Meng Lin thought he had heard wrongly, so he confirmed it again."You said…that you would transmigrate back with me?”
" Hehe." Azurepeak smiled embarrassedly." I'm very interested in the era you lived in. If there's a chance…"
"Do you know, in the era I lived in, which is the 21st century, I was just an ordinary worker, just like…anyone in the Xia family's factory now who relied on hard labor to make a living. Although my job was not hard labor, I was not born with a silver spoon in my mouth. If you go to the 21st century, your identity might change. You won't be a young master anymore. You might be a kitchen assistant who earns money by washing dishes.”Meng Lin spoke very seriously and seriously. He didn't seem to be joking.
Azurepeak was a little hesitant when he heard this. He did not answer Meng Lin's question and the two of them fell into an awkward silence. Outside the window came the sound of the surging river." Listen, the sound of the waves is so beautiful." Azurepeak immediately changed the topic. Meng Lin also forced a smile and did not continue asking.
The next day, they arrived at the Huangpu River and returned to the bustling Shanghai. For some reason, Meng Lin had a good impression of Shanghai. It was not just because she had stayed in Shanghai before, but because she always felt that the depressing atmosphere and ancient environment of the Xia residence suffocated her. Every time she returned to the countryside, she wanted to escape as soon as possible. Every time she came to Shanghai, she would linger. Everything in Shanghai was so bright, as if today's clear sky was ten thousand miles away, making her feel comfortable. When Meng Lin got off the ship and stood on the land of Shanghai, her beautiful mood was written all over her face. She stretched her back and wanted to shout at the sky to vent her melancholy. However, she held it in because there were many people coming and going around the dock. If she did that, everyone would look at her like she was a lunatic.
Azurepeak was carrying his luggage at the back. He looked at Meng Lin who was like a bird out of a cage. He was completely devoid of the fear and sadness he had in the Xia residence. He had an indescribable complicated feeling in his heart. They called for a waiting rickshaw and went straight to the mansion. At the entrance of the mansion, Azurepeak paid the coachman. Just as he was about to open the iron gate, the coachman suddenly said,"Are you Young Master Xia Qingfeng?"
"You know me?" Azurepeak was surprised, and Meng Lin also felt strange.
" A young master named Hao arranged for me to wait for you at the dock for a few days. He wanted me to give you this letter as soon as I saw you," the coachman said as he took out a letter from his pocket.
" Oh, thank you." Azurepeak took the letter. On the envelope was written " To Xia Qingfeng." It was obvious that it was Yashuo's handwriting. Azurepeak had gone to university with him, so it was easy for them to recognize each other's handwriting.
The coachman left after completing his task. The siblings entered the mansion. Before they could find a place to sit down, Azurepeak tore open the envelope and opened the letter. There was a sentence written on it: "When you come back, find a Monday afternoon to have coffee together. Same place.”Azurepeak looked at the calendar hanging on the wall. Today was Monday. He and Yashuo had been classmates for four years and were roommates. They had a tacit understanding. Since Yashuo had written this, it meant that there must have been a breakthrough in the recent investigation. Moreover, he was only free on Monday afternoons, so he would stay in the cafe every Monday afternoon until he returned to Shanghai. Thinking of this, Azurepeak picked up the match on the coffee table and threw the letter into the ashtray to burn it to ashes. He had already planned out the next action plan in his heart.
Meng Lin couldn't wait to go back to his room to pack his luggage. After changing his clothes and going downstairs, Qing Feng told him that he had to go to the factory and asked her to rest at home. Then, he went out.
" Weird." Meng Lin muttered in his heart when he saw his brother leaving. He suddenly felt that his brother might have something urgent to do, so he didn't think too much about it. It was rare for him to be alone at home. Now, he was free.
Azurepeak went out, got into the car, and rushed towards the Western Cafe. 00. Ya Shuo must have just gone over. Azurepeak increased the speed. He wanted to know the news from Ya Shuo as soon as possible. The car made a beautiful arc and arrived at the entrance of the cafe. Azurepeak entered the cafe. At this time, there were very few people in the cafe. As far as the eye could see, there was no one drinking coffee at the window seat. The surrounding sofas were also empty. Azurepeak went to the front desk and asked the waiter if there was a young master who came here alone to drink coffee every Monday afternoon. He also described Yashuo's height, figure, and appearance. The waiter nodded and said that there was indeed such a repeat customer who often came here. He had booked the café for a year, and it was set every Monday afternoon. As he spoke, he brought Azurepeak to the private room inside.
Azurepeak went in. There was a comfortable sofa and a phone inside. He thought that Hao Yashuo really knew how to enjoy himself. After closing the door, he found that the soundproofing of the surrounding walls was good. He immediately understood the good intentions of Hao Yashuo. Just as he was thinking, the door opened. Azurepeak turned around and saw that it was Yashuo.
Azurepeak was pleasantly surprised. Just as he was about to speak, Yashuo put his finger to his mouth and made a silencing gesture. He quietly closed the door and gestured for Azurepeak to sit on the sofa while he sat opposite him.
"What's wrong?" Azurepeak asked softly.
"It's nothing. Although the soundproofing here is good, we have to know that the walls have ears. Oh right, let's talk about you first. I heard from Uncle Wang that something happened to your family…"
" Yeah." Azurepeak was a little dejected." My father passed away."
"What?" Ya Shuo's body immediately leaned forward." How did Father die?"
"My family said that he had a heart disease, but when I went to find the doctor, he actually moved overnight. I think this is strange, but there's nothing I can do now. Tell me about you."
Ya Shuo told Qing Feng everything about how he was noticed by Zhang Lin, how he got shot in order to gain his trust, how he stayed at the cage shop to do odd jobs, and how he found the book of the Communist Manifest and the password book. Qing Feng's face was full of surprise and joy, red and white. When Ya Shuo finished, Qing Feng was very anxious to see the gunshot wound and leg injury on his back. Ya Shuo waved his hand and said that it was fine. It was not a problem now. Azurepeak was really touched when he saw his good brother working so hard. Ya Shuo saw Azurepeak's touched expression and pretended to be indifferent."Don't be touched. We are fighting for the future of the Celestial Empire. "If one day we can become the pillars of the country and contribute to the defense of the country, it won't be too late for us to be moved." When Azurepeak heard this, he couldn't help but hold Yashuo's hand. Their two pairs of big hands held each other tightly. "I'm just a handyman in the bun shop now. Zhang Lin has been deeply moved by my ability to hear the sound of bullets flying. His higher-ups are in a hurry to find some young and promising people. As long as my character and faith pass, I think it won't be long before he takes the initiative to talk to me.”
"Good, good brother, you're really capable. I admire you.”
" Hehe, aren't you also quite capable? You manage three factories alone, much better than me. I couldn't survive in my father's hands anymore, so I ran away from home."
" Sigh, you're right. How many people are envious of your background? You're the only son of the Beiping police chief. How nice would it be to stay in your father's hands after finishing university in Beiping?"
"I don't like to be busy with that old man. He always says that I'm not doing my job properly. Actually, he doesn't understand.”
"Alright, you can be unique. Perhaps one day, you will really become an official who is even more powerful than your father."
" That's for sure," Ya Shuo said and laughed.
" Right, Ya Shuo, there's something I want to ask you. You like reading novels, so you know more about this than me." Azurepeak suddenly became serious.
"What is it?" Ya Shuo took a sip of coffee and listened attentively.
"At that time, you told me a story about that farmer. Do you think…this kind of thing…is reliable?”
" How would I know? I'm just reading a book. Who knows if the story is true or not? I've never transmigrated before."
"Since it's written in the story, then there must be such a thing. That's why someone wrote it like this, right?”
"Why are you asking this? Your sister was already very concerned about transmigration during the last meal. Why are you so obsessed today? Don't tell me the two of you decided to travel to the Tang Dynasty and run away?”
" What are you talking about?" Azurepeak glared at him." I'm asking you seriously, don't joke around."
"I really don't know. I've read too many books like this. I can't finish telling you for three days and three nights. If you want to find the root of every story, you'll be exhausted. There was really no need to read novels too seriously. Just treat it as killing time. Eh? By the way, you don't seem like someone who cares about this topic. What happened to make you so interested in transmigration?”
