Do you really think you can get me with just a banana?

The two disciples looked at each other, then bowed politely and said, "Fellow Daoist, please follow me to the front hall and wait for a while. I will go and see if the young lady is awake." Guan Shanyu nodded hurriedly to express his gratitude, then followed them into the Yuchen Palace.

At this time, the morning light was just beginning to shine, and it was still early. Shortly after the Chen hour, Yuchen Palace was completely quiet. Only a few early-rising disciples were quietly studying. The corridors and courtyards were deserted. Guan Shanyu sighed inwardly. He had heard that the life in Yuchen Palace was leisurely. Compared to Tianxuan's daily routine of sleeping at 11:00 and waking at 12:00, it was a paradise on earth. No wonder Xu Fengyu didn't want to come back.

However, Guan Shanyu was not in the mood to think about the differences between Tianxuan and Yuchen Palace. He sat in the hall, drinking cup after cup of fragrant tea. As time approached the hour of Si, his mood became more and more complicated.

I hope Li Suyin will come over soon, but I am also afraid... that she will really come over.

Guan Shanyu sat in his seat and shook his legs for a long time. He saw the sun rising higher outside, but Li Suyin did not come. Just when he thought that Li Suyin either did not understand the meaning of the note and did not want to come, or was fast asleep, a "ding-ling-dang" sound suddenly came from outside the house.

Guan Shanyu looked up when he heard the voice, and heard someone say from outside, "Miss, please run slower."

"Stop, don't follow me!"

Guan Shanyu suddenly looked up, his gaze passing through the doorway of the main hall. He saw a woman hurried in. It was Li Suyin. Her clothes were slightly disheveled, and the pearl hairpins in her hair were all over the place, clearly having just gotten out of bed. Guan Shanyu's mouth twitched unconsciously, thinking that the "ding-ling-clang" noise just now was probably caused by her.

He quickly adjusted his expression, looking calm, and stood up to greet Li Suyin as she entered. "I am Guan Shanyu, a disciple of Tianxuan. Nice to meet you, Li..."

"You wrote this?!"

Before he could finish his words, Li Suyin interrupted him, holding the note that Guan Shanyu had handed to her earlier tightly in her hand, and asked anxiously.

Guan Shanyu stared at the paper he had written, swallowed his saliva, and answered honestly, "I wrote it..."

Li Suyin's eyes suddenly widened, her face full of surprise and excitement, and she asked, "Then can you tell me again what it says?"

Guan Shanyu was silent for a moment, then noticed the look of disbelief on Li Suyin's face. He spoke cautiously, "...Odd things change, but even things don't."

As soon as the words fell, Li Suyin's eyes seemed to light up instantly, and the muscles on her face trembled slightly with excitement. She responded with rapid breathing: "Look at the quadrant of the symbol?!"

Guan Shanyu's eyes flushed slightly, and he bit his lips tightly, trying to control his body, which was out of control due to excitement. He took a few deep breaths to suppress his screaming desire. The two of them looked at each other with scorching eyes, but neither of them approached easily until Guan Shanyu slowly said, "Imperial Palace Liquor?"

Li Suyin's eyes flushed red, and she grinned unconsciously. She took a step closer to him and replied, "One hundred and eighty per cup?"

Guan Shanyu's eyes instantly moistened. He covered his mouth tightly, afraid that he would cry out loud, and slowly approached Li Suyin. Li Suyin also sobbed, and continued to ask with a trembling mouth: "How...how are you?"

Guan Shanyu wiped his tears and choked back his response: "Fine, thank you, and you?"

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Suyin could no longer hold back her tears. She ran towards Guan Shanyu and threw herself into his arms.

Guan Shanyu caught her steadily, and they both knelt on the ground, hugged each other tightly, burst into tears, and howled, "Family!"

Outside the door, Li Suyin's maids and nannies watched the scene from afar. They saw the two men, who had been having a pleasant conversation, suddenly embraced each other in the blink of an eye. They jumped up and down anxiously, saying, "Oh my! The young lady pounced on the handsome boy again when she saw him. This is really immoral!"

However, the two people in the hall were completely immersed in the mixed feelings of sadness and joy of reunion, and were completely unaware that there were several onlookers standing outside watching from afar. They cried heart-wrenchingly and howled in the hall, until the maids and nannies could no longer bear it and were about to step forward to persuade them, the two of them reluctantly separated in tears.

Seeing this, the maids and nannies dared not step forward.

Guan Shanyu rubbed his red eyes and saw Li Suyin crying loudly, tears and snot mixed together, and her makeup was all smudged. He said with some disgust: "Hey - why are you crying so ugly?"

After hearing this, Li Suyin wiped her face and retorted: "You don't look that good when you cry, okay?"

They both wiped their tears, and seeing the disheveled person in front of them, they laughed again, and cried while laughing. After a while, Li Suyin became serious, looked at Guan Shanyu and asked: "How did you recognize me?"

Guan Shanyu replied, "The last time I came to your place, weren't you looking for your brother in the main hall? I heard you say 'shit' from a distance. The more I thought about it, the more I thought it was wrong. So I decided to try my luck today."

Li Suyin slapped her head and said, "Damn, it's a good thing I haven't been able to change this catchphrase after all these years."

Guan Shanyu laughed out loud and said, "Yeah, I always thought I was the only unlucky one. What era did you travel from?"

Li Suyin put away her smile, curled up her legs and hugged herself: "October 2024, what about you?"

Guan Shanyu asked, "I'm a month behind you. How long have you been here? Did you come here by yourself? Did you bring the system with you when you came?"

Li Suyin was amused by his "household registration"-style questions and answered them one by one: "I have been in this world for ten years. When I came here, this Li Suyin was only six years old. I don't know if there are other travelers. Anyway, in all these years, you are the only traveler I have seen. But you mentioned the system. Why? Did you have a system when you came here?"

Guan Shanyu was surprised and said, "You're here so early, that's impressive! I've only been here for over a year, but my system hasn't been working for the past six months due to network fluctuations. What about yours? What's your system task?"

Li Suyin looked confused and said, "It seems like they suddenly gave me some kind of mission six months ago, asking me to fix the plot? But I haven't even finished reading the book, so how would I know how to fix it? My system never appeared again anyway. But it doesn't matter. I've only spoken to it four times in the past ten years."

Guan Shanyu was even more surprised: "Only four times? Didn't you have a mission before? If you didn't have a mission, how did you travel to this novel?"

Li Suyin shook her head and replied, "No mission. I died unexpectedly in the real world, and then they said I made a great contribution to the novel, so they let me come here to experience life."

Guan Shanyu looked puzzled. "You made a great contribution to this novel? What contribution did you make?"

After all, his novel didn't even make it into the list, so no one read it. Where did the fans come from to contribute to it? Could it be that they contributed it to the external website?

Li Suyin nodded confidently and said, "Of course. You don't know, but I single-handedly pushed this novel's popularity to the top 1,000."

Guan Shanyu narrowed his eyes and stared at the person in front of him. Suddenly, he thought of something and slowly said, "Japanese girl Baka-chan?"

Li Suyin's eyes lit up instantly, and she asked in surprise, "Have you heard of my story? Are you also a reader of this book?"

After Guan Shanyu heard what she said, he suddenly pounced on her, grabbed her neck, and cursed fiercely with gnashing teeth: "My book friend, your mother! You built more than a hundred floors to scold me! If it weren't for you, I wouldn't have traveled here!!!"

Li Suyin was startled and recognized the person opposite her, but was pushed to the ground by Guan Shanyu. Her throat was tightly grasped and she couldn't speak. She was gasping for breath.

She desperately slapped Guan Shanyu's hands, wanting him to let go, but Guan Shanyu was so angry that he didn't pay any attention to her pleas for mercy. He just kept yelling in grievance: "Do you know how much I have suffered here?"

The maids and nannies outside the door had breathed a sigh of relief to see their young lady and the young man separated. But before they could even catch their breath, they saw the young man suddenly pounce on their young lady. They were so frightened that they thought the two were about to do something unspeakable in broad daylight, and they rushed forward to separate them. But when they got closer, they found that the young lady's neck was being strangled. They were so frightened that they shouted as they tried to separate them, "Murder, murder!"

Guan Shanyu was awakened by the sudden scream, and instantly calmed down, quickly letting go of Li Suyin. But he was immediately pushed to the ground by a group of maids, and the maids quickly surrounded Li Suyin to protect her, fearing that Guan Shanyu would come forward and hurt their young lady again.

At this moment, the disciples outside heard the noise and rushed over. Seeing this, Guan Shanyu quickly cast a look at Li Suyin for help.

Li Suyin covered the marks on her neck, coughed a few times, and quickly waved her hand, saying, "It's okay, it's okay. All of you, back off. We're just playing around! What are you panicking about?"

The disciples who had just entered the hall were frozen in their tracks by Li Suyin's words, standing there hesitantly. The maids looked at her in shock and said, "Miss, he was about to strangle you just now, why are you still..."

"Stop talking!" Li Suyin interrupted her, saying, "I told you it was just a small quarrel. Get out of here right now. We still have something very important to discuss."

The maids and nannies looked at each other in disbelief, looking at Li Suyin, as if trying to confirm whether she was telling the truth. Seeing that they were still unwilling to leave, Li Suyin frowned and threw her handkerchief. Everyone saw that this action was a sign of her usual outburst, so they only glanced at Guan Shanyu warily again, not daring to disobey Li Suyin's orders. They hesitantly retreated to the door and continued to observe them from a distance.

Li Suyin rolled her eyes, rubbed the painful marks on her neck, looked at Guan Shanyu with some complaints, and said: "You really pinched me, it hurts so much."

Guan Shanyu clasped his fist towards her apologetically, and replied awkwardly: "Excuse me, I've been having too many worries lately, and I couldn't control them all at once."

Li Suyin rubbed her neck and glanced at Guan Shanyu's face for a few seconds, then suddenly burst out laughing. Guan Shanyu turned his head and glanced at her, wondering, "What are you laughing at?"

Li Suyin shook her head and curled her lips, saying, "I didn't expect you to be the author of 'The Immortal Path Against the Sky'. I always thought the author was a divorced middle-aged woman."

Guan Shanyu frowned, looked at her with displeasure, and said, "Who are you talking about middle-aged women?"

Li Suyin explained with a smile, "Otherwise... how could I write such a fussy plot? But don't be angry, you really entertained me when you wrote this. Hey, by the way, is the skin of Guan Shanyu you're wearing now your original appearance, or the one in the novel?"

Guan Shanyu rolled his eyes and said, "Of course it's my own appearance. The original novel doesn't describe his appearance at all, okay? You've built so many stories to scold me, but you didn't even read the novel carefully. Damn it."

Li Suyin laughed out loud and said, "Don't be angry about what happened in your previous life. If you don't like staying in Tianxuan, how about I introduce you to Yuchen Palace? We have a lot of money here, and there's not much free time. You can live like an old lady every day."

Guan Shanyu glanced at her and asked, "Really?"

Li Suyin replied: "Of course, I don't lie."

Guan Shanyu snorted and turned his head away. Li Suyin looked at him carefully again and said in amazement, "I didn't expect you to be so handsome in person. What kind of novels do you write? You can make a fortune by doing live broadcasts."

Guan Shanyu twitched the corner of his mouth and said, "Not interested."

Li Suyin stood up and walked to Guan Shanyu's side, intending to pull him up, but Guan Shanyu glanced at her, then stood up on his own, walked to a chair and sat down. Li Suyin saw that he didn't know how to tease her, so she patted the dust off her hands and sat down beside him. Seeing that Guan Shanyu still had a proud expression on his face, she changed the subject and said, "But my appearance is not my own anymore, but that's okay. Li Suyin is a hundred times more beautiful than me. You don't know how happy I am when I wake up and look in the mirror every day."

Guan Shanyu was now in a good mood, with the corners of his mouth raised, pretending to be nonchalant and said: "That's right, don't you even look at who wrote it."

Li Suyin burst out laughing. Seeing that Guan Shanyu was about to glare at her again, she quickly begged for mercy, "Okay, okay, let's move on. Aren't we all starting a new life? Why bring up the past? Besides, don't you have anything else to do today besides come to me to get acquainted?"

Guan Shanyu finally turned to look at her and replied, "Yes, I wanted to ask if you, too, are a time traveler, and if you brought any mission with you."

For example, replace Yan Ruchen.
