Chapter 129 Return to City 49 for Rest
It is now 62, when the plot of "In the Mood for Love" just begins.
Zhang Dongliang went downstairs and Maggie Cheung, no~~Su Lizhen went upstairs. When they passed each other, Zhang Dongliang nodded and smiled at Su Lizhen, as a greeting between neighbors.
Su Lizhen was stunned, didn't say anything, and nodded in response, and the two passed each other.
But I didn't meet Zhou Muyun, played by the greasy-haired Tony Leung, today. I don't know when he will move in. The plot says that there are many Shanghainese living in this building, but Zhang Dongliang didn't hear anyone speaking with a Shanghai accent.
Never mind, if you have the chance, watch the fun, if you don’t, just watch their tragic ending.
It seems that either Xiaodie or some other inexplicable existence was afraid that I would be lonely, so they arranged so many small tidbits for me.
Zhang Dongliang has just called himself a plot spoiler and a plot troublemaker, so he is not afraid of such little tidbits. There is no danger, only women and romance, what is there to be afraid of?
I'm just busy training on the battlefield and don't have time to play with you. Hehe, I either don't participate, or I'll make you look unrecognizable.
Take some time to go to Wing Lee Street and see if you can meet the shoemaker played by Simon Yam.
Zhang Dongliang hummed a smug laugh and turned back home. Knowing that this was another small plot branch, Zhang Dongliang decided not to go out and planned to go directly back to Sijiu City.
After returning home and sitting on the sofa to calm himself down, Zhang Dongliang closed his eyes and communicated with the teleportation coordinates of the New Era Office of Sijiu City with his mind.
"Okay, we've located it." Zhang Dongliang's soul connected to the coordinate point and he silently said "teleport" in his heart.
After a moment of trance, Zhang Dongliang had arrived at the special transmission room of the New Era Office in Sijiu City.
"Ugh~~" A violent dry heave, the feeling was even more uncomfortable than the first time I traveled to this world. This time it was like being drunk and shit.
What do you mean? What kind of words are these?
What this means is that the hangover feels the same as the first time, with a churning stomach and a headache. The shit-like feeling is that the stomach is also uncomfortable and there is a feeling of wanting to have diarrhea.
It's a really ecstatic feeling. It seems the cost of teleportation is really high.
As soon as Zhang Dongliang was teleported into the room, the noise he made alerted the guard outside the door. With a "clatter", the sound of bullets being loaded rang out: "Who is it?"
Enduring the physical pain, Zhang Dongliang rang the specially equipped bell. When the bell rang, the door was quickly opened, and the soldier waiting at the door ran in quickly and helped Zhang Dongliang up.
Zhang Dongliang raised his head and saw through the open door that Director Shang was running towards him quickly.
Xiaodie's voice rang in Zhang Dongliang's mind: "This is because your soul power and body are too weak to withstand the pressure of time and space transmission. With more transmissions in the future, your soul power and physical fitness will improve and everything will be fine."
"But I didn't feel this bad when I traveled through time and space that time."
"In order to train you to grow, I did not provide you with teleportation protection this time. This teleportation uses your own strength."
As for Xiaodie~~ahem~~it means he is still a newbie.
"Comrade Dongliang, are you okay?"
"I'm fine, Director Shang." Zhang Dongliang retched a few more times, wiped the sweat from his head, and said to Director Shang with a pale face.
Director Shang was very thoughtful and even had medical staff nearby. The medical staff quickly checked Zhang Dongliang's body and found nothing serious, except that he was a little weak.
Zhang Dongliang said: "Pour me a glass of water and put some salt and sugar in it."
After drinking a bowl of salt-sugar water, the uncomfortable feeling felt a little better.
Director Shang quickly ordered someone to bring a camp bed and let Zhang Dongliang lie on it to rest for a while.
"Xiao Die, in my current condition, how long will it take me to recover before I can teleport again?"
"It will take about 10 days for the soul to recover and support another transmission."
Got it, the skill cooldown period is 10 days.
"Comrade Dongliang~~"
After resting for half an hour, Zhang Dongliang looked at Director Shang Yucheng's hesitant expression, smiled bitterly and shook his head at him.
There are many things that cannot be said, not because of other reasons, but because of the current environment.
If Zhang Dongliang hadn’t said anything, the New Era Office wouldn’t have produced a report. Without a report, it could be said that nothing had happened.
Zhang Dongliang had previously requested that no one should ask about his mission. Seeing Zhang Dongliang shaking his head, Director Shang Yucheng knew that there must be a reason why he couldn't tell anyone, so he stopped dwelling on the matter.
"Comrade Dongliang, are you going to rest here or go home?"
"I'm going home to rest. I'll report to Director Shang another day."
"Okay, I'll send a car to take you back later."
On the way home, Zhang Dongliang sat in the back seat of the jeep and closed his eyes to rest: "Oh no, I forgot to buy them gifts."
Although it is okay not to buy gifts for business trips, it is the first time for him to be away from them for such a long time. Besides, the National Day is coming soon. Zhang Dongliang would feel bad if he doesn't bring back some gifts.
Then everyone should prepare a set of thermal underwear and a set of cosmetics. Zhang Dongliang counted and found that 5 sets were needed.
Snap! I actually have so many women. No, there are only three. He Yushui and Yu Haitang are just backups. Backups, backups, they haven't been used yet, understand?
When they arrived at the gate of the Fuxiang Hutong courtyard, Zhang Dongliang opened the car door and got out with his bag.
On the way back, the driver was puzzled: "I remember the leader didn't bring his bag when he got on the bus. Did I see it wrong?"
It was just after 4 p.m. when Zhang Dongliang got home. When he walked into the backyard, he happened to see Qin Jingru coming out with a washbasin to wash clothes.
"Brother Dongliang~~" Qin Jingru was suddenly stunned, then threw away the basin in her hand and pounced towards Zhang Dongliang.
"Brother Dongliang, you've been gone for so long, I missed you so much~~Wuwu~~"
"Okay, stop crying. If you keep crying your face will look like a cat." Zhang Dongliang patted Qin Jingru's back gently to comfort her.
This was the longest time Zhang Dongliang had been away since they met. For Qin Jingru, it was really a torment without Zhang Dongliang by her side.
Hearing Qin Jingru's scream, Lou Xiao'e also came out.
"Dongliang~~" Lou Xiao'e was no longer shy and no longer cared about her image outside. She rushed up and hugged Zhang Dongliang tightly.
After not seeing him for more than 10 days, Lou Xiao'e felt as if a huge void had appeared in her life, making her feel at a loss all day long.
Qin Jingru and Lou Xiao'e hugged Zhang Dongliang on both sides, unwilling to let go for a moment, for fear that Zhang Dongliang would disappear in front of them.
The three of them entered the house hugging each other, without even picking up the washbasin that had been thrown on the ground.
Zhang Dongliang smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry, I won't leave recently. Let me put the gift down first."
The three of them had endless things to say to each other. No, it was Qin Jingru and Lou Xiaoe who had endless things to say to Zhang Dongliang.
Zhang Dongliang listened quietly to their stories of missing him, holding them tightly in his arms.
No matter how busy or tired you are outside, when you return home to such a quiet harbor, your mind will be at peace.
