Looking at Qiao Yingzi's expression, Fang Yun smiled.
He didn't mention anything about going home. Instead, he brought her to a nearby office building.
Under Qiao Yingzi's surprised and puzzled gaze, the security guard at the front desk swiped their card to open the gate. Then, Fang Yun pulled her into the elevator and went straight to the top floor.
The top floor was usually not open to the public.
However, Fang Yun swiped his fingerprint and successfully went up to the rooftop.
As soon as she opened the door to the rooftop, Qiao Yingzi could not help but widen her eyes and exclaim,"
"Heavens!"
The rooftop of this office building had been transformed into a leisure courtyard. Under the transparent glass was a huge sea of flowers. All kinds of flowers were colorful and beautiful. Under the illumination of the night lights, they looked extremely dazzling.
It was as if it was competing with the stars in the sky.
In the sea of flowers, there were swings and rocking chairs.
What made Qiao Yingzi most flabbergasted was that there was an astronomical telescope beside it!
"This is…"
Qiao Yingzi was so surprised that she didn't know how to express it. She looked at the telescope carefully."Brother Fang Yun, you can't buy this on the market, right? It seemed to be professionally customized? What was this place? Why is this here?"
As an astronomy enthusiast, she never had her own telescope.
The one that Qiao Weidong had given her two days ago had been put into the storeroom by Song Qian before she could even open it.
However, she usually went online and liked to look at these things. She had some understanding of various models of binoculars, so she could vaguely tell that this telescope was a little unusual.
"If you like it, look at it more."
Fang Yun didn't say much. He strolled to the railing and looked at the night view of Yanjing.
From here, the planetariums where the two of them met, the hotpot restaurants where they ate, the heavy traffic, and the high-rise buildings were all in sight.
He looked down on the world.
There was a period of time when Fang Yun liked to come here to relax, plant flowers, raise grass, and look at the stars…Later, when he went to university, this place was handed over to professional people to take care of.
Coming back after a few years, he had a different feeling.
The weather was not bad today. There were no clouds in the sky, and most importantly, there was no smog. Therefore, standing on the rooftop, even without an astronomical telescope, one could see the stars in the night sky. They were bright and gorgeous.
"Brother Fang Yun, so you like astronomy too?”
Qiao Yingzi seemed to have discovered a new world. As she fiddled with the telescope, she asked Fang Yun,"I didn't hear you mention it yesterday. Don't tell me you minored in astronomy in university?”
"No, this is a hobby from a long time ago.”
Fang Yun smiled." I was watching Investiture of the Gods at that time. I was very interested in the twenty-eight constellations and the Seven Luminaries Palace. When I was bored, I would study astrology."”
"Yingzi, what's your star sign?" he asked casually.”
"My birthday is at the end of September, Libra!”
Qiao Yingzi replied. She gave up on the binoculars and came to Fang Yun's side to enjoy the night view together.
"So beautiful…"
She was in a good mood. She felt that the happiness she had obtained tonight was far greater than ever before.
"Libra…"
Fang Yun looked up at the sky. After searching for a while, he raised his finger and pointed in the direction of Libra." Did you know that the twelve constellations originated from the West? In fact, in ancient astronomy, there were also twelve constellations, which divided the week near the ecliptic equator into twelve equal parts from west to east…"
Qiao Yingzi looked confused.
She especially liked astronomy, but in this society, most of the countries around the world studied astronomy using the western system, so she had never paid attention to eastern astronomy.
"Could there be a Libra in ancient astronomy in our country?”
She followed Fang Yun's finger and asked in confusion.
"It's just not called Libra.”
"There's a system for the division of stars in ancient astronomy in our country. It's called the Three Walls, Four Appearances, and Twenty-Eight Constellations…" Fang Yun smiled.
He didn't want to show off his knowledge, so he didn't explain too much. He just pointed at a few stars in Libra." Among the Four Symbols, the Eastern Azure Dragon has the seven constellations of Horn, Kang, Di, Fang, Xin, Wei, Ji…"
He guided Qiao Yingzi's gaze bit by bit as it moved through the starry sky."Beneath Spica and Kang is the Aldebaran. There are four permanent stars. If the tree has roots, they are the four stars of Libra, Alpha, eta, Gamma-Beta!”
This was Qiao Yingzi's first time coming into contact with Eastern astrology.
She listened and looked at it at the same time. She was a little dazzled."So our country's traditional astronomy is so advanced?”
"The Book of the Stars says that the four stars Di are the Heavenly Palace. One is called the Heavenly Root, and the other is the Heavenly Mansion. They are the Wood (Attribute) stars!”
The night wind blew gently. Fang Yun was very relaxed and said casually,"The 12 constellations in the west are divided into fire, water, earth, and wind, while the 12 constellations in our country are closely related to the 24 solar terms, reflecting the characteristics of realization.”
"So knowing your lunar birthday, I can deduce that you belong to one of the twelve stars.”
He thought for a moment and calculated Qiao Yingzi's lunar birthday from eighteen years ago."The beginning of the ninth month of the lunar calendar is after the end of summer and before the white dew. It corresponds to the twelve stars…the quail tail!”
"Quail tail?"
Qiao Yingzi was extremely unfamiliar with this form of address and subconsciously asked,""Then these twelve stars are the same as the twelve constellations. Do they all have their own characteristics?”
"Of course."
Fang Yun nodded." The quail tail represents the roots that grow firmly in the earth. According to this theory, the character of the people of this star will also be like the roots in the earth. They will be strong and unfathomable. Under the cold appearance, there will be a gentle heart, full of sympathy, rich imagination, and sharp senses..."
Qiao Yingzi's interest grew and she was engrossed in listening.
As the conversation between the two continued, she raised some questions from time to time.
Fang Yun patiently explained to her.
For a moment, under the starry sky, two figures stood side by side. There was actually an indescribable sense of comfort and naturalness.
Until Song Qian called.
Before Qiao Yingzi could answer the phone, her eyes widened."Brother Fang Yun, someone jumped off the building!!”
