Gu Nanpei went downstairs and drank a glass of milk. When he went upstairs again, he went outside the study and looked in through the crack in the door, but he saw that Sheng Zhixun was already lying on the desk.

Are you asleep?

Gu Nanpei guessed in his heart and unconsciously pushed the door in.

When I approached, I found that I was indeed asleep.

The man was lying on the desk, pillowing his arm. Under the cover of the dim yellow light, the lines of his side face were soft and beautiful, his eyes were closed tightly, and his long and dense eyelashes were like the wings of a butterfly, trembling slightly, as if dancing, casting a blue and black shadow on his eyes.

Such a sleeping face is so beautiful that it seems as if years have fixed it, fixed it into a picture that will never wither, adding a dazzling color to the dark night.

Gu Nanpei was stunned for a moment. It took a long time to recover. He picked up the blanket on the sofa and carefully covered the man's thin back. He happened to see the book under his arm.

It was a complete book of jokes, about half a finger thick, but he had seen the end page.

It turned out that he had been sitting in his study with unprecedented concentration, reading this complete collection of jokes.

You don't have to think about it. It's for Bai Youning.

Aware of this, Gu Nanpei couldn't tell what he felt, and finally turned into a long sigh.

Just then, Sheng Zhixun moved and slowly raised his head.

He narrowed his sleepy eyes and found Gu Nanpei's existence. He was a little surprised, hoarse and sleepy? When did you come in? "

"Just came in. If you're sleepy, go back to your bedroom." Gu Nanpei replied.

Sheng Zhixun rubbed his sour eyes and seemed to realize that he was asleep.

He sat up straight, stretched, picked up the joke collection on the desk and said, "I'll go to bed after reading the last few pages."

Gu Nanpei glanced at the book in his hand, hesitated for a long time, or couldn't help but ask tentatively, "are you... Reading the complete collection of jokes? Isn't this for Bai Youning? "

Sheng Zhixun replied, "only by understanding her interests and hobbies can we find a common topic with her."

So

After learning Sheng Zhixun's real thoughts, Gu Nanpei could only pull out a dry smile. Suddenly he didn't know what to say.

Sheng Zhixun raised his eyes, looked at her and said, "it's so late, don't you sleep?"

Gu Nanpei suddenly recovered and replied, "I can't sleep. I just went downstairs and drank a glass of milk. I'm ready to go to bed..."

"Go back and have a rest."

"Yes." Gu Nanpei nodded. "You also... Have a rest early."

Then he turned and went out of the study.

The next day, Sheng Zhixun went to Sheng's family early. In the evening, he returned to the villa early and went straight to Bai Youran's bedroom.

When I opened the door, I saw Bai Youran lying on the bed, looking at the joke book with interest, and giggling from time to time.

Seeing her happy, Sheng Zhixun was also happy. After carefully approaching, he whispered, "is the joke book... Good?"

Bai Youran was so frightened by the sudden sound that he immediately raised his head. The smile at the corners of his mouth hasn't faded yet.

Seeing that Bai Youran was frightened by herself, Sheng Zhixun immediately became nervous, for fear that she would cry again.

Who knows, she was just a little frightened, soon returned to normal, and nodded in response to Sheng Zhixun's question.

"Very nice."
