After dinner, Ni Pei sat next to Gu Xici, watching the dog blood movie, while describing the plot to Gu Xici, who the hero and heroine are, how handsome they are, and so on.

Gu Xici listened very attentively, she knew that Ni Pei wanted to help her out of boredom, and she didn't want to spoil her interest.

After Ni Pei yawned for the nth time, Gu Xici couldn't bear it, "Peipei, let's talk about the rest tomorrow, I'm a little sleepy."

"Okay." Ni Pei was beaming with joy as if she had been pardoned, God knew her upper eyelids were too heavy to lift long ago.

Gu Xici smiled knowingly, and stretched out her hands for Ni Pei to help.

In fact, she is not sleepy, how can she be sleepy, every day and night seem to be as long as a century.

After carefully helping Gu Xici wash up and cover her with the quilt, Ni Pei was already too tired to straighten up and yawned again and again.

"A Ci, sleep well, good night." Ni Peiqiang said energetically.

Gu Xici took Ni Pei's hand and asked cautiously, "Peipei, are you still angry with me?"

Ni Pei rolled his eyes, "If I was really angry with you, I would have left you alone. There's no need to rush around like an old lady. I'm going to sleep with you."

"Good night." Gu Xici said softly with a slight arc on the corner of her mouth.

In the silence, when Gu Xici heard the door being gently closed, she tried her best to open her eyes wide, trying to find a glimmer of light in the darkness, but she couldn't see anything, as if she was in a dark well, The lonely well drowned her, and she was almost out of breath.

Gu Xici didn't know how she fell asleep. When she was drowsy, she heard a slight knock at the door, and subconsciously shouted, "Su Liyuan, I'm thirsty, help me get a glass of water."

Ni Pei yawned big, with tears rolling in her eyes. Hearing Gu Xici's words, she thought to herself, you husband and wife really have a good understanding. One called her early in the morning and asked her to prepare warm water, and the other Unceremoniously commanding her, she said angrily, "I can pour water for you, but I can't find Su Liyuan."

Hearing Ni Pei's voice, Gu Xici suddenly remembered that she had escaped from the life with Su Liyuan.

Gu Xici smiled wryly, habit is really a terrible thing.

While helping Gu Xici to dress, Ni Pei said in a rambling manner, "Today I planned to take you to experience the beautiful scenery of L City, but the magazine has an urgent matter and I have to deal with it. There is an interview with a character nearby. You Don't worry, you will stay alone at home for a while, and I will be back soon."

"It's okay, I'm fine, you don't have to worry about me." Gu Xici said comfortingly.

"You can make people feel at ease." Ni Pei rolled his eyes and said, "How about you, just listen to my arrangement. After breakfast, go to the deck chair in the yard to enjoy the sun. I will download good music for you, and you can play it when you want to listen to it. L City is like spring all year round, and the air is fresh, which is very suitable for slow life. Listening to music and basking in the sun are the most comfortable things.”

"Peipei, I didn't expect you to be such a careful person." Gu Xici pretended to be surprised and said.

Ni Pei raised his eyebrows proudly, and said without humility, "That is, don't worry, I will come back to make you lunch when the music is over, you should behave yourself at home."

"Okay." Gu Xici said obediently.

Ni Pei glanced at his watch, "Ah, it's almost time, I'll take you downstairs first, and then I'll leave."

"Aren't you going to eat?" Gu Xici asked.

"Save it for the road!" Ni Pei yelled.

Ni Pei left quickly, while Gu Xici ate a slice of toast slowly, enjoying the rare and comfortable time.

What Ni Pei said is right, L City is indeed suitable for a slow life, even if she can't see it, she can still feel the comforting smell.

While Gu Xici was chewing slowly, the sound of music mixed with vibration suddenly sounded.

It was Ni Pei's mobile phone. She left in such a hurry that she didn't take it with her.

Gu Xici leaned on his crutches, groped forward following the voice, and said as he walked, "This Ni Pei, really, just praised her for her carefulness, but she lost everything."

Picking up the phone, Gu Xici instinctively pressed the answer button.

"Hello, hello."

"Is it Miss Ni? I just got off the plane and there is a traffic jam on the road. I may be late." A man's clean and clear voice came from the other end of the phone.

"I'm sorry, I'm her friend. She was in a hurry to go out and didn't bring her mobile phone." Gu Xici explained embarrassingly.

The man paused slightly, "But I haven't met Miss Ni, so I'm afraid I can't find the right person just based on my feeling?"

Gu Xici hesitated for a while, "Then can you tell me where you two met, and I'll send her the phone there."

"Okay, then I'll trouble you."

All the original plans were disrupted by Ni Pei, Gu Xici fumbled for a change of shoes, and went out cautiously.

The world outside is different from the world inside the house. Even if you can’t see the road anymore, the most you can do is trip over the furniture inside the house, but outside, you don’t know who you will meet, what you will encounter, and you may even get closer to your destination. go further.

Gu Xici was terrified in her heart, but she knew that sooner or later she would have to cross this step, she must learn to be strong and independent, she could not depend on others to live forever.

Gu Xici held the necklace on her chest and kissed it lightly.

It was a gift from Su Liyuan on her birthday, it was unique, holding it, her whole body seemed to be full of strength.

But Gu Xici forgot that this was not the S city she was familiar with, but the L city she was completely unfamiliar with. She didn't even know whether to turn left or right when going out.

Helpless, lonely, hesitant, fearful...

Every negative emotion lingers around her at this moment.

After struggling for a long time, she started to take steps, trying to distinguish the movement around her with her ears.

But she could avoid all the animals, but she couldn't avoid the still life, and she still stumbled and tripped over the roadblock a few times.

Standing on the side of the road, Gu Xici stretched out his arms to hail a taxi.

"Miss, do you want to take a car?" asked the kind taxi driver.

Gu Xici nodded with unfocused eyes, "Yes, master, can I trouble you to see me off?"

"Get in the car."

Gu Xici got into the car and gave the address, and her flustered heart regained its calm.

"Little girl, you can't see. Why don't you have family to take care of you? It's really irresponsible for them to let you out alone." The taxi driver said aggrievedly.

Gu Xici shook his head, "Master, I didn't let them come with me, can't I do it myself?"

"You are such a stubborn little girl. Fortunately, you met me. If you meet a bad person, what will you do..."

The taxi driver was still mumbling, and Ni Pei's cell phone rang again.

Caller ID, Su Liyuan.
