She is lonely

Chapter 525 A Red Bean, Wants to Single Out This Universe 204
After Gu Cen put the little guy to sleep, he came out of the house and sat in front of the stone steps by himself, slightly turning his head to look at the fine snow drifting in the courtyard.

Gu Cen watched quietly for a while, and couldn't help burying her head and circled herself. She lay between her knees and let herself fall into the darkness.

But the icy wind still penetrated into the muscles and bones, making Gu Cen feel chills.

Gu Cen sat in front of the stone steps for a long time until Bai Xin came to her with a box of gifts. Bai Xin was shocked when she saw Gu Cen sitting outside the door with her hair buried in a daze, and went to call Gu Cen After several beeps, Gu Cen raised his head.

Gu Cen's eye sockets were a little red, but his pupils were clear and pale, as if covered with a thin layer of frost.

Gu Cen glanced at Bai Xin indifferently, raised his finger and pressed the corner of his eye, and asked, "What's wrong?"

Bai Xin was stunned for a moment, then handed the things in her hand to Gu Cen, "This is from... Roulian, but it's not signed."

However, even if there is no signature, Bai Xin can probably guess that the person who gave the gift should be the owner of Roulian.

She remembered that around this time last year, the owner also sent a gift.

At first, Bai Xin thought it might be some special season for Qin Zhao, but in fact, Gu Cen didn't do anything at that time.

Therefore, even Bai Xin couldn't figure out why the owner of the villa had chosen this time for two consecutive years to give gifts to Mrs. Gu.

Gu Cen took the gift in Bai Xin's hand calmly, looked down at the word Gu Cen engraved on the wooden box quietly, and did not move for a long time.

And Bai Xin originally planned to retreat silently at this time, not wanting to disturb Gu Cen, but before she left, Gu Cen stopped her.

Gu Cen ordered Bai Xin to go on and ask the people below to re-repair the courtyard wall, and emphasized to eliminate the possibility of people being able to climb over the wall.

Hearing these words, Bai Xin was stunned for a moment, it wasn't that he didn't think of the Mr. Lin who appeared today, but in the end Bai Xin didn't ask any more questions, just agreed and said yes, and then retreated.

Gu Cen did not open the wooden box right away, she placed the wooden box beside the stone steps beside her, still in a daze quietly.

After a long time, Gu Cen finally closed his eyes, took the wooden box back to the Book Pavilion, and wrote a letter to the owner in Roulian.

On the ninth day of the twelfth lunar month, the snow in Jiangcheng was slightly heavier than usual.

Gu Cen was busy preparing for the expedition these few days, but Qin Bao asked her several times awkwardly, and Gu Cen understood that the little guy knew about this day.

Therefore, Gu Cen had to put aside the affairs in the general camp for a while, and set aside a day to spend with the little guy.

Qin Bao pulled her into the bookcase, climbed up on the stool, opened his small book shelf, and after poking around for a long time, he finally found the gift she had prepared for several days.

Qin Bao stood on the stool, holding the gift in his two small hands and offering it. He opened his eyes wide, looked at Gu Cen without blinking, and said a little shyly, "Here."

Gu Cen froze for a moment, stretched out his hand to take it, and lowered his head to look at it seriously.

It is a peace talisman embroidered with koi carps, with a small bulge, and two milky white beads on the tassel. Gu Cen grasped it, and the smooth tassel lines shuttled between his fingers.

Gu Cen gently held the peace talisman in his hand, feeling a little unspeakably sad in his heart.
