Quick Transmigration: Let Me Tell You, I'm a Social Anxiety Person

Searching by year was too slow, so Wen Ying selected two years with a large time span.

But when they arrived, the buildings they had imagined did not appear. The air around them was still cold, and under the dark sky, the endless reeds trembled in the wind.

The mechanical bird's location changed; somehow, it ran to a place farther away from the passage.

Wen Ying could feel that the bubbles on its body had disappeared, and it was now enveloped by another soft layer.

She had no way of knowing what the thing was, only that it should be relatively safe.

Wen Ying had a premonition that the location it was in was still not in their time, but she still wanted to go there in person to confirm it.

Having already walked too much, Wen Ying really didn't want to use her two legs anymore, so she set her sights on Qin Shu, who also had two legs like her.

She didn't need to say anything; she simply glanced at Qin Shu's legs, and he understood immediately, squatting down in front of her.

They could actually teleport there, but...

Wen Ying jumped onto his back decisively, hooking her arms around his neck, and Qin Shu stood up steadily.

Carrying her on my back, I walked in the direction she pointed.

"I knew it, two legs are just as good."

As he finished speaking, he raised the corner of his lips, then turned his face away, remembering that she couldn't see him.

“You smiled.” Wen Ying poked the corner of his mouth.

"Hmm." Qin Shu cupped her knees with his palms and lifted her up a little.

"You turned around on purpose so I could see your smile," Wen Ying said, quite rudely, revealing his true feelings.

“That’s right,” he admitted.

Given his honesty, Wen Ying leaned close to his head and revealed a secret of her own: "Actually, the first time we went out together, I wanted you to carry me on your back, but I was afraid of hurting you."

Qin Shu: "Are you still worried now?"

"Of course not, I find you to be very muscular." She patted his chest as she spoke.

"Yes, I'm not broken." Qin Shu let her do as she pleased, and as she withdrew her hand, he touched her fingertips with his lips. "So, there's no need to rush to use your own strength. I can still carry you a long way."

Wen Ying smiled.

The two continued walking forward, and soon, fine snowflakes began to fall from the sky again.

Wen Ying's coat had a hood, but she didn't want to reach out and pull it. Instead, she leaned her head against Qin Shu's neck, keeping him company in the snow as he got wet without a hood, and touched his ear.

"Are your ears cold? Let me warm them up for you."

It wasn't cold at all; in fact, when she touched it, the thin skin started to get hot, and Wen Ying pressed her cheek against it.

This position made it a little inconvenient to turn around and kiss her, so Qin Shu simply turned his head slightly, nuzzled his cheek affectionately against her, and continued walking forward with his back to her.

As expected, the mechanical bird was not from this era, and after several attempts, Wen Ying discovered that she could not take Qin Shu to its true location.

Wen Ying had a feeling that she was playing a puzzle game and had overlooked a subtle detail, which was why she was stuck at this stage.

Just as she was at her wit's end, a rustling sound suddenly came from the bushes not far away.

"Not an animal, but a person," Qin Shu's voice rang out.

Wen Ying immediately looked toward the bushes. Perhaps because they had noticed their presence, the people in the bushes deliberately quieted down, but one could still hear their suppressed sobs.

It was late at night, and in the desolate wilderness nearby, one could hear a child crying softly. The strange scene was hard not to think of a scene from a horror movie.

But Wen Ying wasn't afraid of ghosts, and besides, Qin Shu was by her side.

She walked towards the bushes, but before she could reach out her hand, Qin Shu blocked her way and reached out first to brush aside the dry grass.

Compared to them, the person hiding inside was clearly more terrified, his eyes wide as he met Wen Ying's gaze.

It was a young girl, holding a little girl who was crying in her arms. Both of them were dressed very thinly and were huddled together, shivering.

"Don't be afraid, I'm not a bad person." Wen Ying squatted down to be at eye level with the other person. "You're still out here in this cold weather, where are your parents?"

The slightly older girl glanced nervously at Qin Shu, then looked at her again, without answering.

Like Wen Ying, he had already squatted down, but his shoulders were still slightly higher than hers. When he was expressionless, his cold demeanor inevitably put pressure on the child.

Qin Shu had to move out of their sight and glance at Wen Ying, whose eyes were smiling.

He understood the meaning of her gaze; she was praising him, using the word "well-behaved," which was even stranger than "cute."

Qin Shu accepted this well, and during the time they lived in the passageway, she often looked at him with this kind of rewarding gaze to praise his "obedience".

The ring around Wen Ying's neck lit up, and in the light, she could see the clothes the two children were wearing: coarse cloth clothes with many messy patches.

Looking at their hairstyles again, she suddenly realized why they weren't answering her questions: she had used vocabulary that was too modern for the two children to understand.

Just as she was about to organize her thoughts, the slightly older girl, staring at the light around her neck, suddenly asked, "Sister, are you a fairy descended from heaven?"

Wen Ying paused for a moment, and the other person then looked at her with hopeful yet cautious eyes, tentatively asking if she could help find lost relatives.

Through the girl's pleading words, Wen Ying finally understood.

The world she lives in is in the midst of war.

These two children were originally villagers from a nearby village. Due to the war, most of the able-bodied men in the village were conscripted to serve as laborers. However, not long after, news came that the elderly would also be conscripted to fight.

The village was already left with only the elderly and children. If even the elderly were taken away, the children would really have no way to survive. Left with no other choice, the villagers had to flee the place.

But where should they go after leaving here?

For Wen Yinglu, finding the people was not a problem. She quickly found the group, brought the two children there, and gave them her coat to keep them warm.

The girl didn't take it immediately, firmly believing in Wen Ying's divine identity, but worried that she would get cold without her coat.

A warm coat was placed on her shoulders. Wen Ying took Qin Shu's hand and told her, "Don't worry, I'm not cold."

The girl kept turning back to look at Wen Ying, but her overly elaborate gesture of gratitude was rejected. Apart from glancing at Wen Ying a few more times, she didn't know how to repay her.

“Wu Heng, Wu Heng…”

A muffled shout drifted through the night; it was the voice of an old man.

Wen Ying seemed to sense something and looked toward the source of the sound.

The girl looked back at her again, responded from afar, and suddenly, whether driven by impulse or courage, she shouted, "Sister, this is my name!"

Wen Ying looked at her in astonishment.

She thought she had discovered the mystery that had kept her stuck in place, preventing her from moving forward.

Wen Ying and Qin Shu stayed in this world for a while longer.

She told Wu Heng the story of the fish pearl, took her to visit the passages, and taught her to activate the ancient power hidden in her body, to reconnect with the underwater world, and to transform into a fish tail that could adapt to underwater life.

Wu Heng was very smart. No matter what Wen Ying taught her, she learned it very quickly. She was also very brave. When she was underwater, she only stared blankly at the fish tail that suddenly grew from her lower body for a few seconds before quickly accepting the change.

Most water flows eventually into the ocean, and through channels, it can also reach the sea.

The wars on land will not affect the sea; the other world underwater will become a peaceful and tranquil paradise.

When Wen Ying finished speaking, the girl in front of her looked hesitant.

She gestured for the other person to speak, and Wu Heng said, "Sister, you can..."

He paused halfway through his sentence.

Under the cool moonlight, the small boat they had built together floated on the shimmering sea.

"I'm sorry, I can't change the course of history."

Wen Ying could not end the war; she could only offer assistance within the limits she could.

Wu Heng gripped the oar tightly, and the small boat steered back to the shore. She asked, "Then, sister, may I tell them your name?"

Wen Ying shook her head; she could see that Wu Heng was trying hard to hide the disappointment in his expression.

In the past few days, neither she nor Qin Shu have appeared in front of anyone else. The only people who know of their existence are Wu Heng and that young girl.

Wu Heng is only twelve years old this year; she is still a child who hasn't grown up.

"All you need to do is pass on your name." Wen Ying handed her the supplies sent by the system.

Wu Heng didn't ask any more questions, accepted the gift with both hands, and nodded earnestly.

They disembarked, and Wenying helped her dry her slightly damp clothes and hair before taking her back to where her relatives were.

Qin Shu took her hand, and she tried to open the space-time rift as usual.

The gap opened smoothly, and the mechanical bird rolled back, landing precisely in Wen Ying's hand.

Wen Ying observed its condition and felt that it looked somewhat listless and had stopped chirping.

She lifted it by its wing and shook it. The mechanical bird weakly glanced at her with its eyes, then at Qin Shu, before kicking its legs and losing consciousness.

Wen Ying looked at Wu Heng from afar.

She knew perfectly well that the help she could offer had come to an end.

The road ahead will be paved by Wu Heng herself, even though she is still so young.

But she believed in her.

-

The mechanical bird's behavior was too abnormal, so they returned overnight and took it back to the laboratory for a detailed examination.

The data showed that it was in excellent health. Wen Ying counted carefully and found that it hadn't lost a single feather.

Wen Ying felt a little relieved. She had thought its weak state would last a long time, and she was prepared to take it with her wherever she went and take care of it. However, after watching a few games at home, the mechanical bird quickly regained its excitement.

Qin Shu was forced to participate in the game at the strong insistence of the mechanical bird.

As the commander of the Eternal Day Fleet, he was surprisingly bad at playing games. He repeatedly lost in 1v1 matches against Wen Ying and was mercilessly mocked by the mechanical bird.

It stood on the table, raised one paw, and made a "coo coo coo" sound that was full of arrogance, meaning "I can play better with my feet than you".

Then it turned to Wen Ying and spread one of its wings.

After all, Wen Ying's rapid progress was due to its guidance.

"You're the bird that's best at playing games in the whole universe." Wen Ying praised it as always, her eyes crinkling as she gave it a high five. "Yes, my best friend."

After the 1v1 match ended, it was time for the mechanical bird's individual bird skill demonstration match, which Wen Ying and Qin Shu watched together.

Just two minutes into the game, Qin Shu received a phone call from the principal of the military academy. He didn't get up to answer it; he remained seated.

He knew why the other party had called. With the school anniversary celebration approaching, Qin Shu, as an outstanding graduate, had received an invitation long ago, but because it coincided with his honeymoon, he did not plan to participate.

Now that the principal has heard the news of his return to Eternal Nova, he has personally contacted him and extended a formal invitation.
