Prodigal System in the Flourishing City

Chapter 978: Chapter 976: Preparing to Depart

Sun Wanqi was momentarily stunned by Lu Xiaobu’s question, then she thought he had misunderstood, so she explained:

”Don’t overthink it, I’m not a Japanophile, or trying to oppose you. It’s just that this global tour was scheduled a long time ago, and I actually wanted to cancel it. But just yesterday, there was a big earthquake in Japan, so I couldn’t cancel it!”

She was also quite helpless, knowing that Lu Xiaobu had just burned down the Jingguo Shrine and the national sentiment against Japan was at its peak.

Both emotionally and rationally, she shouldn’t go!

However, just yesterday, a big earthquake swept through Japan.

Now, she has to go; if she doesn’t, the whole world would point fingers and scold her, and even her own country might curse her.

So, when Lu Xiaobu asked, she felt a bit helpless.

”That’s not important.” Lu Xiaobu waved his hand and said, with a slight smile at the corner of his mouth, ”What I mean is, could you take me with you?”

”What are you going to do there?” Sun Wanqi was immediately terrified, her old dialect slipping out from her mouth.

Lu Xiaobu had set the Jingguo Shrine on fire before; all of Japan sees him as a thorn in their side, let alone allowing him to enter the country. It’s utmost generosity that they haven’t sent someone to assassinate him.

Of course, the fact that they can’t defeat him is a consideration; this is the Heavenly Dynasty, and they can’t manage large-scale assassinations, nor can they handle small ones.

But now Lu Xiaobu actually wants to go to Japan again?

Are you crazy?! Or is Japan crazy?!

”Don’t worry about it, just say whether or not it’s possible.” Lu Xiaobu waved his hand, too lazy to explain.

”Well...” Sun Wanqi frowned, thinking for a moment, then agreed: ”Fine, whether I take you or not, you have to promise me three conditions!”

”Go ahead.” Lu Xiaobu nodded.

”First, regarding your identity, if you plan to enter Japan as Lu Xiaobu, it’s not just about whether I take you; they might just execute you on the spot!” Sun Wanqi said gently.

”Of course.” Lu Xiaobu nodded in agreement.

”Second, whatever happens there, you can’t hide it from me. Since I’m the one taking you there, I have the right to know!” Sun Wanqi continued.

”This...” Lu Xiaobu furrowed his brows, looking quite hesitant.

”What? You don’t trust me?” Sun Wanqi’s face suddenly turned cold: ”Are you afraid I’ll inform Japan?”

This distrust was the biggest insult to her.

She hadn’t even asked what Lu Xiaobu was going to do yet agreed to take him!

And now, Lu Xiaobu didn’t trust her!

”Don’t get me wrong, I’m not worried about you informing them; I’m worried you won’t understand.” Lu Xiaobu shook his head, explaining earnestly.

”Oh, so that’s it, then it’s fine.” Sun Wanqi’s expression improved a bit.

Then.

The next second, her expression froze, and she gritted her teeth at Lu Xiaobu: ”So you’re saying I’m stupid?”

”I admire this about you, having such self-awareness.” Lu Xiaobu nodded seriously.

”You! Lu Xiaobu, you jerk!” Sun Wanqi was so angry that she almost jumped up to hit him.

What do you mean by having self-awareness?

Are you saying I am indeed stupid?

Lu Xiaobu, you bastard!

No, I can’t lose my temper, I can’t!

”Just tell me, that’ll be my problem!” Sun Wanqi gritted her teeth and said.

”Alright then.” Lu Xiaobu shrugged: ”What’s the third thing?”

”The third thing is to help me write a new song.” Sun Wanqi suddenly grew a bit nervous.

Compared to the first two conditions, this one was the only beneficial condition for her.

After all, all of Lu Xiaobu’s songs so far were classics.

Yes, including that embarrassing song that she was forced to sing every day, ”Learning to Meow!”

”I’m too tired, not writing.” Lu Xiaobu rolled his eyes.

”Name your terms!” Sun Wanqi straightened her body, looking like she was ready for a duel.

”Catwoman.” Lu Xiaobu squinted, chuckling, as his eyes scanned Sun Wanqi up and down, imagining her in a Catwoman outfit.

”Impossible!” Sun Wanqi gritted her teeth in fury.

Her fans mostly only asked her to sing ”Learning to Meow.” But Lu Xiaobu dared to suggest a bunny girl outfit?!

Lu Xiaobu: ”Fine, I won’t touch, okay?”

Sun Wanqi: ”No! Way!”

She’s about to explode, what does that even mean? Does he originally plan to touch?!

Lu Xiaobu: ”I’ll concede one more step, only I get to see it!”

Sun Wanqi: ”Still no!”

Tell me honestly! Aren’t you planning to livestream it?!

Lu Xiaobu: ”Don’t push it, I’ll take one last step back, no photos, no keepsakes, how about that?”

Sun Wanqi: ”Lu Xiaobu, go to hell!!!”

She grabbed a cushion from the couch and threw it!

Damn the ladylike image, forget it!

This Lu Xiaobu is simply a jerk!

In his mind, a simple bunny girl outfit means touching, livestreaming, and taking souvenirs?!

To hell with you, Lu Xiaobu, you’re too much!!!

”I’m leaving, you go to Japan on your own!” Sun Wanqi stood up with a cold face, heading for the door.

It was you who asked me to take you to Japan, now you’re making it seem like I begged you!

”The plain clay paints the blue flowers with bold strokes turning light ”The peony on the bottle depicts your first makeup ”The rising sandalwood fragrance passes through the window, my thoughts are clear ”The writing on the rice paper paused halfway

Lu Xiaobu hummed a tune casually, not stopping Sun Wanqi.

But Sun Wanqi’s steps halted immediately, and her face showed an expression of keen listening.

Moreover, this expression was expanding.

What song is this?

What a good song! Absolutely a good song!

And it’s a folk style, exactly her main focus.

It’s just perfect!

So, Sun Wanqi stepped back and sat down again.

”Huh? Still haven’t left? Sister Lan, see her out.” Lu Xiaobu said, crossing his legs.

”After returning from Japan!”

Sun Wanqi gritted her teeth and said something completely unrelated.

”Alright, I’m in no rush.” Lu Xiaobu laughed instantly.

The Queen of Heaven in a Catwoman outfit, how exciting!

”Then I’m leaving! We leave the day after tomorrow, don’t be late.” Sun Wanqi turned to leave, gritting her teeth.

But as she turned, a sly smile appeared on the corner of her mouth—Garfield is also a cat! Hehehe! Don’t blame me, I learned from you!

Sun Wanqi left.

”Sister Lan, help me prepare a fake identity, we’re heading to Japan!” Lu Xiaobu called out to arrange.

You little devils, bet you didn’t expect this! Your grandpa is coming again! Hahaha! Kneel down and welcome me!
