The WhiteLight faded, and the familiar dormitory ceiling came into view.

Yu Lin exhaled half a breath, and before he could stretch his limbs, a burst of flashing light erupted at the Ding Pattern.

"Number up, number up!" Dragon Lord leapt forward, his claws impatiently tugging at the Computer's power switch.

Kirin followed closely, its tail whipping the air: "Alright!"

White Tiger, more pragmatic, turned his head toward the Jiuwei Tianhu who had just emerged from another Ding Pattern, grooming its fur:

"Sister Zhi? Want to join? We'll give you escort!"

Tu Shan Zhi halted, glanced at the screen flashing with a game interface, and decisively flicked her tail: "No."

Her voice was cool, "I'm going outside to take a look."

As she spoke, radiant light swirled around her, the massive fox body swiftly contracted and transformed into human form.

Perhaps fully aware that her true form was irresistibly enchanting and could invite unwanted trouble, she did not reveal her peerless beauty, instead taking the appearance of a delicate, clean‑aura young woman in simple ancient attire.

She turned to head for the door, but Yu Lin gently grasped her wrist.

"Hmm?" Tu Shan Zhi tilted her head, eyes asking, "What's up?"

"Your clothes differ from modern people's…" Yu Lin examined her from head to toe; though she had transformed, the style details still differed slightly from contemporary fashion, and more importantly:

"Don't rush out yet, here, look at this." He pulled out several plainly bound books and slipped them into Tu Shan Zhi's arms.

"Social Survival Guide," "Basic Legal Knowledge," "Five Minutes to Understand Mobile Payments" …

Tu Shan Zhi raised an eyebrow at the titles, but did not refuse.

"Read them for a basic grasp," Yu Lin handed over a bank card:

"Take it, spend as you wish. Then go straight to the Civil Affairs Bureau headquarters reception; someone will set up your household registration, ID, and so on."

He paused, "That's all for now."

"Call me if you need anything."

Tu Shan Zhi tucked the books and card away, nodding, "Alright, thank you, master."

As the words faded, she bent down to skim the top guide while pushing the door open and stepping out.

After she left, Yu Lin felt his stomach empty and simply went out to find food.

He found a nearby bustling little restaurant; just after ordering a few dishes and taking a few bites, his pocket phone vibrated.

He pulled it out and saw "Bai Xiaoxia" flashing on the screen.

He answered, and a lively, obviously cheerful voice rang out, "Yu bro!"

"What's up?" Yu Lin picked up a piece of food with his chopsticks.

"Yu bro! There's a wedding the day after tomorrow, I'd like to invite you to attend, okay?" Bai Xiaoxia's voice was full of anticipation.

"Hmm?" Yu Lin's chopsticks paused:

"Yours? Who's getting married?"

"Hehe, Yu bro, you guessed spot on!" Bai Xiaoxia laughed a little shyly:

"As for who… didn't we go on a business trip to Yingguo back then? It was that, uh, the one who initially had a bit of a tiff with us… Windsor."

"Yo heh," Yu Lin was genuinely surprised, recalling that proud Windsor.

"You and her really got together? I remember you really hated her back then."

"Ah, we were young and clueless then!" Bai Xiaoxia's tone carried a sweet‑tinged regret:

"Actually she's really nice! You didn't know, later we…"

On the other end, Bai Xiaoxia began rambling, recounting how the two went from disliking each other, through various events that led to gradual understanding, then accidental cooperation and mutual aid, finally realizing each other's feelings.

Yu Lin ate while listening, occasionally responding twice.

After hearing that dramatic "love‑hate" tale, Yu Lin smiled, "Alright, where's it the day after tomorrow? I'll be there on time and bring you a big gift."

"Alright! Thanks, Yu bro!" Bai Xiaoxia was thrilled:

"I'll text you the address later! I can also send a car to pick you up if needed!"

"No need, I'll go myself."

"Alright then… hehe, I won't disturb you while you eat! See you the day after tomorrow!"

"Hmm, see you the day after tomorrow."

He hung up, set the phone aside, stroked his chin, and murmured, "Windsor family… Yingguo royal family. Bai Xiaoxia, that kid, now basically 'married into' a wealthy house?"

He recalled Bai Xiaoxia's current position at the Civil Affairs Bureau and his own cultivation level, then shook his head:

"But with Xiao Bai's present abilities and potential, who's really reaching up to whom, it's hard to say."

He smiled, stopped overthinking, and refocused his attention on the food before him.

Yu Lin told me to also attend the wedding, today's first post, hehe
