The true heiress of metaphysics travels back to the 1970s and recognizes her father, a high-ranking

The two arrived in town quickly. The bus station was located in the northeast of the town, just a short walk away.

Jiang Muyan gets scared whenever she sees a car, especially since there are many mountain roads here, making the ride extremely bumpy.

When they arrived at the station, the bus bound for the county town was already nearly half full.

Fu Moxuan found two empty seats side by side and considerately let Jiang Muyan sit near the window.

As soon as Jiang Muyan got into the car, she took out some dried tangerine peel, preparing to deal with motion sickness.

But she underestimated the bumpy mountain road. The car swayed and rocked as soon as it started, and her stomach churned. She forced herself to endure the discomfort and could only close her eyes and pretend to sleep, hoping to get to the county town as soon as possible.

"How are you? Would you like some water?" Fu Moxuan asked softly, reaching for his water bottle. His fingertips had just touched the bottle when he suddenly remembered that he had just drunk some water, and he paused.

Jiang Muyan slowly opened her eyes and gently shook her head: "My stomach feels uncomfortable, I don't want to drink."

She felt that sitting in the car at this moment was like being tortured.

After finally reaching the county town, as soon as the car stopped, Jiang Muyan couldn't wait to jump out, letting out a huge sigh of relief, her breathing even becoming lighter.

Seeing that the little girl's expression was not good, Fu Moxuan couldn't help but suggest:

"Let's walk back!" If they had known the little girl was so prone to motion sickness, they wouldn't have chosen to take a car on their way here.

Jiang Muyan nodded vigorously: "Mm." When they first arrived here, they got off the train in this county town. It would only take two hours to walk back to Wanshan Brigade from here. Compared to the torment of motion sickness, she preferred to walk a little further.

Fu Moxuan looked around and then said to Jiang Muyan:

"Wait here for me for a bit, don't wander off!"

Hearing this, Jiang Muyan secretly found it amusing; Fu Moxuan was treating her like a child. Nevertheless, she obediently nodded in agreement, "Okay."

After Fu Moxuan left, Jiang Muyan took a while to calm down before slowly taking in the small county town built in 1975.

The bus station is located on the edge of the county town. Looking along the main street, there are mostly single-story houses with blue bricks and gray tiles on both sides, with a few two-story red brick buildings interspersed among them, which stand out in the crowd of low houses.

There were quite a few pedestrians on the street, mostly dressed in coarse cloth clothes in gray, blue, and black, exuding a strong sense of the times.

As she looked around, she took out her water bottle. Just as she was about to take a sip of water, she caught a glimpse of a purple aura approaching her from afar.

Fu Moxuan is back so soon? As he approached, Jiang Muyan noticed that he was carrying some fruit.

"Eat some fruit, it might make you feel better," Fu Moxuan said, handing over an apple. He had originally wanted to buy oranges, but there weren't any available at this time of year, and even the apple was still a bit unripe.

Jiang Muyan was taken aback. Did Fu Moxuan go out of his way to buy fruit just for her?

He felt a warmth in his heart, never expecting this seemingly aloof man to be so considerate.

Without any formalities, she reached out and took the apple, softly saying, "Thank you."

She took a small bite of the apple, the sweet and slightly sour taste easing her discomfort a little. When she looked up, she met Fu Moxuan's gaze, and in his eyes, there was a tenderness that she couldn't understand...

"Could I have misread it?" Jiang Muyan shook her head inwardly, then changed the subject with a smile:

"Where are we going now?"

Fu Moxuan pondered for a moment:

"Let's go find a guesthouse near the hospital to stay in!"

Jiang Muyan glanced at the sky; it was already getting dark. She nodded and said, "Okay!"

"Let's go!" Fu Moxuan said, letting her continue eating the apple, and naturally took her handbag and water bottle.

While buying fruit, he had already asked about the hospital's location. Following the directions, the two quickly found the only hospital in the county.

Coincidentally, there was a guesthouse right across from the hospital, and a state-run restaurant next door, which was quite convenient.

As soon as they stepped into the guesthouse, a middle-aged woman's voice came from inside: "Are you two looking for a place to stay?"

The speaker was the guesthouse manager. Seeing that Fu Moxuan and Jiang Muyan were a handsome couple, her eyes lit up, and she jokingly teased them:

"You two look so well-matched, are you a couple? Then let's just get one room."

Fu Moxuan was taken aback by these words, and a strange feeling inexplicably arose in his heart, making him forget to speak for a moment.

Jiang Muyan quickly explained, "Auntie, you've misunderstood. We're just friends, we need two rooms." As she spoke, she reached for the letter of introduction, only to remember that her handbag was still in Fu Moxuan's hand.

She retrieved her handbag from Fu Moxuan and was rummaging through the letter of introduction when the administrator covered his mouth and laughed again.

"If you're not married yet, it'll probably be soon. Your partner is so considerate, even carrying your bag for you."

Mu Yan's cheeks flushed slightly. She wanted to explain further, but Fu Moxuan had already handed over the letter of introduction.

"This is our letter of introduction." He then winked at Jiang Muyan, signaling her to also take out her letter of introduction.

Jiang Muyan had no choice but to give up her explanation and silently handed over the letter of introduction, a hint of shame rising in her heart.

Seeing that neither of them refuted his guess, the administrator became even more certain of his suspicions, his smile widening as he looked down and flipped through the register:

"There are two adjacent rooms left. They're on the left-hand side of the second floor, just turn left." With that, he quickly started the registration process.

After completing the formalities, Fu Moxuan took the two keys and handed one to Jiang Muyan:

"Let's put our things in the room first, and then go to the state-run restaurant next door for a meal?" He turned to look at her, a smile still lingering in his eyes.

Jiang Muyan caught a glimpse of the smile in his eyes, and remembering the administrator's teasing, her face flushed slightly. She pretended not to care and gave a casual "hmm," then took the lead and headed towards the stairs.

Pshaw, she's from the new century, would she be shy about this? That's impossible!

Fu Moxuan watched Jiang Muyan's slightly hurried back, a slight smile playing on his lips, his eyes revealing a hint of doting affection.

As I turned around, I heard the administrator's voice: "This young couple is such a perfect match."

The two rooms were indeed very close to each other. Jiang Muyan pushed open the door and went in. The room was simply furnished with a wooden bed, a table, two chairs, and a cabinet with peeling paint in the corner.

Jiang Muyan put her handbag on the table and picked up the kettle, trying to calm her pounding heart, when she heard a knock on the door.

When the door opened, Fu Moxuan stood there, carrying the fruit in his hands:

"Here's the fruit, come on, let's go eat!"

Without waiting for Jiang Muyan to refuse, he went straight into the house, put the fruit on the table, and then walked out the door, waiting for Jiang Muyan to follow.

Jiang Muyan had no choice but to pick up her water bottle:

"Alright, let's go!" With that, she locked the room door and walked downstairs with Fu Moxuan.
