Night’s Nomenclature

At noon, the autumn hunting team stopped beside the road and took a short break.

The servants took out lunch boxes similar to the one that Qing Chen saw before and several items that looked like induction cookers. They started preparing the meals without even having the need to start a fire.

It seemed like the autumn hunting team was using more advanced power sources than the wilderness men to achieve complete wireless charging even in this remote place.

Thinking about it, Qin Cheng's wireless charging system, "Venus No. 3 Lead-Bismuth Alloy Reactor", was retired from an active battling tank. The decedents from those corporations must have even more powerful equipment.

At this moment, the Kamidai convoy, which had been following slowly behind, did not stop with them. Taking advantage of the autumn hunting team's meal time, they suddenly accelerated and seemed to be taking this opportunity to escape from Li Yinuo.

Li Yinuo looked at their taillights calmly and did not immediately order everyone to get back into their vehicles. She said, "Give them some time to see how far they can run."

Qing Chen and Li Shutong stood side by side to watch the drama happening. Their target this time was not the Kamidai Family, so they didn't care if the Kamidais were running away or not.

Instead, what surprised them both was that the time traveler "Li Chengxi" who was taken into Li Yinuo's car before was following Nan Gengchen obediently.

He went to wherever Nan Gengchen went.

When Nan Gengchen wanted to sit down, he helped put down a mat on the ground.

"Why can't I understand this anymore," Li Shutong was amazed.

"Uh," Qing Chen thought for a moment, "Teacher, I don't think I can understand this either…"

No matter if Li Yinuo cared about his identity as a time traveler or not, how did she turn Li Chengxi into Nan Gengchen's loyal follower?

Qing Chen quietly made a guess, and said in a low voice, "Teacher, I suspect that Li Yinuo already knows that Nan Gengchen is a time walker, so she's gathering other time travelers and intending to establish some forces for Nan Gengchen in the Outer World. She will control the time travelers she found out in the Inner World, and then let those people serve Nan Gengchen in the Outer World."

"That's quite believable," said Li Shutong, "Your classmate must be that girl's true love…"

Both Qing Chen and Li Shutong thought that life would be quite boring after they were forced to stay with the autumn hunting team.

But after two time travelers came, they just seemed like two people sitting at a movie theater eating popcorn.

Now, life's getting interesting.

The two looked back at Zhou Xuan and noticed that as the other servants were cooking, he was diligently preparing the other ingredients, cutting meat, and choosing vegetables.

He didn't even get close to any of the high-tech products, just so that he could avoid being found out.

"Look, teacher, none of the other servants noticed that he didn't know how to use any of the high-tech devices," said Qing Chen smiling, "They are probably thinking that he was doing a great job."

"Yeah, he's also very observant. As he's cutting the meat, he's also looking at how the other people are using the induction stoves," said Li Shutong, feeling that it was quite intriguing.

Qin Yiyi, who was not far away, felt a little puzzled. Why did these two suddenly become a little strange since this morning. …

She was not happy.

"Hey, teacher," said Qing Chen as he was chewing on a protein bar, "Zhou Xuan kept looking toward Nan Gengchen and Li Yinuo."

That afternoon, the time traveler sitting in the back of the car tried to discuss Li Yinuo many times. He ended up failing because he didn't want to reveal his intentions.

Qing Chen held back his desire to laugh and waited to see what will happen next.

Li Shutong chose to act and directly asked a servant who liked gossip, "Hey, can you tell us a little about Miss Yinuo and that boy?"

The talkative servant quickly looked around. Seeing that the servant in charge of them was asleep, he started talking, "You don't know this because you're from the outside, but the Li Family tried to arrange several marriages for Miss Yinuo already. Miss Yinuo kept turning them down. Everyone almost thought that she liked girls more. Then, all of a sudden, that boy showed up…"

For the entire afternoon, they basically just gossiped about the Li Family: the one who has the best relationship with Miss Yinuo was a little girl named Li Tongyun, who was a direct descendant of the Li Family; Miss Yinuo seemed to like boys, but that's only after Nan Gengchen appeared; the family head of the Li Family really liked Miss Yinuo and Miss Tongyun…

Zhou Xuan's eyes sparkled when he heard all this, as if someone gave him a pillow when he was dozing off, and even when he looked at Li Shutong, he would occasionally look grateful.

Of course, he was confident that Li Shutong will not notice any of this…

Zhou Xuan was very calm, and he did not show any abnormality that night, which made Qing Chen and Li Shutong a little disappointed.

However, the next day at noon, Zhou Xuan was taking a cooked meal to Li Yinuo…

When he walked up to the burly girl, he deliberately lifted his slightly long hair and revealed his handsome face.

Qing Chen and Li Shutong, who was also eating, couldn't help coughing out everything in their mouths.

Others may not have noticed anything, but the two of them who have been silently paying attention to Zhou Xuan know too well what Zhou Xuan wanted to do.

The two of them never imagined that, after learning that Li Yinuo likes boys, he would choose such a direct method to start his game!
