First meeting
After dinner, the auction item "Time Jade" was delivered to Shen Yanfei's room.
Ana Shen raised his chin towards the box containing the jade: “What you want.”
Shen Anyan was happy and picked up the box, but he hesitated when he wanted to open it.
She was not sure whether this so-called "time jade" could really help her go back.
If not, what to do.
But it seems that there is no need to worry too much. After all, she has now recognized her sister. The Shen family is wealthy and powerful, and they have enough financial and human resources to help her find a way back.
Can……
Shen Anyan was not one to hesitate. When there were no clues, she would naturally devote herself to finding them. But when a clue really came to her, she had to consider the subsequent issues.
If this piece of jade is useless and time travel is too mysterious - it is indeed something that can only be encountered by chance, what should we do if the Shen family has no way to deal with it?
Shen Anyan expressed his concerns.
Shen Yanfei comforted him: "It's okay, if you can't go back, then you can't go back. Can't the Shen family support you?"
Shen Anyan shuddered.
She couldn't help but think, if this was true, if she really couldn't go back...
In the time and space before she traveled through time, was there also a Shen Anyan from the future, watching her in the dark?
Her sister knows of her existence, her mother knows of her existence, and perhaps more people.
And now, she is the "Chen Anyan from the future".
Perhaps as Shen Yanfei said, she could just stay in this time and space and live her life as it came, waiting for Shen Anyan here to grow up, and then travel to the past and leave when he was nineteen years old. Then she could naturally appear in front of people and restore her original identity.
But this is just horrible.
Shen Anyan said: "I'd better leave."
Shen Yanfei didn't know that his sister had thought of so many things in the past moment, and thought that she was eager to return home, so he nodded and said: "Then take a look, is this thing useful?"
Shen Anyan took a deep breath and opened the box.

Gu Cijiang stared at his phone, feeling a rare sense of annoyance rising in his heart.
After the New Year, it's natural to visit relatives and friends. He sent a message to Shengyan yesterday, asking if he'd like to come to his home, but he didn't get a reply until the next day.
Gu Cijiang pursed his lips, consoling himself that perhaps the other party was busy and had no time to reply. But until the third day, the fourth day, the fifth day...
There is still no news from the feast.
He was no longer angry, only worried. He couldn't contact the other party, and he didn't know the specific address of the other party's residence. Gu Cijiang was shocked to realize how little he knew about the feast.
But there was no time to think about these things now. He hesitated for a moment and sent a message to He Qingtian, asking him if he knew about the banquet.
The other party replied to him quickly. Gu Cijiang quickly picked up his phone and clicked on the chat interface to browse.
He Qingtian: Sorry, I don’t quite understand.
He Qingtian: Who is the feast?
He Qingtian: Is this the student transferring here next semester? I don't think I've heard of her. If you're anxious, I can ask our homeroom teacher for you.
…
Gu Cijiang stared at the screen, looking a little confused.
————
Haicheng No. 1 Middle School, Class 1, Grade 2.
He Qingtian rubbed his eyebrows and returned to his seat.
Lin Yue turned around and asked, "Hey, what does Gu Cijiang from Class 2 want to talk to you about?"
He Qingtian was somewhat helpless: "Asking me about people, hey, it's weird."
Chen Shan was a little curious: "Who is it?"
He Qingtian said: "A person named Shengyan. He said that this person transferred to our class last semester and was my deskmate."
Lin Yue looked confused: "Ah? Is that true?"
He Qingtian said: "What he said really seems to be true."
Chen Shan scratched his head: "It feels a bit weird... Hey!"
She couldn't help rubbing her arms: "You said, there can't really be such a person, but this person is only visible to Gu Cijiang... Maybe she is sitting here now, listening to us talking..."
As she was speaking, someone suddenly patted her shoulder, and a sinister voice rang in her ears: "Yeah... I'm listening..."
"Ahhh!" Chen Shan jumped up in fright.
He Qingtian said helplessly: "Jiang Xiaosong, stop scaring people!"
Jiang Xiaosong chuckled and patted Chen Shan's back: "Don't be afraid, don't be afraid... Hey, speaking of this, our class also knows about this."
Chen Shan recovered and asked curiously, "Hey, what did you say?"
Jiang Xiaosong leaned on the table next to He Qingtian and spoke slowly: "Because he also asked me, as well as Zhou Tian and Li Xinran, if we knew someone named Shengyan..."
Jiang Xiaosong wanted to continue speaking when a book hit her on the head.
Chen Yuan said, "The bell has already rung, and you're still hanging around here. What? Do you want to stay and listen to the math class?"
Jiang Xiaosong stuck out his tongue and quickly rolled out of the classroom.
But when she was leaving, Lin Yue suddenly realized and said curiously: "Hey, wait, there's no one behind me. When she came over to talk to us, why didn't she just sit down and stand?"
Chen Shan also felt something was wrong: "Oh, why didn't anyone remind us?"
Chen Yuan's voice rang out again: "Lin Yue, Chen Shan, what are you mumbling about? Come, go to the blackboard and do the questions."
The two of them quickly stopped talking and went upstairs to do their math problems.
He Qingtian glanced at the empty seat next to him, his gaze lingering there for a moment, then retracted.

Gu Cijiang was also in a daze.
These days, he asked almost everyone he could, but got only one result.
No one still remembers the existence of Shengyan.
No, not even that.
This semester, I've collected all sorts of rankings, hospital admission records, competition finalists, and even their textbooks, clothes, and off-campus rentals...
All disappeared.
It was as if Shengyan had never existed.
Gu Cijiang tried every possible method he could think of, but he had to admit this fact.
Unless this is truly a supernatural event, that is.
Maybe there really was something wrong with him.
————
Examinations, further studies, and work.
Gu Cijiang never talked about the "feast" with anyone again.
She had left a significant mark in his life, and then disappeared without a trace.
He could hardly describe his feelings towards Shengyan - admiration, worship, and yearning. She was a dazzling person enough that once he had seen her, he would never forget her.
As for the rest, those more restrained and softer emotions, they were forcibly interrupted too suddenly, so they could not be strong enough, but could not bear to disappear. They could only be buried deep in the heart, brewing into a shape that even Gu Cijiang could not distinguish.
————
Until he met her again.
The crowds were bustling, the traffic was congested, and snow was falling from the sky.
Shengyan walked towards him step by step, stepping on the snow.
After so many years, she is still as vivid and radiant as when I first met her, just as I remembered her.
Her eyes turned over.
Gu Cijiang suddenly felt as if he was still in a dream.
