Night had fallen.
Yang Shen walked to the bus station in the west of Heyang County. It was indeed very close to his home, only a ten-minute walk away. Yang An's suggestion that he could walk back was correct.
He took out his phone and glanced at the time. The last bus from Haishi to Heyang County should be arriving soon, so he stood at the door and waited.
Heyang County is really too small. Perhaps it was a predestined connection from a previous life, but as soon as Yang Shen stood at the door, he saw Liang Yueqin carrying a suitcase and holding a little girl as she walked out of the station.
At this time, Liang Yueqin was young and beautiful, exuding an undisguised aura of a young married woman. It was clear that she came from a well-off family, because her hands were fair and her skin was delicate, showing no signs of having done rough work.
However, in her previous life, she was such a seemingly weak woman who had never suffered, yet she persevered and became the leader of the survivors' community in the south of the city.
Although her supernatural abilities played a role, Liang Yueqin's own efforts cannot be ignored.
The apocalypse is extremely cruel, but it can also easily forge truly talented individuals.
Liang Yueqin spotted Yang Shen at the door immediately, but she didn't recognize him at the time. The two acted as if they were strangers and passed each other by.
"Liang Yueqin".
Yang Shen suddenly spoke.
Liang Yueqin paused, stopped, looked at Yang Shen, and politely smiled, "Hello, do we know each other?"
Yang Shen looked at the little girl in Liang Yueqin's arms, who looked to be only four or five years old.
He vividly recalled that a survivor in the South City Camp had mentioned that Liang Yueqin's child had died at the hands of infected people after the disaster struck. Therefore, Liang Yueqin placed her affections on other helpless ordinary people and used her superpowers to protect other ordinary survivors.
"Uncle, do you know my mommy?" the little girl in Liang Yueqin's arms asked.
"The child is very cute."
Yang Shen smiled and said, "I feel a connection with this child, so I'll give her a gift."
As he spoke, he stretched out his hand, and in the process, the energy of heaven and earth gathered and quickly condensed and transformed into a Guanyin pendant in his hand.
He gave the Guanyin pendant to the little girl to wear around her neck.
Liang Yueqin didn't notice the Guanyin pendant appearing out of thin air, but she could tell at a glance that it was extraordinary, because it was emitting a faint glow under the light.
She wanted to refuse, because accepting such a precious gift without a reason made her uneasy.
Strangely, she found herself unable to move and could only watch helplessly as Yang Shen put the Guanyin pendant around her daughter's neck.
"Don't leave the children, and you will be fine."
Yang Shen smiled and said something before walking into the bus station.
Liang Yueqin finally came to her senses and hurriedly tried to take off the pendant from her daughter's neck and return it to the strange stranger. However, the next moment, she broke out in a cold sweat.
Because there was nothing on her daughter's neck, everything before seemed like an illusion.
"Xiaoqin, you haven't left yet? What's wrong?"
At this moment, a man carrying a huge suitcase walked out of the station. This man was Liang Yueqin's husband.
"Oh, it's nothing, maybe I'm hallucinating." Liang Yueqin glanced into the station but couldn't find Yang Shen, so she said this.
"What hallucination? What just happened?" Liang Yueqin's husband asked, puzzled.
...
"My beloved, have you arrived yet?"
Inside the station, Yang Shen called his sister to ask her questions.
"We're here, we're here. Wait for me at the door." Yang Hongyan's tone seemed rather unfriendly.
Just as Yang Shen hung up the phone, Yang Hongyan walked out of the station exit carrying a blue backpack.
That year, Yang Hongyan was only fifteen years old. She had a delicate face and a curvaceous figure, and her whole being exuded the youthful aura of a young girl.
Upon seeing Yang Shen, Yang Hongyan paused, seemingly recalling the text message he had sent during the day. A hint of unease flashed across her face, but she quickly walked over, lifted Yang Shen's left sleeve, and seeing the almost scabbed wound on his arm, she playfully slapped him.
"Are you crazy? You're going to cut yourself. You've really ruined my life this time. I have a test tonight, and I couldn't even get permission from the homeroom teacher to be absent. Now I'm basically skipping class."
Yang Hongyan's expression was not good, and she glared angrily at Yang Shen.
However, Yang Shen smiled and changed the subject without any pressure: "Your parents are probably still waiting for you at home for dinner, let's go."
"snort!"
Seeing the tender look in her brother's eyes, Yang Hongyan couldn't help but shiver.
"You're such a siscon!"
She snorted and strode out of the bus station. She knew that her beauty was unparalleled, and even her brother was infatuated with her. It was such a problem; being too beautiful wasn't a good thing.
Yang Shen sensed Yang Hongyan's emotions and almost laughed.
There are always many taxis parked at the station entrance because this is where the most passengers are.
Yang Shen got into a taxi first and gestured with his chin toward Yang Hongyan.
Yang Hongyan hesitated for a moment, but still got into the car. However, she was thinking about how to solve her brother's incurable sister complex: "Should I dress less attractively in front of him in the future?"
Yang Shen: "Xinning Residential Area".
Driver: "Okay, passengers, buckle up."
The taxi started moving.
Looking at his sister beside him, who seemed preoccupied, Yang Shen suddenly asked, "You really don't remember anything?"
"ah?"
Yang Hongyan snapped out of her reverie and asked in confusion, "Remember what?"
"What did you dream about before?" Yang Shen asked again.
“Who remembers things in dreams so clearly?” Yang Hongyan pouted, then subconsciously tapped her chin with her index finger. “But this dream… seems very strange.”
