"What are you doing?" Shen Qingli exclaimed softly.

"If you're tired, I'll carry you." Zhou Yubai said confidently.
Gou Wa immediately agreed, "Yes, Dad, Mom is exhausted. She gave Uncle Zhuzi acupuncture for an hour and her face turned pale from exhaustion."
"Mom, don't be embarrassed. It's so late and our house is at the foot of the mountain. We won't meet anyone else. I'll go back first. Dad and mom can walk slowly." Gou Wa did not forget to comfort Shen Qingli with a few words. After he finished speaking, he ran ahead.
Shen Qingli wanted to hide her face. It felt so strange for an adult like her to be comforted by a child.
"Ruirui is right." Zhou Yubai lowered his head and spoke into Shen Qingli's ear.
Shen Qingli: Just talk, why are you getting so close?
My face felt hot.
Shen Qingli raised her eyes, and her lips felt hot again.
A dragonfly skims the water.
Zhou Yubai's steps were steady and fast.
"Yubai, you've learned bad things."
"Yeah, I learned it from you." Zhou Yubai said in a low voice.
In the dark night, with the person she likes and the teasing words, Shen Qingli's face turned red and she was as beautiful as a flower.
Zhou Yubai just wanted to get home as soon as possible, and then...
"Ali, what's going on?" a familiar voice sounded.
The moment of beauty was instantly broken.
Shen Qingli subconsciously straightened her body and jumped out of Zhou Yubai's arms.
"Brother Qi Chuan."
"What's wrong?" Gu Qichuan walked a few steps to Shen Qingli and asked with concern.
"It's okay, I'm just a little tired." Shen Qingli said in a low voice.
"Are you really okay? Not injured?" Gu Qichuan looked at her carefully with concern. He was relieved to make sure that Shen Qingli looked fine except for a little blushing. Then he glanced at Zhou Yubai.
"Brother Qi Chuan, why are you out so late at night?" Shen Qingli asked.
"I couldn't sleep, so I came out for a walk. They were too noisy." Gu Qichuan lowered his voice, "We talked while walking."
"Okay." Shen Qingli responded and walked side by side with Gu Qichuan.
Zhou Yubai followed Shen Qingli's side and reached out to hold Shen Qingli's little hand without leaving any trace.
Shen Qingli immediately returned the handshake, giving her man a sense of security.
"We, the new educated youth, don't get along well with the old educated youth. We often quarrel. Otherwise, I wouldn't come out to build a house." Gu Qichuan said, "It's worse these days. I haven't had good sleep in the past two years. I can't fall asleep if there's any noise. So I just came out. Now the weather is not cold, I can just find a place to sleep."
Shen Qingli looked at Gu Qichuan, who had obviously lost a lot of weight, and felt deeply sad.
She knew that it was her original body's emotions that were causing the problem.
The original body should have liked Gu Qichuan very much. They were childhood sweethearts and had a strong feeling for each other. With a family like Gu Qichuan's, he could have stayed in the countryside, but he still came to Kaoshantun.
In the letter she received before her original body died, Gu Qichuan asked her to wait for him.
In fact, the original body did wait, but unfortunately, she died.
Zhou Yubai noticed Shen Qingli's emotional ups and downs, and his heart was instantly filled with uneasiness. He subconsciously held Shen Qingli's hand tightly.
"I'll prescribe some medicine for you. Lack of sleep can easily make you sick." Shen Qingli said in a low voice.
"Well, since you left the capital, Master Huo has said more than once that he has never had another disciple as obedient and intelligent as you." Gu Qichuan glanced at Shen Qingli and recalled the days when Shen Qingli studied with Doctor Huo.
At that time, he picked her up on a bicycle.
She always grabbed his collar.
He really thought that they would have a lifetime...
“I miss my teacher too.”
"Write him a letter when you have time. Mr. Huo is very worried about you." Gu Qichuan paused for a moment, then looked up and saw the courtyard. "Now that you've arrived, I'll take a look around."
After saying this, Gu Qichuan turned around and was about to leave.
"If you have no place to live, there is an empty room in my house," Zhou Yubai said.
Shen Qingli looked up at Zhou Yubai in surprise. He...actually let his love rival live in his house?
Gu Qichuan paused and turned around, "Then I won't be polite with you. I really need a place to have a good sleep."
"Well, since you are going to build a house anyway, why don't you come and live here for a few days?" Zhou Yubai continued.
Shen Qingli took Zhou Yubai's hand and tightened it subconsciously.
"Okay. Thank you." Gu Qichuan and Zhou Yubai walked into the courtyard.
Gou Wa arrived home first. Xiao Hei had already come out of the room and was walking around in the yard with Da Huang. When they saw the stranger coming into the house, they immediately became alert.
"Da Huang and Xiao Hei, these are guests of our home. They have been staying at home recently." Zhou Yubai said to the two big ones.
The two big ones barked twice to show that they understood, and then went back to their nests.
There are three rooms in the courtyard. Shen Qingli and Zhou Yubai live in one of the two main rooms, Gou Wa and Niu Niu live in another, and there is a side room that is unoccupied and contains some of Zhou Yubai's previous things.
"Qingli, find a bed and quilt." Zhou Yubai said to Shen Qingli.
"Okay." Shen Qingli took out a quilt and Gu Qichuan stepped forward to take it.
"I can do it myself. You don't look well. Go wash up and have a rest first." Gu Qichuan said with concern.
Shen Qingli nodded.
Zhou Yubai and Gu Qichuan cleaned up the side room together and helped him make the bed. After seeing that he had made the bed, they prepared to go back to sleep.
"Zhou Yubai."
Zhou Yubai stopped and looked at Gu Qichuan.
"Ali is a good girl, a very good girl." Gu Qichuan said after a while.
"I know." Zhou Yubai glanced at Gu Qichuan, then strode back to the room.
Gu Qichuan looked at the closed door, feeling indescribable emotions in his heart. He recalled too many past events tonight, and the more he thought about it, the more his heart ached.
He didn't understand why his Ah Li could let go so easily and choose Zhou Yubai so firmly.
He doesn't understand.
Obviously they have so many memories and so much time.
He also didn't understand why he lost to Zhou Yubai.
Zhou Yubai was obviously at a disadvantage in every aspect, but he won himself and made Ali stand firmly by his side.
At the beginning, Gu Qichuan was still deceiving himself and thinking that Shen Qingli had no choice but to do so. However, the look Shen Qingli gave Zhou Yubai could not deceive anyone.
He couldn't fool himself...
After all, he missed out on...a lifetime of happiness.
If he had known this would happen, he would have pursued her at all costs, but there are no ifs in this world...
When Zhou Yubai returned to the room, Shen Qingli was sitting on the edge of the bed soaking her feet. She had rolled up her trouser legs.
Zhou Yubai saw at a glance that there was a bruise on Shen Qingli's calf.
"Was it the one you bumped into at Zhuzi's house?" Zhou Yubai felt so distressed that he lifted up Shen Qingli's leg with one hand and examined it carefully.
"Yeah, it hurts." Shen Qingli said in a low voice.
"I'll apply some medicine for you." Zhou Yubai said as he was about to get the medicine, but Shen Qingli grabbed his arm.
"If you blow on it, it won't hurt anymore." Shen Qingli leaned back and looked at Zhou Yubai with a frown.
Zhou Yubai lowered his head and blew gently on her porcelain-white calves, then pressed his whole body on her, "Qingli, I'm... scared."
