Chapter 3356: You’ve Drunk Dishwater Before?
“…You’ve drunk dishwater before?” Mei Ziqing looked at her.
“It just doesn’t taste very good,” Ning Shu pouted.
“This bowl of soup is the most expensive dish on this table,” Mei Ziqing said.
Hearing that, Ning Shu didn’t waste it and took another sip, smacking her lips again. “Now it doesn’t seem like dishwater anymore.”
She asked Mei Ziqing, “Have you done any tasks recently?”
“No, I’m resting. I don’t want to go for now. I feel weak all over. Doing tasks is dangerous, so I’ll rest a bit longer.”
Mei Ziqing spoke casually while eating.
Ning Shu let out an “Oh,” then asked, “Have you been comprehending the ordinances all this time?”
“Yeah, whenever I have nothing else to do. There are so many cities in the ordinance space after all.”
Ning Shu: …
She felt like Mei Ziqing was really letting herself go.
And honestly, Ning Shu also planned to loosen up for a while.
She felt like she had gained quite a lot this time, with some things already taking root in her heart.
Although she didn’t yet know what they were, she had already gained some insight.
Ning Shu finished the soup in one gulp and then chatted with Mei Ziqing about various gossip.
Looking at Mei Ziqing, Ning Shu felt that this woman was already her friend.
Mei Ziqing had appeared when she was troubled.
Having a friend like this in life was enough—someone to lend a hand in difficult times. That was enough.
There was no need to swear loyalty unto death, just a simple and steady friendship, nothing too intense.
A true friendship required no guarantees.
“What cities have you visited?” Ning Shu propped her chin up and asked.
“Too many to count. I’ve given up on trying to improve. I’ll just have fun as long as I can, and when I don’t feel like having fun anymore, I’ll focus on tasks.” Mei Ziqing grinned.
Ning Shu: Uh…
Maybe she should take it easy too…
She should slow down a little.
This inner demon incident had exposed the weak side of her heart.
Forcing herself so much—wasn’t that also a kind of fear and cowardice?
Fear of being erased, of suddenly disappearing, of becoming that child lying in a hospital bed again.
Or maybe, this was all just a dream, and nothing was real.
The struggle and helplessness of the weak.
Having the opportunity to become strong, she couldn’t let those who had nothing to do with her become sacrifices under her power.
Ning Shu vaguely understood the core of the water ordinance—no matter what form water took, it was life itself.
It nurtured all things, making no distinctions between high and low.
The highest virtue is like water—kindness!!!
This was the path of water.
Ning Shu and Mei Ziqing finished every last bite of food on the table.
In their soul state, they directly absorbed the energy from the food, so there was no such thing as overeating.
Ning Shu paid the bill, spending nearly five hundred merit points.
She didn’t even blink as she handed over the money.
Mei Ziqing looked at her. “Let’s go AA?”
“It’s fine, I’m letting myself go now. Money is just an external thing.”
Ning Shu looked up at the sky as if she were about to ascend, becoming an immortal. The mortal world was too filthy, tainting her pure soul.
“Oh, want to go mess around at the auction house? But the entry fee alone is five hundred merit points.”
“Shit, why didn’t you say so earlier? If I’d known, I wouldn’t have eaten—I would’ve gone straight to the auction house!” Ning Shu immediately said. “I’ve never been to an auction before.”
Relaxing a bit wouldn’t hurt.
