Li Sushang, Mortified

Having heard a lot about Gwen from Otto these past few days, Li Sushang felt even closer to Gwen as she listened to his fluent and clear Divine Land dialect, and said with a smile.

"I was being too formal. But you can put aside the title of 'young hero' and just call me Gwen, Miss Li."

Seeing the girl's carefree demeanor, Gwen didn't dwell on such a trivial matter.

Similarly, you can just call me by my name.

Upon hearing this, the straightforward girl readily nodded, but then took a step back, opened the door, and looked past Gwen towards You Lan Dai Er and the others not far away.

"By the way, didn't the Rakshasa people say that a few more girls would be moving in?"

Why are they all stopping so far away?

"The plans have changed, and it's a bit inconvenient for them to stay here. They need to stay somewhere else temporarily for a while."

Gwen inwardly scoffed at Otto's unreliability, but didn't ask if Otto hadn't told her. He simply offered a casual explanation for the girl.

"Moreover, even you, Miss Li, might need to find a new place to stay—"

Bishop Otto should have already sent you a message; you should be able to find it in your terminal.

"Terminal?"

Upon hearing Gwen's words, Li Sushang blinked, her small hand instinctively reaching for the inner pocket of her sleeve. Finding nothing, she immediately turned and ran into the house.

"I put it inside, I'll go check on it in a moment."

As soon as she finished speaking, Li Sushang ran into a room.

Seeing Gwen did not follow him inside, but waited outside the door.

After waiting a few minutes, Li Sushang reappeared in Gwen's sight.

At that moment, Li Sushang was seen carrying a long cloth bag on her back and pulling a large suitcase in each hand, running quickly towards the door.

"Sorry to keep you waiting. The Rakshasa did send me a message saying they were moving. It's my fault for not seeing the message because I was studying the ingenious devices in this house."

Li Sushang rushed to Gwen, her pretty face flushed, and apologized to him before explaining.

"It's alright. I know about Miss Li's situation. It's normal that she needs some time to adapt."

Besides, you were only just notified, so it's understandable that you didn't see it.

Seeing the girl's face flushed slightly, whether from anxiety or apology, making her look exceptionally charming, Gwen smiled and reached out to take a suitcase.

Seeing Gwen staring at her, Li Sushang's heart stirred slightly, and she slowed down her handing over the suitcase. However, Gwen grabbed her slender wrist, which made her react quickly.

"Give."

Although she was born in the Ming Dynasty, Li Sushang, as a woman of the martial arts world, was not as pretentious as ordinary young ladies. She did not change color because of this contact. Her pretty face, which was slightly flushed, remained smiling as she handed the suitcase to Gwen.

"This is what the Rakshasa asked me to give you. He said you know what this is. I haven't looked through it myself. You can check it."

"No need, I trust Miss Li's character."

Gwen took the heavy suitcase, smiled, and shook his head.

I just hope this move didn't cause you any trouble.

"People of the martial world make their homes wherever they go, so why worry about trouble?"

Li Sushang, on the other hand, took it all in stride and didn't care at all.

"Then let's go."

Seeing this, Gwen said no more and led Li Sushang away.

"The new home we've arranged for you is right next to mine."

"Alright, the Rakshasa said that if I have any questions about... the technological creations of modern society, I can ask you for help, which is convenient."

Li Sushang, who was following behind Gwen, smiled upon hearing this.

"No problem, Miss Li, if you have any questions, please feel free to ask me."

Gwen agreed without hesitation.

"Gwen, who is this..."

Just a few minutes after seeing Gwen, Raiden Mei led in another woman whose beauty rivaled any of the people present, with a free and easy demeanor, as if she had stepped out of a movie. Raiden Mei couldn't help but ask.

"This is Miss Li Sushang, a native of Divine Land."

Seeing that everyone's attention was focused on him, Gwen casually introduced himself, stepped aside, and gestured for Li Sushang to do her own thing.

"I am Li Sushang, the First Disciple of the Supreme Freedom Sect. I greet you all and hope you will take good care of me in the future."

Facing the curious gazes of the crowd, Li Sushang was not intimidated. She raised her hands in a fist salute and introduced herself.

However, upon hearing Li Sushang's self-introduction, most of the group looked somewhat puzzled.

Most of the people present could understand some common Divine Land, but Li Sushang's way of speaking, which was different from the modern Divine Land language, was somewhat unexpected. Those who were not so proficient in Divine Land had to guess to understand Li Sushang's meaning, such as You Lan Dai Er, who was fluent in English, French, German and Russian.

However, although it took her a little longer to understand Li Sushang's meaning, You Lan Dai Er was the first to react and greet Li Sushang.

"Hello Li Sushang, I am Bianca You Lan Dai Er Atagina, it's a pleasure to meet you."

With You Lan Dai Er leading the way, the girls introduced themselves one by one.

Although it took a little time to understand Li Sushang's words, everyone could feel Li Sushang warm and carefree attitude.

However, just as it took everyone a moment to understand Li Sushang's words, it also took Li Sushang a little time to understand the girls' broken Divine Land.

Seeing the nervous expression unconsciously appearing on Li Sushang's pretty face, Gwen, who was standing to the side, did not intend to watch the show. He used his mental power to directly relay the words of You Lan Dai Er and the others to Li Sushang, so that she could accurately call out everyone's name when greeting them, instead of having to awkwardly ask people to repeat her name.

Chapter 318 Li Sushang, who felt ashamed.

After getting to know everyone, Li Sushang secretly breathed a sigh of relief and cast a grateful glance at Gwen.

Although it's unclear how Gwen did it, Gwen did indeed help her a lot just now.

Faced with the girl's grateful gaze, Gwen simply smiled and shook his head, saying there was no need to be so polite, before turning to Mei, who was staring at him—

"For some reason, Miss Su Shang is somewhat out of touch with the current world and needs someone to help her adapt to the technological products, values, and various ideas and common sense of modern society."

Our Bishop Otto asked Miss Su Shang to bring me some things, and by doing so, he assigned this task to me.

Therefore, Su Shang Chang will also be our neighbor from now on.

If she encounters anything she doesn't understand, please help her clarify it.

"I see..."

Mei's heart skipped a beat when she suddenly met Gwen's gaze. She quickly spoke after Gwen finished:

"I also experienced a period of disconnection from the world after three years of recuperation when I was a child, so I understand what that feels like. I will definitely do my best to help Miss Su Shang."

"Yeah, yeah, leave it to us."

Upon hearing Mei's words, Kiana, who had regained her energy, immediately jumped out and patted her chest to assure her.

"I don't doubt your enthusiasm, Kiana, but you yourself have a lot to learn. Don't bring your misconceptions to Su Shang..."

Seeing that the girl had regained her energy, Gwen smiled and joked.

"Hehe, with my intelligence, catching up on those lessons will be a piece of cake..."

Although she subconsciously resisted tutoring, Kiana didn't want to lose face after hearing Gwen's words.

"Well, Kiana, you'd better study hard during your tutoring sessions from now on. You can't just dawdle in class and not do your homework after class."

Gwen nodded with a smile, then pulled his suitcase and called for everyone to get started.

"Alright, let's hurry up and go. We still need to tidy up the house after we get there, or we'll miss lunch."

"Ugh, I have to clean the house again. It feels like I just did it a few days ago..."

Upon hearing this, Kiana's ahoge (cowlick) immediately deflated.

There's no other reason than that Kiana was deeply impressed by Himeko's house when she was cleaning it up a few days ago.

"Miss Kiana, the headquarters' uniform housing is cleaned by professionals after the original owners move out. You can move in with just your bags. It only requires a simple cleaning."

Hearing Kiana's somewhat resistant words, Rita, who was beside You Lan Dai Er, smiled and reminded her.

"Eh, really?"

Upon hearing Rita's words, Kiana immediately perked up, and her previous slight resistance vanished.

Beside Kiana, Mei watched Mei walking ahead, dragging a Gwen identical to Li Sushang's, and a strange mix of emotions stirred within her.

Before long, the group arrived at their destination.

However, this time Gwen stopped in front of the building—

"Bianca, Rita, I can't go into the Valkyrie dormitory building here, so I'll trouble you to accompany Kiana, Mei, and Bronya in and help them settle in."

Su Shang lives in the house next door to me; I'm going to help her tidy up.

Although Gwen had been curious about places like "girls' dormitories" when he was young, that was in the past, and now was not the time to satisfy that curiosity.

"Okay, leave it to me and Rita."

You Lan Dai Er didn't think much of it when he heard this, and picked up Mei and Bronya's suitcases with one hand each.

As for Kiana, the Caslana family isn't so weak that they can't even lift this little bit.

"Then Gwen, see you at noon."

Rita waved to Gwen with a smile.

See you at noon.

Gwen waved to Rita and then spoke to Mei, who seemed somewhat hesitant.

"Mei, come upstairs. I live in the row of bungalows behind this building. You'll see me when you come downstairs and walk through that path after you've finished getting ready."

"Okay, I'll go up now... See you at noon."

Mei glanced at the suitcase in Gwen's hand, suppressed her slight displeasure, and followed Kiana and the others upstairs.

"Miss Su Shang Chang, let's go too."

Seeing that everyone had gone upstairs, Gwen also called Li Sushang, who was beside him, to go to the new home prepared for her.

Although Li Sushang's residence wasn't as meticulously cleaned and prepared as Rita's when Gwen moved in, it was still move-in ready and not difficult to clean.

What truly took Gwen some time and effort was explaining the functions and uses of various tools and appliances to Li Sushang, who was like a curious child.

Before noon, Kiana and the others upstairs had already tidied up their rooms and come to Gwen's place to help him answer Li Sushang 'Gwen questions, which helped the girls who had just met to get to know each other better.

Rita wanted to prepare lunch for everyone herself, but Gwen You Lan Dai Er jointly refused.

"Rita, you just finished a mission and then helped settle into your new home and clean it. Don't add any more work for yourself."

After enjoying a delicious meal with the girls at the restaurant, Gwen bid farewell to everyone and then returned home with a suitcase full of "Holy Relic" given to him by Otto.

However, when Gwen opened the suitcase, his expression became quite strange—

The suitcase contained not the various 500-year-old artifacts that Gwen had envisioned being carefully preserved, but rather some antique-style clothes and objects.

Meanwhile, Li Sushang, sitting next door, stared wide-eyed at the various strange and unusual things in the suitcase.

After a moment's thought, Li Sushang realized that the two suitcases had probably gotten mixed up while she was packing the house.

At the same time, Li Sushang also realized that the box containing her clothes and a few pieces of jewelry was with Gwen.

"Oh no, I hope Gwen hasn't opened it yet..."

The girl, feeling a sense of foreboding but also filled with anticipation, quickly closed her suitcase and rushed to Gwen's house, ringing the doorbell.

"Um?

"What's wrong, Su Shang?"

Gwen, looking bewildered, opened the door and saw the girl whose fair face was now flushed.

"Call..."

Seeing Gwen's appearance, Li Sushang breathed a sigh of relief, feeling slightly calmer. She quickly shoved the suitcase handle into Gwen's hand, but her words were no longer as carefree as before, carrying a hint of embarrassment—

"Um... it seems that these two suitcases were mixed up when we were cleaning. These are the things the Rakshasa wanted me to bring you."

"My mistake, I didn't notice and took the wrong one. Su Shang, please wait a moment, I'll go get your luggage for you."
