Zhang Shaozhong exhausted himself, using gestures and guessing to finally get the two ancient tycoons to reluctantly accept it.

"This might really be the world many years from now."

This setting means that, although they still look at airplanes in the sky and buildings in the distance with the same gaze they would give to prehistoric monsters.

Before Zhang Shao could even catch his breath, a new and extremely real problem was thrown at him.

He glanced at Ling Qingxue!

That once elegant white robe was now wrinkled, dirty, and torn in several places, revealing a barely visible inner garment of the same material underneath, which could not conceal her snow-white skin and delicate collarbones.

Combined with her aloof and stunningly beautiful yet bewildered face, she perfectly embodies a fallen fairy who has just been... well, you know, making a powerful impact.

He glanced at Ye Meier again!

Wow, this one's even more explosive!

Her black clothes were even more tattered, exposing large patches of her snow-white skin to the sunlight. The tight-fitting clothes outlined her breathtaking curves, but she was oblivious to it, or rather, she simply didn't care.

She just stood there casually, glancing around with seductive eyes, exuding a contradictory aura of "I'm not someone to mess with, but I'm very alluring."

Finally, he looked down at himself...

Well, it's not much better.

His T-shirt was practically tattered, his jeans had several holes torn in them, and he was so dirty it looked like he'd just been dug out of a garbage dump.

This look...

If you walk directly to the scenic area or highway at the foot of the mountain, you'll definitely be surrounded by onlookers!

Taking photos is the least of your worries; you'll probably be getting a call to the police and an ambulance from the mental hospital in the next second!

"Um...you two..."

Zhang Shaozhong steeled himself and tried to raise this serious question in the most tactful way possible.

"Our outfit... uh, I mean our clothes, are a bit... too conspicuous."

Going down the mountain like this might cause unnecessary...trouble.

Upon hearing this, Ling Qingxue looked down at her tattered clothes, and a faint blush instantly appeared on her face.

She immediately covered her chest with her hands, her eyes growing even colder, and glared fiercely at Zhang Shaozhong as if he were the one who had torn it.

Ye Meier nonchalantly tugged at her black dress, which was practically turning into a high-slit cheongsam, and scoffed:

"Trouble? Do you think I'm afraid of trouble? Anyone who dares to cause trouble, I'll gouge their eyes out!"

Zhang Shaozhong's mouth twitched:

"It's not that kind of trouble! It's... being watched! A lot of people will look at us like we're monkeys!"

They even used that…phone! Yes, the phone! It was that metal block that glowed and made a sound earlier, which they used to take pictures of us!

Then the whole world might see you like this now!

He emphasized the phrase "the whole world saw it".

Sure enough, the expressions of the two big shots changed as soon as these words were spoken.

Ling Qingxue felt extreme disgust and resistance. How could she, a dignified and aloof fairy, be reduced to the object of gossip and discussion among mortals?

Still looking so disheveled!

Ye Meier was both irritable and somewhat apprehensive. Although she was flamboyant, she did not want to be stared at by countless people in such a disheveled state where she was almost naked. Even a witch has her pride!

"Then what do you say?!"

Ling Qingxue said coldly, her tone irritated.

She was used to solving problems with cleaning spells and spare clothes from her storage magic item, but now, with her spiritual energy depleted and her storage ring unable to sense anything, she was completely helpless!

Ye Meier scratched her hair in frustration and looked at Zhang Shaozhong:

"Kid, you're dressed in rags, you're not much better off! Tell me what you're up to!"

Zhang Shaozhong himself was also having a headache. After thinking for a moment, he tentatively said:

"I...I only have this one coat left. It's dirty and a bit torn, but at least it can cover me up..."

As he spoke, he began to take off his equally tattered denim jacket.

Whoosh!

Two pairs of eyes instantly focused on the poor coat!

Ling Qingxue's eyes were cold and commanding:

"Give me!"

She absolutely could not tolerate continuing to expose herself like this!

Although this lecher's clothes are filthy, they are still better than what he has now!

Ye Meier immediately objected, her eyebrows furrowing in protest:

"Why should I give it to you?! You hypocrite! I'm showing more skin here! Kid! Give me your clothes!"

She straightened her chest. Indeed... the scenery here is exceptionally beautiful, and it needs to be covered up even more.

Zhang Shaozhong's hand froze in mid-air; a tattered coat instantly became the new eye of the storm.

"Witch! Don't even think about it!"

"You hypocrite! Do you want to fight?!"

"Fine, let's fight! You think you can get away with this?!"

Even if they can only glare at each other, they can't lose in terms of momentum.

Zhang Shaozhong:

"..." Help!

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again over a tattered coat, Zhang Shaozhong was at his wits' end and quickly hugged the coat to his chest.

"Stop! Stop! Don't argue! I won't give it to anyone! Okay?"

He finally understood: giving this coat to anyone would be a death sentence!

If given to Ling Qingxue, Ye Meier could devour him whole;

If she gave it to Ye Meier, Ling Qingxue would probably torture him to death with her eyes.

"Then what do you suggest we do?!"

The two big shots glared at him angrily at the same time.

Zhang Shaozhong was on the verge of tears, looked around, and suddenly his eyes lit up:

"I've got it! We'll...we'll use what we have here!"

He pointed to the dense bushes and some vines beside him:

"Use leaves! Use vines! Slightly cover the vital parts!"

At least... at least don't look like you just escaped from... uh... one of those scenes!

Ling Qingxue and Ye Meier followed his finger and saw the rough leaves and thorny vines. Their faces showed extreme disgust and resistance.
