In the micro-world, Chen Yang and his group suddenly found themselves in a predicament.
The torrential rain lasted for three days, leaving everything wet, forcing them to leave the micro-realm. Inside, it was damp and cold, and a waste of food and energy. Not worth it.
However, while Chen Yang and his team were in trouble, the others were doing very well.
Li Su'er and Wang Bing have already started preparing for tea picking. Wang Bing's daughter, Guo Xinyi, is also getting along very well with Bai Jing. She is aware of the problems at home, so she doesn't mind that her father finds another woman who is good to him.
However, Guo Xinyi calls Bai Jing "sister," and Bai Jing is happy to be called that, which makes Guo Zifeng feel quite helpless.
Chen Tianming and Wang Qin found the camp where Chen Yang and his group were located by following the path they had described.
While the Loess Plateau was shrouded in rain, the Tianyin Mountains were largely unaffected; the sky was overcast, and a few drops of rain occasionally drifted by. Chen Tianming and his team continued constructing the transit camp.
Furthermore, Wang Qin also found a shortcut that leads directly to the foot of the Tianyin Mountain Range, which will greatly save time next time she comes.
After so many days of renovations, the Xindu Camp is finally nearing completion, with about two more days until it is fully finished. Today, Ding Qihan's younger sister, Ding Aiqi, finally entered the Micro Realm.
Ding Qihan was in great pain because he couldn't personally welcome his sister. However, after Hou Yu's father's quota took effect, he could no longer bear the thought of having to keep it a secret from his sister every day, so he had no choice but to let Ding Aiqi enter the Micro World first.
Ding Aiqi's adaptability was beyond imagination. She accepted the existence of the micro-world without even logging out of the confirmation process, and also learned that her brother was out exploring. She volunteered to take care of the small animals.
"I didn't expect there to be a child younger than me in this micro-world. Isn't it said that the existence of the micro-world cannot be revealed? How can such a young child be kept a secret?" Ding Aiqi was very surprised when she saw Chen Liu.
"Sister, I'm not trying to discourage you, but with my intelligence, I wouldn't make such a basic mistake," Chen Liu said calmly to Ding Aiqi, leaving Ding Aiqi completely dumbfounded.
There are still plenty of people in the camp. Hong Gui has temporarily put aside his blacksmithing work and returned to the camp to help. The conflict between Li Sen and the others has also eased a lot.
Chen Yang and the others had agreed not to enter the Micro Realm during the torrential rain, but Chen Yang entered the Micro Realm again at dusk because he was suffering from insomnia in the real world.
Looking at the muddy yellow earth soaked by the rain, the rain obscured his vision. Even with Eagle Eyes, his field of vision was still very limited. In this weather, there was no trace of any living creature.
Apart from the sound of rain, there was nothing at this moment. When the sound of rain was ignored, the world seemed to become incredibly quiet.
Chen Yang felt inexplicably at ease when he was in the micro-world, a feeling that occasionally made him panic because it was a sign of escaping reality.
After sitting by the fire in a daze for a long time, Chen Yang exited the micro-world, picked up his phone in reality, and then put it down again.
He took a shower in the bathroom, and feeling refreshed, he picked up his phone again and bought the earliest train ticket to Shanghai.
The next day, when everyone at the Microworld Inn got up, they found a note on the table.
“I’m going on a trip, don’t worry about me – Chen Yang.”
"Why did you suddenly go on a trip without even saying goodbye?" Ye Wu muttered.
Jiang Yining was also a little puzzled and said, "Is it because of the continuous heavy rains on the Loess Plateau these past few days that Brother Yang felt depressed and decided to go out and have some fun?"
"Why don't you just send a message and ask?" Wang Bing said, then took out his phone and sent a message to Chen Yang. Chen Yang replied in just a fraction of a second.
"It was an automated reply saying he was playing online and not to be disturbed," Wang Bing said.
Li Su'er sat on the sofa, and she suddenly felt uneasy, a feeling that made her very uncomfortable.
…………
At HZ East Station, Chen Yang boarded the high-speed train to Shanghai. HZ is really close to Shanghai, it feels a bit like taking a bus, and we'll be there soon.
Chen Yang didn't bring anything, not even a bag, and just took his phone and wallet to Shanghai by high-speed rail.
The mornings in Shanghai aren't exactly crisp and clear; smog stubbornly battles the low temperatures. By 8 a.m., Shanghai is already bustling with activity. Mo Xi finished washing up at this time and went into the kitchen to prepare breakfast for her son.
Xiao Chenliu was already sitting on the sofa in the living room watching TV, but he wasn't watching cartoons; he was watching documentaries. Chenliu had been sleeping in his own room by himself for the past six months.
Mo Xi was already used to her son's habit of waking up early and his hobbies that were different from those of his peers. She greeted Chen Liu and went to prepare breakfast.
"Son, are you going to your English class today?" Mo Xi asked.
Chen Liu shook his head and said, "No need. My spoken English is already better than the teacher's. The rest is just a matter of building up my vocabulary. In about half a month, I should be able to communicate with foreigners without any problems."
Mo Xi shook her head with a wry smile. She felt that Chen Liu's recent growth rate was too astonishing, which made her somewhat uneasy. She knew that this was probably related to Chen Liu's experiences every night.
"So what do you want to do today?"
"Let's go to the history museum. I want to learn about the lives of people in ancient times."
It's unusual for a child who's almost five years old to be interested in the lives of people from ancient times, but it doesn't seem so strange in the case of Chen Liu.
"Then I'll take you there, and Li Si will stay with you. Mom will have lunch with you then."
"OK."
Chen Liu turned off the TV, quickly finished his breakfast, and went out with Mo Xi, carrying his small backpack filled with notebooks and candy.
A middle-aged man, nearing fifty, wearing a suit, stood at the door waiting for them.
"Uncle Li, I'm going to the History Museum today, will you come with me?" Chen Liu said to the man.
The man Chen Liu called Uncle Li nodded, pinched Chen Liu's little cheek affectionately, and said, "Taking care of you is the easiest task."
"Li Si, please take us to the history museum first, then I'll drive to the company and come find you during lunchtime," Mo Xi said.
“Yes, boss.” The man nodded.
He had only been Mo Xi's driver for a little over a year, but he had known her for more than a decade. He had met Mo Xi when she was just a little girl in his early twenties, when he first became the Mo family's driver.
He always felt sorry for Mo Xi and the child. If Mo Xi hadn't chosen to give birth to the child, perhaps she could have done better now. But who would regret giving birth to such a smart child?
"Xiao Xi, are you going to the company? Let's go together."
A Porsche suddenly stopped next to Mo Xi's car, and a young man inside smiled at Mo Xi.
This man was quite handsome, with a high nose, sharp eyebrows, bright eyes, and well-defined facial features. He was also well-dressed and had a charming smile, no less attractive than some popular celebrities. In addition, he owned a car worth millions. If he invited a girl to get in his car on the street, the chances of her refusing would be almost zero.
"No, I need to take Chenliu to the History Museum," Mo Xi said, shaking her head in polite refusal.
"As expected of Xiao Chenliu, he's different from his peers. Let the driver take him there. I'll give you a ride to the company so you don't have to take a detour."
Mo Xi frowned. "I won't trouble you."
“How could it be troublesome? What kind of relationship do our two families have? I…” The man stopped mid-sentence because he saw Mo Xi staring blankly in a certain direction.
He had never seen Mo Xi, who was known as the Ice Queen in the industry, show such an expression. He even saw Mo Xi's lips trembling and her eyes becoming moist.
Mo Xi was caught off guard by the man who suddenly appeared before her, so much so that Chen Liu tugged at her clothes before she came to her senses.
She glanced at Chen Liu, then at the man before her, and after a moment, a smile appeared on her face that was hard to describe as either bitter or happy.
"Son, call me Dad."
