Out of the kitchen, Mengqi had just sat down when Gu Xiaosang leaned over and whispered in his ear,
"Did you just say that my father died early?"
After arriving on Earth, she had quietly changed the way she addressed herself as a concubine, as if she wanted to play the role of a real girlfriend.
"Your father was a member of the Yu family of the South State. He passed away a long time ago. Compared to our immortality, there is nothing wrong with dying early." Achieving the Nirvana Realm, going back to the past, occupying the future, almost nothing could escape Mengqi's eyes. He was no stranger to Gu Xiaosang's childhood experience.
Gu Xiaosang's smile widened. She breathed into Mengqi's ear, which was slightly warm, "That was the father of my past body. As for my current body …"
She suddenly called back in a low voice:
"Father …"
Mengqi's body trembled and his scalp tingled. He turned to look at his mother and found that she was very satisfied with their intimate state. She gently nodded to encourage him.
She naturally could not hear the words that the Great Direct of Creation did not want her to hear.
After chatting for a while, Mengqi's mother went into the kitchen and began to prepare dinner. Gu Xiaosang glanced at her busy figure and played with her hair with her right hand, "Should I go in and help?"
"No need. You are the guest when we meet the parents. If you go and help, our mother will feel uncomfortable." Mengqi shook his head and replied. He casually joked, "Besides, I have never seen you cook. Who knows what you will make. The Saintess of Luo Denomination will not teach you this."
"The Luo Denomination will not teach me, but I have been through Samsara and experienced the situation of living alone." Gu Xiaosang smiled and said, "And I have compassion in my heart, unlike you who sit so steadily. You don't know how to be filial at all."
Mengqi snorted, "If I go in, she will definitely kick me out. I can't neglect my dear guest."
The two chatted in the kitchen. From time to time, the sound of chopping and spatula could be heard, making everything seem peaceful and warm.
Before dinner, Mengqi's father hurried home from work. He was stunned when he saw Gu Xiaosang. He couldn't believe that his son had found such an outstanding girlfriend.
Although he had always been proud of Mengqi, he was also very clear about the facts. His son's education was ordinary, his job was ordinary, his looks were ordinary, and his family conditions were even more ordinary. Apart from being brave, persistent, lively, good at adjusting the atmosphere, and socializing with people, he was the kind of person who would be instantly lost in a crowd. What did he have to make such a girl fall for him?
As for his lively personality, he had never brought a girl home in the past twenty years!
Was it really a blind cat bumping into a dead mouse?
With this mentality, the old man felt a little restless in front of the "quiet and obedient" Gu Xiaosang. He found an excuse to sneak into the kitchen and exchanged ideas with Mengqi's mother. After communicating the news, he calmed down and returned to the living room with the idea of letting nature take its course.
At dinner, the dishes were sumptuous. Mengqi's mother and father would not ask a girl who was visiting for the first time. After all, they could find out in private from Mengqi, so they led the topic to the various embarrassing moments of Mengqi's childhood, such as being chased by a dog three streets away, and the nude photos of him bathing when he was two or three years old. Gu Xiaosang didn't know if she was pretending to cater to them or was really interested, but she listened with great interest. She smiled brightly and occasionally interjected, commenting on Mengqi's stupidity.
After that, the two did not stay for long. After sitting for a while, they left gifts and reminding each other that they had to go on a business trip and left.
"I thought you would stay for the night." Gu Xiaosang looked at Mengqi with a smile as she tucked a strand of hair behind her ear in the gentle night breeze.
Mengqi smiled and sighed. "I don't dare to ask for too much from this kind of life. It's better not to disturb their peace and happiness. After all, the era has ended. Who knows what will happen?"
"That's true. If we continue talking, our mother will even nag you about the girls you used to like." Gu Xiaosang smiled like a flower and her eyes were like water, hiding a hint of teasing. "I wonder if your standards were as high in the past as they are now?"
"Haha, of course not …" Mengqi laughed dryly and changed the topic. "I really didn't know that you could pretend to be so quiet and obedient."
Gu Xiaosang smiled, her eyes twinkling.
"Hubby, how do you know that this is not part of my nature?"
…
In the living room, Mengqi's mother and father were drinking tonics with a lingering smile on their faces.
Suddenly, his mother sighed and said, "Xiaosang is good at everything, but she's too good. Our silly son doesn't deserve her. His face is full of joy now, but who knows what will happen in the future."
"Forget it. Don't worry about it. Mengqi is still young. Even if there is no result, having a vigorous life can be considered as fulfilling the first half of his life." His father took a sip of Ganoderma Lucidum tea and said with a sigh, "Although society teaches us to know ourselves, it's not that we can't have dreams. We have to be clear about our current situation, the distance between us and our dreams, and how to approach them step by step. This is self-knowledge. If we don't dare to fight, fight, suffer, and improve ourselves because we are weak, cowardly, and useless. I've lived for most of my life, but recently I've come to understand a little."
After saying that, he suddenly felt a chill. He turned his head and saw Mengqi's mother looking at him with a puzzled face. She said in a low voice, "You had a vigorous life when you were young?"
"That's not the point …" Mengqi's father suddenly broke out in a cold sweat.
…
Walking along the lush road in the neighborhood, Mengqi and Gu Xiaosang looked like a normal couple on Earth.
However, above their heads, the crescent moon seemed to be dragged by someone. In a few breaths, they had finished their night's journey and welcomed the orange morning sun.
At this time, Mengqi stopped in front of a hall with Gu Xiaosang. The door had just opened, and there was a vertical board hanging on it: "XXX Civil Affairs Bureau Marriage Registration Office."
"After we've registered, we'll be legally married," Meng Qi said with a straight face.
"Even if we don't register, no one will dare to say that we are not husband and wife …" Gu Xiaosang pursed her lips into a smile and played along with Mengqi's interest. She pretended to be coquettish and said, "You just brought me to meet your parents and you can't wait to get your marriage certificate. You really can't wait."
The two stepped into the hall and stopped in front of a window. The middle-aged woman handling the affairs was startled and blurted out, "The divorce is over there."
"No, we are here to register our marriage." Mengqi took out their household registers, identity cards, photos, and completed forms. Of course, he took them out of thin air. Suddenly, the entire system was filled with their information. Mengqi's corresponding information was slightly different from Meng Xiaoqi's to avoid causing trouble for his "younger brother".
The middle-aged woman took the information and looked at the two carefully. She couldn't help but say,
"Miss, marriage is an important matter. You can't be deceived."
Gu Xiaosang originally wanted to take advantage of the situation and put on a tearful expression, but for some reason, she made it seem more sacred and solemn. She laughed softly and said, "Don't worry, Auntie. Look at how dumb he is. In our family, I'm the only one who can deceive him."
The middle-aged woman secretly shook her head and didn't say anything more. She flipped through the information and after confirming that there were no problems, she began to make the marriage certificate.
Gu Xiaosang subconsciously looked at Meng Qi when she saw the two red booklets being handed to her. Coincidentally, Meng Qi was also looking at her. Their eyes met and they smiled at each other. Unknowingly, they accepted the marriage certificate.
Watching the two leave, the middle-aged woman picked up her teacup and whispered to herself, "A flower stuck in cow dung …"
She took a sip of tea and moved the mouse to look at Mengqi's information.
"Name: Mengqi."
"Occupation: Heavenly Primogenitor."
"Pfft …" The middle-aged woman spat out a mouthful of tea, which stained the screen. After wiping it clean, she realized that her eyes were playing tricks on her.
"But why did my eyes become Heavenly Primogenitor …" The middle-aged woman was puzzled.
Outside the hall, Mengqi and Gu Xiaosang stepped into the River of Time and disappeared.
…
On the other side, Meng Xiaoqi was puzzled for a few days when he suddenly received a call from home.
"How have you been?" His mother's familiar voice came through the phone.
Meng Xiaoqi answered honestly, "I'm not in a good mood."
He was just waiting for his mother to comfort him!
There was silence on the other side of the phone for more than ten seconds before she said earnestly, "What should be yours will be yours. What shouldn't be yours will not be yours."
Mom, what are you talking about? Meng Xiaoqi was about to ask again, but the phone had already been hung up. He was confused.
Where was the comfort she promised?
When the holidays came, he thought about it and hurried home.
When the door opened, Mengqi's mother saw him and frowned slightly. "You're alone?"
"Of course," Meng Xiaoqi answered blankly. If I'm not alone, who else would I bring?
Mengqi's mother opened her mouth and wanted to say something, but in the end, she stopped. She changed the topic and said, "Come, Mom will make you a sumptuous meal."
Meng Xiaoqi watched his mother go to buy groceries, feeling that something had happened behind his back. But then he received good news. His mother and father had jointly announced that they would no longer force him to go on blind dates. So, he put all his previous problems to the back of his mind.
…
Time turned back and the past appeared. Mengqi and Gu Xiaosang traveled against the river for tens of millions of years. Suddenly, his vision darkened and he saw that the earth was covered by a black fog. He could no longer see the sun, and huge dinosaur carcasses littered the land.
"This is the end of the last era, and the beginning of the current era." He nodded slightly.
The earth was a treasured raft to cross the world. There was no void between the two eras.
