This is a threat!
A blatant threat!
Damn it, she actually started to worry.
"...If you're free, you can come home with me for the New Year. It'll be more lively with more people, and it's just one more pair of chopsticks, isn't it?" Her invitation sounded rather insincere.
Li Shi quietly observed her expression for a moment, but saw that her brows furrowed and her dark face was no longer as relaxed as before. His eyes flickered slightly, and the previously faint oppressive and domineering aura seemed to be pierced by a needle and instantly dissipated.
"I was just kidding. If you don't want to, I won't go."
He lowered his eyes and said softly.
Hearing him say that, Zheng Quchi felt a little embarrassed.
Although he is a dangerous person, he hasn't done anything bad yet. Besides, he helped her a lot not long ago. She can't turn against him too quickly; she should do it slowly.
"It's not that I'm unwilling, it's just that my house is small, and if you stay overnight, you'll have to sleep in the same room as my brother. I'm mainly worried that you'll feel uncomfortable."
Teacher Li seemed to believe her false explanation, and his pale face warmed up a little: "It's okay, I don't need to sleep."
"..." No need to sleep? That's amazing? Do you think you're Master Hai Deng?

We can't possibly have to visit relatives even during Chinese New Year, a time for family reunions...
No, she needs to think about this carefully.

When Zheng Quchi and Master Li returned to the construction site, it had already started to snow lightly, but fortunately the snowfall was not heavy and did not affect the start of work.
"ah--"
"Watch out! Watch out!"
"Attention everyone down here! Someone slipped and fell!"
In the distance, the craftsmen's panicked shouts could be heard.
Hearing the commotion from afar, Zheng Quchi rushed over before he could even see what was happening.
Upon arriving at the scene, they found the surroundings in a chaotic uproar. Everyone anxiously looked up and saw a person uncontrollably rolling and falling down the sloping rock above.
Zheng Quchi immediately recognized that a slippery accident had occurred. In rainy or snowy weather, such accidents are most likely to happen if someone climbs or moves without a safety rope.
