Reborn Troops

Zhou Wanwan was immersed in the joy of having the pendant repaired when she suddenly heard hurried footsteps coming from the store door.

She looked up and saw Zhang Xiang walking in, exhausted, with a look of fatigue and anxiety on his face.

"Zhang Xiang, you're back!" Zhou Wanwan stood up and went to greet him.

Zhang Xiang nodded, his voice a little hoarse: "Wanwan, my condition has stabilized. The doctor said I need to rest for a while. I will come back quickly to check on the pendant."

Zhou Wanwan smiled and handed him the box in her hand: "Don't worry, it has been repaired. Take a look."

Zhang Xiang took the box and opened it carefully. When he saw the brand new bear pendant, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Great, Wanwan, you really did it!"

Zhou Wanwan nodded: "Every old thing has its story. I just try my best to let these stories continue to be passed down."

At this moment, Qianqian came out of the store and saw the pendant in Zhang Xiang's hand. She couldn't help but exclaimed: "Wow, Wanwan, you are so amazing! This pendant looks like a new one."

Zhang Xiang looked at Zhou Wanwan gratefully: "Wanwan, thank you. My mother will be very happy to see this pendant."

Zhou Wanwan smiled and said, "You're welcome. This is what I should do. By the way, Zhang Xiang, how is your condition?"

Zhang Xiang sighed: "The doctor said that she needs to rest for a while, but her condition has stabilized. I came back this time to bring the pendant back for her to see, hoping to make her feel better."

Zhou Wanwan nodded: "That's good. By the way, Zhang Xiang, do you remember the column we talked about before? I want to record this repair process as the first issue of the column."

Zhang Xiang was stunned for a moment, then nodded: "Of course I remember. If you think it's appropriate, I totally agree."

Zhou Wanwan smiled and said, "Thank you for your trust. I will try my best to preserve its original appearance while making it look brand new."

Zhou Wanwan left Zhang Xiang and Qianqian in the store and returned to the studio alone.

She plans to record her conversation with Zhang Xiang and the process of repairing the pendant as the first content of her column.

Sitting next to the workbench, Zhou Wanwan turned on the computer and began to organize her thoughts.

She recalled her conversation with Zhang Xiang and every detail of restoring the pendant.

She hopes that through her writing, readers can feel the uniqueness and significance of this restoration work.

Just as Zhou Wanwan was writing attentively, the door of the studio was gently pushed open.

She looked up and saw a strange woman walking into the studio.

The woman was wearing plain clothes, with a hint of fatigue on her face, but her eyes were full of anticipation.

"Hello, I'm Li Ting, can I talk to you?" The woman's voice was a little hoarse, but she tried her best to remain calm.

Zhou Wanwan stood up and said with a smile, "Of course, please sit down."

Li Ting sat down, looked at Zhou Wanwan, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "I have something, I hope you can help me fix it."

Zhou Wanwan looked at Li Ting and asked curiously, "What is it?"

Li Ting took out a watch from her bag and handed it to Zhou Wanwan: "This is the watch left by my grandfather. It means a lot to me. However, it is broken now. I hope you can help me fix it."

Zhou Wanwan took the watch and looked at it carefully.

The dial of the watch was cracked and the mechanical parts inside were seriously damaged.

She knew it would be a challenging restoration job.

"I can try, but it will take some time," Zhou Wanwan said.

Li Ting nodded: "It doesn't matter, as long as you are willing to try, I am willing to wait."

Zhou Wanwan looked at Li Ting and felt her expectation. She knew that this expectation was the driving force behind her restoration work.

In the next few days, Zhou Wanwan was busy with work.

She had to handle the business in the store while concentrating on repairing Li Ting's watch.

Whenever she saw the watch, she would think of Li Ting's expectant eyes, which made her more determined to repair it.

The work of repairing the watch was much more difficult than Zhou Wanwan had imagined.

The dial of the watch was cracked and needed to be remade, and the mechanical parts inside were also severely damaged and needed to be repaired one by one.

During this process, Zhou Wanwan encountered many difficulties, but she never gave up.

She knew that this watch meant a lot to Li Ting and she couldn't let Li Ting down.

Finally, after a week of hard work, Zhou Wanwan completed the repair of the watch.

When she showed it to Li Ting in the studio, Li Ting's eyes turned red.

"Wanwan, you are so amazing! The watch has returned to its original state, just like my grandfather is still here." Li Ting's voice trembled a little, but she tried to stay calm.

Zhou Wanwan looked at Li Ting and smiled, saying, "This is what I wanted to do for you. For you, this watch is not just an object, but a memory of your grandfather. I hope it can take you back to those good times."

Li Ting nodded and held Zhou Wanwan's hand tightly: "Thank you, Wanwan. You gave me a precious gift."

Watching Li Ting's departing back, Zhou Wanwan felt full of satisfaction. She knew that this was the meaning of her restoration work.

Back in the store, Zhou Wanwan recorded the process of repairing the watch and prepared it as the second issue of the column.

She knows that there are still many old objects waiting for her to restore, and many stories waiting to be known.

Zhou Wanwan smiled and looked ahead firmly. She believed that as long as she persisted, she would be able to make more old things look brand new and let more stories be passed down.
