Rebirth: Traveling To Ancient Times As A Companion Reading Chapter 62
byFinal chapter
The snow has stopped today and the sun is shining brightly through the window.
Joey raised his hand to block the dazzling light.
This is the first time Joey has seen such good weather in so many days.
Lying on the edge of the window and looking at Hei Pa who was having fun in the yard, Joey felt helpless and said, “Don’t play in those snowy waters. Don’t jump on me when your hair gets wet.”
“Meow.”
I won’t.
Black Pa shouted and rushed into the snowdrift.
“You’re really…” Joey had no choice but to forget it. He just wanted to have fun. At worst, he would just grab it and take a bath.
After thinking about it, Joey lay down again, looking sideways at the black handkerchief in the courtyard, playing with the beads in his hand.
That was given to him by Fang Qingzhou.
“What are you thinking about?”
Someone walked slowly behind him and reached out to gently caress Joey’s face facing the window.
“I was thinking about how to celebrate your birthday this year.”
Joey immediately grabbed Lou Ling’s hand on his face, rubbed it like a cat, and didn’t let go.
Since Lou Mengli passed away, Lou Ling has actually not celebrated any birthdays officially.Every year, Joey thinks of it and organizes Xiao Feng and Lou Ling and his son to have a meal or something.
But because of Lou Mengli’s departure, it is difficult for the two father and son to be like before, not to mention that there is Wei Rao now.Joey doesn’t plan to let Lou Ling go to have dinner with Xiao Feng this year. He wants to celebrate Lou Ling’s birthday alone.
Lou Ling looked at Joey’s cheek pressed against his hand, her eyes lowered, and her hand gently rubbed the skin, “Tomorrow is also your birthday, how do you want to spend it?”
Joey was stunned and turned around, “How do you know?”
It’s a coincidence that Joey’s birthday in his previous life and Lou Ling’s birthday were actually on the same day.
Lou Ling bent down and hugged Joey: “What do you think?”
Joey was confused, “But I never said that in front of you…”
“Meow.”
At this moment, Hei Pa suddenly jumped onto the window sill and fell onto Joey.
Joey subconsciously reached out and caught the black handkerchief.
Black Pa stretched lazily in Joey’s arms, “Meow.”
Seeing Hei Pa’s body stretched like a stretched dough ball, Joey seemed to be awakened by something. He remembered that once on Lou Ling’s birthday, he was kneading dough in the kitchen and wanted to try to make longevity noodles for Lou Ling. At that time, he seemed to have talked to Hei Pa about a few things about his previous life, including his birthday.
But that was two years ago, and Joey didn’t expect Lou Ling to still remember it.
Joey thought so and asked.
Lou Ling looked down at Joey and did not answer immediately. Instead, she lowered her head and kissed the corner of Joey’s mouth.
“?”
Joey’s eyes widened as he was kissed again off guard.
“I remember everything about you very clearly.” Lou Ling looked away from Joey’s face and said seriously.
But Joey only felt that Lou Ling was coaxing him. He smiled and said, “Your memory is really amazing, you can remember everything.”
Lou Ling looked serious, held Joey’s face and said, “I’m serious.”
“Okay, okay, you are serious.” Although Joey didn’t believe it, he still let Lou Ling go. He held Lou Ling’s face, stood up on tiptoes and kissed him, “I believe you.”
Joey only thought that he was coaxing Lou Ling and didn’t take it to heart at all.
–
Seven days later it will be the third day of November.
Joey wanted to take Lou Ling to celebrate his birthday alone, so he wanted to drag Lou Ling out with him early in the morning.
But Lou Ling didn’t seem to be in a hurry to leave. Instead, he took Joey to a place.
Joey was curious, “What?”
Lou Ling adjusted Joey’s collar, “You’ll know when we get there.”
The carriage stopped.
Joey jumped out of the carriage expectantly.
But when he looked up, Joey found that something seemed wrong in front of him. Why was there a picture wall here?
Joey took a few steps forward and tentatively picked up one of them.
But after seeing the content of the painting clearly, Joey’s eyes widened in disbelief, and then he quickly approached the painting wall in a few steps. This was… all the paintings on this wall were of him.
“?!”
Joey couldn’t believe it. He turned over the pictures one by one, ten years old, eleven years old, twelve years old… there were twenty-one paintings from each year. How could it be?
Joey turned around in disbelief, and Lou Ling was standing behind him looking at him tenderly.
Joey felt that his heart was about to melt. He ran to Lou Ling in a few steps and hugged him tightly.
Lou Ling hugged Joey back, kissed Joey’s cheek, and whispered in Joey’s ear: “Happy birthday.”
Joey felt like he could almost burst into tears. He said in a hoarse voice, “Today is obviously your birthday, why did you give me a birthday gift?”
Seeing Joey frowning, Lou Ling stretched out her hand to smooth out Joey’s wrinkles and looked at the painting wall behind her, “I’ve been preparing for a year, do you like it?”
How could you not like it?
Joey was almost moved to tears, but he didn’t want to be embarrassed, so he simply buried his face in Lou Ling’s arms.
There were many details that Joey could no longer remember, but Lou Ling wrote them all down and drew them.
Joey walked to a painting and looked at some familiar scenes and characters in the painting. It seemed that he didn’t even remember it when he was in Jiangzhou.
“This is the time I asked my concubine to invite Mrs. Qiao and you to the mansion. The box you picked up that time was given to me by my concubine, and the contents inside are yours.”
Joey was stunned, “But isn’t that box missing?”
Speaking of this, Lou Ling seemed a little guilty. He tilted his face and said, “Actually, I got it back from the Qin Mansion a long time ago.”
Joey was stunned and said, “Then you still said…”
“I’m sorry.” Before Joey could finish speaking, Lou Ling sincerely apologized.
Lou Ling’s attitude was too serious, making it difficult for Joey to continue talking.
“When my mother-in-law gave it to me, she said it was for my future wife.” Lou Ling took Joey’s hand and put something in his hand, “But I never dared to give it to you before.”
“Is there anything you dare not do?” Joey teased.
“Yes.” Lou Ling said seriously, “I’m afraid you won’t like me and will never care about me again after you leave.”
Joey looked at Lou Ling’s face and couldn’t help but step forward to kiss her.
“Lou Ling, haven’t I said a word to you?”
“What?”
“I love you.”
“…”
Lou Ling lowered her head and gently touched Joey’s forehead.
–
Although he received the birthday gift, Joey didn’t want him and Lou Ling to spend the whole day doing nothing.
In addition, the events of the past few days were still lingering in his mind, so Joey simply took Lou Ling out with him to get some fresh air.
The winter noon was much warmer than the early morning, and the market outside seemed still lively.
Hearing the various cries of the vendors outside, Joey opened the carriage curtain and looked outside. He lay by the window and looked outside, “It’s really lively.”
The lives of ordinary people are still going on as usual, as if what happened a few days ago never happened.
Lou Ling looked at Joey’s hair that was blown by the wind outside, frowned, and reached out to put a cloak on Joey, “It’s cold, don’t open the curtain.”
Joey turned around and followed Lou Ling’s actions.
Looking at Lou Ling’s handsome face, Joey couldn’t help but kiss him.
Lou Ling paused.
“Speaking of which, when you were a child…”
Halfway through his words, Joey was suddenly blocked by Lou Ling, and he was a little confused.
After reacting, Joey responded to Lou Ling and patted Lou Ling’s arm as if to comfort him.
After the kiss ended, Joey pecked the corner of Lou Ling’s lips.
Lou Ling hugged Joey and pressed her whole body against Joey, “It’s windy today.”
Joey lifted Lou Ling’s head up, “But today is your birthday, and I want to take you out to play.”
Lou Ling looked at Joey’s bright eyes that couldn’t hide his emotions and responded, “Okay.”
It’s noon now, time for lunch.
Joey took Lou Ling to find a restaurant to eat.
Seeing the excitement on Joey’s face, Lou Ling just looked at him quietly and followed closely.
The owner of the restaurant took the two of them into a private room.
Joey sat opposite Lou Ling, holding his face with one hand and looking at the person opposite, “Lou Ling, I don’t think I have confessed anything to you. I actually came here from another world. I am not from this world.”
Lou Ling paused while pouring tea.
Joey didn’t seem to notice Lou Ling’s strange behavior and said to himself, “Although I don’t know why I came here, I think I may never go back in this life.”
“Isn’t it bad?”
“Huh? What?” Joey thought he heard wrongly.
Lou Ling put down the teapot in her hand, raised her eyes to look at Joey, and said seriously: “Isn’t it good to stay here?”
Although Lou Ling was trying his best to hide the emotions in his eyes, Joey could still see the paranoia and… fear in his eyes. He was helpless and held his forehead, “I didn’t say bad. I just said a few words when I was in emotion.”
Seeing that Lou Ling still seemed tense, Joey stood up directly, came to Lou Ling’s side, bent down and held Lou Ling’s face, pressed it against his forehead, and said, “What are you afraid of? Do you think I will leave?”
Lou Ling looked at Joey without saying a word, but the emotion in his eyes was undisguised.
Joey was helpless and wanted to say something.
But before he could speak, Lou Ling kissed him directly.
Joey’s eyes widened slightly, but after realizing it, he didn’t refuse. He sat directly on Lou Ling’s lap, put his backhand around Lou Ling’s neck, and opened his mouth to respond to Lou Ling’s kiss.
…
After finally stopping all the nonsense, Joey rested his chin on Lou Ling’s shoulder, panting slightly.
Lou Ling’s mood was much better than before. He hugged Joey tightly, leaned against Joey’s ear and said, “Don’t leave.”
Hearing Lou Ling’s fear and uneasiness, Joey felt that he was really…
Why did he bring up those words just now?
Joey was helpless, she couldn’t bear to kiss him again, so she hugged Lou Ling tightly and vowed, “I won’t leave.”
It’s an oath and a promise.
And Joey never goes back on his word.
There was silence between the two for a while.
Joey closed his eyes and leaned on Lou Ling’s shoulder, and suddenly shouted: “Lou Ling.”
Lou Ling: “Huh?”
Joey: “In our place, you can make wishes on your birthday every year.”
Lou Ling: “Really?”
Joey: “Although there are no cakes and candles here, I think even without those two things, birthday wishes can come true here.”
Although Lou Ling couldn’t understand what Joey said, he understood what Joey meant, “Were you making a wish just now?”
Joey: “Yeah.”
“What did you promise?”
But Joey shook his head, “It won’t work if you say it.”
When Lou Ling heard this, she didn’t ask any more questions, but just held Joey’s hand tighter.
Joey leaned on Lou Ling’s shoulder, tilted his head, looked at the silent Lou Ling, and touched the side of his face with his hand.
“I make a wish… morning and evening, year after year, in the days to come, not only on birthdays, we will be by each other’s side every day.”
“…I also hope that for the rest of my life, I will be with you day and night, and the years will last forever, and you and I will both get what we want.”
