The next day, the sky was still dim when Chu Ge, who had slept uneasily, woke up early, got up groggily, and went to the bathroom.

It was impossible to not play with his phone while squatting…

Normally, at this time, he would be chatting with his readers in the group, but Chu Ge hadn’t opened the group for the past two days. He had been taking a break… If he opened the group, he would usually be urged to update.

However, the break was only until yesterday, he had to update today.

After hesitating for a moment, he decided to open the file on his phone and synchronize the chapters he wrote last night, continuing to write on his phone in order to release it early in the morning and feel a sense of relief.

As a writer in the rising period with high expectations for good reviews, he wanted to write even while squatting.

The big shots are so lucky, leaving a sentence “No update tonight” and then they go play games…

Chu Ge thought about himself, he hadn’t played games for two or three years. What did the kids talk about these days? “Genshin Impact,” “Eternal Punishment,” and even “King of Glory” he hadn’t played before. His memories were still stuck in “World of Warcraft” and “DOTA”…

It’s not that he didn’t have time to play a few games casually, but he was afraid that once he got addicted, it would take up too much time and energy.

Chu Ge was still very self-disciplined. In fact, Zhang Qiren was even more self-disciplined. Chu Ge would still watch the DOTA competition and complain about why they didn’t ban the mammoth, while Zhang Qiren would at most skim through various live broadcasts during his spare time. However, Zhang Qiren left dejectedly, and Chu Ge didn’t know how much meaning this so-called self-discipline had.

After sitting on the toilet for half an hour, he finished his business, and the chapter was finally typed out. He clicked publish, feeling satisfied.

Chu Ge tidied up, washed his hands and ran his hand through his hair. Hmm, he looked even more handsome today, he wondered if Qiu Wuji would be impressed?

As he opened the bathroom door, he saw Qiu Wuji standing outside, seemingly staring at him calmly, but there was an embarrassed look in her eyes, and her face was blushing.

Chu Ge asked curiously, “Why are you standing here?”

Qiu Wuji: “…”

They stared at each other for a while, and Chu Ge suddenly realized, “You need to use the toilet?”

Promise me, a fairy cannot poop, okay?

Why does a cultivator still need to go to the toilet? Hmm, her current body is just in the Qi refining realm… Oh, right, she had beef noodle soup last night, so she probably needs to digest…

Qiu Wuji couldn’t take it anymore, and squeezed out a few words from between her teeth, “Can you move aside?”

“Uh, well…” Chu Ge cautiously said, “My towel and toothbrush are the only things here.”

“What is a toothbrush?” Qiu Wuji asked, holding back her urge, her legs awkwardly clamped together.

“It’s that thing.” Chu Ge pointed to the toothbrush and cup on the washstand, demonstrating brushing his teeth, “Used to clean the mouth, just like how you guys use a willow branch dipped in salt, er, maybe you haven’t tried it in thousands of years.”

“Do you want to put something from your mouth into mine?” The enraged Qiu Wuji grabbed Chu Ge’s collar, and lightly 

“Damn…” Chu Ge flew up like a cloud and fell heavily onto the living room sofa, feeling annoyed. “I just wanted to remind you that these are things I have used. I need to buy new ones for you. Why are you so grumpy?”

Qiu Wuji opened her mouth, and her face turned red again. She didn’t say anything and slammed the bathroom door shut.

Chu Ge rolled off the sofa, feeling a headache coming on. He was annoyed, but he could also understand her feelings of embarrassment at this time. However, this was also a pain for him… it was easy to buy her towels and toothbrushes, but what about clothing? Would she always wear ancient clothes? Did he need to buy her modern clothing? If so, what about underwear? Did she have her period? Did she need sanitary pads?

Holy crap!

It was fun to think that the female lead had come out of the book, but after the initial illusion faded, he realized that he had to face many real-life issues. This was life, not a story.

Chu Ge left the house with a pained expression on his face. The books could wait to be mailed, but he had to buy daily necessities now.

He felt like his daily routine had been completely disrupted. This time should have been spent reading new chapters, checking feedback for inspiration, and chatting with readers and other authors in the book club. Instead, he found himself at the door of a small supermarket buying towels and toothbrushes, and then standing in front of the women’s underwear store, lost in thought.

Facing the weird looks of the supermarket staff, Chu Ge couldn’t hold on any longer and fled with his towels, toothbrushes, and cup.

He remembered something on the way back to the apartment and bought soy milk and steamed buns on the street. When he returned, Qiu Wuji had already come out of the bathroom and was sitting on the sofa in a daze. She didn’t look like a dominant female sect leader anymore, but more like a stray cat.

Chu Ge couldn’t even get angry and handed her the things, coldly saying, “Eat something.”

Qiu Wuji took the items and looked at the chibi immortal girl printed on the cup, then at the warm steamed buns and soy milk. She pursed her lips and lowered her eyes slightly.

Chu Ge sat on the side, starting to eat his steamed bun, and mumbled, “Qiu Wuji as I know has always been a reasonable person and never relied on strength to bully others, I think we should lay some things out and talk about them now…. “

Qiu Wuji looked up at him.

“You don’t want your fate to be in the hands of others, I understand and respect that, and I am willing to cooperate with you. I feel responsible for helping you understand this world. You may think I have an ulterior motive for being interested in you, and I won’t deny it, but that doesn’t mean you can take it for granted that you can beat me up while living in my house, using my things, eating my food…” Chu Ge spoke calmly, “In a sense, I gave you your life, and I don’t expect you to have any respect for me as a creator, but I have at least been kind to you. Shouldn’t you treat me with the same attitude?”

Qiu Wuji pursed her lips. She had good intentions too, but… some of her reactions were more of a stress response to this ‘creator god’ and were just self-protection.

It was ultimately someone who could manipulate her thoughts and actions, unlike other men.

But what he said made sense… Qiu Wuji held her soy milk in silence for a while before whispering, “Perhaps my presence has caused you trouble and disrupted your life.”

“No, I told you, you came at the right time, thank you.” Chu Ge smiled, “We just need to get used to each other, for example… please believe me, some things I say may make you feel embarrassed or angry, but it’s normal in this world.”

Qiu Wuji was taken aback, “Like what?”

“Like now, it’s normal to wear ancient costumes and Hanfu when going out, but no one does it long-term, it’s crazy. So if you want to stay here for a long time, you must wear modern clothes. And the modern short-sleeved skirts, as well as the necessary inner protection to wear lightweight clothing, have you considered that?”

Qiu Wuji was bewildered, “What’s that?”

Chu Ge opened his phone and quickly searched for a lingerie advertisement, then threw his phone to Qiu Wuji. “Take a look for yourself.”

After saying that, he went into his room and started working on the novel again.

Qiu Wuji stared at the woman in the lingerie, stupefied.
