Ye Chuyan left a handful of gold leaves on the table and sneaked out of the private room.
She had no internal strength, so she could only stick to the wall all the way, trying her best to avoid everyone's sight, and sneaked into the seventh floor quietly.
Most of the lights on the seventh floor are on, and they are probably all waiting in their rooms to see the thousands of lanterns taking off in an hour.
She wandered around before finding a dark room with no lights on.
She pushed the door but didn't open it, guessing that the person inside might be asleep, so she locked the door.
Na Sheng's people should be coming soon. She had no choice but to hide in the house first.
She took out a piece of gold leaf from her arms, stuffed it into the crack of the door, and tried to open the bolt.
It took only a few attempts to succeed. Ye Chuyan's eyes lit up, and he pushed the door open and stepped in.
Wu Mu was about to attack the thief who came in through the door, but when he stretched out his hand halfway, he stopped abruptly.
He seemed to have seen Ye Chuyan in her teenage years.
Even the smell is the same.
She was wearing a white brocade dress, her skin was like snow, and her pupils were lively. She stood there blankly, looking into her west eyes.
It was around this age that Ye Chuyan married Pei Xiuyan.
After he missed her wedding, he went to wander in the West.
Ye Chuyan is dead and will never be resurrected, let alone what she was like when she was a girl.
Even if there were people who looked similar to her in the world, they couldn't be exactly like her, not even smelling the same.
It turns out that missing someone to the extreme can cause hallucinations.
He kept his eyes open desperately to prevent himself from blinking.
He was afraid that if he blinked, everything would disappear.
He looked at the person in front of him lustfully, with infinite tenderness in his heart.
Ye Chuyan never expected that the person living in this room was Wu Mu.
She has no relatives or friends, and Wu Mu is the only person in the world who haunts her.
The one who supported her through Nirvana and rebirth.
It is the biggest motivation for her to continue living in the world.
Her heart almost stopped beating.
She could clearly hear herself gasping.
She stood there blankly, looking at Wu Mu motionlessly.
Through the moonlight outside the window, she saw that Wu Mu's eyes were still so bright, like two bright black gems in the dark room.
It's just that his whole body has a terrifyingly calm temperament.
It seemed like nothing in the world could make him make waves again.
How did he become so mature and stable?
Why is there endless sorrow and desolation in his eyes that are as bright as stars?
He was looking at himself sadly and affectionately, as if he wanted to penetrate his own body and see the nothingness behind him.
Ye Chuyan tightened her palms and bit her lower lip to prevent herself from crying.
The handsome young man who was once stunningly talented later married her corpse and became a lonely man now covered with vicissitudes of life.
After a long time, she opened her mouth, sipped the promise for a long time, and shouted softly with a choked voice.
"Wu Mu, it's me...Ayan..."
Her tears rolled down crazily with these words, like broken beads.
Wu Mu's eyes widened, his back stiffened, and the blood all over his body seemed to have solidified.
He looked at Ye Chuyan dreamingly.
I can't believe there is sound in this hallucination.
He timidly raised his hand and then moved his arm a little. His eyes were so sore that he took his hand back again.
He really wanted to be greedy and touch Ye Chuyan's face once more.
But he was really afraid that once he stretched out his hand, the person in front of him would disappear.
Ye Chuyan saw Wu Mu's timidity and despair.
She could no longer control herself and threw herself into Wu Mu's arms.
She pressed her face against Wu Mu's chest and hugged his waist tightly, tears falling heavily.
All the life in Beirong Harem these days has turned into the grievances and longings at this time.
"Wumu, Wumu..."
"I am your Ayan..."
"It's me, it's me, I'm not dead."
"Wu Mu, I miss you so much..."
"I really miss you……"
Wu Mu heard Ye Chuyan's heartbeat, smelled her scent, felt the warmth of the person in her arms and her hot tears dripping on his heart.
It was as if someone had cast a spell on him, his whole heart was hanging in the air, unable to fall to the ground.
He lowered his head and looked at the person in his arms in disbelief.
It's a living Ayan, not an illusion.
No matter how strange and unbelievable it was, he recognized this fact.
It was really Ayan, she was still alive, and she came to find herself.
He was stunned by this huge shock of joy.
The heartbeat becomes violent and rapid.
He didn't dare to use force, but carefully hugged Ye Chuyan with his hands.
I opened my mouth several times but no sound came out.
Tried many times to no avail.
Finally, with all his strength, he managed to make a hoarse sound.
"Ayan, I'm here."
This hoarse and low-pitched word "西" is like the sound of nature to Ye Chuyan.
She hugged Wu Mu and burst into tears.
Suddenly there was a noise outside.
Ye Chuyan suddenly trembled, held back her tears, and looked at Wu Mu with hazy eyes.
He said in a trembling voice: "Wu Mu, someone wants to arrest me, I can't be discovered by them."
There were still tears on her face, and her eyes were covered with mist.
Wu Mu wanted to wipe away her tears and had thousands of questions in his heart that he wanted to ask her, but he understood that now was not the time to talk about these.
He pulled Ye Chuyan to the closet in the room, quickly opened the closet, opened a wooden box on the bottom of the closet, and said to Ye Chuyan decisively and resolutely: "Hide here!"
Ye Chuyan jumped into the box and lay curled up at the bottom of the box.
She saw Wu Mu standing by the cabinet, her lips pursed tightly, her face calm.
After she lay down, Wu Mu gave her a comforting look.
"Ayan, believe me."
After saying that, he reluctantly glanced at Ye Chuyan and covered Ye Chuyan in the box.
Then he locked the box from the outside.
At this time, the noise in the corridor became clearer.
A burst of orderly footsteps slowly approached Wu Mu's room.
Someone stood outside the door and said sternly: "The Eagle Master is doing business, and idle people should avoid it."
"All tenants must stay in the house and are not allowed to move."
"Those who disobey the order will be killed on the spot!"
Wu Mu couldn't help but frown.
During his time in Star City, he had heard of the Eagle Master.
This is Na Sheng's special Guards.
Behind every crazy thing Na Sheng did, there was the figure of this Guards.
Why did Ayan become a sixteen-year-old girl, and why did she offend these people?
Before Wu Mu had time to think deeply, the door was kicked open.
A group of people wearing black goshawk uniforms and black iron masks on the lower half of their faces broke in.
Judging from their skills and posture, they are all masters of internal strength.
The leader's eyes were like a hawk, scanning Wu Mu and the room.
He asked in a cold voice: "Why don't you light the lamp?"
Wu Mu replied calmly. "I just woke up and you came in before I had time to light the lamp."
The leader waved to the others, his voice cold and ruthless.
"Search!"
A group of people who broke into the house quickly lit all the candles in the house, and the house suddenly became as bright as day.
This group of people, filled with a murderous aura, began to rummage through the house in a well-trained manner.
Although they are fierce, their movements are gentle.
Especially when he climbed onto the bed or under the bed where someone might be hiding, he was not rude at all, nor did he use a sword.
Wu Mu guessed that this was the person Ye Chuyan said he wanted to arrest her.
Apparently, he wanted to capture Ye Chuyan alive without hurting her.
The people in the room were still searching silently. The leader looked at Wu Mu with a sinister look, took out a painting from his arms, spread it out and said to Wu Mu, "Have you seen this woman just now?"
The painting shows Ye Chuyan wearing a bright red palace dress, extremely graceful and gorgeous.
Wu Mu raised his eyes and looked at the painting, his face calm.
"never seen it."
His face showed no emotion, but his heart felt like a knife.
What on earth did Ayan go through to become sixteen years old and be hunted down by Na Sheng's guards?
How much suffering has she suffered?
How many grievances have you suffered?
Just thinking about this made Wu Mu feel suffocated.
He had many questions to ask Ye Chuyan, and many things to say to her.
Right now, he had to deal with these people quickly before he and Ye Chuyan could slowly express their feelings to each other.
The Eagle Master quickly rummaged through the entire house, leaving only the wardrobe where Ye Chuyan was hidden.
A Guardsman was about to open the wardrobe when Wu Mu suddenly said: "Wait a moment."
Everyone looked at him, and the atmosphere in the room suddenly became weird.
Wu Mu said calmly: "I will do it myself."
After saying that, he walked forward slowly and opened the wardrobe calmly and openly.
He took out a key, opened the lock of the box, and said to the people in the room: "This is my wife. I am afraid that you will disturb her, so I have to open it myself."
The leader of the Guards frowned.
As soon as he entered the room, he felt that this man was a little strange. He was only twenty years old at most, but he was as calm and quiet as a ten-year-old man.
He didn't care at all about what he was searching for, nor was he afraid, as if he was completely out of touch with everything.
The eyes of everyone in the room were locked on the box Wu Mu was about to open.
Wu Mu's face was suddenly filled with sadness, and he gently opened the box.
In the box were a few sundries and some men's robes, with a conspicuous spiritual tablet placed on the clothes.
The spirit tablet was wrapped in a layer of black cloth, and the words on it could not be seen.
Everyone looked slightly surprised.
Wu Mu carefully picked up the spiritual tablet and put it aside. She said warmly to the spiritual tablet, "Don't be afraid, madam. They will leave after searching."
When he traveled in the West, he learned some folk tricks of transforming a living person into a box.
It's nothing more than tampering with the box and using a little trick to make others think it's empty. In fact, the person is hiding under the mezzanine of the box.
Ye Chuyan was curled up under the box's mezzanine.
She knew that Wu Mu didn't mean this to the people in the room, but to herself.
She heard Wu Mu calling her wife.
Thinking of this, Ye Chuyan's eyes became sore and she almost cried.
She bit her lower lip tightly, holding in her breath to prevent herself from making any sound.
Wu Mu took out all the contents of the box and placed them on the ground one by one.
"That's all in the box."
Only then did the leader understand why the man in front of him was so strange. He turned out to be an infatuated man who had lost his wife.
He stepped up and took a look at the bottom of the box. It was indeed empty.
He glanced at Wu Mu again and saw that he was still unfazed, then he turned and winked at everyone, "Retreat!"
The people in the room quickly left the room as neatly and well-trained as when they came in.
Wu Mu did not close the door. He waited until all the guards who searched other rooms on the seventh floor left, then slowly closed the window and locked the door.
After closing the door, his face no longer looked as calm as before.
He quickly walked over to open the box and cut open a board at the bottom of the box. He found that Ye Chuyan was still curled up quietly underneath and had not disappeared.
He took a long breath.
All this is true, his Ayan is really alive and still inside.
His heart was as soft as catkins, and his face was stained with endless tenderness. He stretched out his hand and said to Ye Chuyan: "Ayan, come out."
Ye Chuyan raised his eyes and met Wu Mu's starry eyes. They were bright and bright, and the thousands of stars were still so beautiful.
She put her hand on Wu Mu's hand. Wu Mu's fingertips were rough and her palm was dry and warm.
She raised the corners of her lips and smiled with tears in her eyes. She grabbed Wu Mu's hand and stood up, stepped out of the box, and hugged him tightly.
My whole body was shaking.
It is the trembling of tears of joy.
This was Wu Mu, alive, right in front of her. He helped her avoid the search, stretched out his hand to her, and held her in his arms.
Her tears began to fall uncontrollably again, falling silently on Wu Mu's shoulders.
Wu Mu lowered his eyes, hugged Ye Chuyan quietly, and whispered: "Ayan, don't cry, I'm here."
