He understood Eden's thoughts, but—Jiang Qiao had no intention of forcing others to do anything.
Even if this was Eden's request later.
Eden readily agreed.
"That's good."
She knows her own character very well.
Having learned everything, my former self would surely have made the right choice.
Of course—she entrusted Jiang Qiao with this task not only because she wanted to prevent her past self from being so ignorant and naive when hardship came, but also because she wanted to prevent her past self from being too lonely.
Because it was himself, Eden knew very well that he hadn't actually been very happy in the past.
A rapidly rising career? The admiration and praise of the world? If she could, she might prefer to exchange these things for meeting Ellie ten years earlier.
The time she spent with Ellie was the happiest time of her life.
However, it seems the genuine one will have to stay in Paradise for the time being. In that case... sending a high-quality replica to my former self should be enough, right?
Thinking of this, Eden glanced at Jiang with a slightly apologetic look—Sorry, Qiao, for the sake of my past self, I can only ask you to make this difficult!
...
Unaware that her "best friend" was engaged in the "bad ginger" trade, Paradise Ellie was communicating with Aponia, while the real Elise, completely oblivious to this, was standing in front of Pado's shop.
"Hey, Boss Qiao, let me introduce you to this! It's a loudspeaker from Sister Wilvi's workshop! Not only can it amplify sound, it can even record! It's affordable, honest and fair, only ██ silver coins!"
"And this, I got it from Ahua's vegetable garden... Anyway, it's all very affordable! The more you buy, the bigger the discount, up to 20% off!"
The stalls were filled with a dazzling array of treasures from various heroes of Paradise. Pado was very attentive in promoting her "goods" to Alicia in her "Jiang Qiao" form. Anyone who saw her would definitely say she was a professional!
Unfortunately, although she was very interested in many of the items, the fat lady could only say she would think about it later. After entering the Paradise of the Past, Alicia successfully experienced the embarrassment she felt when she traveled the world as a child.
Although Pado's shop was indeed good value for money as it claimed—except for a stone priced at 9999 silver coins—Ailishia, who was new to Paradise, couldn't even afford a single coin. She could only look at the pink trumpet she admired and purse her lips.
The cat, who was playing with the canned food with Wendy, suddenly had its eyes light up:
"Hey, Sister Airi!"
Upon hearing this title, Alicia's face darkened, and she looked in the direction of the cat. Sure enough, what came into view was the Alicia that Pado had mentioned.
—My sister's... she's clearly the wicked Jiang Qiao!
Looking at the pink-clad girl, Alicia puffed out her cheeks angrily. She was clearly furious, but she could only manage a forced smile, since there was a cat next to her, and she couldn't let the cat's reaction slip!
Azure's gaze met her 'Jiang Qiao' form's black and purple eyes—after seeing the idiot main body huddled together with Phyllis and a green-haired girl, Paradise Ellie, who came from Aponia, curled her lips into a playful smile.
"Hmm~ Business seems to be doing quite well, Phyllis?"
"Hehe, not at all... It's mainly up to you, Sister Aili, to take care of me." The cat scratched its cheek.
Her shop's biggest customer in Paradise is Alicia, after all, Alicia is the kind of person who likes novel things, and what Pado's shop has no shortage of is this kind of thing - products from the supplier of the Velvi Mechanical Workshop, if they are out of stock, just come and get it.
Next, Pado introduced Wendy to Paradise Ellie—because of Paradise's matching mechanism, the two of them were the first to meet, and Paradise Ellie smiled at Wendy's presence.
"Oh my, what a cute and beautiful girl!"
Wendy is the introverted type, and even after being transformed into a law, she hasn't changed this essential nature.
The two started chatting.
Of course, this inevitably leads to...
Mr. Jiang Qiao, who was left to the side and maintained a smile, gradually developed puffy cheeks.
It was intentional! Absolutely intentional!
You wicked Jiang Qiao! You deliberately left me hanging, weren't you?!
She was chatting enthusiastically with other girls right in front of me—watching the Paradise Alice getting along so well with Wendy, the fat lady's anger bar surged again as she entered the Angry Alice state.
—She has feelings for Wendy too, you know!
After arriving at Phyllis's stall, I also had a lot of conversation with Alicia, my companion whom I didn't talk to much.
I never thought...
I only had a moment to myself, and that wicked Jiang Qiao took advantage of the situation!
This is provocation! This is absolutely provocation!
—Looking at the real body with its eyes blazing but a smile on its face, Paradise Airi revealed a subtle smile.
This scene caught the eye of the fat lady.
boom--!
It seems that some wire has broken.

Chapter 162 [Alicia used Mount Tai Press]
A murderous rage surged within her—if the two were alone at this moment, the furious Miss Ellie wouldn't mind letting the wicked Jiang Qiao experience what 'the wrath of a fairy' truly meant!
But Phyllis and Wendy were there, so...
Alicia deliberately approached 'Bad Jiang Qiao', intending to secretly 'take revenge'.
Unexpectedly, the 'bad Jiang Qiao' she wanted to take revenge on seemed to have guessed her thoughts and took the initiative—grabbing the former's arm and pressing her heavy breasts against it, just like a petite girlfriend.
Now, Alicia, who originally intended to retaliate with 'small tricks,' is instead caught off guard.
That soft feeling was captivating, and even though it was essentially data composed of 'memory', it didn't affect its authenticity. Although this wasn't the first time Alicia had faced such a situation, and she often acted similarly when interacting with other cute girls in the past, being suddenly attacked like this by 'Alicia' was somewhat unexpected for the chubby lady herself.
Of course, Alicia wasn't the only one who reacted to this scene; Wendy and Paddy were also there.
The former reacted less, but seeing the intimate behavior of 'Jiang Qiao (Alicia)' and 'Alicia (Paradise Alicia)', the rather introverted Wendy naturally blushed a little, as did Pado.
Her mouth gaped open, her heterochromatic eyes, like those of a Persian cat, revealing a mixture of fear, shock, and perhaps both.
...Oh my god! Alice is hugging a strange man from outside Paradise!!!
Although Ellie is so kind to everyone, she can only be this intimate with girls... no, even among girls, at least in Pado's memory, it seems that only Eden has received such treatment.
If this scene were seen by others in Paradise, it would probably become big news that even Su couldn't help but widen his eyes!
Alicia, whose brain had been frozen, finally came to her senses and was greeted by 'Bad Jiang Qiao's' smile.
You, you, you, you bad Jiang Qiao, what are you trying to do?!
At this moment, the fat lady's eyes started spinning, filled with chaotic lines, clearly indicating that the CPU had burned out.
However, upon noticing the gazes of Paddo and Wendy beside her, she suddenly realized what was going on!
I understand, Ellie, I understand everything!
This scoundrel is definitely trying to assert his dominance by showing affection between 'Alicia' and 'Jiang Qiao', thus discouraging other girls from pursuing him—he's got someone, so you all better watch out!
In that case, if I want to get close to other pretty girls, I'll definitely be labeled a 'womanizer,' which will greatly increase the obstacles.
At the same time, that wicked Jiang Qiao also tarnished Alicia's reputation. After that, as soon as word got out, everyone would know that Alicia was getting close to a strange man...
Once Alicia understood all of this, she instantly gritted her teeth.
She clearly wanted to get rid of the beautiful girl that Jiang Qiao had secretly dated, and then ruthlessly 'humiliate' Jiang Qiao to get revenge on him, making him pay back double for everything that this scoundrel had done to her. But as soon as her plan started, Jiang Qiao thwarted it in such a 'simple' way—even if it couldn't be called a thwart, the possibility of achieving her revenge plan was further reduced... For all of this, only two words could describe it.
mean.
—You're so despicable, Jiang Qiao!
Having figured everything out, Alicia wanted to retaliate against 'Bad Jiang Qiao', but unfortunately, perhaps because her CPU had just overheated, or perhaps because she simply had no experience dealing with this type of 'enemy', she could only look bewildered.
Meanwhile, 'Bad Jiang Qiao'—Love Land Ellie—unconsciously revealed a pleasant smile.
Although it was just a fleeting idea that came to me after seeing the idiot himself, I never expected it to actually have such an interesting effect.
However, to prevent the fairy in her true form from acting rashly, she took the initiative to let go of Alicia's arms, and then acted quite naturally, as if nothing had happened—which annoyed Alicia somewhat.
Damn it, she had just come up with a great idea to get revenge on this bastard!
—You naughty Jiang Qiao, don't you like hugging me? If you keep hugging me, I'll take this opportunity to give you a good bite.
I've done as you wished, so I'll give you a 'super double' bonus, you bad guy!
