Volume 3 Chapter 44 Forming an exploration team
<Previous Chapter<Table of Contents>Next Chapter>
There was something wrong with his body. At first, he thought he was back to normal, but later on he found that it was not the case.
Whenever the sun rose, he would fall into a deep sleep. At this time, he would become the usual Er Dai.
When night came, he would wake up and become Fu Jingshen.
At the beginning, Fu Jingshen firmly believed that Er Dai was just an abnormal personality. When he returned to normal, Er Dai would disappear. Later he found out that things were not like this. Er Dai and him were more like a soul split in half.
If this continued, wouldn’t it be like a split personality?
Just when Fu Jingshen was holding a mangosteen in a daze, Shao Qing had already finished preparing the noodles and brought them out. The snowy white noodles were covered with meat sauce, which looked particularly appetizing.
“Don’t eat yet, wait for me to prepare the other dishes.” Shao Qing instructed Fu Jingshen, then returned to the kitchen and continued cooking.
Fu Jingshen looked at the noodles. For a while, he felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart. He had also once wished to have such a home, someone who would take care of him. After a day of struggling and exhausted from work, when he returned home he would have fresh cooked dishes prepared.
He would sit on the sofa and read his newspaper. She would stick her head out of the kitchen and ask him playfully: “What kind of congee do you want to eat tonight? Green vegetable congee or preserved egg lean meat congee?”
That would make his life complete.
Then when he was at his most desperate, he got everything he fantasized and even more.
He didn’t have to rack his brains to think about how to deal with those relatives with bad intentions or think about how to deal with his half brother who was always thinking about killing him.
Someone was willing to protect him. They didn’t need him to do anything or think about anything.
Fu Jingshen, who was in a state of disarray, took his chopsticks unconsciously and began to taste the noodles. When he reacted, the noodles had gone down halfway.
Fu Jingshen was expressionless, but his heart was saying f**k. Shao Qing told him to wait, but he actually… snuck a bite…
Fu Jingshen guiltily piled up the sauce to cover up the signs of eating. In order to make the noodles look like they were not eaten, he racked his brain and even evened out another bowl of Shao Qing’s noodles.
This way, the two bowls will show a similar amount.
He was really too clever.
Fu Jingshen was silently proud. After his moment of pride, Fu Jingshen wanted to slap himself on the face. Was he affected by Er Dai? He acted completely like Er Dai, his behaviour, his mentality…..
Inflicting serious damage, Fu Jingshen looked at the two bowls of noodles in silence. It was only until Shao Qing finished cooking and called him to help carry it did he move.
Fu Jingshen climbed out from that heavy hit and honestly served the dishes.
Although there were only two people eating, Shao Qing still made four dishes and one soup. However, the portion of each dish was not much.
In this way, even if two people ate four dishes and one soup, nothing will be wasted.
“Drink more soup. It’s very delicious and refreshing.” Shao Qing sat on the sofa and raised her chopsticks when she found that the amount of noodles in the bowl was a bit wrong.
She froze for a moment, then smiled, but didn’t say much.
Probably because of his guilty conscience, when Fu Jingshen was eating, he kept picking items to Shao Qing’s bowl.
Shao Qing was overjoyed. She almost felt like the past two days were only a hallucination. Er Dai usually is dull and slow. After sneaking some food, he wouldn’t even wipe his mouth and was usually just waiting to be caught.
How did this idiot become so smart?
After eating, Shao Qing washed the dishes, took the teaching book, and continued to instruct Fu Jingshen. Fu Jingshen lowered his head, not knowing whether to cry or laugh.
He seemed to have returned to his childhood and was going to kindergarten again. But not to expose himself, he learned earnestly.
He couldn’t show what he already knew and he also had to show how he was seriously studying. This was really a test of his acting skills.
After teaching for a decent amount of time, Shao Qing said to Fu Jingshen: “I’ll take a bath first, can you get me my clothes? I want the black one.”
Then Shao Qing went upstairs, leaving Fu Jingshen standing there dully for a long time. He touched his nose. He was now especially thankful that he was a zombie because zombies have no nosebleeds.
Otherwise, he would definitely spray out a table worth of blood.
At that time it would be really embarrassing.
“Don’t forget to bring me clothes.” Shao Qing shouted again before entering the bathroom. This woke Fu Jingshen up and Fu Jingshen hurried upstairs to get the clothes.
He was obviously a zombie, but he felt that his face was faintly hot. He even almost got it wrong when he went to grab the clothes.
Finally, he found the black pajamas that Shao Qing mentioned. When he grabbed it, a small black panty with lace fell out.
The lace was suspended by the button on the pajama. Fu Jingshen’s face froze and finally when his head tilted up, a trace of blood that was dark black ran down his nose.
Shao Qing should be the only person to make a zombie have a nose bleed.
He quickly wiped off the trace of blood under his nose. Fu Jingshen held the clothes and went outside the bathroom to wait.
The sound of gurgling water was heard in the bathroom, and he couldn’t help but think about something which cannot be described.
“Did you bring the clothes?” Shao Qing asked in a low voice.
“En.” Fu Jingshen responded quickly, then he saw a slit in the bathroom door. A white hand stretched out and he vaguely saw Shao Qing’s delicate skin. White and smooth, reflected under the light, it was extremely beautiful.
Fu Jingshen quickly handed over the clothes, his heart was in a mess. At this time, he suddenly heard Shao Qing asking him: “Didn’t you ask me the other day, who I love more between you and Yan Qiyue? Do you still want to know the answer?”
Fu Jingshen subconsciously said: “Yes…”
Then he was pinched by the snow-white slender hand and pressed against the wall. Shao Qing’s voice was cold: “Who are you! You are not Er Dai!”
Fu Jingshen couldn’t breathe, he just looked at Shao Qing blankly. He didn’t know how he caused Shao Qing’s suspicion, but he knew he was exposed.
In the past, he didn’t speak at all. How could he ask Shao Qing who she loved more?
In Er Dai’s eyes, there was only Shao Qing. He would get jealous, but he rarely expressed his rejection of Yan Qiyue. This was because he knew that Yan Qiyue’s love for Shao Qing was no less than his. He also didn’t think that there was something wrong with two men being with one woman. Thus, how could such Er Dai ask Shao Qing that question and act like a jealous husband.
Me and Yan Qiyue, who do you love more?
He resisted the urge to smile bitterly and looked at Shao Qing with innocent and ignorant eyes. He curled his fingers, not resisting at all.
Shao Qing said coldly: “I have stayed with Er Dai for more than a year. His character, his hobbies, his small movements, everything about him, I know it all.”
“The reason why I did not doubt this before was because no one could replace Er Dai in front of me. However reality tells me that you are indeed not Er Dai.”
Speaking of this, Shao Qing’s voice suddenly sharpened: “Who the hell are you? Where is Er Dai? Where is he!”
Fu Jingshen was very bitter. He always felt that he was Er Dai, the one who Shao Qing loved. The reason why he did not tell Shao Qing that he had recovered his memory was because he was timid and cowardly.
However, Shao Qing told him that he was not the one she cared about…
He clenched his teeth, and in a dull tone, panickedly said: “Ah… Qing…”
When he spoke, his eyes were blank, as if he really didn’t know anything.
Shao Qing’s eyes were totally confused. She ripped open his clothes, then carefully observed the familiar scars on his chest, one after another. It completely overturned her guess.
Shao Qing used her fingertips and gently stroked the scars, not just the look, but the touch was familiar too.
Shao Qing was puzzled. Was her guess wrong?
Just because of a breakthrough, Er Dai can speak, become a little smarter, and behave differently than usual?
Then what’s the matter with his answer?
Shao Qing didn’t know how shocked and in disbelief Fu Jingshen was now. He couldn’t help but stretch out his hand and touch that important part of himself with a look of despair.
Himself.
Not lifted.
Shao Qing, who was in contemplation, also discovered his movements. This time she completely believed that Fu Jingshen was Er Dai because…Er Dai was a zombie. That thing not lifting…. Cough cough…. is normal.
She couldn’t help but open Fu Jingshen’s pants and look at it. After confirming, she released her hand and helplessly hugged Fu Jingshen: “Sorry, I felt that you were a little bit off these two days, you didn’t seem like yourself……”
Fu Jingshen was completely stunned. Even when a warm fragrant jade was at his bosom, he didn’t care about it, he just clutched his waistband tightly.
He felt that after marrying his wife and recovering his memory, he was about to reach the peak of his life, then God would tell him it was just all a big joke.
Shao Qing just thought that Fu Jingshen was terrified, so she took him upstairs. When they walked, she whispered, “Baby, I was wrong, don’t be afraid. Let’s go to bed.”
When they got into the bed, she gently kissed the corners of his eyes. “It will be fine. Wasn’t it the same when you broke through before? This doesn’t mean it can’t go up, it’s just restricted. Maybe it will be fine when you break through the ninth rank.”
Fu Jingshen felt that he was being comforted. He nestled in Shao Qing’s arms and feeling full in his heart, he gradually calmed down.
He can also perceive it. His current situation was very abnormal. He had only faint memories of Er Dai, vague fragments. His memory was probably the same for Er Dai.
They were supposed to be one soul, a complete person, but now they were split into two halves, each with their own consciousness.
So half of it will take the initiative during the day, and the other will take the initiative at night.
“Sleep.” Shao Qing comforted him for a while, then closed her eyes first to go to bed. Fu Jingshen couldn’t sleep. He opened his eyes all night and looked at Shao Qing. He knew, as soon as daylight came, he would fall asleep.
The next day, when Shao Qing got up from the bed and was about to cook something, someone knocked on the door.
Shao Qing lazily walked over to open the door to find that it was Zhu Mochen: “Aren’t you going to see those in power for M country? Why are you back so quickly??”
“Those kinds of talks can be left to the civil officers, we just have to wait.” Zhu Mochen laughed, and then said: “After discussing, the two sides decided to form a team to find the source of the insect disaster.”
“When will we head out?” Shao Qing asked in a low voice.
“Noon today.” Zhu Mochen replied: “We have to meet with the people over here, and then discuss the rest.”
“Okay.” Shao Qing nodded: “I’m preparing to cook, do you want to join?”
“Okay.” Zhu Mochen immediately entered the room and sat down beside the sofa waiting. Shao Qing’s mouth twitched: “Wait for me for a while, I will deal with the dishes first.”
Zhu Mochen immediately said: “Take your time, I’m not in a hurry.”
Shao Qing could only just make a three-person congee, century egg lean meat congee, and one spinach congee.
After they finished eating, Shao Qing sent Zhu Mochen away first, then took Er Dai to find Tang Tiande.
She was definitely going to join this team. Once she left, if something happened to Tang Tiande and his father, water from far away definitely would not be able to save the fire at hand.
Being so far away, she wouldn’t be able to travel back in time.
So before leaving, she had to tell Tang Tiande not to go out as much as possible and stay as low-key as possible. The thing she was worried about shouldn’t happen too soon.
Even if it happens, it is most likely to happen before they leave country M.
But there was always a chance and what would she do if her good brother Tang Tiande died? Where would she cry?

If Shao Qing doesn’t realize the change between Fu Jingsheng and Er Dai, I wonder if Yan Qiyue will, he’s always been more sensitive to other men’s feeling towards her than herself, so maybe he’ll notice that Er Dai has started to share his soul with his previous self at night, that’s specially the time Yan Qiyue and Er Dai spend together the most so maybe he’ll know something’s off.
Thanks for the chapter!
