Yun Chi and Hua Yan dismounted the carriage. After entering through Chuihua Gate, Hua Yan paused and looked at Yun Chi.
Today, Yun Chi had several times nearly reached out to hold Hua Yan's hand, but each time, when she turned to him with a smile, he forcefully pulled back, refraining. After sending An Shuli away from the Capital City, he had been very silent on the journey. Now seeing Hua Yan stop, he looked at her with a pair of warm, moist eyes.
Hua Yan looked back at him with a smile and said softly, "The day is still young, not yet time for lunch. Let's go to the Library Pavilion! Show me the books you read yesterday, would that be alright?"
Yun Chi slightly curled his lips and, after a moment of silence under her smiling gaze, he nodded.
Hua Yan led the way, walking towards the Library Pavilion.
