Chapter 37.1: “I have a friend…”

Ning Yi very quickly thought it through. Since she could transmigrate to this world, other people naturally could too. As long as she originally accepted the idea that there was transmigration in a multi-dimensional world, everything else was easy to believe.

So it wasn’t long before she got over her initial shock. She even felt a “fellow sufferers empathize with each other” sort of intimacy toward Xu Xing Ji because of their similar circumstances.

“Of course.” In regards to Xu Xing Ji’s request, Ning Yi didn’t think much and agreed. “But I should still ask Mengmeng and Wanqing. After all, we’re a group.”

“That is of course.” Xu Xing Ji said so, but he has obviously foreseen the result. He skipped over this topic and asked with interest, “How did you find out I was different?”

“You’re asking me? Before, you helped me block a basketball and agreed that I would treat you to a meal. However, later, I invited you and you refused. I don’t know how to describe it. You were just very indifferent like you didn’t know, like a robot following a script. In any case, it was very different from now. Up to now, we haven’t spoken for a week already.” Then, Ning Yi also lowered her voice. She earnestly looked around. Seeing there was no one around, she asked in a small voice, “I just wanted to ask – were you not here this week? Do you also have a way to transmigrate back?”

Xu Xing Ji’s eyes flashed, but it very quickly vanished. He replied, “No, it’s just that I transmigrated here and there were some problems integrating.”

Hearing this, Ning Yi was inevitably a little disappointed, but it was also within her expectations. If it was possible to transmigrate back and forth, wouldn’t the world be in chaos?

She nodded. “Oh, so it was like this ah. I didn’t experience that kind of situation at the time. It’s good that you’re fine.”

Xu Xing Ji had also only momentarily lost himself, he very quickly returned to normal. He subtly questioned, “You’re completely free from the plot’s control?”

Ning Yi, however, only thought he was envious and comforted him with the tone of an experienced person. “You’ll also be fine very soon. Then again, your role is only so much anyway. I don’t mind helping you get it over with either. We are both humble people under the skies. If I promise to help you, I will definitely help.”

Xu Xing Ji smiled again. “Then I’ll thank you in advance!”

Ning Yi nodded and added, “I’ll say it first ah, I can help you, but it can’t take too much of my time. I’m recently going through questions with Wanqing!”

Xu Xing Ji jokingly said, “Your relationship with Wanqing now is actually good, did you forget that you two are rivals in love ah?”

Ning Yi heard this and immediately made a “can’t stand it” expression, curling her lip as she said, “Alright, I don’t care about other people, but do you still have to say these things? It’s not like I’m the real ‘Ning Yi’.”

Xu Xing Ji deeply looked at her with an unknown meaning. He smiled as he unhurriedly replied, “En, makes sense…”

“Okay, then let’s leave it like this for now. I’m going to my room, see you in the afternoon.” Ning Yi waved goodbye.

Xu Xing Ji: “Okay, see you in the afternoon.”

Ning Yi closed the door to her room. Xu Xing Ji turned around and slightly nodded at the male who had been standing for who knows how long at the corner by the fire exit, then took his room key and swiped open the door to the room diagonally opposite of Ning Yi’s.

“Huh? Brother Nan, why are you standing here? F*ck, this hotel is so lousy. I bought a Coke and the cash register was broken, what a waste of time! Plus, elevators are pitifully sparse- such a large group of people and there are only two elevators. All of them are down there waiting! Fortunately, we’re on the second floor. Here, a Mizone1 for you… Sss– What’s with that ah?”

Fang Ci pushed open the door to fire escape and saw Lu Xu Nan who was standing there ramrod straight like a door god. He complained while using the drink to tap the other person’s arm, but was firmly frozen by the coldness in Lu Xu Nan’s eyes when he turned around.

Lu Xu Nan lowered his eyes and took the drink bottle in his hand, not saying anything.

Fang Ci blinked and tactfully didn’t press. However, Lu Xu Nan took the initiative to talk.

“I have a friend…”

Once he heard this opening, Fang Ci lost control of his expression a little: “…”

However, Lu Xu Nan didn’t pay attention to his friend’s twitching expression, pondering as he continued to speak, “He suddenly discovered he likes a girl who had always liked him, but…that girl seems to like someone else…you say, what should he do?”

Ning Yi likes someone else?! Impossible! He hadn’t seen her getting close with any wild men recently ah!

Fang Ci almost slipped and shouted it aloud, he held it back with great difficulty, then he said, “This…you, cough cough, I mean your friend isn’t certain that girl likes another person, right?”

Lu Xu Nan wrinkled his eyebrows as he thought back on the scene he saw just now, his face became uglier. “If she doesn’t like someone else, would she get fresh with other men, and pat his shoulder and pat his arm?”

Fang Ci speechlessly choked, he said, “This, reasonably speaking, Brother Nan, the Great Qing dynasty has already ended for several hundred years. Nowadays, having some physical contact between men and women… isn’t that too normal? It’s not like it’s kissing…”

“You still want them to kiss?!” Lu Xu Nan looked at him in displeasure.

Fang Ci: “…”

??? What and what ah? How did you come to the conclusion that I would have such a thought???

He paused for a while and finally raised his hand in surrender against the other’s oppressive gaze. “I was only giving an example, saying that perhaps they don’t have some intimate relationship.”

With this, Lu Xu Nan’s face cleared up somewhat. “Then since they don’t have any special relationship, what should he do?”

Fang Ci couldn’t help silently criticizing: Ai, I only said perhaps, okay? You just pick out what you want to hear from this?

But due to respect that his good brother was finally enlightened to his feelings, he didn’t ridicule or attack the other person’s enthusiasm. He waved his fist and said, “What to do? Step up if you’re a man! Kill and the matter will be over! As long as you can obtain her affection the fastest, other wild men can’t catch up to you! Don’t blame me for saying this, Brother Nan, but with just your face alone, you’re already ahead by a greater half of the way!”

The expression on Lu Xu Nan’s face finally completely eased. He arrogantly nodded, shaking the Mizone in his hand. “Thanks, Ci’er.”

After he finished speaking, he suddenly reacted. Giving a cough, he said, “I said it’s my friend! You say, what am I doing?”

Fang Ci: …Okay, it is whatever you say it is.
