As spiritual energy revived, I, having acquired certain attributes, gradually ascended to immortalit

With the idea of ​​asking the phone if you don't understand, Shen Qing took out his phone.

I had barely typed a few words and hadn't even searched when a suggestion popped up: "bandages worn on the chests of ancient women".

"Forehead……"

Shen Qing locked the screen expressionlessly. Could he say that he hadn't thought about it at all?

Influenced by TV dramas he watched as a child, he subconsciously thought that women in ancient times wore bellybands underneath their clothes.

Shen Qingtang couldn't come out for a while, and Shen Qing couldn't stand it anymore, so she walked out of the lingerie store, leaned against the wall, crossed her arms, and stared at the sky with a look of utter despair.

The sky was blue, the clouds were white, and the sun was shining brightly.

This time, he's truly in a situation where he can't clear his name no matter what, even though it's all his own doing.

Looking away, directly opposite is a two-dollar store.

Shen Qing wandered in aimlessly, and when she came out again, she had two hair clips in her hand.

I don't know if it's because waiting always takes so long, but it felt like ages before Shen Qingtang finally came out, carrying two bags, her eyes darting around.

Shen Qing paid the bill and then handed over the hair clip.

"Well, I feel this is more suitable than your straw rope, after all, we need to integrate into society... it can also be considered an apology."

Shen Qingtang paused for a moment, then looked down at the two simple black hair clips in her hand.

She did not refuse.

After all, we already owe a lot, so a little more won't make a difference.

She raised her hand and untied the straw rope behind her head, letting her long black hair fall loose. She then half-tied it up with a hair clip. With just this small change, she became more gentle and graceful.

Shen Qing subconsciously took another look.

Gentle and graceful?

How did he come up with that word? He quickly stopped himself from speaking and blurted out:

"It suits you well."

The two walked one after the other on the commercial street, and Shen Qing introduced each of the shops one by one.

"This is a supermarket, like a market, they sell everything. That's a milk tea shop, it sells a kind of sweet drink, like cola. If you want some, I can take you to buy some later."

Shen Qingtang looked at each sign in the direction he was pointing, lingering on each one for a few seconds.

"May I try some?"

A few minutes later, the two came out each carrying a cup of milk tea. Shen Qing had lemonade; he wasn't interested in anything else.

Shen Qingtang was the shop assistant's recommended signature dish, but judging from the heroine's expression, she didn't seem to like it very much.

"Cola still tastes better."

Shen Qing smiled and said, "Great minds think alike."

The two strolled around until noon, when they passed a nationwide chain snack shop and he suddenly spoke.

"Would you like lunch?"

A few minutes later, two bowls of signature beef ramen were served. Shen Qingtang stared wide-eyed at the two slices of meat in the bowl. They were so thin!

Shen Qing could tell what she was thinking just by looking at her expression, and explained while suppressing a laugh, "The thinner you slice it, the more authentic it is."

The female warrior glanced at him as if he were an idiot, and began to eat her noodles.

Both of them ate very quickly, and during the lunch break, more and more people gradually started to arrive.

After leaving the snack shop, Shen Qingtang followed closely behind Shen Qing, seemingly unaccustomed to crowds.

Young or old, busy or leisurely, some with children, some walking dogs, everyone had a face that Shen Qingtang had never seen before.

The two walked to a park, where the crowds that had been thronging along the way had finally thinned out.

Shen Qing casually sat down on a bench and patted it, gesturing for the female knight to sit down.

"How was your visit?"

Shen Qingtang sat down on a bench, gazing at the clear fountain in the distance, and murmured, "A completely different world."

The people in this world have a sense of security that they take for granted. They don't have to worry about bandits, food, or demons.

She looked down at the hair clip, "I think my aunt will like it too."

My aunt isn't a bodyguard; she's just an ordinary person. If only she lived here, she wouldn't have to live in fear.

Looking at the crowds coming and going around her, Shen Qingtang's expression became complicated.

No matter how good it is, it's not her world; she doesn't fit in with anything here.

Noticing that Shen Qingtang was feeling down, Shen Qing didn't know what to say for a moment.

He was all alone and undocumented, much worse off than he had been.

No identity, no job... no future, nothing at all, truly out of place in this world.

"By the way, how did you get here?"

Shen Qingtang said somewhat confusedly, "There was a thick fog, lots of chaotic noises around, and it was pitch black. After walking for a while, we came to an open space."

Thick fog, chaotic sounds...

Shen Qing nodded.

"Perhaps, one day you'll wake up and go back?"

To be honest, taking in someone who doesn't exist on a whim is bound to cause trouble no matter how you look at it.

What if she can never go back and remains an unregistered resident for life? Would he be expected to support her for the rest of her life? I doubt even the heroine herself would agree to that.

But I've gotten a little used to it these past few days.

If you come home one day to a completely dark house with the side bedroom door open and no one inside, it feels like something is missing.

"Hehe, if you suddenly go back one day, I might feel a little lost."

"Um?"

The woman immediately became alert and moved to the side. "Um, I'm just staying here temporarily, I'll return it to you."

Shen Qing chuckled, "Heh, you're quite vigilant. Looks like you won't be tricked into becoming someone else's wife. I'm waiting for you to pay me back."

Shen Qingtang stared at him suspiciously for a few seconds, as if trying to figure out what kind of trap was hidden in his words.

Finally, probably feeling that Shen Qing's smile was too inappropriate, he simply turned his head away and refused to look at him.

Gradually, the sun set.

The two continued shopping and eventually came out of a clothing store. The female warrior preferred to wear trousers, so she picked out two outfits for her older brother and sister-in-law as well.

There was also a second-hand mobile phone, which the female warrior chose herself.

Shen Qing, carrying a bottle of water, said casually, "To be honest, this is the first time I've ever felt like I'm not tired while shopping."

Shopping with his sister-in-law is always a nightmare for him.

Of course, it could also be because my physical condition is different now than before.

"Alright, let's go back. There's not much to see here. Next time, I'll take you to the city center."

Shen Qingtang nodded. On her way back, she passed a supermarket and suddenly stopped.

"Isn't ordering takeout every day a bit of a waste of money?"

"Can you cook?"

"Won't."

Shen Qingtang shook her head. She was a bodyguard who had practiced martial arts since childhood. She was skilled with a knife, but not a kitchen knife.

"However, I can learn."

Shen Qing did not refuse. It's a good thing to have things you want to do, and it saves you from overthinking.

"However," he thought for a moment, "I'm usually busy during the day, which means you'll need to go grocery shopping by yourself. Can you do math?"

The female warrior's expression froze instantly.

She was just an ordinary bodyguard; there was no need for her to be good at math.

"It seems you'll have more to study, and you're not ready to go out alone yet. I'll take you around a few more times."

Seeing this, Shen Qing couldn't help but smile. It seemed it was time to show this ancient person what nine years of compulsory education was all about.

The following Saturday, I lay down with nothing to do.

The female warrior began learning mathematics, but unfortunately she didn't recognize any Arabic numerals and had to start from scratch.

Then it was Sunday, time to go to work, but Shen Qing was in a better mood than usual.

Since the bonus seems to be quite substantial, I need to sign to collect it.
