After this short stop to rest, it was soon time to set off again.
On the big ship, Chen Yao was lying bored on a wooden bed covered with several layers of cushions, listening to Xichun reading a storybook to her.
Yuezhu was fanning her with a fan to provide her with cool breeze.
After finishing reading a story, Chen Yao asked them to take a break first, as they still had a long journey ahead and there was plenty of time.
"Oh, Miss, when I was thirsty last night and wanted to drink some water, I heard some noise outside, so I went out to see..." Yue Zhu paused halfway through her words before continuing, "I saw that Guard Mo Chuan didn't sleep for some reason at night. He stood on the deck, staring at the bright moon in the sky, lost in thought. I don't know what he was thinking about."
Hearing this, Chen Yao subconsciously wondered if he had recovered some of his memories, otherwise he would not be so abnormal.
What would happen if... he recovered his memory now?
Will he turn back halfway and go directly back to Chang'an City?
Or will you follow her through this trip to Jiangnan and then go back together?
But in the end, no matter what he wants, she will choose to respect his ideas.
What's more, she is actually looking forward to what he will look like after he recovers his memory.
While I was thinking, I heard Qi Yunxiao knocking on the door and asking for instructions. It was such a coincidence that he arrived just as I mentioned him.
"Come in directly." Chen Yao asked Yuezhu to open the door, then raised her hand and let Xichun help her get up from the couch.
After seeing Qi Yunxiao's expression and posture that were obviously different from before, Chen Yao narrowed her eyes slightly, thinking to herself that if this was true, he must have recovered some of his memory at this time.
"Xichun, Yuezhu, you guys go out first. Mochuan may have something he wants to say to me alone." She pursed her lips.
Because Yuezhu had just mentioned Mochuan's abnormality, Xichun and Yuezhu cooperated well without any hesitation. They even closed the door considerately after going out, but to be on the safe side, they still stayed not far away outside.
The room became quiet. Chen Yao looked up at Qi Yunxiao and asked him to sit down and talk slowly while drinking tea.
As he spoke, he subconsciously raised his hand to pour tea.
Qi Yunxiao's expression was unclear, and he only said in a low voice: "Let me do it."
Chen Yao said nothing, just put down her hand and let him come.
For a moment, the only sound in the room was the sound of tea being poured into teacups.
After they each took a sip of tea, the moment they put down their teacups, Qi Yunxiao slowly spoke:
"Thank you for saving my life before. I promised you that I will fulfill my promise one day."
Hearing this, Chen Yao only looked up at him nonchalantly, and said with an ambiguous tone: "Why are you being so polite? Did you come to me just to talk about this?"
Qi Yunxiao: "I... remembered some things from the past. Although there are only some fragments and they can't be connected, I always feel that it will be soon."
Chen Yao: "So now you... want to say goodbye in advance?"
Qi Yunxiao: "No."
Chen Yao: "What?"
Qi Yunxiao: "I won't say goodbye now. The reason I want to tell you this is because the first fragment I recall is when I was killed..."
