Traveling through thousands of years, I only love you

Chapter 165 Spring, Summer, Autumn and Winter

Xiao Yi and Li Lingyuan successfully traveled back to the modern era. Amid the hustle and bustle of the bustling city, their love grew deeper like a quiet lake.

Xiao Yi already had a keen interest in modern technology, and now he was dragging Li Lingyuan through various electronics stores. He picked up one of the latest smartwatches, turning it over in his hands, his eyes sparkling with curiosity. "Lingyuan, look at this thing! It can tell the time just by wearing it on your wrist, and it can do so many other things." Li Lingyuan couldn't help but laugh at his childlike excitement, reaching out and gently poking his cheek. "You're like a little idiot who hasn't seen the world. This isn't really a novelty in modern times." Xiao Yi feigned grievance, shaking her hand. "Then you'll have to teach me more. I'm from the ancient times, and I know nothing about these things."

The two of them came to a cafe and found a seat by the window. The sunlight shone on them through the glass, forming a soft halo. Li Lingyuan skillfully flipped through the menu and ordered two lattes. Xiao Yi curiously observed the surrounding environment, watching those people holding their mobile phones, talking, or staring at the screen intently. He whispered to Li Lingyuan: "It feels so different here from ancient times. Everyone seems to be very busy, but I don't know what they are busy with." Li Lingyuan took a sip of coffee, smiled and said: "The pace of modern life is fast, and everyone is rushing for life. But we are different. We can enjoy this hard-earned time." As she spoke, she reached out and gently held Xiao Yi's hand on the table. Xiao Yi felt the warmth of her palm, his heart warmed, and he held her hand tightly in return. Their eyes met, as if everything around them no longer existed.

That afternoon, they arrived at a park. The park was shaded by lush green trees and vibrantly colored flowers. Seeing a group of children flying kites on the grass, Xiao Yi couldn't help but think of kites from ancient times. With a sudden impulse, he took Li Lingyuan's hand and said, "Lingyuan, let's go fly a kite, just like in ancient times." Li Lingyuan, seeing the anticipation in his eyes, happily agreed. They bought a beautiful butterfly kite and headed to the open grassy area. Xiao Yi had flown kites before and had some experience with them. He expertly pulled the string and ran, and the kite quickly took flight. He turned to look at Li Lingyuan, a smug smile on his face. "Look, I'm awesome, aren't I?" Li Lingyuan followed suit, smiling and responding, "Yes, yes, you're the best. But don't let the kite fall," she said as she ran over to Xiao Yi, took the string from his hand, and felt the force of the kite's wind. Xiao Yi gently hugged her from behind, resting his chin on her shoulder, and whispered, "Lingyuan, no matter in ancient times or modern times, as long as I am with you, I feel extremely happy." Li Lingyuan's heart trembled slightly. She turned her head and kissed Xiao Yi lightly on the cheek: "Me too, as long as you are here, anywhere is home."

Tired from playing, the two sat on the grass to rest. Li Lingyuan plucked a small flower and pinned it in Xiao Yi's hair, saying playfully, "Mr. Xiao, you look quite charming this way." Xiao Yi looked at her mischievous appearance and couldn't help but pinch her nose, "You always tease me. I'll give you one too." As he spoke, he also plucked a flower and carefully inserted it into Li Lingyuan's hair. He gently stroked the hair by her ear and said with a gentle look, "Lingyuan, you're so beautiful." Li Lingyuan felt a little embarrassed by his gaze and lowered her head, her cheeks flushed.

In the evening, they returned to their little home in modern times. It was a cozy little apartment, simply and comfortably decorated. Li Lingyuan walked into the kitchen, ready to make a sumptuous dinner. Xiao Yi followed her, insisting on helping. He stood beside Li Lingyuan, watching her skillfully chop and stir-fry vegetables, and from time to time he came over to ask questions. "Lingyuan, what is the name of this dish? It looks so delicious." "How much seasoning should I put in this?" Li Lingyuan patiently answered them one by one, and from time to time he would instruct him to pass the seasoning or get a plate. The two were busy in the kitchen, and the air was filled with the aroma of food and the smell of warmth.

Dinner was ready, and the table was filled with a variety of delicious food. Li Lingyuan opened a bottle of red wine and poured a glass for each of them. She raised her glass, looked at Xiao Yi, and said, "Cheers to our new life in the modern world." Xiao Yi also raised his glass and clinked it with hers. "Cheers! I hope our future lives will be as beautiful as this." With that, they both drank it down in one gulp.

After dinner, the two sat on the sofa and watched TV. A romantic love movie was playing on the TV. Looking at the scene of the hero and heroine embracing each other affectionately on the screen, Xiao Yi's heart moved. He gently put his arm around Li Lingyuan's shoulders and pulled her closer to him. Li Lingyuan raised her head slightly and looked at him, her eyes full of love. Xiao Yi lowered his head and kissed her forehead lightly, then slowly moved down and kissed her lips. Li Lingyuan closed her eyes and responded to his kiss, her hands unconsciously hugging his neck. The kiss was gentle and passionate, as if they wanted to put all their love for each other into it.

After a long moment, the two separated, foreheads resting against each other. Xiao Yi whispered, "Lingyuan, I love you. This love will never change even after a thousand years." Li Lingyuan's eyes glistened with tears as she smiled and said, "I love you too. No matter what the future holds, I will never leave you." The two sat in each other's arms, quietly enjoying this beautiful moment, as if the only sound in the world was the sound of each other's heartbeats.

In the days that followed, Xiao Yi diligently studied modern knowledge, enrolling in various online and offline courses. He enjoyed learning everything from computer basics to financial knowledge. Meanwhile, Li Lingyuan steadily rose through the ranks at her current position as Creative Director at an advertising agency. With her unique creativity and keen market insight, she has produced many outstanding advertising projects.

On weekends, they would go to art exhibitions together. In the art gallery, Xiao Yi looked at the paintings of different styles, his heart filled with amazement. He stood in front of an abstract painting, tilted his head, and asked Li Lingyuan with a puzzled look: "Lingyuan, why don't I understand this painting? It feels messy." Li Lingyuan smiled and explained to him: "This is the charm of abstract painting. Everyone has a different understanding of it. It expresses a kind of emotion and artistic conception. You can use your imagination to see what you can feel from it." Xiao Yi stared at the painting seriously for a while and said: "I seem to feel a sense of freedom, a feeling of being unrestrained." Li Lingyuan nodded approvingly: "Yes, you see, art is so wonderful."

Sometimes, they would go camping in the suburbs. The two of them would carry their bags and look for a beautiful place to camp in the mountains and forests. At night, they would lie on the grass outside the tent and look up at the starry sky. Xiao Yi pointed to a star and said, "Lingyuan, look at that star, it's so bright. Just like what we saw in ancient times. In ancient times, I often looked at the starry sky, wondering if one day I would be able to look at the same starry sky with you." Li Lingyuan snuggled in his arms and said, "Now we have done it. This may be the arrangement of fate."

Once, Li Lingyuan encountered a difficult situation at work. A client expressed numerous dissatisfactions with her advertising proposal and demanded a quick revision. Li Lingyuan was gloomy and troubled all day. Xiao Yi noticed something was wrong. When they returned home that evening, he pulled Li Lingyuan to sit on the sofa and gently said, "Lingyuan, are you having trouble at work? Tell me about it." Li Lingyuan recounted the situation and said helplessly, "Time is so tight, I really don't know what to do." Xiao Yi pondered for a moment and said, "Perhaps we can think from a different perspective. Tell me about the features of this product and the customer's needs. Maybe I can help you with some advice." Li Lingyuan looked at him with some surprise. She had never expected Xiao Yi, who had always lived in an ancient way of thinking, to offer to help solve a modern work problem. However, she still gave Xiao Yi detailed information about the product and the customer's needs. Xiao Yi listened attentively, occasionally asking questions. After a while, his eyes lit up, and he said, "Lingyuan, I think we can start with the product's historical and cultural background, combine it with modern popular elements, and create a unique retro fashion sense." Li Lingyuan's eyes lit up, and she excitedly hugged Xiao Yi, "Xiao Yi, you're amazing! This idea is so novel." Over the next few days, the two of them reviewed information and refined the plan. Ultimately, the new advertising plan received high praise from the client, and Li Lingyuan successfully completed the work.

In modern life, Xiao Yi and Li Lingyuan support each other and grow together. Their love remains pure and steadfast in this fast-paced era. Whether exploring new things together or facing life's difficulties, they always stick together and move forward hand in hand. They know that fate, which spans thousands of years, has brought them together, and this love will accompany them through every spring, summer, autumn and winter to come.
