"Go to sleep, I'll wake you when we get there." The voice was exceptionally gentle, full of tolerance and doting.
Smelling the crisp perfume on Su Wanxi, Gu Cheng shook her head a few times and slowly closed her eyes.
Outside the porthole, a continuous sea of clouds filled the sky, and the wings of the plane spread high, as if even the sunlight was rippling.
Su Wanxi looked over her shoulder at the head of light brown hair that shone with gold in the light, and the delicate, curled eyelashes that framed an endearing face. The scene was as beautiful as a painting.
She reached out to straighten Gu Cheng's collar, feeling his gentle, long breaths lightly brush against her fingertips. She unconsciously pursed her lips, and a warm feeling welled up in her beautiful dark eyes.
As a top student who graduated from Lanjiang University of Economics and Business, Su Wanxi believed that her language expression ability was definitely not bad, but if she were asked to describe the person she liked, her vocabulary would suddenly become scarce, and after thinking about it, she could only come up with two simple words.
cute.
Expanding on this, the sentence would be: She's so cute, cute to the core, cute no matter how you look at her.
Suppressing the urge to ruffle the other person's hair, Su Wanxi narrowed her eyes, leaned back in her seat, and closed her eyes to rest.
After an unknown amount of time, as the plane was about to land, Su Wanxi patted the woman's shoulder and whispered, "Cheng, go back to sleep a little later..."
Gu Cheng noticed the movement, first letting out a few soft hums, then slowly moving her head away from Su Wanxi's shoulder.
"...Have we arrived yet?"
Su Wanxi carefully unbuckled her seatbelt, her pink lips parting slightly: "Yes, we should go home now."
Let's return to the prologue of their story, which is also the end of their journey: Lanjiang.
......
At 6:20 p.m., Gu Cheng and Su Wanxi arrived at the villa area in the city center. The door code had not been changed; it was still the same one from a long time ago, a combination of their birthdays.
Dragging her bags into the villa, Gu Cheng looked at the familiar yet unfamiliar living room and her eyes suddenly welled up with tears.
This place holds so many memories for her and Su Wanxi, from their first meeting to their growing understanding, and then to their later conflicts and separation—everything that happened seems like it was just yesterday.
Su Wanxi was also filled with mixed feelings. She put down her scarf, gently hugged Gu Cheng from behind, wrapped her arms around his waist, and pressed her chest against his back.
"What are you standing there for..." the woman whispered gently in his ear, her slender white fingers tucking a few stray strands of hair behind her ear.
"Isn't Orange tired? Why don't you go back to bed and rest for a while?"
After taking a nap and being exposed to the cold wind for a few minutes, Gu Cheng's fatigue had mostly dissipated. She turned around to face Su Wanxi and hugged her even tighter.
"Wanwan, I'm not sleepy anymore."
She tilted her head back and gently pecked at his cherry lips, feeling the warmth and softness of his lips, her heart melting into a pool of spring water.
Seeing Gu Cheng being so proactive, Su Wanxi was unwilling to back down. She gently exhaled through her delicate nose and leaned down to kiss him again.
Overwhelmed with emotion, Gu Cheng placed his hand on Su Wanxi's thigh, which was clad in sheer black stockings. Su Wanxi smiled slightly, used her ability to remove the ring, and then leaned forward to restrain him against the back of the sofa.
"Should we do it here?" Su Wanxi asked her.
Gu Cheng quickly responded with a soft "hmm".
"what ever."
Such an answer would be like a thunderbolt striking the earth, creating an uncontrollable conflagration.
Around 9 p.m., the two finished showering, went to the living room to dry their hair, and then changed into formal attire before heading out.
Perhaps because the Lunar New Year was approaching, the streets were bustling with activity. Gu Cheng and Su Wanxi strolled and chatted in the city where they had once lived.
Looking at her gentle and beautiful wife beside her, Su Wanxi asked her in a soft voice, "Chengzi, I remember you once said you wanted to be a teacher?"
Gu Cheng was slightly taken aback upon hearing this. After a moment, she nodded, her tone tinged with bitterness.
"I may want to, but I only have a high school education..."
As soon as she spoke, Su Wanxi raised her hand and gently pressed her index finger against her lover's lips.
"So, Orange still wants to be a teacher, right?"
Meeting the woman's bright, dark eyes, Gu Cheng paused for a moment, then quickly replied with an "Mm."
Su Wanxi smiled slightly after hearing this and whispered to her, "I asked Ashan to inquire, and there have been new changes to the re-employment arrangements for Awakened Ones."
“Orange can take this route to study at a teacher training college for three years. After graduation, she will enjoy the same employment benefits as fresh graduates.”
Even before they got married, Gu Cheng had talked to Su Wanxi about the future more than once. She said that she wanted to be a teacher when she was in junior high school, and she still does now.
As Gu Cheng's closest lover, Su Wanxi would naturally give her full support.
"Regarding the selection of teacher training colleges, I have compiled a detailed report, including those in Beijing and Lanjiang, as well as other cities..."
"If Orange wants to see it, she can do so anytime. The latest the school can accept is June 30th..."
Gu Cheng listened to Su Wanxi talk the whole way without saying a word, just quietly holding her hand.
As you walk past the milk tea shop on the street corner, the bright streetlights cast long, overlapping shadows of the women.
After Su Wanxi finished speaking, Gu Cheng suddenly stopped, her gaze falling on the other woman's exquisitely crafted Martin boots, and said softly, "Su Wanwan..."
"Ok?"
She moistened her throat and gently bit her pink lips with her pearly teeth.
"If you keep doing this... I'll become more and more dependent on you..."
A perfect lover who cares about you at all times, not just in words, but in deeds.
Gu Cheng felt her heart filled with a feeling of being moved, and even though it was the dead of winter, her limbs felt warm all over.
"With such a wonderful wife as Wanwan, I feel that everything else in the world is nothing special."
The longer she spent time with him, the more she liked him, and she even wanted to be with him every single moment.
After listening to Gu Cheng's blunt remarks, Su Wanxi smiled and patted the woman's head: "I'm not as good as Chengzi makes me out to be."
"The thought that you'll be studying for another three years and have less time to see Orange every day makes me want to secretly delete the document."
P.S. Author's Note: Happy New Year everyone! There's one more chapter in the extra chapters, and the story should be finished tomorrow.
I'd like to recommend a friend's book: "In Genshin Impact, You're a Good Person; No Room for Imagination."
Rhodes, who transmigrated into Genshin Impact, is a man of low purity; he hates vulgar things like violence.
Even under the instigation of the wicked system, all he wanted was a peaceful life.
But one problem after another came knocking.
Gan Yu: "Mr. Rhodes, are you the source of Liyue's evil forces?"
Yun Jin: "If it's Mr. Luo, he could totally play the villain in a play."
Shen He: "Purity, a nonsensical term."
Zhongli: "From a general rational point of view, in the face of this brutal male, everyone is female."
Rhodes: "???"
Chapter 462 (Extra Chapter 20)
Su Wanxi often pondered what possessiveness truly represented in love. Sometimes she wished Gu Cheng would only have eyes for her, while at other times she hoped he wouldn't live solely for her.
This conflict resurfaces every now and then, forcing Su Wanxi to find an answer as soon as possible.
Until the wedding day, she saw the stunningly beautiful girl who descended like a fairy, wearing a pure white wedding dress and champagne-colored high heels.
As his beloved walked gracefully towards him, her brows were like a painting, her skin as white as snow, and every smile and frown seemed to be the only light in the world. Su Wanxi looked at his radiant fiancée in the center of the stage and suddenly realized something.
Love is not a confinement; it exists as a driving force for both lovers to pursue happiness.
Su Wanxi did not want Gu Cheng to be bound by the shackles of love. She should have her own dreams and pursuits, instead of becoming an appendage of marriage or family.
I love you, so I hope you can continue to shine brightly like this, and not let the trivialities of life wear down your passion.
You are the light that once shone upon me, how could I possibly extinguish it with my own hands?
Therefore, when Gu Cheng heard Su Wanxi suggest deleting the document, he didn't believe it at all. He hugged his wife's arm even more intimately, and rested his hair on her shoulder.
"Su Wanwan, you're so kind..."
"Unbeatable in the universe, the best in the world!"
Worried that words wouldn't be enough to express her feelings, Gu Cheng looked up and gave Su Wanxi a quick peck on the cheek when no one was around.
It was clearly intended to ingratiate itself.
The two walked side by side for a while, and soon arrived at an office building. After the Hermit Bureau was demolished, this place became the military's office building, and the surrounding environment had not changed significantly compared to a few years ago.
Gu Cheng and Su Wanxi slowed their pace and walked around the office building a few times, feeling quite sentimental.
"It's been a long time since I've come back to visit."
Gu Cheng's tone was complicated, and she exhaled a puff of white mist from her pink lips.
“I remember the first time Mr. Song brought me here, I was startled by the iris scan in the elevator.”
Su Wanxi's watery eyes rippled slightly upon hearing this: "Is it that scary?" It's just a formality; she really didn't feel anything back then.
Gu Cheng nodded: "It's like watching a movie, just swipe it across the eyes!"
He's incredibly handsome.
But what does this have to do with being scary? Su Wanxi still didn't quite understand: "...Shouldn't oranges look cool?"
"It is cool, but I had just awakened my abilities and turned into a girl. How could I accept so much all at once?"
Even now, Gu Cheng still feels that her ability to digest so much information in just two days is ridiculously calm.
They walked around and chatted for a while about their past work. Su Wanxi said that Gu Cheng's behavior back then was awkward and hesitant, giving her the impression of a shy young girl who had just graduated from university and hadn't experienced the harsh realities of society.
"I only acted that way towards you!" Gu Cheng retorted.
Su Wanxi narrowed her eyes upon hearing this, her tone low and languid: "You blush so easily around Qin Kexin too..."
Gu Cheng wanted to answer "No, it wasn't me, I didn't," but then she suddenly remembered Qin Kexin's carefree personality. The words stuck in her throat, and she couldn't say them.
"Did Orange admit it?"
"..."
