Chapter 201 Modern Girl
Chu Ge once said that Qiu Wuji is now very similar to normal modern people in most of the time, and there is basically no difference in daily conversations and behaviors. Because she learns things too quickly, faster than ordinary ancient people who travel through time. After all, the consciousness and memory of immortals are different, and she can also go back to the world in the book to steal time.
In fact, confirming the relationship is also an important turning point. From then on, Qiu Wuji developed the innocence and attachment of a little girl. The coldness of a clan leader became less common, and... he understood feelings, which is very important.
In the past, Zhu Mengmeng was heartless, but now she is a more sophisticated person. Just the simple questions about love that Qiu Wuji asked are enough to make people wonder if there is something wrong with this person. A woman who claims to be 25 years old asks questions that even a 15-year-old girl wouldn't ask...
But now Qiu Wuji can teach Zhu Mengmeng instead...
But there are still several major differences that cannot be completely eliminated in just a few months of study.
One is the sense of existence from childhood to adulthood, a network woven by social attributes.
The other is the thoughts and ideas of modern people, the formation of which is a subtle process over the years, based on many historical influences and socio-economic and cultural factors. This is very different from the thoughts of a cultivator.
For example, Qiu Wuji simply couldn't understand the difference between the idea of lying down and laziness, nor could he understand why everyone liked to watch others cook and show their affection.
Qiu Wuji has started reading Marxist philosophy these days, which is quite difficult to understand.
This is not a question of philosophical thought, but rather revolves around the understanding of the social and economic systems. If you want to understand it in depth, there are many disciplines involved.
So we need to "learn". Learning can solve these two problems together.
But Qiu Wuji probably won't apply for any adult school. Just take your time. We all have plenty of time.
Now I plan to learn to drive and get a driver's license, which is good...
Zhu Mengmeng's hospitalization was not a big deal, it was purely a convalescence for mental exhaustion. Old Zhu had been discharged from the hospital two days in advance, and Zhu Mengmeng was also discharged today, and Qiu Wuji had made an appointment to pick her up.
Arriving at the hospital, Zhu Mengmeng's complexion was rosy. She had slept so much these past few days that she not only did not lose weight but gained weight instead. She no longer looked listless and depressed as before, and she smiled again: "Qiuqiu~ I miss you..."
"Evil capitalists." Qiu Wuji said disdainfully: "Most people would lose half their lives if they were sick for a few days, but you are in an independent ward and are growing fat and healthy."
"Oh?" Zhu Mengmeng was very surprised: "Even you can scold capitalists?"
"What's wrong?" Qiu Wuji puffed out his chest and said, "I grew up under the red flag. Isn't it my job to scold the capitalists?"
Zhu Mengmeng reached out to touch Qiu Wuji's forehead in astonishment: "You don't have a fever, do you? I'm not a capitalist at all. At least I didn't ask the tea-making girl in my shop to work 996..."
Qiu Wuji stopped her hand, looked her up and down for a while, and asked, "Are you feeling okay?"
"Yeah, what else can we do now that things have passed? We should look forward, and we must live on." Zhu Mengmeng stretched and sighed, "Ah... It's like a big dream."
Qiu Wuji asked: "What are your plans for the future?"
"You ask a man?"
"yes."
Zhu Mengmeng smiled and said, "I have really settled down this time. I won't look for someone anymore. I'll just go with the flow in the future. If I meet someone I like, I'll talk to him. If not, I'll just live on my own."
Qiu Wuji could tell that these words were sincere, at least at this moment.
She sighed in her heart. Zhu Mengmeng seemed to have not changed much, still laughing and joking, without a gloomy face, but she was finally not the same person as before.
"Qiuqiu, I want to train my superpowers. Do you have any good ideas?" Zhu Mengmeng suddenly asked.
Qiu Wuji asked back: "Do you want to be able to protect yourself? Or what do you want?"
"The power of self-preservation, I think. The other day you told me that my ability was quite impressive, but I always thought I was a weak and powerless little princess."
Qiu Wuji couldn't help but complain: "You are a powerful person who can break the cause and effect, but you use this ability to snatch men. If you weren't my friend, I would have wanted to beat you to death. Why are you asking me?"
Zhu Mengmeng said weakly: "In fact, I was able to cut other people's love lines before, but it was because those lines were too weak. I couldn't cut the ones that were a little stronger. I just tried to see if I could cut the connection between me and the little nurse, but I found that I couldn't cut it either. Logically, this connection is very weak. She would have forgotten who I am in a few days. I couldn't cut it..."
"That's more normal. Otherwise it would be too outrageous. That day should be the limit of your potential." Qiu Wuji sighed: "It seems that you can only cut the kind of line you can recognize, and it must be a relatively weak line. If you can't recognize the line, no matter how weak it is, it won't work."
"I can guess that the thread refers to the connection that she helped me heal, is that not okay?"
"Wait until you can see it yourself, like recognize the love line at a glance, right? That means you have mastered the meaning of that line." Qiu Wuji complained: "You are amazing, Mengmeng. You can't even recognize such a simple line, but you can recognize the love line."
"Stop cursing, stop cursing..." Zhu Mengmeng said, "So the direction of my training is to try to recognize other lines, and try to cut off stronger connections after recognizing them?"
"It should be clear that this is the direction." Qiu Wuji thought for a while: "I don't know how to train superpowers, but the Black Room has special equipment for training mental strength. You can go to the Black Room with your father. The people there are pretty good."
Zhu Mengmeng pouted and said, "My father hasn't developed anything in all these years. He has the ability to tell fortunes, but he didn't even know that his son-in-law wanted to kill him."
“That may not be the case…” Qiu Wuji smiled: “He said in front of Cai Zhijian that he would sell the mine to the state. Was he really not trying to provoke him? When we caught Cai Zhijian, you were so excited. Look how calm he was.”
"Huh..." Zhu Mengmeng's eyes widened.
It seems like everyone knows the whole story, but I am the only one who is as stupid as a fool.
Qiu Wuji suddenly leaned over to ask, "How thick is the love line between Chu Ge and me?"
Zhu Mengmeng looked at her with a half-smile, and after a while she said, "Although I really want to lie to you and make you anxious... seeing how cute and nervous you are, I'd better forget it."
"Then tell the truth!"
"The truth is, your threads are very messy and the connections are extremely weird, but the one that represents love is the thickest I have ever seen in my life, thicker than some people's."
Qiu Wuji: “?”
"Oh, I'm talking about the chain." Zhu Mengmeng said nonchalantly, "Don't worry that I will steal your husband. I don't think I can break it even if I bite it with my teeth."
Qiu Wuji was happy in his heart, but said unhappily, "I want to learn how to drive."
"Is that the kind of driving I did? Only internet hooligans can do that."
Qiu Wuji grabbed her collar and said, "It's enough for me to learn that thing from Chu Ge. Your level is too low! I'm talking about a real car now, not your frog car!"
"Are you really going to buy a car?" Zhu Mengmeng became interested: "Come on, let me help you with some advice."
"No, recommend me a driving school to learn how to drive first." Qiu Wuji hesitated and said, "I don't want to be crowded with a group of men. Chu Ge doesn't like it either, so I don't want to go to a driving school by myself, so I came to ask you."
"That's easy. There's a friend I met doing yoga with who is a female driving school instructor. She mostly recruits female students, so I went to her."
"I knew Mengmeng had the best connections~"
"Of course. After all these years, who doesn't know a few people? Your Chu Ge stays at home writing books every day and has police classmates. How can he be like you who suddenly jumped out of the mountains..."
Qiu Wuji was not moved at all after hearing this. He held her arm as if nothing had happened and said, "Don't I have you too..."
"That's true..." Zhu Mengmeng happily put her arm around Qiu Wuji's shoulders and said, "Girl, stay with me from now on~"
"Be careful or we'll hit you with Chu Qiu Tang."
"Isn't it Qiuqiutang? How come it became Chuqiutang again..."
"There are a lot of fans of Chu Ge and I! Over 100,000!"
"Eh... there's such a thing? Do you want me to be your fan leader?"
"What is that?"
"I'll teach you..."
The chirping sound penetrated into the white frog car, and the frog car started, making a beeping sound and drove away.
Being a modern girl with friends and aspirations is so simple and happy.
