Chapter 483 Extra Chapter 3: Shen Ruzhi and Yu Hai
Shen Ruzhi simply looked at the woman in front of her with a calm expression, which made the woman shiver involuntarily. For some reason, this woman's aura was very strong.
I couldn't help but feel like kneeling down in front of her; Yu Hai's aura seemed to have changed.
“We will definitely go.” Just as Yu Hai was about to refuse, Shen Ruzhi spoke first.
Yu Hai could only go along with Shen Ruzhi's wishes and said to the person who came, "I don't have your contact information right now. Give me yours and I'll contact you later."
The woman was taken aback at first, then her disdain was also reflected on her face. Was Yu Hai still living such a tight life as before?
Back in his school days, he was one of the poorest students in his class. Later, through his own efforts, he became a doctor, but in the eyes of his peers, he was only considered moderately well-off.
Therefore, they still look down on them.
The woman proudly announced her phone number, which had four 2s, adding, "You must come then!"
"Otherwise, I'll come to your house to find you."
After speaking, the woman smiled and turned to leave, joking and laughing with the people around her as she walked. She would occasionally turn around to look at Yu Hai, clearly trying to provoke him.
"Who is she?" Shen Ruzhi finally couldn't help but ask.
What she actually wanted to say was that she wanted to beat someone up, but Yu Hai had repeatedly told her not to before he came, so she didn't.
"Li Fan, my high school classmate."
“My family wasn’t poor before, but compared to these people, we were much worse off. My parents wanted me to have a better future, so they worked hard to send me to the best private high school in our area.”
"And then what?"
"Later, I got into one of the top medical universities in the country, but these people all relied on their families, and they still looked down on me." Yu Hai laughed self-deprecatingly.
"We don't need to pay them any attention."
“But what she just said sounded like a threat.” Shen Ruzhi had been an empress for so many years, and her ability to judge people was now unparalleled.
Yu Hai thought for a moment, "I should go see my parents. I wonder how they've been doing all these years."
“They used to bully me and would even send people to my parents’ workplaces to deliberately provoke me. Later, when I was able to move, I had a few years of peace.”
"It seems they know about my situation and where my home is now."
“So we absolutely have to go to that party.” Shen Ruzhi took Yu Hai’s arm. “My man, the Empress’s man, is being looked down upon like this.”
Yu Hai affectionately patted Chen Ruzhi's head. "Okay."
"But how are we going to get back now that we have no money?"
"The currency there isn't accepted here?"
"You didn't mention that either," Shen Ruzhi said, troubled. "How about we go back and get some valuables?"
"It's too late," Yu Hai said. "Let's go home first."
If he remembered correctly, this place was not far from his home.
Go see your parents first; once you're home, everything will be easier to discuss.
Yu Hai held Shen Ruzhi's hand as they strolled through the streets of the 22nd century. Shen Ruzhi looked just like a child from the mountains who had never seen the world, yet her demeanor was unlike that of someone from the mountains.
He gives off an air of otherworldly seclusion, which attracts many people to glance at him frequently, and some even take photos secretly.
Whenever they encountered something new and interesting, Yu Hai would quietly introduce it to Shen Ruzhi.
After walking for about half an hour, the two finally arrived at their doorstep.
It was already evening. Yu Hai's house was in a small alley. The area was full of old houses, but it had its own small courtyard, so the location was considered good.
Yu Hai paused at the door, and upon seeing this, Chen Ruzhi raised her hand and knocked loudly on the door.
Yu Hai panicked and tensed when he heard the knocking. He realized that he had been missing for more than three years.
Who is it?
An elderly woman's voice rang out from the courtyard, followed by a man's voice, "Put on some clothes, be careful not to catch a cold. What's the rush?"
"Oh dear, let me see who it is. What if it's my son?"
The man paused, then looked towards the door. "Maybe they knocked on the wrong door."
“There’s a guesthouse next door, and people knock on the wrong door every day. Come on, let’s go in,” the man said.
The two elderly people's faces were filled with sadness and disappointment. They turned around reluctantly, about to go inside, when there was another knock on the door.
After knocking several times, the woman said, "Old Yu, go and take a look. Maybe it's not a mistake."
"It's also possible that Officer Wang found a clue about Ahai and came to tell us."
Upon hearing this, Yu Hai's father, though having lost all hope, still went to open the door.
I paused for a moment when I opened the door.
"Old Yu, who is that?"
Yu Hai's eyes were filled with tears, and his lips trembled uncontrollably. He was about to open his mouth and call out "Dad".
The door slammed shut.
The old man in the courtyard, his hopes repeatedly dashed, spoke with a hint of anger, "I told him I was looking for the guesthouse next door."
“Two young lovers dressed like that, how could it be Ah Hai?” The old man waved to his wife, “Let’s go inside.”
As they walked to the center of the courtyard, there was another knock on the door. The old man shouted at the door, "The guesthouse you're looking for is next door. This is a private courtyard."
After he finished speaking and turned to leave, there was another knock on the door.
Upon seeing this, Yu Hai's mother said, "Let's open it and ask. Maybe they've encountered some difficulties."
"You old man, how old are you? You still have such a fiery temper."
Yu Hai heard his parents' conversation in the courtyard and felt a mix of emotions. His father was a very kind man, and his disappearance over the years had been a great blow to them.
The son they had desperately raised suddenly disappeared, and they didn't know whether he was dead or alive.
With a 'creak'.
The door was opened, this time by Yu Hai's mother.
"Mom." Yu Hai called out quickly, afraid that the door would be closed again.
You've got the wrong person... You are...
The woman was about to say they had the wrong place, but upon hearing the word "Mom," she paused, then stepped closer to examine Yu Hai.
It was already evening, and the streetlights were dim. In addition, the two elderly people had poor eyesight, so they did not recognize Yu Hai, who was dressed in ancient costume.
The old man behind her heard the word "Mom" and hurriedly came over.
"Dad, Mom, it's me, Ahai. I'm back." Yu Hai's voice choked with emotion.
Only when she heard the voice did Aunt Yu recognize Yu Hai. "Old man, it's Hai, it's Hai!"
"Our son is back."
"Is it really Ah Hai? Are you really Ah Hai?" Yu's mother said excitedly, and Yu's father also stepped forward, "Is it really Ah Hai?
Yu Hai nodded, and fearing that the two would not believe him, he began to recount some interesting stories about his family of three since childhood. After only a few sentences, the two pulled Yu Hai into their arms.
"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back. Mom knew you were alright, you would come back sooner or later."
Yu's father also wiped away his tears while crying.
"Alright, let's go inside first and talk about it there."
Upon entering the house, Shen Ruzhi curiously looked around at everything in the small courtyard. Yu Hai then briefly recounted his experiences to the two elderly people.
"You mean...this is the Empress?" Yu's father pointed to Shen Ruzhi, who was watching the TV curiously.
Yu Hai nodded.
"Or is it the daughter-in-law?" Yu's father asked again.
Yu Hai nodded with a smile.
