The sun rises in the east, and purple clouds gather from the east—
As the morning light rises and we bask in its warmth, we see new hope.
Gu Liyan's eyes flickered along with the array outside the door. He looked up and saw that the devilishly handsome fellow had returned, still the same young man—
Mo Chen looked at Gu Liyan with a smile: "You seem to have missed me a lot after not seeing me for a night!"
Gu Liyan smiled slightly, said nothing, and poured a cup of black tea, handing it over.
Mo Chen smiled and took the tea, looking at the steaming black tea in his hand. He took a small sip; the tea had lost its original flavor, clearly having been diluted countless times, but the warmth remained.
Looking at Gu Liyan, Mo Chen couldn't help but smile wryly, "How long have you been waiting here? You've even drunk the tea until it's just water!"
“I drank tea all night, and I saw through the bitterness of a lifetime.” Gu Liyan said calmly, “Having tasted all the joys and sorrows of this world, I feel that everything has become insignificant.”
Mo Chen looked at Gu Liyan with surprise, his soul power inexplicably becoming stronger. "It seems that this night has given you some insights."
Gu Liyan stood up, looked at Mo Chen with a serious expression, and said, "Mo Chen, after this is over, let's end our contract here!"
Mo Chen opened his mouth as if to say something, but kept it to himself.
He wanted to break the contract and stop being a companion, which was what he and Mo Hua had said. This was indeed what he wanted, but it was not his true intention!
Gu Liyan looked at Mo Chen in silence, then softly said, "I think this is how you should think..."
Mo Chen frowned slightly, raised his head and looked at Gu Liyan. For some reason, those clear purple eyes had become as clear as Yan Ligu's overnight, as if they could see through people's hearts!
Even though his thoughts had been exposed, and even though he had acted according to his initial intentions, Mo Chen was inexplicably displeased.
"Gu Liyan! Do you think you know me well enough? Or do you think I can be at your beck and call? A contract that can accompany you for life when needed, and can be thrown away at will when not needed!"
Gu Liyan looked at him with a puzzled expression, but didn't say anything.
"Ha, right, you have followers now. Jin Yi knows medicine, so you can rely on him completely. I'll only cause you trouble; you don't need me at all!"
Mo Chen excitedly asked, "Am I already dispensable?"
"What are you saying? I don't understand," Gu Liyan said, frowning.
As the sun rose in the east, his Painter's Eye evolved to its fifth level. Unexpectedly, he could see through to the other side of this world and see and hear the conversation between Mo Chen and Mo Hua.
He will eventually leave—
Then let's grant their wish!
Gu Liyan would never force others to do things they didn't want to do or couldn't do!
"Isn't this what you wanted?" Gu Liyan lowered his eyes slightly and spoke softly.
Mo Chen took a deep breath and looked at Gu Liyan. "Don't think you know me well. You don't understand anything at all!"
Gu Liyan was slightly taken aback. Seeing the anger in Mo Chen's eyes, he understood what was happening. He then lowered his head and said apologetically, "I'm sorry, I should have asked for your opinion first..."
"Enough! Gu Liyan, you shouldn't be so cowardly in front of me!" Mo Chen was furious when he saw Gu Liyan's submissive attitude.
The person he wanted to help wasn't Gu Liyan, but the responsible Yan Ligu!
He never bowed his head.
He always kept his back straight.
Even if he is wrong, he will not bow his head and apologize to him!
The person in front of me is definitely not Yan Ligu.
—Not his guiding light!
Mo Chen gave Gu Liyan a deep look and said coldly, "Don't... make me look down on you!"
If I were to give up even my guiding light...
How can I face the afterlife...?
Mo Chen stormed off in a huff, leaving Gu Liyan somewhat bewildered.
Gu Liyan murmured to himself, "I was just getting a little sleepy while waiting for you. You say I don't understand you, but what do you understand about me..."
Gu Liyan withdrew her gaze, looked at the cup of tea that Mo Chen hadn't touched, and sighed softly, "See, you didn't understand anything..."
You share my joys and sorrows
Can you really share my suffering?
Gu Liyan gave a wry smile; the road ahead was uncertain.
——
Mo Chen returned to his room, closed the door, and cursed irritably:
"What on earth is that cunning fox Gu Liyan thinking? He clearly knows that Mo Hua injured him, so why doesn't he say anything? Does he really not care about being injured? Logically speaking, how could a nine-tailed fox, with such a noble status, not care about an enemy who hurts their skin?"
"Could it be because of me? But I don't have that much influence..." Mo Chen frowned, completely baffled, and suddenly felt a surge of frustration. "Damn fox! What is he thinking?!"
Just then, a familiar voice came from the bed behind me:
"Do I even need to ask, brother? Brother Gu wants to help you and that woman get together! It's that simple, I can see it all too well." Wu Wenfeng, hugging his pillow, looked sleepily at the person who had wandered into the wrong room...
Mo Chen was taken aback, looking at Wu Wenfeng lying on the bed, and finally realized that the room was not quite the same as the furnishings he liked...
Adding to the fact that there was a shirtless boy on the bed wearing only his underwear, he finally realized that he had entered the wrong room!
His face immediately darkened, and he pointed to the door, shouting, "Get out!"
Wu Wenfeng looked embarrassed and cautiously began, "Big brother, this...this seems to be my room..."
