After bringing Jing Ke back to the room, Su Xuan found Yan Lingji on the roof. She was sitting upright, looking into the distance, wondering what she was thinking.
Su Xuan jumped into the air, climbed onto the roof, and sat next to Yan Lingji.
"You know martial arts?" Yan Lingji looked at him in surprise.
"I didn't say I can't." Su Xuan shrugged helplessly.
He looked up at the night sky. Perhaps because it was late at night, the sky was filled with stars and they were visible to the naked eye.
"In my hometown, there is a saying that after a person dies, they will turn into stars and quietly watch over their loved ones." He put his hands behind his head and lay down. "Perhaps your brother and your parents are watching you in the sky."
Yan Lingji looked up at the starry sky. There were countless stars in the sky.
She couldn't tell which one was her brother and which one was her parents.
"Are you comforting me?" Yan Lingji also lay down like Su Xuan.
"Can you tell the stars in the sky apart?" Su Xuan asked back.
Yan Lingji remained silent.
"The stars visible in the sky are divided into 28 constellations, seven in each of the four directions. The Big Dipper is the most famous among them." He pointed to the seven bright stars in the north. "Have you noticed that these seven stars, when connected together, look like a spoon?"
Yan Lingji looked in the direction where Su Xuan's finger pointed and found that it was true. Her eyes suddenly lit up.
"The star at the front of the spoon handle is called Tianshu, followed by Tianxuan, Tianji, and Tianquan. The three stars at the end of the spoon are Yuheng, Kaiyang, and Yaoguang."
"When it comes to the stars, we have to mention the story of the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl."
"Legend has it that the ancient Emperor of Heaven's granddaughter, the Weaver Girl, was good at weaving. She wove colorful clouds for the sky every day. She gradually got tired of the boring life over the years. While the Emperor of Heaven was not paying attention, she secretly ran down to the mortal world, fell in love with a cowherd in Hexi, married him secretly, and lived a life of the man farming and the woman weaving."
"But this angered the Emperor of Heaven, so he captured the Weaver Girl and brought her back to the Heavenly Palace, forcing them to separate, and only allowing them to meet on the Magpie Bridge on the seventh day of the seventh month every year."
Su Xuan pointed at Vega. "Do you see that star? Below it, there are four darker stars forming a square shape. They are the shuttles of the beautiful clouds and rainbows woven by the Weaver Girl in the myth. On the other side of the Milky Way, there is a bright star to the south-east of Vega, which is Altair.
According to legend, their steadfast love moved magpies, and every year on the seventh day of the seventh lunar month, countless magpies would fly over and use their bodies to build a magpie bridge across the Milky Way, allowing the Cowherd and the Weaver Girl to meet on the river.
"And their unwavering love was also called the Love of the Galaxy by people in later generations."
Su Xuan looked up at the starry sky, talked eloquently and introduced himself seriously, while Yan Lingji looked at the starry sky for a while, then looked at him, and was absent-minded from time to time.
She was gradually unable to tell whether she was looking at the stars or at him.
"What's wrong?" Su Xuan noticed her abnormality and asked with concern.
"Are all Confucianists like you, knowing everything about astronomy and geography?" Yan Lingji asked softly.
"I have only learned a little more than them, but it is far from knowing everything from astronomy to geography." Su Xuan shook his head and put his thumb and index finger together, leaving a gap.
Yan Lingji gave him a charming look.
She wouldn't believe his lies.
"Maybe just like you said, I am special." Su Xuan added.
As he spoke, he also winked at Yan Lingji.
"Have you ever heard of this saying? Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Maybe that's why you think I'm special."
Su Xuan's words were rather tactful, but Yan Lingji still understood them.
Does he mean that I like him?
"It's getting late, so let's stop here today."
However, before Yan Lingji could think about it, Su Xuan stood up and prepared to leave.
When he was about to leave, he took off his coat and put it on Yan Lingji, "It's cold at night, remember to rest early."
After saying that, he left without looking back.
Yan Lingji sat there, feeling the remaining warmth on her coat, staring in a daze at the direction Su Xuan left.
Just leave like that?
Only then did she realize that she subconsciously wanted to stay with him for a while longer.
Could it be that I really like him?
Thinking about this question again, she no longer denied it, but seriously examined her own heart and recalled the scenes of her time with Su Xuan.
Then, her heart was in turmoil.
Because she realized that this might be true.
That night, Yan Lingji stayed awake all night, thinking about this problem.
But the more she thought about it and the more she denied it, the clearer she understood her own feelings.
If you like it, you like it; if you don't like it, you don't like it.
There was never any ambiguity in her eyes.
She didn't know how to face Su Xuan because just last night, she felt Tianze's call.
If this kind of thing happened in the past, she would definitely not have any hesitation, but now she was in a dilemma, and she even felt in her heart that Su Xuan was more important.
So she never left.
Su Xuan pushed open the door and saw Yan Lingji at first sight.
He waited for me here on purpose, so something must have happened.
He subconsciously asked, "What's wrong?"
Yan Lingji opened her mouth and wanted to tell him about Tianze, but she changed her mind when the words came to her lips, "I'll give you your clothes back."
When Su Xuan took the coat, he took the opportunity to hold Yan Lingji's wrist, looked into her eyes, and said seriously, "I am not an outsider. You can tell me anything."
"You can always choose to trust me."
His eyes were sincere and concerned, and Yan Lingji felt warm in her heart and didn't want to talk anymore.
"Nothing." She looked away slightly and said hypocritically.
"I'll tell you if there's anything." As if she was afraid that Su Xuan wouldn't believe her, she added another sentence.
Did this person choose me? Su Xuan was thoughtful. Yan Lingji was so abnormal. There was only one possibility, that is, Tianze was released.
But she still stayed by his side. Su Xuan raised a smile on his face and felt happy in his heart.
She didn't want to say it, and Su Xuan didn't ask any more questions.
"I'm going to Zilanxuan today to ask Zi Nu to take over the recruitment of workers, and by the way, I'm going to visit Xiao Xia." Su Xuan held Yan Lingji's soft and boneless hand, "Would you like to come with me?"
"Yeah." Yan Lingji responded.
Suddenly, Yan Lingji felt an itchy sensation on her cheek.
"Your hair is a little messy. Let me help you tidy it up." He looked at her tenderly and helped her comb it carefully.
dong dong!
She could clearly feel her heart beating hotly, as if it was burning with flames.
After I realized what I was feeling, the situation became even worse.
