The matter was resolved in less than two days.
Gu Zixiao couldn't help but sigh to Lan Yao, "This is the first time I've ever solved a mission so quickly."
"Impossible, right? You're not lying to me, are you?" Lan Yao asked incredulously.
How could that be?
"Really. How could I lie to you about something like this?" Gu Zixiao said helplessly.
Lan Yao was somewhat embarrassed.
But thinking about it, is this a normal thing?
When she first started out in the apocalypse and her level was low, she was very slow at completing tasks.
To put it bluntly, it's still a matter of ability.
The fact that they were able to complete this mission so quickly is more or less related to her and Gu Zixiao being here.
Lan Yao: "Now that it's resolved so quickly, shouldn't we head back soon?"
Gu Zixiao: "Why go back so soon? We've come all this way. Shouldn't we bring back some local specialties?"
Furthermore, Gu Zixiao also wanted to know what the local delicacies were.
They came to the coastal area this time, and Gu Zixiao hadn't been to the coast for a long time.
"Alright then. Let's take a short walk and see what happens."
Anyway, the fish, shrimp and seafood in this coastal area are quite delicious.
After Gu Zixiao and Lan Yao finalized their plans, they told the person in charge and left.
The rest of the work didn't require their attention, and it was a waste of time for Gu Zixiao and Lan Yao to stay there, so the person in charge naturally agreed.
They had left on foot; since they were both fast, they figured it was good exercise.
They passed through several places before finally arriving at a place that looked somewhat decent.
Compared to the somewhat tense atmosphere in inland areas, the situation in coastal cities is slightly better.
Of course, it's only a little bit.
Gu Zixiao pulled Lan Yao along and found a guesthouse to rest for a while before continuing their conversation.
When the guesthouse staff saw them, they said indifferently, "Do you have a marriage certificate? Otherwise, you're just being indecent."
Gu Zixiao naturally took out her marriage certificate and letter of introduction from her backpack.
When the waiter saw what Gu Zixiao took out, he glanced at it casually and, after confirming that the two of them were indeed a couple, booked them a double room.
After all, these days, anyone who can produce a marriage certificate is definitely a real couple; the official seal on it can't lie.
After the waiter returned the marriage certificate to Gu Zixiao, Gu Zixiao carefully put it away, then took the keys and went upstairs with Lan Yao in his hand.
Once they got to the room, Lan Yao asked, "You brought your marriage certificate with you when you went out?"
Gu Zixiao replied matter-of-factly, "Of course we have to bring it. Otherwise, how can we prove we're husband and wife? If we can't prove we're husband and wife, won't that cause a lot of trouble?"
Gu Zixiao knew that Lan Yao disliked trouble the most.
As expected, Lan Yao frowned for a moment, then quickly relaxed and gave Gu Zixiao a sweet smile: "My good husband is so smart, I have to praise you for that."
Gu Zixiao: "No need for that. It's normal that you don't know this since you haven't been out for a long time."
As Gu Zixiao spoke, he took out new sheets and duvet covers from his backpack and began to tidy up their big bed.
He folded the blankets on the bed and put them on the stool, then spread out the new blankets he had brought on top of them.
All that was needed was to lay down one layer, and it was especially fluffy. He then put on a duvet cover for the blankets they would be using later, and then laid down a sheet.
This set of movements was exceptionally smooth, fluid, and fast, requiring absolutely no intervention from Lan Yao.
Lan Yao sat on a stool next to him, eating the snacks that Gu Zixiao fed her.
After he finished making the bed, Gu Zixiao said to Lan Yao, "I'll go to the washroom and get some hot water. Let's wash up quickly and rest for a bit."
Lan Yao nodded: "Okay, I understand. You can go now."
Jade Pixiu: "Master, you used to dislike Gu Zixiao quite a bit."
Lan Yao: "You said it yourself, it was before. That was so long ago. He gradually got better afterward, didn't he? Since he's changed, why am I still clinging to the past? Isn't that crazy?"
It's quite difficult to train a man who meets your expectations.
Especially when this man treats you well.
Jade Pixiu: ...
That makes a lot of sense.
Jade Abacus: "Hey Pipi, what's wrong with you? Can't stand seeing our master doing well? Otherwise, why do you always like to sow discord?"
Jade Pixiu: "...Was I trying to sow discord? I was just stating the facts."
Yu Suanpan: "Then I really thank you. Please don't be so factual in the future."
Jade Pixiu: ...
Okay!
Okay!
It's wrong, isn't it?
There's really no need for us to condemn it together.
The jade Pixiu slunk away.
Lan Yao didn't mind. After a while, Gu Zixiao brought in two kettles.
He put one of them aside, took out a washbasin, poured in some hot water, and went outside to get another basin to fill with cold water. When he felt the water temperature was just right, he said to Lan Yao, "I've already washed their basins. But just in case, you should still use the basin we brought from home to wash your face, and use their basin to wash your feet."
Lan Yao did not refuse Gu Zixiao's suggestion. She washed her face and feet first, then changed into her pajamas and lay down on the bed.
Like Gu Zixiao, she hadn't slept for almost two days.
Suddenly lying down on a comfortable bed, sleepiness naturally comes over you.
After quickly washing up with the water Lan Yao had used, Gu Zixiao lay down next to Lan Yao and cuddled her to sleep.
The two arrived in the afternoon, but ended up sleeping until the next morning.
Gu Zixiao woke up first. After waking up, he reheated the hot water and went downstairs to the front desk to renew his reservation for another day. After that, he inquired about which state-run restaurant had the best food.
The receptionist initially didn't want to talk to Gu Zixiao, but she couldn't resist the generous gifts he gave her.
They gave me two yuan.
After the waiter accepted the money, his attitude towards Gu Zixiao improved considerably, and he then pointed out two restaurants to her.
"One is a state-owned restaurant that was formerly a famous local restaurant. The other is a restaurant from out of town that specializes in seafood."
Both of these restaurants have excellent reputations in our area, and many regular customers prefer them.
Of course, compared to other local state-run restaurants, the food at these two establishments is relatively expensive.
After thanking them, Gu Zixiao went to one of the two places, which was a seafood restaurant.
When he arrived, the queue was incredibly long. He was worried that Lan Yao would get impatient, so he resorted to some extreme measures, namely, spending real money.
