Su Yuanyuan saw Chang Jinshi lying on the ground with a smile on his face. In fact, he probably never touched the wooden box on the stone table.
She confird once again that this person was indeed dead, and he seed to have died in happiness because the expression on his face was one of surprise and satisfaction.
This made Su Yuanyuan curious about what had happened. But there was no need to save Chang Jinshi now.
She used her Divine Sense to collect that wooden box, and then without caring about anything else, she imdiately ran back.
Because her mind was highly tense, she discovered a different place in the cave, realizing there was an exit here that had always been hidden.
Su Yuanyuan carefully and cautiously erged from this exit, realizing she was halfway up the shady side of the mountain, and close to the foot of the mountain.
In a hurry, she ran down the mountain and directly reached the train station, boarded a train that was about to depart.
She hadn’t bought a ticket, so after getting on the train, she found a conductor and stuffed two salted duck eggs into their hands to make up for a sleeper ticket. Lying on the bed, Su Yuanyuan kept giggling.
This train was still heading to the border, it seed she was destined to et Tan Shaoting.
During this whole journey, she behaved well and didn’t get off the train. So twenty days later, on January 1st, 1963, according to the Gregorian calendar, she arrived at the border.
After getting off, she directly went to find Zhang Chunsheng.
The guard inford Zhang Chunsheng that a female comrade was here to see him, and he was quite puzzled. He didn’t know many female comrades, did he?
"Xiao Su, you’re here again?"
"Mr. Zhang, I’m here to make a donation," Su Yuanyuan said with a smiling face.
"Great, welco. It would be wonderful to have more people like you."
"Haha, I didn’t earn much last year. I can only donate two thousand this ti."
"Two thousand is already a considerable amount."
As they talked, they walked to the finance office, where the accountant from last year was still there.
The person received the money, stood up solemnly, and saluted Su Yuanyuan.
"Thank you, Mr. Su."
"Comrade, you’re exaggerating. When the country is in trouble, every citizen has the responsibility."
"Good, very good comrade indeed."
"Xiao Su, is it under your na this ti or Tan Shaoting’s?"
"It might as well be Tan Shaoting’s." Since she didn’t work in this departnt, it would be beneficial for Tan Shaoting.
"Comrade Xiao Su, it should be either both of your nas or just yours."
Su Yuanyuan was taken aback for a mont, glanced at the serious Zhang Chunsheng, "Alright, then both of our nas."
Soon, Su Yuanyuan received a handwritten comndation letter, of which she already had three.
Both walked out of logistics.
"Xiao Su, how many days are you planning to stay?"
"Mr. Zhang, may I know when Tan Shaoting will return?"
"He left just three days ago, but the mission is relatively simple this ti. I estimate he should return within a week."
Su Yuanyuan nodded with a smile, "Okay, I understand."
"Why not stay here and wait for him?"
Su Yuanyuan shook her head, "I’ll wait at Ruan Lingyu’s place."
Su Yuanyuan walked on the street, thinking everything looked good, and she planned that if she waits a week for Tan Shaoting, she might have ti to go to the seaside, saying she must get sothing delicious.
As she walked, she reached the door of Ruan Lingyu’s house, and surprisingly it was a male comrade who opened the door, presumably doing the sa work as Tan Shaoting.
"Who is it?" ca Ruan Lingyu’s voice from inside.
Su Yuanyuan stood there smiling broadly.
Seeing Su Yuanyuan, Ruan Lingyu also smiled, "Welco, you are extrely welco."
"I initially wanted to stay over, but it seems inconvenient now. I don’t want to be unwelco. Here are so Northern snacks I brought for you, give them a try."
"Why would it be inconvenient?"
Su Yuanyuan shook her head and handed Ruan Lingyu a cloth bag, which contained about five pounds of sausage.
"I’ll go to the hotel, we can et again if there’s a chance." She didn’t want to impose.
After settling at the hotel, she went out for a stroll, being as honest as she could here.
She bought so fresh fruit and then returned.
Since Su Yuanyuan left, Zhang Chunsheng began frowning. In fact, he had been comforting Su Yuanyuan. This ti Tan Shaoting and his team had indeed left three days ago, and this mission was indeed relatively easy. Under normal circumstances, they should be ho today, but he hadn’t received any news. Could there be changes?
Ruan Lingyu, upon losing sight of Su Yuanyuan’s figure, went back inside.
"Was that woman just now Tan Shaoting’s girlfriend?"
"Probably, they are always together."
"They are quite a match, and they also give off a similar feeling."
"Are they? I wasn’t aware of that."
The next morning, Su Yuanyuan had breakfast on the street, then went shopping. She loved the fabric here, especially the kind that was self-dyed.
She bought various fruits, and indeed there were many she had never seen before, with so tasting extrely delicious.
She now understood the local dialect, though her tongue was a bit stiff, but being able to communicate normally was fine.
She was quite happy herself because of the gains from last ti, now still in high spirits.
The jewelry here was good too; she bought a pretty necklace but nothing else.
anwhile, Zhang Chunsheng was organizing work since Tan Shaoting and his group had returned today.
This mission was completed, but the follow-ups might be more troubleso.
Now Zhang Chunsheng could not make the decisions, so he had to consult his superiors.
"Alright. You’re on leave, be ready for a call-up anyti."
Zhang Chunsheng stopped Tan Shaoting, who was about to leave, "Soone ca to donate money."
Tan Shaoting imdiately understood what Zhang Chunsheng ant.
He knew Su Yuanyuan was probably at Ruan Lingyu’s place, so he changed his clothes and went out imdiately.
"Su Yuanyuan isn’t here, she said she’s at the hotel, you might want to check there."
Tan Shaoting was in such a hurry, eager to et the young girl as soon as possible.
They hadn’t seen each other for almost a year now.
But when he reached the hotel, he missed her.
Thinking for a mont, Tan Shaoting probably guessed that she must have gone out shopping. That’s just the way she is; she would think about bringing gifts back for those she holds dear. The difference between here and the farm is imnse, she definitely wouldn’t miss out.
So, he went to the market.
Their connection was really quite amazing. When Tan Shaoting arrived at the market, among no less than five hundred people, definitely at least two hundred, he instantly spotted the young girl wearing local clothing.
He saw her communicating with people, gesturing animatedly.
No matter how he looked, she seed so adorable.
So he squeezed in, and as Su Yuanyuan was talking, she seed to sense sothing, just like their encounter at the train station last ti. The two of them locked eyes.
