Shiina Mashiro's eyes lit up, and she stretched out her hand: "Sora is so unlucky."
Where did you learn this?
"I saw it in a romance manga. There's a scene where the female lead sprains her ankle and the male lead carries her on his back," Shiina Mashiro honestly confessed.
Jiang Jing rolled her eyes: "I realize I shouldn't have recommended you read those romance comics and novels that day."
"Okay, come on, but only carry it to the station ahead. We'll take the tram to the supermarket later."
"Okay, Kong Tai."
Seeing that Jiang Jingzhen had agreed, Shiina Mashiro was overjoyed, and a smile involuntarily crept onto her lips. Then, Shiina Mashiro awkwardly pretended that her foot was still not fully healed and stood up.
"Give me the bag, come on up."
"Ah."
"Did we misunderstand something that day?" Eriri hesitated for a moment, looking at Jiang Jing's figure walking out of the park with a backpack in her hand and Shiina Mashiro on her back. She felt a sense of upheaval in her heart.
This scene perfectly embodies the image of a warm-hearted man doting on his girlfriend.
"Probably." Kasumigaoka Utaha was also a little unsure. Was this the same person who had been at the banquet that day, dressed in a black tuxedo, exuding a noble and extraordinary aura, and surrounded by a group of beautiful women, attracting everyone's attention?
Especially the scene where Jiang Jing gently knelt down to massage Shiina Mashiro's feet, and the practiced movements of taking off and putting on her shoes, completely contradicted the aloof impression Jiang Jing had left in their minds that day.
After watching the two figures disappear through the park gate, Kasumigaoka Utaha suddenly turned to look at Aki Tomoya, who was still trying to persuade them.
For some reason, Kasumigaoka Utaha felt that compared to Eijiro, the figure who was originally very important to her suddenly became much more blurred.
After being rejected in her veiled confession that day, Kasumigaoka Utaha has said on the surface that she no longer cares, but a sense of resentment has always lingered in her heart for the past few months.
But at that moment, she suddenly realized that she seemed to have been unaware of it.
Having obtained the information she wanted, Kasumigaoka Utaha shook her head and walked out, saying calmly, "I have something to do, so I'll head back first. You can continue on your way."
Jiang Jing and his companion, carrying a beautiful young woman with exceptional temperament and looks, were quite conspicuous as they walked down the street, frequently attracting attention.
However, Shiina Mashiro, lying on Jiang Jing's back with a calm expression and happy eyes, didn't care about these gazes at all, thoroughly enjoying the pampering from Jiang Jing.
As for Jiang Jing, he didn't care at all. With Shiina Mashiro, who was as light as a feather, on his back, his attention had already drifted to the spiritual energy of heaven and earth that permeated the world.
At this moment, Jiang Jing keenly sensed that the rich, free-flowing energy in the world, which was originally suitable for cultivation, was almost 30% denser than he had sensed when he first woke up.
Don't underestimate the mere 30%. A 30% increase in the concentration of spiritual energy in the entire world is astonishing. In particular, the polluted energy mixed in with the original free spiritual energy has also increased, and it has already reached the point of qualitative change.
The reason is the Void Storm.
Jiang Jing wondered whether this so-called void storm was unintentionally stirred up by something below, or whether it was deliberately infiltrated by taking advantage of the vibrations in the world's rules. A thoughtful expression appeared in his eyes.
Jiang Jing had noticed the changes in the concentration of spiritual energy in the world long ago. There were faint signs of an increase when the so-called void storm appeared earlier, but it wasn't very obvious at the time.
After the storm peaked, Jiang Jing noticed when he returned last night that the spiritual energy concentration in this world had increased by more than 20% in just two days.
With Jiang Jing's experience and insight, he couldn't believe these changes were unconscious. Thinking of this, a faint smile appeared on Jiang Jing's face, and he said in a low voice, "Interesting. It seems things are going to get interesting."
Today is Monday again. I've prepared two books for you to check out and see if you're interested.

Chapter 173 Yukinoshita's plea for help, and Jiang Jing's unavailable presence.
"Kongtai, what's all the commotion about?"
Shiina Mashiro, who was on Jiang Jing's back, lay down and rested her face on Jiang Jing's shoulder, asking curiously. Strands of her hair also fell down to Jiang Jing's nose, emitting a faint fragrance.
Jiang Jing smiled and said, "I thought the station area was a bit lively, so let's take a taxi there."
Upon hearing this, Shiina Mashiro also looked at the station ahead and found that there were indeed many people waiting for the train there today. She nodded and said, "Okay, Sorata."
"Since you're feeling better, you can get off now. Does your foot still hurt?" Jiang Jing rolled his eyes as he stood on the street, ready to flag down a car.
"Huh, it seems to be okay now, Kōta." Shiina Mashiro blinked, suddenly realizing what was happening, and reluctantly climbed off Jiang Jing's back, standing obediently to the side pretending that she knew nothing.
"By the way, Mashiro, what would you want to do if you had the power to fly and teleport?" Jiang Jing suddenly asked while waiting for the car.
"Drawing," Shiina Mashiro answered without hesitation.
Jiang Jing smiled and nodded at Shiina Mashiro's decisive answer: "That's true."
But just then, Jiang Jing's phone rang.
"Hello!" Jiang Jing put the phone to his ear.
"Mr. Kanda, am I disturbing you now?" came Yuriko Uemura's voice from the other end of the line.
"It's nothing, I'm already out of school. Is there anything I can help you with?"
"I'd like to visit Mr. Kanda later. One reason is to deliver the royalties I received last month, and the other is to talk to you about the release of the third volume this month."
"I originally wanted to talk to you about these things after the banquet the day before yesterday, but you left a little early that day," said Yuriko Uemura with a smile.
"Oh, this? Sure." Jiang Jing nodded. Of course, he had no objection to someone bringing him money.
He continued, "But come over later, I'm going to the supermarket to buy groceries now, and I'll treat you to some of my cooking today."
"Ah... Kanda-sensei's cooking? Okay, I'll be there on time." Uemura Yuriko, sitting across from him, was taken aback when she heard Jiang Jing buying groceries and cooking, but quickly agreed.
"By the way, Kanda-sensei, may I bring someone with me later?" Uemura Yuriko asked politely.
"Bring people with you? Who?"
“It’s Kaguya Shinomiya, who went to the same school as Kanda-sensei and is currently interning at a publishing house. She’s in charge of Kanda-sensei’s work. I wanted you two to meet more often so it would be easier to communicate in the future,” Yuriko Uemura explained.
"Oh, sure, it'll be more lively with more people," Jiang Jing said nonchalantly.
"Thank you, Kanda-sensei. I won't bother you any longer. See you later."
"My editor is bringing over some money later, so I'm treating her to dinner," Jiang Jing explained, putting away his phone and looking at Shiina Mashiro's undisguised curiosity.
"Kouta's royalties?" Shiina Mashiro's eyes lit up upon hearing this.
"Ah."
When Jiang Jing and his companion arrived at the largest shopping mall in Ashikaga Ward, which was also the only place nearby that sold high-end ingredients, it was almost 5 p.m. because of Kasumigaoka Utaha's matter. The mall was packed with people.
"Sorata, this looks delicious." In the crowded fruit section, Shiina Mashiro picked up a ripe durian with a crack in it and brought it close to her nose to smell it.
Immediately, Shiina Mashiro put down the durian with a look of disgust, as durian is considered an unparalleled delicacy by those who like it, but those who can't stand its pungent smell.
"Put it in. I'll make you a pearl fruit pudding tonight, and this is the main ingredient." Jiang Jing pushed the cart and put the durian in.
"Is this the main ingredient, Kōta?" Although Jiang Jing's cooking skills were getting better and better, Shiina Mashiro still looked at the ugly durian with some suspicion.
Jiang Jing laughed upon hearing this: "I'm just afraid that you won't have enough to eat and will end up fighting with your senior for it."
Shiina Mashiro wrinkled her nose and protested, "That's because you never do more than necessary, Sorata." As she spoke, Shiina Mashiro made a gesture as if she were holding a very large watermelon.
Jiang Jing reached out and ruffled Shiina Mashiro's long hair, chuckling, "Haven't you heard the saying 'water overflows when it's full'? Why make so much? Just enough for everyone to eat is fine."
……
Bang! !
In the study of the Yukinoshita family, a well-known noble family in Chiba Prefecture, a young man with a sallow complexion and around thirty years old had his face bruised and swollen. He was thrown to the ground by two bodyguards, his hands tied behind his back.
Ryusuke Yukinoshita sat solemnly in the middle of the room, with his wife Mieko Yukinoshita on one side and Haruno Yukinoshita on the other.
Looking at the person on the ground, Yukinoshita Ryusuke frowned and said in a deep voice, "Yasuda-kun, my Yukinoshita family has treated you well over the years. Why did you tamper with Haruno's car and almost get her into trouble?"
Yukinoshita, standing to the side, also frowned as she looked at the person on the ground whose face was pale and gave off a very bad feeling.
This person is named Harutaka Yasuda. According to her research, he was an employee of her father's construction company. He was of average ability, but he had worked diligently for more than ten years, so he was assigned to manage a construction project under the company.
Harutaka Yasuda's father was also a long-time employee of the construction company, but he died in an accident at the construction site ten years ago when Harutaka Yasuda had just joined the company.
"Hehehehe... You've been good to me. My father wouldn't have died if it weren't for your negligence. All these years, your feigned guilt and concern for me are just a cover for your hypocrisy." Looking at the Yukinoshita family in front of him, Yasuda Harutaka was like a lone wolf, his eyes extremely fierce.
“Ryusuke, why bother talking to someone so ungrateful? His tampering with Haruno’s car constitutes premeditated murder. Just hand him over to their people.” Yukinoshita Mieko said coldly from the side.
Looking at the young man lying on the ground, staring at him with a deep-seated hatred, Yukinoshita Ryusuke sighed deeply: "Yasuda-kun, I can say that I bear some responsibility for what happened back then, but no one wants that kind of accident to happen. I didn't expect that you would still hold a grudge after all these years."
Back then, Yukinoshita Ryusuke's construction company was only of average size in Chiba City, but it took on a very important project. However, the construction period was very tight, so the entire company was operating beyond its capacity.
Accidents are common in the construction industry, so everyone was exhausted after working hard for more than half a year and the project was about to end, especially Yukinoshita Ryusuke, who had been keeping a close eye on the project.
Just as the project was nearing completion, Yukinoshita Ryusuke, exhausted from not sleeping for two days, neglected his supervision, and the people below forgot to check the equipment that day and didn't notice.
Finally, an accident occurred due to mechanical aging, and Yasuda Harutaka's father happened to be underneath when a shelf collapsed.
Feeling guilty afterward, Yukinoshita Ryusuke made substantial compensation to the Yasuda family and continued to take care of Yasuda Harutaka, who was of average ability. However, ten years later, the family still hadn't let go of the matter.
"Hmph! The hatred for killing one's father is irreconcilable." Yasuda Harutaka, who grew up in a single-parent family, had a somewhat morbid and crazed look in his eyes, which were filled with twisted killing intent as he looked at Yukinoshita Ryusuke.
Yukinoshita Ryusuke closed his eyes, took a deep breath and exhaled, and slowly said, "Alright, every wrong has its source and every debt its debtor. I understand your desire for revenge, but why did you target Haruno? She has no grudge against you."
Upon hearing this, Yasuda Harutaka, who was on the ground, burst into maniacal laughter: "Hahahaha... How can we not have a grudge? You caused my family to be destroyed, and I will make sure your whole family dies. Originally, I was going to do it one by one, but I didn't expect that she would be so lucky as to survive."
After speaking, Yasuda Harutaka's bloodshot eyes stared intently at Yukinoshita Haruno beside him, the twisted and crazed look in them sending chills down one's spine.
Even with his good temper, Yukinoshita Ryusuke couldn't suppress his anger at this moment, slamming his fist on the table and shouting, "You're simply beyond redemption!"
Just as Yukinoshita Ryusuke was about to explode in anger, Yukinoshita Mieko waved to the two bodyguards at the door, signaling them to leave.
After the two bodyguards closed the door, Yukinoshita Mieko said in a cold and deep voice, "Yasuda-kun, considering our years of friendship and the fact that Haruno didn't have any accidents, as long as you honestly answer a few questions for me, my Yukinoshita family can let you off the hook and pretend that this never happened."
"what?"
"Mieko, are you crazy?"
Yukinoshita Ryusuke and Yukinoshita Haruno, who were standing nearby, were both stunned. Similarly, Yasuda Harutaka, who was on the ground, was also confused by Mieko's words.
You said you'd let me go?
Harutaka Yasuda's eyes were filled with distrust as he looked at Mieko Yukinoshita with a cold smile: "Do you think I would believe you?"
"Although I don't know much about that world, I've heard that the punishment for superhumans is more severe there. Do you think you have any hope of survival if we hand you over?"
"So you can only trust what I say." Yukinoshita Mieko said coldly, a hint of indifference and cunning flashing deep in her eyes, showing that she had no intention of keeping her promise.
Yukinoshita Ryusuke, who knew his wife very well, frowned. He had already guessed what she was thinking. Just as he was about to speak, his domineering wife gave him a cold look, and the words that were already on the tip of his tongue were forced back down.
