Mo Chenzhi handled the rest, and the engagement banquet between the two continued.

Numerous large and small yellow croakers and antique jade artifacts were found in both of the Hu family's properties.

There was also a radio station, which made things serious and attracted everyone's attention.

Incidentally, they also discovered the person behind their family, who turned out to be an inconspicuous person working for a high-ranking leader.

No one expected that person to have been lying in wait all these years.

This time, another bloodbath ensued, with the Mo family and the Liu family launching a major purge.

In the afternoon, Mo Yucheng suddenly received a call from the top leader, and he took Song Yining with him.

The two had a pleasant conversation, and Song Yining simply shared her thoughts.

Working in the pharmaceutical industry was also tough; back then, Shen Junjie and Mo Yucheng were frequently on missions.

Since I happened to be learning about this subject, I adopted some of my grandfather's ideas.

I tried making some myself and let them try it out and see if it worked.

Little did she know that her unintentional act would pave the way for a new chapter in her life.

Soldiers are bound to get injured on missions, and the little bit of knowledge they've learned can come in handy, so they prepare the necessary medicines.

Actually, I hope they never have to use it; that would be the best outcome.

The medicines that Song Yining prepared for treating injuries caught the attention of a high-ranking leader, who wanted to order some from her.

They can produce most common medicines, but some of their anti-inflammatory drugs are made with their own proprietary formulas.

Song Yining didn't give them to them, but she could provide them to the military over the past few years.

This also improved the living conditions of local farmers, which sounds like a good thing.

Song Yining didn't have that much of a saintly heart to give away her ancestors' hard work to the country for free.

There are too many parasites these days, so it's safer to keep the goods in your own hands.

The concerns were raised, and everyone agreed, since some issues were identified today.

The senior leader was aware of Song Yining's concerns, so he didn't bring up the topic again.

Unexpectedly, the leadership found that corrupt official; there were such officials in the military as well.

Especially on the border, something unusual was discovered.

Song Yining didn't want her achievements to end up in the hands of those people.

This was the only way to protect ourselves, and we could cooperate with the country after the reform and opening up.

They chatted happily for an afternoon. After Mo Yucheng came out, he looked at the girl and said, "From now on, I'm going to be living off you. You're so outstanding that I can only work harder."

The next day they went to Song Yining's mansion, which was always maintained.

Just like in modern television dramas, it features small bridges, flowing water, carved beams and painted pillars—a quintessential garden-style courtyard house.

Everyone who went inside exclaimed in admiration, for this was a place that only wealthy families could live in in the past.

It has always been maintained and well protected, without any damage whatsoever.

This was also requested privately by several bigwigs; they also had their own ulterior motives.

After they return to Beijing, they can frequently come to Song Yining's place for help with their health care.

Song Yining was also aware of the thoughts of the others and her own personal feelings towards these bigwigs.

I was happy to see it happen; how could I not agree to their request?

These people are all meritorious; how could I possibly refuse them?

Take that house for example. In a few decades, it will be priceless and unavailable. You won't be able to buy it whenever you want.

After the Song family finished visiting the courtyard house, Mo Yuming still helped look after it.

After all, Song Yining still needs to return to her unit for the next few months, and she plans to come back to join the military after the two get married.

After the visit, everyone returned to the courtyard house in Moyu City to discuss their return the next day, since Song Chengzhi and Zhang Lan still had to go back to work.

Mo Yucheng and Song Yining are now engaged, and they are returning to Qin Province tomorrow.

The two returned home late, and Mo Yucheng looked at the girl with reluctance.

Song Yining said irritably, "It's only been a little over three months, it'll be over soon."

The next day, after seeing Song Yining and the Song family off, Mo Yucheng received a new mission.

When Song Yining left again, she also made herself look bad, just like when she came.

It's safer to sit on the train like this; thankfully, I'm in a sleeper berth this time.

Once on the train, there were very few people in the sleeper compartment; most of them were seated passengers.

After getting on the bus, Song Yining sat in her seat and opened a book to read.

Just as the train was about to depart, a man carrying a briefcase slowly approached.

His seat was on the upper bunk opposite her. The man saw that it was a girl, but he didn't pay any attention and quickly went up to the upper bunk.

Two more people arrived shortly afterward, neither of them looking too happy, and they found their seats.

They quickly put their things down, and only then did they feel relieved.

Seeing that someone had already gone to bed and was reading a book, the two of them quickly and quietly put their things away.

"Oh dear! This is exhausting! Luckily we made it in time, otherwise we would have missed it. It's such a waste of the sleeper berths we were given."

"That's right. Let's rest for a bit. We still have a few days left. This time we can finally go home properly."

The two whispered to each other for a while, and then went to rest in their respective seats on Monday.

Beijing is a major station with a lot of people coming and going, so the passageway is constantly bustling with people.

Song Yining and the others were quiet and peaceful, resting without saying a word.

When we arrived at the next stop, another man came into the compartment, carrying a suitcase carefully.

Seeing that only the top bunk was empty, the man looked around and quickly put his things down.

The man treasured his suitcase and simply left it inside his bed.

He lay down, holding his suitcase in one hand. This man was very protective of it; even the slightest footstep would trigger a reaction from him.

This sense of vigilance made Song Yining pay attention to the movements of the man opposite her.

The following stations were all small, with each stop lasting only five minutes. The train clattered along, and Song Yining was no longer sleepy.

She was just pretending to sleep, and the man next to her would stop at each station.

They all had to be alert and wake up, noticing that the man was already sweating slightly.

In the latter half of the night, the man couldn't help but fall asleep. The carriage was very quiet, with only the clattering of the train.

Song Yining felt a sense of crisis again. Every time she had this feeling, it meant that something bad was about to happen.

Song Yining looked at the man's suitcase thoughtfully, thinking that she could see through things and see what was inside.

The feeling around them grew stronger and stronger. Seeing that the man was sleeping soundly, they could only try to find a way to wake him up as soon as possible.

Song Yining had her personal belongings next to her, and was looking at the half-eaten oil paper.

Immediately, a sound was made, and only then did the man next to him show signs of waking up.

Feeling groggy, I touched the box beside me and realized I had fallen asleep. I quickly sat up and rubbed my face.
