In the morning, Shang Yan, who was putting on a skirt, turned to Zhou Ping and said something.
There were still lingering red marks on his side, and in the bright sunlight streaming through the window, he seemed to be glowing.
"I'm going to Cangnan City. Don't bother saving me dinner tonight. I should be back the next day."
After Zhou Ping finished dressing, he sat down next to Shang Yan and gently touched his ear. "Where are you going to train?"
“Yes, Sister Hongying said there are new members joining, so it’s a good opportunity to get to know them.” Shang Yan reached out and took a bright yellow hairband, waving it at Zhou Ping.
The other person immediately understood and sat on the floor by the bed, with their back to Shang Yan. Just then, the wind blew in from the window, and their loose black hair touched the bright yellow hair ribbon. A pair of slender and long hands grabbed a strand of black hair and skillfully wrapped it with the hair ribbon, braiding it.
In no time, she had braided a small braid. Shang Yan hummed an unknown tune, tied a bow at the end of her hair, and then produced white and purple daphne flowers to adorn the gaps in the braid.
"Wow, it looks so good!" After admiring his masterpiece for a while, Shang Yan sat on the edge of the bed, put his arm around Zhou Ping's shoulder who was sitting on the floor, and lowered his head to kiss Zhou Ping's neck.
Zhou Ping's neck turned slightly red. He turned his head to look at Shang Yan, who was nestled in the crook of his neck, and asked, "Really?"
Shang Yan conjured a bunch of flower petals and showered them over the two of them. "Of course, you're very pretty!"
Petals fell gently as he embraced the person in front of him from behind, his face beaming with a bright and captivating smile.
Zhou Ping reached out and rubbed his face. "Alright, alright, stop scattering flower petals... It'll be a hassle to clean up later."
Shang Yan acted as if he didn't understand, with a lot of seeds still in his palm. This was a new skill he had recently come up with, and he only thought it was fun, completely unaware that it had caused Zhou Ping a lot of trouble.
Poor Zhou Ping not only had to watch over the bookstore after watching Shang Yan leave, but also had to clean up the mess in his bedroom.
"Remember to come back early. Are you sure you'll be okay going alone?"
"Don't worry, I've been going alone for the past two years, nothing will go wrong, and I shouldn't stay there for too long..."
After watching Shang Yan leave, Zhou Ping reached out and pulled a book from the bookshelf, then began to read it intently.
Shang Yan didn't take the usual route to Cangnan City this time, or rather, he didn't walk at all.
With the wind whistling in his ears, 019 suddenly appeared beside Shang Yan, somewhat shocked. "When did you learn to fly?"
Shang Yan, who was flying through the air, chuckled, "My divine essence has already awakened halfway, so it's reasonable for me to be able to fly, right?"
"So... you remember now?" 019 cautiously asked, leaning close to Shang Yan. As a considerate system, it always felt a little uneasy when Shang Yan's past memories were mentioned.
Although I don't know what this guy went through in the past, I can tell he must have had a very difficult time.
Seeing its hesitant and awkward movements, Shang Yan knew what the little yellow ball was thinking. "Half and half, it hasn't remembered everything yet."
The little yellow ball circled Shang Yan twice, then asked, "So what realm are you at now?"
"Can't you detect it?" Shang Yan smiled enigmatically. "Take a look at the system panel."
019: ...
It seems like that little shark was smiling maliciously just now.
[Didi - System panel has been displayed.]
Name: Shang Yan (Chu Changliu)
Realm: The ceiling of humanity (?)
The Law: Life and Death, ? ? , ? ?

Plucking leaves and letting flowers fall: ?
019 was puzzled, "Plucking leaves and sending flowers flying? Huh? What kind of skill is that?"
"So, let's plant flowers?" Shang Yan opened his palm, where several flower seeds lay quietly. Under his encouragement, they took root, sprouted, and bloomed in no time.
019 was silent for a moment, then said, "You didn't learn this skill just to please Zhou Ping, did you?"
There's something fishy going on behind their backs every day!
“…”, Shang Yan looked up at the sky.
Shang Yan flew very fast, arriving in Cangnan City in less than half an hour.
As I stood at the entrance of the Peace Agency, I happened to run into Hongying and Si Xiaonan, who were about to go in together.
Having seen Shang Yan wear women's clothing for two years, Hong Ying naturally reached out to greet him, even treating Shang Yan as a "sister".
"You're wearing pink this time, Sister Yan~", Hongying teased Shangyan, "Did your brother pick it out for you?"
Every time Zhou Ping is mentioned, a strange and excited light appears in Si Xiaonan's eyes. She joined the team a year ago, and one day during training, she mistook Shang Yan for him. She only realized something was wrong when Shang Yan spoke.
Shang Yan was already used to it, and even showed a refreshing and clean smile, answering generously, "No, my sister bought it this time!"
Zhou Ping rarely picks clothes this pink; only Shang Qingqian would choose something like this for him.
Thinking about the maid outfit he had received before... Shang Yan couldn't help but cover his face.
What does my sister really think of him and Zhou Ping?!
Upon hearing that it was Shangyan's sister who bought it, the gossip in Si Xiaonan and Hongying's eyes dimmed considerably, as if something had been extinguished.
Si Xiaonan leaned forward and adjusted her glasses. "Brother Shangyan, I haven't met your husband yet. Is he here to pick you up and take you home?"
Unfortunately, Zhou Ping came to take over Shang Yan's place, but Si Xiaonan was not there at the time, so they did not meet.
Hongying became interested again and asked with great enthusiasm, "That's right, I've only seen him come here twice. Is he really that comfortable with you out here?"
(At this moment, Zhou Ping, who was far away in Xijin City, couldn't help but pick up the Dragon Elephant Sword that was placed aside. He really couldn't concentrate on reading anymore. Shang Yan had only been gone for half an hour, and he was already somewhat absent-minded.)
I wonder if Shang Yan will remember to eat when he's out...
"Of course you can rest assured. I won't make a fuss or cause any trouble. There's no one more worry-free than me!" Shang Yan puffed out his chest.
The three of them walked into the Peace Agency while talking. On the way, Shang Yan patted Si Xiaonan on the shoulder.
"Xiao Nan, this is for you." He handed her a seed, a seed the size of a grain of rice, nothing special.
Si Xiaonan's expression froze for a moment. She opened her palm and put the seeds away. "Why are you giving me seeds?"
