Let's just drift through life together in this quick transmigration story.

Xu Jiaojiao stayed in the county town for a day and, finding that no one came looking for her, gradually felt relieved.

Going to City C requires entering Beijing, which requires an ID card. Xu Jiaojiao has just turned 18, but her parents haven't obtained an ID card for her. Children from Xujia Village usually only get ID cards when they go out to work or open bank accounts. Moreover, everyone agrees that the police station only issues ID cards to adults, and it's not allowed at other times.

Xu Jiaojiao does not meet any of the three conditions, so the application has been delayed until now, and she has no way to enter Beijing.

However, these challenges were no obstacle for Xu Jiaojiao. After all, she had finished junior high school but failed the high school entrance exam, so she stayed at home. She bought a map at the station, inquired about the buses to each county, wrote them down in a small notebook, and then boarded a bus to head to the neighboring county.

As long as she bypasses Beijing, she can take a direct bus to City C.

Xu Jiaojiao, carrying a schoolbag, looked like a high school student. Coupled with her pure and beautiful appearance, most people showed her kindness. Even if there were a few people with ill intentions, they were all chased away by the others.

Watching the scenery outside the window slowly recede into the distance, Xu Jiaojiao hugged her schoolbag, feeling a wonderful sense of freedom. If A Liang were by her side, it would be even better. With that thought, Xu Jiaojiao placed the pendant against her chest.

When others ask Xu Jiaojiao what she's going to do, she usually says that her grandfather has passed away, so she's going home to see him one last time. She'll even shed a few tears while saying this, and then the others won't ask any more questions.

After finishing her meal, Xiong Bufan went back to her room to study. She had an English exam tomorrow, and she was determined to do her best.

Kongkong asked, a little puzzled, "Bufan, aren't you going to find Xu Jiaojiao?"

Xiong Bufan opened his English book. "No, I'm a good kid. I want to finish my midterm exams."

"She took money from home?"

"The money isn't mine yet. It'll be mine once I rob her."

Kongkong scratched his head and asked, "Is there a difference?"

Xiong Bufan replied with a serious expression: "The difference in ownership is like how I wouldn't rob a bank, but I would rob a bandit for money."

"Don't disturb my studies. Xu Jiaojiao has the protagonist's halo; even if her life is bad, it can't be too bad."

Kongkong: "Okay." The worst time was when you chased and beat her up, and demolished the house where she slept.

Seeing that the light next to Xiong Bufan's was off, Xu's father finally took out a tortoise shell and copper coins to divine the future. He was still worried about Jiaojiao, even though Jiaojiao had disappointed them.

Xu's mother was also watching Xu's father cast the divination sticks. Although they didn't do divination at night, they had already cast the sticks, so they couldn't leave without seeing the result.

Fortunately, the divination results did not disappoint them. Jiao Jiao will encounter some minor setbacks on this trip, but there will be no danger. Every time she encounters difficulties, she will be helped by benefactors and eventually turn danger into safety. Xu Jiao Jiao will eventually complete her journey.

Both of them breathed a sigh of relief upon seeing the divination result. As long as Jiaojiao was safe, that was all that mattered; they would leave the rest to fate.

Xu Jiaojiao stayed at a small hotel in a neighboring county that night. No ID card was required; you could stay there as long as you paid. To be on the safe side, she didn't go out after dark and started taking out her notebook to study which bus to take the next day to another county, what time the bus should be, and where to stay.

The small hotel wasn't very nice. There was only one small window in the room, so you couldn't see the moon or the stars. The bed was about the same size as in a school dormitory. The 20-square-meter room also had a toilet. Xu Jiaojiao felt like she was in prison. But all of this was for her reunion with A Liang, so she could endure it.

If true love can conquer all, then at this moment, Xu Jiaojiao is invincible.

The next day, Xu Jiaojiao continued to take the bus to the neighboring county. She was getting closer and closer to her destination. Xu Jiaojiao was still looking out the window, waiting for the bus to depart.

A young man sat down next to Xu Jiaojiao and patted her on the shoulder. "Hello, we meet again."

Xu Jiaojiao didn't recognize this person at all, so she didn't say anything. She glanced at him and then continued to quietly look out the window.

The young man was still persistent and continued, "My name is Ye Qinqin, and I'm also going to Xinglong County, but I'm going to school."

"Um"

Encouraged by the response, the young man continued, "What are you going there for?"

"My grandfather passed away, and I'm going back to see him one last time." With that, Xu Jiaojiao turned her head to look out the window again.

The car started, and the young man shut up. He hadn't expected to start a conversation; he'd just run into a guy with a dead grandfather, and this was just bringing up painful memories.

Xu Jiaojiao had used the excuse of her deceased grandfather many times without fail, and now she was happy to have some peace and quiet. When she was out and about, she gave herself her own identity, and that was also the reason she went out.

Xiong Bufan sat quietly in the classroom taking the exam. Xu Yaqin, who was sitting not far away, still had swollen eyes. She hadn't said a word during the school session, and Xiong Bufan hadn't asked her anything either.

He was better at English than math and Chinese. Xiong Bufan had a good memory and remembered many words and their meanings. Although he didn't understand why a word could have so many meanings, it didn't stop him from remembering the meanings in the book.

Listening and reading comprehension were not problems, but error correction and composition were a bit of a challenge, so Xiong Bufan could only bite the bullet and write.

The bell rang, signaling the end of the exam, and the teacher collected the papers.
