The furry creature in my arms was still moving around unruly.
In the blink of an eye, he and the cat were swept deep into the vines.
…
When he fell into the water, Shen Que was still thinking:
How could he, the first commander of the empire, fall into the enemy's trap and be fooled by a kitten!
So shameful!
The cool water covered my head.
For some unknown reason, the roots dragged him into a deep pool.
Water is also a living thing, wrapping him, the outsider, and causing him to sink continuously.
Shen Que felt that the roots this time were different from the last time. Although their style of behavior was just as annoying, they were more impatient and more powerful, strangling him to the point where he could hardly breathe.
"Admiral..."
As soon as Shen Que opened his mouth, he was given a mouthful of water.
The "water" entered his throat and then quickly slipped away in horror.
The golden "sunlight" sprinkled on the water, as if casting a gauze-like filter over everything in front of you.
The oxygen is disappearing.
He struggled a bit, but the roots only tightened.
Shen didn't know whether he would drown in the ocean of life, but he did have a very real feeling of drowning.
The feeling of suffocation became stronger and stronger, and his instinct urged him to resist quickly. Coldness and despair were like a snake, slowly crawling up his spine.
However, the feeling coming through the nerve endings is so familiar.
Shen Que closed his eyes and allowed himself to lose consciousness in the water.
…
When he opened his eyes again, Shen Que found himself standing in a brightly lit shop.
The shop is not big, and the windows and floors are made of wood.
A string of handmade wind chimes hangs outside the white curtains, and below is a row of lovely green plants. The sunlight shines through the window onto the wooden floor, which is very warm.
A variety of breads and desserts are displayed in the transparent window, and a sweet aroma comes from another door behind the bakery.
Shen Que stared at all this in a daze.
All the scenery was covered with a layer of golden gauze.
Like a dream.
At this time, the door opened.
The wind from opening the door set the wind chimes on the window ringing, making crisp sounds.
Shen Que looked towards the door and saw Ann Luya, who was about ten years old, wearing an ordinary little skirt and sheepskin boots, dragging a bag of flour in from outside.
"Xiao Que!" An shouted as soon as he saw him, "Don't just stand there, come and help."
As soon as she finished speaking, Shen Que found that his body moved.
He ran to the door and helped An pick up a corner of the flour. It seemed like he was the one, or someone else was controlling his body, and he called out, "Sister."
At the same time, Shen Que saw his own reflection in the glass.
He was a little boy about five years old, thin, wearing a white shirt and overalls.
He and Ann carried the flour to the door behind the window, and Ann raised her hand and knocked twice.
The door opened a crack, and a stronger smell of bread wafted out, followed by Carolina's figure.
Her long hair was tied with a rubber band and draped behind her. She wore an apron with her sleeves rolled up high.
"Wow, you're so capable." She picked up the flour and praised.
Through the crack in the door, Shen Que saw that the room was the kitchen. There were many fermenting dough balls on the long table, the boiler was burning, and the oven was glowing with orange light.
Carolina carried the flour into the kitchen and handed Ann a sign that said "Closed."
"Hang it on the door for me."
Ann took the sign and trotted to the door.
"Why are we closing down today?" Shen Que heard himself asking.
An was like a little tiger, running at full speed, but suddenly braked and turned to look at him.
"Did you forget? Mom's friend is coming today!"
"What friend?" Shen Que leaned over the bread cabinet and looked at Anla puzzledly as he opened the door and hung up the sign.
At this time, Carolina came out of the kitchen again and handed Shen Que a cookie, "Try it."
He took the cookie and took a bite.
“Not sweet enough.”
"That's perfect." Carolina wiped her hands on her apron. "Fanfan said her kids don't like sweet food."
"Aren't the cookies today sweet anymore?" Shen Que chased his mother all the way to the kitchen and looked up to ask.
"Of course not!" Carolina put her hands on her hips, looking like she was about to do something big. "I'm going to make a pot with mustard! Just for that idiot Pei Li!"
"I want to help!" An raised his hand happily. "A student from Tianfu Star transferred to our class. She gave me a super spicy recipe! I tried it on Feng Shixu! He cried because it was so spicy!"
An ran towards the kitchen while talking. When she passed by Chen Que, she whispered, "I heard that Mom's friends are lords! They have an entire planet, which is bigger than the entire Bailu City!"
"Is the lord an idiot?" Shen Que was halfway through speaking when An covered his mouth.
"Don't swear!" She taught Shen Que seriously.
Shen Que nodded obediently.
After An's figure disappeared in the kitchen, Shen Que, who was left alone in the store, became clear-minded again.
It was as if he was pulled out of a certain scene. He couldn't control himself during the conversation, but when he was alone he realized that this was not his world.
But even if it was fake, Shen Que's heart still jumped for joy.
He knew who was coming today!
Carolina's bread is still fermenting, and it will take a long time before Ai Fan and Pei Li arrive, but he has already started looking forward to it.
He sat on the high stool prepared for guests, swinging his calves and spinning in circles.
In this world, Carolina is not the queen, and An is not the princess. They are ordinary people, and he can meet and get to know Pei Ji normally.
