Immersive Fast Wear: The Anti-Strike Manual of the Heartthrob

Chapter 283: A mortal woman who seeks wealth and glory instead of true love vs. a god who has experi

This is a gorgeously decorated houseboat with three floors on its long hull, and each floor has several rooms.

Just this one boat is more expensive than many three-story mansions, and it looks both grand and beautiful.

"This is……"

Shu Qiu hesitantly cast a questioning look at Zhu Qi.

Zhu Qi immediately stepped forward and led her to the pleasure boat.

"This is a painted boat that took several months to make with skilled craftsmen. It's also your birthday present. Do you like it?"

Like it?

Shu Qiu loves money and also loves to enjoy herself. The priceless and magnificent houseboat is of course among the things she likes.

"Let's go up, I have made other arrangements inside."

Zhu Qi judged her satisfaction from her expression, and breathed a sigh of relief, feeling more confident about the subsequent preparations.

As I stepped onto the pleasure boat and before I entered the room, I heard some vague voices.

Zhu Qi took Shu Qiu to open the rooms one by one.

The first room was filled with men and women, some holding the pipa, some playing the guzheng, and some playing the flute.

Everyone in it is a very famous local musician.

The harmonious cooperation brought about melodious and moving music, like lingering sound, lingering in Shu Qiu's ears for a long time, giving her the most wonderful listening experience.

In the second room, there are more than ten dancers wearing moon-colored silk skirts and graceful postures. Every wave of their sleeves and lift of their legs is an unforgettable and stunning scene.

The third room had fewer people inside, with only a square table and a man in a long gown holding a gavel, knocking on the tabletop and telling stories that were either thrilling or hilarious.

……

Walking from one floor to the last and opening each room, one will feel that it lives up to expectations.

Shu Qiu felt her whole body relax, and the corners of her lips kept rising. Now, she was looking forward to what the gift in the last room would be.

Zhu Qi saw Shu Qiu's anticipation, and his previous calmness disappeared completely, and he suddenly became nervous.

"Qiu...Aqiu, here, is... is... I have something to tell you today."

He put his hand on the door, and the usually decisive man kept his hand on the door for a long time, as if he was afraid to face the final result after opening the door.

Zhu Qi's long eyelashes were like dewdrops on leaves in the morning, trembling and shaky, nervous and inexplicably worried and frightened.

Shu Qiu didn't know what he was afraid to say to her. Thinking about his recent behavior and mood, she thought:

"Even if it's something that makes you angry, you can't get angry today."

She repeated this sentence several times in her mind and put her hand on the door, and the door that Zhu Qi was afraid of was pushed open.

"!!!"

Shu Qiu was stunned and couldn't believe what he saw.

The room was filled with large wooden boxes. The box in the front was opened, and the dazzling array of gold, silver and treasures seemed to be glowing in the sunlight, almost burning people's eyes.

In addition, there are several small wooden boxes on the round table next to it, some of which contain exquisite hair accessories.

Next to them was a pair of lively geese preening each other's feathers with their beaks.

Since Shu Qiu had opened this step for him, Zhu Qi no longer hesitated, walked in, took out a box and handed it to Shu Qiu.

"Ah Qiu, this contains my shop, real estate, and everything I have saved over the years."

"Give you all."

Shu Qiu didn't dare to catch the big pie filled with gold that fell from the sky out of nowhere.

She looked into Zhu Qi's eyes:

"What do you want to do?"

Zhu Qi's face was as sullen as a cooked shrimp. He took out a simple sachet from his waist and handed it to her.

"This one is for you, too."

"Ah Qiu, I like you, will you marry me?"

Shu Qiu stood there in a daze.

She remembered a custom in this dynasty that if unmarried men and women gave each other a sachet, it was a subtle expression of love.

If the gift is intentional, it is best if the sachet is embroidered by the woman herself, so most of the time, it is given by a woman to a man.

Unexpectedly, she received a sachet embroidered by Zhu Qi himself.

Shu Qiu was so surprised that he didn't speak for a long time.

It turned out that Zhu Qi had developed feelings for her at some point in time.

"When did you start thinking about this?"

Shu Qiu reviewed everything that had happened since the two met, but still didn't understand where this sudden change came from.

Zhu Qi had a focused expression and a pair of clear eyes, which was completely inconsistent with what he had done in the business world over the past seven years.

Perhaps, he has always been like this in front of Shu Qiu.

"I don't know when it was. I still remember the first time I met you, the first time I woke up after being in a coma, and the first time I saw you, I had an inexplicable premonition in my heart that you would definitely be the surprise in my life."

"Later, I stopped trusting everyone and told myself I wouldn't trust you. But as we got along, I couldn't help but get closer to you."

"Every moment I spend with you, I feel comfortable and cherish it."

"So, I think that love was probably accumulated bit by bit during every moment I spent with you. It was so silent that when I discovered it, it had already taken root in my heart and merged into one with me."

"Ah Qiu, are you willing?"

Zhu Qi finished expressing his inner feelings with nostalgia, and then became nervous again, waiting for the person in front of him to make a decision on life or death.

Shu Qiu couldn't help but fall into deep thought.

In the past few years, she and Zhu Qi got along as siblings, but deep down in her heart, she could never regard him as her own brother.

Shu Qiu remembered Zhu Qi's identity on the first day. In her opinion, no matter how the two of them were or how long they were together, he would eventually become a god who would leave the human world.

Having no desires and no demands is what has been recorded in books about immortals for thousands of years.

Shu Qiu understood this very well. Immortals have an infinite lifespan, and even the strongest emotions will be washed away by time.

I have only lived for more than twenty years. The memories of hatred and resentment in my childhood may still be there, but the emotion has become much lighter, not to mention the endless stream of immortals year after year.

Therefore, in Shu Qiu's mind, Zhu Qi is someone who will definitely leave, and his feelings for her will fade away sooner or later.

Even though she overheard the conversation between the two immortals about their plans, she had no intention of developing a different relationship with him.

But now, it was Zhu Qi who proposed this idea, so Shu Qiu couldn't help but think along the same lines.

Firstly, they are not real siblings, so the change of identity would not be considered unethical.

On the other hand, Zhu Qi was a god who came to experience disaster, and her life span was twenty-five years, which she remembered clearly in her mind.

Over the years, Shu Qiu has been with him almost every day, and the feelings that have developed between them are not fake.

But this fact also reminds her from time to time not to go too deep and to stay rational at all times.

Now, she was thinking rationally that if she agreed to get married and Zhu Qi passed away in the future, this identity would bring her not only sadness, but also perhaps many of the things she longed for.
