Guo Fu laughed, “How do I know?”
Wu Xiuwen said, “If you do dream, what do you think you will dream about?”
Guo Fu gave a little laugh and said, “Most probably about a little monkey.”
Wu Xiuwen was filled with joy and skipped away.
Xiao Longnu and Yang Guo listened to their words behind the flower thicket. They couldn’t stop themselves from grinning at each other and comparing themselves with them: one was madly in love with the other while the other didn’t have a set mind; while they had only each other in mind and could die without regret. That couple’s joy and happiness could not compare with the joy and happiness of themselves.
After Wu Xiuwen left, Guo Fu sat on the stone bench and looked up at the moon in deep thought. She stared at it for a long while before letting out a sigh.
Suddenly, someone came out from behind the garden fountain and said, “Sister Fu, why are you sighing?” It was Wu Dunru.
Yang Guo and Xiao Longnu were both slightly startled. Wu Dunru must have hid himself here a long time ago, he was here even before they in fact, otherwise the two would have noticed him when he arrived here.
Guo Fu said with a slight angry tone, “You are always weird like this. You heard everything we said, right?”
Wu Dunru nodded and stood opposite of Guo Fu at quite a distance away but his eyes were still filled with love. The two looked at each other in silence.
After a while, Guo Fu said, “What do you want to say to me?”
Wu Dunru said, “Nothing. You know what I have to say.” He turned around and then slowly walked away.
Guo Fu stared at his back while he walked away towards the garden fountain. He didn’t turn around even once. She thought, “Wouldn’t it be great if only one of them existed?” She gave a deep sigh and returned to her room alone.
Yang Guo waited until she had gone before laughing, “If you were her, who would you marry?”
Xiao Longnu turned her head slightly and thought for a while before saying; “You.”
Yang Guo laughed, “I don’t count. Miss Guo does not like me one bit. I said if you were her, which one of the Wu brothers would you pick?”
Xiao Longnu compared the two Wu brothers in her mind but still came up with, “I’ll still marry you.”
Yang Guo was amused and touched. He embraced her and said tenderly, “Others have more than one in their hearts but my Gu Gu loves me only.”
The two of them stayed in each others loving arms until daylight.
The sun was on the eastern horizon. The two still did not want to part. Suddenly, a servant rushed up to them and greeted them before saying, “Master Guo requests Master Yang’s presence immediately,”
Yang Guo saw that his face was anxious and knew that it was something important. He left Xiao Longnu and followed the servant to the inner halls.
The servant said, “I searched for master Yang everywhere; master Yang was appreciating the scenery in the garden.”
Yang Guo said, “Has Master Guo been waiting a long time?”
The servant whispered, “The two masters Wu’s suddenly disappeared, Master and Madam Guo are worrying about them and Miss Guo cried a few times!”
