What To Do If The Heroine Escapes From The Book

Chapter 319: When It's Just The Two Of Us, That's When We're Complete

Chu Ge couldn’t be sure whether he would continue to go back and witness her past, whether he would always be present in her life.

But he felt he could manage it.

It was quite romantic.

Even though Qiu Wuji had no idea for a millennium, she knew now.

Every memory of the past was a romantic moment.

Chu Ge responded in a low voice. “I won’t just accompany you in your past and watch little Qiuqiu grow up, but also in the future, I’ll always be there… Do you think this guy is so annoying?”

Qiu Wuji almost cracked a smile but maintained a straight face. “Of course, he’s really annoying. Doesn’t he give people any personal space?”

Chu Ge reached out to tickle her. “What space? You mean here?”

Qiu Wuji giggled and curled up. “No, there’s no space here.”

“So, is it here…” Chu Ge moved to another spot.

“Hehe, stop it!” Qiu Wuji stopped his mischievous hand and changed the topic awkwardly. “Wanna go out and eat?”

Only then did Chu Ge remember and regretfully said, “I finally got in there, and you didn’t even treat me to something delicious.”

“I already told Xuan Ji to bring something good. It’s your own fault that you ran away faster than a rabbit.” Qiu Wuji got up, blushing as she tried to straighten out her clothes, which Chu Ge had messed up. After a moment’s consideration, she decided not to fix it. This outfit was just an illusion; she could change into her real clothes directly.

“Where are my clothes from before I left?”

Chu Ge was momentarily stunned.

Uh-oh.

He had used spatial teleportation to toss them in the washing machine that day, and then… forgot to hang them out to dry?

They were probably smelly now.

Seeing his expression, Qiu Wuji guessed the situation. Her sweet face instantly turned dark, and she clenched her fists. She went to the balcony and looked outside. Sure enough, a heap of clothes was still in the washing machine, crumpled like a pickled cabbage that had been trampled on.

Qiu Wuji, with a dark expression and clenched teeth, recited slowly, “Chu! Ge! You come over here!”

Chu Ge secretly snapped his fingers, casting a cleaning spell on the clothes.

The clothes were clean, but still wrinkled.

Chu Ge turned and ran.

“Stop right there!” Qiu Wuji turned and chased after him, and Chu Ge scurried with his head in his hands.

The apartment was soon filled with the sound of things crashing, as if the entire building was jumping.

Chu Ge lay on the floor, his eyes spinning, and Qiu Wuji took out her phone and recorded a three-second video, adding a fainting sound effect, and then posted it on Weibo.

Chu Ge: “…”

“Huh?” Qiu Wuji only realized something was amiss after posting on Weibo. “How did our followers count suddenly go up like this? What happened?”

Before Chu Ge could respond, their Weibo began to fill with laughter.

“Is Qiuqiu so violent? Brother Chu is a great hero who can knock down even tall men with a single punch, but he’s been beaten like Tom from Tom and Jerry.”

“He can beat foreigners but can’t beat his wife.”

“Today’s refreshing content is heartwarming.”

“Chu Chu’s dazed look is so cute.”

“Poor Tom, he’s played like a puppet.gif”

Qiu Wuji was bewildered. “So, it’s ‘refreshing content’ and ‘heartwarming’ when you let me hit you?”

Chu Ge said in a low voice, “I look positive when I can beat molestors and protect girls. But people have simple scales in their minds, thinking I allow you to hit me affectionately; after all, they don’t know I can’t really beat you…”

Qiu Wuji: “… Wait, you beat someone? What happened in the few days since I left?”

Chu Ge took the opportunity to get up and said, “The person you fought remotely in Shanghai, I found him.”

Qiu Wuji’s eyes widened. “You beat him? No, I feel like you probably can’t beat him, even if you can, you would likely get injured…”

Chu Ge raised an eyebrow. “Is he really that powerful? Back then, you were only in the foundation building realm that you beat him, right?”

Qiu Wuji shook her head. “I used my ultimate technique and almost depleted my soul energy. Besides, you still haven’t practiced any particularly powerful skills.”

“Is it that impressive? Well, fortunately, he didn’t act, I just beat up his assistant.” Chu Ge roughly explained the situation and ended with, “I sent you a message on WeChat earlier. You can check it out…”

Qiu Wuji examined her WeChat and found Chu Ge’s message: “I’m investigating Robin and happened to meet Gu Ruoyan. We are cooperating, and I’m reporting it.”

She read it two or three times and couldn’t help but smile. “You…”

Chu Ge looked at her with a pitiful expression.

Qiu Wuji’s was not angry with him, and she found him quite cute. Her mood improved as she went to the balcony to tidy up her clothes and smooth out the wrinkles. She sighed and said, “You, what did you do before I came into your life? Did your clothes just rot away without me?”

“I’ve forgotten what life was like without you,” Chu Ge followed her, hugging her waist. “You’ve spoiled me. Even if I could do things before, I’ve forgotten how to do them now…”

“I’m just a little assistant, and I’m bullied by you,” Qiu Wuji pushed him and said, “Alright, alright. Let’s go out and eat some food, okay? Tell me what happened these days. It feels like nothing happens when we’re together, but as soon as I leave, you find yourself in some trouble.”

“Because when it’s just the two of us, that’s when we’re complete! Two swords joining forces, invincible in the world. Even the gods and Buddhas have to keep their distance, and bad luck doesn’t dare to come near us!”

“You’re so full of it.”

Hand in hand, the two of them slowly walked out of the door. Qiu Wuji listened as Chu Ge told her about the stories of the past few days, a smile always on her lips.

When it was just the two of them, that’s when they felt complete.

In the times when he wasn’t with her, she felt like something was missing even on the Cloud Horizon Mountain.

When they had each other, even just walking hand in hand on an ordinary road made them happy.

“Since Robin is most likely the person I fought with back then, we shouldn’t let him compose our animation music,” Qiu Wuji said thoughtfully. “How about I do it myself? According to what you said, I can provide the music, and we can find someone else to compose it. Did you mention this request to the production team? Did they respond?”

“No response,” Chu Ge said. “Actually, I think it’s fine for Robin to do it. Even though we might feel uncomfortable about it, from a different perspective, we can use his fame to promote our animation. He’s the one working for us.”

“Hmph, what if he messes it up?”

“We’ll ask for revisions, after all, the animation company is the client.”

“Then the project could be delayed.”

“Uh… yeah,” Chu Ge scratched his head. “That’s true, I’m not sure if they’ve signed a contract. Should I intervene?”

Qiu Wuji smiled, “Are you sure you have the face to interfere with the operation of an animation company?”

“Well, because the animation company and our publishing site actually share the same owner, I can just talk to him.”

As they were discussing, they overheard snippets of conversations from nearby pedestrians: “Hey, have you heard? They’ve opened a new sea music park, and it sounds really high-end.”

“I heard about it. Many high-society figures will be attending. It’s said to be a venue for internationally renowned musicians.”

“I also heard that the so-called park isn’t a real park. The whole venue is a large yacht floating on the sea. It arrives at fixed times to pick people up and hosts floating music concerts.”

“This sounds so classy. I wonder if the tickets are expensive. Just thinking about it, it feels like it’s going to be a bit bourgeois and elegant inside.”

“It should be very expensive…”

“When does it open?”

“It’s having a trial run the day after tomorrow.”

The couple exchanged a glance.

Chu Ge initially thought that this park would be fine if Lin Wuyang kept an eye on it, but the way people were talking about it made him feel somewhat intrigued. He wasn’t sure if he wanted to investigate the antagonist’s activities or if he was genuinely interested in the upscale atmosphere.

Sitting on a cruise ship with Qiuqiu, feeling the sea breeze on the deck, playing a “you jump, I jump” game, and listening to the piano and saxophone music from inside, it seemed tempting.

They both simultaneously said, “Should we go check it out?”

Then, they fell silent and turned their heads in opposite directions before once again simultaneously saying, “I meant to see if they have any hidden agenda.”

Then they paused and looked at each other with stern expressions, “Why did you say the exact same thing as me?”

An onlooker nearby couldn’t help but comment, “Are you two rehearsing a play?”
