Chapter 509 Return to Winter Capital
"Girl, why did you buy such small clothes? Neither of us can wear them, right?"
Liu Bai curiously picked up the newly bought baby clothes and asked Nashida.
Even if Nashida turned back into her younger form, she wouldn't be able to wear this dress.
"Hehe, I won't tell you. You will know it after a while."
Nashida stuck out her tongue, deliberately keeping the question in suspense.
"I'll forget about it after a while..."
Liu Bai said weakly.
"No, I will always remind you."
As Nashida spoke, she took Liu Bai's arm and rested her head on her shoulder.
In the past, when doing this action, her head could only rest on Liu Bai's upper arm, but now, by maintaining the shape of a girl, she can put it on his shoulder.
"Ok."
Liu Bai had no choice but to nod his head.
Then Nashida took Liu Bai to continue buying new things. The next thing to buy was some toys.
Although Nashida can use dreams to create any item, as before, she generally only creates things that are immediately needed or difficult to obtain. As for items that can be easily bought with Mora, she still prefers to go out and buy them herself. After all, the process of doing anything is also a kind of pleasure.
Just like when I fought with Liu Bai at night.
……
In this way, more than a month passed quickly.
On this day, when Liu Bai was on his way to the Adventurer's Association, he suddenly received a message from Catherine from Zhidong.
The message was simple, asking Liu Bai to return to Zhidong as soon as he was free, because a memorial service would be held soon for the executive officer who died heroically.
"Girl, let's go to the feast!"
When Liu Bai got the news, his eyes lit up and he hurried back home to tell Nashida.
"Okay, shall we... woo?"
Nashida nodded in response, but suddenly felt a little uncomfortable. She subconsciously raised her hand to cover her mouth and retched.
"Girl?"
Liu Bai came closer with some concern.
"I'm fine..."
Nashida shook her head, and Liu Bai reached out and touched her forehead.
"Hmm? You don't seem to be sick, do you?"
Touching Nashida's forehead, Liu Bai tilted his head in confusion.
"I'm fine, just a little nauseous."
Nashida grabbed Liu Bai's hand that was touching her forehead, held it in her arms and explained.
"Well, girl, if you don't have an appetite, we won't go to the banquet."
Liu Bai nodded and gave up the idea of going back for the banquet.
"No need, and what kind of seat is it?"
Nashida shook her head slightly, then asked curiously. After all, Liu Bai hadn't said where he was from.
"That's it."
Liu Bai immediately explained the memorial service to Nashida.
"I see. It seems she hasn't been discovered..."
"But you may not be able to attend this memorial service. But let's go back and take a look."
After listening to Liu Bai's explanation, Nashida muttered something and said to Liu Bai.
"Okay, let's go, girl~"
Liu Bai couldn't wait to go back for the banquet.
Nashida nodded, released the hands that were in her arms, and helped Liu Bai activate the earth vein transmitter above.
With the activation of the earth vein transmitter, the two disappeared from Inazuma together.
When he reappeared, he had arrived at the teleportation anchor point on the street of Winterfell.
This place is not far from the houses rented by Liu Bai, and the memorial service will not start for a few days, so they are not in a hurry to go to the Winter Palace.
"..."
"Girl, have we gone the wrong way?"
Looking at the three-story but extremely luxuriously decorated small western-style building in front of him, Liu Bai blinked blankly.
"It's this street, for sure. Look, those houses next to it are also rented by you. They are exactly the same as before."
Nashida raised her hand and pointed at the houses nearby as a reminder.
This street is a relatively remote place in Zhidong City, and the houses are quite old. Liu Bai once used his salary to rent the old houses on this entire street.
"I feel like we've taken the wrong path. Let's just live next door."
Liu Bai looked at the familiar old houses around him, then looked at the three-story villa in front of him, and finally pulled Nashida without hesitation and walked towards the old house next to him.
As soon as he entered the house, Liu Bai walked over familiarly and turned on the heater, then sat down on the cushion next to the heater and stretched out his hands to warm them by the fire.
As soon as winter came and he saw the fireplace, he started to feel cold again.
Seeing this, Nashida also moved closer, sat down next to Liu Bai, and stretched out her hands to warm themselves by the fire.
For her now, when she has nothing to do, hanging out with Liu Bai is the happiest way to pass the time.
It's much the same for Liu Bai.
"Girl, what are we going to eat for lunch? Shall we go for barbecue? Barbecue in winter seems to be delicious."
Liu Bai rubbed his head against Nashida's and asked.
"Well, the barbecue is a bit oily, and I suddenly want to eat something sour."
Nashida hesitated for a moment, shook her head and rejected Liu Bai's proposal.
"Sour...? Then let's eat pickled fish? I wonder if there's a store selling it here..."
Liu Bai thought about it and proposed again.
"Sour fish is a bit oily, I can't eat too much."
When Nashida heard about pickled fish, she thought it was quite good, but she still hesitated.
"Don't worry, girl. You don't have a big appetite anyway, so I'll take care of the leftovers."
Liu Bai immediately patted his chest.
"I'm going to hit you, but I won't give it to you. I'm going to eat it all myself~"
"Eh……"
In short, the two of them discussed what to eat for lunch, and then went out to look for it about an hour in advance.
After all, pickled fish is a Liyue dish, and it is not easy to find a chef who can make it in Zhidong.
As before, Liu Bai quickly took out his coat and put it on when he left home.
His executive coat had long ago turned into a lump of ice because it was hung outside the house after washing. Although Liu Bai had put it back in the small white house and stored it when he returned to winter before, this also led to Liu Bai not having the habit of wearing the executive coat.
The coat he was wearing at this moment was actually the Sumeru version coat that Nashida had made for him based on the style of the executive coat.
The profession corresponding to the executive officer of the God of Winter is the sages in Xumi, so this coat should perhaps be called the sage's coat.
At present, Liu Bai is the first sage, although considering certain factors, Nashida has never called him that to the outside world.
"Let's go!"
Although Nashida was now a young girl, she still crawled into Liu Bai's coat, leaving only her head exposed while talking to Liu Bai.
In her mature form, Nashida is almost as tall as Liu Bai, but in her girl form she is still a head shorter than Liu Bai.
However, compared to her younger form, Nashida at this moment can no longer be perfectly hidden under her coat.
