Quick Transmigration: Pangu is Actually My Brother

Chapter 199 A World of Cultural Discontinuity (21)

Hearing the crying coming from the other end of the phone, Wangyou was stunned for a long time. Then, she moved her fingertips slightly and realized that the person was not dead.

"Oh, I understand." Then, Wangyou hung up the phone.

Now that we know the person isn't dead, things are much easier. Wangyou walked up to the assistant director and said, "Uncle He, you'll be in charge from now on. I have some family matters to attend to and will be leaving for a while."

"What happened? You don't look well."

"It's alright, you guys go ahead with your work!" Wangyou finished explaining the remaining matters and then turned and left.

On the way, Wangyou kept thinking that her brother would never lie to her, but what kind of task required a tech person to complete, and yet he directly reported his death?

Her phone kept ringing—from her brother, her parents, and Zheng Nanyu. Wangyou didn't answer any of them. After finding their IP addresses, she bought a plane ticket and flew there.

"Sister!" Lin Duoduo's eyes were red, clearly very sad, which meant that Lin Duoduo didn't know about this.

At the funeral, Wangyou remained silent, watching the small urn of ashes being buried in the martyrs' cemetery, and watching Zheng Nantian's mother faint from crying time and time again. Wangyou watched all of this as if she were an outsider.

After the funeral, Wangyou went straight to their leader and said, "I know Zheng Nantian is not dead. What kind of difficult task do you need him to complete? He is a technician, not a front-line combatant. What kind of task do you need him to complete?"

“Child, I know you can’t accept this, but Nantian really sacrificed himself. Please accept my condolences!” No matter how Wangyou asked, they insisted that Zheng Nantian was dead.

Knowing she wouldn't get any information, Wangyou left. It wasn't related to criminals anyway; she could just spend more time figuring it out.

In modern society, the power of forgetting worries is rarely used. For example, cursing a country to disappear is unlikely to work, but it doesn't mean you can't curse criminals!

Wangyou paused for a moment, then began to make a sincere wish: that Zheng Nantian would be safe and sound, and that all criminals involved in Zheng Nantian's mission would suffer a terrible death.

"Little sister, if you're sad, just cry!" Lin Duoduo said worriedly when she saw that Wangyou hadn't shown any expression.

"The person isn't dead, why am I crying? I'm leaving, I'm busy!" Wangyou took a plane back to the filming location to continue filming.

However, Wangyou didn't just do nothing but act. She found a recording studio, sang ten sad love songs, and then released an album.

Has Director Lin broken up with his girlfriend? These ten sad love songs almost made me cry!

[I must say, this song is really beautiful, and also really sad, especially the last one, "Forget Love, Forget You, Forget the Beginning," which perfectly describes my own situation!]

[There's also a third song, "Don't touch flowers or grass, don't touch love," which definitely indicates heartbreak. Director Lin has always had a mysterious boyfriend, so has this been a breakup?]

[It's just a man. The next one will be even more obedient. Don't be sad, Director Lin.]

Regardless of what kind of love songs they were, it didn't stop these ten songs from being hailed as legendary again, and they made a fortune from them. Several different wooden carvings of figures appeared on Wangyou's table.

The actors in the crew naturally listened to these songs as well, and as a result, they all became as dedicated as model workers. The set was always full of work, and those who used to slack off no longer did. When they were working, they wished they had another pair of eyes, for fear that Wangyou would catch them and they would be done for.

Wangyou wasn't really sad, but seeing how well-behaved everyone on set was, the filming efficiency had doubled, so she thought, "Okay, that's good."

Zheng Nantian, who was struggling to move things on the other side of the ocean, naturally saw the song Wangyou released. However, he couldn't go back for the time being. But the news of his death should have been released in China by now. Thinking of this, Zheng Nantian couldn't help but touch the scar on his face, hoping that Wangyou was doing well and would forget about him soon!

A year later, Zheng Nantian discovered that members of this organization were dying mysteriously one after another. At first, it was only a small number. Because so many people died, there was no one at the top to promote him. Then, wherever he went, a group of people died. In less than a year, he became the boss.

Zheng Nantian had prepared for a long-term operation, but within a year he had made contact with the core of the organization and obtained their criminal information. Therefore, he handed over the evidence to his superiors immediately. After six months of international joint operations, Zheng Nantian returned to China.

"Nantian, you've worked hard!"

"Elder, I didn't have to work too hard. This mission was much simpler than I expected." Zheng Nantian thought about the adventures he had along the way and realized that it really wasn't hard work.

"The motherland and the people will not let you down, but your girlfriend is a problem!" This was the leader who had been cornered by Wangyou and questioned for a long time.

Zheng Nantian couldn't help but touch the scar on his face. Wangyou was a top-notch looks-obsessed girl, and she probably wouldn't recognize him now, since they hadn't seen each other for almost five years.

"Why don't you get rid of that scar on your face? Your girlfriend is a sucker for good looks."

"Elder, I'll go home first, then I'll go see her."

Zheng Nantian went to find Wangyou with mixed feelings of excitement and guilt. He originally planned to wait for her downstairs at her company, but after thinking about it, he bought a gift and went to wait for her at her door instead.

He hadn't forgotten the password, but after five years, he didn't know if it had changed. Even if it hadn't, he didn't dare go in.

This is probably what it means to feel apprehensive as you approach your hometown.

Zheng Nantian waited from five o'clock to eight o'clock. The corridor was quiet, and the floor was almost worn smooth by his presence.

His mood also became depressed. He opened their chat interface, and the last message he received was from Wangyou asking him to take a picture soon and where he was. After that, there was no more conversation.

Zheng Nantian didn't dare send a message because he knew that Wangyou had deleted him two years ago, and he didn't dare call either because he had been blocked.

At eleven o'clock, footsteps finally came from the corridor. When Wangyou saw Zheng Nantian at her door, she was not surprised at all!

"Come in!"

"Hey!" Zheng Nantian hurriedly hugged the flowers and gifts and followed Wangyou into the house.

"What do you need me for?" Wangyou asked indifferently, but she did pour herself a glass of water, which she drank herself.

"Wife, I'm back!" Zheng Nantian said pitifully.

"Who are you calling 'wife'? I'm single, unmarried, and have no boyfriend!" Wangyou spat out, her tone fierce.

"I was wrong. The mission was urgent at the time, and I didn't have time to tell you, nor could I tell you," Zheng Nantian said anxiously.

"You came here just to talk about this?"

"Correct!"

"I know, the door's over there. Goodbye!"

"No!" Zheng Nantian hurriedly said again, "These are the flowers I bought for you, your favorite red spider lilies. And this is a gift I bought for you, a bracelet that I designed myself five years ago, but I haven't had time to pick it up yet."

Is there any point in accepting an expired gift?
