Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
Old Master Gu was sick. As his biological grandson, Gu Shen could not leave that night, he stayed with Yan Xi for the night.
Since the two of them were married, it was only natural for them to be in the same room.
Yan Xi looked at the big bed in the room and was actually a little nervous.
“This is the room I used to live in,” Gu Shen explained. “There are too many people in the house right now, so we’ll have to make do with one bedroom.”
“It’s fine.” Yan Xi comforted herself. “Sooner or later, this day will come.” She thought to herself but said it out loud unconsciously.
Gu Shen’s gaze changed. “Is that what you think?”
“No, I didn’t! You’re mistaken!”
It was still early and Yan Xi had no intention of sleeping. She just stood by the bed aimlessly and looked at the manor.
“Do you want to go down and take a look?” Gu Shen asked.
“Will you join me?”
“Yeah.”
The Gu family’s manor was very big. There were all kinds of flowers all around the road. Under the illumination of the lights, they revealed different shapes from the daytime.
“These flowers were planted by Grandma back then,” Gu Shen explained for the first time. “After she passed away, Grandpa also sent people to take care of these flowers, just like when she was still alive.”
Yan Xi naturally knew about this matter. Gu Hai was rigid and stubborn because he gave all his tenderness to his wife. The writer used around one thousand words to describe the love between him and his wife.
“But I don’t like flowers,” Yan Xi said. “I don’t even know what I can leave you with.”
“You don’t have to leave me anything, as long as you are by my side.”
Yan Xi followed her memory of the book and pushed Gu Shen to the koi pond.
There was still fish food placed at the side for passersby to feed.
It must be because of the many things that happened this evening that there was still a full bucket of fish food left in it.
Yan Xi grabbed a handful with interest and sprinkled it into the water.
The fish started to swarm up, their beautiful scales streaking across the water like ribbons of various colors. It was very spectacular.
Yan Xi liked fish. They were delicious and could be dissected, but she had never dissected a koi before.
She thought as she sprinkled another handful of fish food.
“Have you ever eaten koi?”
Gu Shen said in a roundabout manner, “These are quite expensive. The cheapest one costs more than 300,000 yuan. The one right there is the most expensive one, Lou Lan. It costs 10 million yuan.”
Yan Xi instantly dispelled that thought. This time, she grabbed more fish food and her expression became soft.
“Eat more, eat more.”
Yan Xi was tired after feeding the fish, so she sat on a rock by the pond.
Gu Shen lowered his eyes. No one knew what he was thinking about. After a while, he suddenly said, “If you really want to eat, you can. I’ll get Gu Yi to buy one that costs a few million yuan tomorrow.”
“I don’t wanna eat it.” Yan Xi didn’t know whether to laugh or cry. “I was just casually asking. You don’t have to take it to heart.”
Gu Shen responded with an “mm”.
“By the way, I remember that koi can make wishes. I turned to koi many times before my exams and I actually got pretty decent marks.”
“If you have any wishes, I can help you fulfill them.”
“That won’t do.” Yan Xi closed her eyes and clasped her hands together. Her expression was devout.
As a gentle breeze blew past her, the hair on her forehead floated up. Looking at her, Gu Shen felt at ease and looked very gentle.
After Yan Xi opened her eyes, she sprinkled some fish food in the pond.
“Everyone, eat well and make my wish come true.”
“What did you wish for?”
“It won’t work if I say it. Anyway, it’s related to you.”
Gu Shen felt very happy.
“I think I know what it is.”
