After seeing his two friends off, Song Ziqing went home.
At this moment, Lin Chengyu also arrived at the door of her house carrying two or three bags of luggage.
Seeing her return, he quickly stepped forward and said, "Ziqing, you're finally back! I've been waiting for you for quite a while."
Before returning, Song Ziqing was actually hesitating whether to go home and stay in the ring space that night or to open a hotel. However, after much consideration, she decided to go home.
After staying here for a few days, Song Ziqing really developed feelings for the place. Considering that she wouldn't be able to come back for the next ten years or so, she decided to go home.
If all else fails, I can just hide inside the ring's space.
Seeing Lin Chengyu carrying so much luggage, she asked curiously, "Xiaoyu, did you run away from home?!"
"I'm migrating like a bird! We're about to migrate from Shanghai, where there are four distinct seasons, to Hainan, where it's summer all year round. On our last night together, I'm worried about you."
You said someone came to your house last night. I was worried about you living alone here, and besides, I didn't want to stay at my own house any longer, so I brought my luggage and came to stay with you.
When Lin Chengyu mentioned his family, Song Ziqing realized that he had long since become indifferent to them. Now that he had left home, it was as if he had gotten rid of a leech.
She had absolutely no objection to having another grown man in her house to keep the house in order, so she readily agreed, "Alright, I'll open the door. Just go in and find a room to stay in. Anyway, I have plenty of empty rooms, so you can enjoy the feeling of living in a Shanghai villa."
"After we leave tomorrow, come with me to the neighborhood office and give the house keys directly to Director Zhang. This house may not belong to us for the next one or two decades."
Thinking of this, Song Ziqing walked around the courtyard wall again, and then carefully wandered around the front and back yards before returning to her room. After checking each room upstairs and downstairs, she went back to the kitchen and found that Lin Chengyu had heated the bath water.
Her gaze towards the man became even more appreciative. "Xiao Yu, you really have good taste! You're staying at my house for free, and you still know how to please me. You even heated up my bathwater for me. Not bad!"
Lin Chengyu said sincerely, "Ziqing, this isn't the bathwater I boiled for you. I boiled it for myself. I just cleaned the room, and my hair and clothes are covered in dust. You're a young lady, yet you're so unclean. There's dust everywhere in the house!"
Song Ziqing didn't care at all and replied confidently, "If I had known I was going to the countryside, why would I have bothered cleaning?! Okay, whether you boiled this water for yourself or for me, it's my territory and I'm in charge. I'll use it first, and you can boil it yourself later!"
Lin Chengyu discovered that this girl was extremely shameless, and the fine Chinese virtues of diligence and simplicity were nowhere to be found in her.
This girl is too lazy to be assertive.
At this moment, she immediately found a bucket, scooped the boiling water from the pot into the bucket, and quickly carried it into the toilet. She then hurried upstairs to find a set of pajamas and a towel, and went downstairs to take a shower.
When she came out of the bathroom, her face still damp, Lin Chengyu had already heated the bathwater again. She ignored him, waved to him, and went upstairs to rest.
She didn't enter the ring space that night. With Lin Chengyu downstairs, her heart calmed down, and she fell asleep instantly as soon as she lay down on the bed.
In the middle of the night, Wang Dagang arrived with a group of men. They circled the walls of the villa, looking for the best spot to climb over.
Lin Chengyu suddenly woke up and found that there were people outside the mansion, and more than two people. He became worried and quickly ran upstairs to Song Ziqing's room.
He originally wanted to knock on the door, but thinking of the person coming downstairs, he didn't dare to make a sound. Instead, he used a wire to pry open the lock and closed the door. Only then did he realize that Song Ziqing was still sleeping soundly.
He quickly went over and shook her body vigorously, "Wake up, Ziqing, there are more people downstairs, several of them. Let's find a place to hide!"
Song Ziqing was shaken awake, still groggy. He guessed that the person downstairs must be Wang Dagang, so he pulled Lin Chengyu onto the bed and comforted him, saying, "It's okay. I think it's just that Wang Dagang who wants to take me home to be his stupid son's wife. If those people see you sleeping with me, they won't want me anymore."
Lin Chengyu was startled by Song Ziqing and caught off guard, so she pulled him onto the bed. He pretended to resist for a moment, but after hearing what she said, he stopped refusing and obediently crawled into Song Ziqing's bed.
He then unceremoniously grabbed Song Ziqing and pulled her into his arms. When he noticed her slight resistance, he quickly explained, "Ziqing, we're acting right now, and it's an intimate bed scene. We can't possibly sleep on opposite sides of the bed, can we?!"
"Where did this sex scene come from?! You really can't judge a book by its cover. You weren't like this at first!"
Song Ziqing glared at Lin Chengyu resentfully.
Lin Chengyu, however, wore a roguish expression: "Didn't you already discover my true colors?! Ziqing, you're my fiancée now, and we'll be the closest people in the world from now on. Didn't you already notice how different I am?!"
"Yes, I think you must be someone who has been reborn."
Song Ziqing spoke frankly.
Lin Chengyu nodded in agreement: "That's right, I am a reborn person. In my previous life, I had just arrived in the 1980s. When the educated youth were allowed to return to the city, I died in the countryside, with my eyes wide open in disbelief."
My body never returned to Shanghai after I left, but my soul flew back after I died and stayed in Shanghai for decades, watching the city develop and change.
As my soul grew fainter and fainter, just when I thought I would vanish into nothingness, I unexpectedly found myself reborn, back in the time I had longed for, before I went to the countryside.
Song Ziqing smiled and asked softly, "Did you also notice the changes in me? Did you guess that I'm not Song Ziqing in real life?"
"Yes, you seem like a completely different person. I used to come to your house for meals often, and Uncle Song and Aunt Song always welcomed me very much, but you always seemed to look down on me."
After I was reborn, I found that your behavior and way of doing things had completely changed. You even suddenly went to the Wang family's house in broad daylight to steal. I started to wonder if you had been reborn like me?
Lin Chengyu felt that he didn't need to act like a block of white tofu in front of Song Ziqing; he still had to hide what he needed to hide.
