Let's debut, fairy!

Chapter 18 She's Strong (Thanks to Water Over Cavities for the generous donation)

Meng Bai, who was lying on the bed, slowly opened his eyes.

He instinctively reached for his phone, opened it, and saw that it was 12 noon.

As a contestant who usually starts work at 2 PM, Meng Bai's biological clock is set to wake up at noon.

However, even if he slept for a long time in the past, he always felt like he hadn't slept enough.

But today he felt like he had returned to his childhood, and after waking up he felt an indescribable sense of energy.

It seems that incense can improve one's constitution.

This made him even more enthusiastic about filming the video today.

He sensed the two points of light in his sea of ​​consciousness again. The points of light were surrounded by purplish-red incense flames, and there were still twenty of them. He didn't know if they hadn't been naturally depleted or if they had been gradually replenished by the scattered incense flames.

He rolled over and sat up.

He turned to look at Su Xintang.

Su Xintang was still meditating with her eyes closed. She hadn't slept all night, but she didn't show any signs of fatigue or oily skin from staying up all night.

She was still fresh and clean, and Meng Bai could even smell the faint scent of camellias on her.

Without disturbing her, Meng Bai quietly admired her for a few minutes to refresh his eyes, then quietly got out of bed and tiptoed to the bathroom to wash up.

Fifteen minutes later, Meng Bai, having finished washing up, came out and saw Su Xintang already standing by the window looking outside.

"You meditated all night last night?" Meng Bai asked, wiping his wet hair.

"Mmm." Su Xintang nodded slightly.

"Is it okay to not sleep?"

"It's alright." Su Xintang was in a good mood, it seemed she had gained a lot of insights from meditation.

"After we finish filming the video, if it's still early, let's find a bigger house."

When Su Xintang heard that he wanted to change houses, she immediately said, "It would be best to find a house that is detached and far away from other people."

Meng Bai was a little surprised by the sudden request: "I thought you would advise me to save some money."

“Some money…it really can’t be saved.” Su Xintang’s cheeks began to flush as she recalled the embarrassing noises she had heard last night.

She added, "The main problem is that our spiritual practice might cause some disturbances that might not be pleasant for others to hear."

“That makes sense, but we can’t afford a detached villa for now. Let’s see if there are any big places like that in the surrounding countryside.” Meng Bai thought about it seriously.

"In short, the fewer people around, the better."

And so, the two chatted about their future plans while packing up.

Half an hour later, they stood downstairs.

Looking at the bright sunshine outside and the few pedestrians in twos and threes, Meng Bai felt a little dazed.

I used to go out like this, dragging my tired body out the door.

Now he felt refreshed and had a beautiful girl by his side.

Life,

It seems that things really are different now.

"Where are we going?"

"Let's go to Phoenix Mountain."

“Feng…” Su Xintang choked. She remembered that Meng Bai had mentioned that there was an ancient temple called Fengyan up there.

"Don't be afraid. We don't have any gods here. It's good to go and see them. It will put your mind at ease." Meng Bai understood her concerns, but there were just too many temples, big and small, in the country.

Putting everything else aside, in Meng Bai's hometown alone, every village has a temple, so there's no way to hide from them all.

“Okay.” Su Xintang nodded and reached out to take Meng Bai’s arm, as if this action gave her enough sense of security.

Meng Bai had been entangled with for a whole day yesterday, so he didn't feel anything particularly special.

As he led her outside, he said naturally, "A friend of mine is on vacation today. She'll come over to help, and she also has a sword."

The friend Meng Bai mentioned is Ning Meng, the company's receptionist, who sent Meng Bai the marketing video yesterday.

To be honest, Ning Meng became a receptionist simply because her family wanted her to find a job. This girl is a native of Shenzhen and is very wealthy.

As for her sword, it's a prop for cosplay. Of course, none of the above is why Meng Bai sought her out. The main reason is that he wants her to do Su Xintang's makeup and styling. Ning Meng is very good at this, and she also enjoys styling beautiful women.

In her words, "It's like playing a real-life version of Miracle Nikki, it's so much fun!"

Su Xintang doesn't seem like someone who wears makeup; she always goes without it.

Even if she knew how, Meng Bai didn't have any cosmetics.

Tens of minutes later...

At the foot of Phoenix Mountain, Ning Meng, who is 1.55 meters tall, is carrying an enormous bag and holding three swords. She stands in the shade, questioning her existence.

"What the hell?"

What am I doing?

"How could I possibly agree to let that good-for-nothing Lao Meng come hiking?"

"On such a hot day, wouldn't it be wonderful to stay home, enjoy the air conditioning, and play games?"

And you know what? On such a hot day, and on vacation, Ning Meng wouldn't leave the house at all if the relationship wasn't close enough.

She pulled out a tissue to wipe the sweat from her face, preparing to make a call to check on Meng Bai's health, especially his brain.

Before the fight even started, Meng Bai and a girl in a white dress who looked taller than him appeared in their line of sight.

Ning Meng didn't go downstairs yesterday, so she didn't see what Su Xintang looked like; she only saw Su Xintang wearing a helmet.

Now, upon seeing her from afar, her eyes lit up instantly: Holy crap, there's a beauty! Lao Meng, move aside, let me have her!

"Meng Bai, over here!"

Meng Bai was already looking for her with his phone in hand when he looked in the direction of the sound and saw Ning Meng carrying a sword and running towards him.

The bag behind her swung back and forth, making her sway and feel like she was about to fall.

"Don't run." Meng Bai hurriedly stepped forward, wanting to help her.

But after this woman ran over, she bypassed Meng Bai and went straight to Su Xintang, excitedly asking, "You're Meng Bai's girlfriend?"

Su Xintang was taken aback by the question. She first glanced at Meng Bai, then nodded and made an "Uh~" sound, which was taken as an admission.

Meng Bai then stepped forward and introduced, "I forgot to tell you, her name is Su Xintang."

"Su Xin Tang?" No wonder Ning Meng and Meng Bai get along so well; those were the three words that came to her mind when she heard the name Su Xin Tang.

Of course, Miss Ning is even better than Meng Bai.

She smiled and introduced herself to Su Xintang, saying, "Isn't it a coincidence? My name is Xu Fuji, and our names are a perfect match."

"?" Su Xintang didn't understand. What Xu Fu Ji? And what did CP mean?
"Xu Fu Ji Crispy Candy, it's a candy brand here." Meng Bai explained through gritted teeth. Such a great joke, I hadn't even had a chance to say it yet, and you stole it from me?
"Let's go, let's go, we need to catch the daylight, it'll get dark soon." Meng Bai urged, taking Ning Meng's bag off and carrying it on his own back.

Only when he carried it on his back did he realize how heavy the bag was; it was incredibly heavy.

"What's in there? It's so heavy!"

Meng Bai really couldn't understand how Ning Meng, with her petite frame, could carry such a heavy bag. Did she have two bags?
"Bottles and jars, and some other odds and ends..." Ning Meng started to say, but then couldn't continue.

Because she saw that while she was speaking, Meng Bai, that good-for-nothing, actually handed the bag to Su Xintang, and Su Xintang, without any hesitation, actually put the bag on her back.

"?" Ning Meng's eyes widened.

“She’s strong,” Meng Bai explained.

It's no different for Su Xintang to carry this bag than to carry air. There's really no need to play the gentlemanly game with her. We're going to climb the mountain to film a video later, so we can't waste our energy on unnecessary things.

When people are tired, they are prone to getting confused, so maintaining video quality is of utmost importance.

"Huh?" Ning Meng, "Are you speaking human language?"

“Really, she’s practiced martial arts since she was little.” Meng Bai said, taking the sword from Ning Meng’s hand and laughing, “Give this to me too. You’ve come to help, so it’s not good to let you get tired.”

After saying that, he handed the sword to Su Xintang.

“???” Ning Meng looked at Meng Bai, then at the sword that Su Xintang had taken.

suddenly,

She laughed silently.

However, little did she know that the surprise was yet to come.

　This book is a completely new attempt, and it took me a long time to find my footing. I hope everyone will support me. Thank you!
