Chapter 191: Telepathy

Su Chen was delighted to see her take the light, and said softly, "Where are you going, young lady? I'll go with you."

Gu Fei hesitated.

Her reason told her that she should separate from Su Chen now and go their separate ways.

Because they were not originally on the same path.

But with such moonlight, such lights, such a night, and such a jade-like gentleman, she couldn't help but have a little greed.

If people live too rationally, wouldn't this life be less fun?

She was only 24 years old when she died in her previous life, and she died before she had time to have a love affair.

Just leave a beautiful memory for herself, and when she is gray-haired, she can savor this moment in the sunset.

She nodded and smiled slightly, "I plan to go to the Jinshui River to have a look. I always hear people say that the pleasure boats on the river are very beautiful, but I have never seen them."

Su Chen smiled, as clear as the bright moon in the sky.

The two walked forward side by side.

Lian'er followed them silently.

Zhang Ze and Chen Hu walked behind Lian'er.

Not far away, there was a teahouse in front of them, with many lanterns hanging. Under the lanterns were red papers, and many people stood there looking up.

Gu Fei also stopped and looked at the red paper. It turned out to be a lantern riddle.

She looked up at the words on it. The riddle was "The Man in the Mirror", and next to it was a line of small words saying "Guess a word".

What word is it?

Gu Fei couldn't think of it for a while, frowning and thinking hard.

Su Chen next to her was stunned for a moment. He didn't know that Gu Fei could read!

In his impression, peasant girls didn't know how to read.

It's nothing to know a few words, but guessing riddles is a word game played by literati. This can only mean that she knows more than just a few words!

Gu Fei couldn't think of it, so she asked Su Chen for help, "I can't guess it, what word do you think it is?"

Su Chen couldn't think of it for a while, mainly because his mind was not on the lantern riddle.

He looked at Gu Fei with shining eyes, wondering what kind of surprise she could give him.

Gu Fei's eyes suddenly lit up and she clapped her hands, "I know!"

Su Chen smiled and said, "What is the word?"

Gu Fei said with a little pride, "It's a word of entry!"

She saw Su Chen staring at her blankly, as if he didn't understand. She stretched out her hand to gesture the word of entry, "Think about it, the left and right are reversed when looking in the mirror. Isn't it a word of entry when looking in the mirror?"

This is a brain teaser!

Su Chen only felt that the little hand was swaying in front of her eyes, and the fingertips were as sharp and thin as spring onions. It was hard to imagine that such a hand could hold a knife.

Gu Fei saw that he seemed to be in a trance, and her hand shook in front of his eyes a few times, "Mr. Su, haven't you figured it out yet?"

Su Chen came back to his senses, nodded, and smiled gently, "I figured it out, but I didn't expect Miss Fei to be so smart."

Gu Fei's heart was full of joy, and she was in a good mood after being praised by the little brother.

Su Chen suddenly looked up at another riddle, "I'll guess one too."

Gu Fei also looked up at the riddle, "An arrow pierces the heart" guess a word.

This one was too simple, Gu Fei guessed it after a little thought, Su Chen and her looked at each other, both with smiles in their eyes, knowing that the other must have guessed it.

Gu Fei's eyebrows curved, "Let's say it together."

"Must" the two said in unison, laughing together.

An uncle next to them kindly reminded, "If you guess this riddle, you can take off the red paper and go inside to find the shopkeeper to get the prize."

Gu Fei and Su Chen waved their hands at the same time, "No need."

The two couldn't help but smile at each other again.
