"Teacher, senior brother?" Yun Xingxi, who was called by Yun Hengguang with a chuckling, had a red face, and seemed a little nervous. His index fingers were unconsciously bit by bit, with eager eyes but dodging at Lou Wuchen, "Mom said you have a gift... is it true?"

Lou Wuchen scratched his head hesitantly: "Ah...well, that's right..."

"——!" It seemed that because the news was confirmed was too strong, Yun Xingxi did not notice some strangeness in Lou Wuchen. The girl suppressed the excitement in her chest and asked calmly, "Yes, what is it?"

"I don't know if you like it..." Lou Wuchen took out an exquisite puppet from the special compartment in the box and handed it to Yun Xingxi, "This is it...here."

"This is……"

Yun Xingxi was very curious, but he was a little scared and did not dare to extend his hand. Finally, with the encouragement of Lou Wuchen's eyes, Yun Xingxi took a deep breath and opened the Kansou that were put together.

The folded sides slowly opened like a big door, and what was presented to the girl was an exquisite landscape painting - but for Yun Xingxi, this painting was too magnificent and too real to compare it with the "painting" she had in her impression.

In this painting, countless beautiful lights bloom on the night sky that should have been lonely. Some are dazzling and some are quiet and gentle. But no matter where you see, they are endless spots of light. Even if you try to avoid them and look at the bottom of the lightless curtain, you can always find a glimmer of light shining dimly and stubbornly, and together with other shining lights, building a deep and vast depth of field.

——Starry Sky! At the first glance of seeing all this, the girl felt confident in her heart: This is the star that the senior brother mentioned, this is the starry sky that the senior brother mentioned!

And below this starry sky, about one-third of the position near the bottom of the entire picture, the slightly dim starry sky extends downward symmetrically with the top, and the horizon connects the starry sky and the reflection like the edge of a mirror. At the junction of this starry sky and the starry sky, a slender figure stands slanted, stretching his hands as if he wants to go with the wind, embracing the world!

Standing in front of this painting, Yun Xingxi felt like he had become a person in the painting for a moment, and all the noise around him had disappeared. He was right and indeed standing in such a world, embracing such a starry sky!

"This, this-" After a long time, Yun Xingxi came to his senses and looked at Lou Wuchen in shock and incredible ways, "Is this... really for me?"

Lou Wuchen nodded. He had seen an entry for the Greenwich Observatory Photography Competition in his previous life. The background of the shooting should be the Bolivian Uyuni Salt Marsh known as the "Mirror of the Sky". The miraculous natural scenery combined with the starry sky was so beautiful that it was almost suffocating. This painting is a replica restored by Lou Wuchen's cheating memory based on the cheating memory of the Guiyuan period. The only difference is that the figure in the picture slightly modified to the figure of the girl in front of him...

"Senior Brother!" Yun Xingxi hugged Hua in his arms with a happy expression, "Thank you for your Hua! I like it very much..."

Lou Wuchen's body stiffened for a moment and said awkwardly: "Actually, this painting is not a gift..."

Yun Xingxi was stunned for a moment.

Lou Wuchen signaled Yun Xingxi to open the Cambodian post, pointed to a line of small words in the lower right corner of the picture and said, "Actually, what I wanted to show you was the real starry sky - it wasn't right to say that it was the real starry sky, but it was still just a scene that looked like the starry sky - but it was really a little busy during this period and there was no condition to make it, so I can only open an IOU first... Sorry."

Yun Xingxi gently stroked the small words "Pulantai Sky Fairy Museum's premiere invitation to Yun Xingxi". After a while, tears suddenly fell. Lou Wuchen suddenly panicked and quickly wanted to say something, but Yun Xingxi hugged him: "You're okay senior brother... I'm just very happy... I'm really happy..."

—————————————————

Late at night, the roof of Yun Mansion.

Youxue sat quietly on the water, looking up at the unchanging dark night sky and wondering what he was thinking. At this moment, someone suddenly visited Lengji's roof and sat back to back behind Youxue.

Youxue didn't look back, but just said with a little blame: "If you don't accompany you, what are you doing outside here?

?”

"Hingxi has already rested. I want to say..." Lou Wuchen paused, "...a gift."

"A gift? I think Xingxi likes it very much, isn't it good too?"

"No." Lou Wuchen shook his head, "It's a gift to you sister."

"mine?"

Youxue turned around in surprise, but saw Lou Wuchen turning around with a huge puppet in his arms. It was a very cute white cat puppet, and his appearance made Youxue floating with a sense of déjà.

"This is..."

Youxue hesitantly stretched out her hand and gently touched the forehead of the cat puppet between her fingers. Youxue liked cats when she was a child, or when she was a child in a certain fantasy, but because the doctor said that she had a conflict with the cat (in my brother's inexplicable words, she was allergic to cats), she could not keep cats at home, so for a while she wanted a cat puppet - but this puppet...

"It was the birthday gift I gave you at that time... my father." Lou Wuchen's voice was tense, with some kind of calmness that deliberately suppressed his emotions. "Although I couldn't give it out, I secretly saw it in the study - with his letter."

Lou Wuchen pushed the doll to Youxue, blocking the view between the two: "Although this is just something I recovered from my memory... Happy New Year, sister."

Yuxue was completely stunned. This girl who had always frozen all her sadness and weakness with her fragile strength as ice, was suddenly penetrated by some long-lost emotion.

She trembled and took the cute cat puppet, some familiar temperature seemed to revive in her hands, melting all the ice!

"——!" Youxue suddenly hugged Lou Wuchen tightly with the momentum that was almost about to squeeze him into his body, as if he would disappear as soon as he let go, and he tried his best to do his best. Two lines of clear tears accompanied by the cry that finally let go, dripping into the dark night, "Xiaolou...wu...Xiaolou..."

"It's okay, it's okay, it's okay, sister..." Lou Wuchen gently patted Youxue's back and said softly amid the sporadic sound of cannons in the distance, "It's gone... Now it's..."

——It’s the new year.
