When Gu Ling came back, Meng Yin had already washed up and was in bed.
He stared at her, but his peripheral vision deliberately glanced at the table.
The things were put away, and he put away his cold gaze. When he looked at Meng Yin, a faint smile appeared on his face.
Meng Yin was still in a trance, thinking about the golden words that appeared on the book.
"What are you thinking about, Ayin?" Gu Ling pulled back the quilt and took her into his arms as he walked in.
"Ah... Oh, I was wondering which city the Soul Devouring Hall is in. I'm so curious and want to see what it looks like." Meng Yin raised her usual innocent smile, leaned on him and asked.
"In Qilin City." Gu Ling replied, "Ayin." He lowered his head and looked at her straight with deep eyes, which seemed to contain a little hope.
"After we pass Xuanwu City, we will get married," he said.
Meng Yin couldn't help but smile. It seemed that he was not even going to discuss it with her.
"Let's talk about the marriage later." Meng Yin said, "I care more about the jade slip."
After saying that, she felt that it was not appropriate. Why did it sound like she was with Gu Ling for power and money?
Gu Ling's expression did not change at all. She hurriedly explained, "No, I meant that if we find the jade slip, there won't be so many problems. We can live peacefully as two people."
She kept stirring with two fingers and smiled foolishly at Gu Ling.
"I know." Gu Ling leaned over and touched her forehead gently. "Although I said tonight that I hope A Yin can love me more, if you only stay with me because of power, I can accept it."
"Accept what!?" Meng Yin punched him in the chest, "Don't say that, I definitely like you, and I don't believe you can accept it, otherwise you wouldn't be jealous."
Gu Ling held Meng Yin's hand, lowered his eyes and said, "I don't want to see you worrying about other people's affairs. And I hate him."
Meng Yin put her hands on his cheeks, pinched both sides and pulled them deliberately. Gu Ling didn't react. She laughed out loud, and when she let go, two red marks appeared on his fair face, which made him look harmless and seemed to have a much better temper.
"Okay, the human brain is unlimited, I can think about a lot of things in a day." Meng Yin said.
"Can't you just think of me?" Gu Ling raised his eyebrows, and that hint of harmlessness disappeared.
Meng Yin shook her fingers and said deliberately: "No, no, no!"
She was thrown onto the bed by Gu Ling, who pretended to unbutton her pajamas. Meng Yin's eyes rolled, she covered her face with her hands, and slowly began to sob.
Gu Ling was stunned and at a loss. He picked up Meng Yin and said anxiously, "Did I hurt you? Ah Yin, I won't do anything before we get married. I just wanted to scare you."
Meng Yin's shoulders trembled and she let out a tiny whimper.
"Ayin, please stop crying, okay?" Gu Ling reached out to hug her. Just as he was about to bend over to kiss her, Meng Yin suddenly spread out her hands. Seeing his slightly dazed expression, she couldn't help but hold her stomach and laughed.
"You've been fooled by me, right? Hahaha..." Meng Yin wiped away her natural tears and asked deliberately.
Gu Ling came back to his senses, raised the corner of his mouth, and reached out to grab her chin: "So A Yin was lying to me..."
Meng Yin: I feel like my mouth is going to be in trouble.

The moonlight was shining through the screen onto Pei Xuanxi.
He looked at Xu Zheng's sleeping face and gently stroked it with the back of his warm hand.
After dinner, he told A Zheng that he would come to see her in the evening, but he didn't expect that she fell asleep first.
He smiled slightly, still gently, and when he stood up, he caught a glimpse of the box under the dressing table.
Xu Zheng seldom wears makeup, and her hair is almost always done by Meng Yin or the maid. She will tie it up casually when she finds it troublesome, and she also uses this place to store things.
The silver box was not obvious. He had noticed it before and did not find it strange. But today, for some unknown reason, it aroused his rare curiosity.
And this box is Xu Zheng’s suitcase. When she came to this world, she did not leave anything behind, and now several of them are still using the suitcase to carry things.
Pei Xuanxi remembered that when he first met her, she was holding several such boxes in her hands.
He took out the box for some unknown reason, and after a closer look, he found that it was sealed in the middle. He saw a pendant-like object reflecting in the moonlight, and he reached out and pulled it, and surprisingly found that it could be pulled.
The sound was not very loud. He slowly pulled the zipper to the back and the box was opened.
What was placed inside were nothing but Xu Zheng's clothes, mostly short-sleeved shirts that she would wear after taking a shower, and some underwear.
Pei Xuanxi just took a few glances at it and then put it away, putting the box back.
He sat down next to Xu Zheng again, and the doubts he had in Xiaoyao City resurfaced in his mind.
Where is Ah Zheng from? He held her hand and suddenly felt that he didn't know her at all. He knew nothing about her past or her hometown.
When they were in Zhaoding City, it was such a coincidence that they appeared when the herbs were in trouble, and Xia Nian saved the herbs. He originally thought that his relationship with Xia Hou Yu and others would deteriorate, but it got better and better later.
He could sense that A Zheng and the other three were involved, and it could even be said that they had been fanning the flames.
Especially Xia Nian and Meng Yin. From the Pan family case in Zhaoding City, he vaguely felt that the two of them really hoped that the relationship between the four of them would improve.
Why is this? He looked at Xu Zheng's rosy cheeks from sleeping soundly, feeling a little melancholy.
A Zheng, why do I feel like you are so far away from me and so close to me?
Xu Zheng was sleeping soundly. Her sleep quality has always been very good. Somehow, subconsciously she felt someone holding her hand, and the hot breath was falling on her fingertips.
She opened her eyes suddenly and saw Pei Xuanxi's white figure. Just as she subconsciously expected, he held her hands with both and placed them on his lips.
"Pei... Pei Xuanxi?" She asked with some confusion and rubbed her sleepy eyes, thinking she was in a dream.
"A Zheng." Pei Xuanxi smiled at her, "Did I wake you up?"
"No." Xu Zheng forced herself to be alert and cleared her throat. "Why are you here? Aren't you going to sleep yet?"
Pei Xuanxi lowered his eyes, his tone unclear: "After dinner, I told A Zheng that I would come in the evening." He raised his head and smiled at her, "It seems that I came too late, A Zheng fell asleep."
"I forgot." Xu Zheng shrugged. "I forgot. Oh, I was really sleepy just now. I fell asleep as soon as I fell on the bed."
"It's okay." He let go of her hand and supported his forehead with one arm, with a hint of smile in his eyes, "After we get married, Zheng can sleep however she wants."
"So nice!?" Xu Zheng's eyes lit up, "Okay, okay, hahahaha."
After saying that, she began to drowsily want to close her eyes again.
Pei Xuanxi stood up, sat on the bed, and held her chin with his big hand.
"A Zheng, I want to ask you a question." he said.
Xu Zheng nodded and forced herself to cheer up: "Ask if you want."
"Did you encounter any problems before coming to Zhaoding City?" He recalled the scene at that time. "I remember your dress and appearance, you don't look like someone from here. Ah Zheng, where is your hometown?"
As soon as he said this, Xu Zheng lost all her sleepiness.
No matter how careless she was, she realized what Pei Xuanxi had realized.
"My hometown... is Anhong Continent." She laughed, "It's just a small place, without a name, hahahaha..."
Pei Xuanxi looked at her deeply. He was very careful and could see at a glance the uncomfortable look on her face and the trembling eyelashes because she was eager to hide it.
"I have forgotten what happened at that time. After all, it has been so long." She sat up and touched her head. "Besides, don't you know me? I don't take these things to heart!"
Pei Xuanxi picked up the quilt and draped it over her, and said softly, "Is that so?"
