Chapter 61: I’m Back

That night, Qing Chen bought himself a new pressure cooker. Because he needed to cook beef very often, he thought it would be nice to have one of those.

It had been a while since someone took care of his apartment on Xingshu Road. The pressure cooker was leaking, and the washer was also broken.

Now that he got gold from the Inner World, he could afford a new one.

When he was about to leave a home appliance store, he also noticed that washing machines were on sale.

Qing Chen hesitated for a moment, but ended up not buying one.

At this time, Wang Yun and Bai Waner were sitting in Jiang Xue's home.

This time, they didn't bring any champagne and whiskey. Instead, they listened to what Hu Xiaoniu told them to do and brought some vegetables.

When Jiang Xue was cooking, the two of them were watching cartoons with Li Tongyun like two elder sisters.

As they finished another episode of "PAW Patrol", Wang Yun said to Li Tongyun, "Xiaoyun, may I ask you a question?"

Li Tongyun said, "Will you give me a candy if I answer it?"

"Of course," Wang Yun smiled as she pulled out a piece of chocolate from her pocket and handed it to her, "Would this work?"

Li Tongyun said with a smile, "Thank you, I love chocolate."

"So, do you know if Brother Qing Chen is a time traveler just like your mom?" Wang Yun asked.

Li Tongyun looked confused for a moment and shook her head, "I don't know."

"Have you asked him?" asked Bai Waner. She felt like this was a normal reaction, and if Li Tongyun was sure that Qing Chen was not a time traveler, then she would be suspicious.

After all, how would a cute ten-year-old girl like her lie?

Li Tongyun thought about it for a moment and said, "I did ask Brother Qing Chen once, but he didn't say clearly if he was one or not. He just told me to rather spend my time studying hard and get into a good college."

"What else did he say?" asked Wang Yun.

"He said these time travelers are nothing great," said Li Tongyun as she opened up the piece of chocolate.

Bai Waner and Wang Yun looked at each other with a hint of joy in their eyes.

Li Tongyun didn't answer them directly, but they already got their answers.

If Qing Chen was a time traveler, then why would he say that the time travelers were nothing great?

That just proved that he was envious and was giving himself some comfort.

Bai Waner also took out a piece of chocolate from her pocket and patted Li Tongyun's head, "Xiaoyun is such a good girl."

When she said that, they both got up and said goodbye to Jiang Xue.

When they got out the door, Wang Yun asked in a low voice, "Do you think she's lying?"

"How would a girl like her make up such things? Everything seems logical and correct." Bai Waner analyzed.

"Looks like Qing Chen wasn't a time traveler after all," said Wang Yun, "Now we can tell Hu Xiaoniu to drop his worries."

What they didn't see was that as soon as the door closed, Li Tongyun spat out the chocolate in her mouth into a trash can.

She hated chocolates.

Her dad always liked to give her chocolates, but when she saw her dad beating her mom, she started hating the taste of chocolate from the bottom of her heart.

However, she kept the other piece and put it in her pocket.

…

Late at night, Qing Chen heard a knock on his door not long after he returned home.

He opened the door for Li Tongyun and said, "Come on in, what happened?."

Li Tongyun looked at his new pressure cooker and said, "You can just ask my mom to cook the beef for you. We have a pressure cooker too, and Mom can make amazing beef dishes!"

"It's okay, I need to be more independent," said Qing Chen with a smile.

"Here, this is for you." Li Tongyun gave him the piece of chocolate he had in her pocket, "The two sisters came today to ask me if you are a time traveler. Don't worry, I didn't tell them anything about you, but you need to be more careful now. They might have noticed some details from you today and started suspecting who you are."

"Okay," Qing Chen was sure that it was because of the foreign teacher, "Where did you get the chocolate from?"

Li Tongyun said without any guilt, "I bought it for you as a gift."

"Well, thank you," Qing Chen smiled.

Since Li Tongyun helped him, Qing Chen also wanted to offer her some help in return, "From what I noticed, these people did find themselves in some trouble in City 7. Their rival's name is Chen Leyou, probably someone from the Chen Corporation."

"So, they wanted to move away from City 7 to escape from Chen Corporation's control," said Li Tongyun, "But I don't have this information."

"Then what do you want?" asked Qing Chen curiously.

"I want to know your identity," said Li Tongyun, blinking her big cute eyes.

"No," Qing Chen rejected mercilessly.

"Then, Brother Qing Chen, help me write my homework," said Li Tongyun again.

"Can't do that either," Qing Chen refused. He's almost an adult now, how would he ever do such a thing?!

"Boring!" said Li Tongyun sadly, "Brother Qing Chen, these people are so annoying, always trying to find out about our secrets. Is there any way to drive them away?"

"It'll be hard, and we'll also face risks of exposing ourselves," said Qing Chen, "Also, I feel like we can use these four people."

Being suspected by someone was indeed a troublesome thing, but it was not appropriate to try to cover up every bit of detail. The best way was to…shift the focus.

They came for Liu Dezhu, so he could simply use Liu Dezhu to attract their attention away.

Not only that, but he could also earn a good sum of money from these rich kids.

Looks like he had to have a good chat with Liu Dezhu the next time he gets back to the Inner World.

"By the way, Brother Qing Cahen, National Day1National Day is October 10th in China, and it comes with a full week of break (Oct. 1-7th) for all schools and most jobs. Also known as Golden Week Holiday is only a few days away, go have fun somewhere together." Li Tongyun said as she looked at Qing Chen expectantly.

Qing Chen was confused, "Why are you suddenly asking me to go out and play with you? I need to think about this. Maybe I'll let you know in a few days?"

"Okay! I'll be waiting," said Li Tongyun, and she happily went upstairs.

In the dead of night, Qing Chen was playing a Japanese learning video on his phone while training.

…

In the remaining time of the countdown, there was no more commotion in the Outer World.

The world seemed to have settled down as if everyone was waiting for the next transmigration and He Xiaoxiao's group chat to be made.

During this time, Qing Chen had been paying attention to the kidnapping case. The nine suspects were still at large, and that might be a large contributor to why everyone remained silent.

Everyone was in danger.

Countdown 00:00:10

At the last moment, Qing Chen put the flash drive that had the chess end games into his mouth, and while he used the breathing technique, he held a kitchen knife in his right hand.

He quietly waited for the world to shatter and darkness to come.

The darkness came and dispersed, Qing Chen opened his eyes and saw Li Shutong and Ye Wan standing in front of him as if he had never left.

Li Shutong smiled, "You're back?"

"Yeah," nodded Qing Chen, "I'm back."

He noticed that only the handle of the kitchen knife in his hand was left.

This experiment was a success, at least now he knew how large of an item he could carry.
