In her previous life, Yu Bai was not only miserably killed by her boyfriend and his cheating partner, but her mother, younger brother, and four older brothers also suffered tragic fates, some dying...
After delivering the specially made calming incense to Fan Qi and Zhou Ying, Yu Bai left the hospital.
Night had already fallen, the street lights were dim, and the air was filled with the coolness of early autumn.
She glanced at her watch and saw that it was getting late. It seemed that her plan to visit Mr. Li Baizhong would have to be postponed.
Mr. Li is old, and it is really inappropriate to visit him at this time.
With a turn of the steering wheel, the white car merged into the traffic flow and drove towards a nearby large chain supermarket with bright lights.
There was a decent flow of people in the supermarket. Yu Bai pushed the shopping cart and moved between the shelves with a clear goal.
Biscuits, bread, instant noodles, self-heating rice, bottled water, functional drinks, fresh fruits... She put anything that could quickly replenish energy and was easy to store into the car without hesitation.
This sweep of purchases took a full three hours.
By the time she drove back to the apartment building with a trunk full of supplies, it was already late at night. The electronic clock was ticking relentlessly, showing that it was past eleven o'clock.
The moonlight was cut into pieces by the tall buildings. The community was quiet, with only a few houses still having lights on.
But Yu Bai didn't care about his fatigue. As soon as he got home, he entered the space.
She piled the purchased supplies in one place. The dazzling array of food packaging looked particularly tempting against the bright background of the space.
Then, she shouted, "Han Yi!"
Almost as soon as he finished speaking, Han Yi's figure came quickly from a distance, with obvious fatigue on his face, but his eyes were still sharp.
When he saw the mountains of food and drinking water, a relieved smile finally appeared on his tense face, and his voice was a little hoarse.
"Ms. Yu, thank you for your timely help every time."
"Han Yi, there's no need to be so polite between us." Yu Bai spoke concisely with a smile on his face.
Han Yi nodded heavily, said no more, and left with the food.
What his team needs most now is to stabilize morale, and sufficient food is undoubtedly the best booster.
When the team members saw so much food, their eyes lit up with surprise, and their previous decadence and despair were swept away.
Watching Han Yi's back as he hurriedly left with the last batch of supplies, tranquility returned to the space.
Yu Bai did not leave immediately.
She walked to the ancient and heavy east gate, took a deep breath, cleared her throat, and called out to the empty doorway: "Master Fusu? Master Fusu is here?"
The space was silent, with only Yu Bai's voice echoing in front of the east gate.
She waited for a moment, wondering if Fusu had disappeared again.
The heavy bronze door suddenly creaked open slowly, and a cool breeze mixed with a faint jade fragrance blew in.
Fusu, dressed in black, walked calmly out of the doorway. His eyes were gentle, yet a little tired.
Obviously, this young man from the Qin Dynasty did not rest just now.
"Miss Yu, do you need me for something?" He spoke in a calm tone, but his eyes fell on the large boxes at her feet.
Yu Bai pointed at the box and without exchanging pleasantries, he got straight to the point: "This is the book you requested last time. I promised you that, and I can't go back on my word."
As she spoke, she opened the box, revealing a stack of brand new books.
"Principles of Mechanics", "Basics of Electricity", "Modern Agricultural Technology", "Introduction to Building Structures"...all are technical reference books.
There was also a large and extremely heavy book with a bright red cover, which was wrapped in a layer of plastic film.
"This one..."
It seems different from the others, and it is obvious that Yu Bai attaches great importance to it.
"Selected Works of Mao Zedong."
A smile appeared on Yu Bai's lips.
"He's one of the most powerful people here. You can see that he has his own views on the way of emperors and governing the country and ensuring the people's safety."
"Don't you like reading history? This will definitely broaden your horizons."
Fusu immediately became interested when he heard this. He bent down, picked up the book, and nodded solemnly.
"I will study it carefully."
