He turned his head and stared at Su Yueya.
“I’m not crazy, look,” Su Yueya said, opening her arms wide, “this is my space.”
Because she let go, Lu Zhengjun almost fell. He barely managed to steady himself with the help of his cane, and Su Yueya quickly helped him up again.
"What exactly happened?" Lu Zhengjun asked again.
He hadn't believed it before, but now that he was here, it was hard for him not to.
"It's a long story, and it all started from—" Su Yueya wanted to start from the beginning, but then she thought that since nurses and doctors could appear in the ward at any time, it wouldn't be safe for them to disappear like this, so she changed her words and said, "Let's go and get some time-stopping magic first."
Lu Zhengjun, who had just regained her footing, was so frightened that she almost fell over again.
What did she say?
Time has stopped?
Is this something that should exist?
"Say it again, what do you mean by stillness?"
Snap—
It looks like something broke?
Oh, so it's Lu Zhengjun's values!
Time has stopped?
His reaction almost made Su Yueya laugh to death, but it was indeed outrageous, and there was nothing wrong with that reaction.
“Let’s go, we’ll explain as we go,” Su Yueya said.
Only after pressing the button to freeze time did she feel at ease. At least for this hour, she would be absolutely safe, and no one would accidentally break into Lu Zhengjun's ward and discover her secret.
She can now properly explain things to Lu Zhengjun.
Considering Lu Zhengjun's current physical condition and not wanting him to work too hard, Su Yueya led him into the villa and sat on the sofa to chat.
"Is this sofa soft?" Su Yueya asked with a hint of pride.
When Qiao Xinru first came in, she was completely captivated by this soft sofa and made to tame it perfectly.
I absolutely love it!
Lu Zhengjun: "..."
Is this the key point?
Unmoved, the tough and unyielding Lu Zhengjun said cautiously and seriously, "Don't change the subject, get to the point!"
Su Yueya: "..."
It's not fun!
"Well, it's a long story. Back in my little village, one day I suddenly discovered I could enter this world, and then..."
"The time-stopping function I mentioned earlier wasn't something that existed from the beginning; it only appeared recently. So, based on my current understanding, this space can be continuously upgraded, but I'm not yet clear on the trigger for its upgrade."
"Upgrade?" Lu Zhengjun was overwhelmed by the amount of information he received and felt a bit dizzy.
"Oh right, I remember now!" Su Yueya suddenly blushed, her expression turning shy. "Well... actually, the mini-shop appeared around the time we first consummated our marriage, and then failed..."
What was originally a beautiful and interesting memory for the two of them has become a taboo subject now that Lu Zhengjun has lost her fertility.
Su Yueya quickly changed her tune, "Let's not talk about that, I'll continue introducing it to you."
Lu Zhengjun wasn't as sensitive as Su Yueya had imagined.
He's too busy processing all this information to have time to feel inferior about his infertility.
"The mini-mall mainly has two functions. One is to freeze time, as you just saw how it works. The other is shopping, which includes many novel items that don't exist in the real world."
"There's also a library over there, which has two main functions. First, it has all kinds of books. When I was studying medicine, I relied on studying in the library. The second function is that it can control time at ten times the speed."
Lu Zhengjun was stunned; these functions were completely beyond his imagination.
"No, the library now has another function. Speaking of which, this change is also related to you. It appeared when Xinruo and I were treating your wounds in the space on the day you were seriously injured."
"There are several more sophisticated large-scale instruments that can examine the body, which are much more advanced than those in hospitals."
At this point, Su Yueya had a vague guess: could the upgrade of the space be related to Lu Zhengjun?
She wasn't entirely sure; her judgment was based solely on the presence of the small shopping mall and the diagnostic equipment, and further investigation is needed.
"Then there's this house, which has a lot of things that make life convenient and comfortable. Whenever I see something I don't know how to use, a voice in my head will explain it to me."
“There’s another field outside that you can farm. It looks like it has no end, but I’ve tried to find out where the end is…”
"Oh, and this little thing is called a cell phone. I kept it in the library before, and one time it suddenly had instructions..."
"There's another well outside, and the water in it is called the Spirit Spring. It's really magical. It tastes different from regular water, and more importantly, it's good for your health. If you drink it for a long time, your health will keep improving!"
"I didn't know before whether people could be brought into this space. It was when we were being chased by enemy agents that I pulled Xinruo in in a moment of desperation. At the time, I was just trying it out and wasn't 100% sure."
So far, Su Yueya has only brought two people into the space, and she is not very skilled at explaining the space to others.
So the introduction sounded a bit disorganized, because she just talked about whatever came to mind without any structure.
Fortunately, Lu Zhengjun was quick-witted; he could automatically extract the key points and analyze and categorize them.
"By the way, when Xinruo and I practiced martial arts before, we cheated in the space by using ten times the speed, which is why we improved so quickly..." Su Yueya whispered.
At the time, Liu Yuying praised him for his talent. He did have some talent, but he relied more on his ability to cheat in space and practice hard over time.
"There's another thing I think is also related to space."
Lu Zhengjun had always found it strange that his two teammates were in such a bad situation compared to him.
Logically speaking, he was the one who was closer to the explosion and more seriously injured.
All three were initially treated in a temporary medical tent before being sent back to the military hospital for treatment. Why were their conditions different? Why was he in such much better condition? Was it because Su Yueya and Qiao Xinruo were so much better than the other doctors?
Even if they are very talented, there shouldn't be such a big gap between them.
Even the doctor in charge of the three of them said it was strange, and in the end could only conclude that Lu Zhengjun's physical condition was exceptionally good and her recovery ability was stronger than the other two when they got sick.
Looking back now, perhaps it was the space that helped me back then.
By using the time freeze, Lu Zhengjun's bleeding could be better controlled, and she also spent money to buy so many medicines in the small shop.
"From your description, I think it must be thanks to you, Xinruo, and the space," Lu Zhengjun said.
He was filled with many emotions at that moment.
Unbeknownst to him, he had already enjoyed the benefits of the space, even the benefit of saving his life.
