Soon, it was time to eat.

Currently, the orphanage has a total of eighty-three little brothers and sisters, all of whom have become orphans for various reasons.

A large number of them still suffer from certain physical ailments, and Lin Qianxuan had roughly checked them out. They mostly have physical disabilities, something he couldn't address before, but now he can provide treatment.

At worst, they can be given a Blood and Flesh Armor Body, which might even be more useful than the limbs of most normal people.

It would be a mechanical ascension in its own right.

However, this needs to be done gradually, ideally by leveraging the influence of the Otherworld Bureau, otherwise, it would be difficult.

So Lin Qianxuan directly told the old director about this and informed him that he would contact people from the Otherworld Bureau to help the little brothers and sisters undergo surgery to recover from their disabilities.

The old director initially didn't want to trouble Lin Qianxuan further, but upon seeing the children, he could only sigh and thank Lin Qianxuan.

"Happy Birthday!"

The director inserted candles into the cake for Lin Qianxuan and offered his blessings.

Blowing out the candles and making a wish, Lin Qianxuan did it all in one go, and then began distributing the cake.

He wasn't the only one celebrating a birthday today.

This has always been a tradition at the orphanage. For those whose birthdays are unclear, they all celebrate together on January 1st.

Seeing the innocent expressions on the faces of these children from the lower rungs of society, Chen Long'Er's eyes held a bit of a complex emotion.

Lin Qianxuan spoke lightly, but it was only by seeing his living environment firsthand that she understood what it was really like.

And this was even after improvements in recent years.

Heaven knows how hard it was when Lin Qianxuan was young.

Lin Qianxuan ate a little casually, and then started chatting with the old director.

The old director planned to gradually stop admitting new orphans starting next year.

Mainly because he also grew old, and the conditions here are limited, nowhere near the level of another government-run orphanage in the city.

Lin Qianxuan agreed with all of this.

The old director had devoted his whole life, it's time for him to rest.

It's time for them to take over now.

"After this year, you'll be twenty-six. Time flies." Fu Zhou commented nostalgically, holding a photo from when Lin Qianxuan was a kid.

By this time, Chen Long'Er had also finished distributing the cake and came over. Fu Zhou handed the photo to Lin Qianxuan, patted his shoulder, and left the space for Lin Qianxuan and Chen Long'Er, then went to take care of the children.

Looking at the young Lin Qianxuan in the photo, Chen Long'Er seemed a little curious.

Back then, Lin Qianxuan appeared timid, as if afraid of strangers, nothing like the expressive person he is now, frighteningly introverted.

In the photo, besides Lin Qianxuan, there were many others, including a tall girl standing next to him, with a high ponytail, wearing somewhat shabby clothes, holding Lin Qianxuan's shoulder with a rather cheerful smile.

Chen Long'Er stared at her for a long time.

Lin Qianxuan stuffed a piece of cake into her mouth and said, "Her name is Zhang Juan. We all wore donated clothes when we were kids; she came in boys' clothing, and I always thought she was a boy. There was a stray wolfdog here back then, almost bit me, but she protected me and got a long scar on her thigh. After that, we started calling each other brothers, but later on, when she was thirteen, a kind wealthy couple adopted her because she was smart, heard she went abroad..."

Hearing Lin Qianxuan's explanation, Chen Long'Er chuckled.

"No need to be nervous. I'm not that easily jealous," Chen Long'Er said, licking the cream off her lips.

"You better mean it," Lin Qianxuan said.

He didn't trust Chen Long'Er to be so magnanimous.

He managed not to upset the balance purely by maintaining a delicate equilibrium.

Moreover, the Gongsun sisters and Chen Long'Er were in different worlds, so they could stay peaceful.

If they were in the same world, Lin Qianxuan bet that Chen Long'Er would have thoughts of getting rid of that mistress.

She wasn't easy to get along with, and she was absolutely ruthless when the time came.

"Hmph."

Chen Long'Er gave a cold snort, leaned against Lin Qianxuan, and ate the cake.

It would be a lie to say there were no grudges.

But her heart was somewhat forgiving towards Lin Qianxuan.

He was special.

He was the one who led her from darkness into light.

Despite all his flaws, he was irreplaceable.

The experiences they shared were real.

His promises were always being fulfilled.

Blame destiny for playing tricks.

However, she would never let Lin Qianxuan see through her inner feelings.

What if Lin Qianxuan took advantage of it?

Smelling those strange scents on him sometimes was already enough.

She certainly didn't want to see other women around Lin Qianxuan.

"By the way, what did you wish for?" Chen Long'Er asked.

"I wished for us to always live happily together." Lin Qianxuan casually replied.

This was a lie. He actually wished that the String of Destiny wouldn't light up again.

Being a master of time management wasn't as easy as imagined.

Especially when wooing girls could be so perilous, risking life and limb if luck wasn't on your side.

Even if it's a brief moment of joy, there are more troubles afterward.

Even handling just the Gongsun sisters, Lin Qianxuan sometimes felt a bit overwhelmed, dealing with their occasional tantrums.

Not to mention three women in two different worlds.

He genuinely wished he could learn a cloning technique so he could take care of everyone at the same time.

"You think I believe that?" Chen Long'Er said, rolling her eyes.

Lin Qianxuan was speechless.

A too-smart girlfriend was indeed hard to fool.

.....

After dinner, both Lin Qianxuan and Chen Long'Er received a red envelope from Fu Zhou.

Not much, but it was the thought that counted.

Fu Zhou also took the opportunity to remind Lin Qianxuan in front of Chen Long'Er, saying that if Lin Qianxuan ever did anything wrong, she should find him, and he would definitely discipline Lin Qianxuan properly.

Seeing Lin Qianxuan's bitter expression, Chen Long'Er nodded repeatedly, secretly delighted.

No matter how capable those mistresses and lovers are, they will always remain mistresses and lovers. Will Lin Qianxuan ever bring them to meet his parents?

Now she feels her position as the primary partner is stable. In the future, if those minor characters dare to provoke her, she will ask the old dean to help vent her anger.

In private, she even gave some Spirit Essence Pills to Fu Zhou, hoping he could live a bit longer.

Fu Zhou knows that Lin Qianxuan and Chen Long'Er are from the same unit and thought it was the same kind of Pills as those Lin Qianxuan sent, so he accepted them with a smile.

If Fu Zhou knew these Pill were worth thousands of Spirit Crystal each, one can only wonder what his reaction would be.

....

....

Returning home, Lin Qianxuan sat directly in front of the computer, planning to watch some new anime.

Nowadays, with advanced AI technology, producing anime is much cheaper and faster. Even with less capital, it's easy to produce a high-quality work that previously would have required a significant investment.

This significantly enriches the spiritual lives of anime enthusiasts.

Chen Long'Er also lay on the bed with a tablet, preparing to read a book. What she read was about Arrays, which she treated as entertainment.

Within seconds, the computer was on; Lin Qianxuan was just about to click the browser when he caught sight of the glowing icon.

He was stunned.

His heartbeat slightly paused.

You've got to be kidding!

How is it still here?

No way, my friend! Did I make a wish for nothing?

Or did you misunderstand?

Lin Qianxuan thought of the scene where he was utterly powerless against the Corrupt God, and his mindset became very complex.

Should he play or not play?

Based on experience, these things often require playing, whether he wants to or not.

The consequences of not playing were essentially unbearable.

Just like before.

If he couldn't kill the Corrupt God, the Corrupt Qi would invade Earth, causing widespread corruption.

Although it would eventually be resolved, the number of dying creatures would be hard to calculate.

The same applies to Chen Long'Er.

Lin Qianxuan feels that if he hadn't saved Chen Long'Er, allowing her to die, Earth would have faced severe issues due to losing its newly born Dragon Bloodline at some point in the future.

So he really had no choice!

He quietly glanced at Chen Long'Er lying on the bed.

Playing this game and picking up girls in front of her?

Won't that be a bit too intense?

Should he respect her and wait until she leaves?

Can Chen Long'Er see the screen?

At this moment, Chen Long'Er gave Lin Qianxuan a peculiar look, not understanding why he kept staring at her.

Lin Qianxuan smiled and shifted his gaze to the screen.

Click~!

He clicked the mouse and directly opened the game.

The green String of Destiny interweaved and transformed, rendering on the screen.

Chen Long'Er's expression was natural, seemingly not noticing any changes on the screen, moving her gaze back to her tablet.

Lin Qianxuan sighed slightly; it seems this game can really be seen or played by no one but him. He wonders what the underlying principle is.

....

The computer screen displayed an urbanized background.

Yet, there are traces of decay, with abandoned trash piled everywhere, dirty and messy.

In this scene, the game character stood, with a strange woman draped in a ragged robe beside him.

She was called a strange woman because behind her seemed folded metal wings like insect wings. Her exposed half-face had a giant blue-gray compound eye and an antenna-like horn. Her scattered hair had multiple colors, her arms were covered in Scale Armor, her claws showed a metallic blue reflection, a long tail with bone spurs extended behind her, her legs were robust, with a thick silver-white keratin layer, like the legs of some giant creature.

Opposite them were a few people wearing different Armors, holding weapons.

These Armors looked quite high-tech, and the weapons in hand held a significant sci-fi vibe.

[You crossed dimensions again, after a moment of bewilderment, you decided to gather information, and you discovered this scene. The woman being surrounded emits a dense and dissipating String of Destiny aura; she is the Daughter of Destiny, you realized this. At the same time, you felt a familiar vibe from her, so you decided to help her...]

A simple narration made Lin Qianxuan realize the situation.

The woman who seemed almost completely devoid of human form was actually the Daughter of Destiny...

He admitted he had somewhat peculiar tastes, but wasn't this a bit much.....

By the way, which world is this?

Looks quite technologically advanced!

Lin Qianxuan didn't rush the plot forward but started retrieving detailed information about crossing dimensions.

(Recollecting how I crossed dimensions, details please.)

[You began to recall the details of your dimension crossing; you distinctly remember the crossing time node being nine thirteen on the morning of February first, Earth time, just after returning from the Qingling World.]

[The reason for your crossing was because while treating children at the welfare home, the dean gave you a box.]

[That box contained items from when you were living as a child.]

[Returning to your place, you took out and examined the things inside, and saw a hairpin. When you took it, you crossed dimensions.]

"A hairpin?"

Lin Qianxuan murmured in his heart; did he use that when he was a child?

Wait, he might have.

At that time, he was particularly against getting his hair cut, so he grew it quite long, almost covering his eyes.

Then Zhang Juan gave him a green hairpin.

Thinking of this, Lin Qianxuan began to wonder why this hairpin took him here?

His gaze fell upon the woman who was nearly unrecognizable, his mood suddenly heavier.

Please don't let it be her!
