A hint of bitterness flashed across Gu Nanzhi's eyes. He did not continue the conversation and stiffly changed the subject.
After dinner.
The two of them admired the night view in the courtyard for a while.
When she returned to the bedroom again, Gu Nanzhi was picked up before she could react...
It is still the same carved step-out bed.
Exquisite like a work of art.
But this time, Gu Nanzhi saw the entire artwork from top to bottom more comprehensively!
After a long time.
Dawn glimmers.
Gu Nanzhi curled up tiredly in the quilt, and was rude to the man behind her who had no mercy on women.
"I was wrong! Next time I'll be more careful..."
"Next time? Do you want a next time?"
"Do you dare to say there won't be a next time?"
“…”
Gu Nanzhi didn't dare to say it.
Because she knew why Xie Zhenting was so crazy, it was because she might be leaving soon...
Not to mention him, even she chose to indulge herself when she thought of this!
But……
Some things really take a lot of energy!
so……
"I'm not leaving so fast. Next time...can you not be so hungry?"
Xie Zhenting was silent.
"Not that fast, how fast?"
Hearing the man's voice behind her, Gu Nanzhi sighed, turned around and hugged him back, and explained to him in a low voice: "I am still missing a very important thing, which is a time-space shuttle..."
"Xie Zhenting, I'm not a fairy from heaven. I'm actually just a visitor from another world. This involves time, space and dimensions. I don't know how to explain it to you. You can just assume that I came from the future, and that the shuttle is the tool that allowed me to travel through time..."
"Now that tool has a problem, the stability maintenance program that should have been running continuously has a problem, so my existence in your world has become a hidden danger that threatens the stability of your world!"
"I... can now see the world that you see with your eyes, you know? In a sense, the space between us has cracked and collapsed. This is one of the signs of the collapse of the plane, so..."
"I dare not stay here any longer. If I continue, not only will I die here, but the whole world will be buried with me!"
"I need to find the shuttle, restart its drives, and then...get it out of here!"
“…”
Gu Nanzhi's voice was low.
He held her hands tightly.
Xie Zhenting listened to her silently, and his expression changed when he heard her say that she would die here.
"Then let's go!"
Finally, Xie Zhenting said: "I will help you find your so-called shuttle and send you away!"
Upon hearing this, Gu Nanzhi's eyes couldn't help but turn red.
She nodded with difficulty in his arms and said, "Okay!"
She didn't want to ask whether Xie Zhenting said so straightforwardly that he wanted to send her away because he was afraid that he would die in this world, or because he was afraid that this plane would be implicated by her, or both, but...
Hearing from the mouth of the man she had entrusted her life to, Gu Nanzhi felt inexplicably sad about the separation!
That kind of heart-wrenching sadness described in the poems!
"Xie Zhenting..."
Gu Nanzhi couldn't help but call out.
"Um?"
"If I could, if I could stay here for a long time, I would rather give up going back and stay by your side forever!"
Xie Zhenting: “!!!”
The usually handsome and cold face resting on Gu Nanzhi's head had red eyes for the first time.
"I know!"
He said so.
He knew, he knew that she was not a casual woman!
He knew that since she was willing to marry him, she really liked him and liked him as much as he liked her!
Although……
It was difficult for him to accept her leaving, but...
It was a matter of life and death for her, he had no choice!
If this is the only way for her to continue living, then he would rather let go and send her away!
but……
Xie Zhenting's attention was quickly drawn to another point in her words.
"You just said that you can see the world as I see it, so... is that why you... kept your eyes open?"
Thinking of Gu Nanzhi's big watery eyes that were kept open when they were intimate, Xie Zhenting felt a little embarrassed.
God knows, he stretched out his hand several times, wanting Gu Nanzhi to close her eyes, but Gu Nanzhi stubbornly kept her eyes open...
We are all newbies...
She was so frank that it made him feel like a young wife, a little shy...
"Um!"
Gu Nanzhi nodded awkwardly: "Believe me, seeing myself like that is really worse than seeing you..."
With her eyes open, she saw his image...
But when she closed her eyes, she saw herself in Xie Zhenting's eyes...
Gu Nanzhi...
I can't stand it!
I really can't stand it!
Xie Zhenting heard: "..."
He stopped talking immediately.
After a while, he hugged her tighter and said in a humming voice, "Then I'll be generous this time. You can watch whatever you want in the future!"
Gu Nanzhi: “!!!”
I didn’t feel embarrassed at first!
I felt inexplicably embarrassed by what he said!
and……
It’s proven!
What men say cannot be trusted.
The second day.
Gu Nanzhi still didn't go to the research institute.
Xie Zhenting stayed with her at home. When Gu Nanzhi was tired of organizing the materials, she would go for a walk in the courtyard with him and watch him tidy up the garden and feed the koi.
Then Gu Nanzhi moved a stool, sat at the kitchen door, and watched Xie Zhenting cook.
After dinner, we drank tea together and chatted about everything under the sun...
Xie Zhenting told her about the places he had been to and the wars and conflicts he had encountered.
Gu Nanzhi told him about her past world, the stars and the universe...
That night, Xie Zhenting was really gentle and considerate to the woman and did nothing.
Day 3.
He accompanied Gu Nanzhi to the research institute, and after handing over some scientific research teaching plans to Yu Dongchuan, the two drove away without waiting for Grandpa Gu and Grandpa Liu to come and arrest them.
But that night, Xie Zhenting was not so honest...
At the critical moment, he was able to find the time to tease Gu Nanzhi and make her close her eyes...
Gu Nanzhi: “!!!”
A total embarrassment!
Unable to escape his big hand that was stirring up trouble, she began to cover his eyes.
Anyway...
He couldn't see it, even if she closed her eyes!
The two of them...
Let’s smear it together!
But soon, Gu Nanzhi discovered...
It seems that smearing won’t work!
Because people are in the dark, their other senses will be infinitely magnified!
Gu Nanzhi couldn't bear it and wanted to let go of her hand, but...
Xie Zhenting was unwilling again!
The two people who have always been calm and composed actually had a bit more joy in their boudoir because of the bug caused by the collapse of time and space. This was something Gu Nanzhi had never expected!
The two of them spent three days relaxing together in the courtyard.
Day 4.
Gu Nanzhi returned to the research institute, and Xie Zhenting...
After sending her to the institute, I drove directly to the train station.
His wife told him that the time-space shuttle might be in the mountains of his ancestral home. The exploration personnel sent by the organization had searched for more than two years in the mountains but found nothing. As this matter concerned Gu Nanzhi's life and death, Xie Zhenting did not dare to place his hopes on anyone...
