The fifth uncle was born as an hunter, and is good at all kinds of traps.

He told Bai Xian that if he was afraid at night, he would bury a circle of traps outside, but he just had to be careful.

Bai Xian is serious about learning from him.

After two days, no prey was hit at night, indicating that the beast would not approach here.

But the movement of the forest and the roar in the distance still made Gu Yun scared. She couldn't sleep at night, and she couldn't sleep even when there was sunlight during the day, and she was very lethargic.

Even if Bai Xian lives next to her.

"...Can you sleep with me?" Gu Yun took the initiative to ask him that night.

Bai Xian's whole body froze from head to toe.

He held his breath.

"I'm afraid." Gu Yun said, "We have two quilts, so it's okay."

When she spoke, her face was already flushed.

That night, Bai Xian really moved all his bedding.

After taking a brief shower, Gu Yun climbed into the bed first.

This is not a bed, just a layer of wood on the ground, bamboo boards on the wood, and then a thick layer of thatch, which is not comparable to the home.

After she fell asleep, Bai Xian came up.

He was neatly dressed.

There were still noises at night. It might be that Gu Yun had not slept much in the past few days and was in a bad mood, or it might be that the people around her kept her safe.

On her side it was quiet, on Bai Xian's side there was a flood of waves.

There was a thump in his ear, and his heart beat like a drum. The evil thoughts in my heart began to bubbling again.

He fantasized about being entwined with her five fingers, skin-to-skin.

Across each other's quilt, his knees could touch her feet.

He hesitated, tentatively bringing his knees closer.

Gu Yun didn't react.

Bai Xian leaned over and waited for a long time, but could not calm down.

Later, he heard Gu Yun's even and shallow breathing, and she was already asleep.

He couldn't sleep well.

When it was almost dawn, he felt the movement of the people around him, and Gu Yun rolled over several times.

Bai Xian asked her, "What's wrong?"

Gu Yun sat up: "I'm so thirsty."

Bai Xian hurried to pour water for her.

After drinking water, they both lost sleep. The night was coming to an end, and they lay silently, feeling that their breathing rhythm was not right, so they held their breaths.

Then, Gu Yun asked Bai Xian, "Let's... do we want to live together?"

Baekhyun doesn't trust his ears anymore.

He didn't seem to understand the sentence: "What, what?"

"Let's..." Gu Yun's voice trembled, "I can decide my own affairs, how about you? Do you want to..."

Bai Xian heard it clearly this time.

He lifted his quilt, rolled over and overwhelmed her.

Gu Yun's breath suddenly stopped.

His hand, lightly stroked her hair, then her cheek...  

His palms were hot, Gu Yun's cheeks were slightly cold, and she shivered.

"Miss Gu, I'm here this time, and even if I die, I won't leave you." Bai Xian's voice was a little choked, "If you are willing to follow me, I can die for you."

His hand, still resting on her cheek, gently brushed her hair and ears, and then felt wet.

she cried.

Bai Xian was a little nervous: "Miss Gu......"

Gu Yun's voice was so hoarse that it was almost inaudible: "When you left, I was seriously ill. If what you said is sincere, then I...I..."

Her voice was split, and great sadness and joy flooded into her heart, almost blocking her throat.

She finally tried her best: "I will."

Bai Xian's lips fell.

At the beginning, his strategy was very fierce, trying desperately to absorb her breath and linger with her. Slowly, he seemed to calm down a little, and the kiss became long and light.

He lifted Gu Yun's quilt and got into her bed.

Gu Yun felt that this was inappropriate.

But in today's world, what's wrong with it? She closed her eyes slightly, waiting for something.

Bai Xian just hugged her.

He seemed to have found a treasure, kissing her hair and touching her cheek from time to time.

Occasionally, he would use force to hold her tightly, as if he was afraid that this was a dream.

It was getting brighter outside.

The sun rises and the light in the little house is brighter.

Bai Xian let go of Gu Yun: "Miss Gu, I'll go down the mountain to buy something in the town. Are you not afraid of being alone in the mountains during the day?"

"I'm not afraid, you go." Gu Yun said.

He left and didn't come back until dusk.

The sun gradually turned to the west, and the sunset shrouded the entire field of vision, which also gave Gu Yun a warm glow.

The waves rose from the pine sea, and the sunset melted gold. Gu Yun was not in the mood to appreciate such a beautiful scene.

She is worried about Baekhyun.

Haven't come back for so long, what happened? Was it found by the people in the village?

At this moment, she heard footsteps, and Bai Xian came back with a big burden and sweating profusely.

All Gu Yun's worries vanished.

She stood up to meet him.

Seeing that his hair was wet with sweat, Gu Yun said, "Walk in such a hurry?"

"Yes, I'm afraid you'll be worried." Bai Xian said, "Miss Gu, I'm sweating, so I went to the mountain stream in front of me to wash."

Gu Yun said yes: "I'll cook, you can go."

After all, she was busy in the main room.

She would love to see what Baekhyun bought.

Baekhyun washes up soon.

During the meal, he wanted to say something several times, but he stopped.

Gu Yun didn't speak.

After the two of them finished eating in silence, Bai Xian put down his chopsticks and his voice was a little soft: "Miss Gu, what you said this morning... have you regretted it?"

Gu Yun's face was also inexplicably hot.

How could she go back on it?

This is the secret in her heart, obscure and deep. She was sick because of it, but also because of its sweetness.

I finally said it, how can I pull it back?

"No." she said.

Bai Xian seemed to be relieved: "Then... I don't want to wait. What kind of etiquette is needed for marriage, we will make up for it later. I want to pray to you, God testifies, if I lose you, I will not be well die."

Gu Yun was a little panicked.

She wasn't ready yet.

But what to prepare?

There was war everywhere, and her mother and sister were thousands of miles away in Peiping, and it was impossible to come back.

Baekhyun has no parents.

None of the people in the village, except the fourth uncle, were her close relatives, and she didn't need their consent.

"I believe you." Gu Yun whispered.

Bai Xian opened the burden.

The reason why he came back so late is because he made two wedding suits. He gave double the money and watched the tailors make them.

No matter how hard a tailor works, he still has to stitch every stitch, and he can't finish it in three or five days. In the end, the tailor called out his wife and daughter to work together.

The work isn't the best, but it's decent.

He also bought red candles, happy characters, etc. for weddings.

In addition, he bought Gu Yun jewelry: gold bracelets, necklaces, rings, and a jade bracelet. This is his betrothal gift. The girl's family needs these vulgar things for a big wedding.

"In a hurry, I only prepared these." He felt guilty, "Tonight, let's pray to the heavens and the earth, okay?"

Gu Yun had a solid understanding of the feelings of the newlyweds -- apprehension, but also a vague expectation and joy.

She nodded: "Okay."
