My supermarket is connected to all worlds, and I've won so much money handing it over to the st

"Hey Xiaoyan, you've just arrived and don't have any daily necessities yet. Aunt Qin and I will go shopping together to help you get some. Please don't refuse our kindness."

"Yes, yes, we love helping the kids with these things. Xixi's needs a new one too, and it's getting dark, so we'll head over now. Relax, settle in, and enjoy life."

Aunt Qin immediately followed. After the three of them left, Chu Feng and Chen Yu also stood up and left together, leaving Gu Xixi and Shen Qingyan alone.

"Xixi, you two chat, we have things to do too, so we'll be going now."

"Shen Qingyan, I'll go find a few professors to help you come up with a solution."

As the last word fell, the two of them walked out the door. Gu Xixi's eyes were red, but she didn't know what to say.

Her words of comfort were well-reasoned and logical, but she knew perfectly well that the degree of amnesia the system described was probably different from what they imagined.

The two looked at each other, and Shen Qingyan's eyes reddened slightly. "Xixi, I'm sorry."

"Why are you saying sorry? You haven't done anything to wrong me." Gu Xixi understood what he meant. She took a deep breath, stood up, and sat down next to him, extending her hand with her palm facing up.

“Shen Qingyan, I’ve waited a long time, and you’ve waited a long time too. You understand my feelings, and I understand yours…”

Gu Xixi paused briefly, trying to catch her breath as she choked up, "I don't want to waste any more time. Just cherish the present. Even if you get pulled into a dungeon tomorrow... oops, you'll be dragged in later..."

Even if you really can't come back... I only care about having had it. Isn't having it a result? In my opinion, having it is more important than the so-called end. What do you think?

Shen Qingyan always thought of her, assuming that she was only confessing when she wanted to achieve the perfect moment, the perfect version of herself. But there is no such thing as a perfect moment in the world.

Waiting only wastes time.

“Xixi, I…” Shen Qingyan was stunned and moved. He looked at Gu Xixi’s palm and saw that his beloved was right there. He raised his hand and covered her palm firmly and gently.

Their hands clasped tightly together, and a single tear fell from each of them, landing on their clasped palms.

"Xixi, what if something happens to me in the future..."

"If you were to die and never come back, I'll reluctantly offer a three-day memorial service for you, considering you've waited for me for over a thousand years. How about that, are you at ease now?" Gu Xixi answered first, her eyes gradually filled with self-controlled joy and smugness.

She pretended.

"Okay, three days it is. You don't need to take my waiting time to heart or let it be a burden. It's my choice and has nothing to do with you. I always hope that you live a happy and fulfilling life."

Shen Qingyan also forcibly changed his facial expression. He suddenly leaned closer to Gu Xixi and pulled her into his arms, but only one sentence kept replaying in his mind, a sentence completely different from what he said: "I can't bear to part with... Xixi."

Gu Xixi lowered her eyes and reduced her strength. She had already experienced such a tall, warm, living person turning into a cold, small ceramic jar...

If it happened again, and not even a speck of dust remained... Gu Xixi dared not think about it, nor could she accept it... But she would not give up, and she would definitely find a suitable solution.

She'll have to ask after the system update is complete.

Both of them tried their best to calm down and regain their composure. Only then did Gu Xixi break free and say, "This is your first time in my world. Let me show you around the house today so you can get acquainted with it."

"There are still several days before my next time travel mission. In these few days, I will take you to other places to get familiar with them and have some fun. After all, this world is where you will live for the rest of your life."

"Alright, then I'll trouble Miss Xixi." Shen Qingyan stood up and pulled Gu Xixi along with him. Gu Xixi didn't let go, and Shen Qingyan didn't let go either.

Gu Xixi walked ahead, facing forward, and began to chatter on and on, "Is this house big or not? In our world, this is a mansion, only the rich and powerful can live in it. My old house was only the size of the floor above a supermarket. Thanks to you, I'm considered a rich person now, so you can live here and use it without worry."

"By the way, you still have a lot of gold ingots you left with me, and the money left over from the initial transaction. You're quite wealthy in our world now, aren't you happy?"

Shen Qingyan smiled brightly, her expression a mixture of helplessness and doting affection, and drew out the last syllable of her reply, "Happy~!"

Every day I spend with you is a happy one, Shen Qingyan added in his heart. Today is the happiest day of his lives.

"Ta-da! Look, isn't our garden huge? Although our landscaping is quite good, it still can't compare to your hometown... That pavilion and open space is where I usually practice martial arts outdoors... The other professors live in that building next door."

"You can freely move around on this large grassland, take photos, play golf, do yoga, practice martial arts... Do you feel uncomfortable anywhere? Are you getting used to it?"

"It's very comfortable and I'm used to it." Shen Qingyan's eyes were only on Gu Xixi. He had seen all of this before, when he was a system, through Gu Xixi's eyes.

Now, when Xixi guides him to see things this way, it's a completely different perspective—a vision that abandons boundless loneliness and is filled with caution and hope.

"We've finished looking around outside, let's go visit the house. Shen Qingyan, did you grow taller in the system? You seem so much taller. You used to be at most 1.8 meters tall, but something seems off about you now."

Gu Xixi turned back and stood next to Shen Qingyan to compare their heights. She remembered that when she saved him before, her head was a head taller than his shoulder, but now her head was completely buried in his chest.

After all, she's almost 1.7 meters tall even with shoes on... Even if he was squatting down a bit because he was weak at the time...

"Hmm, I guess so, but I'm not sure." Shen Qingyan lowered his head, his forehead lightly bumping against Gu Xixi's, before quickly pulling away. "Let's go, let's continue introducing the house."

Gu Xixi's cheeks flushed slightly as she walked briskly ahead.

……

Two hours later, Mr. Gu, Mrs. Gu, and Aunt Qin returned laden with their purchases. They moved the items into the guest room opposite Gu Xixi's, and Mr. Gu immediately started to urge them to leave.

"You all go out. The rest of you can come and teach Xiaoyan. Give us some time alone, okay? I still have so much to say to Xiaoyan."

"Come on, come on, Xixi, come here, Mom has something to say to you too." Gu's mother pulled Gu Xixi away and turned to go into Gu Xixi's room.

The mother and daughter had just sat down on the sofa when Gu Xixi heard a notification sound: [Ding, system update complete. Due to the expiration of the previous system administrator's term, you have been automatically assigned a new system administrator, code 99712138. You can set a nickname.]

Gu Xixi: !!
