Chapter 76: Uneasy "As your friend, I am here to tell you that...
Qiao Zhizheng briefly explained the whole story.
Qiao Zheng didn't know whether to laugh or cry: "No wonder she had such a misunderstanding."
Qiao Zheng thought that it was fortunate that Xu Xunzhen was tactful and did not ask her directly if she was going to die.
Seeing Qiao Zheng deliberately trying to change the subject, Qiao Zhizheng sniffed and asked, "Why do you do this?"
Don't say anything and don't tell her what you did.
Qiao Zheng was silent for a moment, feeling guilty for once. She looked away and said, "Hmm... isn't it too late?"
Qiao Zhizheng knew what she was thinking and said aggrievedly, "If I hadn't seen it today, would you not have told me?"
Qiao Zheng was silent.
Silence is the best answer.
Qiao Zhizheng was puzzled. "Why? What is there to hide between us?"
Qiao Zheng sighed, spoke a few words to her assistant, then found a small, independent room, closed the door, and leaned against it. She said to Qiao Zhizheng somewhat weakly, "Even though saying this might damage my image in your heart, since you've discovered it..."
Qiao Zhizheng held her breath, her heart beating wildly as she waited for Qiao Zheng's answer.
"I'd be uneasy."
"I'm uneasy."
"I'm very uneasy."
It's funny to say, Qiao Zheng felt that she had lived ten years longer than Qiao Zhizheng. Time stripped away her innocence and replaced her with a mature coat. Her mind was calm and peaceful. But unexpectedly, this time travel happened, and Qiao Zhizheng made this stagnant pool of water turbulent. In getting along with Qiao Zhizheng, Qiao Zheng consciously assumed the responsibility of the elder of the two, clearing obstacles for her, avoiding risks, and protecting her when she was in danger.
Qiao Zheng made herself look so strong and reliable. After getting used to this image, even the sudden hint of vulnerability in her heart seemed shameful and should not be revealed in front of Qiao Zhizheng.
So she even hid her uneasiness very deeply.
Time travel is like a bomb, it comes suddenly, and you are not sure when it will explode. You may also travel back suddenly when you least expect it. Qiao Zheng is used to thinking a lot, and the more she thinks, the more worried she becomes.
Seeing Qiao Zheng's gloomy expression, Qiao Zhizheng reached out and wanted to touch her half-closed eyes, but only touched the cold screen.
Qiao Zhizheng was a staunch materialist before, and so was Qiao Zheng.
But after Qiao Zheng appeared in Qiao Zhizheng's life, both of them became less firm in their materialism.
It is understandable that Qiao Zheng would feel this way.
What about Qiao Zhizheng? Did she have it? Of course she did.
It’s probably just because of their different ages and mindsets. Qiao Zhizheng thinks more about living in the present no matter what tomorrow holds.
well……
Qiao Zhizheng frowned and thought for a while, then suggested, "How about trying the idealist approach?"
Since something as counterintuitive as time travel already exists, perhaps idealistic things like gods and Buddhas also exist?
"Can."
Unfortunately, the two of them used to hold the mentality of "if you believe it, it exists, if you don't believe it, it doesn't exist" and didn't pay much attention to this aspect, nor did they know what was effective.
"Why not ask those directors you know?"
"Yes, you can ask them."
In the entertainment industry, when shooting a supernatural TV series or movie, it is customary to worship ghosts and gods, pray for blessings and avoid disasters, and give red envelopes to the actors to calm their nerves after shooting "death scenes" or scenes involving funerals or ghosts. Or after building a supernatural "haunted house" scene, they will simply place fruits and snacks on the site, give small red envelopes to the staff responsible for the construction, and also stuff red envelopes into shoes to "make everything go smoothly". Most directors keep in touch with each other and have a deep understanding of these things.
I know a lot of directors, and their answers are different.
Xia Cangshu: "I have no experience in filming this kind of movie, so I can't recommend it... What? Okay. Lou Heng said that Huadu's Huahe Palace is quite spiritual, but the way it grants wishes is a bit unorthodox."
Chen Yuzhi: "...I don't really believe in this. But my mom said there's a Taifeng Temple in Xin'an City that's very spiritual."
Qin Qiushui: "Taifeng Temple! Taifeng Temple! Taifeng Temple is the first choice!"
Lin Yiwei: "Yunji Temple, it's very effective for finding love."
This is a bit off topic, but if the time comes and we both want to be together forever... maybe that's okay?
Meng Hanyan: "Of course I went to Taifeng Temple! Once when I was filming a horror film, there was no one in the dressing room late at night, but there were always noises. When I went in, there was no sound, but when I came out, I heard noises. I was so scared~ I immediately went to Taifeng Temple to get some talismans. Hey! Guess what, when I came back, the noises stopped immediately."
…
After asking a lot of people, I concluded that Taifeng Temple is the most preferred choice.
It just so happened that Qiao Zheng's filming location was in the city next to Xin'an City. Qiao Zhizheng couldn't wait any longer, so he asked for leave from Chen Yuzhi and joined the crew two days later. He booked a flight to Xin'an City in the near future, in order to comfort Qiao Zheng's heart as soon as possible, and also to comfort his own heart.
On the plane, Qiao Zhizheng met a strange person who kept looking at her intentionally or unintentionally.
Qiao Zhizheng took a quick look at her and found that she was unfamiliar, so she looked away. It was probably a passerby who recognized her.
After getting off the plane, Qiao Zhizheng walked out through the VIP channel, and the strange man followed her out.
Even after Qiao Zhizheng got into the car that Qiao Zheng came to pick her up, the man was still not far behind her, and even seemed to be walking towards them.
Qiao Zhizheng said to Qiao Zheng, "That person has been following me."
Qiao Zheng thought it was some paparazzi or illegitimate child, so she subconsciously took a look. When she saw it, she was immediately stunned.
Qiao Zhizheng looked at Qiao Zheng's expression and was also stunned. "You know her?"
Before Qiao Zheng could answer, the man came over, stood in front of the car, waved in her direction, and smiled, as if he was very familiar with her.
Qiao Zheng rolled down the car window and said to her, "Get in first."
As soon as he got in the car, the man introduced himself enthusiastically, "Hello, Xiao Qiao Zheng, my name is Shen Zhongjia, and I met Qiao Zheng... um... probably four or five years ago."
Generally, people in this timeline would distinguish between Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng, but Shen Zhongjia in front of him was different. Judging from her attitude, it seemed that she knew that Qiao Zheng and Qiao Zhizheng were the same person, and she knew Qiao Zheng first, so she called Qiao Zhizheng "Little Qiao Zheng".
Qiao Zheng said in surprise, "What's wrong with you?"
Shen Zhongjia smiled mysteriously, "You are still driving, now is not a good time to talk, I am afraid that what I say will distract you, you drive well first, find a place and we can talk slowly."
"Um."
Qiao Zhizheng sat in the passenger seat, looking at Qiao Zheng and then at Shen Zhongjia, curiosity written all over her face.
Shen Zhongjia looked surprised. "Tsk~ I'm used to seeing Qiao Zheng's smiling face, but now little Qiao Zheng is so cute. Qiao Zheng, you're not even pretending anymore, just putting on a cold face."
Qiao Zheng rolled her eyes. "I used to have to pretend, but now that I'm here, no one recognizes my old self. What's the point of pretending?" Qiao Zheng paused and said seriously, "Her name is Qiao Zhizheng, not Xiao Qiao Zheng."
"Okay," Shen Zhongjia greeted the co-pilot, "Hello, cutie Qiao Zhizheng~"
Qiao Zhizheng nodded to Shen Zhongjia, "Hello."
Without Qiao Zhizheng asking, Shen Zhongjia spoke of his relationship with Qiao Zheng, "Qiao Zheng and I are friends."
Shen Zhongjia was a chatterbox. Without Qiao Zhizheng asking, he took the initiative to tell her how he met Qiao Zheng.
"My girlfriend, Zhong Jia, is a cellist in a symphony orchestra. She performs with the orchestra during the regular season. One night, her car broke down on her way home, and Qiao Zheng happened to be passing by and gave her a ride home. That's how we met."
During that time, Shen Zhongjia was busy dealing with supernatural events outside. Zhong Jia had the amulet she gave him, so normally nothing serious would happen. However, Zhong Jia was born with a weak horoscope and was prone to encountering bad things. The car broke down and it was because of that thing. It was late at night, the road was empty and no one was around. The phone was affected by the magnetic field and couldn't be dialed. Several passing cars saw Zhong Jia but didn't stop. It was Qiao Zheng who passed by, stopped the car, lowered the window, and asked Zhong Jia, who was in a fluttering white dress, "Are you a human or a ghost?"
"people."
Qiao Zheng didn't waste any words and said to her directly: "Get in the car, let's go."
After leaving the area, Zhong Jia called Shen Zhongjia. Shen Zhongjia was frightened after learning about what had happened. She had given Zhong Jia amulet to protect her from direct attacks by dirty things, but she had no idea that those things had learned their lesson and knew how to indirectly destroy the means of transportation in an attempt to trap Zhong Jia.
The dirty things were upgrading their methods of harming people, and Shen Zhongjia also upgraded his defenses. Let's get back to the present.
Shen Zhongjia thanked Qiao Zheng repeatedly on the phone, and when he met her in person a few days later, he looked at her carefully for a while and said directly: "You have a great calamity in your life, but it has passed. After you turn 28, you will have..." A fortuitous encounter, the red star moves.
Qiao Zheng thought that news about her was everywhere, and everyone knew that she had been suppressed and then made a comeback.
Qiao Zheng interrupted her, "Sorry, I don't buy lessons."
"you……"
"I don't believe this either."
“I really am…”
"I understand. I understand."
Qiao Zheng turned to Zhong Jia with an expression that said, "You didn't say your friend is a liar."
Zhong Jia: ...I'm used to seeing this scene.
Shen Zhongjia: Forget it, if you don’t believe it, then don’t believe it.
Later, the three of them gradually became familiar with each other, and Shen Zhongjia never mentioned the matter again.
It was not until she met Shen Zhongjia in Qiao Zhizheng's timeline and saw her skilled greeting that Qiao Zheng believed that Shen Zhongjia had not lied to her.
None of the three had eaten yet, so they found a private room in the restaurant and sat down to chat while eating.
It was at this moment that Qiao Zheng asked her, "What's going on with you? Traveling through time? Rebirth?"
Shen Zhongjia held a mouthful of rice in his mouth, shook his head, and after swallowing it, he said, “No, no, no, none of them.”
"My consciousness came from the future and covered the consciousness at this point in time. Essentially, it's still me, just with different memories."
"So what are you doing here?"
"Just like I told you at the beginning—although you didn't finish listening to me—you had a fortuitous encounter after you turned twenty-eight, and your love star moved. To put it in an analogy, other people's love stars are two different points meeting and blending, but yours is one point that gave birth to two points and then turned back into one point."
"As your friend, I'm here to tell you how to stay in this space and time for a long time."
"So, the method is..."

The author has something to say: I have already written about time travel, and now I will add some supernatural elements. There are not many supernatural elements, and it is almost over. Is there anyone who wants to read supernatural literature? If there is a baby who wants to read it, I will open a pit~
