Thankfully she held back. Damn it, can't they at least not come out in broad daylight and scare people?

No, that's not the point. She quickly turned to look at Sun Kaicheng, who was also looking at her. Their eyes met.

They both understood each other's meaning; they could both see Shao Yifang's true appearance—this was fucking unbelievable.

The two of them didn't say anything, but kept their heads down and quickly pulled the cart forward. This wasn't the place to discuss these things.

The rest of the journey was silent, and neither of them felt awkward, mainly because they were both deep in thought.

Qian Xiao: What's going on with Sun Kaicheng? How can he see Shao Yifang's true appearance? Didn't Shuangdan say that only he and it can see her? Could it be that Sun Kaicheng also has some kind of system?

Thinking of this, she subconsciously glanced at Sun Kaicheng. This was the first time she had really looked at Sun Kaicheng's appearance. Although Sun Kaicheng was still young, he was really good-looking, with a bit of a feminine look. If he wore two braids and a skirt, he would look more like a girl than she did.

She just usually has a straight face and doesn't smile. I guess everyone from five-year-olds to fifty-year-old aunties would like her. But no, that's not right. In this day and age, this kind of look isn't popular. Her own father's face is what's popular. This kind of face is considered ugly nowadays!

Sun Kaicheng: Comrade Erdan found out about him! How can we explain how he saw through Shao Yifang's disguise? Should we tell the truth? No, no, he promised the little system he couldn't say.

But if he were to lie, he seemed very reluctant to lie to Comrade Erdan, unless he would always lie to Comrade Erdan from now on. But how could he explain not lying? Could it be some kind of special ability of his?

While it's not that he can't tell the truth, given Erdan's personality, would he really feel comfortable using that space? He probably won't use it again, or maybe he'll just hide away and stay far away from himself.

After all, when faced with someone who knows all her secrets, the most likely decision Erdan would make is to stay away. But the thought of staying away still makes him quite uncomfortable; this is a friend he finally managed to make.

The two of them have a lot in common; they are both children in appearance but mature souls inside. It's so hard to find such like-minded friends again.

It's not that you can't tell the truth, is it? If the two of you have a shared secret, wouldn't that give you more to talk about in the future? Wouldn't it be better if you could confide in each other about things you can't tell outsiders?

As for the idea of ​​the small system, it doesn't seem to be very important.

Having spent so much time together, he understood the little system quite well. It was just a simple, childlike person. As long as he gave it some benefits and apologized properly, it would forgive him very easily.

Oh right, he also needs to have a good talk with the little system. He should be more careful when going out to play in the future. How could he be so lucky every time that he could meet someone like himself who wouldn't covet it or harm its host?

As for whether he was afraid that Erdan would leak his secret and put him in danger, he was certain he wouldn't. Come to think of it, Erdan thought they had only known each other for a year.

Actually, he and Erdan had known each other for several years. He would occasionally observe Erdan on social media. He wouldn't say he understood Erdan completely, but he trusted Erdan's character.

Even if Erdan can't accept the two of them sharing a space, he would never do anything to hurt him.

Thinking about this, he seemed to have made up his mind and stopped thinking about other things.

After returning the stroller, Qian Xiao was led by Sun Kaicheng through the winding alleys, turning left and right. They didn't know how many turns they made before they arrived at a house and began to rhythmically knock on the door.

Not long after, the door with its mottled marks was opened a crack, and Sun Kaicheng was seen outside. The door was then fully opened, revealing the person who opened it, a woman in her forties.

"Chengcheng's here! Oh my, did you bring the little one with you?" The woman was Qin Niang, the owner of the restaurant, whose real name was Qin Qin.

"Aunt Qin, this is my friend Qian Xiao. Qian Xiao, this is Aunt Qin, the owner of this restaurant."

Qian smiled and nodded in greeting, "Hello, Aunt Qin."

"Good, good, good, the young lady is pretty. Come in quickly. We have mutton at home today. You're in for a treat."

Sun Kaicheng is a regular here. His maternal grandfather loves to eat here, and after he woke up, he often brought him here for a treat. That's how he got to know Aunt Qin's family.

Qian Xiao glanced around and saw that it was a courtyard house with quite a few rooms, but there weren't many people around. It was probably a family's residence, and they were secretly running a restaurant there. I guessed that only regular customers would come here to eat, otherwise ordinary people wouldn't be able to find this place.

Occasionally, hushed voices could be heard coming from the houses they passed, presumably also there for a meal. Because it was a courtyard house, there was no main hall, only private rooms, with each room converted into a private room, offering excellent privacy.

Walking to the innermost room, which didn't look very big, Aunt Qin stopped and pushed open the door: "Is this enough for just the two of you?"

Qian Xiao craned his neck to take a look. There was a round table in the room. Although it was called a small room, it could definitely fit seven or eight people for a meal. Qian Xiao nodded to Sun Kaicheng, indicating that the room was fine.

This was the first time she had entered a relatively upscale hotel since she was born in this era, and the room was quiet and secluded, so she didn't have to worry about being disturbed.

"Okay, this place is fine. Aunt Qin, please serve the dishes as you see fit. We both have similar appetites, so don't worry about us not being able to finish."

This place is similar to a private restaurant in later times. They make whatever dishes are available that day, so there's no need to order.

"Okay, there's hot water in the house, please sit for a while, the food will be ready soon."

The two entered the house without closing the door and sat down facing each other. Sun Kaicheng poured hot water, and the two remained silent, both considering how to start the conversation. Not long after, all the dishes were served, and Sun Kaicheng finally closed the door.

"Let's eat first, fill our stomachs before we talk," what if Erdan runs away after we finish talking? We're still hungry.

Shuangdan was unaware that Sun Kaicheng was about to confess to his host. He was still commenting on the dishes on the table: "The dishes here don't serve as much as those in state-run restaurants, host. They look very expensive. Do you have enough money in your pocket to pay for them?"

"Are you stupid? I have other money in my space. I'm not that close to Sun Kaicheng, and he doesn't know how much money I have. Even if I give him that money to spend, he won't suspect anything."
