Chapter 296 Mysterious Island
"Of course, your business is my business. You are my wife. If your life is at stake, how can I live alone?" Slowly, tentatively, he grabbed Bai Yangfan's hand and held it, "If you are not here, what's the point of me living alone in this world?
"I didn't see your goodness before, but now I see it, and I will never let go. We will be together in heaven and on earth. Without you, I even have trouble sleeping. How can I leave you in this life?"
Bai Yangfan glanced at Lu Jingheng indifferently without saying a word. He pulled his hand away and said soothingly, "Go to bed! It's getting late."
Looking at his watch, it was almost midnight. It was indeed very late. Lu Jingheng stood up and said, "Okay, I'm going to bed. You should go to bed early too."
As soon as he finished speaking, he walked out and considerately closed the door.
Nothing happened that night. The next day, Bai Yangfan got up, Lu Jingheng went to work, and Qihang had already gone to school.
She didn't have classes in the first period in the morning, and only had classes in the second period. When the bastard came, she didn't have to worry about her brother's schooling. She slept late and got up at almost eight o'clock.
There is warm soy milk, a bun and a steamed bun in the pot.
Bai Yangfan picked it up and started eating. After he finished, he packed his schoolbag and prepared to go to school.
Some people have started selling homemade buns and steamed buns on the streets, some small businesses have emerged vigorously, and the stalls in the black market have been legalized as if by tacit rules.
Many people who don’t have proper jobs started setting up stalls.
Even though the slogan of "allowing some people to get rich first" has not been shouted out, the hardworking working people have already noticed it.
The surrounding environment changed quietly, and Bai Yangfan felt that he had come at a good time.
Even though she had no intention of going into business and developing her own business empire, being able to experience the changes of this era was an unprecedented blessing.
I've saved enough money to buy a courtyard house at the end of summer vacation. The back door faces the street, and I plan to open it up in two or three years and turn it into a shop. I think someone will come and rent it.
After a few years when my younger brother grows up, I will transfer this yard to his name, and then I will quietly go about my own business.
Walking and thinking about my problems, I arrived at school in a short while.
As soon as she entered the school gate, she was stopped by Principal Zhen, who said mysteriously that someone wanted to see her and asked her to wait in his office.
Bai Yangfan was confused and asked, "Who's looking for me? I have classes soon."
"It's Lao Zhang, the one who said he wanted to study 'wormholes' with you last time. Have you forgotten?" Seeing that Bai Yangfan didn't remember for a while, Principal Zhen reminded him, "It's the man who tried to take you away from your grandfather, the physicist Lao Zhang."
Bai Yangfan naturally remembered after being reminded so carefully. In fact, as soon as Principal Zhen mentioned the word "wormhole," she immediately remembered who it was. However, seeing how excited he was, she didn't interrupt him, fearing he would spoil the fun.
Let him finish his words, otherwise I'm worried that he will get depressed.
"Oh! You're talking about Grandpa Zhang!" Bai Yangfan pretended to understand. "I see. He's the one who said my grandfather's place is full of fighting and killing, but he's researching wormholes. He's very safe, right?"
Principal Zhen nodded quickly, smiling happily, his face filled with relief that "my reminder finally paid off." "Yes, that's him. He wants to see you. Is the next class important? If not, don't go. I'll ask for leave for you. If it's important, I'll ask the teacher to make up the time for you."
Bai Yangfan: “······” I have never seen such a domineering principal like you. In the final analysis, I have to go and see that grandfather. Since you have made the decision happily, what else do you have to say to me?
Just lead the way and she can just follow.
Principal Zhen was filled with emotion: "..." This wasn't him being overbearing, he just had no other choice, okay? He didn't know if he owed these people something in his past life, they kept coming to him and asking to see his students.
You said you would go and meet him, but you also threatened him, especially this Lao Zhang, saying that if you couldn't meet him, you would break up with him, this "cowshed guy with a revolutionary friendship as deep as the sea."
How could he feel about this?
It seemed as if he had prevented him from seeing Bai Yangfan. There was no other way. In order not to break off the friendship with his old friend, he could only abuse his power for personal gain, run over to block the man, and take the man to the old man.
What else can we do?
Old Zhang was an impatient person. When he saw Bai Yangfan, he quickly put down the teacup in his hand, stood up, and shook hands with her enthusiastically.
"Oh! You're finally here. You didn't even know how much I miss seeing you."
The old man's words startled her. What did he mean by "wanting to see her like crazy"? What did he mean? She wasn't a big shot; it was easy to see her.
What are you doing to go crazy?
Seeing the little girl's bewildered face, Old Zhang laughed out loud, "Did I scare you? I'm just a straight talker, don't mind me. The truth is, my assistant and I went to the place you visited to study wormholes, and we did witness the wonder of overlapping spaces.
We were so excited that we decided we could take on something even more challenging, so we decided to go to a small island in the south to do some research. It was a strange place, and I tell you, it would suddenly appear and disappear.
Many fishermen have seen it, and even heard that some have visited the island, but sadly, no one has survived. Those who went there perished, leaving no trace. So, what do you think? Interested in exploring this eerie place with us?
If we understand the pattern of the appearance of this island, we will know what it is all about and provide accurate data about this island for our country's future maritime industry, thus avoiding unnecessary casualties.
It's said that many ships have sunk near that mysterious island throughout history. Strangely, no one has ever been able to salvage a single one. This time, we're going there to both organize research on the island and help the country salvage those sunken ships.
You won't refuse such a good thing that will benefit the country! Come with me, let's go tomorrow. Our time is precious and we can't waste a single day. "
Seeing the anxious Old Zhang, Bai Yangfan didn't refuse. Instead, he asked, "How much do you and your colleagues know about that island?"
After a slight pause, Lao Zhang told the truth: "We don't know much. Once we get there, we'll talk to the locals for more details."
"Then let's wait until you have a detailed understanding before we discuss this!" Seeing that he was stunned, Bai Yangfan gave him an explanation, "I still have to study medicine. My ambition is to be a doctor who saves lives and heals the wounded.
I'm not really interested in what you said. Last time, my grandfather insisted that I go and see what happened to the six missing people, so I went. I happened to know a little about it, and by chance I saved those six people.
"I'm actually not as powerful as you say, Grandpa Zhang! You go there first and learn about the island. I'll come back later when you need my help. What do you think?"
