There was no answer. The girl in front of him was still looking at Mr. Su Rui, who was holding her waist, with her cherry lips parted and her face flushed. She didn't say anything, as if she hadn't heard him.
It wasn't until Mr. Su Rui shook her in his arms that the girl, snapping out of her daze, realized she had been staring at Mr. Su Rui for a long time, and she lowered her head, her face completely red.
However, Mr. Su Rui didn't forget his question and continued to ask:
"So, you can see what's different about me, right? What do I look like in your eyes?"
"Ah? I, I'm sorry, you."
The girl stammered, covering her cheeks, and only calmed down after a long while. She stared into Su Rui's eyes, her face flushed:
"In my eyes, you are a very handsome person, radiating a golden, warm light."
"I see." Mr. Su Rui nodded and took out his phone, showing her a picture of himself:
"What's the difference between this and the photo?"
Although Yotsuya Miko didn't understand what Mr. Su Rui wanted to do, she still did as he asked, answering Mr. Su Rui's question:
"The you in the photo doesn't radiate light like the real you."
"So, it's just that spiritual power brings some differences, is that right?"
Mr. Su Rui nodded thoughtfully and put away his phone. "Thank you. Now that that's done, I've finished what I needed to do. Goodbye."
Just as Mr. Su Rui turned around to leave, the girl beside him hurriedly grabbed his sleeve, and he heard the girl's voice, as thin as a mosquito's:
"Please, wait a moment, okay?"
"Is there anything else?" Mr. Su Rui turned his head in confusion, then glanced at the girl's wet skirt. Could it be that she wanted him to help her find a skirt to change into?
Noticing Mr. Su Rui's gaze, the girl became even more shy, but she still endured her shyness and said:
"I'm Yotsuya Miko. Thank you very much for your help. Um, could you, perhaps, exchange contact information with me?"
"Hmm? Do you want me to help you exorcise spirits? I can modify your phone for you, so you won't have to worry about this anymore in the future."
Mr. Su Rui didn't want to exchange contact information, and just held out his hand: "Just a little infusion of spiritual power, and it can be used as a protective charm."
"How long can the protective charm last?"
"It will be consumed each time you kill an evil spirit."
After getting the answer, the girl continued to stare at Mr. Su Rui, her eyes now with a hint of stubbornness: "Please, will you exchange contact information with me?"
Seeming to think that her request was a bit insincere, the girl hesitated for a moment, her cheeks becoming even redder:
"I, I'll do anything."
"Alright." This girl had conquered him with her emotions. Mr. Su Rui helplessly gave out his contact information, and exchanged chat accounts and phone numbers with the girl.
"My name is Su Rui, Su Rui is my given name."
"Are you Yan country person?"
"Yes."
Mr. Su Rui nodded. Although he was a 'black household' in Yan country due to his transmigration, it didn't stop him from claiming that identity, since that's what he was originally.
Yotsuya Miko nodded: "I've heard before that there are many powerful masters in Yan country. I didn't expect it to be true. Even someone as young as you is so amazing."
"Actually, I'm a special case."
Mr. Su Rui didn't care about the girl's praise, and casually added some spiritual power to Yotsuya Miko's phone:
"This spiritual power should be able to protect you for a while. Come find me again when the spiritual power is used up."
Then, before Mr. Su Rui could say goodbye, Yotsuya Miko spoke first: "Please wait a moment, could you help me again?"
"Tell me."
Being stared at by Yotsuya Miko with pleading eyes, Mr. Su Rui nodded. It probably wasn't something that would waste too much time, right? Otherwise, it would affect his cultivation time.
"Could you, perhaps, take me to change my clothes? I can't, really walk anymore."
Yotsuya Miko crossed her legs and looked at Mr. Su Rui with a pitiful expression. She really couldn't walk anymore, due to the fright she had just experienced, as well as the embarrassment of accidentally wetting her skirt and shoes.
If she could, Yotsuya Miko wished she could dig a hole and hide in it.
"...Alright, come with me."
Mr. Su Rui still nodded: "I'll take you to where I live. There are women's clothes there too."
"Eh? Okay."
As soon as Yotsuya Miko finished speaking, Mr. Su Rui picked her up in a princess carry.
The girl in his arms tensed up, her cheeks flushed red, seemingly thinking of something strange because of Mr. Su Rui's words.
As for Mr. Su Rui, since he had walked out on foot, after picking up the girl, he directly moved between the buildings of the city, using spiritual power to condense wings to propel himself, and soon arrived at a European-style castle-like manor.
"Is this... your residence? How amazing."
Yotsuya Miko in his arms exclaimed. Mr. Su Rui nodded indifferently. Anyway, it was given to him by someone else. He could only say that it suited his aesthetic.
After Mr. Su Rui first transmigrated, he originally wanted to go to Yan country, but the identity verification system there was very complete, and a 'black household' like him would easily be regarded as a stowaway.
Not wanting to cause trouble, Mr. Su Rui thought of Neon, because Neon's bureaucracy, although cumbersome, didn't have such troublesome identity verification, or rather, it was very lax.
First of all, not all countries have ID cards. Almost only Yan country, and maybe a few other countries, use ID cards.
Countries such as the US and Neon actually use driver's licenses, student IDs, or other certificates with some kind of professional nature to prove their identity.
This also meant that there were many places where one could manipulate things.
However, Mr. Su Rui was relatively lazy and directly found the Si Gong family, a large Neon financial group.
After using his spiritual power to make the Si Gong family's old head, who was bedridden, younger by more than ten years, he asked the other party to help arrange a place to live.
Now, Mr. Su Rui's identity, this castle, and the wealth in his card, were actually all given to him by the Si Gong family head.
It also included the blonde, blue-eyed maid in front of him, as well as the black-haired girl who was staring at him with red eyes.
"I'm back, Hayasaka, and Kaguya Shinomiya."
After greeting the two girls in front of him, Mr. Su Rui put Yotsuya Miko in his arms down and instructed:
"Her clothes are a bit wet, help her change into a clean set."
"Yes, Master." The blonde maid Hayasaka Ai bowed respectfully to Mr. Su Rui, then glanced at Si Gong family's young lady, who was both her friend and her master.
The black-haired girl was staring intently at Yotsuya Miko, who had been brought back by Mr. Su Rui, clutching the hem of her clothes, but just not speaking.
'I can't help you that much, young lady.'
Hayasaka Ai sighed in her heart, and still asked the question for Kaguya Shinomiya.
"May I ask who this young lady is...?"
"I just happened to meet her and helped her a little."
As soon as Mr. Su Rui finished speaking, Yotsuya Miko also hurriedly replied: "Yes, Mr. Su Rui saved me and brought me back..."
