Chapter 19: Stars in the Sky

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

When Hua Jiujiu woke up, he saw the stars in the sky. For the first time, she felt that the night sky could be so beautiful.

Wasn’t it great to be alive?

She tilted her head and saw a tall figure with his back facing her not far away. She knew that this was the man who had saved her.

“What’s your name?” Speaking of which, they had crossed paths so many times, but they still didn’t know each other’s names.

Lou Sijin turned around and looked at Hua Jiujiu, who was still lying on the ground.

Could it be that he was still not feeling well?

There seemed to be a doctor in the village. Did he need her to bring him to the doctor?

“My name is Hua Jiujiu.” Seeing that he was silent, Hua Jiujiu spoke first.

Lou Sijin raised his eyebrows.

Didn’t this little woman not have a name?

Was this a name she gave herself?

‘Jiu’? That meant wine.

Why did she like this word?

However, he did not ask. Instead, he opened his thin lips slightly and said, “Lou Jin.”

Lou Jin.

This name did not sound like it belonged to an ordinary person.

“Then I’ll call you Ah Jin.”

Lou Sijin did not answer. Instead, he looked at her quietly, obviously wondering why she was still lying on the grass.

“Ah Jin, lie down.” Hua Jiujiu didn’t have any friends here. Lou Sijin was the first friend she knew, so she couldn’t help but want to share some beautiful things with him.

Lou Sijin did not move. His face was filled with confusion.

Hua Jiujiu continued to call out to him. “Quickly lie down.”

Lou Sijin pursed his thin lips and sat down beside Hua Jiujiu.

Obviously, he could not accept the fact that he had to lie down.

Hua Jiujiu did not force him. Instead, she said, “Look up.”

Lou Sijin looked up.

The sky was filled with stars.

As usual.

“It’s beautiful, right?” Hua Jiujiu said contentedly.

She had never seen such a beautiful starry sky. Indeed, ancient times without environmental pollution were different.

Lou Sijin turned to look at Hua Jiujiu. She smiled and closed her eyes, as if she had already thrown herself into the starry sky and was swimming freely.

This state of mind…

Lou Sijin’s tightly pursed lips relaxed slightly as he continued to look up at the night sky. He could not help but relax.

Then, he realized that for the first time in so many years that he could be this relaxed. For the first time, he felt that there was something beautiful in this world.

Lou Sijin was amazed.

What kind of ability did this little woman have to make him let down his guard?

The silence made Hua Jiujiu open her eyes and look over. She saw that he had already thrown himself into the starry sky.

This man’s heart was not that cold.

That was true. Otherwise, why would he save her?

“Thank you,” Hua Jiujiu said softly.

Lou Sijin turned around and looked into her eyes.

Immediately, he felt that they were so beautiful, like the stars in the sky.

How did she manage to put the stars into her eyes?

Could she put something else in them?

He realized that he had lost his composure.

Lou Sijin retracted his gaze and emotions. He stood up and walked towards the village.

When Hua Jiujiu saw this, she also got up and followed behind Lou Sijin.

A big and small figure.

One after the other.

It was quite harmonious.

It was quite harmonious because they did not say a word along the way. It was so quiet that they could hear each other’s breathing.

Hua Jiujiu thought that this man was not good with words.

However, looking at Lou Sijin’s tall back, she couldn’t help but wonder what kind of face he had under his hair and beard.
