Chapter 237 My True Appearance

Zhao Yuxi moved many things from her home to Gu Tingzhou's home, including clothes, cabinets, and vases. In the morning, she moved, and in the afternoon, she went shopping and bought new clothes and furniture.

By dark, Gu Tingzhu's house had been completely renovated.

Zhao Yuxi was very satisfied with the results of the day's hard work: "Your house is bigger than mine. From now on, this will be our new home in the Academy of Sciences."

Gu Tingzhou looked at the "new home" where he had lived for nearly a month, his heart full of longing for the future: "Yeah."

After dinner, the two sat on the sofa in the living room and looked through a photo album together.

The more Gu Tingzhou looked at them, the more curious she became: Why were the photos from more than a decade ago so clear? Why was she the only one in all the photos? Some of the pictures looked like works of art. Would people have thought of taking photos in those circumstances?
"These photos..."

There is a date written on each photo, some dates are only the year, some are accurate to the month, and some are accurate to the day.

Student Zhao Yuxi stands by the pond with a basin of lobsters in hand, August 2010.

Zhao Yuxi holds a white cat. The cat is so big that it covers half of her body. July 2011.

Student Zhao Yuxi lies in the snow. The sunlight that day is so strong that it makes her glow. February 2012.

Student Zhao Yuxi burst into tears, with a roller coaster behind her. July 2014, 7.

Zhao Yuxi holds a thick stack of books with a box of milk on top. It was 2017. This year, she graduated from junior high school.

"It is made up of musical notes, which can construct all the information that humans can perceive. This is the role of the asymptote entity."

"Awesome." Gu Tingzhou admired Zhao Yuxi's ability. Although synesthesia is not suitable for fighting, it is suitable for many other things, and these other things are more important than fighting. In addition, Zhao Yuxi used other people's asymptotes to make up for the shortcomings in fighting. Although the strength of other people's lines in her hands needs to be squared, her mass transfer ability, even if squared, is more powerful than synesthesia.

"It's okay. Was I prettier when I was a kid than I am now?"

"No, you look better now." This is what Gu Tingzhou really said. When she was young, Sister Zhao Yuxi looked very mediocre, even a little silly. Her face shape and hairstyle were not as good as they are now.

"Then just look further ahead. There are also photos of me as an adult in the photo album. There are a lot of them."

Gu Tingzhou didn't want to look at the photos after that. His hands were shaking as he flipped through the photos, and his eyes were shaking too.

Student Zhao Yuxi was lying on the water wearing simple clothes. The light and water, the shape and color were all clearly visible.

Zhao Yuxi reached out her hand and continued to flip through the photo album: "At present, the Academy of Sciences has not developed a perfect drug that can make people younger. Our youth has a shelf life. Some pictures can be preserved, while some pictures cannot be preserved and can never be reproduced. You can see what I looked like before I met you, so you should take a closer look."

Gu Tingzhu looked at those photos, his imagination ran wild, his heart blossomed, and his blood boiled.

Zhao Yuxi sat very close to him, so close that she could clearly see his flowing desire without using asymptotes and asymptotic domains.

She tapped him lightly, and then took advantage of his unstable body to push him, causing Gu Tingzhou to fall onto the sofa, with the album falling to the ground. Zhao Yuxi pressed on him, her excitement and pride evident in her words.

"Gu Tingzhou, please be a good boy for a while and don't move around, okay?"

Zhao Yuxi was not heavy, but Gu Tingzhou could not push her away. Zhao Yuxi patted him, and after that, his heart beat very fast, and his brain and strength seemed to be insufficient.

Gu Tingzhou gave up struggling and replied to her blankly: "Okay."

Ten minutes later, Gu Tingzhou felt his mind go blank. At the same time, he had a strong thought in his heart: Zhao Yuxi had done him a favor, and this favor was worth repaying with his whole life. "Zhao Yuxi, I swear I will never betray you."

"Don't be so serious. I just did a very small thing, something you can do too." Zhao Yuxi looked at her hands, then at his clothes covering the photo album, and she suddenly felt an extraordinary weight flowing through her hands a moment ago.

"No. What I did is different from what you did. Zhao Yuxi, thank you."

"You're welcome. Even though you swore, I still don't dare ask you to help me fulfill my wish because we are both Ancient Ones. Perhaps later, when I'm more familiar with you, I might tell you my wish."

Both of them were very happy at that time, but because of Gu Tingzhou's oath and her truth, both of them felt very heavy.

"Sister Xi." Gu Tingzhou's voice was pleading. He wanted to use this tone to make Zhao Yuxi let down her guard against him. He used to be on guard against Zhao Yuxi all the time. It is not difficult to imagine that Zhao Yuxi must be on guard against him as well. When an ancient person marries an ancient person, both parties are people with extraordinary abilities. They can trust each other, but they are unlikely to completely trust each other.

"what happened?"

Zhao Yuxi told herself: Gu Tingzhou is immature, and he just acted like a good boy for a while. At this moment, he is weak, even fragile, and does not pose any threat to me. I should not consider whether he is an ancient. Although he is an ancient, so what? With his ability, he can rebel against me at any time, but he has never done so. Therefore, I don't have to worry about Gu Tingzhou doing anything bad to me. I just need to continue to love him until one day he can take on the responsibilities I want to give him.

"Sister Xiaoxi."

Zhao Yuxi pretended to be angry: "Huh? I'm older than you."

"It's okay, there are only two of us here, don't worry about age. Sister Xiaoxi, I want more." Gu Tingzhou didn't want to be on guard against Zhao Yuxi anymore, it was like this now and it would be like this in the future. He changed his usual cautious and careful appearance, just to show her his truest side.

"You're really not shy, Tingting." Zhao Yuxi looked at his desire, his greed, his nervousness, and his timidity, and reached out to him again.

"Thank you."

"Tingting, I didn't realize you were so bold. Sometimes it's better to be bolder. You are bold enough to ask me for something, which is progress."

The next morning, Gu Tingzhu's strength had mostly recovered. When he woke up, he didn't spread his arms, but secretly hugged Zhao Yuxi.

Zhao Yuxi went to bed late and woke up late. She thought he probably knew Gu Tingzhou's strength. After several times of weakness, his physical strength was almost exhausted and he lay motionless on the sofa. If she had bad intentions, Gu Tingzhou would probably sleep forever.

"Xiao Xi, what do you want to eat in the morning?"

Zhao Yuxi saw Gu Tingzhou sitting on the bed playing with his phone: "Don't omit the name casually. You called me Xiaoxi twice, you should at least call me sister once, right? But we are already married, have you ever thought about changing the name?"

"I don't like that name. It sounds like something middle-aged people use."

"I think so too. Then wait until you reach middle age before using that title. Let's get down to business first. Eat more this morning. I don't think I'm hungry yet. Are you feeling well?"

"It's fine. Just as good as yesterday morning."

"Do you want to continue?"

"want."

That morning, Zhao Yuxi sat by the bed and fed Gu Tingzhu.
