"Senior Sister...are you okay?"
Along the way, Gu Qingze followed Chen Mengli quietly. Her silence made him feel a little worried.
Although she didn't say a word, he could clearly feel the sadness surging like a tide deep in her heart.
"I'm fine, there's no need for you to worry."
When Chen Mengli said this, his tone was cold and distant, and he didn't even bother to be polite.
"Junior Brother Gu, you don't seem to belong to this world."
As soon as they entered the secret room of the exchange, before Gu Qingze could speak, Chen Mengli took the initiative.
He couldn't help but feel a little surprised, he never expected her to point this out so directly. By saying this, she indirectly admitted that she was not from this world.
Gu Qingze was about to tell his own conclusion, but Chen Mengli's gentle voice sounded again: "You guessed right, I am not from this world either."
Gu Qingze was at a loss at the moment. All the words he had prepared for testing and maneuvering seemed to have lost their use all of a sudden.
Hearing her words, Gu Qingze fell silent. It wasn't that he didn't want to respond, but he was hesitant.
He knew in his heart that as long as he revealed the truth that he had traveled through a book or was not the original owner, thunder from the sky would most likely fall.
He still remembers the terrifying power vividly. He was really worried that the thunder would not only strike him, but also cause damage to other people's newly opened exchanges.
Unexpectedly, Chen Mengli seemed to have already seen through his concerns.
"Don't worry, I'm not from this world, and I have a 'system'. I think you should know the meaning of 'system', right? Under the protection of the 'system', I can temporarily block the way of heaven for a period of time. So, you can speak with confidence."
Gu Qingze's eyes lit up. This way, Ling Xiao might be able to know about this matter.
However, just as Gu Qingze was about to express his thoughts, Chen Mengli guessed it again.
"This is limited to the two of us. If anyone else, or even this world's 'Son of Heaven', were to learn, our lives would be in danger. After all, my 'system' is too low-level."
Gu Qingze nodded slightly in frustration.
"Okay, if you have any questions, just ask directly. I still have to greet guests later. After all, we have just opened and there will definitely be a lot of customers. I'm worried that Lan Yue will be overwhelmed by relying on her alone."
Chen Mengli said this with a worried look on her face, but it was unknown whether this was her real concern.
"Senior Sister, did you come with your own system after transmigrating into the book?"
Gu Qingze thought for a moment and asked his first question.
When Chen Mengli heard his question, she was somewhat caught off guard and couldn't help but chuckle.
"Junior brother, please don't joke around. There's no such thing as traveling through a book."
There was no transmigration into the book at all? Then how did this little world come into being?
When Gu Qingze heard Chen Mengli's answer, he couldn't help feeling a little flustered. He seemed to be eager to prove something.
"But I did come from a book. I read a novel in my original world, gave it a bad review, and then came to this world. Except for the lack of a system, everything else fits the description of traveling through a book."
"So that's how your world defines transmigration. If you must put it that way, it kind of is. After all, it's like crossing from one world to another."
