Chapter 63: The Third Teleportation

“Stay, okay?”

For a man, these few words were as tempting as a beautiful woman stripping naked and lying in front of him, inviting him to come.

Wei Ziqing was a man, and he had his own needs!

However, smelling the scent of alcohol on Su Lingya and seeing her drunken, hazy expression, he thought about their relationship. In the end, he could not let desire swallow his reason.

Staying was certainly not a problem, and he was very willing to do so.

But what about after tomorrow?

How would he face her? Did she truly want him to stay, or was it merely a momentary need and an infusion of passion?

“Hmm, get some good rest. We can talk about anything tomorrow. You have been tired these past few days!” He gently pried Su Lingya’s hand open, tucked her in properly, and then, without looking at her disappointed gaze, he slowly left and closed the door.

Standing at Su Lingya’s door and looking at the closed entrance, Wei Ziqing gave a helpless, bitter smile.

He had finally acted as a virtuous man for once!

The night grew deep!

Wei Ziqing shook off the romantic thoughts in his heart and turned back to rest.

At the end of last month, it happened to be the weekend, so Wei Ziqing had taken a day off from Tiger Tooth. Now, it was time to go back to work.

As usual, as soon as he arrived at the company, he encountered Tiger Tooth, who looked dissatisfied. Wei Ziqing could only smile awkwardly; of course, he knew why Tiger Tooth was angry.

However, there was no other way. After all, there was no way he could have said he wouldn’t go to other worlds during those three days. For now, he pretended to see nothing and kept his head down to deal with that group of authors who had no professional integrity.

But because of this, Wei Ziqing suddenly realized that he was no longer suited for a regular job. After all, from now on, he would have to ask for leave every month. What company could tolerate that?

He just didn’t have a good way to solve this problem right now, so he could only stay here for the time being.

“Hey, Wei Ziqing, what’s wrong with you lately? You look much older. It can’t be that you’re single at night and masturbating too much, right?” The editor next to him, nicknamed Dragonfly, nudged Wei Ziqing and started teasing him.

Dragonfly then pretended to be earnest and said in a drawn-out tone, “This won’t do. A youth who doesn’t know the value of his seed will weep in old age when he finds himself empty. You must be moderate!”

Uh!

Several black lines suddenly appeared across Wei Ziqing’s face. What kind of people were these? Could they speak so directly? Where was their sense of propriety?

He immediately pushed Dragonfly’s hand away in dissatisfaction and said with contempt, “Get lost! Don’t think I’m like you. I’ve just been a bit tired lately!”

Although he said this, Wei Ziqing’s heart sank.

Dragonfly was indeed correct. He had clearly noticed that his appearance was becoming older and older.

Two worlds and six years of time had passed. In the eyes of others, he was still a twenty-one-year-old youth, but in reality, he was already twenty-seven.

When he returned from the next world, he would be thirty.

In a few years in reality, he would become a fragile old man. Was this truly the only way for him?

“It seems that starting from the next world, I must seize every opportunity to solve the problem of my aging and my financial situation in reality.”

Wei Ziqing murmured softly. Whether it was the issue of lifespan, money, his parents, or the conspiracy surrounding him, everything had become urgent.

…

After returning home, as soon as he stepped into the elevator, he saw Su Lingya, who had also returned from work and was preparing to open her door.

Su Lingya froze slightly, but not a hint of panic appeared on her face. With a smile, she greeted Wei Ziqing, “Off work too?”

“Yeah!” Wei Ziqing smiled slightly. Su Lingya clearly did not remember that she had been drunk and asked him to stay the previous night. This was for the best, as it saved him from embarrassment.

As for the matter of Brother Yang, the two of them shared a tacit understanding and neither mentioned it. After all, the event had passed, and Su Lingya knew that Brother Yang’s death was definitely the work of Wei Ziqing.

Walls had ears. If others heard about it, the matter would not be so easily solved!

“By the way, I bought some groceries today. You’re alone too, so come over to my place for a meal. It’s livelier with two people!” Su Lingya waved the groceries in her hand. Only then did Wei Ziqing realize that Su Lingya had actually bought food.

After hesitating slightly, he nodded, “Then make a bit more. I’ve been getting hungry easily lately, and I’m afraid I won’t have enough!”

Pfft!

Hearing this, Su Lingya gave Wei Ziqing a sidelong glance, “Are you a pig or something? I won’t let you go hungry; there will be plenty!”

Perhaps realizing the conversation was becoming a bit ambiguous, a flush appeared on Su Lingya’s face. She hurriedly said, “Anyway, go get ready quickly, then come over for dinner!” After saying this, she rushed into her house as if fleeing in panic.

Wei Ziqing touched his nose, not quite sure what was wrong with Su Lingya, but he turned back to his own room, washed up briefly, and rested for a while.

There was no need to go over too early. He waited until the time was right before heading over.

He knocked on the door and entered after hearing Su Lingya’s voice from inside.

“You’re here. Come, the food is ready. Sit down, I’ll get the bowls and chopsticks.” Su Lingya was wearing an apron and was wiping her hands. In this state, she seemed less glamorous but more virtuous, possessing a different kind of domestic beauty.

“Okay, thanks for the trouble!” Wei Ziqing did not stand on ceremony and sat down directly. Three dishes and one soup were quite ordinary, but they were very exquisite, which whetted Wei Ziqing’s appetite.

Soon, Su Lingya brought a bowl of rice for Wei Ziqing. Wei Ziqing didn’t hold back; he said he was starting to eat and began to dig in impatiently.

Truthfully, Wei Ziqing felt that Su Lingya was not simple. Not only was she beautiful, but the food was simply irresistible. He completely forgot about his gentlemanly manners.

Seeing that Wei Ziqing liked her cooking so much, Su Lingya smiled softly. However, she said nothing, only looking at Wei Ziqing with a strange look in her eyes.

“Actually, this is quite nice, isn’t it?” Thinking about last night’s events, Su Lingya murmured in her heart, though she complained to Wei Ziqing, “Eat slower. There’s a whole pot of rice; no one is fighting you for it!”

The meal left Wei Ziqing feeling completely satisfied. He vowed that from today on, he would find a way to get free meals here. Compared to the takeout food outside, it was like heaven and earth!

After the meal, the two of them chatted about daily life for a while. Seeing that it was getting late, Wei Ziqing returned to his own home. After all, staying at a beautiful woman’s house late at night was ultimately not appropriate.

In the following days, Wei Ziqing’s life became somewhat different. He worked during the day and occasionally went to Su Lingya’s place for meals in the evening, but he spent most of his time locked in his room watching movies.

It couldn’t be helped. The Anywhere Door took him to different worlds, but he had forgotten most of the anime, novels, and movies. He had to refresh his memory on many of them, as his advantage was his foresight.

However, the workload was quite large. After a month, the movies he watched were still far from enough. Finally, on the last day of the month, just after he finished watching the latest anime “The Degenerate Drawing of Jianghu,” the Anywhere Door arrived as expected.

“Finally, it’s here?” Looking at the Anywhere Door, Wei Ziqing took a deep breath, equipped his Gentleman Sword, and then opened the door and stepped inside!
