The night deepened.
Gu Yang was ready to rest when suddenly, he heard a knock on the door. "Brother Gu."
Recognizing the voice, it was Chu Xiyue.
He opened the door and saw her carrying two jugs of wine, inviting him to have a drink outside. He gladly accepted.
At the bow of the ship, the two leaned against the railing, drinking and chatting.
In the sky, the moonlight flowed like water, reflecting on the river surface, twinkling with rippling light.
The ship was silent, the chatty water sound adding tranquility to the scene.
Gu Yang looked at Chu Xiyue in front of him. The white robe she wore made her fair skin glow enchantingly against the darkness of the night, a sight to behold.
In such an atmosphere, he too couldn't help but feel moved.
He finally knew why she was given a title that means 'unmatched beauty'.
