After struggling for almost an hour, Gu Zhiyin took out two pieces of paper and stuffed them into her hand.
He said nothing, and stared at her closely with a hint of lust in his dark eyes.
It's like he's afraid she won't like it, but also like he's trying to reassure her that it's okay, and wants to tell her not to be disgusted or afraid.
"Uncle Gu is almost here, isn't he?" Mu Ning raised his head and asked.
His Adam's apple rolled, he held her hand and said hoarsely: "Not next time."
Mu Ning stroked him, "It doesn't matter, Uncle Gu. Although you always forced me to do this in the past, which I didn't like very much, but now I want to take the initiative to love you. I know you have been holding back on this for a long time. I I want to make you happy, and besides, haven’t I done this many times before?”
Gu Zhiyin lowered his eyes in self-reproach and whispered: "Silly girl, stop talking."
Mu Ning didn't know that Gu Zhiyin's psychological disorder came from his guilt for her.
She was as happy as if she had achieved a small achievement.
The man could finally relax and let her do this for him.
Mu Ning wiped him clean and lay obediently in his arms.
Gu Zhiyin hugged Mu Ning tightly and lowered his head to kiss her lips.
Mu Ning's cell phone rang, she reached for it and opened it in Gu Zhiyin's arms.
It was the message Lao Wang sent her, "Are you going to Qilan Temple tomorrow? There happens to be a Dharma gathering on the fifteenth day of the lunar month."
Mu Ning replied to him, "Qilan Temple?" She seemed to have heard of it when she was a child.
Lao Wang: "Yes, it is the most famous temple in Tian County. If you go there to worship Buddha, your wishes will be very effective."
Mu Ning asked Gu Zhiyin, "Old Wang asked us if we want to go to Qilan Temple."
Gu Zhiyin buried himself in her neck, closed his eyes and whispered: "What are you doing there?"
"What can I do in the temple? Burn incense and worship Buddha."
He pondered for a moment, "I don't believe in these things."
Mu Ning said: "You can pray for wealth and peace. I heard it's very effective."
Gu Zhiyin was quiet for a moment and asked, "Can I ask for anything?"
"Logically, yes."
He suddenly changed his mind, "Let's go."
Mu Ning sent a message to Lao Wang, "We plan to go, what time will we leave tomorrow?"
"The temple is on the top of Qilan Mountain. I checked the weather. You should go early tomorrow. You can also watch the sunrise and the sea of clouds."
Mu Ning asked: "What time?"
"Can you get up at four o'clock? The car can only drive halfway up the mountain. You have to climb up the rest of the way."
Mu Ning's eyes widened when he saw four o'clock, "Four o'clock?!"
"Yes, I will pick you up at sunrise from six to six-thirty. It will take another hour to drive to Qilan Mountain."
Mu Ning became entangled, and she asked Gu Zhiyin's opinion, "Uncle Gu, I want to go to the mountains to watch the sunrise tomorrow, but I have to get up at four o'clock."
"Is Ning Ning afraid that she won't be able to get up?"
"I'm afraid we won't be able to get up." Mu Ning reminded him, "It's already half past ten."
"So it's time for us to go to sleep." Gu Zhiyin kissed her forehead, "I'll wake you up tomorrow."
"But will it be very tiring, because we have to climb mountains..."
"Ning Ning, if you want to watch the sunrise, then let's go watch it. If there are difficulties, we will overcome them."
Gu Zhiyin's words made her no longer entangled. After she replied to Lao Wang's message, Gu Zhiyin charged her mobile phone and leaned over to turn off the light.
"Uncle Gu." Mu Ning called him in the darkness.
"Um?"
"What do you want to ask for?"
Gu Zhiyin smiled and said, "It's nothing."
"Tell me, what made you suddenly change your mind?"
Gu Zhiyin hugged her, and his deep voice sounded particularly gentle in the dark night, "Then answer me first and convince me to go. What do you want to ask for?"
"It won't work if you say it."
"Then you still ask me."
Mu Ning pursed his lips, "Chatting with you takes a lot of time. Go to sleep!"
Gu Zhiyin laughed softly, and Mu Ning slowly fell asleep listening to his laughter.
…
Mu Ning felt that he had just closed his eyes, and it seemed that he was woken up before he fell asleep.
She touched her phone and saw that it was exactly four o'clock.
Gu Zhiyin had already washed himself and even put on his clothes. He sat on the edge of the bed. Mu Ning rubbed his eyes and looked at him sleepily. It took him a long time to realize what he said, "Uncle Gu, have you been awake all night? ?”
Gu Zhiyin chuckled, "Sleep."
"Then what time did you get up?"
"Thirty-thirty."
Mu Ning was confused, "Why did you get up so early? Isn't it four o'clock?"
Gu Zhiyin pinched her nose and said, "I know you will stay in bed, so I have to leave time for you, a lazy little kid, to get up."
"How can you get up so early? Aren't you sleepy?"
"I used to work overtime, and sometimes it would be early in the morning when I came back from entertainment. I'm used to it."
Mu Ning whimpered, grabbed his hand and said coquettishly, "I'm so sleepy...Uncle Gu, how about we..."
Gu Zhiyin pinched her mouth and said, "Don't say no."
Mu Ning threw away his hand and rolled on the bed with a sad face, "Uuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuuu, I am sealed by this bed. I can't do it anymore. I can't get up..."
Before the word "come" came out of her mouth, Mu Ning was picked up horizontally, her throat choked, and she was carried to the bathroom.
Gu Zhiyin put her on the marble table and put a towel under her butt to prevent her from catching cold.
Then brush her teeth and wash her face.
"Well."
Mu Ning held a bird's nest head on her head, closed her eyes, opened her mouth, and asked the man to brush her teeth.
After combing her hair, Gu Zhiyin carried her to the bed and helped her get dressed.
Gu Zhiyin was already very familiar with doing this, so he moved very quickly. However, Mu Ning was a little disobedient. She was still in her dream and her body was swaying, so Gu Zhiyin had to take out his hand to help her.
When Mu Ning opened her groggy eyes, she was already in the car.
"Why did I set off as soon as I opened my eyes?"
This silly girl still can't find the north and the south.
Gu Zhiyin put a box of milk and bread in her hand, "Push your stomach, don't eat too much, it's easy to vomit on the mountain road."
Mu Ning looked at the breakfast in his hand in surprise, "When did you buy it?"
"I asked Lao Wang to buy it."
Mu Ning leaned her head on Gu Zhiyin's shoulder, "How thoughtful."
She looked out the window at the dim street lights and the stars in the dark night, and felt a different experience.
They were in a remote county town. The road was very narrow. The houses on both sides were low and low. There was no one on the street. She and Gu Zhiyin were sitting in the car like this, drinking milk and gnawing bread. She felt an ordinary but extraordinary feeling. Down-to-earth happiness.
"Let's rest for a while. I'll call you when we get there."
Gu Zhiyin held her on his lap and let her lean into his arms. Mu Ning was very sleepy, but couldn't sleep well. Gu Zhiyin patted her back and coaxed her to sleep.
"Mr. Gu, you are so kind to your wife." Lao Wang glanced at the rearview mirror.
Gu Zhiyin smiled and said nothing, not because he didn't want to talk, but because he was afraid of disturbing the little one in his arms.
The car reached the mid-level pavilion in Qilan Mountain, and it couldn't go up any further.
Lao Wang showed them the way, "You go up this plank road and walk another kilometer to the Heaven Staircase. There are 999 steps in the Heaven Staircase. It was built by the last emperor for his favorite concubine. It symbolizes supremacy and eternity. You can pray for blessings and wishes during the climb.”
"Many young couples climb the Heavenly Stairs together to pray for long-term love. Once you climb up, you will reach the top of the mountain. You can go to Qilan Temple to offer incense and worship Buddha."
Mu Ning and Gu Zhiyin followed the plank road and reached the so-called heavenly steps.
It's not as beautiful as it was said, it's just a staircase made of stone slabs.
Mu Ning looked up at the steep, high, endless staircase, touched his chin and said seriously: "From our architectural point of view, the slope of this staircase is seriously illegal."
Gu Zhiyin glanced at her and said, "Is this the reason for Ning Ning to back down?"
Mu Ning simply stopped pretending and was about to cry, "I think it's okay not to watch the sunrise!"
She turned around and was about to leave, but Gu Zhiyin grabbed her and said, "Where are you running?"
"I...I want to go around the neighborhood."
"It's all here."
"Uncle Gu, if we are sincere and sincere, we don't need this heavenly level!"
"no."
She wailed in despair, "My legs are short, my physical strength is not good, I failed junior high school physical education, I will die suddenly on the way!"
Help, let her go!
