An imperceptible secret compartment.

The secret compartment was very small and well-hidden. If Gu An’an wasn’t familiar with these tricks, it would have been difficult for her to discover it.

When she opened the secret compartment, an unopened letter instantly came into view.

A glint appeared in Gu An’an’s eyes. Then, she took out the letter from the secret compartment and opened it.

The letter had a total of two pages and they were all filled with words, but the handwriting was neat and elegant.

On the first page, Jiang Xiuyue was mainly expressing her motherly love for her daughter. She hoped that the previous owner would live well and get married when she grew up, leading a happy and fulfilling life thereafter…

Gu An’an’s hands paused for a moment before she continued reading.

However, when she finished reading the contents of the second page of the letter, she was shocked.

Oh gosh!

Is this letter some kind of a joke?

It turned out that the Jiang family’s background was not as simple as it seemed. There was more to it. When they emigrated from China, they left Jiang Xiuyue an astonishing amount of money and treasures. It was truly a staggering amount…

After a long pause—

Gu An’an finally digested the contents of the letter.

To be honest, although she had a lot of supplies in the Star Destiny Space, including gold, silver, jewelry, antiques, calligraphy, and paintings, she was still surprised by the Jiang family’s background.

However, on second thoughts, no matter how powerful her family background was, no matter how much wealth and treasures they had, it seemed to be unrelated to that silly girl…

At the thought of this, Gu An’an couldn’t help but let out a long sigh. She could only hope that the girl would be reincarnated into a good family in her next life.

She put the letter and money away and fell asleep within the next second.

…

The next day, because of Jiao Yu’s watch and the roosters crowing in the village, the two girls woke up very early.

The two of them quickly washed up, picked up their things, and rushed towards the village entrance.

It was early September and the weather had not turned cold yet. Moreover, daylight starts earlier in the Sichuan Province, therefore, the sky was already starting to brighten. White smoke was already rising from the chimneys in the village.

By the time Gu An’an, Jiao Yu, and a few other veterans arrived at the village entrance, there were already five or six people sitting on the ox cart. At a glance, other than those leaning against the front of the cart, the rest were all women.

Coincidentally, the person in charge of driving the cart, who was now leaning against the front of the cart, was Zhao Mingyu, the same person who had picked them up from the train station the day before.

Suddenly, the man turned around and looked in her direction without any warning. Gu An’an paused momentarily before she regained her composure and resumed walking.

“Those who are going to town, hurry up and get in the car.”

With that, Zhao Mingyu spat out the stalk of grass in his mouth. His carefree actions gave off a rebellious vibe.

Gu An’an’s lips twitched imperceptibly.

When the six of them got on the back of the ox cart, it was already full.

Gu An’an took a quick glance and a glint flashed across her eyes. “Wen Taohua and Huang Dahai were not here yet?”

“The village chief had already explained everything clearly yesterday. How could the two of them forget about it?”

After Zhao Mingyu sat down in front of the ox cart, he blurted out, “Everyone, sit tight. We’re setting off now!”

“!!!” The corners of his mouth froze for a second. Once again, he felt that there must be something wrong with his brain.

The same thing happened while he was sleeping the night before.

From childhood until the age of twenty, he had never had a single dream. But strangely, after going to pick up the educated youths and delivering rations to the dormitory yesterday, he had a dream.

It was normal for any person to have occasional dreams, but the strange thing was that he hadn’t had a single dream for the past twenty years. All of a sudden, he started to have really weird dreams.

And those dreams were the kind that…

“… Ptui, ptui, ptui! I have to stop thinking about it.”

As he thought about it, the scene began to play in his mind again.

Especially when he thought of her slender waist and that woman’s fragrance, it made him…

In an instant, his earlobes started turning red and hot, while his body temperature rose rapidly. Even his back felt very tense.

Zhao Mingyu’s body remained stiff throughout the journey until they reached the town. Only then did the burning desires in his heart gradually subside.

“Gather here at eleven o’clock sharp. Remember this. If anyone misses the timing, they will have to walk back on their own.”

Just as everyone was getting out of the car, Zhao Mingyu’s cold reminder sounded in their ears.

The women responded in unison and left with their respective baskets.

Gu An’an and the other educated youths walked together as a group. However, before leaving, she glanced at Zhao Mingyu’s back and frowned slightly. She didn’t know if it was her imagination, but she felt that this person seemed to be behaving strangely this morning.

But she was unable to pinpoint what was odd about him.

Zhao Mingyu’s gaze followed the petite figure in front of him, staring at her without blinking. When she was completely out of sight, his deep-set eyes narrowed involuntarily.

He tapped his cheek with the tip of his tongue, and an indecipherable look appeared in his eyes.

As he carefully recalled, it seemed that ever since he first laid eyes on her at the train station yesterday, all the subsequent events that occurred were somehow connected to her.

At first, he did not think too much about it and only felt that something was amiss. All of a sudden, he started to have an inexplicable and strange feeling.

Especially when he made eye contact with her big and clear eyes, his heart would beat wildly.

What was wrong with him?

Suddenly, he felt as if his heart had been gently tickled by a feather, but it was also stirring up a different set of emotions.

The corners of his lips subconsciously curled up into an intriguing smile.

Zhao Mingyu hid the emotions in his eyes and jumped off the ox cart. After tying the cow to a tree trunk, he headed for the black market in a good mood.

Being in such a good mood, he had completely forgotten about Wen Taohua and Huang Dahai.

In town, Gu An’an and the others had already started their shopping spree. As time was limited, everyone decided to split up and gather at the ox cart after their shopping.

After separating from Jiao Yu and the others, Gu An’an quickly found a hidden spot and flashed into the space. She packed some food and clothes that were appropriate for this era.

Looking at the vast amount of clothes kept in the storeroom, she couldn’t help but sigh at how lucky she was.

These clothes from different eras were accumulated by the previous owners of the space. There were lots of clothes in various styles. Even if she were to wear them for a few lifetimes, she would not be able to go through every single piece.

There were countless supplies and resources stored here in the space as well.

Moreover, the accumulated savings of several generations of the Gu family was all kept here, including numerous treasures she recently plundered from the Meng Luo Kingdom’s treasury. At that time, she didn’t leave even a single cent for that lousy emperor…
