Before Lu Qingzhu lost consciousness, she clearly remembered feeling her life force rapidly draining away, and the blood she vomited contained fragments of her internal organs. When she woke up, she found herself in an unfamiliar place.
He even found himself completely unharmed, able to breathe smoothly, and his facial injuries had healed, making him feel like he was dreaming. After all, he knew how severe his facial injuries were; he had been branded twice with a red-hot iron, and the flesh on his cheeks was practically cooked.
To think that things could be restored to their original state is nothing but wishful thinking.
So he was absolutely certain he was dreaming. He came out of the place where he was lying and saw another treatment pod like this not far from him. He went over to take a look out of curiosity.
The other person's situation was similar to her own, which made Lu Qingzhu even more certain that this wasn't true.
Since he was dreaming anyway, he didn't think much of it, except that he had never been to this place before and didn't know where it was.
Emerging from this place that resembles a hospital, you find yourself in a spacious parking lot.
After walking through the parking lot, he saw a charming little courtyard and a large expanse of farmland, where he had never seen such a bountiful harvest before.
The wheat ears bent the stalks under their weight, and the fresh fruits and vegetables made him feel as if he had entered a paradise.
He knocked on the door of the courtyard, but no one answered.
Hello, is anyone home?
As soon as he spoke, He Caiwei, who was driving outside, was stunned. She didn't expect that her second brother could actually come out of the treatment pod by himself.
He Caiwei was afraid that speaking would frighten her second brother, so she drew a line on the ground where he was standing, so that he could move around freely and that there was food in the kitchen for him to eat first.
She had just left home and needed to find a place where she could legitimately bring her second brother out of the space.
When Lu Qingzhu saw the words on the ground, he didn't dare to be so casual. However, he was really hungry. He carefully entered the kitchen and looked at the things in the refrigerator. Tears immediately flowed from the corners of his mouth.
The food here is diverse, including many kinds of cakes, pastries, breads, and various dishes that he had never been to before and that were not even available in the Overseas Chinese Shopping Mall.
He was determined to eat, he absolutely had to eat, and he would make up the difference when he got back.
After brainwashing himself several times, he took out a plate of five-colored rice, a small plate of sweet and sour pork, a plate of red wine braised beef brisket, and a plate of lotus root and pork rib soup. Suddenly, as if he had thought of something, he ran to the living room, found a pen and a piece of paper there, and wrote down what he had eaten, knowing he would have to pay the bill later.
Lu Qingzhu felt that this was the most satisfying meal he had ever had in his life. The food was so delicious. He wondered if he could learn how to make it. If he could, he would open a restaurant and teach apprentices. He was sure that this would be more lucrative than his current job.
Suddenly thinking about himself, wondering if he would ever see his parents again, he felt a pang of indescribable pain in his heart.
After finishing his meal, he took all the bowls and chopsticks he had used to the sink, washed them, dried them, and placed them on the dish rack. Then, he took the menu and left.
After walking around the fields, he found a driving range. He tried to open the car door and it opened. After spending more than half an hour figuring out all the functions, he got the hang of it.
He can actually drive, but the cars he drives are completely different from this one.
He tried it out and found that this car was much easier to drive than the ones he had learned to drive, and the screen even had music and navigation functions.
He was itching to take it apart and examine it, but since it wasn't his own, he didn't dare to touch it, and he was also afraid he couldn't afford to pay for it.
Although he had been saving money since he was very young, he felt that the money he had saved over the years, plus the gold bars his sister had found for him, might not be enough to buy a car like this. So even though he was itching to drive it, he only drove it once and didn't dare to dismantle it.
After driving around the field twice, his excitement wore off. Seeing some baskets nearby and the fruits and vegetables hanging heavily on the branches, he picked up a basket and started helping to pick the vegetables.
He Caiwei watched her second brother fussing around in the space and shook her head. Her brother was too carefree. He didn't even know what his current situation was, yet he was having so much fun.
When he had filled the open space in front of the courtyard with baskets of vegetables, he suddenly saw another car parked in the parking lot, and his sister got out of the car.
"Weiwei, what are you doing here? Do you know where this is? Whose house is this? I just ate something in the kitchen, thinking I'd help with some chores. Weiwei, are you dreaming? Am I dead? I feel so light, but I can still eat..." The boy, who had just been working hard, burst into tears when he saw his sister.
He Caiwei was a little at a loss. She never expected that she would cry when she was just working happily.
"Second brother..."
“I knew I wasn’t going to survive. Do you know how scared and how much pain I was in? I felt like they were jealous of my face because I was good-looking. You have no idea, they branded my face with a red-hot iron twice. I felt like the flesh on my face was cooked…” Lu Qingzhu squatted on the ground, holding his hands, and recounted the torment he suffered in that interrogation room. At that time, he wished he could just die.
No matter what, he would not reveal the situation of his organization. He had suffered so much, but he gritted his teeth and endured it all, knowing that these people would never let him live. So no matter how hard they tried, he just wouldn't speak.
"Second Brother..." He Caiwei reached out and hugged him, then took a towel to wipe his tears.
"Second brother, touch your heart and see if it's still beating..."
"It's still moving, I'm not dead, am I? Weiwei, am I still alive?" Lu Qingzhu was a little uncertain.
"Yes, my second brother is so handsome, and he's still not married..."
"You brat, don't say that. Where are we now? Are Mom and Dad worried? Am I all better now? Sister, did you use something incredible again? What price did you pay? How can I repay that price? I can't always make you pay..." Lu Qingzhu believed he was still alive at this moment, and his heart was beating very strongly.
He knew his sister possessed a mysterious power, but he didn't know what it was. He believed that his sister's ability to arrive so quickly and unharmed this time was definitely a major factor in his recovery.
"Do you remember where you woke up?" He Caiwei finally came to her senses and felt a little relieved.
"It was in something like an airplane cabin. It was very clean, pure white. When I woke up, I thought I was in an airplane cabin. The door opened very easily, and then I pushed the door open and came out. By the way, little sister, I've been in here for a few days... Mom and Dad don't know I'm here?" Lu Qingzhu didn't recognize what it was at all; he just knew he could get out of it, so he came out.
