After a brief stay in the human world, they persuaded Chang Yao without success, and returned to the demon realm.
The human world was in the midst of a winter snowstorm, while the demon realm was still immersed in the warm sun. The mountain slopes were covered with bright and red peach blossoms, and the laughter of children could be heard everywhere.
Shen Qiqi felt hot and the first thing she did when she returned to her room was to take off her furry coat and prepare to put on a thin pajama.
She opened her wardrobe and touched the smooth and cold silk clothes between her fingers. Suddenly, she remembered something and shouted without looking back, "Senior sister!"
Liu Shuang turned to look at her. "What's wrong?"
Shen Qiqi was digging through her wardrobe, extremely nervous. "Are the clothes and things I wore from back then still here?"
Liu Shuang thought for a moment before remembering that she was talking about the strange clothes with bloodstains. Seeing Shen Qiqi turn the obscene clothes into a tangled mess, she couldn't help shaking her head and said, "I put them away, they're not here."
Shen Qiqi looked up. "Where are they?!"
Looking at the messy wardrobe, Liu Shuang grabbed her wrist. "Stay still, I'll get them for you."
Shen Qiqi obediently stood still and watched as Liu Shuang took out her own pajamas, cotton slippers, and even her phone from a hidden compartment under the bookcase.
She couldn't help but be excited and walked over to take a look. Suddenly, she smiled, "Senior sister, isn't this the hairpin I used to wear? Where did you 'steal' it from?"
Liu Shuang did not answer.
Shen Qiqi directly squatted down to take a look. The hidden compartment was not very conspicuous. If Liu Shuang hadn't opened it today, she would not have found it.
There were all kinds of messy things in the hidden compartment: her hairpin, various pieces of jewelry, even her favorite painting books and several packets of snacks, etc. All were neatly arranged together and well preserved, but she didn't know how long they had been there. The snacks looked a little discolored.
She widened her eyes and exclaimed, "These are all..."
With a snap, Liu Shuang closed the hidden compartment. "It's nothing."
Shen Qiqi suddenly understood and felt a little sad.
What can these useless things be used for, especially when they are kept in such good condition? They should be used to remind oneself of a person.
She wrapped her hands around Liu Shuang's waist, hanging on her body, burying her head in her neck, shaking like a spoiled child.
The furry head rubbed against Liu Shuang's neck, and the warm breath fell on her neck, tickling her. Liu Shuang found it funny, patted her hands that were wrapped around her waist, and said, "Let go."
Shen Qiqi suddenly nibbled on her neck like a puppy and muttered, "No."
Liu Shuang paused, then two slender fingers reached back and accurately pinched her nose.
"Don't bite randomly."
Shen Qiqi teased with a sound, her teeth pressing against the slender neck, lightly nibbling on the smooth side of the neck. She whispered, "I want to mark you."
Liu Shuang suddenly felt a sharp pain on her neck, as the teeth had deeply pierced her skin, and a salty rust-colored liquid flowed out.
She half-closed her eyes, feeling a little dizzy.
After a moment, Shen Qiqi finally let go of her. The swan-like neck was now snow-white, with a beautiful set of teeth marks that were especially prominent.
She lowered her head and kissed the marks, and her eyebrows and eyes showed a sense of satisfaction and pride, "Mine."
Liu Shuang smiled and whispered back, "Yours." She turned around and stuffed something into Shen Qiqi's arms, looking indulgent and helpless. "Stop playing around."
She looked at the few light pieces of cloth, like clothes, but she had never seen such rare clothes in both the world of cultivating and the demon realm, they were loose and wide, and didn't even need a belt.
The other flat black box was even stranger, with small bumps on top that lit up when pressed, but the strange writing on it was something she had never seen before.
Shen Qiqi threw the pajamas onto the bed and hurriedly unlocked her phone.
It had been so long since she last used it, thankfully, the battery was still at two-thirds, and she could turn it on and take a look.
The top right corner still showed no signal. She clicked on several apps, and except for games that didn't require an internet connection, all the others stopped working. Shen Qiqi frowned in distress, and Liu Shuang leaned over to take a look, asking, "What is all of this?"
She looked so cute with her confused expression that Shen Qiqi couldn't help but laugh and explain, "This is the medium that we use in our hometown to transmit information. It's called a phone. Um, just think of it as a carrier pigeon!" She added, "No matter how far apart people are, as long as they have a phone, they can communicate with each other."
Liu Shuang thought of long-distance communication and nodded, "Amazing. How does this phone work? Is it powered by spiritual energy?"
"Uh..." Shen Qiqi paused, "It should be powered by electricity..."
Liu Shuang furrowed her brows even deeper, "What is electricity? Lightning?"
As a liberal arts student, Shen Qi Qi felt a suffocating sense of powerlessness, "It should be something like that!" She quickly changed the subject, "But in our world, everyone has no spiritual energy or cultivation, and everyone is just an ordinary person."
There was such a wonderful world, and Liu Shuang was deeply surprised, as if she had become a curious baby. She asked again, "So, are you using your phone now to communicate with someone from another world?"
"No, I don't have a signal now, so I can't communicate..."
Liu Shuang looked at the phone screen like an old person looking at a subway map, "What is a signal?"
Shen Qiqi: "..."
Knowing that you used to be a top student, can you please not be so thirsty for knowledge?!
I don't know how to explain it either!!!
Suddenly, her expression changed, and her tone became serious, "It's a mysterious power from another world that is difficult to understand. Even if I explain it, you won't understand it."
Liu Shuang: ?
It sounded unreliable.
She didn't choose to delve further, only nodded and said, "Okay."
Shen Qiqi smirked a few times and lowered her head, accidentally opening the writing software she usually used.
She casually glanced at it, but was stunned.
This writing software had a synchronization backup function. What was written on the computer would also be saved on the mobile phone at the first moment.
She opened the writing document of this book, and sure enough, the last line was the one she wrote before crossing over.
Suddenly, Shen Qiqi had a bold idea and her fingers trembled with excitement.
Seeing that something was wrong with her expression, Liu Shuang asked in a deep voice, "What's wrong?"
"Senior Sister, "Shen Qiqi looked at her, her eyes flashing with a strange light, "Do you want to go to that world and take a look?"
....
There were suddenly several loud noises in the empty bedroom, and the ding-a-ling of a bell, as if something had been knocked over on the ground.
Shen Qiqi looked up and bumped into the computer desk next to her, holding her head and gritting her teeth, "Damn!"
Liu Shuang reached out and pulled her up, dusting off the ash on her body, "Are you okay?"
"I'm fine." Shen Qiqi waved her hand, looking around, her expression gradually becoming excited, "Oh my god, I really came back!"
Familiar master bedroom, familiar hallway, familiar furniture and decoration!
Unexpectedly, she, Shen Qiqi, had returned!
The indoor lighting was dim, and Shen Qiqi got up and walked to the French window. With a swish, she pulled open the curtains, and the dazzling afternoon sunlight shone into the bedroom.
Outside the window, a row of modern high-rise buildings glistened in the sunlight.
Liu Shuang's expression gradually changed, "This is..."
"This is my hometown." Shen Qiqi turned around, leaning against the sunlight with a bright smile, "Senior Sister, welcome to my home!"
Finally connecting to the wifi, a large number of messages rushed in like snowflakes, almost crashing her phone. Shen Qiqi pulled Liu Shuang to sit on the sofa in the living room, opened WeChat, and after disappearing for several months, the reader group was already full of crying voices.
Person A: "Oh no, it's been almost half a year since the author disappeared. I hope the new book won't be abandoned!!!"
Wuhuqifei: "Damn it! If she doesn't update soon, my yuri partner will finish writing before her."
Buxian Chunfeng: "We should trust that the author will come back to finish the story. I just hope the next book will be a sweet one and the female lead won't suffer like Liu Shuang."
Ning Ning Jiang: "Wake up, sisters! The chance of her writing a sweet story is even lower than her coming back to update the current one."
Tong Tong Jiang: "Considering the time of her disappearance, I suspect that the author might have been transported into the book and punished by the female lead, suffering from all kinds of plot twists..."
Person A: "Wait, wait, wait! I just noticed that the author's profile picture is lit up! She's online!!!"
The chat room suddenly explodes with 99+ messages.
Shen Qiqi, who was secretly spying, panics and immediately goes offline.
But it's too late; the readers' messages keep pouring in and she can't keep up.
Feeling a headache coming on, she rubs the pressure point between her eyebrows and exits the chat, opening a different app.
Liu Shuang doesn't understand modern text and looks at the constantly jumping black squares on the screen, confused. "What is this?"
"This is an instant messaging tool," Shen Qiqi explains, feeling guilty. "Those people in the chat were readers of my novel. They were discussing why I disappeared."
Liu Shuang nods and asks, "What were they talking about?"
"They were talking about why I disappeared. Some even said I was transported into the book. But they all love you and think you deserve a companion for the rest of your life," Shen Qiqi says.
Liu Shuang gives her a sidelong glance. "So why didn't you give me one?"
Shen Qiqi confidently replies, "Because none of them are good enough for you! How could you, the female lead, end up with a scumbag? And why do you have to be with the male lead all the time? Isn't it better to be a successful businesswoman?"
Liu Shuang raises an eyebrow. "Daughter?"
Under the other's intense gaze, Shen Qiqi's voice gradually fades, "Um, who would have thought that one day, even such pure maternal love could be corrupted..."
Liu Shuang smiles faintly and lightly taps her forehead.
She said calmly, "It seems like you have more than one daughter."
"I'm not, I don't!"
Shen Qiqi suddenly felt a strange feeling of being caught in the act when she remembered all the articles she had written.
She covered her face with her hands, revealing a pair of round eyes through her fingers, and said cautiously, "No, no, no, they are all real daughters. You are the official wife, daughter-in-law, girlfriend, and wife."
Liu Shuang looked at her and suddenly asked, "Will there be new daughters in the future?"
"No!" I'll stop writing now!
Shen Qiqi replied immediately, "You're the last one!"
Liu Shuang nodded calmly, "Very well."
Shen Qiqi grinned at her, revealing two sweet dimples on her cheeks. Others couldn't bear to blame her.
She opened her phone, and there weren't many messages on the green app. She had announced that she was traveling before, so the website editors and author friends were very relieved and didn't bother her much.
Instead, a person she hadn't contacted for a long time sent a message.
Dad: "Your cousin is getting married in a few days, and the whole family will attend the wedding. You should also come. The address is at XXX Hotel, don't be late."
He didn't seem to care about the reply, and after sending the message, there was no follow-up. It was more like a cold notification than an invitation.
She couldn't not come and had to go.
Shen Qiqi stared at the two unfamiliar titles and was slightly surprised. She glanced at the time and realized that the wedding banquet was tomorrow.
She didn't have much impression of this cousin, maybe they played together when they were young, but since she moved out of her family's house, she lost contact with all her relatives.
She hadn't contacted her parents for about five or six years, and when she was invited suddenly, she thought it was a scam...
She thought for a moment and decided to consult Liu Shuang beside her, "Senior sister, I have a relative I haven't contacted for a long time, and he is getting married tomorrow. He invited me to attend. Should I go?"
Liu Shuang leaned lazily on the sofa like a beautiful Persian cat, and said, "It's up to you. If you don't want to go, just forget it."
Shen Qiqi looked at her and suddenly said, "Let's go."
Liu Shuang looked at her inexplicably.
Shen Qiqi held her phone and said triumphantly, "I want to show off my girlfriend to them!"
