20 mins passed easily, but the two more hours of waiting was painful.
Ye Jiayao said to Xia Chunyu, “Maybe you should go and rest in your room. I will call you when it’s ready.”
“You go rest, I will wait here,” Xia Chunyu countered.
“And do what? You’re useless here. I will need to mix this every 30 minutes.”
Xia Chunyu suddenly smiled and said, “Come on, let me take you somewhere.”
“Where? I need to watch the stuff here,” Ye Jiayao protested.
He didn’t bother replying and simply dragged her outside. Xia Chunyu put his arms around her waist and carried her up to the roof nimbly.
“It is cooler here. You can enjoy stargazing and still stay close to whatever you’re making,” Xia Chunyu said.
That’s… that’s actually romantic. Who knew that this bear of a man could actually act all lovey-dovey?
Ye Jiayao leaned against his chest and stared up at the beautiful sky. This kind of view, where the stars were all so clearly visible, was a rare occurrence in the modern age. The heavy pollution has destroyed beautiful sights like this.
The Big Dipper, Vega, Orion, Cygnus… they were all in the same location she has studied before. She felt like she was seeing the same starry sky in a different world. It made her think about what would happen when she dies at this time. Would she ever go back to her original world?
“What are you thinking?” Xia Chunyu asked after a while, breaking the pensive silence they were wrapped in.
“I am wondering if you have stargazed with other people before,” Ye Jiayao lied.
“Of course.”
Ye Jiayao frowned and looked up at him. “With who?”
Xia Chunyu laughed. “It was in the past, there’s no point talking about it now.”
“Whatever. You don’t have to tell me if you don’t want to. I stargazed with other people before, too,” Ye Jiayao mumbled and moved away.
Xia Chunyu grabbed her back and demanded, “With who?”
“It was in the past, there’s no point talking about it now,” Ye Jiayao mocked.
“Was it with that Wei Liujiang?” Xia Chunyu asked angrily.
Ye Jiayao lifted her chin up defiantly. “I asked you first. I’ll tell you if you answer me.”
Xia Chunyu answered roughly, “Who else can I stargaze with? It’s my brothers when we were on night duty during wars. Your turn.”
Ye Jiayao wrinkled her nose at him, unconvinced. He was over 20 years old and from their previous encounters, she knew that he was very experienced. She wasn’t the first woman he had.
“Alright,” Xia Chunyu sighed. “It’s with Qing Liu. When she was first brought into the mansion, she missed her home so much that she goes out in the yard to cry. I felt sorry for her, so to comfort her, I brought her stargazing.”
“Qing Liu? Your servant girl?” Ye Jiayao knew that Young Masters in a big family usually have their servant girls as their enlightening teachers for romantic lessons. If they endear themselves to their charge, they could usually become a mistress or a concubine.
Xia Chunyu nodded.
“Did you have a relationship with her?”
Xia Chunyu hesitated for a second before nodding weakly.
