Time Travel: Female Cannon Fodder of the Republic of China

Baiguo didn't see the treasure box either, and thought she didn't get the old lady's treasure.

Seeing that she had been locking herself in her room, I thought she was sad.

In fact, Ai Shutong was sorting out the belongings she had obtained in the house.

Among the eight boxes in the first stone chamber, there are three boxes of gold bars and five boxes of silver ingots.

In the second stone chamber, there were four boxes of head ornaments and four boxes of antique calligraphy and paintings.

Ai Shutong was very excited and kept walking around the room to relieve her high emotions.

Her mind was in a mess now. All kinds of ideas came to her mind one after another, but she rejected them one by one and threw them out of her mind.

If there were any bystanders, they would definitely think she was a psychopath. It would be fine if she just walked around the room, but she also shook her head and nodded from time to time.

After shaking her head and nodding, she laughed out loud again, "Stay calm, Ai Shutong, you must stay calm! Otherwise, others will notice something unusual when you go out."

After some mental preparation, Ai Shutong finally went downstairs to eat the next morning.

Shen Jiaxing and Shen Jialing were also there, so it was natural for them to share a table.

"Shutong, are you okay?"

Shen Jiaxing asked with concern.

Ai Shutong swallowed the egg in her mouth and looked back at him in confusion, "It's okay! I'm fine, why are you asking?"

Shen Jialing looked at her with some worry in her eyes, "You didn't go out all day yesterday. I asked Xia Yu to look for you, but Bai Guo said you were sleeping."

Ai Shutong pulled the corners of her mouth hard and said with a laugh: "Haha, it's okay, I found a book I like and read it all night."

Shen Jialing was full of disbelief, "What's so interesting about books! It's so boring. Wangfujing is still a good place to go shopping. Sister Ai, do you want to go shopping with me today?"

Ai Shutong shook her head and refused. "I have already found Lin's mother. The matter in Beijing has come to an end. I will wait for her reply in two days. Whether I leave or stay, I will return to Shanghai. What about you?"

Shen Jialing clapped her hands, "Great! Great! This way, we can still get back to Shanghai before the first day of the new year!"

Shen Jiaxing glanced at her expressionlessly, "Why are you rushing back to Shanghai? Do you still want to spend the New Year with your parents?"

"You are now a rebellious girl just like me. They won't come to ask you to go back."

"If you want to go back, go back by yourself. I won't go back to suffer."

"You have to think about it. When you go back, I'm not here, and you'll have to face their anger alone."

"Think about it. With your small body, can you afford it?!"

The joy on Shen Jialing's face disappeared, leaving only worry.

After a moment of silence, Shen Jialing looked up and asked, "Sister Ai, if it were you, would you go back?"

Ai Shutong originally thought that she was just a spectator, but she didn't expect Shen Jialing to suddenly ask her what she thought.

She considered it for a moment and gave an ambiguous answer: "It depends on the situation. I may go back, or I may not."

Shen Jialing continued to ask, "Sister Ai, can you be more specific?"

Ai Shutong: “…”

You asked me to say it, and now I’ve said it. You can’t blame me if you’re unhappy!

"If I am punished, I will definitely not go back."

Shen Jialing: "Why?"

Ai Shutong: "I'm not a masochist. How could I go back knowing I'd be punished?"

"I have always made my own decisions since I was young. I love freedom and don't like being restricted by others."

"So even if they don't punish me, but just restrict me and tell me what I should and shouldn't do, I can't stand it!"

After these words, the loneliness on Shen Jialing's face became more obvious.

Ai Shutong was speechless at her self-abuse. She didn't want to say it at first, but she was forced to say it.

She told the truth, and you still can't stand it! Isn't this asking for trouble?

At this moment, she fully realized that they were not the same kind of people at all and were destined not to become very close friends.

A day later, Ai Shutong drove to Li's house again.

When Ai Shutong saw Lin's mother carrying a bag in Jingyuan, she knew her choice.

"Wait here for a moment. I'll go and pay my respects to the master."

After Li Cheng brought Ai Shutong to Li Maili's study, he retreated.

"The New Year is coming soon, why don't you spend the New Year in Beijing before leaving?"

"I was thinking of letting you meet your eldest brother and two sisters then!"

Ai Shutong: "I am used to freedom and don't take the Chinese New Year very seriously. Now that I have new business to start in Shanghai, I am thinking about going back."

Li Maili: "What new business?"

Ai Shutong: "Master, do you know the wealthy Xiqiaoyuan Shen family in Shanghai?"

Li Maili thought for a while and said, "The Shen family, the former landlords in Zhejiang?"

Ai Shutong nodded. "His eldest son Shen Jiaxing is my teacher. He wants to raise funds to set up a savings bank. I want to get involved and set up a women's business department."

Li Maili praised: "Shanghai has developed very fast in recent years. Banking business is easy to do. If you have the background and connections, you can do well in it."

Ai Shutong: "Yes, it is indeed very promising."

Li Maili: "Since you have something important to do, I won't force you to stay. After the New Year, I will go to Shanghai and we'll see each other again."

Ai Shutong said goodbye respectfully and left the study.

I took Lin Ma and called a rickshaw back to the Beijing Hotel.

When Xia Yu saw Lin's mother, she was very nervous and called her "Manager Lin."

Mother Lin looked her up and down and said, "You look like you've suffered a lot."

Xia Yu waved his hands excitedly, "It was less than a year ago that I met the young lady again. She treated me very well."

Mother Lin gave her a complicated look. She had misunderstood Xia Yu when he returned to the Jin Mansion.

I thought Xia Yu went to Li Yanran to tip off the girl and persecute her, but I didn't expect that he was a loyal man.

"You are a grateful person. Follow the young lady well in the future, care about her and take good care of her."

Xia Yu lowered his head and responded, "Okay, Manager Lin, I'll make a note of it."

Two flowers bloom, one branch each.

Many years after leaving Peking University, Shen Jiaxing came back to see his old friend.

I didn’t go to the original science building, but came to the School of Arts.

As soon as I entered the office, Gao Caixue grabbed my neck.

"Hey man, why did you come back so suddenly? You should have told me in advance, and I would have picked you up at the train station."

Shen Jiaxing: "I am a poor professor who lives in a school dormitory and has to rely on the school office heating in winter. How can I let you spend a lot of money to pick me up?"

Gao Caixue pouted, "Your mouth is getting more and more poisonous."

Shen Jiaxing coaxed him with one move: "I have an appointment with Professor Zhang to eat shabu-shabu at noon, do you want to go?"

Gao Caixue smiled happily, "Go, go, I'm not here to take advantage of your food, I just want to talk to you after not seeing you for so long!"

Shen Jiaxing looked at him with amusement, "I know, I won't misunderstand you!"

Gao Caixue laughed, "Xiao Shen! I knew you were a trustworthy person."
