"Who would believe that someone flew here from ancient times?"
Jiang He's gentle words stunned Xu Qing.
That was true, but no matter how one thought about it, it shouldn't have come from Jiang He's mouth.
Looking at Jiang He's eyes, Xu Qing opened her mouth.
"I believe you."
"Because you're stupid. In fact, I was just a homeless kid. I learned the Three Emperor Cannon Hammer Punch from an old scavenger and then came to this city."
"…"
The two of them looked at each other. Jiang He looked calm and didn't avoid her eyes.
After a moment, she finally couldn't help but laugh.
"Hurry up and eat." Jiang He picked up some food and put it into the bowl with his chopsticks. The corners of his mouth rose slightly.
Unconsciously, Jiang He took the initiative.
Xu Qing suddenly understood what Jiang He meant when he said that she was a modern person.
Now the evidence from ancient times … there was no evidence.
Only you and I knew about it. There would be no third person who knew.
Even if it was said, no one would believe it.
Xu Qing didn't know when she figured this out. Perhaps it was some random moment when she saw the ID "Kai Yuan Lai He Miao" while playing the game and suddenly figured it out.
Or maybe it was when she went out with friends and suddenly thought of it.
"You're too smart."
Xu Qing whispered. From the beginning, he felt that Jiang He was unusually smart in some aspects. She looked naive, but it was because she didn't know enough and hadn't adapted yet.
Maybe she was pretending …
Being able to live with a sword for so long, martial arts alone wasn't enough.
"You finally admit that you're stupid?" Jiang He asked.
"I just said that you're smart, but I didn't admit that I'm stupid. Strictly speaking, your intelligence is only this little bit." Xu Qing picked up a shrimp from the plate and swallowed it in one bite. Then, she picked up a large piece of vegetables. "My intelligence is such a large piece."
"It's vegetables."
“？”
"It's just that I can't outstudy you. You've been studying for more than ten years, while I've just started. Just you wait, I'll surpass you in no time." Jiang He was full of confidence.
Xu Qing couldn't help but remind him, "You were almost cheated by WeChat Shang before."
"That's because I don't understand the modern world. This is a lack of information, just like how you lied to me."
"Did I really lie to you?"
Xu Qing expressed his doubts about this matter.
Ancient people weren't fools. Speaking of which, he was bored at that time and fooled a little girl into holding her hand and hugging her. No matter how he thought about it, it was very natural … That kind of atmosphere and state was definitely related to Jiang He.
Although Jiang He didn't hint at it, his reaction had already explained everything.
If Jiang He maintained the same cold gaze and instinctive resistance he had when they first met, he was sure that he wouldn't have the slightest idea.
"You're the one who lied to me," Jiang He said seriously.
"…"
"Otherwise, did I purposely let you into my room?" She retorted.
"You went into my room several times in the middle of the night, didn't you?" Xu Qing was reminded by her and remembered this.
"Shut up and eat."
…
Dinner was finished at around six o 'clock. Xu Qing washed the dishes. When he came out, Jiang He was already sitting on the throne warming up, preparing for the live broadcast at seven o' clock.
He was only helping to guide the flow before. Now that the audience had stabilized, he wasn't as interested in making armor as he was in the live broadcast. He just sat on the side and pulled out a book from the bookshelf to read.
The Thing About Writing
He didn't plan to write novels or anything. But whether it was writing for videos or writing film reviews, it was inseparable from the creative ability. Jiang He was dueling over there while he sat on the side with the book in his arms.
The habit of reading would affect others. This was setting an example.
One thing could achieve several goals, and he could also appear on screen at the same time, so that the small website wouldn't find out that the live streamer and the registered person didn't match. It was really great.
Xu Qing touched his hair. He planned to practice his stance at half past seven. He couldn't fall behind in his skills.
The news would be rebroadcast the next day. He wasn't as focused during the live broadcast, so he had to watch it again the next day.
When Jiang He didn't need him at all, it would be much easier. At that time, he could hide from the camera and do his own things …
After Jiang He finished a round, she moved her wrist and fiddled with Xu Qing's buzz cut. Xu Qing shook his head to avoid her, but he couldn't avoid her hand no matter how hard he tried.
On the other side of the screen, Gong Ping couldn't help but laugh when she saw this scene. The two of them always looked very natural and lively in front of the camera.
On the other side of the screen, Hu Datong was also amused. He was planning to update his "Ghost Animal" material, and this angry dog head rub could also be edited into it.
"I got 1700 points!"
Jiang He reminded him in a low voice excitedly. Xu Qing looked up and saw a screen full of 66666.
"Oh, that's amazing." Xu Qing read coldly. Actually, it was only a matter of time. Jiang He had already made up for the loss of equipment by exchanging points for equipment. All that was left was the appearance. With her reaction and rhythm, her rank was slowly increasing.
He was reading a book.
"It was your fault for lying to me the first time. I deserved it the second time. You lied to me the third time. Both of us are bad."
Jiang He seemed to have said this before. It turned out that he was looking at it from here.
This little old lady was not a good person. She was always pretending to be dumb. He, Xu Qing, was good.
Here it was again. Jiang He, who had gotten 1700 points, didn't start the next round. Instead, she cupped his head with both hands to satisfy her craving. Then, she turned off DNF and switched on Hearthstone to play. She didn't want to drop again after getting into the game today. Even if she dropped again, it would be tomorrow.
Xu Qing took a pen and circled on the book. At half past seven, he dusted off his clothes and stood up. He took a step back and stood up to practice his stance for the day.
"Both the pen and the sword! "
"666666"
"Host, you pretended well."
"I thought I was watching a movie when I put down the book and started practicing martial arts."
A barrage of comments flew across the screen.
Xu Qing, who had been reading for half an hour and was now practicing his stance, was too pretentious in the eyes of the audience.
Xu Qing could only scoff in his heart.
A group of mortals didn't understand how strong willpower and hard work were needed to defeat a boss.
Mortals were mortals because they hadn't met the evil dragon that made them brave. But he had met it. That evil dragon was dominating his computer, holding the mouse that belonged to him in the past, playing games that belonged to him in the past, and playing happily with the cards that he had painstakingly built.
Half an hour passed in the blink of an eye.
"You can be independent now."
Xu Qing stopped and exhaled. He suddenly realized this when he was practicing his stance.
Jiang He was organizing and uploading today's video. She turned around and looked at him. "What do you mean?"
"You have a basic understanding of the modern world, the currency system, life skills, and some savings to ensure your livelihood. The only thing you lack is an identity. As for the rest … compared to those who ran away from home, you're already much stronger."
"That means you won't be needed." Jiang He understood.
"Although it sounds a little like that, it's the truth." Xu Qing smiled. He paused for a moment and continued, "It's only a part of it. It's not completely correct."
"Hmm?"
"You'll need a man eventually."
"Hmph."
Jiang He moved the mouse and snorted without looking back.
Xu Qing leaned over and held her in his arms. Actually, the purpose of helping Jiang He at the beginning was to let her hide herself. At that time, he felt that it was quite complicated. Now, unknowingly, she had quickly learned to throw away her identity as an ancient person.
Completely throw it away.
It was a secret that could be made public and there was no possibility of it being leaked.
"Are you afraid that I'll abandon you and run away with my bag?" Jiang He shook her head and rubbed the back of her head against his body.
"What do you think?"
"I think …"
Jiang He looked up and met his gaze. "… You will."
"Why?" Xu Qing asked.
"Because I'm afraid too!"
Jiang He suddenly pushed him to the sofa and pounced on him, tickling him.
"Why are you so serious!"
"I'm not afraid!"
"We're sleeping on the same bed, so you're not afraid?" Jiang He pressed Xu Qing's arm and stared at him with narrowed eyes.
"Sleeping on the same bed is nothing."
"Because you don't dare to."
"I … Don't provoke me." Xu Qing said seriously, "I'll take this as a hint. If I get seriously injured by you, I'll be done for."
"…"
Jiang He looked down. "We're not married yet, so we can't do that …"
As she said that, she blushed a little.
"Then why aren't you letting go of me?"
"I feel that our relationship is strange." Jiang He got up from his body.
Logically speaking …
It didn't make sense.
When she thought about it carefully, everything seemed normal, but it just felt strange.
"That's right. I've broken and reshaped your original logical cognitive model. This process is much faster than expected. You'll feel this way when modern thinking conflicts with your previous thinking. The more you change, the stronger the conflict. "
"To put it simply, it's because we don't have enough time."
"You think you can hide your desire to do something lewd by being so serious?"
"… This is just my instinct." Xu Qing turned over awkwardly.
Jiang He did not say anything. She also felt that it was inappropriate, but when she thought of having sex …
She glanced at Xu Qing, lowered her head, and intertwined her hands. Gong Ping's little toy flashed in her mind.
This kind of thing seemed normal to them.
Or … if they couldn't have sex, she could at least give him a little comfort? But he doesn't seem to like using his feet anymore … Jiang He glanced at Xu Qing in distress.
She recalled how she was very resistant to Xu Qing moving into her room a few months ago, and how she was kissed by Xu Qing on Chinese Valentine's Day. She suddenly woke up.
Did becoming a modern person mean that her bottom line was getting lower and lower …
"You still haven't told me why you're not afraid." Jiang He collected her thoughts, sat back on the chair, and looked at the screen. She did not want to be seen through by Xu Qing. After all, Xu Qing was very insatiable.
"I've never been afraid."
"Is that so?"
"Well … I've actually been prepared for a long time. I was just worried that you wouldn't be able to survive in this world and would take the risk with a sword."
"Liar, you're just sure that I won't run away, so you're not worried."
"Alright, I believe you."
Xu Qing lay on the sofa with his eyes closed, and the corner of his mouth moved slightly.
He could not remember when the stupid Jiang He had secretly grown up. It seemed that he had been working hard to learn everything.
It should have been seen on the night of Chinese Valentine's Day. If it was the Jiang He of the past, he would definitely subconsciously resist, and not half-heartedly accept.
The next morning, she really handed the clothes to him to wash.
It was normal for them to get along strangely. After all, there was a process for her to accept the modern transformation.
This was actually not bad. They could seriously discuss what they should and shouldn't do together, and both sides would be satisfied. Instead of guessing like other couples, whether they really didn't want it or not, whether they didn't like it or not.
Xu Qing found that he quite liked this strange feeling.
After the video was uploaded, Jiang He looked sideways. Xu Qing was resting on the sofa with his arms behind his head, and White Gourd climbed onto his stomach and lay down with his tail wagging.
She sat on the chair and thought for a while. She pulled out a book from the bookshelf behind her. The thickness of "The Three Body Problem" made her feel intimidated at first, but after reading it, she was amazed.
It was like an alien was real.
There were also many descriptions that she had to read several times to understand the meaning. This kind of thinking pleasure was something she had never experienced in mathematics — mathematics only brought pain.
"What kind of person could write such a book …"
"Hmm?"
Hearing Jiang He's quiet exclamation, Xu Qing opened his eyes and couldn't help but laugh.
Even a modern person like him was shocked. He gave it to Jiang He with the intention of trying it out, not knowing if she could understand it. Now it seemed that the shock to this ancient person's mind could only be greater.
"It's actually quite simple. Take a water conservancy exam, apply for a power plant, slack for twenty years, and write it."
"I know slacking is not holding a fish to touch, it's slacking."
"You're too amazing."
"Hmph."
Towards Xu Qing's praise, Jiang He only snorted. Hugging the thick book, she put her feet on the sofa armrest and carefully flipped to where Xu Qing helped her put the bookmark.
"Why doesn't Luo Ji have a Wall Breaker?"
"You can try to think from another perspective. If he had one, what would it be like? This way, many questions can be answered."
"Oh?"
Jiang He raised her head and thought for a while before saying thoughtfully, "This is equivalent to reminding him."
Xu Qing nodded and said, "Hmm … that's true."
"The Lord doesn't care."
"No, the Lord is about to pee his pants."
White Gourd's eyes swept past Xu Qing and looked at Jiang He. His ears twitched as if he was sending a message to the mother planet.
"Is this also part of the modern world that you brought me to enjoy?" Jiang He touched the cover of the book and sighed. There were indeed many great things in this era that could make people feel happy or change their worldview without much effort.
Reading a book, watching a movie, listening to a song, it was very easy to be shocked and moved.
"This is part of the plan."
"… Speak properly."
"Oh, yes, I want to share everything I like with you," Xu Qing said.
"Thank you, I like it very much."
Jiang He closed the book with a straight face and placed it on Xu Qing's stomach. Then, she turned around to take a shower.
With the thick book on his stomach and White Gourd lying there, Xu Qing suddenly felt more pressure.
He didn't know how cats should lose weight. They were so fat and still liked to lie on people's stomachs like before.
Sitting up from the sofa, Xu Qing took the book and opened a random page to reread the novel.
After some time, the sound of water in the bathroom stopped, and Jiang He walked out.
"I can't do that …" She pinched the corner of her shirt and looked away. Her face was still straight, and her ears were slightly red.
“？？”
Xu Qing's eyes widened as he looked at her white thighs.
Is today the New Year?
