The meeting ended successfully, and it did not leave any impact on Liyue Harbor. It was the same as when it came, and it was the same when it left, except that there were two more signatures in the book in his hand.

Of course Liu Hui also got his signature, on the first page of the now only one volume of "If I Could Start Over Again". When he and Su Ping looked at each other, they smiled.

She and he, are readers and authors; a single encounter is enough for them.

After the show, Su Ping and Nan Zhangsheng removed the powder from their faces, washed their faces, and left through the exit on the side of the park.

The idea was proposed by Nan Zhangsheng, and the route was also chosen by Nan Zhangsheng. Su Ping felt helpless when he saw his sneaky and inquiring look.

Nan Zhangsheng shrank his head, looked into the distance, and then waved to the side, "Brother Su, hurry up, let's go!"

"Is this really necessary?" Su Ping asked with a raised eyebrow.

But Nan Zhangsheng turned his head and looked at him, nodding his head heavily and said, "It is necessary, very necessary. This is the ordeal that must be experienced after every meet-and-greet. You need to be careful, careful, and careful again!"

Su Ping had no choice but to answer him, and then walked ahead, secretly wondering whether he should reveal his identity.

He was sure that the other party still had good intentions, but he had no idea whether this would still be the case after his identity was revealed, or whether it would ever be the case again.

"That's a bit risky. What if my rebirth is some experiment set up by the other party, or we are both props for some kind of experiment..."

Su Ping murmured in his heart. Before he actually came to Teyvat, he didn't believe that anyone in the world could perform such a horrible and bizarre experiment.

But there are gods in the sky in this world. The dead will turn into ghosts, and some people can even obtain the Eye of God to drive the elemental force.

In this world, Su Ping believed that if someone wanted to, it would not be impossible. But if there really was someone who wanted to, why would they do it, and why would it be him?

Fear comes from the unknown and uncertainty. Su Ping didn't dare to gamble on this possibility, so he chose to conceal it again. Perhaps this was good for both of them.

Before you say it, you may be a friend, but after you say it, your friend may be an enemy, or there may be an enemy in the dark. There are dangers everywhere and it is difficult to guard against hidden arrows.

Just after Su Ping was sure that the secret had been concealed, Nan Zhangsheng screamed and ran away. Following behind him, more than ten figures could be seen, all of them women.

Whether they were middle-aged women with waists as thin as tree trunks or young women with waists as slender as willows, they all had only one target, the extremely handsome Nan Zhangsheng.

"Little man, don't run!"

"Little applause, I have a daughter here, let me introduce her to you, come on, don't run away!"

Nan Zhangsheng turned around and ran past Su Ping with an anxious look on his face. Su Ping, who was standing between the two sides, had a calm expression and resolutely chose to... step aside.

With his retreat, there were no more obstacles on the already quiet road. The group of women chased Nan Zhangsheng madly, leaving only a young man standing on the side of the road, not knowing whether to laugh or cry.

"I hope you're okay." Su Ping pulled the corners of his mouth, still unable to hold back his smile, and then he ran back to the commercial street in the direction they had just gone.

The sun was heading west and it was past noon. Su Ping was hungry and wanted to go back to eat, so he walked faster.

In the grocery store, the four women sat on the first floor to rest after eating. The two men, Bai Shi Bai Xiao, each took a book and spoke eloquently like storytellers.

"It is said that after Su Bin was taken out, all he encountered and heard were scenes he had never seen before. There were wide streets and tall buildings that seemed to block out the sun. Everything was different from the past..."

Bai Shi read with ups and downs, as if she was a character in the book. After experiencing hardships, the little country bumpkin sees the big world that people talk about, and feels surprised and confused.

But Bai Xiao is different. She seems to have installed a mirror behind the characters in the book, leading everyone to follow her perspective, but without being hindered by this perspective, she can see the overall situation.

There are two methods. The two women were half listening and half joking. They couldn't say which one was better. They were just having fun anyway, so they just did whatever they wanted.

Their playfulness came to an abrupt end only when someone stepped into the store. However, after they saw that the person was a teenager, they sat back down.

"Su Ping, Su Ping, come here quickly. I was just talking about your book. You can listen to it and give me some advice!" Bai Shi waved his hand and said with a smile.

Su Ping smiled and said, "If it were normal times, I would be happy to help you, but now I have nothing to offer, so I'm afraid I can't give you any good advice!"

"That's okay. I'll go cook some noodles for you." Bai Shi jumped up and ran upstairs in two steps. He disappeared in an instant.

It was no use for Su Ping to call her back.

Ningguang looked at the young man and said slowly, "Bai Shi is like this. Once she wants to do something, nothing can stop her. Since she said she wants to cook noodles, you just need to rest and wait for the food."

Bai Wen also nodded slightly, then stood up and said, "There's a plate of uncut braised meat upstairs. I'll go cut it for you."

Then, the older sister next door, who didn't participate in the conversations but was sensitive enough to know everything about the two girls' thoughts, walked quickly upstairs.

Su Ping sat down, scratched his head, and asked in confusion: "Why do you seem to be a little...too accommodating to me today?"

"You'll get used to it." Ningguang covered her mouth and yawned away. Then, her eyes that seemed to contain amorous feelings looked at the young man again and said lightly, "Everyone would feel a little uncomfortable if there was one less person eating in the shop."

Su Ping listened to the slightly resentful tone and promised to come back for dinner as much as possible in the future.

Ningguang chuckled, "I'm not blaming you. I'm just saying that when you're not around, the two girls are always distracted..."

"I didn't!" Bai Xiao clasped his hands in front of his slightly heaving body and denied it with a pout.

Ningguang closed her eyes slightly and said, "What the woman says doesn't exist must exist."

Bai Xiao turned around and stared at the woman, then left quickly with a sullen look on her face. She couldn't afford to offend the boss. Besides, she was about the same as Bai Shi in terms of talking skills, but she had basically no chance of winning against the other two or even three.

As a result, the only two shop owners left sitting there were Su Ping and Ningguang. Once the others left, they were alone, and they could do anything. However, these two were money-conscious people, and no one cared unless their bottom line was touched.

After a short silence, Su Ping was the first to ask, "After I left, they wouldn't really be...slacking off in the morning, right?"

"I can't say I'm lazy, but my dexterity has definitely declined a bit, so Boss Su, do you have anything to explain?" Ningguang didn't know whether she was joking or serious, as if she was treating her own daughter as if someone had abducted her.

Although she seemed to be only one year older than the youngest Bai Shi and the same age as the second oldest Bai Xiao, she was mature enough to always regard the two girls as younger sisters who were a few years older than herself.

Su Ping spread his hands and said calmly: "I'm only thirteen years old."

"Thirteen is enough. I heard about a case before where a thirteen-year-old committed a crime..."

"I don't!"

"Knowing you don't have it, why are you so nervous?"

“I’m afraid of having my reputation ruined.”

“There’s no one else here.”

"Walls have ears."

"I don't know. Anyway, the shop has good sound insulation, but the house outside doesn't have such an effect."

"I...you...we..."

Su Ping really didn't want to dwell on this, so he simply pretended to be defeated and just fooled the opponent. After all, the opponent was just joking.

Ningguang saw him like this, so she decided to stop and talked about what happened today, "How was the meeting?"

"Fortunately, nothing serious happened." Su Ping thought about the reporter and said in a deep voice, "It's just that I almost got scolded."

“Almost? That’s good.” Ningguang breathed a sigh of relief, leaned back in her chair, closed her eyes, and waved her hand, saying, “The noodles should be almost ready. Go eat. Will you be there this afternoon?”

"I have nothing to do in the afternoon. I'll just watch in the shop." Su Ping walked up the stairs, turned around and answered, then went back upstairs.

Ningguang smiled calmly and murmured in a low voice: "He is still a child after all. No matter how calm he appears, he can easily lose his composure. Hmm... he needs more practice!"

Su Ping, who had no idea that he was being labeled as not steady enough, was eating noodles cooked by the girl, and the braised meat that the girl had cut, which filled half a plate.

Seeing that this piece of meat didn't look like leftover meat, Su Ping asked, "Sister Bai Wen, you didn't cut up the last big piece you braised last night, did you?"

"Yes, you are still in the period of growing up, you can't eat less or eat poorly. Of course, I won't put the braised meat back into the pot after it is cut. You can eat it all." Bai Wen smiled faintly.

Su Ping looked at the braised meat that was almost the same size as his head, thought for a moment, and nodded.

Of course he can finish all the food. As a young man who is busy every day and gets up early and goes to bed late, it is impossible for him to have a bad appetite.

However, after finishing the meal, Su Ping was still obviously a little full. He hadn't eaten so much in a long time, so he volunteered to wash the dishes and went to his shop.

After a busy afternoon and dinner, the boy returned to his room, ready to put pen to paper.

Because he has to fulfill his words, and since he has made a promise, he can't treat it as nonsense.

While people in the house downstairs are working hard, people upstairs are laughing and chatting.

Ningguang closed the door and called the three people together. The four of them sat in one of the rooms and talked about some private matters between women.

"Bai Xiao, Bai Shi, you two are both capable men under my command. You are diligent and hardworking..."

Ningguang's words, which seemed to indicate she was going to fire them, made the two of them panic, and even Baiwen, who was standing aside from the matter, was frightened.

But then, Ningguang changed the subject with an unusual look on her face, "But you two like the same person, which makes me very distressed!"

“Ah?” Bai Shi Bai Xiao looked at each other in bewilderment, then looked at Bai Wen who had a strange look on his face, and finally looked at Ning Guang, with their mouths wide open: “Ah!”

Ningguang looked at their intense reactions and suddenly felt a little sorry for them. She was about to persuade them to avoid more trouble in the future, but she was still a step too late.
