The ripples of the Grand Master's emotions had a huge aftereffect.
Li Wei hurried all the way until she returned to her new home, and only then did she manage to suppress the tears that were welling up in her eyes.
However, that heavy depression, like a cancer attached to the bone, always lingers in my heart and cannot be shaken off.
She kicked off her embroidered shoes and lay back on the bed.
He pulled the bright red quilt over and covered his head with it, not moving for a long time.
Gu Yan, who was guarding outside the door, saw her like this. Although she didn't understand why, she still considerately closed the door for Li Wei.
He stood outside like a door god, ready to receive orders at any time.
During this time, Gu Yan asked her through the door if she wanted to have breakfast, but Li Wei chose to pretend to be dead.
It was not until the sun was high in the sky and approaching noon that Li Wei's mood slowly calmed down.
But she didn't want to stay in this old house anymore.
Every blade of grass, every brick and tile here seemed to be soaked in stories, hiding sadness, and constantly stinging her.
Li Wei urged Gu Yan, declined the housekeeper's invitation to have lunch at the old house, and returned directly to Gu Garden.
When she went up to the second floor, she found that the second bedroom where she originally lived had been cleared out, and all the clothes and belongings had been moved to the master bedroom by the servants.
The second bedroom had become a large storage room, filled with all kinds of dowries and gifts sent by the Jiang family.
Seeing this, Li Wei didn't act pretentiously and went straight into the room that originally belonged to Gu Jinzhi.
After taking a look around the place, which she had only been to once, she was extremely pleased with the style and layout.
Interestingly, she also saw a half-person-high solid wood cylindrical display stand in the corner of the room.
It is covered with a dust-proof glass cover and has a soft top light.
As for what's on display...
It turned out to be the "orange" she had picked up by chance in the Upside-Down Domain and mischievously gave to Gu Jinzhi...
When she saw this thing, she burst out laughing.
I was just about to complain in my heart that Old Gu is such a filial son.
But at this moment, the sadness that had been forcibly suppressed before surged out again like a tide.
She suddenly covered her chest, her body swayed, she staggered back two steps, and fell onto the chaise longue next to her.
In the bedroom, Gu Yan, who was helping Li Wei put away her personal belongings, was shocked when she saw this scene and hurried over.
"Young Madam, what's wrong with you? You look so bad, do you want to contact the Young Master?"
Li Wei suppressed the grief that almost tore her heart apart and waved at Gu Yan.
"It's okay, you go out first, I want to be alone for a while."
Gu Yan looked at her worriedly for a few times, but still obediently retreated and closed the door.
The bedroom returned to silence, and even the chirping of insects and birds outside the window seemed to have disappeared.
But the quieter it was, the more uncomfortable Li Wei felt.
The tears that I had forced myself to hold back in the old house this morning finally found an outlet and flowed down my cheeks, unable to be stopped no matter what.
In a trance, Gu Jinzhi's lonely and desolate figure last night kept flashing in her mind.
What’s wrong with me? She kept asking herself.
After seeing her true self, Li Wei couldn't control her emotions for the first time.
Want to suppress it by force...
But the more you suppress it, the more painful it becomes.
She simply opened her heart and let the sadness flow freely.
But deep down in her heart, she always remains clear-headed.
Like a bystander, observing and analyzing.
Gradually, she understood.
This emotion was somewhat similar to the one she had felt when she first traveled through time and Li Cheng was seriously ill and dying, with nowhere to turn to.
It's just that the degree is deeper and more desperate.
It’s as if it’s not about to be lost, but has already been lost.
"But everyone I know is alive and well. I haven't lost anyone, so why am I feeling so bad?"
[Or is it that the Grand Master's influence on me hasn't ended yet?]
Thinking of the "orange" that had just caused her emotions, Li Wei's little face wrinkled.
[Could it be that I am afraid of losing Gu Jinzhi? ]
[Tsk, are you kidding me...]
[NND, this feeling is too torturous, I can't bear it at all.]
She gritted her teeth.
[This is a selfish decision. If everyone is destined to die, I must be ahead of everyone else...]
[Whether it's Li Cheng, Grandma Jiang, or... Gu Jinzhi... no one can expect to die faster than me...]
After more than ten minutes, Li Wei finally controlled her sadness in an alternative way.
......
After a while, Gu Yan knocked on the door again and asked Li Wei if she wanted to have lunch.
Li Wei looked at the time and it was already two o'clock in the afternoon.
Counting it up, I haven't eaten three meals: last night, this morning, and even lunch. My stomach is really hungry.
So, she put all distracting thoughts behind her, got up to wash her face, pulled the corners of her mouth in front of the mirror to make herself look less depressed, and then went downstairs to eat.
......
This pattern of eating and sleeping, and sleeping and eating, went on for two days.
During the two days, except for occasionally seeing Liang Qiushi at mealtime, the rest of the Gu family seemed to have disappeared collectively.
Anyway, Li Wei rolled around on the big bed in the master bedroom of the small building for two nights and didn't even see the shadow of Gu Jinzhi.
I occasionally strolled in the garden, but I never saw Gu Shiheng and the two little ones.
These days when I can't go to the rift to kill monsters and have no motivation to practice are really exhausting.
