To be honest, she still didn't know how she became the main character. Meeting him was a complete accident. On that rainy morning, she was walking on the street with an umbrella in her hand. She was holding her resume and was about to apply for a job as a history teacher at a school. She had just graduated from the history department of a normal university in Xi'an. Suddenly, a man rushed over and bumped into her. She sat down, and the umbrella and resume fell to the ground. The man hurriedly reached out to pull her up and kept apologizing. The two of them were soon drenched. She looked at the clothes on her body and sighed. This was her best set of clothes. She usually could not bear to wear it. Today's interview was over. As she thought about it, she stood up, but she didn't hear the man apologize. The man stopped and waved his hand in front of her eyes. She came back to her senses and smiled politely."I'm fine. It's alright." The man helped her put her resume under the umbrella and glanced at it at the same time."You graduated from the History Department?" She didn't answer and took the resume and umbrella. The man continued," You don't seem to live very close. It's easy to catch a cold wearing wet clothes like this. Why don't you go to my place to change your clothes first?"”"Sorry, I didn't bring any extra clothes. Thank you very much for your kindness. I don't think I'll catch a cold if I go home now. Goodbye." "Hey, Miss, I knocked you down and made you wet all over. If you catch a cold again, won't I be a sinner? Besides, I still have something I need your help with.”"I think my ability is limited and I can't help you. I'm sorry." "But I think you're the only one who can help. Please, we've been looking for a long time to find a suitable candidate. Please help us." "You guys?" "Yes, I'm with a friend of mine.”"What favor?" She had never been a curious person, so she only asked casually.

"It's really not convenient to talk here. Please come with me.”

"I'm sorry, but I still think I might not be able to help you.”

"Miss, I'm begging you." The man's forehead was already sweating as he begged.

She glanced at him. The man was dressed decently and was about twenty-five or twenty-six years old. She thought that she was about twenty-three or twenty-four years old. Seeing him like that, she couldn't bear it and agreed. The man was overjoyed." I don't live far. I'll be there in a few steps."”

As expected, they arrived very quickly. The man opened the door and went to find a set of clothes."This was left behind by my sister. She's in America now. I've long wanted to throw this dress away, but I never remembered it.”He then instructed her to take a hot bath in the bathroom. She looked at him, and he understood." There's a small one in my room. It's okay."”She then went to change her clothes.

When she came out, the man was on the phone. As soon as he hung up, he saw her and quickly stood up."I just called my friend. He'll be here soon. Oh right, you still don't know my name, right? I'm Lian Tianci, and I'm taking the meaning of Tianci's Lian family.”

"Yang Junru, it doesn't mean anything. Now, can you tell me what you need my help with?”

"Sorry, I think it's better to wait until my friend gets here, I haven't discussed it with him yet.”

Yang Junru was about to speak when someone knocked on the door. Lian Tianci hurriedly opened the door and said as he let the person in,""How did you get there so quickly?" The person didn't answer. When he saw Yang Junru, he asked,""Are you talking about her?"

"Yes." "This is Sang Zi, and this is Yang Junru."”

Sang Zi reached out her hand and shook Yang Junru's hand before asking Lian Tianci,""Do you think she can do it?" As he spoke, he carefully examined Yang Junru from head to toe, making Yang Junru feel very uncomfortable. Lian Tianci nodded. "Have you tested it before?" Sang Zi asked again.”

"I haven't had the time yet. However, I don't think it's necessary. My senses have always been very sensitive, you know. I think she can do it."

"Alright then."

Lian Tianci was overjoyed. Sang Zi said,""However, I have to ask her a question.”Lian Tianci nodded confidently. "Miss Yang, may I ask your opinion on history?" Sang Zi turned to Yang Junru and asked.”

Yang Junru glanced at him and replied,""I don't know why Mr. Sang is interested in this, but I'm happy to answer you. In my opinion, the history we know now is not necessarily true. History was always in the past. There would always be people who would hide or even tamper with the truth for various reasons. Moreover, even without such a person, it would not be easy to fully understand history based on the records of predecessors and the deductions of archaeologists. Moreover, with the advancement of technology, many things that had not been discovered before were slowly surfacing. Many concepts were bound to change. Take peanuts as an example. It was generally believed that peanuts were imported from China. However, a few peanut seeds were discovered in Jiangxi and Hunan not long ago. After testing, they were found to be from the Neoliths. This provided a new possibility for the hometown of peanuts, that is, China was very likely to be one of the early hometowns of peanuts. We still don't know what the result will be, but we should believe that the depth of archaeology will definitely provide an answer to this matter. However, this matter cannot be resolved overnight. It requires our patience. And I believe that this is the biggest reason why history is so fascinating. She would always strike at you when you thought you had seen the dawn and touched the scepter of truth. She would make you discover the truth that was completely opposite to your original conclusion, so you would fall from heaven to hell, from light to darkness. Because of this, history became more mysterious. People are always curious. The more mysterious something is, the more they want to know. I am no exception. I love my profession."

Lian Tianci couldn't help but say," I think you're less curious than the average person. Otherwise, you wouldn't have asked me to beg you to come."”

"Because it has nothing to do with my profession or interest.”Yang Junru smiled slightly. She was a little excited. This was the first time she had said so much in one breath.

Sangzi had been listening to Yang Junru quietly. He looked at Yang Junru, who had not completely calmed down, and said,""Miss Yang, can I ask you another question?”

"Of course you can."

Which ancient dynasty do you like the most?"

"Tang Chao." Yang Junru blurted out.

"The reason?"

"I prefer an open era and a monarch.”

"Then you should be very familiar with the history of that time.”

"It's alright. However, I hope to see it for myself and experience history for myself.”

"Very good. However, there's still a problem."

"Please speak." For the first time, Yang Junru showed extreme patience to the two men.

"I want to know if your parents are still alive and if you have any relatives.

Yang Junru suddenly fell silent. Lian Tianci's expression changed as well. He shook his head at Sangzi and pointed at Yang Junru's resume.
