Chapter 820 This is the gift I picked especially for you
Finally, Lu Ziche plucked up the courage, raised his legs, stepped over the threshold, and walked into the courtyard that he had been dreaming about.
Looking up, I saw Yu Zhiyan wearing a light blue silk dress, standing gracefully under a crabapple tree in the middle of the yard.
The color of the skirt was just like the morning sky, pure and elegant. The hem of the skirt fluttered gently in the wind, like the clouds in the sky, lively and elegant.
The breeze blew gently, blowing her silky hair, and a few strands of hair playfully brushed against her fair and delicate cheeks.
The sunlight shone through the dense branches and leaves, casting mottled shadows on her, making her entire body exude a dreamy glow, like a magnificent and peerless painting.
Her eyes are as bright as stars, clear and deep, as if hiding the vast stars. Her nose is straight and beautiful, her lips are like cherries, red without any makeup, her skin is as white as snow, delicate and smooth, and she is beautiful beyond words.
Just then, a light sound of footsteps came from far away.
Lu Ziche turned his head slightly and saw a girl who looked like a maid walking towards him with a tea tray.
The maid was dressed in emerald green clothes, which contrasted beautifully with the surrounding green trees and made her look particularly fresh.
She walked to Yu Zhiyan, bowed slightly, and said in a clear and pleasant voice: "Miss, the tea is here."
Yu Zhiyan nodded slightly, with a gentle smile on her lips: "Thank you, Cui'er. Put it down first, and then leave."
"Yes, miss." The maid Cui'er placed the tea tray on the stone table and turned to leave.
Yu Zhiyan was just about to turn around and walk towards the stone table, but the moment she turned her head, her eyes met Lu Ziche who was walking into the yard.
Looking at Lu Ziche's outfit today, a hint of barely perceptible surprise flashed across her eyes.
But this surprise was fleeting, and soon returned to its usual calmness.
She pursed her rosy and beautiful lips slightly and asked softly, "Lu Ziche, I wonder why you came to see me today?"
The moment Lu Ziche saw Yu Zhiyan, he felt as if his heart suddenly skipped a beat, and even his originally steady breathing involuntarily stagnated.
A faint blush quickly crept up his cheeks, spreading from the tips of his ears to his neck, making him look even more embarrassed.
"Zhi Yan, I... I came to see you." Lu Ziche said a little nervously.
His eyes unconsciously avoided Yu Zhiyan's gaze and fell on the ground beside him. He did not dare to look at her.
When Yu Zhiyan saw him like this, a faint and elegant curve appeared at the corner of her mouth, as if she was smiling.
He replied softly, "Oh, really? That's thoughtful. Please sit over here."
After saying this, she took light steps, turned around and walked slowly towards the stone table not far away.
After she sat down gracefully, she raised her jade hand and made a gesture of invitation, indicating that Lu Ziche should sit down with her.
Lu Ziche looked at the beauty in front of him, her every move, every frown and smile, and felt as if his heart was being pulled by an invisible thread, beating along with her movements.
He took a deep breath, trying to calm the surging emotions in his heart, then took a slightly restrained step and slowly walked towards the stone table.
Finally, Lu Ziche stopped in front of the stone bench, bent down carefully, and sat down slowly.
His hands seemed to be out of control, mechanically placed on his knees, slightly clenched into fists, and his fingers trembled slightly unconsciously.
The slight tremor still could not be concealed, revealing the tension in his heart that was like a surging wave.
He secretly glanced at Yu Zhiyan, and saw her stretch out her slender white fingers, pick up the teapot and pour tea for him.
Lu Ziche took a deep breath, quietly raised his head again, and glanced at Yu Zhiyan cautiously like a thief.
However, at the moment when his sight just touched Yu Zhiyan, he actually met directly with her eyes which were as clear as a spring and seemed to be able to see through everything in the world!
In an instant, he felt as if his heart was being gnawed by millions of ants on a hot pot. He fell into chaos and panic.
The whole person was like a frightened deer. In panic, he lowered his head deeply and never dared to raise it to take another look.
The two of them just sat there quietly, no one spoke.
The air seemed to be frozen, and there was a faint atmosphere of awkwardness and tension.
After a long while, Lu Ziche finally mustered up all his courage.
After taking a deep breath, as if he had made up his mind, he resolutely broke the suffocating silence in front of him:
"Zhiyan, these past few days...how have you been?"
His voice, with a hint of cautious concern, floated slowly in the air.
Yu Zhiyan nodded slightly: "Well, I'm fine."
After saying this, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a faint smile.
Seeing Yu Zhiyan's answer, Lu Ziche couldn't help but open his mouth, wanting to say something else.
But the words that had already surged to my throat seemed to be suddenly cast by a spell and were stuck in my throat and could not be spit out.
He couldn't help but curse himself in his heart. His usual eloquence and eloquence had disappeared without a trace.
Facing Yu Zhiyan, the woman who made his heart beat fast, he became so tongue-tied that he couldn't even utter a complete sentence.
Now he was left with this clumsy and dull look, making a fool of himself in front of her.
He wished he could find a crack in the ground to crawl into so as to avoid Yu Zhiyan's clear gaze.
But the more he thought about it, the more ridiculous his behavior seemed to him, and he became more and more uneasy.
Yu Zhiyan seemed to see through his embarrassment. She smiled, instantly penetrating the haze in Lu Ziche's heart, making his heart, which was originally so tense that it was almost suffocating, feel a little relieved.
"Lu Ziche, you came here today, do you have anything to say to me?" Yu Zhiyan asked.
When Lu Ziche heard this, his heart suddenly tightened as if it was struck by an electric current.
He raised his head, looked into Yu Zhiyan's eyes, and mustered up the courage to say, "Zhiyan, I...I actually have a gift for you."
As he spoke, he took out a gift box from his arms with trembling hands and handed it to Yu Zhiyan with both hands, "Zhiyan, this is for you, I hope you like it."
Yu Zhiyan was slightly stunned, her eyes fell on the gift box in Lu Ziche's hand.
Although the gift box has not been opened, she has already felt a faint fluctuation of spiritual power overflowing from the box, as if some mysterious power is calling her.
She raised her eyes to look at Lu Ziche and saw that he looked nervous, his hands trembling slightly, but his eyes were full of anticipation and anxiety.
“What is this…?” Yu Zhiyan asked softly, with a hint of doubt and curiosity in her tone.
Lu Ziche took a deep breath and tried to make his voice sound steady: "This is a gift I picked especially for you. I hope... I hope you like it."
