What a pity, it could never go back to how it was.
Now, the person before her eyes was no longer the bedfellow of the past.
Now, when mentioning the past, Zhao Shuyue could only feel irony and ridicule.
"Don’t bring up the past with me, Liu Qinian! You don’t deserve it! My father was blind to save you from the snow all those years ago!"
Old Master Zhao should have let Liu Qinian freeze to death in the snow back then!
"Shuyue..." Liu Qinian sighed, his expression one of pain and helplessness, "I wronged you in the past, what do I have to do for you to forgive me?"
"Get lost! Get out of here now!" Zhao Shuyue tightened her grip on the kitchen knife in her hand, "If you don’t get lost, watch out, I won’t be polite! Liu Qinian, I’m staking everything today! I’m ready to fight you with my life!"
Zhao Shuyue was serious, and Liu Qinian narrowed his eyes before saying, "Alright, alright, we’ll leave, we’re leaving! Shuyue, don’t get agitated, don’t get angry, it’s bad for your health."
In this situation, one mustn’t act recklessly, one needed to think of a foolproof plan.
With those words, Liu Qinian left with Jiu Wentang and Liu Ru.
Unfortunately, when it rains, it pours.
The car stopped working just as they reached the entrance of the village.
Liu Qinian got out to check, "It seems like the engine has stalled due to carbon build-up."
Jiu Wentang got out of the car as well, "Can we start it again?"
Liu Qinian shook his head.
"What should we do then?" Jiu Wentang was a little anxious.
Liu Qinian continued, "First, let’s make a phone call, have someone come over to fix it. On the way here, I saw telephone poles by the road, surely someone in the village must have a phone at home."
In those days, not many families had a phone installed, and finding out which home had a phone was simple, just follow the telephone poles.
Naturally, it was up to the women to knock on doors, so Jiu Wentang went to a house with a telephone to knock.
The door opened quickly.
The door was opened by a beautiful young woman in her thirties or forties, with a strangely familiar feeling to her. Jiu Wentang squinted her eyes and smiled, "Miss, may I use your phone please?"
As Jiu Wentang felt the familiarity, Ni Cuihua also felt that Jiu Wentang looked familiar.
Who is this?
Why did she feel like she had seen her somewhere before?
