It was already late at night when the flight arrived in Beicheng. Unlike Haicheng, Beicheng only really sees warmer weather in April and May every year.

Today the streets and alleys are still covered in silver.

In this world of ice and snow, even in cities, everyone will invariably reduce the number of trips at night.

On the endless sea-crossing bridge, the distance between cars is very far. The lights of the cars shine on the asphalt road, making it look particularly quiet in the silver-white sky and earth.

Mo Wenchu ​​never knew that Gu Jue's hometown was in Beicheng.

The car drove for more than an hour, and the surrounding buildings were no longer high-rise buildings, but some low-rise houses, sparsely scattered in the endless wilderness.

There are tall birch trees on both sides of the road. The trunks are so straight and straight that they almost reach into the sky.

The snowfield reflected the cold moonlight, and for a moment Mo Wenchu ​​even had the illusion that she was traveling during the day.

If it were in the past, Mo Wenchu ​​would have fallen asleep soundly in the passenger seat, but recently her sleep system has suffered from disorders, and now even though she is exhausted, she is not sleepy at all.

Gu Jue glanced at her, "Why don't you sleep?"

"I want to remember this road so that I won't be trapped in the mountains by you and unable to escape."

Mo Wenchu's tone was full of exhaustion. In order not to arouse Gu Jue's suspicion, she could only say this.

Gu Jue did not seem suspicious and continued to drive the car seriously.

"How much longer?"

"Half an hour."

She really didn't know where Gu Jue was going to take her, so Mo Wenchu ​​could only continue to lean on the seat and fall asleep.

About half an hour later, the car finally stopped.

There is a villa in the forest with stone walls. In front of the villa is a wide open space with only a few footprints on it.

"Where is this?"

"Ancestral House."

After finishing speaking, Gu Jue got out of the car, and Mo Wenchu ​​quickly followed.

She originally thought that the old house where Mrs. Gu lived in the past was the Gu family's ancestral home, but she didn't expect that their real ancestral home was actually in this mountain forest.

My feet stepped on the thick snow, making a crunching sound.

The huge villa was deserted, and there wasn't even a servant. However, the room was clean and tidy, and it was obvious that someone had come to clean it before.

The ice and snow outside were completely isolated, and the room was as warm as spring. Mo Wen immediately took off her heavy down jacket after entering the door.

The sunken sofa was located in the center of the living room. Mo Wenchu ​​sat on it and looked at the room.

The decoration style here is a bit back to nature. The walls are rough stone surfaces with different textures, but they also have their own style.

On her left side, there was even a fireplace, but it was not turned on at this time. It was dark inside, the traces left by the fire.

"The bedroom is upstairs. It's getting late. Let's go upstairs and rest first."

After Gu Jue placed his luggage, he stood at the stairs and said to Mo Wenchu.

"What on earth did you bring me here for?"

"New Year."

Gu Jue's answer left Mo Wenchu ​​confused, and then she heard him add -

"By the way, I want to talk to you about your father. There are no outsiders here to disturb you, so it's suitable to talk about some private things."

She didn't know if it was Mo Wenchu's illusion, but she always felt that Gu Jue deliberately emphasized the pronunciation of the word "private".

Seeing that Mo Wenchu ​​was still leaning on the sofa, Gu Jue waved, "Why are you still standing there? Are you going to let me go over and pick you up?"

"..." Mo Wenchu ​​stood up depressedly and retorted as she approached Gu Jue, "I'm not that narcissistic."

The bedroom door opened, and Mo Wenchu ​​looked at the decoration style that was in line with her home. If it weren't for the vast white snow outside the tall floor-to-ceiling window, she would really doubt that she had never come to Beicheng.

"Together?"

In the bedroom, Gu Jue found pajamas and bath towels from the cupboard, and raised his eyebrows to Mo Wenchu ​​before entering the bathroom.

Mo Wenchu ​​rolled her eyes at the other party and walked away directly.

Not long after, the faint sound of water came from the bathroom.

Mo Wenchu ​​sat on the edge of the bed, holding her chin and looking at the snow outside the window.

The clock on the wall has already pointed to four in the morning, and in more than an hour, we should be able to wait for the sunrise.

This time she came to Beicheng completely unplanned. She didn't have time to bring the medicine she bought before, and she didn't know how long she would stay here. Mo Wenchu ​​was a little worried about her state these days.

Gu Jue is very insightful, and the two of them get along day and night, and it is difficult to hide many things from his eyes.

While thinking about this, I heard the sound of the bathroom door opening behind me.

Mo Wenchu ​​jumped up as if she had been electrocuted. She didn't even look at Gu Jue, but directly picked up the bath towel and pajamas prepared beside her and got into the bathroom.

But the escape was only temporary. She lingered in the bathroom for nearly an hour. The person outside the door was obviously impatient. He raised his voice and threatened, "Wenchu, if you don't come out, I will push the door open and go in."

"

As a last resort, Mo Wenchu ​​had no choice but to walk out.

As soon as she lay down on the bed, Gu Jue hugged her from behind, resting his chin on his shoulder and making a deep voice in his throat, "Insomnia?"

Mo Wenchu's heart tightened, "No."

After adjusting the quilt again, she continued to say guiltily, "Go to sleep."

What Gu Jue just said seemed to be a casual question. He was indeed tired after driving all the way, and he quickly fell asleep peacefully while holding Mo Wenchu ​​in his arms.

Mo Wenchu, on the other hand, kept looking out the window.

I don’t know how much time passed, but the sun streamed in from the window. The rising temperature melted the snow, and the flowing snow dripped from the eaves, making a ticking sound when sitting on the ground.

It was approaching noon, and Gu Jue finally woke up. When he got up, he saw Mo Wenchu's eyes slightly closed, her gaze paused, and she gently turned over and got out of bed.

After Gu Jue left the room, Mo Wenchu ​​opened her eyes again.

The soundproofing of the old villa seems not very good, and the sound from the kitchen downstairs can be heard very clearly.

When the noise in the kitchen gradually stopped, Mo Wenchu ​​climbed out of bed.

Pretending to have just woken up, he came downstairs.

Gu Jue personally brought the prepared breakfast to the table, handed Mo Wenchu ​​a glass of water and sat down.

"You want evidence that Zhao Yi and Shao Yi met, this is it."

Gu Jue pushed the phone in front of Mo Wenchu, and also noticed the exaggerated redness in her eyes.

Due to lack of rest for a long time, Mo Wenchu's head was still a little groggy, but when she saw the photo, she woke up almost immediately.

The photo was taken clearly. On the street, Zhao Yi got into a black Cayenne.
