When Song Yining went to sleep that night, she entered her space and saw that the animals she had stocked up on the mountain that day were all living in an orderly manner.
Once inside the space, the learning tasks began again. I haven't practiced self-defense properly lately, so I need to study harder.
Zhang Wulang hasn't appeared since Shen Junjie's last visit, and nobody knows what he's been up to.
Shen Junjie was on an urgent mission to Guang Sheng this time, and since he was fluent in several languages, he was the perfect candidate.
They secretly smuggled themselves to Hong Kong Island to carry out another rendezvous mission.
A Chinese-American PhD student in the US wants to donate his life's work to his country.
Forced by circumstances, he was unable to return to China alone and had no choice but to come to Hong Kong Island to carry out liaison duties.
Shen Junjie came over and found out where they were going today. He then sneaked into the restaurant and became a waiter.
Today, everyone here is a prominent figure in Hong Kong, a powerful family with connections in both the legitimate and underworld circles.
Shen Junjie and his companions had infiltrated the circle early on, moving among the wealthy.
Today is the annual social gathering of the city's high society, hosted by the Chamber of Commerce.
The Shen family, as a rising star in Hong Kong, should not be underestimated. It just so happens that Uncle Ji is here today to send his hard work back to China.
There are many people here who are looking for partners to communicate with, and it's also convenient to sell their own products.
The Shen family also used a secret code that hadn't been activated for a long time, ensuring they could successfully take away those precious research materials today.
Ji Shubo had started doing these things several years ago, and he had been hiding his health problems from everyone.
Going abroad back then was a last resort. I've been wandering for almost thirty years, and I don't even know how my girlfriend is doing.
The two secretly tasted the forbidden fruit back then, and not long after, his family secretly took him abroad.
When I woke up, I had already escaped the inland and arrived in the United States.
He deeply regretted not bringing his girlfriend along, but there was nothing he could do about it now.
Having wandered for nearly thirty years, I can never forget Ji Shuya's face; his every smile and frown is etched in my mind.
He has maintained his chastity for so many years, and he feels a physical aversion to beautiful women.
His family tried countless methods to cure his illness, but none of them worked, so they gradually gave up.
Now he's the only one left in this world. I wonder how Shuya is doing. She must be married and have children by now.
It's laughable to think about it now. How could I have the right to think about these things? Shuya gave me her most precious time.
Now that I've become like this, it's my way of atoning for my sins. I hope Shuya won't be angry about my leaving without saying goodbye.
What's wrong with me today? Sitting in the car on the way to the hotel, scenes from back then keep popping up.
Perhaps it's because I'm close to the inland that I'm feeling homesick again!
Ji Shubo shook his head and smiled bitterly. Dr. Li Yu, who was driving, looked at Ji Shubo. His mood had been fluctuating all day.
Li Yu was a servant in their family and had always helped manage the family business. This time, they came to let him make an appearance and let everyone get to know him.
After all, he would have to keep the company running after I left, and I had given him shares.
He had watched Li Yu grow up, and when he made this decision, he had already thought about what would happen to him afterward.
Upon arriving at the hotel, they went inside, and the head of the chamber of commerce invited them in, as they were a powerful company from the United States and therefore qualified to do so.
Shen Guoliang and Shen Zhiyang, along with their eldest grandson Shen Xiangbei, also arrived at this time. Ji Shubo and the three generations of the Shen family got to know each other.
They went inside, exchanged pleasantries for a while, and then each went to find their respective partners.
Ji Shubo could tell from their accents that they weren't native to Hong Kong, and the group started chatting.
Upon learning that they were from the same place as me, I felt an immense sense of kinship.
Those who are away from home feel an immense sense of warmth and familiarity when they see a country or a city.
At this time, Shen Junjie came in as an intern. Although he was almost thirty years old, he didn't look his age.
When Shen Junjie appeared in the private room, he was stunned when he saw the two men sitting inside.
These weren't his adoptive father and older brother, but the soldier's reaction immediately returned to normal; he poured them drinks.
When Shen Junjie saw the man he had been chatting with, he couldn't stay calm. How come this real man looks just like him!
At this moment, Ji Shubo looked at Shi Yisheng pouring wine and wondered why he was so similar to himself.
Those who contacted Ji Shubo saw the direction Shen Junjie had just entered, which was the person they were looking for today.
Shen Junjie was unsure why the man he had just seen looked so much like himself.
I was also thrilled to run into my adoptive father and older brother here.
We still need to find the eldest brother to come out and ask what's going on. The contact person here is surnamed Shen. Could he be our adoptive father?
Shen Junjie returned, bringing in the fruit platter that the hotel had provided for the private room that day. While pouring wine for Shen Zhiyang, he accidentally spilled some.
Shen Junjie kept apologizing and scratched his palm a few more times, making the three sheep's scalps tingle. This was a move that he and his younger brother loved to do since they were little.
Although my younger brother was adopted by my father, he was the illegitimate son of one of my mother's close friends. My father's whereabouts are unknown, and my mother died after secretly giving birth to him.
After learning that her younger sister had secretly given birth and died, the mother immediately took the baby home.
However, when he was eleven years old, he did not choose to escape with his adoptive parents, but instead chose to live in China.
When the Shen family left, he chose to go north to study, and it was Yan Lao who entrusted his friend Liu Lao's family to take care of Shen Junjie.
Shen Zhiyang recognized the trainee from earlier; he could still clearly see his general outline.
Under the pretense of going to the restroom, they went inside together without saying a word, using the secret code they had played since childhood.
Although there is an age difference between them, and they are only a few years apart from his son, they have a very good relationship at home.
Both of them were excited, but they had important matters to attend to, so they didn't exchange any more pleasantries.
A silent reunion confirmed that they were the people they were looking for. After the initial excitement, they maintained their distance and returned to their respective posts.
After exchanging pleasantries, the group gathered in the lobby to network with the industry leaders who had arrived.
Shen Guoliang had been waiting for someone on the other side of the river to contact him, but he never expected to be greeted by the student he had just met.
Noticing the strange look in his son's eyes, Shen Zhiyang whispered to his father, "That's Shen Junjie, the person we're in contact with this time."
Hearing this, Shen Guoliang finally felt relieved. No wonder he looked familiar when he first saw him.
