Mu Zhihuan looked at Gu Mingxuan's actions, and for a moment, thought that his eyes had gone blurry, "Did I just wake up!?"

She rolled her eyes at Gu Mingxuan, who then turned his head and looked out the window.

Looking at the back of Mu Zhihuan's head, Gu Mingxuan couldn't help but curl his lips.

As they traveled through several towns, every time they arrived at a town, Mu Zhihuan would have her horse carriage stop, and bring Gu Mingxuan along to the market's powder shop to conduct a round of purchases.

Looking at how she was buying, Gu Mingxuan raised his eyebrows and asked: "Are you planning to open your makeup shop in Great Yan?"

Mu Zhihuan nodded, "You need to earn silver wherever you go! How do you live without money? "

With that, Mu Zhihuan threw all the things in her hands into Gu Mingxuan's hands. She clapped his hands together: "Alright, let's go back to the carriage."

Gu Mingxuan resigned himself to his fate and walked in the direction of the carriage with a pile of things. As far as he could see, the Tuanzi was there leading the Madam Lady, happily buying and shopping.

Seeing such a treatment, Gu Mingxuan could only sigh slightly.

All the way from the town to the forest and then to the desert, the carriage travelled through the vast expanse of yellow Shanghai.

Mu Zhihuan pulled up the corner of the carriage's curtain and a gust of wind blew past. The sand was so big that it almost turned Mu Zhihuan's face into minced meat.

"Ugh …" How much longer will it take to walk around in this desert? "

Although it was autumn, the temperature in the desert was unbearably hot. Especially since the carriage didn't dare to open the window, it could only simmer down like a stewed lamb.

Unlike Mu Zhihuan's anxiety, Tuanzi seemed extremely happy. After all, he had never seen such a place before.

Seeing that Mu Zhihuan was in pain, Gu Yunxuan poured her a cup of water from the water bottle. "Endure it a little longer, there's an inn not far ahead, we can stay there for a while."

Upon hearing that there was an inn, Mu Zhihuan's complexion looked better. She started to miss the train and plane for the 21st century.

He rested his head on Gu Mingxuan's shoulder weakly, tightly hugging Gu Mingxuan's arm that was a little warmer than him. Mu Zhihuan could not help but sigh, "If I had known earlier, I wouldn't have come this far."

Gu Mingxuan also knew that she was speaking out of anger, so he only fanned her with his fan: "Is it that hard to bear?"

Mu Zhihuan curled her lips, "Your body temperature is a little lower than ordinary people, and you have an inner body so naturally you aren't this afraid. I'm just a normal commoner, so I can't compare to you. "

Listening to Mu Zhihuan's nonsense, Gu Mingxuan laughed and pointed to the extremely excited Tuanzi beside him. "If he speaks like that, then what's going on with him?"

When Tuanzi saw the two of them looking at him, he blinked his big eyes in confusion and asked, "What's wrong?"

Looking at her cute and silly look, Mu Zhihuan could not help but let out a long sigh: "This only means that your Gu family is a little strange."

"Good, good, good. We are curious. If you really feel uncomfortable, you might feel a lot better by closing your eyes and resting for a while."

Gu Mingxuan did not argue with her and went along with what she said.

Mu Zhihuan was indeed a little too hot to endure. She closed her eyes, talked about the cool breeze that blew in from that direction, and then gradually fell asleep.

When she woke up, she was already lying on the bed in the inn.

After she got up and looked around to see that there was no one around, Mu Zhihuan put on her clothes and opened the door, only to realize that she was currently on the second floor.

Raising his body and looking down, he saw Gu Mingxuan, Madam Lady and the rest gathered together, as if they were waiting for food.

Mu Zhihuan walked down while still wearing her clothes: "Looks like I got up at the right time."

Gu Mingxuan raised his brows, "En, come and sit. We will be preparing for dinner soon."

Not long after he sat down, he saw a charming middle-aged woman carrying a large plate walking out from inside.

The dishes on the plate weren't extravagant, but they looked quite appetizing.

Only one thing made Mu Zhihuan feel a little weird, it was as if the Lady Boss's gaze was always on Gu Mingxuan.

At first, Mu Zhihuan had thought that she had seen wrongly, but when the Lady Boss put down the last dish and intentionally gave Gu Mingxuan a flirtatious glance before she left, Mu Zhihuan was finally able to confirm her thoughts.

She frowned as she looked at Gu Mingxuan, not knowing whether to laugh or cry. The Lady Boss has taken a fancy to you? "

Gu Mingxuan, on the other hand, was extremely indifferent. He picked up a piece of his favorite dish for her, and didn't even bat an eye: "What does it have to do with me?"

Seeing his attitude, Mu Zhihuan raised her eyebrows and ridiculed: "Don't you want to experience the human nature of this desert family?"

Gu Mingxuan finished cooking for Mu Zhihuan, and then he gave the food to Tuanzi, his expression still indifferent: "I don't want to."

Seeing that he was not willing, Mu Zhihuan clicked her tongue, and began to eat the dishes in the bowl peacefully.

It was originally just a small episode, so none of them took it to heart.

When night came, Mu Zhihuan suddenly realized that she had slept too much during the day, and was not sleepy at all.

So she first carried Tuanzi to his bed, then knocked on his door alone.

When Gu Mingxuan opened the door and saw that it was her, he was startled.

He sniffed and asked, "Did you drink?"

Mu Zhihuan was speechless: "Can't I come find you if I don't drink!"

"Of course not."

With that, Gu Mingxuan moved out of the way. Mu Zhihuan propped up her head and looked at the furnishings inside, it was exactly the same as her own room, so she went over to the chair by the window and sat down.

"What's wrong?"

Gu Mingxuan closed the door and went over to Mu Zhihuan's side and poured her a cup of water.

Mu Zhihuan received the water and took a sip, then looked up at the sky outside the window that was filled with stars and moon, sighing. "I'm getting closer and closer to the Great Yan, I'm a little worried …"

Gu Mingxuan hugged her from behind and comforted her: "It's alright, with me here, I'll protect you."

"I'm not talking about that. I'm talking about the history of Ran'er, and even now we still haven't told him that he's not my son. Do you think it's too late to wait until the Great Yan to tell him that?"

Mu Zhihuan was worried about what would happen if the Tuanzi could not accept it.

's fingers caressed Mu Zhihuan's black hair. "After all, blood is thicker than water, he will understand sooner or later …"

Before he finished speaking, Gu Mingxuan suddenly strode to the door and fiercely opened it.

She could only see a small figure standing at the door in a daze, staring at Gu Mingxuan in disbelief. Before she could even open her mouth, tears had already started rolling down her face.

Gu Mingxuan's heart sank, and he hurriedly hugged Tuanzi. "Ran'er, why are you here?"
