The night was deep and tranquil, the slits of the window let in a few threads of wind, making the candle sway occasionally. Under the warm candlelight, Zhou Gu faintly saw a moment of tenderness in Su Rong's eyes.

He looked away, his eyelids drooping as he asked in a dull voice, "Any books? Could you read with me for a while?"

Su Rong nodded, "Yes, I think so. Let me find one."

She handed the travelogue to Zhou Gu, then sat down with a sketchbook.

Zhou Gu took the travelogue and asked Su Rong, "Do you know why I love reading travelogues?"
