Chapter 423: Fate?

Zhou Xiaofeng stood next to Bai Zhi, he stretched and lowered his hand, but he doesn’t know what to do. She was not a bunch of firewood. How will he carry her on his back?

After lingering for a while, he finally succeeded in carrying Bai Zhi on his back. Bai Zhi was lighter than he imagined. When he carried her to the cabin house, Zhou Awu was coming out from the inside and saw him really carried Bai Zhi on his back. Zhou Awu laughed and said: “You are really good. You can carry her when you look so thin.”

Zhou Xiaofeng took Bai Zhi inside the house, laid her flat on the bed, and covered her with a quilt. Then, he wiped his sweat and said: “When I was in the barracks, I had to cut firewood and carried them back every day. I slowly gained some strength.”

Zhou Awu patted Zhou Xiaofeng’s shoulder: “Good job, this is how a son of our Zhou family is like.”

Zhou Xiaofeng grinned, his heart was warm, he used to think he was useless, but now it seems that he was not as useless as he thinks.

The moonlight outside the small window fell into the can house and fell on Bai Zhi’s sleepy face. When she was sleeping, she was like a different person.

Now, she was more like a 13-year-old girl, looking so charming and naive.

“Let’s go, it’s not good for two big men to stay in here.” Zhou Awu took Zhou Xiaofeng out.

Just like before, when she fell on a soft bed, she knew at once that she had returned to the modern time and her former body.

After opening her eyes, the clock on the wall showed that it was 2 o’clock in the morning.

Two in the morning, every time she returned, it was two in the morning. Why?

The ward was empty and the lights were off. Only the electronic clock on the wall and the instruments near the bed were faintly making a sound.

Today was the Mid-Autumn Festival. Lin Yang must have gone back home for Mid-Autumn Festival, right?

Bai Zhi got out of bed and walked towards the window to look outside. The street light on the forest was lit all alone. There was no one on the road.

On such a happy event, who would stay at the hospital at 2 am?

Bai Zhi looked up at the bright moon in the sky. It brought her back in the modern time on the 15th of the month again. Why?

Was it fate?

What exactly is going on? Why she constantly traveling between the two worlds? What she is supposed to do here? What is she doing here? What’s the mission she supposed to do back there?

If it’s fate, can’t they give her a hint?

When Bai Zhi lowered her head, she saw a figure hurriedly crossing the silent forest.

That figure was familiar. When the figure stepped out of the shade and walked towards the building where she was, she finally able to see his face.

It’s Lin Yang! She was too familiar with his figure, style of walking and unconscious movements.

Why was he here? Before, during Mid-Autumn Festival, he would return to his home in City B, which was thousands of miles away. He would usually stay for a day or two before returning.

Is he rushing back now because of her?

Lin Yang walked on the empty gravel road, subconsciously, he looked up at the hospital room where Bai Zhi stay. There was no light in the ward. He took a glanced expecting nothing, but he almost stumbled after looking. Was it an illusion? He felt he saw something.

Lin Yang stopped and looked up at the window of the ward again. This time, he could see clearly. In front of the wide french window, a person was standing alone. He couldn’t see what the person look like, but he could vaguely feel that it was Bai Zhi, Bai Zhi ah!

Lin Yang’s heart beat wildly, he opened his mouth to call her name, but somehow, he couldn’t make a sound.

  1. Poor BZ – this modern/ancient time to-and-froing is the most mysterious part of the novel. Thanks for the chapters!
