"Senior sister...are you okay?"

Along the way, Gu Qingze followed Shen Mengli quietly. Her silence made him feel a little worried.

Although she didn't say a word, he could clearly feel the sadness surging like a tide in her heart.

"I'm fine, there's no need for you to worry."

When Shen Mengli said this, her tone was cold and distant, and she didn't even bother to be polite.

"Junior Brother Gu, you don't seem to belong to this world."

As soon as they entered the secret room of the exchange, before Gu Qingze could speak, Shen Mengli took the initiative.

He couldn't help but feel a little surprised, he never expected that she would point this out so directly. By saying this, she also indirectly admitted that she was not from this world.

Gu Qingze was about to tell his own inference, but Shen Mengli's gentle voice sounded again: "You guessed right, I am not from this world either."

Gu Qingze was at a loss at the moment. All the words he had prepared for testing and maneuvering seemed to have lost their use all of a sudden.

After hearing her words, Gu Qingze remained silent. It wasn't that he didn't want to respond, but he was hesitant.

He knew in his heart that as long as he revealed the truth that he had traveled through a book or was not the original owner, thunder from the sky would most likely fall.

He still remembers the terrifying power vividly. He was really worried that the thunder would not only strike him, but also cause damage to other people's newly opened exchange.

Unexpectedly, Shen Mengli seemed to have already seen through his concerns.

"Don't worry, I am not from this world, and I also have a 'system'. I think you should know the meaning of 'system', right? Under the protection of the 'system', the way of heaven can be temporarily blocked for a period of time. So, you can speak with confidence."

Gu Qingze's eyes lit up. This way, perhaps Ling Xiao could know about this matter.

However, just as Gu Qingze was about to express his thoughts, Shen Mengli guessed it again.

"Only the two of us know this. If anyone else, or even the Son of Heaven in this world, knows this, our lives will be in danger. After all, the level of my system is too low."

Gu Qingze nodded slightly in frustration.

"Okay, if you have anything you want to ask, just ask directly. I still have to go and receive guests later. After all, there will definitely be a lot of customers since the store has just opened. I'm worried that Lan Yue will be overwhelmed if she relies on herself."

Shen Mengli said this with a worried look on her face, but it was unknown whether this was her real concern.

"Senior Sister, did you come with your own system after transmigrating into the book?"

Gu Qingze thought for a moment and asked his first question.

Shen Mengli was somewhat caught off guard when she heard his question and couldn't help but chuckle.

"Brother, please don't joke around. There is no such thing as traveling through a book."

There is no book at all? Then how did this little world come into being?

When Gu Qingze heard Shen Mengli's answer, he couldn't help feeling a little flustered, as if he was eager to prove something.

"But I did come from a book. I read a novel in my original world, gave it a bad review, and then came to this world. Except for the lack of a system, everything else fits the description of traveling through a book."

"So that's how your world defines traveling through a book. If you must put it in a certain way, then yes, after all, it's crossing from one world to another."
