Afterwards, the two of them carried their belongings and hurried toward the place the man was going. The roads in the desert were really difficult to walk on because stepping on the sand was like stepping on mud; it was soft and not as easy to walk on as on flat ground.

The two walked and stopped frequently. By noon, it was already very hot in the desert. Every now and then, Wenxi would carry the man out to get ice cream, popsicles, or chilled watermelons...

This further convinced the men that Wenxi was a fairy; otherwise, where would these things come from?

But he didn't ask. Everyone has their own secrets, and he had no right or reason to pry into other people's secrets, especially since the other person had saved his life.

They rested when they were tired, ate when they were hungry, and drank when they were thirsty. They spent the rest of the time traveling. The two of them did not waste any time and continued on their way.

Suddenly, they saw something blurry in front of them, but it was getting closer and closer. Wenxi was very worried. "What is that?"

"Judging by its size, it should be a wolf," the man said.

"Huh? There are wolves in the desert?" Wen Xi exclaimed in surprise.

“Yes, there are not only wolves in the desert, but also other wild beasts,” the man said.

Wenxi: "So what should we do now?"

Seeing that there were more and more wolves ahead, and that they seemed to want to surround them and trap them like turtles in a jar, Wenxi was a little worried. Although she had a way to deal with it, she couldn't do it in front of others!

"Comrade, please turn around and close your eyes," Wen Xi called out.

Once the man turned away, Wen Xi quickly had the sign-in system collect all the wolves and scan the area to ensure there was no danger before continuing on her way.

"Comrade, why are you here alone? Don't you know it's dangerous in the desert?" Wenxi asked curiously as they walked.

The man said, “I came here on business, but my car broke down and I can’t drive it, so I have to walk back by myself, otherwise I will die in the desert.”

Wen Xi's lips twitched. If it weren't for her appearance, he would have ended up dying in the desert just the same way.

"Fairy, what about you? How come you're all alone in the desert?" the man asked.

"I'm here to save you. I heard your wish and came here specifically to rescue you. After I get you to your destination, I have to leave," Wenxi said.

Although time in the mission world wouldn't affect her time in the real world, the desert was just too arduous, and Wenxi didn't want to stay there long. She was afraid she wouldn't be able to get up the next morning if she returned to the real world.

The man hadn't expected that Wen Xi had come specifically to save him, and he was immediately filled with gratitude. Thinking about his current situation, he realized he had no way to repay her, and he sighed helplessly.

He was unable to repay her for saving his life.

The two traveled for two days and finally saw the courtyard wall. It was some kind of base. Wenxi didn't understand these things. They had to verify their identities to come to such a place. Fortunately, Hao Liangliang's identity certificate could be used here. Wenxi never expected that she would become a thirty or forty-year-old in the previous mission world and a twenty-something-year-old in this mission world.

But no matter how she changes, she always looks older than she actually is, because she is only eighteen years old this year.

Each mission also showed her what she would look like in the future.

"Comrade Hao, please rest in my dormitory for a while. I'll go wash up." The man settled Wen Xi down and then took some clean clothes to wash up.

Wen Xi sat on the stool without moving around, afraid that there might be some documents in his room. If she moved around or looked at them, others might suspect something. So she sat there very obediently.

The man quickly came out, and after washing up, Wenxi finally got a good look at him. She was surprised to find that he was quite handsome!

However, before, in the desert, weary from the journey, there was no way to wash up, so we couldn't see what he actually looked like.

"Comrade Hao, why don't you go wash up too? I'll take you to the canteen for lunch later," the man said.

Wen Xi entered the bathroom and then immediately went into the system kitchen. She took a shower and washed her hair, making herself clean and tidy before coming out.

Wenxi had been covering her head and face with something in the desert, so the men hadn't actually seen her face. Now, seeing such a young and beautiful girl standing in front of them, their hearts started pounding uncontrollably.

He never expected that the fairy who came to save him would be so beautiful. With that kind of looks, she could be invincible in the entertainment industry.

Seeing the man staring at her intently, her ears turning slightly red, Wen Xi coughed awkwardly. In her eyes, these mission targets were just mission targets; she wouldn't give them a second glance, much less develop any feelings for them. After all, apart from Qin Mi, she had no chance to meet the others again, and there was no need for her to develop any feelings or kinship with them.

The man snapped out of his daze, smiled shyly, and then said, "Comrade Hao, let me take you to the canteen for lunch!"

Because this is modern, the 21st century, even the canteen in the desert is countless times better than the canteen at Jin Changfeng's place. The clean and spacious canteen, with bright windows and spotless tables, makes people feel better just by looking at it.

The man led Wenxi to get the food. Wenxi carried the food and followed behind him. Just as they were about to find a table to sit down and eat, she suddenly heard a voice, "Liangliang."

Wen Xi turned her head to look over, then froze on the spot, even dropping the cutlery in her hand to the ground with a 'clatter'.

I never expected it to be Qin Mi, from the 21st century, the Qin Mi who grew watermelons at home.

Wen Xi thought she would never encounter Qin Mi from the mission world again, but she overlooked one problem: she might not encounter Qin Mi from that world, but she could encounter Qin Mi from other worlds.

Qin Mi walked excitedly to Wen Xi, staring intently at her, "Liangliang, what are you doing here?"

Seeing everyone looking at her, Wen Xi felt a little embarrassed and said softly, "I have some things to take care of here."

Qin Mi has already started working here, so he must have graduated from university, or even a master's degree. That means it must have been at least eight years since they last met, right?

Time flies! In the blink of an eye, she and Qin Mi of this world haven't seen each other for eight or nine years.

The man picked up the plate that Wenxi had dropped on the ground, cleaned up the spilled food, and then brought Wenxi another meal.

Qin Mi also brought over the food and sat opposite Wen Xi. The three of them ate at the same table. The man didn't ask about the relationship between Wen Xi and Qin Mi. Perhaps Wen Xi was Qin Mi's opportunity.
