Goodnight

Mo Yu was full from eating and drinking in the restaurant. Gu Lian was sweating profusely on the bed.

Rehabilitation training was much more difficult than he had imagined. Just moving took up more than half of his strength. Gu Lian lay on the bed tiredly and stared blankly.

Mo Yu had not spoken to him for an entire night and he felt a little lonely.

Gu Lian suddenly realized that at some point, he seemed to have gotten used to the company of a certain talkative little animal. Although the other party would play tricks on him from time to time, she could bring him joy and surprise more often.

He was alone in this endless darkness for three years when someone suddenly pulled him out, and then everything began to improve.

She was indeed a lucky star. The next second, his door was pushed open.

“Dear hubby! I’m here to accompany you!”

When Mo Yu returned to the Gu residence, she accidentally bumped into Su Mei.

Although Gu Lian’s condition had improved, Su Mei seemed to be more anxious than before. Mo Yu could roughly guess the reason. However, there was nothing she could do about it. She could only hug Su Mei as comfort and tell her that Gu Lian would definitely wake up.

After comforting Su Mei, Mo Yu felt that the food in her stomach had almost been digested. She happened to walk under Gu Lian’s ward and went up to see him.

Su Mei looked at Mo Yu’s back as she went upstairs. She didn’t know if she was relieved or sad.

She only felt that a child like Mo Yu might not be suitable for the restrained life of a wealthy family. If Gu Lian woke up, he might still treat her sincerely and raise her well. But if Gu Lian did not wake up, could Mo Yu take care of him like this for the rest of her life? This was no different from locking a nightingale in a cage called a wealthy family and letting her sing to a life without hope.

Su Mei returned to the main residence and told Father Gu and Old Master Gu her thoughts. The three of them fell silent.

In the end, it was Old Master Gu who spoke. If Mo Yu did not want to continue in the future, they would not force her. They would give her a sum of money and let her do what she wanted.

Mo Yu jumped into the ward excitedly and crouched by Gu Lian’s bed, giggling foolishly.

A few bottles of wine were opened for the celebratory feast in the evening. Mo Yu drank too much without paying attention. She felt that her consciousness was still clear, but she was a little excited.

Gu Lian also realized that something was wrong with her and could not help but ask, “Have you been drinking?”

“Just a little bit. Gu Lian, I’m so happy. I’ve earned my own money!” Mo Yu smiled and reached out to touch Gu Lian’s straight nose. “I developed a website for everyone to socialize. It’s only been a week, right? I earned three million yuan! In the past, I didn’t even dare to think about earning three million yuan a week. In the past, just surviving was so, so difficult…” Mo Yu was drunk. She leaned against the head of the bed and told Gu Lian nonsense about her life in the apocalypse. She said that she didn’t have enough to eat or wear at that time. She even had to be on alert when she slept, afraid that she would die in the next second.

It was rare that Gu Lian did not speak. He quietly listened to her talk about how to find drinking water and how difficult it was to develop the website.

He didn’t know that Mo Yu was talking about life in the apocalypse and thought that she was talking about the grievances she had suffered in the countryside. He couldn’t help but feel a little heartache.

Mo Yu was already in a daze. As she spoke, she mentioned the novel she had read. Gu Lian felt as if he had heard his name and subconsciously asked, “What?”

“I said you’re very mean. If you want to kill me, just kill me. Why do you have to let so many people humiliate me? It’s not like I was the one who bullied you,” Mo Yu muttered. She was about to fall asleep.

“When did I kill you? You must be dreaming.” Gu Lian laughed, but his voice was still very gentle. He coaxed Mo Yu to go back to her room to sleep so that she wouldn’t catch a cold here.

“…Then I’ll do it for you…” Mo Yu couldn’t hear what he was saying. She only mumbled a sentence and fell asleep completely.

This sentence also made the two of them swap their bodies.

Gu Lian got up from the ground and looked at the watch. It was fifteen minutes to midnight.

Gu Lian immediately ran to the main residence. He had never hated the design of his house so much. Why did the courtyard have to be so big? It was not even enough for him to run back to his room to wash up and let Mo Yu lie on the bed safely.

Moonlight shone on the steps, paving a silver path.

Dressed in simple clothes, Cinderella ran down the path and returned to her bedroom before the magic failed. She lay down on the bed.

Gu Lian panted as he looked at the full moon outside the window and smiled in satisfaction.

At the moment the clock struck midnight, he said loudly, “Good night.”
