Chapter 9 The Educated Youth Office Arrests People

Sure enough, Ji Sisi had only taken a few steps forward when she saw Qi Yan sitting upright in his seat, staring intently at the entrance.

She smiled and walked towards him. "Why are you here so early?"

Qi Yan stood up and naturally took the luggage from her hands.

Qi Yan smiled slightly, his heart pounding excitedly the moment he saw Ji Sisi.

Last night, thinking about how he would build a family with her in the future, and even have children of their own, Qi Yan couldn't hide his excitement and didn't fall asleep until 2 a.m.

"Are you tired? Sit down for a while." Qi Yan moved the luggage that was taking up his seat and silently placed all the luggage in front of him, trying his best to make Ji Sisi more comfortable.

Ji Sisi was exhausted after spending an hour and a half moving things early in the morning.

"Yes, have you packed everything?" Ji Sisi asked Qi Yan.

Qi Yan recalled Ji Sisi's instructions from last night, and his ears turned red at a visible speed. After a moment, he nodded.

Looking at him like this, someone who didn't know him might think it was Ji Sisi flirting with someone.

"It's done."

Ji Sisi tilted her head and stared at Qi Yan in surprise.

All she did was ask Qi Yan to sew the money into his vest pocket. How could this man be so shameless? Isn't this a unique way of hiding money in this era?

Some people even sew a pocket into their underwear specifically to hide money.

Soon it was time to check tickets and board the train. Ji Sisi looked back at the exit and thought of the big gift she had left for Wang Cuifen's family. She felt a little regretful that she hadn't been able to witness it.

A vintage green train, its engine whistling and emitting white steam, slowly pulls into the station.

Their tickets were next to each other, and they found their seats smoothly after boarding the train.

Just as Ji Sisi sat down, a familiar female voice called out to her, "Hello, I get train sickness, could you switch seats with me?"

Ji Sisi looked up and saw that the person speaking was the same one she had met at the train station earlier.

Considering her attitude, Ji Sisi refused without hesitation, "Sorry, I'm dizzy too. You can switch with someone else."

Even without that little incident, Ji Sisi wouldn't have switched places with someone else.

"Comrade, I really do get carsick. I know you're upset that I didn't give you my seat earlier, which is why you don't want to switch seats with me, right?"

Guo Xiaolan had a stern face and a contemptuous attitude.

"Think what you want, I'm not changing. Go find someone else, there will always be a kind person who will take pity on you." Ji Sisi smiled insincerely, her tone casual.

Ji Sisi's unspoken message was: Give up, I'm not the kind person you're looking for.

Guo Xiaolan hadn't expected her to refuse so directly, and the words of moral blackmail that were on the tip of her tongue were swallowed back.

She asked at least a dozen people after getting on the bus, but none of them were willing to switch.

Guo Xiaolan then set her sights on Ji Sisi, who was in the same row.

"what happened?"

Qi Yan put down his luggage and walked over, only to see Ji Sisi looking out the window with her head turned away, looking rather uninterested.

Guo Xiaolan's eyes followed Qi Yan closely. When she saw the man's handsome face, she nervously cleared her throat.

Guo Xiaolan spoke softly, her voice sweet, "Comrade, could you help me put these things down? They're too heavy for me to lift by myself."

Ji Sisi turned her head, her brows furrowing into a small crease.

Is this the same person who yelled at her earlier?

Unexpectedly, Qi Yan didn't even glance at her, ignoring Guo Xiaolan's words as if they were nothing, and simply walked past her back to his seat.

Ignored, Guo Xiaolan's smile froze on her face. Undeterred, she pleaded, "Comrade, helping others is a virtue; can't you help me?"

"Thank you, but I don't need virtues," Qi Yan replied seriously.

Ji Sisi chuckled, suppressing her laughter as she reminded him, "Lady, please don't make things difficult for my fiancé. You should give this virtue to someone else."

"Is he your fiancé?" Guo Xiaolan was furious and embarrassed, feeling like she had just made a fool of herself.

Shame filled her heart. She silently placed her luggage at her feet. Knowing she still had to spend a day and a night with the two of them, Guo Xiaolan was determined to regain her dignity!
Wang Cuifen tossed and turned all night and couldn't sleep well, finally falling asleep at four in the morning.

"Mom! Our house has been burgled!"

Ji Nian got up to make breakfast in the morning and was so shocked by the empty kitchen and living room that she was speechless.

Wang Cuifen was smiling in her dreams. She dreamt that she was attending Ji Hao's wedding, where all the prominent figures in Jianghai City were present. Everyone was envious of her for having a good son, and she was overwhelmed by the praise.

"Mom, don't sleep!" Ji Nian anxiously nudged Wang Cuifen on the bed.

Her sweet dream was interrupted, and Wang Cuifen got up in a huff, yelling, "You brat, what do you want from me? I didn't fall asleep until four last night, let me sleep a little longer!"

"If you keep sleeping like this, your house will be gone! Come out and see for yourself!" Ji Nian was furious. What kind of time is this to be thinking about sleeping?!

Wang Cuifen was puzzled, but seeing Ji Nian's flustered expression, she got up and went out.

Seeing that there was only a sofa left in the living room, Wang Cuifen stood there with her mouth agape, at a loss for what to do.

Ji Nian was irritated and frustrated. "It must be Ji Sisi who stole all the things while we were asleep, intending to take them to the Northwest for herself!"

Wang Cuifen didn't say anything and hurriedly ran to the kitchen.

The kitchen was also completely empty. A surge of anger shot through her, making her dizzy with rage.

"Bitch!"

Wang Cuifen jogged into the room and got dressed. "Let's go, we'll call the police. We can't let that little slut get away with this. I'll make her spit everything out!"

Ji Nian nodded, feeling even more disgusted with Ji Sisi. It was one thing for Ji Sisi to go to her death in the Northwest, but she also had to disgust people after leaving. It seemed that she really made the right choice in arranging the marriage with Ji Sisi!
Ji Sisi deserves all of this!

Before the mother and daughter even left the house, they ran into people from the educated youth office.

"This is the Ji family home, right?"

Director Zhang stopped her and hurried toward Cuifen.

As soon as he went upstairs, he saw the mother and daughter looking anxious, and Director Zhang couldn't help but wonder if Ji Nian was trying to escape and avoid being sent to the countryside.

Upon seeing Director Zhang's red armband, Wang Cuifen, disregarding what was written on it, grabbed Director Zhang and began to complain.

"Yes, it's the Ji family! Comrade, you must stand up for our family!"

Director Zhang pulled his hand away. "What decision do you have? I'm just informing Ji Nian and Ji Hao to go to the countryside. Their train to the black market is tomorrow morning. Remember to pack your luggage tonight."

Wang Cuifen and Ji Nian were stunned.

"Who did you say went to the countryside?" Ji Nian asked incredulously, wondering if she had misheard.

She has a trial job, while Ji Hao only lost his job two days ago. How could he possibly be assigned to go to the countryside?

Shouldn't it be Ji Sisi who should be sent to the countryside?

Director Zhang repeated, "Ji Nian and Ji Hao, these two comrades have successfully registered. It's great that two children from one family can go to the countryside. The leaders have even given you special praise, saying that your family has a high level of ideological awareness. Don't let them down. They will keep an eye on you!"

Ji Nian shook her head, her lips twitching. "No, impossible, I never signed up!"

At this moment, another group of people arrived at the Ji family's residence. The man in the lead took the initiative to ask, "Hello, is this Ji Hao's home?"
