“Incarnation experience?”

This reminded Fu Zhengnan of the moment not long ago when Jiang Qingqing appeared in his bed—was that also an incarnation?

Postponing his meeting, Fu Zhengnan drove back to Jinyu International.

Sitting quietly on the sofa, he watched as Jiang Qingqing finished the preparatory work for food distribution. The moment she was done, he called her into the room.

The first thing Jiang Qingqing saw upon entering was Fu Zhengnan sitting on the sofa.

She was momentarily surprised but quickly lit up with excitement as she walked toward the sofa.

“Whose child is this? Why does he look so cold and cool?”

“So small yet so dignified, even adjusting the stray strands of hair on his forehead!”

Dressed in a suit and tie, he looked like a chibi character straight out of an otome game—acting all cool and composed.

Jiang Qingqing sat beside him, curiously asking, “Who are you? How did you get into this house?”

Was he someone newly helped by the divine being?

The child appeared to be around seven or eight years old, with a cold, fair complexion and strikingly handsome features.

Jiang Qingqing’s hands twitched with the urge to pinch his face.

Fu Zhengnan narrowed his eyes slightly, realizing the situation.

Because the one standing before him…

Was also a chibi version of Jiang Qingqing.

Fu Zhengnan’s lips curled into a faint smile, his expression growing lazier. Crossing his legs as he leaned back on the sofa, he asked in an amused tone, “Jiang Qingqing, do you have a childhood portrait of yourself?”

Jiang Qingqing immediately recognized his voice—

Oh no!

She jumped off the sofa in shock.

T-this is… the divine being?!

Terrified, she dropped to the carpet and respectfully declared,

“Great Divine One above, please forgive my offense just now!”

“I didn’t really want to pinch your face!”

Never in her wildest dreams did Jiang Qingqing expect that the omnipotent and powerful divine being…

Would turn out to be a child?!

And such an adorable child at that?!

Truly, gods are born with divine power—compared to them, mere mortals could only envy.

Fu Zhengnan was momentarily taken aback by Jiang Qingqing’s exaggerated reaction, his body stiffening slightly.

He was used to dealing with the higher-ups of the Fu Corporation or government officials—none of them were as animated and dramatic as Jiang Qingqing.

But, surprisingly, he found her antics rather amusing.

There she was, a tiny chibi Jiang Qingqing, lying flat on the floor with her arms raised above her head.

Even the small cloth pouch hanging from her body was the one he had prepared for her.

Fu Zhengnan’s smile deepened.

“Get up and sit properly. Let me check your shoulder injury.”

Jiang Qingqing hesitated, stealing a glance at the chibi version of Fu Zhengnan on the sofa. He didn’t seem upset.

After confirming a few more times, she slowly got up and walked toward him.

Fu Zhengnan nodded, motioning for her to sit beside him.

Seeing that he wasn’t against it, Jiang Qingqing sat down boldly and even asked, “Do all the children from your place have divine powers?”

Fu Zhengnan: “……”

She was dodging the topic.

“I need to check your shoulder injury and apply some medicine.”

Jiang Qingqing glanced at the medicinal alcohol in his hand and nodded.

Without hesitation, she pulled down her collar, exposing her shoulder.

Well, he’s just a kid.

For years, Emperor Liang had only one heir—Jiang Qingqing. She never played with other children in the palace. Occasionally, ministers’ daughters would be brought in as companions, but they always ended up crying for their mothers, so Jiang Qingqing eventually stopped letting the emperor call them in.

Because of that, she found little kids fascinating.

Fu Zhengnan poured the medicinal alcohol onto his palm and gently applied it to the bruise on her shoulder.

“Hiss—”

Jiang Qingqing gasped in pain.

How could someone so tiny have such strong hands?!

She couldn’t understand.

“I’ll be gentler.”

Fu Zhengnan eased his touch.

Jiang Qingqing had initially been eager to talk to the divine being, but now that she saw he was just a child, she suddenly found herself at a loss for words.

She simply sat there blankly as he applied the medicine.

Seeing her quiet demeanor, Fu Zhengnan broke the silence, “You don’t have anything to say to me?”

Being called out directly, Jiang Qingqing bit her lip awkwardly.

Talking to a half-grown child… could he even understand? Could he truly comprehend her thoughts?

It just felt… strange.

Even though she had longed to meet him and hear his voice.

“Um… I don’t really have much to say. This morning, I was a bit frightened, but I quickly escaped that foreign world, so it wasn’t too bad.”

She left out a lot of the thoughts in her heart.

Instead, she briefly summarized the situation.

Fu Zhengnan understood her hesitation and didn’t push her to continue.

He glanced at the time—22 minutes remained before the incarnation ended.

He then said, “Stay and have lunch with me before heading out. The food distribution might be difficult to handle.”

“It’s best to have Xu Jifeng bring more guards to maintain order.”

Jiang Qingqing was well aware of the challenges ahead.

If they wanted everyone to get food, they had to enforce a proper queue.

But the starving people, upon seeing food, wouldn’t patiently wait—no matter how much they were assured that there was enough for everyone, they simply wouldn’t believe it.

Many would fear that if they obediently queued up, rule-breakers would get all the food while they ended up with nothing.

Hugging a small doll and resting her chin on it, Jiang Qingqing mused aloud,

“I was thinking… what if we set up a checkpoint at the front?”

“Let the children and elderly enter first. After they’ve received their food, then allow the strong adults in.”

Fu Zhengnan didn’t agree with her idea.

In a calm tone, he reminded her,

“You can’t guarantee that after receiving their rations, the children and elderly won’t be robbed once they step outside.”

“If you’re going to do this, treat everyone equally. Distribute food in the order they arrive.”

Jiang Qingqing understood his reasoning.

But…

“What about the troublemakers? There will definitely be people trying to steal food and cut in line.”

Fu Zhengnan, having finished applying the medicine, stopped his movements.

He got up and walked over to the dining table.

Pulling out a chair, he gestured for her to sit.

“Eat first. I’ll give you something afterward.”

The moment she heard about a gift, Jiang Qingqing forgot all her earlier awkwardness. She quickly pulled her clothes back in place and ran over excitedly.

Yay! Another treasure!

—

Half an hour later, Jiang Qingqing walked out of the room carrying a box of anesthetic darts, still in a daze.

She just had a meal with the divine being?!

And he’s actually a seven- or eight-year-old kid?!

My god!

She didn’t just eat—she even took a whole box of treasures with her!

Looking at the little pouch Fu Zhengnan had refilled for her, she was overjoyed.

The moment she returned to the palace, she would build him a temple!

A grand shrine for generations to worship!

This is amazing!

Humming a tune, Jiang Qingqing went to find Jiang Yu and Xu Jifeng.

Arriving at the main hall, she set down her things. Under everyone’s puzzled gazes, she explained,

“This thing is incredible. One shot, and it’ll take someone down.”

“As for the ones who get hit, they’ll wake up in half an hour—completely unharmed.”
