Transmigrated into the body of a prematurely deceased beloved child

Chapter 10 Good Results and Bad Results 9

Shi Qinian had a good sense of direction. After a while, the fog gradually thinned, and towns could be faintly seen in the distance.

By this time, Zhao Zhao had almost regained her strength, so she pushed away Shi Qinian, who was supporting her arm, without hesitation.

Shi Qinian didn't care and casually joked, "Zhao Shenzi is so heartless, he uses you and then throws you away."

Zhao Zhao merely glanced at him indifferently.

Shi Qinian: ...

The rumors are true; Zhao Shenzi is indeed aloof.

Seeing Zhao Zhao walking steadily towards the town ahead, Shi Qinian kindly reminded her, "Once you cross that town, you'll be in the Demon Realm."

Zhao Zhao nodded, "Yes, farewell."

Since he had helped her, Zhao Zhao politely clasped her hands in thanks to him.

"Who said we shouldn't go?" Shi Qinian was taken aback. "Weren't you going to the Demon Realm to rescue the goddess?"

"Ah."

"Then we should act together so we can take care of each other."

"Oh." Zhao Zhao understood what he meant.

Shi Qinian: ...

The two remained silent on the way. When they arrived in town, Shi Qinian found a clothing shop and gestured for Zhaozhao to go and change her clothes.

Zhao Zhao looked bewildered. "Why?"

Shi Qinian stared at the magnificent robes he wore, which clearly belonged to the divine realm, his expression unreadable. "You came to the demon realm to save people, not to be a guest."

"It would be best if we kept a low profile."

Shi Qinian casually picked up a piece of clothing from the shop, handed it to him, and said, "Put this on."

Zhao Zhao turned her head away, not even glancing at the clothes, and said, "I'm not wearing them."

This time, Shi Qinian was bewildered. He asked, "Why?"

"I don't like it." Three simple and clear words, straightforward and direct: if you don't like it, you don't want to wear it.

"You, you, you..." Shi Qinian stammered for a long time, not knowing what to say next.

Logically speaking, as long as he doesn't travel with Zhao Zhao, whether he changes his clothes, exposes his identity, or encounters danger is none of his concern.

But looking into his cold yet clear eyes, Shi Qinian thought, he's just a divine child who has only been born for a thousand years, it's normal for him to be a little spoiled and immature.

Shi Qinian has been in the world for two thousand years and has much more experience than Zhaozhao. Let's just say he's taking care of the newcomer this time.

He forced a smile and asked softly, "What kind of clothes does the goddess like?"

Zhao Zhao shook his sleeves, indicating that he liked the outfit he was wearing.

"No, you have to change it."

Towards the end, his words carried a hint of gritted teeth.

Seeing that he was unyielding, Shi Qinian had to use all sorts of persuasion before he finally agreed to look at some clothes.

"I don't want this one, the style is bad."

"This won't do, the sleeves are too tight."

"No, it's too rough."

"No, I don't like black."

"This is too glamorous..."

After a while, Zhao Zhao finally picked out a similar moon-white robe. Just as he was about to say something, Shi Qinian, with a stern face, immediately pushed him into the changing room, saying, "Hurry up and change."

After thinking for a moment, he added, "Take off your white jade crown as well."

Then I just grabbed one of the clothes and started changing.

In the blink of an eye, Zhao Zhao and Shi Qinian were dressed.

Even after they shed their elaborate costumes, their handsome features remained undiminished; they simply exuded less distance and more approachability.

Upon seeing Zhao Zhao like this, Shi Qinian's gaze seemed to be drawn to him. Suddenly, he noticed the jade pendant hanging on Zhao Zhao's body and suggested, "Why don't you take off the jade pendant too..."

Before he could finish speaking, he suddenly noticed the character "尘" (dust) above.

Seeing his sudden change in expression, Zhao Zhao assumed he was angry. She didn't mean to provoke him, so she simply took off the jade pendant.

"Pick it."

Shi Qinian: ...Alright.

Shi Qinian had originally agreed with the other two to meet at the city gate at noon when they went to the Demon Realm to rescue Na Yue's divine son and daughter. Since it was still early, he took Zhao Zhao for a short stroll around the town.

Zhao Zhao saw many novel things, but every time Shi Qinian asked him what he wanted, he would shake his head.

"Shi Qinian, what is that?"

Shi Qinian looked up and, following the direction of his finger, saw a man blushing and stuffing a sachet into the hands of a woman.

"That's a sachet, a token of love."

Zhao Zhao frowned.

Upon seeing his expression, Shi Qinian knew that he didn't understand again.

What an ethereal little god!

"Simply put, the man liked the woman, so he gave her a sachet that symbolized his affection."

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhao said something truly shocking: "You should buy one too."

Shi Qinian was stunned and asked incredulously, "Buy what?!"

"Sachet."

Zhao Zhao looked very serious.

"I will give it to the woman you like then."

Shi Qinian's lips twitched. "There's no need for that. You don't need to think about this for me."

Zhao Zhao thought to herself, "If it weren't for the mission, who would want to think about this?"
