Neither Song Ziqing nor Lin Chengyu could have imagined that they would encounter their own kind as soon as they arrived in Guangzhou.
Bai Mei wouldn't easily give up on her ideas.
According to Bai Mei, Zhang Xiang met a benefactor in Hainan in his previous life, and his career progressed smoothly.
That's why she wrote a letter to lure him back to Guangzhou, hoping he would break the law and be sent directly to a farm, where he would never be free again.
Now, because of Song Ziqing's appearance, all her plans have failed!
With just a few simple words, she ruined a month's worth of scheming.
When Bai Mei returned to the Revolutionary Committee, she was still furious!
If there's a chance, we must let Song Ziqing and the other person visit the farm to ease her resentment.
Back at the hotel, Song Ziqing's racing heart finally calmed down. She then saw Lin Chengyu standing calmly by the door behind her.
She then realized that her ring's spatial storage had been exposed!
At this moment, she couldn't care less about anything else and quickly explained, "Xiaoyu, you have to keep this a secret for me! If others find out about my secret, I might lose my life!"
Lin Chengyu said with a smile, "Don't worry, I found out your secret the night I stayed at your house a couple of days ago!"
Upon hearing this, Song Ziqing was completely stunned. "You...you already found out?!"
"Yeah, do you have some kind of legendary storage treasure? I noticed a while ago that you took some of your furniture with you the day you left home. And you probably packed up a lot of kitchen utensils too, right?"
Lin Chengyu leaned down and whispered the biggest secret in the world, worried that someone might overhear him.
She continued softly, "Shh—, okay, let's not talk about this anymore. We were being followed before, and we didn't even notice!"
Song Ziqing also realized that he was used to living in a peaceful and prosperous era, and that he had been too casual about coming here.
They'd already given themselves away without even realizing it!
However, Lin Chengyu was already considered one of her own, so she had no choice but to accept it once he found out.
Seeing that it was getting late, she said to Lin Chengyu, "Xiaoyu, how about we just eat some of the snacks the Yu family gave us tonight and don't go out again? Let's get some rest early tonight and leave early tomorrow morning. I feel like this city of Guangzhou is somewhat incompatible with me."
Lin Chengyu said irritably, "You're not only incompatible with Guangzhou, but also with Shanghai. I wonder what kind of chemical reaction you'll have with Hainan?!"
Song Ziqing was stunned upon hearing this. "What kind of luck is this?!"
She arrived at a place and encountered people from the Revolutionary Committee. She felt that she was not incompatible with a particular city, but rather directly incompatible with the Revolutionary Committee itself!
Thinking of this, she sighed, "I will definitely stay away from the Revolutionary Committee people from now on! I always feel that I am incompatible with the Revolutionary Committee people!"
Lin Chengyu nodded in agreement after hearing what she said.
“You’re absolutely right. Let’s take out that box of shumai, blanch it in boiling water, and eat it for dinner.”
Song Ziqing asked with a puzzled look, "Did Aunt Yu give us shumai?"
"Not only siu mai, but also water chestnut cake, which you like."
Lin Chengyu noticed that Song Ziqing had only paid attention to the valuable items in the gifts that came from the family, and hadn't paid much attention to the food.
It seems this girl's treasure trove is filled with plenty of food and drinks.
She wouldn't care whether someone brought her food if she had enough to eat.
Lin Chengyu still felt sorry for Song Ziqing.
He had witnessed the lives of the emerging humans in his previous life; they could travel the world with just a mobile phone, enjoying food, drink, and entertainment. As long as they had money, their lives were incredibly free.
He guessed that Song Ziqing was a wealthy person in her previous life, and a self-sufficient one at that, making such a girl even rarer.
Therefore, he wanted to remind her from time to time to pay attention to her living environment and to make sure she wasn't exposed.
The next day, just as dawn was breaking, Song Ziqing woke up.
She dreamt all night long, in which she was locked in a basement, and someone even opened her head, trying to find the ring space inside her body.
Even her fingers and stomach were cut open, her intestines spilling out onto the ground, which terrified her so much that she woke up before dawn.
After that, she kept her eyes open and waited for a long time until dawn before she woke up.
As soon as it was light, she quickly got up and dressed in the simplest white shirt and black pants. This was the most acceptable outfit for her in the 1960s. She simply couldn't accept wearing floral print clothes or anything like that.
Her aesthetic sense made it impossible for her to accept dressing in floral clothes or like a country girl; just thinking about it sent chills down her spine.
Her predecessor had a good sense of aesthetics. Both her parents had studied abroad, and her clothes were prepared for her by her mother, Zhang Lihua, from a young age. She had studied in France, majoring in architectural design, but France is most famous for fashion design. Being in that environment, she had also studied fashion design.
The couple only had one daughter, Song Ziqing, and they always treated her like a doll, dressing her up from a young age. Even her room was designed and decorated by Zhang Lihua.
Even in the 1950s and 60s, Song Ziqing was the most fashionable girl in Shanghai.
As soon as she opened the door, she found Lin Chengyu already standing there. Overcome with emotion, she threw herself into his arms. "Xiaoyu, I had a nightmare! I dreamt that I was captured by bad guys."
Lin Chengyu was suddenly embraced by a warm and fragrant woman. He was a little taken aback, but his hands instinctively reached out and hugged her tightly, as if to give her complete safety.
For a long time, he stood there holding her, motionless. It wasn't until Song Ziqing felt warm from his embrace that she shyly pushed him away and said, "Let's go have breakfast. After breakfast, we'll go to the pier to take a boat. I want to leave Guangzhou as soon as possible. This place, like Shanghai, is not where I belong."
Searching and searching, Song Ziqing has been looking for a suitable place to settle down all along his journey.
Neither Shanghai nor Guangzhou.
It's unclear whether Hainan is her future.
She had a feeling that Hainan was just her ancestral home, but not her future.
However, both of them were sent-down youth, and they only had a few days to report for duty. If they were late, they might both be wanted by the authorities.
Lin Chengyu noticed that Song Ziqing's gaze towards him had changed, becoming more affectionate.
He felt that his relationship with her might take a step further soon, so he happily agreed to her suggestion and said directly, "Why don't we pack our luggage now, go downstairs and check out of the room in a bit, have breakfast, and then we can take the car and leave."
