Su Ping had just finished washing her hands when she heard a knock on the bathroom door.
"Pingping, are you in there?"
Lu Zhiyan's voice.
Su Ping went over and opened the door, and was startled when she saw Lu Zhiyan standing outside.
Didn't he go to ask about the blankets? Why is he all wet?
Lu Zhiyan sneezed and wrung out the water from his body.
The old woman had just led him halfway downstairs when they suddenly heard a bell ringing.
The old woman told him to turn left and then opened the second door on the right, saying there were clean blankets inside and he could take one himself.
He had just opened the door when he didn't notice and stepped into thin air.
The room was a huge swimming pool, and he fell straight into it.
It was very slippery inside, and it took him a long time to climb up.
Su Ping couldn't help but laugh after hearing his words.
The old woman did look quite old; she probably remembered it wrong.
When Lu Zhiyan saw her laughing at her, she immediately felt extremely aggrieved, as if she would pounce on her and bite her if she laughed again.
Su Ping stopped teasing him and, seeing that his clothes were all wet, couldn't help but push him into the bathroom.
"Go wash up quickly, don't catch a cold."
A bolt of lightning flashed outside, making Su Ping feel a little scared.
The rain poured down, and Su Ping quickly threw off the covers and lay back down.
Why does time seem to pass so slowly at night?
Su Ping glanced at her phone and realized it was only 1:30 a.m.
There are still several hours until nine o'clock.
Lu Zhiyan took a quick shower, and a few minutes later he pushed open the door and came out.
Su Ping remembered that he hadn't gotten a blanket and had instead returned soaking wet, so she patted the side of her and said.
"It's quite cold tonight, let's huddle together under one blanket, that way we'll stay warm..."
Su Ping's head movement froze for a moment, and she couldn't continue speaking.
Lu Zhiyan's clothes were completely wet, and he was only wearing a bath towel around his waist, which was loosely tied.
You might think he did it on purpose, but his eyes, though clear, reveal a foolishness.
Lu Zhiyan seemed to have been waiting for her to say those words, and immediately walked over quickly, lifted the covers, and lay down.
Su Ping looked at the bath towel around his waist, afraid that if he moved too much, the towel would slip down.
Some cold bodies pressed against her from the side, and Su Ping was stunned.
Lu Zhiyan seemed unaware that something was wrong. He placed his hand on her waist and pulled her into his arms with a little force.
Did you wash with cold water?
Su Ping shivered from the cold; his body felt like a block of ice.
Lu Zhiyan hugged her tightly: "The power is out, there's no hot water."
"It's okay, we won't be cold if we hug each other."
After saying that, he hugged Su Ping even tighter, as if he were hugging a warm doll.
Su Ping blinked, feeling that something was amiss.
There was still hot water when she washed her hands, so how come it was gone after only a short while?
She stared at Lu Zhiyan for a while and noticed that although his eyes were closed, his eyelashes were still fluttering.
He still can't lie, as always.
Su Ping chuckled softly and patted his head: "Go to sleep."
In the darkness, listening to Su Ping's gradually steady breathing, Lu Zhiyan opened his eyes.
Is Pingping really that easy to fool?
There was hot water available, but he cleverly poured cold water over himself.
This way, he would have an excuse to get close to her.
Lu Zhiyan smiled and patted the top of her head, pleased with his own cleverness.
The next day, Su Ping was woken up by Lu Zhiyan.
He was playing with her face, touching her hair.
After Su Ping sneezed, she was immediately wide awake.
I glanced at the time; it was only a little past seven.
When Lu Zhiyan saw that she was awake, he picked her up and sat her up.
"Pingping, let's go for a walk downstairs."
Yesterday, when the old woman took him to get his quilt, she casually said something to him.
It is said that there is a lake nearby, and if two people who truly love each other go to see it together, they will be blessed by the spirits at the bottom of the lake and stay together forever.
He wanted to go with Pingping.
Knowing that she was about to leave, Su Ping agreed to his request.
After a quick wash, the two went downstairs.
The journey was very quiet, not at all like the old woman had said, that the place was full of guests.
Su Ping felt that there was something strange about this place, so she forced herself to look away and followed Lu Zhiyan toward the lake.
Su Ping considered whether she should find an opportunity to say a final goodbye to Lu Zhiyan, but the idea was immediately interrupted by Huluwa's warning.
[Host, do not try to tell these things to the characters in the book, or the consequences will be severe.]
What are the consequences?
Calabash Brothers refused to answer her anymore, so Su Ping had to give up the idea.
The two walked a kilometer in just over ten minutes.
The lake was fenced off, but that didn't stop people from coming to see it.
The lake is a pale blue, and it is indeed very beautiful.
Lu Zhiyan held Su Ping's hand, looked at the lake with a devout expression, closed his eyes, and opened them after a long while.
Su Ping looked at him mysteriously and asked him if he had just made a wish.
Lu Zhiyan smiled and shook his head, saying it was a secret.
Finally, the two found a clean spot to sit down. The sun was out a little, but it wasn't too hot.
Last night's rain blew down many withered branches and leaves, and the air was filled with the smell of soil and grass.
"Pingping, let's go back together."
Su Ping looked at Lu Zhiyan and found him looking at her expectantly.
"Let's get married after we go back, okay?"
Su Ping withdrew her gaze and smiled, "Dream on, it's not time yet."
Lu Zhiyan lowered his head in disappointment. If he had known it would take so long, he should have set the date earlier.
Su Ping glanced at the time; it was almost 8:30.
She couldn't marry him at the wedding he had been looking forward to.
Just as Su Ping was about to compose herself and leave, she suddenly heard an alarm.
At the same time, the Calabash Brothers' somewhat hurried voice rang out.
[Ding! Data anomaly. The three male supporting characters' "darkening" values have collectively surged and they are on their way. Host, please pray for your safety!]
Su Ping's smile froze as she went over her words in her mind again.
【What's the meaning? 】
[I couldn't see their "darkening" progress bar for a while, and my boss just replied that it wasn't because the progress bar was reset, but rather that it spiked again after being reset.]
The sound of the Calabash Brothers made Su Ping's head buzz, and she glanced at the time.
How far are they now?
[It's nearby!]
Su Ping suddenly stood up, startling Lu Zhiyan who was standing next to her.
[Pingping, what's wrong?]
Su Ping looked around. Their location was too conspicuous; they could be seen from anywhere.
Why don't you find a place to hide first?
Su Ping thought about it more and more and felt that this method was feasible, so she said to Lu Zhiyan who was standing next to her.
"Zhiyan, how about we play a game?"
