Quick Transmigration: The Foolish Beauty Saves the World
Chapter 61 I Want to Be a Good Dad (7)
That study was where Jiang Yuanqi taught him when he was young.
Teach him how to be an obedient child, how to keep his claws hidden, and how to enjoy life.
Although Jiang Zichu didn't like those things.
Later, this study became his only pastime when he was alone.
He hates the study.
This place holds both the precious time he spent with his son Jiang Yuanqi, and a great deal of his loneliness.
He didn't enter his study again that year.
But now, his heart was miraculously warmed by the light shining from the study.
This study, which he loathed, now seemed to possess some kind of magic, drawing him there.
He lifted his leg and walked toward the study, which he hadn't been to in a long time.
He had never felt the distance between the living room and the study was so far, so far that he began to doubt the authenticity of the light.
It wasn't until I reached the door of the study that I saw the camping lamp on the table.
Jiang Zichu didn't doubt where the camping light came from. When he was little, Jiang Yuanqi had taken him camping on the island.
These things were all piled up in the storage room, just like the portable gas stove, but he was too lazy to look at them.
But his stepfather had obviously been to the storage room, otherwise he wouldn't have found that strange shirt from earlier that day.
A flicker of joy welled up inside Jiang Zichu, but he suppressed it, adopting an impatient demeanor, and asked into the study:
"Who allowed you to come in?"
No one responded.
There wasn't even an echo.
Jiang Zichu's heart tightened again. He quickly walked in and saw his handsome stepfather leaning against the desk, not moving.
Jiang Zichu unconsciously slowed her pace and walked to her stepfather's side.
He squatted down, heard his stepfather's even breathing, and suddenly breathed a sigh of relief, letting out a muffled laugh.
After laughing, he felt confused and lightly slapped himself. He then sat down on the ground like the handsome young father.
The dim light enveloped the two of them, giving Jiang Zichu a long-lost sense of security.
Why would such a handsome young father get involved with Jiang Yuanqi?
Jiang Zichu traced the profile of her handsome stepfather with her finger.
Actually, it's not so bad that they've gotten involved; this way, the two of them can be trapped here for the rest of their lives.
The person in front of him trembled, and Jiang Zichu quickly composed himself and stood up.
"woke up?"
Jingli rubbed her eyes, looked up at the source of the sound, and saw Jiang Zichu's tense jaw.
He tried to stand up, but his limbs were stiff from sleeping and he couldn't stand steadily. Just as he was about to fall, Jiang Zichu caught him.
"Thanks……"
"You're throwing yourself into my arms again, Daddy. Are you still saying you're not trying to seduce me?"
The word "thank you" remained stuck in Jingli's throat; she didn't know whether to say it or not.
He pushed Jiang Zichu away: "It's getting dark."
“Hmm,” Jiang Zichu wasn’t annoyed, and moved closer to Jingli again, “Are you implying something?”
Jingli looked at him speechlessly: "It's time to eat."
He pointed to the camping lamp on the table: "Take that one, let's go downstairs for dinner."
It was getting late, and both of them were hungry, so Jingli didn't cook any new dishes.
There's still some chicken soup left over from lunch; we can just heat it up on the portable gas stove and eat it.
There wasn't much rice left, so Jingli cooked some noodles with the chicken soup.
Although dinner was simple, the two of them ate with great relish.
The two still didn't talk much during the meal.
Jiang Zichu was doing it out of habit, while Jing Li was arranging the capture of the shadowy figure in her mind with 6058.
In the dimly lit villa, only the ticking of an old-fashioned wall clock could be heard.
Jiang Zichu glanced at the time, then suddenly put down his bowl:
"Eat quickly, leave the bowls there and we'll clean them up tomorrow. Go back to your room now."
Jingli asked in confusion, "What's wrong?"
Jiang Zichu frowned: "In our family, we have a rule that everyone must be back in their room before nine o'clock."
That was obviously something he made up.
Jiang Zichu didn't dare tell Jing Li directly about the strange things he sensed.
He was afraid that Jingli would also think he was sick and thus distance herself from him like Jiang Yuanqi did.
"Oh."
Jingli nodded and continued eating at a leisurely pace.
Seeing that Jingli didn't believe him, Jiang Zichu became a little anxious. Unable to find a new reason to urge Jingli, he said in a less than pleasant tone:
"I can't be bothered with you."
Jiang Zichu turned to leave.
"and many more."
Jingli called out to him, "Can I go to your room to get a few more clothes?"
Jiang Zichu remained silent for a while before finally agreeing.
"Then hurry up."
He unusually refrained from making those strange jokes. Jingli neatly arranged the bowls and chopsticks and asked, "Jiang Zichu, are you scared?"
Jiang Zichu, unsure where Jing Li got his conclusion, retorted, "What am I afraid of?"
"I'm afraid of what you said yesterday, about something dirty." Jingli asked sincerely, her tone extremely earnest.
Jiang Zichu, however, was struck in the heart by his words, and like a lion with its mane bristling, she was all bark and no bite: "Are you trying to use this excuse to get me to sleep with you?"
He himself felt that he was only making things more obvious.
Jingli simply watched Jiang Zichu quietly.
Watching Jiang Zichu's expression change from an indifferent look full of flaws to one filled with fear and impatience.
Jiang Zichu couldn't keep up the act any longer and blurted out:
"Go grab your clothes and leave, you're so annoying."
He then fled back to his room.
[Jingli: Jiang Zichu can really sense these shadowy figures.]
[Jingli: Is he like A-Lan?]
6058 marveled at Jingli's perception once again, but did not give a clear answer.
His idiot has too little experience, and he's afraid that he'll project his feelings for Ruan Qinglan onto Jiang Zichu.
He had seen the original character arc of the idiot in this world, and even though it was vague, the idiot's love interest was his childhood sweetheart.
As for the gods of this world, let them be obedient sons.
After finishing their meal, Jingli tidied up the food on the table and went to Jiang Zichu's room.
Before going in, he seemingly casually circled around the entrance.
When I entered the room, Jiang Zichu had already finished showering and was now in her pajamas, taking her medicine.
"Take any clothes you like, just don't let me see you in my room tomorrow morning."
Jingli obediently took out two pieces of clothing from the bottom of his trunk; after all, taking out the clothes was just an excuse for him.
He picked up his clothes and walked over to Jiang Zichu: "If you could, would you like to leave?"
Jiang Zi put down his water glass and looked at him expressionlessly, as if mocking Jing Li's unrealistic ideas.
If we leave, where will we go?
He chuckled softly.
This isn't a hypothetical "if it were possible" scenario; it's pure fantasy.
“We can’t leave. If we don’t leave now, I’ll assume you’re going to sleep with me.”
He climbed into bed on his own and said no more.
Jingli stood there for a while longer before leaving Jiang Zichu's room.
·
That evening, Xiao Huka, who was still in the eye of the storm, suddenly posted a message on his social media platform.
- Actress Jingli V: @WatchYinYangProgram Team, can you save me?
Let's see if Yin and Yang is a metaphysical program.
Unlike other variety shows with structured segments, this program takes a different approach, broadcasting live without a script.
In the first season, the production team invited seven somewhat famous "masters." At the start of the show, each "master" chose a direction, and the entire production team went around to solve the problem of that direction.
Of the seven people invited, two were exposed as frauds on the show, while the remaining five contributed many thrilling moments. From catching adulterers live on air to dismantling crime scenes, the show became an instant hit.
The most popular master among them is named Qiongyu.
Master Qiongyu is not only exceptionally powerful and handsome, but also the world's first Oracle.
He claimed that he had heard a divine message that God would use his body to save all living beings.
And that's exactly what he did.
Before appearing on the show, he had already helped many people through social media platforms and live streams. On the show, he demonstrated his extraordinary abilities, always able to accurately sense danger and rescue people from crisis.
Later in the program, the remaining five "masters" also vaguely received divine revelation.
People have a higher regard for the sky.
The god that Qiongyu spoke of—Cisheng—has also gained more and more people's reverence.
Early yesterday morning, Qiongyu suddenly posted a message on social media.
- Stay home as much as possible recently, something big is about to happen.
The topic of celestial prophecies has become a trending topic, causing widespread anxiety.
Meanwhile, the Yin Yang production team seized the opportunity and launched a surprise live broadcast to announce the start of the second season.
Then this nobody got involved with him.
Jingli was previously known to the public because of Jiang Yuanqi, and there was little comment control in the comments section, mostly just jokes from passersby.
- Oh dear? Is the rich lady uncomfortable? Or does Mr. Jiang have some strange fetish?
-Don't try to get involved with Jiang Zemin. He claims Jiang Zemin is deeply in love with him, but I think it's all just his own hype.
- That's right. It's been rumored for so long, but we haven't heard anything from Jiang's side. Why not just focus on building a good career instead of resorting to these crooked and unethical methods?
Seeing that the buzz surrounding the big shot's pursuit was about to die down, I quickly came out to ride the coattails again.
-Jiang's PR team, please say something! This guy is really annoying.
……
But Jingli went offline after posting this message and stopped responding.
Meanwhile, in Yin Yang's pilot live stream, many viewers were discussing this matter.
- Master Qiong, can you tell whether what that nobody said is true or false?
- Stop letting him take advantage of the situation. Just find out if the marriage between Boss Jiang and him is true or false, and tear apart the lies of this nobody!
- I think he's deliberately making it sound mysterious. Let's not talk about him anymore, or we'll really get caught up in his hype.
……
In the second season, the production team once again invited Qiongyu to be the host. In addition to him, there were a total of 8 masters who either applied on their own or were invited by the production team.
Qiongyu became interested in the discussion in the comments and moved his fingers with his eyes closed.
Seeing this, the others also fell silent and waited quietly for Qiongyu's conclusion.
"Oh?"
He opened his eyes.
"I can't even pinpoint his exact location?"
He frowned slightly, took out his calligraphy brush, and drew a line in the air:
“He and Mr. Jiang have no predestined relationship, but the entanglement between them is unusual and strange... I can’t even see through it.”
He pointed to a note: "Mr. Jiang's current situation seems to be very dangerous."
Upon hearing this, the others also began to use their own tools to make their own plans.
Master Qianyu, who was holding a compass, also spoke up: "I can't calculate Jingli's location either, but judging from Mr. Jiang's location, he should be in the hospital right now."
One of the masters, who could communicate with animals, brought a kitten that kept meowing anxiously.
The master's name is Kongming. She found this cat a couple of days ago. It is exceptionally intelligent, so she brought it along to the program.
She stared at the kitten for a moment.
“Nur said it saw strange fluctuations at sea.”
Qiongyu then brandished his brush again, his brows furrowing even deeper:
“There are indeed unusual movements at sea.”
"The aura is chaotic, but there is a glimmer of hope."
"On the eve of great chaos, things took a turn for the better."
Since the topic has already come up, the director, who loves to stir things up, immediately decided on the theme for the first episode—"When Truth and Falsehood are Intertwined: Searching for Jingli."
·
Let's go back an hour.
After leaving Jiang Zichu's room, Jingli went outside the villa again with the lights on.
After doing all this, he quickly washed up and returned to the living room.
Wait patiently for the prey to fall into the net.
Based on yesterday's battle, the afternoon's experience, and Jiang Zichu's performance, Jingli set up a "beast trap" in Jiang Zichu's room. (The method for making the beast trap was learned from a wilderness survival video provided by 6058.)
These shadowy figures would be trapped in the cage set up by Jing Li as soon as they got close to Jiang Zichu's room.
As for why Keiri didn't go back to her own room—
Because he wasn't confident in his plan.
The shadowy figures I captured in the study this afternoon weren't very big, and absorbing them took all of Jingli's energy.
Yesterday's "worm" was almost half the size of Jiang Zichu's room, and Jingli wasn't sure if she could trap it.
As a responsible father, Jingli cannot put her son in danger.
He couldn't directly stand guard at Jiang Zichu's door. These shadowy figures would become sentient when they gathered to a certain extent, as evidenced by the fact that yesterday they were even able to send a part of themselves to obstruct him.
Compared to his own room, the living room is closer to Jiang Zichu's room, so he can get there in time if the trap is triggered.
Whether it's dispelling it like yesterday or transforming it like this afternoon, it will protect Jiang Zichu completely.
Having done all this, Jingli used a concentration card to doze off on the sofa, conserving her energy.
"Click-clack," the clock continued to tick, and soon a "rustling" sound came from behind it.
Jingli clearly felt a sense of oppression.
His eyelashes fluttered, but he still pretended to be fast asleep.
Something sharp grazed his face, something malicious, and Jingli felt as if it was about to pierce his skin.
He clenched his fists, contemplating whether to conjure a sword and pierce it through, when the creature released its grip.
Perhaps feeling it couldn't gain anything from Jingli, or perhaps attracted by something else, it made a rustling sound and moved away from Jingli.
Jingli heard again the screeching sound of fingernails scraping against the wall, and the thumping sound of footsteps.
[6058: Ugh... this big fluttering moth is really ugly.]
Jingli also quietly lifted her eyelids a little and finally saw the monster's full appearance—it had huge bat wings, and the whole monster was hanging upside down from the ceiling against gravity, and the footsteps were coming from there.
Its claws, as long as its entire body, rested on the ceiling, making a piercing noise, while its upside-down "head," visible only as a thin strip in the dim light, swayed back and forth as it moved.
The monster was not fast, but it took very long strides, and soon it arrived at Jiang Zichu's door.
Just then, the trap that Jing Li had set in Jiang Zichu's room suddenly tightened, and a deafening roar erupted from the center of Jiang Zichu's room.
Sensing something, the giant fluttering moth tucked its ugly legs and flew towards Jiang Zichu's room.
--good chance!
Jingli rolled over and got up, just in time to see the large fluttering moth trapped in the trap by the door, flapping its wings vigorously.
