Reborn in 1999: Starting as a black marketeer

After having breakfast at Zengsheng Kuimeimei, Wang Feiyang felt that the meat patties and tofu pudding were much tastier than any steak dinner that cost over a hundred US dollars per person!

"Everything else in Moscow is fine, except for the food. It's nothing like what we have back home. I'm pretty adaptable, and I can handle Western food, but I just can't stand bread and milk for breakfast every day," Wang Feiyang said with a smile.

While taking small bites of the sugar-coated fried dough, Tian Tian nodded repeatedly, chewing her food as she mumbled, "Mmm~ Every time I come back from abroad, I have to come here for breakfast right away to feel truly at home~"

The shop was bustling with people having breakfast, creating a lively atmosphere. Greetings and laughter filled the air, a bit noisy but not jarring. The aroma of freshly baked beef patties wafted through the air, instantly bringing the whole city to life. This must be what they call the warmth and vibrancy of everyday life.

This feeling is something you absolutely cannot experience in Moscow or any other European or American city.

Tian Tian is a very talkative and cheerful girl. During breakfast, Wang Feiyang got a general understanding of her situation.

This is a typical Beijing girl, outspoken and straightforward, passionate and decisive. She probably comes from a well-off family and has been pampered and spoiled since childhood, with a face that looks like she's never been bullied.

In fact, Wang Feiyang quite liked her personality; she wasn't coy and said what she meant.

"After dinner, shall I take you around? We won't go to any tourist attractions, just drive around. Sometimes when I'm bored, I like to wander around aimlessly like this," Tian Tian asked.

"That's fine. I don't come to the capital very often, and even when I do, it's usually just passing through in a hurry. I rarely have the patience to take a good look at the city," Wang Feiyang said with a touch of emotion.

He wasn't very familiar with this city. In this life, he had only passed through it once two months ago when he went to Moscow, and he went straight to the airport without getting off the highway. In his previous life, every time he came to Beijing, it was a quick visit. He was indeed unfamiliar with the city and had never even seen the flag-raising ceremony.

"Hehe, with me, the local expert, here, I'll take you sightseeing next time you come to Beijing. It's a pity you can only stay for half a day this time, not enough time," Tian Tian said with a smile.

As they passed through Dongcheng District, Tian Tian pointed to an alleyway by the roadside. "Look, go into that alley and you'll find my house. Want to go in and familiarize yourself with the place?"

Wang Feiyang quickly shook his head, "No, thank you. My aunt and uncle should be home right now. I didn't prepare any gifts, and it would be too impolite to go empty-handed."

"Why bring a gift? There's no need to be so formal among friends," Tian Tian said casually, but she didn't insist and continued driving along the street.

She was afraid that if she brought Wang Feiyang home, her mother would be "overly enthusiastic" and interrogate him like an interrogator, which would scare Wang Feiyang away...

So let's just let it go this time, and talk about it again when we're all more familiar with each other.

…………

Although they only spent a morning together, their relationship progressed rapidly, and they were already like old friends. It could be said that they were quite compatible and could chat together.

At noon, Wang Feiyang ate an authentic roast duck at a roast duck restaurant in an alley. The freshly roasted duck was very fragrant, and he ate it with great relish, his mouth full of oil.

After the meal, Tian Tian drove Wang Feiyang to the West Railway Station.

Before boarding the plane, Tian Tian gave Wang Feiyang a light hug and said with a smile, "When you get back to Moscow, give me a call when you arrive at the Capital Airport. I won't be able to pick you up then, I have to work a shift, but you'll see me on the plane. I have two days off on this flight to Moscow, so you have to show me around Moscow properly."

Wang Feiyang nodded readily and said, "No problem, I'll make sure you have a great time."

Although he had only been in Moscow for a little over two months, Wang Feiyang was quite familiar with the city. After all, he had studied, lived, and worked there for seven or eight years in his previous life. Even after returning to China to develop his career, he would still go there several times a year. It wouldn't be an exaggeration to say that it was his second hometown.

…………

After waving goodbye to Tian Tian, ​​I went through security, entered the station, and boarded the express train back to Hanzhou.

Hanzhou is not far from the capital; it only takes four hours by express train. Tian Tian even had someone buy Wang Feiyang a soft seat and didn't even let him pay for the ticket, which made Wang Feiyang feel a little embarrassed.

Compared to the hard-seat carriages, the soft-seat carriages were much quieter, making them suitable for taking a nap. So, once on the train, Wang Feiyang reclined his seat back slightly and began to rest with his eyes half-closed.

When he was woken up by his phone and groggily opened his eyes, they were almost at Hanju Station.

It was Song Yi calling. Because she insisted on picking up Wang Feiyang at the train station, Wang Feiyang had told her in advance which express train he was taking.

As the train arrived at the station, Wang Feiyang had just reached the exit when he saw Song Yi standing not far away, waving at him.

Ignoring the stares of those around her, Song Yi ran up to Wang Feiyang and threw herself into his arms, clinging to him tightly.

Wang Feiyang patted her back gently and said with a smile, "It's only been a little over two months, don't act like we haven't seen each other for years, haha."

A little embarrassed, Song Yi let go of Wang Feiyang's hand, pulled him out of the train station, hailed a taxi at the taxi stand, and headed straight for the University of International Business and Economics.

Although Wang Feiyang could easily afford a better hotel given his current financial situation, he still asked Song Yi to book a room for him at the University of International Business and Economics guesthouse where he used to stay.

I've gotten used to living here, and it's convenient for me to meet with Song Yi.

The guesthouse was still as quiet as before, with few guests. The young lady at the front desk clearly remembered Wang Feiyang and chatted with him warmly for a few minutes.

While outside, Song Yi maintained her composure, but once inside the room, she became incredibly enthusiastic, her face flushed as she said to Wang Feiyang, "Um... today is okay..."

She clearly remembered what happened last time, when she couldn't have sex because of her period. This time, she'll finally get her wish!

Wang Feiyang certainly wouldn't back down. He had been living like an ascetic for more than two months after arriving in Moscow, and he was already feeling incredibly stifled...

…………

After what seemed like an eternity of darkness, when Wang Feiyang finally drew back the curtains, brilliant sunlight streamed in through the window, so bright he could barely open his eyes. It must have been around noon.

Song Yi was still lying in bed groaning and didn't want to get up, probably because she was exhausted from physical exertion.

Wang Feiyang turned to look at her and smiled, "If you can't sleep a little longer, then go ahead. But I have to get up now; I have an appointment to meet someone this afternoon. Do you want me to buy you some food and bring it back?"

"No need, I'll get up after lying down for a while. You go and do your business, just leave the room key with me," Song Yi said lazily.
