Reborn in a virtual world, before the house was taken away

Chapter 198 Listen to the corner

Although Feng Qingqing had never met Tian Xingzhu, for some reason, looking at the clothes of the girl in front of her, she subconsciously thought that this person was very likely Tian Xingzhu.

There's no other reason than that in their commune, this was the first time they'd encountered a girl as outstanding as Tian Xingzhu, who had been a sent-down youth there for quite some time.

Moreover, from the side, the girl's skin was fair and delicate, not rough and dark from long-term farm work.

Even among girls from the commune, such cases were extremely rare.

In short, he didn't fit in with the local people.

Suspicious, Feng Qingqing subconsciously chose a table next to the girl when selecting a seat.

She had barely sat down when she noticed that the girl got up to serve the dishes after hearing the names of the dishes.

It took two trips to finally serve all the dishes.

Out of curiosity, she subtly glanced at the dishes the girl had ordered.

Wow, wow!

This meal is truly lavish!

Braised pork belly, steamed sea bass, eggplant with minced meat, and shiitake mushrooms and greens.

This food is more than enough for four people, let alone one.

You should know that the portions of food are quite generous these days.

Moreover, the dishes they ordered included fish and meat, which most families might not even be able to afford during the Lunar New Year.

But judging from the girl's casual expression, Feng Qingqing could tell that she had enjoyed herself quite often, hence her nonchalant attitude.

At this point, Feng Qingqing had a pretty good idea that this was Tian Xingzhu, no doubt about it.

Just now, when the girl went to serve the dishes, Feng Qingqing glanced up and her eyes swept over her.

The girl was about 1.65 meters tall, with a long, small face and small but bright and spirited eyes.

A pair of lips, neither thin nor thick, were slightly pursed.

Overall, he doesn't have an outstanding appearance, but he gives people a calm and stable feeling.

It's unclear whether it was Feng Qingqing's gaze that startled her, or something else entirely.

She glanced at Feng Qingqing casually, but probably didn't notice anything unusual, and then looked away after a moment.

Fortunately, Feng Qingqing had a strong mental fortitude and did not react in any special way to the glance she received.

But in my heart I thought, this girl is really alert.

In order to keep a close eye on Tian Xingzhu, she didn't order any other dishes today, but instead ordered a bowl of noodles with vegetables and shredded pork.

A full bowl of noodles with soup is enough for her to eat for as long as she wants.

Just as Feng Qingqing placed the noodles on her seat, a man came panting in from outside the door.

Upon closer inspection, it turned out to be Qi Hongsheng.

In Feng Qingqing's heart, there was another thought:

really!

It really is Tian Xingzhu.

From the moment Feng Qingqing saw Qi Hongsheng, she was certain of her earlier suspicions.

However, there were no surprises.

After Qi Hongsheng sat down, he saw the four dishes Tian Xingzhu had ordered and his face lit up with joy.

Although his meals have been excellent during this period.

We can eat meat dishes like these every two or three days.

But since it's not something you eat every day or at every meal, seeing braised pork made me involuntarily swallow.

Although Tian Xingzhu on the other side could see through it and felt a little disdainful, he remained calm and showed no other emotions.

After watching Qi Hongsheng wolf down his food until he was half full, he finally had the energy to talk to Tian Xingzhu:

"Cousin, I just came from those two people."

At this point, Tian Xingzhu stared intently at him.

Qi Hongsheng choked and immediately stopped talking.

Then Tian Xingzhu looked around and saw a woman who looked to be in her forties on her left, and two young men and women on her right, who seemed to be dating, their heads facing each other and whispering to each other.

There was a wall behind it.

Directly in front of us was a woman with two children, having a meal. Judging from their clothes, they must be from a well-off family.

After confirming that there was nothing unusual around him, he nodded to Qi Hongsheng.

Qi Hongsheng's desire to speak had been interrupted slightly, but seeing Tian Xingzhu's reaction, he had no choice but to continue what Tian Xingzhu had just finished saying.

"Cousin, those two said they haven't found any clues in our commune recently, so they're going to check out the neighboring commune."

Upon hearing the news brought back by Qi Hongsheng, Tian Xingzhu's expression changed slightly, and she pressed for details:

"When are they leaving? Will they come back?"

Qi Hongsheng shook his head, then nodded.

Seeing his reaction, Tian Xingzhu, who was standing to the side, looked somewhat displeased.

He stared at Qi Hongsheng with an unfriendly gaze.

Qi Hongsheng probably realized that his behavior could easily cause misunderstandings, so he quickly lowered his voice:

“Cousin, these two originally didn’t plan to come back after leaving the commune, but I persuaded them to come here one last time before leaving.”

I will treat them well then.

The two initially disagreed, but after my repeated attempts to persuade them, they reluctantly accepted.

This is, of course, an exaggeration by Qi Hongsheng.

Before Qi Hongsheng could even speak, the two men said they would come back again to say goodbye.

Upon hearing Qi Hongsheng's explanation, Tian Xingzhu's expression darkened slightly. She lowered her head, poked at the rice in her bowl, and remained silent for a long time.

Qi Hongsheng guessed that the person the two were looking for might be He Yong'an, and that he had stumbled upon him by chance.

Tian Xingzhu, however, knew the whole story.

There was no other reason than that she found out from her mother.

The person they're looking for is most likely in their current commune.

Before she went to the countryside, her mother, Chu Baiying, had explained the whole story to her in detail.

The disappearance of that person back then was arranged by her mother, Chu Baiying.

The person who made this arrangement was none other than her mother Chu Baiying's distant cousin.

And this cousin was from their commune.

Thinking of this, Tian Xingzhu felt a slight resentment towards her mother.

Because of her momentary soft-heartedness, this situation has arisen.

That's really inappropriate.

If her mother had been able to make a firm decision and deal with it promptly back then, her whole family wouldn't be living in fear and anxiety about this matter now.

Back then, Chu Baiying was young and had only been married for a short time. When she told her cousin to go, she only said to send her away as far away as possible.

When my cousin left, she reassured her mother that she would definitely be taken to her hometown.

Her hometown is thousands of miles away from Beijing, so it shouldn't cause them any more trouble.

The fact that those two were able to find out about this commune must have been for some other reason.

Now those two are actually leaving here to inquire and visit places in the surrounding area.

The people who sent them weren't sure if this was the place.

Meanwhile, Feng Qingqing, who was listening intently to their conversation, was slightly surprised.

Unexpectedly, the two people who came to visit were about to leave!

But then she thought it was good that the two of them left; she wanted to see what Tian Xingzhu planned to do next.

Tian Xingzhu's brows were furrowed tightly at this moment. Although she appeared calm on the surface when she went to the countryside, only she knew what she was thinking.

She believed that her mother would transfer her back as soon as possible after she had taken care of everything.

However, if the matter remains unresolved for a long time, it will be extremely disadvantageous for her.
