Qiu Shui glanced at Mu Xue, only to see him turn his head away.
How effeminate?
Tian Ma Xingke stroked his chin and thought for a moment, then suddenly realized something.
You two are a perfect match!
"Where to begin?"
Qiu Shui wondered to herself.
"His name is Qiu Haitang, and your names together mean 'autumn water and begonia.' Do you think you're a good match?"
Qiu Shui was stunned for a moment, the words "begonia" kept echoing in her mind.
"Begonia?"
She said softly.
"Is she too effeminate?"
"Tian Ma Xingke asked with a smile."
"Shen Shiyang, you've gone too far," Qianshan Muxue said awkwardly.
Tian Ma Xingke smiled.
"Shiyang, don't forget you haven't paid your rent yet, and you still have living expenses to cover."
Qianshan Muxue began to take revenge on him.
Tian Ma Xingke's smile remained unchanged.
How could such a small thing possibly discourage him? He can thrive even in this chaotic and awful city!
Qiu Shui sat to the side, watching them bicker, and felt a faint flutter in her heart at the name "Qiu Haitang".
"Qiushui, you've arrived?"
A simple greeting reached my ears.
Qiu Shui looked up and found Huang Mu standing in front of her at some point. She looked around but didn't see anyone else.
"What about them?"
"who?"
Huang Mu looked at her and asked.
Qiu Shui sensed something was wrong. His smile became somewhat eerie, and his movements slowed down considerably.
"Your sister and Black Pearl."
As Qiu Shui spoke, her eyes secretly searched for the steward. Although Mu Xue and Xing Ke were right beside her, she still felt a chill rise from behind her.
She lost her sense of security.
"So they haven't arrived yet. I'll go find them first." Huang Mu turned and walked in another direction.
As he left, Qiu Shui's body temperature gradually returned to normal, and her blood began to flow and circulate again in her blood vessels.
"Autumn Water, Autumn Water?"
A few calls pulled her back to reality. Qiu Shui glanced at the traveler and saw his nervous expression.
"Um?"
"Let's go inside."
Mu Xue stood up and said.
...
After a while, Huang Mu and Huang Mi, the siblings, and the president entered the exhibition hall. Qiu Shui saw them, said something to Mu Xue, and got up to go over to them.
"Qiushui, you've made me search everywhere!"
Black Pearl pouted and said.
"I went out with Muxue and the others yesterday and lost track of time," Qiushui said, sitting down next to her.
Are you two getting married soon?
Huang Mi glanced at her indifferently.
"Probably."
Qiu Shui avoided the topic.
After a couple has known each other for a few months, the housekeeper will remotely assess the relationship and then inform the elders to communicate with the other party.
She used to think that Xiaoxiao's marriage was too sudden, as she didn't know her husband at all. Now that it was her turn, she realized she would do the same thing.
Time flies!
"Black Pearl sighed."
When they met, Qiu Shui was a very awkward girl in terms of interpersonal skills. Now, in the blink of an eye, she has someone who loves her and has become more confident.
It's a pity she didn't.
"do you have a boyfriend?"
While everyone else was watching the video, Qiu Shui quickly squeezed her into a corner and whispered a question to her when Huang Mi wasn't paying attention.
"I don't plan to get married."
Black Pearl answered earnestly.
"Why?"
"I won't tell you. Ah... if you two really get together someday, could you send me your videos?"
Upon hearing this, Qiu Shui sensed something was off about her.
What's wrong with you today?
“It’s nothing.” Black Pearl easily shifted to a more comfortable sitting position. “Some people are destined to grow old alone.”
She winked at her.
"So you were here!"
Huang Mu's voice came from behind, startling Qiu Shui.
She felt increasingly overwhelmed by the situation around her today, and now she regretted keeping the housekeeper out.
Why are you behind us?
Black Pearl glanced at him.
"I'm going to scare you."
Huang Mu smiled, but although his expression was one of laughter, his eyes gradually lost their luster and became tinged with sadness.
Qiu Shui suddenly realized that Black Pearl's words earlier were probably said to him on purpose. She knew that Black Pearl was always very cautious.
In the past, in Heian-kyo, whenever there was a Kirin or a yokai in the grass, she was always the first to spot it and tell them, so just now...
"By the way, Huang Mu, did you come looking for me just now?" Qiu Shui recalled what had just happened.
"Brother, so you were here all along."
When Huang Mi saw him, fearing that Hei Zhenzhu would hurt him again, she pulled him directly to her side in front of them.
Huang Mu was innocently pulled away. Qiu Shui didn't hear his answer, but she saw that Huang Mu's face clearly froze when he heard "Did you just look for me?"
...
...
We spent the whole day at the exhibition hall, and then went out to buy souvenirs from Heian-kyo and the local area in various places. Everyone was laughing and chasing each other, having a great time.
Happy times always pass by in a flash.
During a short dinner gathering in the evening, while everyone was chatting, the newbie received a phone call and suddenly announced that he was leaving.
The call was from his mother.
"I'm so angry! I only stayed for two days and one night, and she's already in a hurry to go home!"
The newbie put down his phone and said with dissatisfaction.
She's worried about you.
Black Pearl smiled, and under the beautiful neon lights, she was as beautiful as a sparkling yet noble pearl.
“You’ve arrived here and settled in safely, but your parents are still waiting for you to come home. They’re worried about you.”
The Black Pearl is now like a learning-oriented electronic teacher.
The newbie looked at her in surprise and shook her head, saying, "I don't have a father, I only have a mother."
The smile on Black Pearl's face vanished.
"What was the sound I heard earlier?"
"That's an electronic butler!"
The newbie said unhappily.
"That guy is always nagging me, much more annoying than my mom. And the system update costs so much money, plus the family..."
He couldn't continue because the phone rang again.
"Qi Qing, it's getting late, you should go now. Don't forget to let us know when you get home in the game," the guild leader instructed him.
"Well... goodbye everyone."
The youngest among them shyly bid farewell, and he was the one they were most worried about these past two days.
The chairman called a car for him.
Will we ever have a chance to meet again?
Just before getting on the flying car, the newbie turned around and asked a question, and the guild leader gave him an affirmative look.
“When you grow up, come find us. We’ll take you to all sorts of places to play,” Huang Mu said with a smile.
The newbie smiled.
Goodbye, Brother Huangmu.
He waved to Huang Mu.
After meeting him in person, he became a complete fan of Huang Mu. It's true that people are different in real life than in games.
Qiu Shui was very envious of this.
After seeing off the newbie, the group walked along the dimly lit road. After crossing an intersection, Huang Mu suddenly quickened his pace and bowed to everyone in front of him.
