Xu Zisheng raised his right wrist. To others, his wrist appeared clean and fair, with no marks whatsoever.
But in his own eyes, no matter how much that black crescent moon mark was concealed, he could still see the dark, profound imprint with perfect clarity, like the deepest of nights.
"Xu Zisheng? Are you okay?" Seeing Xu Zisheng spacing out again, [Gui Yi] stopped walking and asked with so concern.
He had no idea how long Xu Zisheng would be staying here. He definitely couldn't report that pyramid sche organization to the authorities in front of him.
Regarding the situation he had encountered, Xiao Gui'an didn't want Xu Zisheng to know about it at all.
He could handle it himself—why create additional complications?
If it weren't for him, Xu Zisheng wouldn't have co to this city in the first place. Making him deal with the lies Xiao Gui'an had casually spun that had sohow beco reality—Xiao Gui'an wasn't that heartless.
"I'm fine." Xu Zisheng suppressed the ominous premonition in his heart. The two turned the corner and entered a mobile phone specialty store.
A warm, friendly smile appeared on Xu Zisheng's face, the kind that made people feel favorable toward him at first glance and instinctively let their guard down.
That polite, good-tempered deanor was like a mask deeply etched onto his surface.
Whenever Xu Zisheng faced the world or other people, his expression always made others feel like they were bathing in spring breeze—approachable, yet always carrying a faint sense of detachnt.
Xiao Gui'an witnessed Xu Zisheng's transformation. He remained silent for a mont, then pretended to know nothing as he walked in side by side with him.
A custor who was gentle, good at conversation, and exceptionally good-looking was always welco. The store staff enthusiastically gathered around.
Although Gui Yi's appearance was sowhat disheveled, guided by Xu Zisheng's conversational skills, the staff subconsciously overlooked the oddities about Gui Yi.
A phone costing several thousand yuan—Xu Zisheng paid for it without even blinking.
After inputting his own number into the new phone, Xu Zisheng handed it to Gui Yi. "Don't break this one next ti."
"Okay, okay!" [Gui Yi] nodded, holding the phone in his hands as if he had obtained a priceless treasure, his eyes shining brightly.
"So, what are your plans next?"
Because he had overslept, causing Xu Zisheng to travel across half of Country Z to check on him, Xiao Gui'an felt slightly embarrassed.
"Hmm—" Xu Zisheng humd thoughtfully as he pondered.
It was naturally best that [Gui Yi] was fine. This trip wouldn't be a wasted effort then.
But since he was already here, he might as well treat it as a ntal break for himself.
The scenery in Chuancheng was supposedly quite nice. Having Gui Yi act as a guide or sothing should make for an interesting experience.
"I've already taken ti off work. Since I've co all this way, how about you be my tour guide? Show around Chuancheng."
[Gui Yi] had no reason to refuse, nor any grounds to do so.
[System, system, quickly find so worthwhile places to visit in Chuancheng!!!]
"Of course! I know this place really well! And I happen to be on break recently with no classes." The black-haired youth nodded, putting on a "leave it to " expression.
As it turned out, when a Chosen One of Fate gave their word, it was as unretractable as a team of four horses.
He truly didn't busy himself with other matters, but focused seriously on having fun, even booking a room in a hotel near [Gui Yi]'s place to rest.
Thus, Xiao Gui'an finally got to experience another profession—serving as Xu Zisheng's professional tour guide for a day and a half.
Special comndation should be given here to the Proxy System. Though it lagged, its travel guides were quite well-prepared.
During this ti, Xiao Gui'an also reported the pyramid sche organization to the relevant authorities.
Whether it was the Horror Investigation Bureau of this district or the branch departnts of [Tianji]—basically anyone who had even the slightest connection—Xiao Gui'an contacted them all.
Fortunately, this ti the Proxy System was relatively reliable, erasing all official attempts to track and locate him, leaving them unable to determine his specific identity.
The only minor mix-up was when police officers showed up at his door. Luckily, with Xu Zisheng's help, he successfully explained the situation, proving [Gui Yi]'s status as a law-abiding citizen and avoiding any potential trip to the police station.
Xiao Gui'an reviewed everything that had happened over these two and a half days and felt his luck had been fairly good. Holding the freshly bought dorayaki in his hand, he entered the shop, planning to go with Xu Zisheng to the next tourist spot.
But as soon as he entered the shop and made eye contact with Xu Zisheng, the other person suddenly "whoosh"—vanished right before his eyes. The seat was instantly empty.
Xiao Gui'an: ???
Wait, where's the Chosen One of Fate?
Where's my big Chosen One of Fate?!
He just disappeared with a "whoosh"!!
