Chapter 662: Go back 662 times
Gao Guangcai was taken aback, "Let’s go out and have a look, can such an important figure come to our place?"
Su Yuanyuan felt quite helpless about having such people in a place like this.
But she didn’t have to wait too long; soon, a middle-aged man in a uniform came out.
Listening to his thoughts, Su Yuanyuan frowned. Is such a person really okay? How did he get to this position?
"Comrade, please come inside and have a seat."
Su Yuanyuan didn’t move but took out her credentials, showing them briefly to the leader who came out instead of handing them over.
"Mr. Su, please come in. What brings you here?"
"I need to make a phone call."
"No problem, no problem, you can make a call in my office."
Gao Guangcai led Su Yuanyuan into the office, considerately stepping out and closing the door.
Su Yuanyuan didn’t want to say much to them, as this wasn’t something she could manage.
She dialed Zeng Zhenqing’s number. "Leader, is everything still okay on your end?"
"It’s alright."
"Has something happened?" Ever since she woke up, Zeng Zhenqing had always been taking care of her, helping her as much as possible. Sometimes she felt she was being a bit unreasonable, but as long as she made a request, Zeng Zhenqing would definitely fulfill it. So if he had any difficulties, she would definitely do her utmost to help him.
"Xiao Su, I’ve encountered a problem here." Zeng Zhenqing was currently stressed out and overwhelmed.
"I’ll make arrangements to return immediately." Listening to his tone, she knew it wasn’t just a minor issue as he mentioned.
On the other end of the line, Zeng Zhenqing was silent for a while. "Xiao Su, if you come back, you will be involved again from the start."
"Leader, to me, you are more than just a leader."
"Alright, thank you. I might not be able to wait until you come back."
Su Yuanyuan’s heart skipped a beat. "Leader, what about the higher-ups?"
"You’ll know when you come back. Xiao Su, I want to be vindicated."
"Understood, leader. I’ll arrange to return immediately. You must wait for me."
"Hehe, thank you."
After putting down the phone, Su Yuanyuan left directly, ignoring Gao Guangcai who called after her.
She headed straight to the train station and bought a train ticket for 11 p.m. the next evening.
After leaving the train station, she went straight up the mountain. She had to inform them before leaving.
When she returned, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief.
"Everyone, I have to leave tomorrow night, there’s something urgent."
Zeng Hongling immediately stood up, "Yixin, go and buy a ticket for me. I’ll go with Yuanyuan."
Su Yuanyuan, you better not leave me behind."
Wei Guangxiang also stood up. "I’ll buy the ticket; I’m going with you too.
Su Yuanyuan, we don’t know the reason you’re going back, but the three of us, even though we’re just ordinary people, believe we can help you."
"Yes, Yuanyuan, we can run errands for you if need be. Anyway, I’m not leaving you."
Before Su Yuanyuan could say anything, Zhan Yunzhao also spoke up, "Little friend, I’ll go with you too. I think I could be of some use."
Su Yuanyuan looked at the four of them, "My return this time will not be smooth, and it might even be dangerous."
"So what? You don’t need to worry about us. We can take care of ourselves."
Su Yuanyuan still shook her head, "This situation is not as simple as you think. We don’t even know who the enemy is yet."
Zeng Hongling looked seriously at Su Yuanyuan, "No matter what, my brother and I will never leave you.
Since you have problems there, it makes you need us even more. Rest assured, we each have our strengths and will safely get you there."
Wei Guangxiang also nodded, "No matter what, we’ll be with you,
you know our situation, we have nowhere else to go, as long as we are by your side."
"Little friend, I did a divination for myself. My noble person is you. It’s time for me to make my worldly appearance."
Su Yuanyuan looked at the four of them, "I cannot guarantee your safety if you follow me." It’s better to state the risks upfront.
"We don’t need your guarantee." After Wei Guangxiang finished speaking, he turned and left, and Zeng Yixin followed suit.
Su Yuanyuan looked at Zhan Yunzhao, "Daoist Zhan, if you really want to make your worldly appearance, you can’t do it like this. You have to live like ordinary people." Since they all wanted to come along, let them come.
Indeed, as Wei Guangxiang said, they don’t need her guarantee. In fact, among people, they are considered quite capable.
"Alright, little friend, I’ll dress like you all do, don’t worry. I’m adaptable, and I actually have normal clothes; I’ve come down the mountain before."
Su Yuanyuan nodded. It was already lunchtime, but Wei Guangxiang and the others had gone out.
After lunch, Su Yuanyuan declined to let Zeng Hongling accompany her and went up the mountain alone.
She actually wanted to see the leopard one last time and wanted to leave the sheep in the space here as well.
The idea was to have the leopard help protect it a bit.
Though she couldn’t remember, Yang Chunsheng had told her about the time when Su Yuanyuan used sheep to pull Yuanyuan away. She thought maybe this girl didn’t want to leave the sheep behind, so she kept it in the space.
But in the space, the sheep could only sleep, and its lifespan was only about a decade. Keeping it there wasn’t good for it; it’s better to let it live here.
She reached the mountaintop but didn’t find the leopard. However, she didn’t have much time left, so she shouted a few times and sat down to wait, feeling certain the leopard would come.
Taking this opportunity, she released the sheep from the space.
It took the sheep quite a while to come to its senses after being released, and upon seeing Su Yuanyuan, it nuzzled against her affectionately.
Su Yuanyuan felt a nose-tingling sensation and patted the sheep’s head.
"Do you see this place? I want you to stay here and live."
Su Yuanyuan also thought about this earlier, believing that the previous Su Yuanyuan must have given it Spiritual Spring Water; otherwise, it couldn’t have pulled Yuanyuan. Thus, she tentatively shared her thoughts.
The sheep was still nuzzling Su Yuanyuan until it heard those words. It stared straight at her, eyes full of pleading.
Su Yuanyuan stroked its head, "I don’t know how old you are, but you must understand that staying with me all the time isn’t good for you.
This environment is quite nice, with many wild activities, and I’ve already arranged for animals that can protect you.
Think about it carefully. I hope you can live freely outside, instead of just sleeping around me all the time. That isn’t fair to you."
The sheep continued to look pleadingly at Su Yuanyuan. They had lived together for so many years, and saying they grew up together wasn’t an exaggeration.
