Wen Xi then smiled through her tears, "I'll believe you for now. But if I find out you've lied to me, don't blame me for being ruthless."

The onlookers, having witnessed the whole scene, understood what had happened: Wang Xiao had been pestering Qin Mi, causing Qin Mi to argue with his fiancée and almost ruining their soon-to-be-married relationship. As a result, everyone started pointing fingers at Wang Xiao.

They didn't like Wang Xiao anymore, who was arrogant and couldn't help at all, but because her father was the boss here, they couldn't say anything or scold her. Now that she wanted to be a third party and break up someone else's engagement, how could they let such a good opportunity pass by?

"I'm sorry, everyone's laughing at me." Uncle Wang walked in angrily, grabbed Wang Xiao's ear, and tried to drag her outside.

"Uncle Wang, wait a moment." Wen Xi came over carrying oranges and candied winter melon. She gave Uncle Wang a few oranges and a handful of candied winter melon. "Uncle Wang, these are wedding candies I brought from home. If I wait until the wedding to take them out, they will probably melt, so I'm taking them out for everyone to eat first!"

"Let's just treat today as our wedding day. We're just worried that things might get complicated and something like this might happen again." Qin Mi also came over to help distribute winter melon candy.

Uncle Wang accepted their "wedding candy" and then dragged Wang Xiao away from Qin Mi's dormitory. Although he liked Qin Mi quite a bit and hoped that Qin Mi could become his son-in-law, there was nothing he could do because Qin Mi was unwilling. Besides, he already had such a beautiful wife, so why would he be interested in his plain-looking daughter?

Everyone received oranges and candies, and well wishes poured out like they were free. They even wished her and Qin Mi could have two children in three years, which made Wen Xi smile awkwardly.

She will leave once she completes her mission, and even if she has two children in three years, they won't be her and Qin Mi.

As for who had two children in three years, that remains unknown.

After everyone left, only Wen Xi and Qin Mi remained in the dormitory. Wen Xi rubbed her eyes and smiled awkwardly, "Sorry for what happened earlier. I made you laugh. I was just annoyed by Wang Xiao and didn't want her to keep causing trouble."

Qin Mi smiled and said, "After all this commotion today, Wang Xiao probably won't bother me anymore."

"That's not necessarily true." Wen Xi sat back down on the kang. "Some people will stop at nothing to achieve their goals, but if Wang Xiao is a good person, it's okay if she's a little willful. When I go back to where I used to be, you can consider her. After all, it's not easy to meet someone who truly likes you."

"I don't like her, and I won't consider her," Qin Mi said unhappily.

He has a wife now, even though she's a fairy and won't stay with him, but having a wife is still having a wife.

"Liangliang, you rest first, I'll go get you some water to wash up," Qin Mi suddenly said.

"Is there water here?" Wenxi asked, puzzled.

She still remembered how excited he was when he saw the water that morning, as if he hadn't seen water for thousands of years. She thought the place was so dry that there wasn't even a drop of water to be seen!

“There is a well, but the water level is getting lower and lower, and we don’t know how long the drought will last, so each household can only draw half a basin of water,” Qin Mi explained.

Wenxi nodded.

"Um, don't use a basin to fetch water, use a tea mug or a thermos," Wenxi reminded her. Water fetched in a basin can't be drunk; it can only be used for washing.

"Okay." Qin Mi picked up her teacup and thermos and went out.

Wen Xi locked the door from the inside and then slipped into the system's kitchen. She had received the mission last night and hadn't showered, so she couldn't go without showering today.

So Wenxi boiled a pot of water on the stove in the system kitchen, transferred her own belongings from the system warehouse, and then took a shower directly in the system kitchen.

After taking a shower and washing her hair, Wenxi felt much better, but her hair wasn't dry yet, so she didn't go out immediately. Instead, she cooked sweet potato porridge in several large pots in the kitchen, using two-thirds sweet potatoes and one-third broken rice.

This broken rice was given to me by Lin Yiwan. The best rice and flour are definitely not suitable for disaster relief, so let's use these ordinary things for disaster relief!

Even broken rice would probably sell for several yuan per kilogram on the black market. She remembered very clearly that at this time, rice and flour on the black market could sell for eight yuan per kilogram!

It's not that the black market is ripping people off, it's just that there's a severe shortage of food. Even at eight yuan a pound, the supply still can't meet the demand.

Although conditions were tough at that time, there was no shortage of wealthy people, so naturally some were willing to pay high prices for food.

After the sweet potato and rice porridge was cooked, Wen Xi turned off the stove and came out of the system kitchen. A little while later, Qin Mi returned with water. He handed Wen Xi a basin and a towel, saying, "Liangliang, go wash up. The conditions here are like this. I can't give you a better life..."

Qin Mi's expression became uneasy as he spoke. If Liangliang was willing to go home with him in the future, he would definitely work hard to give her a better life.

Wen Xi smiled faintly, "No need, I'm a deity, I have my own way of solving this. You should go wash up!"

Then she lay down.

"I'd rather not wash up and keep this water for drinking!" Qin Mi couldn't bear to waste such clean and clear well water. She knew that in many places, people couldn't even get water to drink, let alone such clean well water.

And with so little water, it's really not enough for washing up.

If he stays a little further away from Wenxi, he won't bother her with the odor, and he doesn't have any unpleasant smell on him.

When Qin Mi went to rest on the kang (a heated brick bed), Wen Xi had already fallen asleep. Qin Mi didn't know if Wen Xi was too confident in her own abilities or too trusting of him, her 'fake husband,' but she just fell asleep like that.

Qin Mi took the oil lamp and moved closer to Wen Xi. He shone the lamp on Wen Xi and looked at her carefully. The more he looked, the more amazed he became. The fairy was really beautiful and alluring. He had never seen such a beautiful girl in his life.

He was delighted and couldn't help but reach out and touch her cheek; it was so smooth and supple.

He actually met the Mountain Goddess and even 'married' her. Who else in this world could have such good fortune?

Qin Mi stared at Wen Xi for a long time, as if trying to etch her into his heart so that he would never forget her.

After a long while, he blew out the oil lamp, then lay down next to Wenxi, carefully placing his hand on her waist. He didn't know when she would leave, so he cherished every minute and second he could see her.
