I wish you two lifetimes

The tea artisan came to the private room in a short while, skillfully brewed the tea and placed it in front of the two of them.

The two nodded towards the tea master, put their fingers on the belly of the cup, picked it up, took a sip, and put down the teacup.

Hmm, the tea fragrance is overflowing in my mouth, which is not bad.

Seeing Gu Yanran took a sip and his eyebrows relaxed, he also felt a lot happier.

"Everyone says 'tea, three wines, four bald peaches', today I have all three, but there are only two people who drink tea, and only three people who drink alcohol, and there are two people who travel." Gu Yanran glanced at the tea tray three teacups, said.

Putting three cups on the tea tray comes from the saying "tea, wine, four bald peaches and two". Yanran has heard it said before that three people must drink tea together, and four people must drink wine together. However, it is better for two people to go out to see the scenery and play, so that they can agree on opinions and satisfy the pleasure of traveling.

"Then thanks to you, it's also a difference." Wen Yanzhi glanced at her and smiled.

Girls don't drink much tea, and even fewer like her know how to taste tea.

It has to be said that Gu Yanran is indeed very fond of his temper sometimes, the two of them have many similar interests, and there is no hindrance to their communication.

She gives people a feeling that has been precipitated by the years, and sometimes she gives people a calm and eloquent talk, which is not what a girl of this age should be like.

Her cousin is about the same age as her. Every time she sees her, she is either checking Weibo with her mobile phone or watching Korean dramas with her tablet. She always talks about traffic stars. He is not criticizing such an attitude towards life. It's just that he himself is really not interested in these.

Now that he met Gu Yanran, he felt like a wanderer walking in the desert met another companion.

He smiled and looked at Gu Yanran again.

It had to be said that in his opinion now, her soul was more charming than her appearance.

"When will school start?" Today is the fifteenth day of the first lunar month, and students should return to school around the same time.

"School starts on the [-]th, I'll stay for another two days, and I'll leave on the [-]th." In two days, I can almost finish the part at hand. Anyway, she is only an assistant here, and the higher-ups will not arrange many important tasks for her. She's doing pretty well now.

"Listen, your father is also in this business?" He was curious about what kind of person his father was who could raise a daughter like her.

"Well, Gu Fangyan, if you were in Nanjing, you should know him more or less."

He raised his eyebrows. It turned out that she was Gu Fangyan's daughter, but he had met Gu Fangyan's family a few times. The Gu family did have a daughter, but she remembered that the person was definitely not Gu Yanran. Gu Yanran's appearance was still very eye-catching. He couldn't possibly no impression.

Thinking of what she said just now that she went to Dongcheng after junior high school, she knew in her heart that there should be some secrets she didn't want to say, and he didn't ask.

"Well, I know." They still went to the scene together several times.

Gu Yanran was not very surprised, this circle is like this, outsiders mostly don't know about it, but people in the circle more or less have some intersections, so it's not surprising that they know each other.

She took a sip of the tea in front of her. The taste of warm tea was three points better than that of hot tea, and she took another sip.

"The warm tea tastes better than before." She put down her teacup and glanced at Wen Yanzhi.

"Herbal tea tastes better, just wait and try."

He also picked up the teacup and took a sip, then put down the teacup, resting his little finger on the table, he lit it again and again.

Gu Yanran's eyes were fixed on his hand, and his heart was beating uncontrollably faster and faster.

This is Yanzhi's little gesture after drinking tea. She used to love to stare at his hands when he was drinking tea, and only now did she discover this little gesture. Maybe he didn't even notice it.

To put it bluntly...

Maybe you really came back.

She felt warm in her heart and smiled slightly.

She didn't speak, took a sip from the teacup, the cold wind from outside came in, the warmth of the tea had already dissipated, the tea was already cold, the taste was indeed as he said, better than warm tea, and finally let She tasted the slightest sweetness.

She put down the glass and filled another herself.

The sky was getting dark very quickly, and after a while, the first lights were seen, and the lanterns on the river bank were already lit, stretching out into the distance and merging into a straight line.

The bustling crowd outside made the street even more lively.

There were a few children chasing and fighting in the street with lamps in their hands, which made Gu Yanran's heart itch.

Gu Yanran stared out the window for a long time, but didn't notice that Wen Yanzhi got up and left for a while.

When she came back to her senses, Wen Yanzhi had already slowly walked up from downstairs and stood in front of her, "Let's go, it's very lively down here, go and have a look."

"En." She nodded, picked up her own brocade box, and took another brocade box next to her, and handed it to him.

When I walked downstairs and was about to pay, I was told that the bill had already been paid.

Gu Yanran turned to look at him, a little dissatisfied, "I invite you this time, what are you doing?"

"Next time." Wen Yanzhi put on his coat, and handed her the scarf in his hand, "It's cold outside, you wear it."

She froze for a moment, glanced at him, took the scarf, "Thank you."

With a gentle smile, as expected, he admired her temperament very much, without hesitation or hypocrisy.

This was Wen Yanzhi's kindness. He refused him, and he couldn't hold back his face. She also knew that it was just a concern among friends. To him, there was no ambiguity at all, so she readily accepted it.

There were a lot of people outside, and the two of them were pushed forward by the flow of people.

There was a faint vibration from the phone in his pocket. Wen Yanzhi lowered his head and took out the phone. He glanced at the incoming call, but if he didn't answer it, he put the phone back in the bag. When he looked up, he didn't see Gu Yanran anymore.

But Gu Yanran saw someone selling lanterns in front of him, so he took a few steps forward. Who would have thought that Wen Yanzhi just glanced at his phone at this moment, but she didn't see her go away. When he turned around and wanted to ask Wen Yanzhi, he found that there was nothing behind him.

She looked back, it was really not easy to find a person in the crowd coming and going, and in addition to the darkness, she couldn't see the face clearly at all.

She was a little panicked, so she leaned closer to the river bank, trying not to be taken away by the flow of people. She looked around, but her height of 1.6 meters [-] was useless at the moment, and she didn't see him.

She suddenly remembered that she could call him, but when she took out her mobile phone, she realized that she didn't have his mobile phone number. He was lagging behind, so he should catch up.

The children next to her were sitting on their father's shoulders, holding a small lantern, and dancing happily.

The big hand below patted his hand lovingly, "Be quiet, or I will throw you into the river."

The child laughed more happily, and made more noise on his father.

The laughter around him dispelled the coldness around him.

A lantern appeared in front of her unsteadily, "Girl, do you want a lantern?"

"No need." She thought it was a lamp vendor, but when she recalled the voice, she looked up to where the voice came from.

Familiar face, eyebrows and eyes like water, warm as before, in a bright light, eyes like stars.

"Where have you been?" Gu Yanran looked at the person in front of him, his restless heart gradually calmed down.

"I just received a call. I was looking for you. I saw someone selling lamps, so I bought one for you." He handed the lamp over.

Yan Ran didn't refuse, and accepted it happily. The painting on the lamp was a picture of a lady from the Tang Dynasty, hiding her face and shyly, seeming to be coquettish.

"I like lotus lanterns." Gu Yanran subconsciously said something, and after he finished speaking, he couldn't help feeling annoyed in his heart. What he said just now was well intentioned, but he still disliked it.

Before Gu Yanran could apologize, a faint "OK" came from beside him.

A little embarrassed, Gu Yanran didn't know what to say.

The two found a deserted river bank and walked down the stairs. It would be suitable to put lights here.
