Long Siye looked at Gu Xijiu’s face. Although she looked quite pale, there was nothing wrong with her, so he was less worried. He jokingly asked her, “What did you dream of? You said in your sleep.”

“What did I say when I slept?”

“I could not hear it clearly, but you mumbled a lot.”

Gu Xijiu rubbed her eyebrows. “I didn’t know I talked in my sleep. Well, it was just a dream.”

She looked at him again and asked, “Have you been playing the piano for me?”

Long Siye smiled. “I suddenly felt like playing the piano. Since it is Chinese New Year’s Eve, I can take this opportunity to stay up for the new year. Did I disturb your sleep?”

Gu Xijiu stretched her body and sat up. “Of course not, your music is quite hypnotic.”

“It doesn’t sound like praise, but it is an accomplishment to be able to make you sleep soundly...”

Two of them talked and laughed for a while. Gu Xijiu looked around and noticed that Long Siye was quite caring. This pavilion was initially an ordinary pavilion. Now, to let her sleep here, he especially set up a canopy for her. No wonder she felt warm. She never expected to celebrate her Chinese New Year’s Eve at this place. However, it was quite a meaningful night.

Gu Xijiu was no longer sleepy, so she got up and asked Long Siye to go back to rest. However, Long Siye refused to go. “It is quite common that I don’t sleep for a few nights. Moreover, I still have to stay up for the new year. If you feel bored, why don’t we play chess?”

He pulled out a chessboard and pointed to it. “Please?”

Gu Xijiu was quite good at playing chess. In the past, she used to challenge Long Xi. Both of their skills were comparable with each other, so they had won and lost to each other before.

It was a long and quiet night, so it was a good time to play chess. Thus, Gu Xijiu agreed to play with him.

Long Siye found that she was not in good condition when she played in the game tonight. She kept losing pieces and did not have any strategy. Playing chess was like battling in war. One could easily expose their state of mind to their opponent based on their style of play.

Long Siye could see that Gu Xijiu had a confused mind now. Both of them played a few matches, and Gu Xijiu lost all the games. She was bombarded several times by Long Siye.

Gu Xijiu rubbed her forehead that was already reddish. She looked to the outside and said, “Finally, the day has arrived!”

Long Siye gazed at her. “Yes, no matter how dark the night is, there will always be a bright day coming after.”

Gu Xijiu smiled. “It sounds like a motivational quote. Since when did you become a motivational guru?”

Both of them chatted for a while before Gu Xijiu suddenly looked up and asked Long Siye, “How is the clone body I asked you to make?”

Long Siye was stunned and said, “It is almost finished...” He sized Gu Xijiu up. He had realized that Gu Xijiu’s current body was her original body. There was nothing wrong with it.

Five months ago, Gu Xijiu found Long Siye and asked him to create a clone for her. At the time, Long Siye was very puzzled and asked her what she was trying to do. She did not answer him. She only said that it might be useful in the future.

Long Siye would never reject her, so he made it for her. He was more skilled in making a clone body now, so he managed to create one in five months.

Gu Xijiu stood up and said, “Bring me there.”

...

It was a familiar ice room with a familiar crystal coffin. A familiar face lied inside the crystal coffin. Gu Xijiu stood in front of the crystal coffin and looked at the “beauty” in it...
