Rebirth in a Book: The Road to Breakthrough

"Box, it's hard to say whether I forgive or not. We made an agreement when we got engaged that we would see if we like each other when we grow up, and we can't force each other. So we both have the right to like others. Although we are engaged, our marriage is free. If one of us changes his or her mind, we will still bless each other in the end."

"Host, do you like Fu Tiezhu?"

"Like, who would reject someone who is devoted to you, cares about you deeply, and supports you silently."

"Host, what will you do?"

"It doesn't matter. You can't stop people from leaving. Some people are destined to be memories."

"Host, are you sad?"

"Sadness is temporary, and it's better than hurting each other."

"You humans have really complicated emotions."

"Box, you shouldn't worry about whether human emotions are complicated or not. You should worry about when the mission can be completed. Otherwise, we would all be molecules in the universe."

"Hey, host, you have to work harder. We don't pursue love, we pursue careers and beauty alone."

"Haha, okay, pursuing a career and being beautiful on my own has always been my pursuit."

After that, Yu Congcong carried the basket on his back and went up the mountain to pick mushrooms. The weather was getting cooler and there were fewer mushrooms on the mountain. This might be the last time to pick mushrooms this year.

Yu Congcong was very focused because she had always been lucky. It was the busy farming season recently and there were few villagers picking mushrooms, which gave Yu Congcong a great bargain.

In the fields, Liu Hong was in a group with the educated youth. The team leader assigned her to the group for the convenience of management. Little did he know that this was exactly what Liu Hong wanted.

The dress had been hanging there for a while, but there was no sound at all. She was a little anxious, and she wanted to find Su Ting to get some fresh air, but she found that someone in the village was always watching her, so she couldn't find any opportunity.

"What's going on? Your method doesn't work. My clothes are almost torn to pieces." Liu Hong approached Su Ting and continued cutting rice with her hands, but asked Su Ting in a low voice.

"Don't move, just hang there." Su Ting answered Liu Hong without stopping his hands.

Shen Qingqing didn't get along with Su Ting, and she kept an eye on him all the time. At this time, she heard the conversation between Liu Hong and Su Ting, and said, "Aunt Liu, what are you talking about with Su Zhiqing? You are not going to teach Su Zhiqing the technique of harvesting rice!"

"No, we met and said hello." Liu Hong replied.

"Really? I don't think so. After Su Zhiqing talked to you, the speed of cutting rice became obviously faster. What do you think?" Shen Qingqing continued, and also pulled the educated youth in the same group.

"Shen Zhiqing, that's not true." Liu Hong continued to deny.

"Aunt Liu, you don't have to be modest. We are all seeing your contribution. That's right! You can't favor one over the other. You should teach us too! Do you all want to learn?" Shen Qingqing continued to lobby.

"Yes." The educated youth present answered in unison.

Seeing that Liu Hong was in trouble, Su Ting sped up and fled the scene. In the eyes of the educated youth at the scene, this confirmed that Liu Hong had taught Su Ting the skills.

Liu Hong had no way of defending herself and could only tell the educated youth how she usually harvested rice.

"Aunt Liu, this is nothing special. We all cut it this way. Why is it so slow?"

"I said I don't have any skills, it's just that Su Zhiqing himself is fast."

"Tsk, I thought there was some trick." The educated youth complained in unison.

The team leader saw all of this and did not stop the little incident between Liu Hong and the educated youth.

After Yu Congcong came home from picking mushrooms, she cooked a delicious meal for Liu Dani and Xiaocao. During the meal, she also asked Yu Miaomiao to send a bowl of spicy rabbit meat and mushroom chicken soup to Fu Tiezhu's family.

The day passed like this, and it was evening.

"Box, start!"

"Well, host, please pay attention."

"Okay." Yu Congcong closed her eyes, concentrated her attention, and recalled the knowledge she had invested in her mind.

"Box, what is this? I don't understand it. Wait, it looks familiar."

"Isn't it? I feel familiar with it, too."

"Oh, don't keep me in suspense. What's going on?"

"Host, do you still remember the cave where you first hid the national treasure?" Yu Congcong frowned, thought about it seriously, and really remembered the cave. "It's that record book!" Yu Congcong exclaimed.

The system nodded frantically in his mind, "So that's it, no wonder I couldn't understand it."

"Box, you can understand it now, right? Translate it for the translator."

"Okay, host, the amount of information is a bit overwhelming, please put aside all distractions and take it in seriously."

Yu Congcong waited seriously again. After about two hours, Yu Congcong felt a swelling pain in his head and felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Host, you should take a rest and sort out your knowledge tomorrow."

"Okay." Yu Congcong fell asleep in a second.

Since Yuan Zhe came back from the county, he and Su Ting have been in a cold war. Apart from the necessary exchanges in life, the two have almost no other conversations. Yuan Zhe has been expecting Su Ting to explain to him, but Su Ting does not want Yuan Zhe to be involved. In this way, the two have been in a lukewarm stalemate.

Yuan Zhe had been watching everything that happened in Daoli today. He was so worried that he tossed and turned in bed, unable to fall asleep. When everyone fell asleep, the village was so quiet that only the sounds of insects, birds and frogs could be heard. Yuan Zhe could not resist the worry in his heart, so he got up and knocked on Su Ting's door.

Su Ting was not asleep either. She was wondering what the purpose of the marks left by Sawada Sakura on Liu Hong's clothes was.

When she heard the knock on the door, she thought it was Liu Hong. When she opened the door and saw that it was Yuan Zhe, she couldn't help but asked in surprise: "Why are you still awake?"

Yuan Zhe did not answer, but said softly: "Tingting, let's talk."

Su Ting naturally knew what Yuan Zhe wanted to talk about. He pretended to be tired and avoided the topic, saying, "Yuan Zhe, let's talk about it tomorrow. It's very late now, and I have to go to work tomorrow. I'm really tired."

Yuan Zhe saw that Su Ting looked tired and couldn't bear to make things difficult for her anymore, so he turned around and went back to the house silently.

Back in the house, he figured it out. Su Ting just wanted to avoid talking about it. He felt very frustrated. They were already at the stage of talking about marriage. What else could Su Ting not tell him? He sat alone on the bed, his eyes showing a trace of helplessness and loss, his heart full of doubts and confusion. Why did they come to this? The close relationship they once had has now become so strange. He sighed deeply, as if he wanted to expel all the annoyance in his heart.

After Yuan Zhe returned to his room, Su Ting felt very uneasy. She knew that her concealment from Yuan Zhe had hurt Yuan Zhe. But what she was going to do was very dangerous, and she didn't want Yuan Zhe to pay an unpredictable price for her.
