Ling Yuan looked at him, then turned to Liu Xiulan.
"No need, Auntie."
"I'm not staying tonight."
Bibi Xi's smile froze on his face, "Why?"
"It's very close to the Spirit Hall anyway,"
"Plus I can fly and I'll be there in a few minutes."
Bibi Xi's expression changed from expectant to petrified.
"It's not very safe at night."
Qian Xunji watched this scene silently.
He thought to himself: It's not safe to sleep with you!
But he didn't say anything, just suppressed his laughter silently.
Ling Yuan glanced at Bibi Xi, smiled and flicked his forehead.
"No, thank you for your concern."
Bibi Xi covered his forehead with a look of despair.
Then, Ling Yuan stood up, walked to Bibi Dong, and took her hand.
"Sister Dong'er, let's go shopping on the street."
Bibi Dong's eyes lit up, "Okay."
She stood up immediately, and Qian Xunji also stood up.
"I'll go with you."
Bibi Dong waved his hand, "No, no, you chat with your parents, Ling Yuan and I will be back after a while."
Qian Xunji hesitated, "Would it be unsafe?"
"No, it's nearby, not far away, and Ling Yuan is here."
Ling Yuan nodded aside. "Don't worry, His Holiness the Pope, I will protect sister Dong'er."
Hearing this, Qian Xunji finally nodded, "Okay, come back soon."
Bibi Dong stood up on tiptoes and kissed him on the face.
"I know."
The two girls held hands and left the backyard talking and laughing.
The backyard is quiet.
Bi Dashan shook the cattail leaf fan and watched the two girls' backs disappear into the night.
"It's great to be young."
Qian Xunji sat down again and picked up the tea cup.
Bibi Xi still maintained his petrified posture, sitting there motionless.
Bi Dashan glanced at him and said, "Son, are you okay?"
Bibi Xi slowly turned his head and looked at his own father.
"Dad, tell me, am I a failure?"
"Why do you say that suddenly?"
"Ling Yuan are not willing to sleep in the same room with me..."
"Son, if the girl is unwilling, it means that the person is serious. What's wrong with this?"
Bibi Xi After thinking about it, it seems... it makes sense?
Qian Xunji was drinking tea silently.
He didn't say anything.
But he thought to himself: This guy is still too young.
If it were me, I would definitely choose to sleep in the living room first, in the dead of night, and then see if I have a chance.
Just then, suddenly--
[Drip!]
The voice of the system rang in his mind, scaring him so much that he almost lost his balance.
[Congratulations to the host, the favorability of Bibi Dong has reached 100%! Obtained a mysterious gift: Time Watch, one hundred thousand years External Soul Bone·Fire Dragon Claw! The reward has been placed Angel Ring, please check it.]
Qian Xunji was startled.
100%?
Time Watch? One hundred thousand years External Soul Bone?
Qian Xunji secretly laughed.
Liu Xiulan just walked out of the house and was stunned for a moment when she saw his expression.
"Qian Xun, what's wrong? So happy?"
Qian Xunji quickly calmed down his expression and coughed lightly.
"I thought of something, mother-in-law, father-in-law, I will go upstairs to rest first."
Liu Xiulan nodded. "Okay, go to bed early."
Bi Dashan was shaking a cattail leaf fan and waving his hands. "Go ahead, go ahead."
Qian Xunji turned around and went upstairs, walking three minutes faster than usual.
Master bedroom on the second floor.
Qian Xunji Close the door and take a deep breath.
He raised his hand, looked at Angel Ring, and thought -
A red light flashed, and a red External Soul Bone appeared in his palm.
The Spirit Bone is shaped like a dragon's claw, with slightly curved fingers. There are faint flame patterns flowing on the surface. Just holding it in your hand, you can feel a burning breath.
One hundred thousand years, External Soul Bone.
Qian Xunji's eyes lit up.
If he absorbs this thing, his strength can reach another level.
He carefully put Fire Dragon Claw into Angel Ring, and then continued to look at the ring.
There is one more thing.
He thought again, and a simple watch appeared in his palm.
Silver-white strap, round dial, only two indicators on the dial, without any scale.
Looks like a regular... vintage watch?
Qian Xunji Looked over and over several times.
"How do you use this watch?" he muttered.
He noticed a small button on the side of the dial.
red.
Looks... easy to press.
Qian Xunji hesitated for a second.
Then he pressed it.
"Beep--"
A white light flashed.
The next second, the space in front of him began to distort.
The watch seemed to be attracted by some force, and flew into the twisted space with a "swish" and disappeared without a trace.
The space has returned to normal.
The room was eerily quiet.
Qian Xunji kept reaching out and froze in place.
"Where's my watch?"
He looked down at his empty palms, then looked up at the empty air in front of him.
Silence fell.
"System, what's going on?"
[Host, that button is the time transfer function.]
[If you put on the watch and press it again, the time will jump, but if you don't wear it...]
"What if I don't wear it?"
[Then only the watch will jump by itself.]
Qian Xunji: "..."
[This system wanted to remind the host just now, but the host pressed too fast.]
Qian Xunji was extremely unwilling, "Can I get it back?"
[No, this system cannot find it.]
Qian Xunji grabbed his hair in annoyance, that legendary bug-like artifact that can control time...
It's just gone.
Because he didn't wear it.
Because he is mean.
He stood there with a complex expression as if he had swallowed a hundred flies.
Finally, he let out a long sigh.
"Okay, anyway, I'm not with her just for the system reward..."
He comforted himself, took Fire Dragon Claw out of Angel Ring, looked at it, and put it back again.
At least there is this.
External Soul Bone for one hundred thousand years, no loss.
Thinking this way, he felt a little better.
After half an hour, the door was pushed open.
Bibi Dong walked in, holding a glass of water in his hand.
"Husband, why are you standing alone?"
Qian Xunji came back to his senses and forced out a smile, "It's nothing, I'm just thinking about something."
Bibi Dong glanced at him suspiciously and didn't ask any more questions.
She came over with a cup in hand, sat on the edge of the bed, and drank in small sips.
Qian Xunji sat down next to her and smelled it, "Why is it so spicy?"
Bibi Dong paused while drinking water, "No, no..."
Qian Xunji looked at her, Bibi Dong's eyes began to wander.
Qian Xunji suddenly came closer.
"Give me a kiss."
Bibi Dong quickly leaned back, "I, I'll drink some water first--"
Qian Xunji How can I give her a chance?
He put his arms around her waist and kissed her directly.
Bibi Dong said "Huh", struggled twice, and then gave up quickly.
At the same time, Qian Xunji tasted the taste in her mouth, which was spicy.
There is also a smell of barbecue spices.
He let go of her and looked at her.
"What did you eat?"
Bibi Dong lowered his head guiltily and twisted his clothes with his fingers.
"Barbecue... it's not very spicy. I asked the chef to make it less spicy."
