Ah Jiu didn't really understand why he wanted to take Wufu along on the journey, but in his heart, he felt as if with her, things would go more smoothly, like water finding its course.
Or perhaps, before they reached Nanyue, he wanted to take her across mountains and rivers, watching her fly freely like a bird released, which surely would be interesting.
Thinking of his return journey, Ah Jiu's brows furrowed and then relaxed, over and over again.
Lost in thought, a cold finger pressed against his brow, and Ah Jiu looked up.
Wufu withdrew her finger, saying, "Why are you frowning on New Year's Day? It's not like I said I won't go. Besides, my mother said she will invite the matchmaker after my reaching the age of marriage..."
Ah Jiu's heart tensed up as he looked at her, "Matchmaker?"
