Time Travel: I'm a Flower Thief

The moment the thought of "pale, young, and thin" popped into Xie Xiaoyi's mind, he caught Hua Suwen glaring at him. She slammed the plate of pastries on the table and said crisply:

"What are you looking at? Haven't you ever seen someone serve pastries before?"

Xie Xiaoyi quickly looked away and chuckled dryly, "No, it's just that these pastries smell really good."

"You know your stuff! I got up before dawn this morning to steam this, it tastes a hundred times better than the bitter medicine my senior brother brews!"

Hua Lingchu shook her head helplessly and said gently, "Junior sister, his injuries haven't fully healed yet, don't tease him."

Hua Suwen made a face at her senior brother, then turned around, picked up a piece of osmanthus cake, and waved it in front of Xie Xiaoyi, her eyes crinkling with a mischievous glint.

"You're lucky to have the chance to try my cooking today because of my senior brother—so tell me, do you want some?"

After several days in a coma, Xie Xiaoyi's stomach was rumbling with hunger. Hearing her say this, he nodded hastily.

Hua Suwen hummed in agreement, but then abruptly pulled her hand back, her face instantly becoming serious.

"Trying to take advantage?"

Let's make things clear first!

What is your name?

Explain your background and history clearly!

"Your injuries haven't fully healed yet. If it's a bad person, I won't let my senior brother continue saving you!"

Xie Xiaoyi was dumbfounded; how could he dare to tell the truth?

If he were to reveal his reputation as a notorious womanizer, wouldn't that be courting death?

Seeing his embarrassed expression, Hua Lingshu realized he clearly had something difficult to say, so she tried to smooth things over:

"Junior sister, everyone has their own secrets. If he doesn't want to talk about it, don't force him."

Xie Xiaoyi was moved by Hua Lingshu's kindness and immediately clasped his hands in a fist and said:

"My surname is Xie, and my given name is Mo. I am just an ordinary wandering knight-errant."

The reason he was injured was because he was being chased by villains from the martial arts world.

Hua Suwen tilted her head and sized him up, not believing him at all: "Being chased by villains... Your name is Xie Mo? You're not lying to me, are you!"

Xie Xiaoyi quickly shook his head, his face serious, afraid of revealing a flaw.

Hua Suwen's eyes darted around, and her voice rose slightly, tinged with a mischievous glint:

"You're not lying? Then swear a solemn oath!"

Xie Xiaoyi cursed inwardly, "Such a precocious little devil, what a troublesome girl. I wonder which unlucky guy will marry her in the future?"

He cursed inwardly, but forced a bitter smile onto his face, and then swore an oath by extending his right index, middle, and ring fingers:

"My surname is Xie, and my given name is Mo. If I utter even the slightest lie, may I die a horrible death."

Hua Suwen raised the corners of her mouth slightly and nodded in satisfaction: "Alright, that's more like it."

Xie Xiaoyi chuckled inwardly.

cut!

To swear a solemn oath?

So what?

You have Zhang Liangji, and I have Guoqiangti. My name before I transmigrated was indeed Xie Mo, so I'm not lying, and I won't die a terrible death in the future!

Hua Lingshu pondered to himself:

Xie Mo?

This name isn't very famous, is it?

I've never heard of this name in the martial arts world; it seems he really is just an ordinary wandering swordsman.

Hua Suwen thought the same as her senior brother: Xie Mo's name was unremarkable, and he shouldn't be some kind of evil person or demon.

Now that she could relax, she reached out, picked up a piece of pastry, walked over to Xie Xiaoyi, and handed it to him.

Before she got close to Xie Xiaoyi, everything was fine, but once she did, Xie Xiaoyi couldn't help but feel a surge of emotion.

A pure aura wafted over him, the unique crispness of a virgin, exactly the same as the physique required for the "Qi Harmony Technique" he cultivated.

The moment this thought crossed Xie Xiaoyi's mind, he was jolted, and a fire seemed to ignite within him.

He had already figured out the wonders of dual cultivation using the "Harmony Qi Technique" after transmigrating. If he could achieve something with this girl...

With such internal energy cultivation, progress will surely be rapid, and breaking through bottlenecks may be within easy reach.

"Hey! Do you want some or not?"

Hua Suwen was a little surprised that he didn't take the pastries she offered.

Xie Xiaoyi didn't hear what she said at all, because his gaze was unconsciously fixed on Hua Suwen.

That is the cultivator's instinctive desire, and also the lust driven by the cultivation method.

Xie Xiaoyi was overcome with lust.

This "fair-skinned, young, and thin" girl may be young, but her innocent charm is just too damn alluring.

Although she is petite, she still has a fleshy and perky bottom.

Otherwise I would...

But the next second, with a soft "slap," Xie Xiaoyi raised his hand and slapped himself hard across the face.

The force wasn't heavy, but it made my cheeks burn and also jolted me out of my filthy thoughts.

Hua Suwen was startled by Xie Xiaoyi's inexplicable behavior, and almost dropped the osmanthus cake in her hand.

"What are you doing? Are you crazy?"

"Brother Xie, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell anywhere?"

Hua Lingshu was also curious, but Xie Xiaoyi had confused him.

"It's nothing."

Xie Xiaoyi raised his head and cupped his hands in greeting to the two fellow disciples.

"I apologize, I was distracted and behaved rudely."

Hua Suwen suddenly found his behavior amusing and asked with a grin:

"You slap yourself for getting distracted? And so hard?"

Xie Xiaoyi quickly lowered his eyes, concealing the surging desire within them; the voice in his heart was tearing him apart.

How could you think like that?

The girl in front of me was the one who, along with her senior brother, pulled me back from the brink of death.

These past few days, Hua Lingshu has exhausted himself trying to save me; I should repay this life-saving grace tenfold.

Before I transmigrated, I was a soft-hearted high school student. I would squat down and feed the stray cats on the roadside some bread crumbs. I never had such a crooked thought of taking advantage of their vulnerability.

Xie Xiaoyi shook his head and sorted out his thoughts.

He now has the memories of two people in his brain. Although there is Xie Xiaoyi's evil side, Xie Mo is still the one who controls his body.

Although Xie Xiaoyi was despicable, Xie Mo was indeed a person with moral standards.

Hua Lingshu saw all of this, his fingers gently stroking the rim of the empty medicine bowl.

Shemo's behavior seemed absurd, but his eyes were full of struggle.

Does he have some unspeakable secret?

But he had no idea that the reason Xie Xiaoyi's eyes were struggling was entirely due to the virginity of his junior sister, Hua Suwen.

If he knew what Xie Xiaoyi was thinking just now, he would definitely have stabbed him in the weak spot.

......

A few days later, Xie Xiaoyi's injuries had mostly healed, and he was able to walk slowly around the medicine hut.

There was no internet or anime/manga (ACG) in ancient times, which made Xie Xiaoyi extremely bored.

Having watched many time-travel dramas, he knew that once someone travels to ancient times, it's very difficult to return to the modern world unless they die.

But if I'm bullied like that in the modern world, won't I be bullied by Murong Wei and the others again when I go back?

Another thing is, what if I die in this world and the other space-time doesn't even make a ripple? Wouldn't that mean I died in vain?

Um......

No, dying is too painful, I'd rather live!

Xie Xiaoyi was torn between his inner thoughts and his final conclusion was:

Although ancient times were boring, as a womanizer, one could find "girlfriends" anytime, anywhere without spending money. Isn't this buff better than being a lifelong single in modern times?

In modern times, he had never even held a girl's hand. His only intimate contact with a girl was when modern-day Murong Wei wielded a mop handle and brutally assaulted him.

Thinking about it this way, the days don't seem so hard to get through anymore.
