Chapter 463: Little Crybaby, Beautiful and Delicate, the Rugged Man Dotes on His Wife (13)
"Since it's a memory, we must remember it more deeply," Ji Xiaoyuan's voice was husky. After Su Zhiruan's recent stimulation, his eyes were dark and his Adam's apple bobbed, "Ruanruan... I'll help you."
Su Zhiruan heard the voice and merely glanced sideways, immediately noticing a series of changes in him.
She couldn't help it; her gaze followed down.
... As expected.
Moreover, her previous discussion with the system about whether "it was big or not" now had clarity.
Indeed, it was big.
Even just the outline was enough to show Ji Xiaoyuan's superior qualities.
"You're distracted." Ji Xiaoyuan reached out, cupping her face all at once, and squeezed it gently in a good mood, finding it very soft, "What are you thinking about?"
"I was thinking—" Su Zhiruan was still in a daze, and when Ji Xiaoyuan suddenly asked, she almost blurted it out. Realizing in time, she stopped herself at the critical moment.
"Hmm?"
"Weren't you going to help me deepen the memory?" Su Zhiruan smiled.
"Indeed."
An intoxicating night, with the moonlight shining silver-white, and empty streets.
Su Zhiruan wasn't a native of ancient times; she'd been exposed to modern surroundings, and didn't find this setting unusual.
Lantern Festival, kissing under the moonlight.
This was certainly a very beautiful and deep memory.
When Ji Xiaoyuan and Su Zhiruan finally headed back, the crowds on the street had dispersed considerably. Occasionally, there were still reluctant lovers, gazing at each other with tearful eyes, unwilling to part, inseparable.
There were also long-married couples who found time to take a stroll, not overly intimate, but very much in sync with each other.
Su Zhiruan's lips tingled, and she yawned deeply, indeed feeling a bit sleepy.
"Let's stay at the inn tonight, it's close by." Ji Xiaoyuan half-embraced her, noticing her weariness, and pointed to the nearby inn.
"Alright."
When they returned to the inn, the shopkeeper and waiter were still awake.
As it was the Lantern Festival, the restaurant had introduced novel dishes to attract customers, even delaying the hour.
There were still a few scattered guests in the main hall.
"Owner! Madam, you two are here." The waiter, sharp-eyed, immediately waved when he saw Ji Xiaoyuan and Su Zhiruan.
The shopkeeper also noticed them. He was fiddling with an abacus and stopped to greet them, "Owner, Madam, are you here to rest?"
"Are there any rooms available?"
"Your rooms, number one, two, and three in the sky section are all reserved for you, rest assured." The shopkeeper lowered his voice a bit, "Owner, today we are completely full, business is exceptionally good."
"I can tell." Ji Xiaoyuan had noticed the sign when he first came in.
Besides the main hall, the upstairs floors were all guest rooms.
Each guest room had a sign at the door, and a sign meant someone was staying there.
Although this restaurant usually did well in business, thanks largely to dining, there were not many lodgers in the county. Normally, if one floor was full, it would be considered good business.
But today, all the rooms were full.
Ji Xiaoyuan led Su Zhiruan upstairs.
He opened the door to the number two room in the sky section, carrying Su Zhiruan inside.
The beds here were all tidied daily, even though he did not frequently stay there.
Su Zhiruan's eyelids were drooping.
