Rare Tranquility

It was already 2 a.m., and Lu Li was tired from being busy until now, so he said,

“Let’s rest for a bit; we’ll go buy some daily necessities for you tomorrow.”

As he spoke, he was about to sleep on the sofa.

The apartment had only one bedroom and one bed.

But Jessica suddenly sprang up, saying in a frightened, deer-like voice, “I’m scared; sleep with me~”

Lu Li knew this little girl was acting and felt somewhat helpless.

Sure enough, Jessica immediately pulled him into bed with a smile.

Seeing that the bed was quite large, Lu Li didn’t bother further, closed his eyes, and focused on sleeping, soon falling into a deep sleep.

Jessica stared at him for a long while next to him, gave him a gentle peck, and whispered,

“Lu Li, would it be okay if I marry you?” “If you don’t say anything, that means you agree~”

The young girl smiled sweetly, nestled into Lu Li’s arms, and soon fell asleep too.

~~~~~~~~~

The next morning, Lu Li woke up feeling refreshed.

Jessica was entangled around him like an octopus, soundly asleep.

Her delicate body was graceful and carried a faint, pleasant scent, with one fair, smooth leg hooked around his waist.

This was also the reason Lu Li felt it inconvenient; he gently withdrew his limbs and slowly got out of bed.

But the young girl suddenly opened her eyes, full of panic!

It took her a moment to realize where she was, and she breathed a sigh of relief, saying, “Good morning, Lu Li.”

“Get up, let’s go shopping and buy some stuff.”

He seldom stayed at the apartment; it lacked many daily necessities.

Now that he had money, it was a good time to go shopping, and he could also bring some things for the two girls from the Otherworld.

Hearing about going shopping made Jessica thrilled, and she jumped out of bed.

She held Lu Li’s arm and said sweetly, “Shall we go to Revolution Avenue?”

Revolution Avenue was the city center of Tijuana and the most bustling area.

Initially, Lu Li couldn’t afford to go there, but now naturally, it was different.

~~~~~~~~~~

Tijuana didn’t have high-rise buildings, so it lacked the congestion and oppression of a modern city.

Walking down the city streets, the mountains far away and the buildings built along them were all in clear view.

A young couple, holding hands and intimate as siblings, wandered around a shopping center for a long time.

First, they each bought a few sets of clothes; Lu Li specifically chose vintage styles, so they wouldn’t stand out too much in the Otherworld.

Then they purchased a bunch of unlabeled cardboard box soaps and shampoo in glass bottles.

The latter was contained in crystal bottles and was ten times more expensive than regular shampoo!

But even if it were a hundred times more expensive, Lu Li wouldn’t care about the expense.

Especially the money he had stolen; it felt exceptionally good to spend without any heartache.

They also bought two of the newest, most expensive smartphones and ended their shopping spree, arriving at a restaurant named “Cabanna.”

The restaurant had high online ratings, beautiful tile walls, and a lovely painted ceiling.

They ordered roasted vermilion snapper, cheese-baked crab, steak, and creamed corn soup.

Exquisite and delicious food was served one after another, and Lu Li gazed outside at the busy street and sighed.

It was the first time in five years that he had enjoyed a meal in such an elegant and comfortable restaurant.

The messy slums and the savage black gang vanished in an instant, and he felt a rare sense of tranquility.

But this tranquility was bought with slaughter and money…

“Lu Li, eat up~”

The girl’s tender and melodious voice brought Lu Li back to awareness.

Jessica had her mouth stuffed with food, resembling a little chipmunk, and was playing with her newly bought phone.

Lu Li also began to eat and said,

“I need to tell you something.

I’m very busy, often traveling far and not returning for several days; you’ll have to behave yourself at home.”

Jessica’s expression stiffened, and she immediately thought of the man before her with his incredible gun skills and his swift killing tactics…

She realized that Lu Li was no ordinary person and must have important things to do, so she obediently said,

“You do what you need to, I’ll take care of myself.”

Lu Li wiped the cheese from the corner of the little girl’s mouth and smiled, “You don’t have to worry about getting bored; I’ll send you to school when classes resume.”

“Ah?

School?

Can I not go…”

Jessica’s pretty face tightened; she hadn’t been in a school for many years.

“Go, knowledge is more important than you think.”

Lu Li unlocked his new phone to check it and said,

“The news says the negotiations have just started, it seems it’ll still be a month or two before classes resume.”

Hearing it would be a few months more, Jessica felt slightly relieved and enjoyed the rare moment of happiness.

~~~~~~~~~~~

After dinner, Jessica begged Lu Li to accompany her to watch a movie before they headed home.

“Today is the happiest day of my life~”

The little girl, dressed in a beautiful new dress, clung to Lu Li’s arm, her face beaming with a sweet smile, incredibly happy.

It was evening now, and they walked down a street filled with souvenir shops.

There were a lot of foreign tourists here, and naturally, there were also street prostitutes.

Of course, those soliciting on the roadside were of average looks.

But they dressed very revealingly and were bold.

Just then, Jessica saw a prostitute by the roadside and immediately changed color, quickly hiding behind Lu Li.

Lu Li looked closely and realized it was someone he knew—Heidi, who had caused trouble at the hospital before.

This woman in her forties was now wearing a school uniform skirt paired with fishnet stockings, turned into a street prostitute!

Jessica said, “It looks like the Beheading Gang is completely done for, and the new gang that’s taking over is establishing its power…

This woman really deserves it; she won’t live past three months!”

The little girl had witnessed Heidi’s cruelty firsthand and felt a surge of satisfaction.

Lu Li nodded, “This is her retribution.”

While they were talking, three Star Alliance Country tourists with curious expressions pushed the numb Heidi into an alley.

Lu Li suddenly felt a chill and quickly took Jessica away.

~~~~~~~~

By the time they got home, the sun had already set.

Lu Li had had a warm and pleasant day, but it was time for him to leave.

Before leaving, he handed a Glock pistol to Jessica, saying,

“By my original thoughts, I definitely wouldn’t have wanted you to touch something like this.

But seeing now, to survive here, you really need the ability to protect yourself, so when in Rome, do as the Romans do.”

Jessica took the gun, clumsily checked it over, and nodded, “There are tutorial videos on YouTube, I’ll learn how to use it.”

“Right, good luck.

I should get going now.”

Lu Li picked up his travel bag and waved goodbye.

Jessica hugged him tightly, “You must come back safely, you promised me~”

“???”

Lu Li’s face was full of question marks, unable to remember what he had promised as he thought about it all the way.

He carried his nearly person-sized travel bag to the rooftop of the apartment building and issued the “Cross-border” command.

“All this stuff…

can I bring it across?”

A flash of blue light, and Lu Li had disappeared.
