Chapter 378: Chapter 67_4With that, Luo Tingrui raised the cup filled with soy milk in his hand, and everyone else followed suit, clinking their cups together. Tan Wenbin gulped down his soy milk and couldn’t help but think: The big boss really does this socializing thing more naturally than my actual dad. "Liangliang, you’ll come with me to another team in a few days. We need to focus on cracking that scheme and aim to complete it as soon as possible." "Sure, teacher." "What about you, Xiao Yuan?" "Ah?" Li Zhiyuan pointed at himself, "Can I continue to go?" "I meant to ask if after experiencing this incident, do you need to take a break and rest?" "Okay, I’ll rest." Li Zhiyuan nodded his head. He did feel tired, and besides, he needed to take a trip to Fengdu. "Mhm, you’re still young. You have to pay attention to balancing work and rest, and you should actively exercise as well. I’ve heard that geniuses generally don’t have the best health." "It’s not that exaggerated, teacher, but I will take your advice to heart." Xue Liangliang brought up a topic proactively, "Teacher, we didn’t actively lure that thing to save people." "I know, didn’t you just mention that?" "I don’t want to take credit for this honor." "Liangliang... and all of you listen, sometimes we dream of making ourselves absolutely pure and flawless, but this world inevitably has dust, and sometimes there are even sandstorms." "I understand that principle, but teacher..." "After this incident, if we could establish a model of advanced character, it would be much easier for Ma Yiming and the others." "I understand now." After the late-night snack, Luo Tingrui left first, and the four of them returned to the guesthouse. Tan Wenbin spoke with lingering enthusiasm, "The taste of Wanzhou grilled fish is really good. I think learning the technique here and opening a branch elsewhere could definitely make money." Xue Liangliang said, "If you’re thinking about doing that, I could invest in you." "No, no, no, I was just mentioning it casually. Making money isn’t as important as studying." Immediately after, Tan Wenbin asked in a low voice, "Can...can this honor be added to the score?" "At Haihe University, it’s not difficult to get in, and this incident will be kept confidential from society." "Oh." Tan Wenbin’s shoulders sagged. Run Sheng asked, "Can’t you think of other ways to get extra points?" Tan Wenbin shrugged, "The other way is for my real dad to achieve glory at his post." Run Sheng was left speechless. The big clump of something like rotten straw that Tan Wenbin had brought along was packed in a bag, and Li Zhiyuan handed this bag and a piece of paper to Xue Liangliang. "Brother Liangliang, the paper has the restoration method written on it." "Don’t worry, I’ll be joining that team with the teacher in two days. I’ll drive back to Mountain City first and get the unit to take care of this for you," Xue Liangliang glanced over the list of required materials on the paper, "The materials aren’t hard to get; most of them are readily available, but since you want to keep it secret, you obviously can’t go to a cultural heritage unit. My friend could do it, but it would take him longer." "That’s okay, just take it and work on restoring it slowly. The main thing is we can’t leave this object out in the environment for too long; I also don’t have good storage conditions here." "Alright, leave it to me. So, are you heading to Fengdu next?" "Brother Runsheng needs to change his bandages again tomorrow, we’ll go the day after." "Drive safely, and contact me when you’re heading back, I’ll book your tickets." "We will, Brother Liang." The third day early in the morning, Li Zhiyuan, Run Sheng, and Tan Wenbin set out for Fengdu. They first went by car and then switched to a boat, disembarking directly at Fengdu County’s pier. Actually, the easiest way would have been to call the Ding family and have them help look for the Yin family at Fengdu, but since Grandma Liu was connected to them, Li Zhiyuan did not really want to do that; he would rather try to find them himself first. From the moment they left the pier, it was bustling. Up the street, the crowd was dense, and vendors were everywhere—it just so happened they had arrived during the Fengdu Ghost Festival. Tan Wenbin was very excited, looking here and there, "Hey, I have to say, this temple fair here is indeed much more lively and fun than our temple fair in Nantong, no, ours can’t even compare." Li Zhiyuan said, "Brother Binbin, traveling is just about going from a place you’re tired of to a place someone else is tired of." "Oh, that’s true. I almost forgot that going back to Nantong is like traveling for you." "Yeah, something like that." "But Xiao Yuan, I really feel like the people here in Sichuan and Chongqing love and understand how to live life better. Back home, I can’t even find a late-night food stall after evening study. Ha, I want to eat that, what about you guys?" Sёarch* The Novelƒire(.)ne*t website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality. Various regional delicacies dazzled them and were very affordable, even Run Sheng, who usually lived frugally and disliked eating out, didn’t mind spending money this time. The three of them went around tasting everything, treating it as their lunch, and in such an atmosphere, Run Sheng’s enjoyment of the food didn’t stand out as odd. Tan Wenbin stopped at a booth selling ghost-face masks, where two artisans were painting them. He watched for a while, then had an artisan paint him a Monkey King mask. He wouldn’t dare buy a ghost-face mask to take home; otherwise, he might get a cold sweat if he glimpsed it while heading to the bathroom at night. After the mask was painted and payments were made, Tan Wenbin donned the mask and struck a monkey pose: "Hey, demon, hand over my Xiao Yuan!" Next, they stopped at a tea stall. Nowadays, covered-bowl tea is very popular at temple fairs, often served with sugar or various fruit crystals. Buying a cup and sipping it when you’re tired from walking around is quite pleasant.
