START A NEW JOURNEY

At these words, Tang Shi felt a sudden jolt in his heart.

This isn't good.

Could Ni Yang really be interested in him? Otherwise, why would she invite him for dinner on her own?

This woman belongs to his third brother; he doesn't dare to mess with her!

"No need, no need!" Tang Shi immediately refused, clutching his butt, limping and running away.

Ni Yang silently watched Tang Shi. Was she really so scary in appearance?

He ran even faster than a rabbit...

Tang Shi quickly ran to Mo Baichuan, "Third brother, I've returned the ticket to the female comrade."

"Hmm." Mo Baichuan nodded, "Go buy two tickets back to Beijing."

Back to Beijing?

Upon hearing this, Tang Shi looked at Mo Baichuan in surprise and asked, "Third Brother, aren't we going to Dam Village?" We just got off the train from Beijing, and now we're going back to Beijing. What on earth does he want to do?

Is he just running around for fun?!

"We're not going." Mo Baichuan answered indifferently, "We're going straight back to the base." Everyone has eagerly gone to Beijing. Going to Dam Village then has no meaning.

"Weren't you out looking for a person? Now we're returning to the base without finding her?" Tang Shi asked with confusion.

"What... Do you have a problem with my decision?" Mo Baichuan gave Tang Shi a plain look.

Even this plain look was enough to send chills down Tang Shi's spine. "No no, let's return to the base—we're going back to the base right away."

Even if he had a hundred guts, he would not dare to question Third Brother's decision...

By now, Tang Shi had a more audacious suspicion in his mind. Could Third Brother be going back to Beijing for the attractive female comrade?

Perhaps, this pretty comrade was the person that Third Brother was looking for!

Ni Yang went to a small restaurant nearby, packed up some food, and brought it to the inn.

In the inn, her younger sister had already fallen asleep. Ni Cuihua came out from the bathroom and said to a worried-looking Ni Yang, "Yangyang, I want to take a bath, but there's no tub. What should I do?"

Ni Yang placed the food on the table and spoke softly, "Mom, wait, let me see."

At that time, the showers were foot-operated.

To Ni Yang, this kind of shower was not unfamiliar at all. But to Ni Cuihua, a rural woman who had just arrived in Beijing, it was very strange. For a while, she found it hard to accept.

"Mom, it works like this. This is called a shower. When you step on this pedal, water will spray out. You can stand under it to wash."

Ni Cuihua frowned. "No good, no good! That's such a waste of water!" She was inherently thrifty.

Ni Yang smiled, "It's sanitary and convenient to wash like this. It's popular in the city. Go take a shower quickly, we'll eat after you're done. We have to get up early tomorrow to take the train."

"Alright." Ni Cuihua nodded and then asked, "Yangyang, do they charge for the soap? How much does it cost?"

Ni Yang shook her head, "They don't charge for it, Mom. Use it as you like."
