After embracing, Bai Languo seriously asked, “Were you always this handsome?”
“Yes, my appearance is very similar to my previous one!”
“Same here! The only difference is that I was younger then!”
(A verse from Chairman Mao)
They both happened to coincidentally recite a poem from Chairman Mao, called Qinyuanchun: Changsha. Upon doing so, they realized that they had both indeed came here via time travel, since it was impossible that people of ancient China would know the great Chairman Mao’s poetry!
Then, Chu Qingfeng and Bai Languo went to the garden, hand in hand. They sat in its pavilion. He warmly pa.s.sed her a cup of tea and said, “No cappuccino, no Häagen-Dazs, we can only have tea now!”
“Doesn’t matter,” Bai Languo said as she took the teacup, “it is enough to have a cup of tea!”
“Until I met you, I’d never come across anyone else who came here through time travel. I had always thought I was alone . . . but now, I have a good partner!” Chu Qingfeng said excitedly. Obviously, despite being a very rich man, he was unhappy. Spiritually, he felt quite lonely!
Bai Languo lightly touched his head and gently pinched his cheek. She sighed internally. How bad my life used to be! Why haven’t I met this handsome guy before, even though we live in the same city? As for appearance, Puyang Yue looked more handsome than him, but he had a good pair of legs. Depending on this, he could be considered more attractive to girls. “Well, how did you come here?” she asked.
“Do you remember the rare total solar eclipse that happened that day?”
“Of course, I do! I was climbing at the time. I had the intention of taking the best photos for the eclipse. However, it was thoroughly dark before I reached the peak. While I was taking out my flashlight from my pocket, I felt someone push me. Then, I fell down the cliff and ended up here!”
“Someone pushed me, too!” Chu Qingfeng said in confirmation. “I was an acrobat before. I was performing my tightrope walking act when the total solar eclipse happened. At that moment, I felt someone attack me in the dark. Then, I fell from the tightrope and landed unconscious. When I woke up, I found I was lying in the bed of Chu Sanshao.”
“Why are you so sure we were pushed?”
“Because it’s not a miracle. Someone must have done it deliberately.”
“Huh?” Bai Languo was very astonished. She asked, “Who? The Chinese Academy of Sciences? Hollywood?”
After hearing that, Chu Qingfeng angrily glanced at her. He thought she must have seen too many American movies or science fiction films. He answered, shaking his head, “It was Shen Yuxian who pushed us.”
“Who is Shen Yuxian?”
“Actually, I don’t know who he is. I suppose he must be a celestial being.”
“Is he a person?”
“Do you think I am talking about two celestial beings? I asked him who he is. He told me he is Shen Yuxian. I absolutely believe that he is a celestial being! Because he appeared in the form of a white fog. I vaguely saw him in that fog. It was a face of old man. It was very clear that he’s not a good person. . .”
