A life of two souls traveling through time

Chapter 3 Accidental Collapse in the Museum

Guxi City

An ancient capital filled with profound historical and cultural heritage, illuminated by bright lights at night, reveals its extraordinary ancient charm.

"Si Yao, I've sent your phone the training schedule for next week."

In the hotel, team leader Chen Yiyi sat next to Jiang Siyao with her cell phone in hand.

"Thank you, senior." Jiang Siyao took off his headset and smiled at Chen Yiyi.

"Aren't you bored?" Liu Jie, another teammate dressed sexy and hot, suddenly leaned lazily against the door, looking expectantly at Chen Yiyi on the sofa and asked, "I just checked and found a bar street nearby. It must be very lively at this time. Do you want to join us?"

"It's already ten o'clock. Stop thinking about playing. If you delay tomorrow's performance, be careful that the captain will skin you alive." Chen Yiyi glanced at the time and immediately shook her head in rejection.

"We are more than capable of handling a small performance. How could we possibly delay it?" Liu Jie brushed her loose hair disapprovingly, and glanced at Jiang Siyao with contempt: "But Xiao Jiang should really prepare well. After all, for an intern who hasn't graduated yet, this performance opportunity is rare, so don't let her down!"

Jiang Siyao snorted inwardly at the harsh words and put on a fake smile:

“Sister Liu is right. I’m just an unskilled intern, so how can I have the qualifications to play? But since you’re new here and you’re going out to get drunk late at night, you’d better be careful and watch out for someone to pick up... your body…” Jiang Siyao even deliberately dragged out the sound of the last two words.

"Jiang Siyao, what are you talking about?" Liu Jie immediately put her hands on her hips and walked towards Jiang Siyao and started to pester her: "Why, are you afraid that we will steal your limelight tomorrow, so you cursed us so viciously?"

"Ahem, Liu Jie, stop talking..." Chen Yiyi hurriedly spoke out to stop her. Having worked with Liu Jie for many years, she knew that this woman always liked to bully interns by relying on her qualifications. Although most of the time the interns chose to endure it, the usually cowardly Jiang Siyao suddenly became bold today and even dared to talk back to Liu Jie.

"How could my kind reminder be regarded as a malicious curse? Oh, it's really hard to be a good person!" In the past, Jiang Siyao would naturally choose to mind her own business and just endure it, but now she knows that there is a personality behind her who will come out to clean up her mess, and she has unconsciously become bolder.

"you......"

"Alright, alright, stop arguing!" In order to have a smooth performance tomorrow, Chen Yiyi, who always likes to be a peacemaker, had to show her authority as a leader: "Liu Jie, after the performance tomorrow, I have no right to interfere with what you want to do, but you are not allowed to go out tonight!"

"You rely on being the captain's right-hand man and you actually put on airs in front of me!" Upon hearing this, Liu Jie's face instantly fell and she turned around and went to the bathroom angrily.

Chen Yiyi glanced at Jiang Siyao, who was sitting on the sofa with disdain and still enjoying the song with earphones on, sighed lightly, then walked out of the room with her cell phone.

With carved courtyards, white walls and green tiles, this antique museum is a different world. In the huge inner courtyard, rockery and flowing water are adjacent to the lake, and there is a circular stage in the center of the lake.

A clear flute sound slowly sounded, and three dancers in wide-sleeved ink-painted dance skirts moved to the center of the stage with light steps, with wisps of smoke floating under their feet, and danced to the music.

The corridors surrounding the small lake were crowded with people. At this time, most of the tourists were attracted by the classical dance on the stage. They stopped and set up their mobile phones to start taking pictures. The propagandists at both ends of the corridor also took the opportunity to promote the cultural content of today's promotion.

An hour later...

Before she could change out of her ink-wash dance dress, Jiang Siyao, with her long black hair loose, came out of the dressing room holding her phone:

"Mom, what's wrong?"

"It's been a while since we last contacted each other...How have you been recently?" Jiang Siyao's mother's gentle but cautious greeting came from the other end of the line.

"Yeah, it's fine." There was a hint of unfamiliarity in Jiang Siyao's calm tone.

"Nothing... I just wanted to call you. By the way, is the money I transferred to you last week enough?"

"I am now interning in a dance group and can support myself, so don't give me money in the future."

"Yaoyao...you...are you still blaming me?"

Jiang Siyao was silent for a few seconds. It would be a lie to say that she didn't blame him. When her mother, the only one she wanted to rely on, suddenly told her that she wanted to start a family with someone else, it was like a knife piercing her heart. Although she got along well with that family later, she always felt that she was an outsider and could not fully integrate into it.

"It's been so long, what's so strange about it..." Jiang Siyao smiled casually and continued, "You have the right to choose your life. As long as you live a good life, I will be relieved."

"Don't worry about that. Your uncle Li treats me well."

"that's great."

"It's just.....Hey, do you really plan to graduate and not go back home to find a job?"

"Didn't my grandfather always complain that I was too weak? It's good for me to come out and gain experience now." That's all I could say, and the bigger reason was of course to escape.

Jiang Siyao was wandering around the exhibition area while whispering to her mother on the phone. Fortunately, most of the tourists were attracted by the performances outside and there were almost no people in the exhibition area.

"But you are alone in a big city, with high consumption and high pressure. We are worried about you..."

"There's nothing to worry about. I'm all grown up."

Then, there was silence on the other end of the phone for a long time before a soft voice came again:

"Xiaoyu was asking her sister when she would be home yesterday?"

"......"

"Yaoyao...I'm sorry...Mom owes you..."

"Mom, I'm still working here. I'm hanging up now." Hearing his mother's sobs, Jiang Siyao frowned and interrupted her in a hurry.

"Okay, then you go ahead and get busy." There was a sigh and a lost tone from the other end of the phone.

After hanging up the phone, Jiang Siyao breathed a sigh of relief, and looked up to find herself standing in front of a bronze statue of a general riding a warhorse and waving a sword forward. Just as she squatted down to look at it curiously, there was suddenly a loud noise, and Jiang Siyao and the bronze statue in front of her fell into a collapsed deep pit at the same time.

"Hey, what's the sound?"

In the dressing room, Chen Yiyi and Liu Jie were also frightened by the loud noise.

"The ground of one of the exhibition areas has collapsed. You should quickly pack up your things and evacuate outside." At this time, a staff member of the museum rushed in anxiously.

"What? Collapse?" Liu Jie was so scared that she stood up from the chair.

"But we still have one team member who hasn't returned..." Chen Yiyi failed to get through to Jiang Siyao's call and looked anxious.

"I can't worry about that anymore. You guys should evacuate first and ensure your own safety. We will come find the person."

Under the strong urging of the staff, Chen Yiyi and Liu Jie had to evacuate the museum first.

At this time, there was a commotion outside the museum. Tourists were still evacuating, and ambulances and fire trucks arrived one after another.
