Chapter 145 They Miss Her Very Much

Gu Ci remembers this lantern.

It was Chinese Valentine's Day, and he and Nian Xi had guessed the answer to the riddle. The store owner invited him in to choose, and among a crowd of lanterns, he fell in love with the rabbit lantern at first sight.

He thought the rabbit's big eyes were somewhat similar to Nianxi's and were particularly cute, so he picked them out specifically to make Nianxi happy.

She was also wearing a wide-sleeved Liuxian skirt, but the difference was that the one he picked was just a painted skirt, while the one sent to her was a real skirt worn outside.

Silly and cute.

He stared at the rabbit almost greedily.

Gu Ci certainly knew who gave it to him.

Thinking of you.

Thoughts——

It turns out that her name sounds so beautiful and lingering on the tip of my tongue.

He carefully lifted the rabbit up and, holding the lamp handle, the rabbit spun and danced in front of him, as if she were beside him.

The originally tense nerves began to relax, and a part of the indestructible heart began to soften.

On New Year's Eve, it was snowing heavily and the wind was howling, blowing against the doors and walls. In this lonely city in the north, my heart seemed to be in the wilderness, walking alone.

However, a gift from afar can easily melt the ice accumulated in the heart.

He suddenly felt a sense of grievance and wanted to tell Nianxi that he missed her, especially these days.

Xie Qiu died.

He was a guard and a partner, and I was the one who harmed him.

He felt very guilty, and the sad mood forced him to make the enemy pay with blood, he wanted Dajing's iron cavalry to trample every inch of Liang State's land, he wanted to cut off the head of every enemy and pay tribute to the souls of all the soldiers who died in the battle.

He is tired too.

I haven't had a good night's sleep for a long time. When I close my eyes, my mind is filled with bloody and cruel scenes.

He said that he would return to her step by step.

But he didn't know that every step was so difficult.

Nianxi, do you know that I miss you very much?

The sun rises and the moon sets, never stopping.

However, there must be many men who are obsessed with such a gentle and good girl. They looked at the letter in the box with reluctance, as if they were homesick, and did not dare to open it to read.

In the vast sea of ​​life, there will always be someone who is the sustenance of your soul.

He had never concealed his passionate love for Nian Xi. He was always afraid that this deep affection would become a burden to her.

But now I regret it.

He shouldn't have suppressed the overwhelming love in his heart that he dared not express directly. He didn't know when he would be able to see her again, and whether he would be able to see her again in this life, so that she would know -

There is someone in this world who loves her so deeply.

Until death.

When Gu Chengye came in, he saw Gu Ci holding a lantern. He was alone in the candlelight, with his head down, and no one knew what he was thinking about.

"Xiaoliu." Gu Chengye called him.

Xie Qiu's death a few days ago was a big blow to him. Gu Chengye didn't want to mention it again during such a big festival, so he pointed at the rabbit lamp in his hand and smiled, "Is this sent by the girl from the Wen family?"

Gu Ci's eyes fell on the lantern and softened again. He responded and then asked, "Father, why did you come here at this time? I don't have an appetite today, so I didn't go."

"We are on the march and fighting, and New Year's Eve is no different from any other day." Gu Chengye waved his hand, "There's not even any wine at this family banquet, not to mention you, I'm too lazy to eat either."

During the war, drinking alcohol was strictly prohibited in the military camps.

Gu Ci curled his lips and chuckled, but said nothing.

Gu Chengye sighed inwardly. Xiaoliu was usually a cheerful person, and it was rare to see him so depressed.

So he said, "Shi Zhang also likes the girl from the Wen family."

He said it with such certainty that Gu Ci immediately raised his head, his eyes slightly downcast, "How did father know?"

Gu Chengye sat down, his tone full of memories, "Back then I fell in love with your mother, and her cousin hated me like hell. Your father has been through this before."

"A daughter from one family is sought after by hundreds of families. The girl from the Wen family, her name is Nianxi, I think she is really good. The boy Shi Zhang is quite a sly person."

Gu Ci couldn't keep silent any longer, "He is so shameless!"

Gu Chengye laughed when he heard this. "How can you be so shameless when it comes to the important matter of marrying a wife? Let me ask you, what would you do if Nianxi married someone else, Pei Jian?"

What Gu Ci fears most is that Nian Xi falls in love with someone else and marries someone else.

In the past, he would have hesitated, but the military camp is the best place to hone a man's blood. Now he would not hesitate at all, "I want to snatch her back."

As long as she still had a little affection for him and was willing to look back at him, he would return to her side and let those clear and moist eyes be filled with his shadow again.

"Then take care of yourself," Gu Chengye walked up and patted him on the shoulder.

The son in front of him was much taller than him. He was the heir of the Gu family and the new generation of war god in the North. "Don't worry about us anymore."

"There are still people in the capital who miss you."

After Gu Chengye left, Gu resigned and became independent for a long time.

It was not until the snow stopped and the wind died down that he put down the lantern he had been holding in his hand and picked up the letter that Nian Xi had sent him.

…

Pei Jian erected a monument without any words on it.

On the New Year's Eve when families reunited, he stood alone on the mountain for a long time.

He brought a wave drum, a slingshot, a bamboo horse and many other toys and placed them in front of the stone tablet.

I thought silently in my heart, "Dad doesn't know whether you are a boy or a girl, nor does he know what you like, so he bought some for you."

"If you have anything else you like, tell Dad in your dreams and I will buy it all for you."

"Where is my mother?"

"Actually, Daddy misses her too, but Mommy doesn't want Daddy anymore. Daddy did something wrong, and she got angry and won't talk to him anymore..."

Pei Jian stared at the stone tablet in front of him, and his eyes suddenly turned red.

Pei Jian was so lucky in the past, he had a wife and a son.

As long as he waits for the baby to be born after ten months of pregnancy, he will have a perfect home.

Like his father and mother, they will live happily together.

But it's all gone.

Nian Xi completely parted ways with him.

Bridges return to bridges, roads return to roads.

After that, they rarely even had the chance to meet each other.

Is she doing well?

Are you happy?

Seems good.

What about him?

Probably will be good.

He has power and status, and many women want to have children for him. Maybe he will meet a silly girl like Nianxi who will bring him happiness.

Pei Jian touched his face, it was cold.

The master said that he had little luck with having descendants.

He doesn't believe it.

He obviously wants to have a family the most.

But unfortunately, he lost the most important person.

The coldness in his heart spread. Loving someone for a long time and caring for him day by day is a matter that requires patience, but at that time, he forgot to look back.

So my child, your mother doesn’t want your father anymore.

Dad has realized his mistake.

Pei Jian covered his face with his hands, wet tears flowing out from between his fingers. He sobbed and almost couldn't speak.

Dad has already realized his mistake.

His Nian Xi, could you forgive him and come back to his side?
