1625 Chinese New Years Eve 6 (1/2)

Long Siye looked at Gu Xijiu's face. Although she looked quite pale, there was nothing wrong with her, so he was less worried. He jokingly asked her, ”What did you dream of? You said in your sleep.”

”What did I say when I slept?”

”I could not hear it clearly, but you mumbled a lot.”

Gu Xijiu rubbed her eyebrows. ”I didn't know I talked in my sleep. Well, it was just a dream.”

She looked at him again and asked, ”Have you been playing the piano for me?”

Long Siye smiled. ”I suddenly felt like playing the piano. Since it is Chinese New Year's Eve, I can take this opportunity to stay up for the new year. Did I disturb your sleep?”

Gu Xijiu stretched her body and sat up. ”Of course not, your music is quite hypnotic.”

”It doesn't sound like praise, but it is an accomplishment to be able to make you sleep soundly…”

Two of them talked and laughed for a while. Gu Xijiu looked around and noticed that Long Siye was quite caring. This pavilion was initially an ordinary pavilion. Now, to let her sleep here, he especially set up a canopy for her. No wonder she felt warm. She never expected to celebrate her Chinese New Year's Eve at this place. However, it was quite a meaningful night.

Gu Xijiu was no longer sleepy, so she got up and asked Long Siye to go back to rest. However, Long Siye refused to go. ”It is quite common that I don't sleep for a few nights. Moreover, I still have to stay up for the new year. If you feel bored, why don't we play chess?”

He pulled out a chessboard and pointed to it. ”Please?”

Gu Xijiu was quite good at playing chess. In the past, she used to challenge Long Xi. Both of their skills were comparable with each other, so they had won and lost to each other before.

It was a long and quiet night, so it was a good time to play chess. Thus, Gu Xijiu agreed to play with him.
