate that his life was not in danger.

“Alright, then Ya Nan can just call me Jing Zhan. As for the water from Tianshan, Junior Sister has it. It will completely cure the poison without having to wait a few days.” Although Su Jing Zhan had not seen the water from Tianshan, he knew that if Junior Sister said she had it, then she would have it.

"Is it true? An'an really has it?" Gu Yanan looked at Yan An with renewed hope.

“It’s true, I’ll take you there.” Yan An pulled the group along and teleported into the space, placing the Emperor in the hot spring.

"Where is this? Is all this water from the Tianshan Mountains? Is this a hot spring from the Tianshan Mountains? Is this Tianshan snow green? Is this Tianshan snow lotus?" Su Jingzhan looked around like a country bumpkin visiting the Grand View Garden. "Yue Xiyuan, my junior sister has really lost out by following you."

"What did you say? You don't want your life?" Yue Xiyuan pursed his thin lips, his aura dark and terrifying. He wanted An'an to leave him, even if the sky fell down.

"No, no, no, you and your junior sister are destined for each other, a perfect match. I wish you a harmonious and loving marriage, and a long and happy life together." Su Jingzhan fawned over Yue Xiyuan, afraid that Yue Xiyuan might dismember him if he was unhappy.

"Yue Xiyuan, senior brother, you must be tired these past few days. Go to a bar. I'll show Ya Nan around."

"Alright." Why not take a bath if it's too good to pass up? Yue Xiyuan certainly wouldn't let him come in to a place like this anytime. Every time he comes in, it's one less time he can go, so he definitely wants to make the most of it all at once.

Yue Xiyuan felt ashamed to look at him. He felt that Su Jingzhan was embarrassing more and more, but it didn't matter. It seemed that An'an had something to talk to Gu Yanan about, so he went to soak in the water. These past few days had indeed made him physically and mentally exhausted.

Yan An led Gu Yanan to her laboratory. "Sister Yanan, look here, isn't it exactly the same as before?"

"It really is exactly the same, and it even has a computer?" Gu Yanan pressed a button. "Can't it connect to the internet?"

"Yes, it can only be used for experiments, nothing else. Here, have a taste." Yan An poured two glasses of red wine and handed one to Gu Yanan.

"Wow, they even have this." She and Yan An had secretly drunk it many times before.
