"More than that!" Shi Zhu was calmer than when they first met, but his temperament was still lively: "Their children can already help with cooking!"
"Congratulations." Xie Purou asked a soul-searching question: "Why didn't you invite me to the wedding?"
Qian Wushuang smiled appropriately: "Shopkeeper, how busy are you...just look at this prosperous world and you will know."
They had almost finished drinking, so they left first.
Before leaving, Shi Zhu and Chu Ling clamored to go back and compete in dumpling-making skills. They were still a pair of noisy and bickering bickering lovers.
Xie Purou watched them leave, sighing, "Ten years have passed, and they're almost thirty. How come they're still acting like they're in their twenties?"
Yue Xiwen drank too much and couldn't see her face clearly.
He reached out and pinched her face, "Yeah, ten years have passed, how come you haven't changed at all?"
"We've only known each other for a few years, but it feels like ages have passed."
Xie Purou smiled and said, "This is called revolutionary friendship."
There were only Yue Xiwen, Qiu Kan and Xie Purou at the scene. Qiu Kan wanted to take advantage of the alcohol to openly tell Xie Purou his true feelings that had been suppressed last time due to the important matters of family and country.
There were ripples in his black eyes, and hidden and restrained love flowed in his eyes. As long as she looked into his eyes, that love would overflow uncontrollably.
"Now that our country and family are at peace... I have something I've wanted to say to you for a long time."
He wanted to say something, but Xie Pu Rou didn't want to listen.
She casually grabbed a blanket and covered Yue Xiwen with it. She made a hushed gesture to Qiu Kan: "Shh..."
"She's asleep."
"It's getting late, you should go back too. We can talk about it later if there's anything."
There's still a long way to go, and since it's been delayed for so many years, there's no need to rush. But for some reason, Qiu Kan felt like if he didn't say it today, he'd never have the chance to say it again.
At his age, he also understands that when an adult rejects something, it means rejection.
Thinking of this, he became more determined.
"I'm not forcing you. I just want to tell you, not for you to respond."
"I like you. I have liked you for many years. You said that your country is not at peace. I understand."
While Xie Purou and Yue Xiwen were recovering their lost territory, he was also doing as much as he could. Besides serving his country and his people, he also wanted to follow in her footsteps, and he waited for the day when his country would be at peace!
He waited for this day.
"Whether you accept it or not, I just want you to know. We have a long way to go, so I'm going back today."
"Goodbye..." He looked at her deeply.
After saying this, he smiled with relief and turned away.
Xie Purou pretended she hadn't heard anything and waved goodbye to him as usual, smiling: "Be careful on the road, don't embarrass Chief Qiu!"
"goodbye……"
Xie Purou wanted to help Yue Xiwen back to the bedroom, but as soon as she touched her, she opened her eyes.
She held her hand tightly, just like Xie Pu Rou had held hers when they went to the chemical plant together many years ago.
"I'm drunk and don't want to go back to my room. It's boring. Can we go sit on the swing over there?"
"Okay." Xie Purou helped her over.
A blush crept up Yue Xiwen's eyes from her cheeks. She buried her head in Xie Purou's shoulder and tried not to change her voice: "I don't think I've ever given you any gifts."
Xie Purou smoothed her windblown hair and said, "Revolutionary friendship doesn't need those formalities."
The two stopped talking and leaned against each other quietly.
After a long time, Yue Xiwen didn't know how much psychological preparation she had done, "Will you come back?" The tone of her voice changed as soon as she opened her mouth.
Xie Purou sighed: "Did you guess it?"
"Um……"
She brought many things that current science cannot explain, things that should have been known earlier...
"Yes." Xie Purou said to Yue Xiwen the same words she had said to Qingche.
"Then I'll wait until the next time we meet." Yue Xiwen moved, threw herself on Xie Purou and hugged her.
I don't want to say anything pretentious, but I feel like if I don't say more, I'll never have the chance to say it again.
She leaned close to Xie Purou's ear and said, "This time, it's my turn and the child's turn to wait for you to come back."
Xie Pu Rou couldn't help it any longer and hugged her back tightly, tears streaming down her face.
A ray of strong light illuminated the earth, and everyone seemed to sense something and opened the windows.
All I could see was the girl riding away on a dragon...
For a moment, everyone in the base watched the figure leave.
People were crying together. More than ten years after the end of the world, they had returned to or even surpassed the living standards before the end of the world under the leadership of the shop owner. All of this was brought to them by that little figure.
Countless silver-white filaments were gathering above the base, forming a powerful force that followed Xie Pu Rou's figure.
A rumor spread across the bases, big and small: "The shop owner is a fairy who has come down to earth to save all living beings. Now that her merits are fulfilled, it's time for her to return."
Everyone felt that since the merits had been fulfilled, they should be worshipped with incense.
Since the day she left, various bases have begun carving statues of the shop owner and building temples.
…
A voice as if from outside rang out: [This mission has been successfully completed. As this plane needs to be maintained, please select a successor for this plane.]
Xie Pu Rou opened her eyes, and all she could see was the task settlement page.
"Yue Xiwen."
In fact, she had never given Yue Xiwen any gifts. She hoped that with the blessing of the heir, she could share her share and persevere for their common goal.
[The successor is successfully selected. The successor will replace the host and take over the B&B again. ]
"Um……"
[Host, please choose to rebirth or continue to perform the next task]
In a flash of light, M80 appeared before her, using his physical form for the last time, his eyes looked at her tearfully: [Host, are you also going to say goodbye to me?]
Xie Purou stroked the little panda with her right hand, rubbing and kneading it. It felt really good and she could never get tired of it.
"No rebirth, continue the mission. I will work hard to earn you an entity in every plane."
Really? Really? Really?
[Then I will transform into a puppy in the next dimension. Anyone who dares to be mean to me will be bitten by me!]
"Hahaha……"
[Oh, and there's also a privilege that can be exchanged for a mysterious fragment.]
[The main system, based on the tasker's consideration, has granted a special privilege... Congratulations to the host for receiving the privileged reward of traveling back and forth to this plane!]
[Because the collected faith value of this plane is too high, the host can return to the space station to upload the mission completion data and return to the apocalyptic plane! This plane still enjoys all rewards.]
Xie Purou was dumbfounded. She had never encountered anything like this before! "What does this mean?"
[This means that if the host wants to stay in this plane, he can stay! ]
Xie Pu Rou fainted: Okay!
