Quick Travel: Destiny for Thirty Lifetimes

Lian Qingyang took the package and letter that had been placed separately, weighed them gently, and thanked Ji Yunchen: "Thank you, Comrade Ji."

Others also took the time to chime in: "By the way, thank you Comrade Ji for helping deliver the letter!"

"Thank you for your hard work, Comrade Ji! Serve the people!"

"Comrade Ji, have you eaten yet? Do you want to eat something?"

Ji Yunchen nodded to the man to indicate that he had eaten, then clinked his lips with Lian Qingyang and said, "Then I'll go back first. I'll bring you some watermelon juice tonight."

It had been very hot these past few days, so Ji Yunchen would bring him a water bottle of watermelon juice from time to time, and wait for him to drink it before taking it back. This afternoon, he might have been busy delivering the letter, so he didn't bring the water bottle. Lian Qingyang nodded in agreement and waved goodbye to him.

After Ji Yunchen left, Lian Qingyang came into the house carrying a package. He sat in the corner. After entering, he sat down with his back to the door and began to unwrap the cloth bag. On the top were a few summer clothes, followed by high school textbooks. Although he didn't know if they would be used for the college entrance examination, it wouldn't be a problem to learn from them first.

He flipped through each book casually, and only after roughly matching the knowledge in the book with the knowledge in his mind did he carefully put the book down, covered it with the clothes again, and picked up the letter next to it and opened it to read.

There were no particularly important words in the letter, just some greetings and instructions. The family members were all doing well now. The eldest brother had been promoted, and the younger brother was learning to write and recite poems. He often thought of his second brother and was very well-behaved and sensible.

The family members all believed what Lian Qingyang said, and told them to remember to write if they had any other requests, and they would definitely do what they could.

After reading the letter, Lian Qingyang sniffed, carefully folded the letter, put it in the envelope, and then put it under the pillow.

When I walked out of the house, some people in the yard were still reading the letter word by word. A male educated youth started to cry while reading. He was afraid that his tears would drip onto the letter paper, so he quickly wiped his tears and continued reading with a pout.

When Lin Haojun saw Lian Qingyang, he casually stuffed his letter into his pocket and approached him to ask, "Have they all been sent?"

Lian Qingyang nodded, his eyes full of expectations for the future: "We must work hard in the future!"

Lin Haojun pursed his lips, curved his eyes, and nodded vigorously.

"Qingyang! Qingyang! Something bad has happened!"

Lian Qingyang stood up, exchanged glances with Ji Yunchen, and then looked at the person who came. Lin Haojun didn't come to work today, so Ji Yunchen took over his shift for a day. They had just arrived in the afternoon and hadn't done much when Lin Haojun trotted to the field.

"What's wrong? Why are you running so fast?" Lian Qingyang supported the breathless Lin Haojun and asked in confusion.

Lin Haojun took a few quick breaths, and after calming himself down, he spoke anxiously, "I don't know who found the remaining books of yours, tore them up, and threw them next to the firewood pile to use as kindling. I just saw them while washing dishes. I asked the people who cooked lunch, but they all said they didn't know."

Lian Qingyang's expression froze, and he frowned and repeated, "Tear it up?"

It is now approaching October, and the day when the resumption of the college entrance examination will be announced is not far away. In the past two months, Lian Qingyang has been secretly helping Lin Haojun and Ji Yunchen to understand and recite the knowledge points in the books. Due to the heavy farm work, they have not had much free time and have learned very little, but they have always gone to Ji Yunchen's secret base to study and hid several of the books there, and no one has ever discovered them.

It's not that Lian Qingyang is unwilling to share, but the news of resuming the college entrance examination has not come yet, and it is unlikely that he can lead everyone to study together. Except for the reborn Lin Haojun and Ji Yunchen who unconditionally believes in him, there is no reason for others to agree with his words. Maybe they will be caught by the bad guy and framed.

Lin Haojun nodded, his brows full of worry. "Those books were torn up before we even started studying. What if someone reports us?"

Lian Qingyang suddenly asked him, "Did you put away the torn papers?"

Lin Haojun was stunned, shook his head at him, and said dryly: "I was confused after seeing it, and I just wanted to tell you first..."

"Okay, I got it. You go back first." Lian Qingyang lowered his eyes and thought for a few moments, then looked up and told Lin Haojun calmly.

"Huh?" Lin Haojun was a little dumbfounded, standing still. He was a little confused about Lian Qingyang's thoughts, so he could only ask, "But, aren't we going to find that person? How are we going to learn from now on?"

Ji Yunchen's Mandarin was much better now. He followed Lian Qingyang's words and said, "Since Lian Zhiqing said so, there must be a way. Lin Zhiqing, you go back first. We can handle the rest after we finish the work."

Lin Haojun had no choice but to shut his mouth, glanced at Lian Qingyang, lowered his head and turned back in disappointment.

After Lin Haojun walked away, Ji Yunchen lowered his eyes and looked at Lian Qingyang who was still working. He moved closer to him and asked, "Are you okay? If things really don't work out, I'll try to find a way to get those books. Maybe Uncle Zhang, the junk collector, has them."

"It's okay." Lian Qingyang shook his head, his hands still working. "We don't have much time to study, so let's memorize the knowledge from the textbooks first."

"By the way, will the country really reinstate the college entrance examination? I...it's not that I don't believe you, I just want to say that even if it's not because of the college entrance examination, I have decided to go out and take a look."

"Yeah." Lian Qingyang tilted his head, a smile flashing in his eyes, "Let's go together."

Returning to the courtyard in the evening, Lian Qingyang walked straight into the house. People passing by greeted him naturally, and he raised the corners of his lips in response. After entering the house, he saw only a dark figure lying on the bed. He paused, walked closer with light steps, and whispered, "Lin Haojun?"

The dark figure on the bed trembled, raised his head, and said in a muffled voice, "Lian Zhiqing, you're back."

"What's going on?" Lian Qingyang sat down on his bed, not paying attention to the unpacked package beside his pillow.

Lin Haojun choked up, remembering to speak softly: "What should we do? What should we do? The book is torn, we can't take the college entrance examination, am I going to die before the college entrance examination again..."

Before he could finish his words, he was patted on the head. Lian Qingyang withdrew his hand and leaned on the bed, whispering, "Lin Haojun, do you believe me? You will leave here smoothly and get into university."

"As for the person who tore up my book, I think I already have a clue." He looked up at the door he had just closed and whispered to Lin Haojun, "Keep talking quietly. I'll go check at the door."

Lin Haojun's eyes widened, his expression a little dull, but he murmured obediently, keeping the volume just loud enough to be heard at the door, and his eyes followed Lian Qingyang's figure.

Was Lian Zhiqing a cat in his previous life? How could he walk so lightly?

Silently tiptoeing to the door, Lian Qingyang swung it open. The people outside couldn't dodge and spoke awkwardly, "Lian Zhiqing, Lin Zhiqing, the meal is ready. I saw you weren't here to tell you to come and eat."
