Chapter 73

In front of Ah Yan's desk is a wall of photos of various sizes. They have been there since he was a child, and even after the house was renovated, it remains the same.

From infancy, one month old, one year old... until they were ten years old, the two little kids holding table tennis rackets were accompanied by two younger brothers and sisters. Some group photos included the siblings, but photos of Ayan and Zhu Jue together were still indispensable.

From a babbling baby, a young and ignorant child, to the age to go to school, to the teenage years, to a young teenager, and finally to an adult at the age of eighteen.

In the old photos, there are them sitting on a boat in Beihai Park, there are two of them holding awards at home with unhappy looks, there is Ah Yan in his high school uniform lying on Zhu Jue's back with a big laugh...

At this moment, Gu Jiasui looked at the photo wall of Ah Yan, and felt that he saw the traces of the two of them from childhood to adulthood.

"That's great." She sighed.

If you observe carefully, you can notice that, from childhood to adulthood, even in the photos when they were five or six years old, Ayan and Zhu Jue were always holding hands, and the little boy, who was a head taller than her and had a tense expression, always subconsciously leaned his shoulders and body towards the little girl.

From childhood to adulthood, it is always like this.

Spring flowers, autumn moons, summer heat, and winter cold, all the way of growth is filled with traces of the two of them.

Ah Yan smiled sheepishly, "My parents took pictures of us when I was still young and ignorant. Later, we just took pictures every year. We didn't do it deliberately, but just took a picture from time to time to record the past."

Sometimes when Ah Yan looks at the photo wall, he feels dazed. He always feels that every moment of his childhood is vivid in his mind, but he has grown up without realizing it.

Until now, when Ah Yan mentions our school, my subconscious reaction is still that of high school.

She often feels that she should be a high school student, but is already a college student.

At this moment, Tan Xiaobao was peeking out of A Yan's bedroom door, looking at Gu Jiasui curiously with an expression as if he wanted to gossip.

Ah Yan glanced at her and saw Xiao Bao rubbing her bangs. At this moment, she seemed to be caught and immediately raised her hands.

"Report, sister, my brother said we can come over anytime to prepare dinner."

Ah Yan nodded and called to Sui Sui, "Come back later. Sui Sui, you don't need to put on clothes. We can just wear slippers."

The stairwells of both houses were paved with mats, and one could reach the opposite door in two steps. In the summer, if there were people at home, the doors of both houses would be open, with only curtains hanging, and they could go to the opposite side to eat and play.

At Zhu Jue's house next door, the kitten Pengpeng had been let out of the cat bag and placed on a blanket found at home. It lay obediently on the blanket, and when it saw Gu Jiasui coming over, it immediately moved its paws.

Tan Dabao was stretching out his hand cautiously. He only dared to touch it lightly before retracting his hand, fearing that he would poke the kitten in front of him and cause any harm.

Tan Xiaobao also came over at this time, and in a moment, four people surrounded the little cat Peng Peng.

She only dared to reach out and touch the kitten's paws, but her hands were already itching to do something else.

The little cat Pengpeng looked at the two of them curiously, probably because he had seen many two-legged beasts before and with his parents by his side, his eyes seemed to be shining.

Tan Xiaobao just felt soft in his heart at this moment, "Can I touch it?"

She covered her heart and looked at Gu Jiasui, "Too cute, I can't handle it, how can there be such a cute little cat."

Tan Xiaobao looked at the kitten Peng Peng. One of its eyes was as blue as the ocean, and the other was as orange as a gem. It looked at them as if it could speak.

Gu Jiasui looked at the kitten Peng Peng tenderly and said, "Peng Peng, can you let your brother or sister touch you?"

The pair of charming eyes seemed to be able to speak. It moved its pink little cat paws. Then, Gu Jiasui took the initiative to pull Xiaobao's hand and put it on Pengpeng's body. Xiao Qingnang also signaled Dabao to start.

The twin dragon and pheasant immediately stroked the kitten carefully, and their voices were hushed when they spoke.

"So good, Pengpeng is a good little cat."

"Sister, I only touched Pengpeng for a while. How could there be such a beautiful little cat?"

In their unit, only their first-floor neighbor, Grandma Huang, once had a dog, which served as a guardhouse and was the patron saint of the entire unit.

Because Ayan and Zhu Jue have been aware of their allergies since they were young, and their parents are busy with work, so no matter what kind of pet they bring home, it needs to be accompanied.

Therefore, they have not been exposed to many cats and dogs since they were young. In the past, they would walk around stray cats when they saw them on the Ningbo University campus.

By the time we were in high school, the dog "Huang Jiajiang" from Grandma Huang's family passed away, and from Ayan Zhujue to Dabao and Xiaobao, almost all of them gave up the idea of ​​keeping pets.

Human life span is too long, while theirs is too short. As they were still minors at the time, they were unable to provide adequate companionship. They were still too young to take lifelong responsibility for another life.

From childhood to adulthood, Ayan and Zhu Jue have only raised a dyed chicken (which died within two days), small fish scooped up with a small net in the children's playground (they died because they fed them too much fish food), and a silkworm baby that they were required to raise for school (they looked for oak leaves everywhere to raise the baby, but it turned into a moth and cast a shadow on their lives). They have never raised any other living things.

As for other pets, they once raised a window full of colorful water babies and Tamagotchi pet machines. After having their first child, they took great pains to raise a penguin each for their wedding. In order to pay for the two little penguins' medical treatment, they bought the most expensive wedding rings and did all kinds of "working" for their parents to earn money.

"I really want to raise one." At this moment, Tan Xiaobao is shaking hands with the kitten Peng Peng, with an expression as if he is "cat-crazy" and can't help himself.

"It's a pity that we can't take care of it in the dormitory, and my mother doesn't have much time either, so it's better to just watch the cat online."

"If you raise a child, you will definitely have to hire someone to take care of him. You can't possibly be able to take care of him and accompany him as meticulously as Brother Xiao and Sister Sunsun do every day." Tan Dabao glanced at his sister at this moment.

Tan Xiaobao shook his head sadly: "I was just talking. I can't accompany my child. I have to find someone to take care of the pet. I always feel that this child is not raised by me."

Although the conditions at home are such that one can have a big house specifically for cats and dogs and hire someone to take care of them, which can be considered responsible, but when Tan Xiaobao thought about it, he had a weird feeling in his heart. Why is he so much like those scumbags in TV dramas who only give money but don't come home, and can only give you money but no love?

After sucking cats for a while, they moved from the living room to the dining room. On the square table were an electric copper pot and a soup pot on an induction cooker.

There are two different soup bases, one is sauerkraut copper pot mutton, and the other is a clear water soup base with fresh beef slices.

There was sufficient heating in the room. At this moment, the doors of both houses were closed. Two hot pots were boiling. In the steam, the table tops were covered with bright red and light green colors.

Ah Yan found a spare disposable apron in the drawer. She was originally wearing a normal apron, and now she put another one on.

"Sui Sun, you better get around them, otherwise it's easy to get the sauce."

Ah Yan looked at Gu Jiasui's light grey cashmere base. This color would easily make an ordinary person look dark and old. But when worn by Sui Sui, her skin looked translucently white, without a single flaw. Her cheeks and nose tip were slightly red from the heat, but it looked like natural blush, the best makeup touch on her unpainted, cool face.

She handed the apron to Sui Sui and Xiao Ge, and gave them the center position where they could hold the bottoms of two pots at the same time.

Ah Yan's eyes swept across the dark grey sweater on Xiao Ge. The colours of the two men's clothes, one dark and one light, one deep and one shallow, were extremely suitable for each other and complemented each other.

"Sister, please tie it for me. My hair is not done properly." Tan Xiaobao called out to A Yan.

Ah Yan walked over to clip her hair and tied the plastic apron at the back of her neck. She saw Xiao Bao making eyes at her and turned around to mouth words to her silently.

"Are they a couple? I think so."

Ah Yan stretched out a hand and made a "seal mouth" gesture, then shook his head and said "I don't know" to his lips.

After tying the apron for Xiaobao, she found a pair of bamboo chopsticks and casually put her hair up high. Otherwise, it would be very annoying if her hair fell into the seasoning bowl while eating hot pot later.

In order to take care of the two roommates, Ayan and Juejue sat separately at the dining table, one accompanied Gu Jiasui, and the other sat next to Xiao Qingnang, making it easier to serve Juer.

Ah Yan and Zhu Jue each held an extra-long hot pot chopstick in their hands. "We found these chopsticks at the sea before. They were so useful that we wanted to buy them, but we didn't expect them to be given to us directly."

She watched Sui Sui carefully taking off the bracelet on her hand so that she could eat more conveniently, while Xiao Ge, who was standing next to her, took out a square handkerchief from somewhere and wrapped the bracelet up very naturally and put it away.

Ah Yan silently exchanged glances with Jue Jue and Xiao Bao. Hmm, does this count as eating melon in secret?

More than an hour ago, Ayan and Juejue were still discussing and speculating, but now it's just the live version of eating my friend's gossip. It feels indescribable and exciting.

"Sui Sui, Brother Xiao, you should be used to eating in a copper pot, right? But the one in my house is a modified one. The copper pot is not the traditional plain water. My mother likes to add sauerkraut, so I put the sauerkraut in first as the base flavor." A Yan said.

"If you think the taste is too strong, try the hot pot."

A Yan and Zhu Jue specially prepared two pots because they were concerned about their tastes. Xiao Qingnang is very concerned about health and has a light diet. Gu Jiasui also eats less greasy food for the sake of looking photogenic and maintaining his figure. A hot pot with plain water is very suitable, but since they are in the capital Ningcheng, how can they not eat hot pot meat in a copper pot?

Hot pot is simply the most convenient dinner party, and you don’t really need to consider everyone’s tastes. There are enough ingredients and sauces prepared, so you can always get what everyone wants to eat, and it’s fresh and quick.

They put in some ingredients first and waited for the soup to boil. As the steam rose, Ah Yan happily drank an iced Coke. She looked at Sui Sui drinking barley tea, thought for a moment and said, "Sui Sui, has your show ended? So soon?"

Gu Jiasui nodded and said, "The recordings at the Palace Museum and the official channel are all finished, but I won't leave for the time being. I'm not sure if I need to add any more scenes. Sister Lin Lu and the director's team said there will be other guest appearances."

"In addition to the show, there may be a documentary." She paused.

"Wow! That's great. When will the show be broadcast? Will it be on TV and also on streaming media?" Ah Yan asked.

“It will start broadcasting on the first day of the Lunar New Year and will last until the fifteenth day of the first lunar month. It should be available on the official APP and cooperating streaming media.” Gu Jiasui replied.

"Sister Sunshun, what kind of show is that? Is it the kind that celebrates the Chinese New Year? Did you see other stars?" Tan Xiaobao was very curious about things in the entertainment industry.

"I am in the first episode of "National Treasure Years", and I collaborated with several seniors this time."

"Wow, a national treasure. I get it. It must be about the history of cultural relics. Can you tell me which national treasure it is?" Tan Xiaobao was very interested.

"Sure, the official will release a promotional trailer later. This time, I'm going to show you the 'Handscroll of Zhou Dynasty Emperors' which was donated to the Palace Museum last year." Gu Jiasui looked at Tan Xiaobao, but his eyes were actually on A Yan.

When she said this, Ah Yan was visibly stunned, and then he spoke sincerely: "That's perfect, it suits you very well."

Gu Jiasui's eyes moved slightly. He only mentioned cultural relics and did not say what he did in the show. However, A Yan directly said that it was suitable for him.

"Sister Sunshun, what exactly are you recording in this program?" Tan Dabao was also a little curious.

"It is to reproduce the history carried by these national treasures. The Scroll of Zhou Dynasty Emperors represents three emperors and a princess. People today are filming scenes and stories from the past." Gu Jiasui said in a gentle voice.

"Then I know. I've seen this news before. Sister Suishun, you play the role of Princess Jianing. Ahhhh, I especially liked Princess Jianing when I was studying history. Her Jianing style is so beautiful! We have been practicing calligraphy with the Jianing style as our goal since we were young, right, sister!" Tan Xiaobao became excited at this moment and waved his hands.

A Yan's mouth twitched slightly. Sister, Princess Jianing is right in front of you. Suddenly, I felt a little sweaty.

A Yan looked at Shunshun carefully and found that she was looking at Xiaobao with a smile.

"What about that documentary? Are we going to shoot a documentary for Princess Jianing? I suddenly feel that Princess Jianing has a face, and your image is perfect for her, Sister Sunshun." Tan Xiaobao became more and more excited as he spoke, and A Yan's body gradually tensed up.

"Thank you, Xiaobao sister, for your recognition." Gu Jiasui thanked with a smile like an ordinary artist.

She seemed not to notice Ah Yan's stiffness at the moment, and looked at the pot in front of her, "It seems to be boiling already."

Ah Yan and Zhu Jue immediately stood up and started putting food into several plates with their serving chopsticks.

"Let me see, the meat just needs to be boiled and it's ready, eat quickly." One of them was responsible for the copper pot, and the other was responsible for the hot pot, and they distributed the cooked ingredients to them.

"Sister, don't give it to me, I can do it myself." Dabao shouted first.

"Sister Sui Sui, who played the three great and wise rulers of Zhou Dynasty: Emperor Wen, Emperor Ming and Emperor Zhao? Oh, yes, is there a plot about Jia Ning's consort? They wouldn't just pick some ugly guy, would they?" Tan Xiaobao kept talking.

"Historical records show that the idiot prince consort seemed to be very handsome, but he actually dared to marry the princess..."

Ah Yan used a spoon to scoop out a large ball of beef and meatballs from the hot pot and put them on her plate, then uttered three words.

"Eat quickly!"

Eating can’t stop your mouth!

Although she knew that this was not Xiaobao's fault, it was obviously a case of bringing up something irrelevant. Ah Yan's eyelids twitched.

At the same time, Zhu Jue filled Dabao's plate with sauerkraut and mutton.

"Dabao, you've been talking about wanting to eat sauerkraut hotpot for the past two days. Come on and eat it."

Just in case, seal this one's mouth too.

After Ah Yan and Jue Jue secretly confirmed Gu Jiasui's identity, they carefully checked history books and various papers, and usually tried not to touch on topics related to privacy to avoid hurting others.

Hundreds of years later, people still talk about Princess Jianing, who died young. They mourn her death, praise her talent, lament her life experience, and regret her unhappy marriage.

According to many modern historians, Princess Jianing and her husband hated each other. In just 30 years, she was extremely wealthy for more than a decade, and suffered from depression for more than a decade. Some people say that her talent was due to this unhappy marriage, while others say that if Jianing had lived longer, she would have left behind many more amazing works.

But these are all “ifs” and “supposes”; people always have regrets about history.

Everyone has a past that they don't want to touch upon, and regarding love and illness, these two things may obviously be bombs that make Sui Sui remember the past.

"There is a male artist who plays the role of the princess consort." Gu Jiasui spoke slowly as she watched A'yan and Zhu Jue's movements. Her chopsticks picked up a small ball of wormwood and out of the corner of her eye she saw the wrist of the man next to her was obviously frozen.

"The other party has the reputation of being a pretty boy, and we only have one brief scene together." She said nonchalantly.

There is indeed a big difference between some of today's aesthetics and those of the past. At least in the past, such a thin and weak man was really not pleasing to the eye.

"Pretty boy? Is it that Ling? Or Wei X? Are they handsome in real life? I have a classmate who is obsessed with them. There are posters all over the walls of his dormitory, and every time he scrolls through his friends circle, he sees my brother." Xiaobao said.

"His name is Ling Hong. Is he handsome? Maybe he doesn't really fit my aesthetic taste." Gu Jiasui said.

In today's "entertainment industry", there are indeed so-called movie kings and queens who are superior in appearance and temperament, and with the help of proper modern makeup and skin care, their blooming period is extremely long. But in her opinion, many so-called "stars" are not even as good as her college classmates. It is rare to have one of these qualities: talent, beauty, and moral character.

Thinking of the brief encounters with this man yesterday and the day before, she couldn't help but frown slightly.

Tan Xiaobao was very gossipy: "Sister Sunsun, who do you think is more handsome among these men in the entertainment industry? Without makeup."

When the topic turned to gossip in the entertainment industry, Ah Yan did not continue to stop Xiao Bao. Normally, they would often eat gossip about the entertainment industry in the school dormitory. As the only connection of the 320 girls' dormitory in the entertainment industry, Gu Jiasui was often slower to learn about the gossip than them.

Gu Jiasui hummed, "Aesthetics is personal. I've seen actor Chen and actor Zhao, both of whom have outstanding facial features, and they meet the general standard of handsome men."

"These two are indeed handsome." Ah Yan couldn't help but speak.

Gu Jiasui mentioned two male artists. One is a typical tough guy with thick eyebrows and big eyes. He has been popular among mothers and is now popular among people of all ages. The other is a gentleman with mixed ethnicity and deep and exquisite facial features. He can be said to be a recognized handsome guy.

They ate hot pot and chatted about gossips about handsome men and beautiful women. Although Dabao and Xiaobao only got a little bit of gossip, they were very satisfied.

After all, it's secret information, and there's no way for others to know it.

After lunch, the girls played with the cat Peng Peng in the living room, while Zhu Jue made tea at the tea table in the living room.

Dabao was lying on a single-seat sofa, with Xiao Qingnang holding his head to straighten his bones, and he made sounds of pain.

"Ah~ Brother, sister, it hurts, it hurts!!!"

Considering that there were still a large number of elders in their family waiting to see the doctor tonight, Ayan and Zhu Jue took out the best tea in their home.

The tea that I had taken from Lu Chen in the Plane Convenience Store had already been given to the elders, and now there was only enough left for two times.

Gu Jiasui looked at the tea leaves that Zhu Jue was weighing. He put them in a covered bowl, and A Yan took it and smelled it.

"Shunshun, do you want to smell it?" she asked.

Gu Jiasui nodded. She looked carefully at the tea leaves in the celadon bowl that had not yet been filled with water, and her eyes moved.

She pursed her lips subconsciously, but refrained from speaking. She just watched Zhu Jue pour water to wash the tea.

Hot water was poured over the cups and tea sets, and after the tea was washed, the fragrance of tea filled the air, and Gu Jiasui smelled the fragrance of tea in his memory.

Her eyelashes trembled slightly, and after drinking the first two cups of tea, she felt the lingering sweetness and tea aroma in her throat.

This is the Snow Mountain Silver Needle tea that was specially supplied to the royal family of the Zhou Dynasty. There is no mistake. Even the emperor, his uncle, and his cousin had to drink it sparingly. It was a tea that was only produced once a year, and she had been drinking it for many years.

The silver needles picked for the first time in spring have extremely demanding growing conditions, but every year they are delivered to Beijing with the spring, and people always look forward to this moment during the harsh winter.

The arrival of Snow Mountain Tea means the arrival of spring. Every time Beijing receives this year's Snow Mountain Tea, it feels very good because another spring has arrived.

"This tea tastes great. Can I buy some more?" she asked.

Xiao Qingnang was looking at her at this moment. He could tell that the tea tasted very good, but there seemed to be something else behind her words.

Hearing what Suishun said, Ah Yan looked regretful.

"No more. I got this from a friend. He didn't have much himself, so he gave us only one or two."

"Is that so?" Gu Jiasui nodded.

She didn't ask any more questions, but just continued to taste it.

The same tea tree, even if it is a thousand-year-old mother tree, will have a different flavor every year due to the accumulation of years, and the longer the time, the more fragrant it will naturally become.

After five or six cups of tea, the tea has reached its best taste.

Drinking the familiar taste in his memory, Gu Jiasui couldn't help but squint his eyes.

Silver Needle Tea is classified as white tea according to today's classification. Drinking too much of it can make you hungry. You can drink some cakes and snacks with the tea, play with cats, watch TV, and chat for the whole afternoon, and the time will pass.

When the adults returned home at night, Xiao Qingnang took the pulses of the patients one by one in the room, wrote down prescriptions carefully, or performed acupuncture on the spot.

Xiao Qingnang took a deep breath and described the subtle symptoms one by one. The three mothers looked at him with increasingly heated eyes.

"Xiaoqing, you are absolutely right." Yu Feiwan slammed the table excitedly.

"I hope your uncle's medicine won't be so bitter, or he'll have to compensate himself with candy."

Ah Yan couldn't complain about his mother giving Xiao Ge the nickname "Xiao Qing", but he was also very glad that he got Xiao Ge in time, because his parents, uncles and aunts all had sub-health problems common to people of their age.

It was Aunt Tan and A Yan who noticed that Brother Xiao carefully considered every word of the prescription he wrote.

By the time Xiao Qingnang and Gu Jiasui were about to leave, it was already eight o'clock after dinner. If they had not strongly objected, the enthusiastic mother A-Yan would have driven them home and taken a car full of stuff with her.

At the gate of their residential community, Xiao Qingnang, holding the cat bag, and Gu Jiasui got into her car in Beijing, and they both breathed a sigh of relief.

"Ayan's mother is so enthusiastic." Xiao Qingnang said.

Gu Jiasui nodded, "Their personalities are indeed different."

The driver's cab and the back seat of the car they were riding in were separated, so they didn't have to worry about the person in front hearing what was being said behind them.

"Have you seen the photos of Ayan and Zhu Jue?" she asked.

"I saw it. It's on Zhu Jue's desk." Xiao Qingnang said softly.

The cat's mouth was open, and the kitten Peng Peng was peeking at the outside world in a strange posture.

"Is there something wrong with the tea?" he asked.

"It's a tea that my cousins, my aunt, my uncle, and my mother all liked very much in the past."

Hearing her answer, Xiao Qingnang's eyebrows jumped.

"You mean, Ayan and the others deliberately brought out this tea?"

Gu Jiasui shook her head at this moment, and she said in a low voice: "No."

"Even if this tea was once given away as a gift, it was in extremely limited supply. But what I know is that before my cousin succeeded to the throne, he didn't even have any to drink for a year. He seemed to have bought a lot of things from a mysterious businessman, including Western timepieces, glass mirrors, and a recipe I don't know. They were all in my cousin's private vault. Later, a lot of the military funds for the court's foreign wars came from the money earned from this."

"Nowadays, there is a legend in unofficial history that Emperor Ming was rewarded by immortals. There was a record in official history that Emperor Ming mentioned in his later years that he met a strange man when he was young and benefited a lot from it." Xiao Qingnang's heart was not at peace either.

"That's right." Gu Jiasui looked at him, and both of them were emotionally upset.

"Maybe they didn't know what the tea was like, they just thought it was good and brought it out," she said in confusion.

"The tea was given by a friend, and the fan was bought from a friend." Xiao Qingnang had a helpless look on his face.

Gu Jiasui obviously understood what he meant at the first moment, and was a little amused: "These two people are so perfunctory even in finding a reason."

"If I ask Ah Yan where her magic cup, clothes and fan came from, I'm afraid they must have come from her friends."

As we all know, when people talk about "my friend", they usually refer to themselves.

Even if there really is such a so-called "friend", this friend appeared hundreds of years ago, and is also a friend of Ayan and Zhu Jue today.

What is the difference between the identities of the young couple, Yan and Zhu, and the legendary "friend" who is only heard of but never seen?

"Now it seems that they are not immortal, nor are they like you and me. They seem to be reincarnated. In legends and strange stories, gods often come down to earth to overcome tribulations, life after life." Gu Jiasui thought of the plots of TV dramas that are very popular in the world today.

In the past, I thought that they were just some anecdotes and rural anecdotes that were passed down and processed into stories by modern people. But now that I think about it, I actually feel that this may not be impossible.

"They were both born on the same day of the same month of the same year, with the same birthday," said Xiao Qingnang.

They were both very clear about this. They had confirmed it when they were looking through Ah Yan and Zhu Jue's Moments together. Even the minute of birth was exactly the same in the two birth certificates.

"It seemed like they were born to be together." Gu Jiasui recalled the photos of the young couple.

Xiao Qingnang was thinking about the appearance of these two people at this moment. He curled his lips and said, "If there is really such a thing as reincarnation and overcoming tribulations, could it be that they are overcoming the tribulation of love?"

Gu Jiasui stared at him and said slowly, "I think it makes sense."

...

A Yan and Zhu Jue sent Sui Sui and Xiao Ge away, and were then dragged aside by their mother to gossip about the two young people before being let go.

When people reach middle age, they either avoid illness and doctors, or work hard to maintain good health. Fortunately, the elders of the Yan and Zhu families belong to the latter. Dabao and Xiaobao have returned home to study the prescriptions and questions that Brother Xiao wrote for Aunt Tan. The adults continue to chat together, and Ah Yan is now lying on the sofa with his arms and legs spread out.

She looked at the message on her phone, "Yizhi asked me for my address and said he wanted to send me some fruit for the New Year."

"Well, Chinese New Year is only ten days away."

"Huh?" Ah Yan suddenly jumped up from the sofa.

Zhu Jue was cleaning the tea table at the moment, and he was immediately certain when he saw her actions.

"What's wrong?"

Ah Yan was bewildered. "Xie Zhen, oh no, it should be Lan Ruo, asking me if he can meet her?"

How come this hotly searched couple with soul-transferring experiences suddenly contacted me?

"Jiaojiao asked me when I was going shopping, how come Dingling also sent me a message!"

Ah Yan scratched his hair as he looked at the message on his phone, "We go through this day after day, one after another. How is this different from overcoming the tribulation?"

"Tang Sanzang only needs to go through 81 trials!"

Ah Yan took a deep breath. It took Tang Monk eighty-one trials to obtain Buddhist scriptures. It's impossible that she had to encounter eighty-one halo people in her life as well, right?
