Transmigrated into the body of a villain, I became my sister's savior.

The dishes were all served.

The group took their seats.

Wang Yong wiped the sweat from his brow and casually asked, "Hey, why are you alone? Where's your sister-in-law?"

Lin Jianshen said, "She..."

He thought he could say it calmly, but his voice choked up as soon as he uttered the first word.

Perhaps he is far more fragile than he imagines.

Wang Yong quickly apologized, "Oh, I'm sorry, I spoke too quickly."

He then noticed that Lin Jianshen seemed to be ill; his face was pale and he looked listless.

And he often gets distracted.

I was just serving a dish and I stood there dumbfounded for ages.

It's drizzling outside.

In no time, both people and vegetables were soaked.

Lin Jianshen was speechless for a moment. He tried very hard, but still could not control his emotions.

Encouraged by Lao Li, Niu Niu came over and handed him the doll in her hand: "Brother, I'm giving Lele to you."

"When you're unhappy, let Lele keep you company."

Lin Jianshen took the doll, took a deep breath, and after a while, he was finally able to speak in complete sentences.

"She was taken back to the capital by her father."

Anyone could tell that there must be a very long story inside.

Wang Yong thought for a moment, then said in a casual tone, "Hey, what's the big deal? Go find her."

Lin Jianshen nodded: "I will go."

"Our situation is rather complicated; I need to take care of what I'm doing first."

Old Li said, "Brother Yong, let's not talk about Xiao Lin's sad past. Let's eat."

He glanced at Lin Jianshen and sighed inwardly.

He knew the man was lovesick.

Wang Yong tried to find some light and pleasant topics to liven up the atmosphere.

It is said that when Lin Jianshen was attacked by anti-fans, his coworkers all stepped in and argued with the anti-fans.

I didn't know before that they were so talented at swearing.

Lin Jianshen tried to cooperate with him, but the atmosphere was always a bit off.

Last time we ate together, Xia Tingwan was the one chattering away, trying to liven things up.

Her departure was like the old lady in the orphanage whose pot of noodles was missing salt.

It doesn't seem wrong in any way, but it just doesn't feel right.

After finishing their meal, Lin Jianshen said goodbye to Lao Li's family.

Wang Yong was quite busy with work and drove off first.

Lin Jianshen was driving his Mercedes-Benz when he saw the crooked tree at the intersection.

He parked his car, stood under the crooked tree, and slowly squatted down, like a vendor who hadn't had any business all day.

Fragments of memory resonate throughout the long river of life.

"Why is it taking so long? Tsk. I was about to call the police because they weren't answering my phone."

Xia Tingwan breathed heavily, "I just left my phone at Uncle Li's house."

Lin Jianshen opened the small tin box of Wrigley's Spearmint and popped a mint into his mouth.

A cool sensation mixed with the scent of jasmine rushed to my head.

At the time, it was only common.

Why is it that some things must be lost to prove their value?

He took out his phone and opened the civilian version of Nanfeng Smart Brain.

Question: "What should I do if I miss her so much? I really miss her."

Nanfeng AI replied, "Go to her city and stay in a hotel for one night."

"The wind that blew across her face may also blow across yours."

"In this way, the pain of longing can be relieved."

Lin Jianshen said, "It's a good idea, but for some reasons, I can't go to her city for the time being."

Nanfeng AI replied, "Then let's go to where our memories began and walk the path we walked together again."

"Through mountains and rivers, every little thing, is where my heart desires."

Lin Jianshen put away his phone and murmured, "The place where my memories began."

That old, run-down rental house.

Fate turns the yellowed pages.

In that summer that will never return.

Lin Jianshen started the car and drove in that direction.

He parked his car on the side of the road and slowly walked over.

Standing at the alley entrance, he suddenly remembered the way Xia Tingwan sang to him while lying on top of him.

It was snowing at the time, and the roads were very slippery, so he didn't dare to walk fast.

Her warm breath blew against his ear, and his heart pounded.

Fortunately, she was wearing thick clothes in winter, so she didn't feel it.

He was just being stubborn, saying that her singing was out of place.

Lin Jianshen softly sang: "A gentle breeze blows on the southern branch, I still yearn for you in my dreams, I wait for autumn to rise and see the mountain's grandeur, then I'll visit my old friends again..."

The sound of my own voice mingled with the singing of Xia Tingwan in my imagination.

It sounds like the two of them are singing a duet.

Lin Jianshen popped another mint into his mouth.

The golden retriever downstairs is still there, and he still remembers him.

She ran over enthusiastically and rubbed her head against his leg repeatedly.

Lin Jianshen didn't forget to pay him the gate fee, stuffing a sausage into his mouth while stroking the dog's head.

The male homeowner downstairs greeted him, "Hey, big star, long time no see!"

"Come in and have a seat, have some tea."

"Now that you're famous, all the neighbors in this building will feel proud."

Lin Jianshen lowered his head, and when he raised it again, he had a smile on his face: "No need, I was just passing by and wanted to take a look at the place where I used to live."

The male homeowner said, "After you moved out, the upstairs apartment was rented out very quickly."

"It looks like a family came to work. There should still be some people here now. Go and check."

Lin Jianshen said goodbye to him and went up to the second floor.

The upside-down "福" (good fortune) character on the door was torn off, indicating that the new owner did not approve of this way of displaying the character.

China is a vast country with diverse resources, and many of its customs have reached a consensus despite differences in geographical environment.

However, some customs have different interpretations in different regions.

Lin Jianshen murmured, "I knew the character '福' (fortune) should be pasted upright."

He knocked on the door.

The door opened.

The woman was initially wary when she saw the tall, unfamiliar man.

Then I noticed he was wearing a casual suit shirt, khaki trousers, and black derby shoes.

It's obvious at a glance that it's definitely not a cheap item.

His expression softened again, and he said, "Boss, our manager isn't here. If you need any work from him, can I leave you his phone number?"

It seems this family came to Donghai to do odd jobs.

Lin Jianshen shook his head: "I used to live here. I'd like to come in and take a look, is that alright?"

The woman was somewhat disappointed, but she still opened the door and let him in: "Please feel free to look around."

Lin Jianshen's former room is now occupied by the male and female owners, who have a lot of belongings, and the room is crammed full.

Xia Tingwan's room is now occupied by a little boy, and there are many cheap plastic toys scattered on the floor.

Lin Jianshen slowly reached out his hand.

Calloused fingers touched the wall.

The wall used to be covered with roses.

Now there's nothing left, only a row of small holes left from when the fishing net was hung.

The Little Swan washing machine was still in the bathroom.

The new family uses a twin-tub washing machine that combines washer and dryer.

One drum washes underwear, and the other drum washes outerwear.

There was really no need to take this little swan with us, so we left it here.

Lin Jianshen gently patted the old man, walked out of the bathroom, and said to the hostess, "I've finished reading it, thank you."

He walked to the door, then leaned against the doorframe and turned back to say, "I wish your family harmony and happiness, and all the best."

"goodbye."

There are still two days before Director Yu arrives in Donghai.

Lin Jianshen sat in the car, unsure of what to do.

He recalled that Director Jiang had asked him for 20,000 yuan.

The days he earned money by delivering food.

At that time, he met Laifu, and a series of things happened. Xu Yan even invited him and Xia Tingwan to dinner together.

That was the first time they went out to visit someone together.

Lin Jianshen started the car and drove to the place where they had eaten.
