Chapter 122 - Be Safe, You Two
The sound of Guqin disappeared once the spice burned itself out.
Yun Xiangxiang turned her head aside. She saw Song Mian sitting behind the Guqin where its sound came from.
It was the most ancient seven-stringed Guqin. Yun Xiangxiang didn’t know anything about it. However, she did play in a lot of ancient-era dramas in her previous life. Sometimes they would hire a professional to perform. Of course, it would be pre-recorded sometimes.
Yun Xiangxiang didn’t feel that it was appropriate to judge it since she knew nothing. However, Song Mian’s performance was magical. It made the listeners relax unconsciously.
Yun Xiangxiang felt that Song Mian playing the Guqin and Master Song burning the spices might possibly be the best treatment they could give. Perhaps it was even the first time they did it.
They finally had the flower feast in the Song Family’s manor at noon. Yun Xiangxiang was dazzled when the dishes were served.
All of them had flowers as their main ingredients, no matter if it was stir-fried dishes, soup, or snacks.
It was a collection of peony, yellow chrysanthemum, jasmine, honeysuckle, wintersweet, rose, clove, Chinese rose, Chinese peony…
Yun Xiangxiang who woke up at five the next morning didn’t go to wash herself up or practice first. Instead she went upstairs.
Nobody came to the door when she pressed the doorbell. Her fingerprint was registered in the door’s system. The aroma of dishes welcomed her once she entered. Yun Xiangxiang trotted to the dining hall.
All of the dishes were packed nicely in insulated boxes. A slip on them written by Song Mian read: Remember to eat your breakfast. I’ll make more for you when I return.
A teardrop fell down her cheek. Yun Xiangxiang’s heart felt warm. It stung her.
She only understood that Song Mian left at five because he was making breakfast for her.
Yun Xiangxiang quickly sorted out her thoughts and whipped her phone out before texting Song Mian: I’ll wait for you.
It was Yun Xiangxiang’s first time experiencing missing someone after Song Mian left. It didn’t affect her life however.
She needed to work harder so that the next time Song Mian saw her, she would be a better version of herself.
Learning about that era’s knowledge, figuring out the script, and etiquette training consumed most of Yun Xiangxiang’s time.
The occasional free time was used to call her family and video chatting with Song Mian.
Song Meng and Li Xiangling left dejectedly when they took a weekend off to visit Yun Xiangxiang and saw her learning intensely. They could only wait for her to ask them out when she had time.
Guan Zi said that Yun Xiangxiang had achieved the best results after twenty days of learning with her. Yun Xiangxiang then called Wu Zhao.
Lin Jialiang called her just after she made an appointment with Wu Zhao. He said that they would need to go to Hong Kong University to promote “Justice and Selflessness” which would be premiering in Hong Kong at the end of the month.
