President! School belle! Please respect yourselves! !

On a winter morning, a ray of morning light shines into the room through the window, shining on the snow-covered windowsill.

There was a faint hint of frost in the cold air outside the window, as if time was frozen at this moment, everything was so pure and peaceful.

On the first day after the New Year, there was another unexpected heavy snowfall.

Chang Han climbed out of bed and saw that the bed next to him was empty.

He and Lan Xin have returned to the old man's house for half a month. The two of them have been sleeping in the same bed all the time. It would be hard to believe if they said there was nothing wrong.

But it was true, except that Lan Xin would occasionally run over the dolls stacked between them and go to Chang Han at night, nothing else really happened.

The next day, the old man asked Chang Han with a smile how she rested the night before. When he saw Lan Xin, he just glanced at her.

Before Chang Han could curl up on the bed and stretch, the door was pushed open.

Qingxin, with white hair, skillfully grabbed the bed sheet, climbed onto the bed and snuggled into Chang Han.

Following behind him was Sheng Qingning, who had been taking care of him for the past few days.

She knocked on the door first and then walked in.

Time seems like a lifetime ago. One second I felt like I was happily celebrating the New Year and the next second I had to start working and feel tired as a corporate slave.

The annual leave will soon be over, and Lan Xin has already gone to the company early to work.

"Aren't you going to work?"

Chang Han always thought that Sheng Qingning was Lan Xin's secretary, so he asked.

"I do not need."

"unnecessary?"

Chang Han opened his mouth slowly and pointed to the empty seat next to him. "Aren't you a secretary? Don't you need to go to the company to help her?"

But looking at Sheng Qingning's indifferent expression, Chang Han wondered if he had made a mistake.

"Yes, but no. I don't necessarily need to be an assistant at work."

"?"

"Is it possible that I am a personal assistant? All I saw before was me helping the secretary on vacation with work matters."

"Oh." Chang Han nodded thoughtfully.

Then the two of them just stared at each other.

You look at me, I look at you.

They often see each other in the old house, and their relationship is not as stiff as when they first met, but it is not so good that she has to supervise them when they change clothes.

"I want to change clothes, can you step aside for a moment?"

As he spoke, Chang Han pulled the quilt covering himself.

Sheng Qingning glanced at him with a teasing look as if he was used to it, snorted coldly, and then tactfully walked out of the room.

After Chang Han washed up, he carried Qingxin downstairs and happened to hear the sound of a car starting outside the door.

Chang Han guessed that the old man must have gone out, because based on his observations over the past few days, the old man was not the type of person who liked to stay at home all the time. He must have gone to see his old friends again.

Chang Han sat down at the dining table and listened to Sheng Qingning talk.

"She said you can go back first today, or you can wait until she comes back in the evening and go back together."

"Ah."

Chang Han was biting something in his mouth and nodded vaguely.

"I thought about it and decided to go see the place you mentioned."

Chang Han took a sip of milk and looked at Sheng Qingning in front of him.

Sheng Qingning raised an eyebrow, "Have you thought about it? I won't be responsible if you get scolded."

"Yeah, it's okay. If she asks you, just say I lied to you too and you had no idea."

Sheng Qingning crossed her fingers and placed them on the table. She was silent for five seconds and finally looked at Chang Han with a firm gaze.

"I'll go arrange my trip and find the earliest flight."

After Sheng Qingning finished speaking, he stood up and walked towards the room.

Sheng Qingning acted quickly and within noon he had printed the entire itinerary clearly on a piece of paper.

He was also handed a plane ticket.

After getting off the plane, take a taxi to this place according to the above location, then take a train and then take a two-hour bus.

Sheng Qingning, with his eyes closed, spoke to Chang Han in a serious tone about the things that needed attention.

The most important thing is not to take the wrong seat. This is the only way to ensure that he will come back within two days.

Then Sheng Qingning would help Chang Han find an excuse to report to Lan Xin, saying that he was going to a friend's house to play for two days.

The most important thing is that Chang Han needs to return safely without Lan Xin discovering him, otherwise it will be difficult for Sheng Qingning to report to the emperor.

In the afternoon, Sheng Qingning sent Chang Han to the airport.

Before leaving, she emphasized to him that he must come back within two days, otherwise she would not be able to hide the secret from Lan Xin.

Chang Han just waved his hand and told her not to worry, saying that he was just going to take a look and not to die.

And even if Lan Xin found out, she might not do anything to him, because he had never seen Lan Xin get angry.

Then Chang Han boarded the plane and started his journey.

Chang Han didn't bring any extra things, just a simple backpack with some basic necessities. In short, he wanted to travel light, so he brought very few things.

In order to prevent himself from replying to Lan Xin's message in time, Chang Han gave his cell phone to Sheng Qingning and asked her to report to Lan Xin on his behalf.

It’s strange that there is obviously no extra relationship between the two of them, but Lan Xin has to pay attention to Chang Han’s movements all the time.

The three-hour flight landed in the blink of an eye.

There were still tall buildings where we got off the plane, but after sitting on the train for an hour, we could no longer see any gleaming tall buildings.

Besides being bored along the way, the only thing that made my butt hurt was that it was so sore from sitting.

When he got on the bus, Chang Han felt that his butt was no longer his own.

He fell down stiffly and stood up stiffly.

Finally, we have to go through the most torturous section of the journey, which is a bumpy dirt road without any cement or asphalt.

When they finally arrived at the place Chang Han was looking for, it was already completely dark, with only a few scattered stars and half of the moon buried in the clouds for company.

Finally, it was worth the effort to arrive at the door of the welfare home that Sheng Qingning mentioned.

The gate in front of the welfare home was locked, and looking at the time, it was almost ten o'clock in the evening.

It was very windy today, and we were in a remote little town where there was no place to shelter from the wind. Chang Han waited outside for another half an hour.

In the end, what people waited for was not the lights in the welfare home going out.

There was no other choice, Chang Han could only go back to the small town and find a B&B to stay in temporarily.

Afterwards, Chang Han asked the owner of the B&B about some things here.

The shop owner was watching TV in front of him while eating melon seeds.

"What is there here? There is nothing here, only the strong wind that never stops and the trucks carrying goods running around."

The shop owner then glanced at Chang Han and said, "I see you are not a local here. What are you doing here?"

Before Chang Han could say anything, the shop owner took over the conversation.

"You may not be able to find anyone. Young people your age have all gone out to work. Most of those left here are elderly people."

Chang Han then asked some other questions and returned to his room.

Chang Han was lying in bed when he heard his stomach growling. Then he remembered that he hadn't eaten anything all afternoon.

He got up again and took out some biscuits from his bag to fill his stomach.

Chang Han spent the entire afternoon thinking about this, because Sheng Qingning told him that everything he wanted to know was here, so he focused his mind on this and didn't even notice that he was hungry.

Fourteen days ago, Sheng Qingning found him and asked a strange question.

Sheng Qingning asked: "Do you like her?"

She? At that time, Chang Han didn't know who Sheng Qingning was talking about.

Sheng Qingning seemed to see Chang Han's confusion, so he spoke again.

"Don't you think this is all too coincidental?"

"Aren't you like a prey slowly falling into the hunter's trap?"

Chang Han frowned, "What are you talking about? I don't understand anything at all."

Sheng Qingning just smiled and didn't answer, as if Chang Han's questions and reactions were all expected.

"Okay, one last question. Are you really not impressed by her?"

Looking at Chang Han's confused eyes, Sheng Qingning told him not to rush to tell her, and he still had two weeks to think about it.

If he really couldn't remember, he could come to her and she would tell him everything he wanted to know.

In the next ten days, Chang Han was still confused by what Sheng Qingning said and the questions he asked.

One day, Chang Han couldn't help himself and went to find Sheng Qingning. However, Sheng Qingning told him that there was no way to tell him directly and that he had to find the answer he wanted by himself.

If you want to know the answer, go to the place she said.

Today, Chang Han traveled by plane and train for several hours and finally arrived at the small town that Sheng Qingning mentioned.

Chang Han, who was still thinking, felt the fatigue from a day's work sweeping over his body and soon fell asleep.

Chang Han, who had a dreamless night, did not dare to delay. He got up and went straight to the welfare home without even having breakfast.

When Chang Han arrived at the welfare home early in the morning, he found that he had arrived too early and there was no one to open the door.

When it was almost nine o'clock, a woman who looked middle-aged finally came to open the door.

The middle-aged woman was also surprised when she saw Chang Han, who was covered in dust.

It was dusty outside, and when the welfare home opened, Chang Han was covered in dust.

The middle-aged woman first filled a basin with warm water for him to wash his face.

After saying thank you, Chang Han asked the middle-aged woman if she had seen a photo.

When the middle-aged woman heard him talking about photos, she was stunned for a moment, then nodded, and then took him to a room full of photos.

Looking at the photos on the wall, Chang Han fell into deep thought.

Sheng Qingning only told him that when he arrived at this place, he could find a photo and he would know everything.

But when Chang Han saw that the entire room was covered with photos, he began to doubt whether Sheng Qingning was trying to trick him.

When Chang Han wanted to take out his cell phone to call Sheng Qingning to ask him if he had cheated him, someone suddenly knocked on the door.

Looking back, it turned out to be an elderly woman with some wrinkles on her face.

She spoke something in dialect to the middle-aged woman next to Chang Han.

Chang Han didn't understand, nor did he want to listen. He simply nodded, smiled, said hello, and walked aside.

He stood in front of a photo and began to look at them one by one. What if he found the one he was looking for?

After the middle-aged woman and the other woman finished talking, the middle-aged woman told her that Chang Han was looking for a photo, and she directly asked the middle-aged woman to ask Chang Han to follow her.

Chang Han, who was dazzled by seeing so many photos, followed them in a daze to a room that looked like a conference room.

The man took out a rusty iron box from the transparent glass cabinet.
