Chapter 47: You have to pretend
Xu Qing figured it out overnight.
He had an epiphany.
This silly Jiang He was someone he couldn't trust to others. Moreover, she probably wouldn't want to rely on anyone else either. With her lack of social connections and the unresolved identity issues that could take who knows how long to solve, she had no choice but to keep freeloading here.
In this world, the only person she could currently depend on was him. Naturally, their relationship would take a step forward—totally normal. Besides, this girl wasn’t so easily fooled; slow and steady was the way to go. Regardless of how things turned out, there would always be other options.
On another note, what if one day, before any progress was made, she just suddenly whoosh disappeared back to her world?

Jiang He maintained her usual routine: getting up early to open the door and start her morning exercise. With her sword, she practiced her moves inside her small room, loosening her muscles. Once her body warmed up and she broke a light sweat, she'd wash up and begin her day.
