A lot has indeed changed.

From the beginning, I had a guilty conscience and wanted to run away, to teaching Xu Qing martial arts and then being unable to resist, to expecting him to lie to me...

Just like a string getting tighter and tighter, it broke even tighter and tighter. After drinking on New Year's Eve, it snapped.

From passive to active, it only takes a thought, but it is a qualitative change.

People have more than just survival needs.

Jiang He hugged the pillow and fell into deep thought after listening to Xu Qing's words. Xiaoyan on the other side did not do his homework, but played with the small paws of the winter melon.

"Xiaoyan will be a big star in the future?"

Xu Qing got up and went to the sink to brush her teeth. When she came back, she took Jiang He's little hand and played with it, not forgetting to talk to Xiao Yan who was playing with her little claws.

"Yes! I want to be a star and go on TV!" Xiaoyan was full of confidence, pointing at the TV and said: "You will be able to see me on TV in the future!"

"It's amazing... To be a star, you have to study hard, otherwise you will be laughed to death if you even admit the wrong words."

Xu Qing scratched around in Jiang He's palm and wrote the names of two people with his fingers. Suddenly he was surprised to find: "Hey, both of our names are Shishihua."

"Ah?" Jiang He felt itchy in his palms and didn't understand what he meant.

"It's fate~"

With a sigh of relief, the girl was finally willing to let go of her little hand and sit on the other side to teach Xiaoyan how to do her homework.

"How many paintings is my name?" Xiaoyan asked.

"You..."

Shi Yanyan...Xu Qing pondered for a moment: "More than the two of us combined."

"so smart?!"

"Yeah, it's really awesome."

Xu Qing complained, "Have you ever been punished by a teacher for copying your name?"

"No."

"One day you will be punished and you will realize that you are super powerful."

Xiaoyan stared at her big, confused eyes and thought for a moment before shaking her head, "I don't want to be punished by copying my name!"

The name is so difficult to write. If she is punished by copying it a hundred times... She lowered her head and looked at her winter vacation homework.

It is more difficult to write than homework.

"How do you become a star?" Jiang He listened to them and was thinking about what he could learn.

Here, except for her useless martial arts, she knows nothing else, no insight, no knowledge, no skills...

People abandoned by the times.

The only thing he can do is to show his face on the Internet like Xu Qing said, like that handicraft man, and shoot some short videos of sword playing, but it may not be popular or not.

'There is a high probability that it will be popular...'

This is what Xu Qing said that day.

'The choice of whether to do it or not is up to you. I won't interfere. I just need to consider it carefully. You don't know enough about this place. There is no need to make a choice in a hurry. For you and me? Destiny is wonderful...'

Xu Qing gave her a lot of freedom under the conditions within his ability.

Being able to access the Internet is the greatest freedom. Is what Xu Qing said true or false? Jiang He can check it by himself? Then make his own choice.

After spending the initial period of time, did she understand the general situation of this society? She was still able to hand herself over to the country and clearly prove that she was from Kaiyuan, instead of being hostile to everything as when she first came, and then being regarded as mentally abnormal.

Dangerous elements clashed with violent organizations.

If the police were called in from the beginning, even if there was no conflict, even if those people believed that she was from Kaiyuan, then the rest of the matter would only develop according to other people's wishes - this is the biggest difference.

A road can change direction at any time? Xu Qing just said? It's up to her whether to listen or not. Handing yourself over to show your identity is always an option. She can change her mind and choose another road at any time.

...Once you choose another path, will you go all the way to the dark side? You will never be able to return to your current life.

This is her greatest freedom. She doesn’t have to worry about food, clothing, housing and transportation. She can slowly understand this era and then make a choice.

Even if Xu Qing tried to have feelings for her intentionally or unintentionally, that was the price she had to pay - no one owed her anything, and while enjoying her freedom, she had to endure something.

And Xu Qing didn't force her.

Is this the best of all possibilities? She's long since realized this.

Destiny is wonderful...

Jiang He's eyes fell on Xu Qing's lips? Everything started because of that mouth.

'It's getting dark, and it looks like the rain won't stop for a while...'

In the dead of night, she would often think of Xu Qing's appearance and words holding an umbrella.

"Celebrities are on TV!" Xiaoyan pointed at the TV and explained, wondering why Jiang He didn't even know this.

"Stars are just singing, dancing and acting. For a character like Cheng Dieyi, if some people like her, she is a star, but if no one likes her, she is a star..."

Xu Qing's lips moved slightly, and she explained in much more detail than Xiaoyan, "The main roles in the movies we watched were all played by celebrities."

After a pause, he looked at Xiaoyan and said, "Can you sing?"

"……Won't."

"Can you dance?"

"I can twist my butt!" Xiaoyan said.

"Sister Jiang He can do it too." Xu Qing smiled.

"I won't!"

Jiang He was angry and stared at his lips, wanting to bite him.

"I can't sing or dance, so I can only act..." Xu Qing said, noticing Jiang He's gaze, he slowly stopped talking, raised his hand to touch his mouth, and turned his face away unexpectedly.

I have never heard of such a thing being addictive.

"What if you don't know how to act?"

"Be an idol."

"I want to be an idol!" Xiaoyan declared her wish loudly.

"What about you?" Xu Qing asked Jiang He.

"I...what am I?"

Jiang He put down the pillow in his arms, stood up, and walked away.

Inexplicably, I felt like this guy was teasing my daughter, and I didn't want to talk to him.

The afternoon was spent between Xiaoyan and Donggua playing around and doing homework. Xu Qing held his laptop to check the wind direction in other sections of the Xiaopo station, and considered whether to open a small account to test the waters.

Jiang He tidied up the living room and carried the laundry to the balcony washing machine. He paused when he saw Xu Qing's straw sandals on the bedside, glanced back at Xu Qing, and secretly carried them to the balcony to wash them again.

"What are you doing?"

"I-I'm washing my shoes."

"Why are you washing my shoes?"

"This is mine." Jiang He was a little confused holding the straw sandals.

"You gave it to me, it's mine." Xu Qing felt funny when he saw her sneaky look, "Put it down."

When he woke up in the morning of the second day of junior high school and found that the shoes in the living room had slipped under his bed again, he gave up explaining.

"Wash it to make it cleaner."

Jiang He sped up his movements and controlled his strength with the brush, fearing that he would damage it and Xu Qing would plot against the one she was wearing.

"The socks I bought for you are coming soon, and I will buy you a pair of high heels. Do you prefer white or black? I like red soles..."

Xu Qing picked up the phone and asked.

"I don't like it either."

"Then I'll buy whatever I want, a pair of white shoes and black shoes."

"..."
