The Space-Time Boss: 1970s Revolution

Chapter 109: Mobilization

Fu Xiao pondered for a moment, then took out two pills from her pocket, wrapped them in paper, and placed them on the table. "Here's the antidote. It only lasts for a month. You can move around freely, but don't alarm my snake, or you'll be in for a world of pain."

Gu Qichen's eyes lit up. "Does this mean I can stay with you for this month?"

"Do you think so?" Fu Xiao left with those words, heading out of the room.

Gu Qichen smirked. Alright, he knew it was unlikely. But staying in this wretched place for a month was truly unbearable...

He lay back on the bed, feeling disillusioned.

It was strange that, despite being heavily poisoned, he wasn't afraid. He didn't even think about retaliating against the girl. Could it be that her poison had scared him?

Impossible, impossible...

He shook his head internally. Who was he? Gu Qichen from Beijing. Afraid of a little girl? Ridiculous.

Fu Yu and Fu Xiao went straight back to the county committee dormitory.

Each took out a book and began to read, passing the time.

Meanwhile, Fu Weilun arranged for two soft sleeper train tickets to the Northwest and continued reviewing documents. He had a meeting in the afternoon and hoped to receive a call from the Northwest soon.

He would see what Fu Weihao had to say. If necessary, he'd contact the teacher.

Initially, he had planned to handle the situation diplomatically, as it was related to Jing Shu's family and the deceased... The child was a Fu, and they had no real connection.

He didn't want to delve too deeply, but the other party had been too disruptive.

Coming to Anyang County so brazenly and harming his family?

With power in hand, can one truly do as they please?

Anyang County was his territory. Since they came, they would stay. He was curious to see Mu Lianshen's attitude in the end.

He rubbed his forehead, gathering his thoughts and returned to his documents.

Gu Qichen, tossing and turning on the bed, could no longer stand staying there. He jumped out of bed, left the room, and pushed open the door to the next room. He addressed the scar-faced man reading a book inside coldly, "Stay here. I'm going out. I might not come back tonight, so don't look for me."

Without waiting for a response, he turned and left.

The scar-faced man scratched his head and chuckled helplessly. "Wasn't planning to look for you anyway..."

He actually enjoyed staying there—nothing to do, meals provided, reading and sleeping. It was far better than fighting and killing.

Gu Qichen exited the county committee and thought he might be stopped by the gatekeepers, but the guards only glanced at him and didn't obstruct his way. It seemed they really weren't restricting his freedom.

Standing at the entrance, he looked around, unsure of where to go.

Leaning against the wall, he watched people coming and going until he saw Shen Xingzhou approach. A cryptic smile appeared on his face.

He straightened up, took a few steps forward, and waited for Shen Xingzhou to get closer.

Shen Xingzhou noticed him but chose to ignore him, preparing to walk past.
