After seeing off all their relatives and friends, Jiang Shuyao and Hao Yuanchao also returned to their new home.
Although the new house has been tidied, there are still many things missing. On the one hand, it is because it is a new house. On the other hand, the two of them will leave here soon and there is no need to add too many things. They have to move in less than a month. It is inconvenient to carry too many things on the road. In this era, transportation is not well developed and express delivery is not convenient. It is best to travel light. Therefore, except for daily necessities such as bed, wardrobe, table, thermos, quilt, clothes, there is really nothing else, especially the kitchen, which is empty. You can tell at a glance that they don't plan to cook.
However, Hao Yuanchao still felt that he had to prepare two pairs of chopsticks and a small stove. It was okay to eat in the cafeteria every day, but if he wanted to have a midnight snack occasionally, he could cook some noodles himself so that he wouldn't go hungry or eat dry food. He could have something warm to eat.
Jiang Shuyao was about to stop him. She had her own space, a large open kitchen with all the utensils she needed. For the two years after their breakup, she'd mostly cooked her own meals in the villa, only occasionally dining out and rarely ordering takeout. Cooking for herself naturally meant buying what she needed; she wasn't short of money. And the food she'd stored in the refrigerator could still be used. She'd discovered that storing food in the kitchen kept it fresh, even better than a refrigerator. Whatever you put in was the same as what you took out. It was amazing.
Hao Yuanchao disagreed. "We can just eat the food in that space quietly, but we still have to pretend to be there at home, otherwise it will easily arouse suspicion. You forget, catching spies is very difficult these days, and everyone is a detective. We should not use that space if we can."
The nationwide campaign to catch spies was no joke. The country had only been established for a short time during that period and was implementing socialist policies. The West was eyeing them covetously, and internally, the country had not recovered its territory. The other side of the strait was ready to counterattack the mainland at any time. With internal and external troubles, the people were on high alert for this hard-earned peace. Anything a little unusual would attract scrutiny. If you wanted to avoid trouble, it was best not to use space at will. It was okay at home because technology was not as advanced as in later generations, so there was no need to worry about cameras being installed inside. However, people would leave traces as long as they moved. If someone with sharp eyes deduced that something was wrong with them from the clues, then they would be in big trouble.
Jiang Shuyao agreed after hearing this, she was still not cautious enough.
"It's okay, I'll be here for you from now on." Seeing this, Hao Yuanchao hurried to show off himself again. Showing her his abilities more often would allow her to let go and forgive him sooner. It would be best if she behaved well tonight and didn't go against him. The wedding night only comes once in a lifetime, no, including the last life, there is only this one chance in two lives combined, and he doesn't want to miss it at all.
Looking at Hao Yuanchao's throbbing hormones, Jiang Shuyao smiled meaningfully. "Bridal chamber? Sure."
The magnolia trees were replaced by tall trees. The light that was bright just now became much dimmer in the dense woods. The surrounding temperature also dropped slightly. Rabbits could be seen running by in the distance.
Liang Li let go of Song Shuyao, took in the surroundings, and said, "I died here. I was on a mission chasing the enemy to this mountain. We captured the enemy, but I didn't expect there were bombs buried here. The bombs exploded, and when I woke up again, I was on a train and transformed into Hao Yuanchao in 1962. For some reason, this mountain followed me. I can enter it whenever I want."
"Shuyao, I regret it. At the moment of the explosion, I was thinking that if I hadn't insisted on separating from you, could we have spent more time together? Especially during those days in Nanxi Village, I kept thinking about this question every day after dealing with the things left behind by Hao Yuanchao. I don't regret not taking off this military uniform, and I don't regret dying for my country. I only regret not being with you longer." Even if that was more selfish, he still wanted to be with her longer.
Song Shuyao laughed when she heard this. "You only understand now? I never cared about you dying for your country, avenging your comrades, or not retiring. But what I care about is that you abandoned me. How could I have lost my dignity and begged you back then? But you stubbornly broke up with me under the pretext of doing it for my own good! I'm not afraid of your death or being implicated in your revenge, I'm just afraid of being abandoned. I hate being abandoned the most. Don't you know that?! Now you say you regret it. What gives you the right to say that?"
She had used all sorts of tricks back then, but he remained indifferent. Now that he was telling her he regretted it, did he feel unhappy if he didn't stab her in the heart?!
Liang Li was silent. At that time, he had thought about retiring from the army and marrying her. However, before he retired, an error in the information of a mission narrowly escaped death. His best comrade died to protect him, but the enemy escaped. The pain and hatred made him change his mind. He swore an oath under his comrade's tombstone that he would avenge him. He also became afraid and worried that Song Shuyao would be hurt because of him, so he wanted to separate from her despite her soft and hard tactics.
He was hesitant at first, but as the pursuit became more and more difficult, he became determined. After finally catching the enemy, he was actually happy. He thought that if Song Shuyao didn't have anyone else around her and still had feelings for him, he would definitely pursue her again. But who knew that a huge explosion would happen in the end, bringing him back to the year 1962.
Liang Li admitted that he was sorry to Song Shuyao, but since fate gave him another chance, he would grab it this time and never let go. His last thought before death was that he had not been with her longer. Now that he had changed the world and his identity, he didn't want to waste time anymore. He didn't want to delay the present because of the past. Even if she held a grudge and beat or scolded him, it didn't matter. He would not deceive his mind.
