...

Inside the sunroom on the fourth floor of the bus.

The sunroom has a row of rectangular planting troughs arranged along both sides of the wall.

The tank was pre-filled with dark brown base potting soil provided by the system.

The top of the trough is equipped with full-spectrum sunlight lamps and a watering system.

However, this sunlight lamp is swaying back and forth.

The sunroom also has a constant temperature system.

Yun Qianqian and Wang Wushuang were planting seeds in the soil together.

The bus seemed to have driven on a rather bumpy road, and the bus was slightly jolted, but it's much better now.

After Wang Wushuang finished planting the last seed, he looked up and noticed that his senior sister Qianqian was inexplicably blushing...

She paused, then asked in confusion:

"Senior Sister Qianqian... the path seemed a bit more difficult to walk on. Did we enter a dungeon? Are we really not going down to the first floor?"

"Huh? Senior Sister Qianqian, why is your face so red? Do you have a fever?"

As he spoke, Wang Wushuang wiped his right hand, which had been used to plant the seeds, on his clothes before timidly raising his hand and pressing the back of his hand against Yun Qianqian's forehead:

"Huh? She doesn't seem hot, she shouldn't have a fever... But Senior Sister Qianqian, you..."

After planting the last seed, Yun Qianqian patted the soil off her hands and sat down on the ground.

She gently tucked the stray black hair behind her ear.

Yun Qianqian patted the empty seat next to her and smiled gently at Wang Wushuang:

"Wushuang, don't worry, come! Come sit with your sister, I have something to tell you."

"You're new here, so you might not be aware of Jiang Chen's talent. As his older sister, I feel it's necessary to tell you..."

"Because... since Jiang Chen can replicate your talent, it means you like him a lot too..."

The word "也" is the key!

As soon as Wang Wushuang sat down, upon hearing Yun Qianqian's words, she immediately blushed and hurriedly buried her face in her knees.

But she didn't refute it; she was just shy and flustered.

Do you like Brother Chen?

Ah!

I like it!

I want to stay by Brother Chen's side forever.

But... I don't expect too much, after all, Brother Chen has many senior sisters around him.

They are not only beautiful, but also kind people.

I... I'll just watch Brother Chen from afar...

Looking at the shy Wang Wushuang, Yun Qianqian smiled and leaned close to Wang Wushuang's ear to whisper about Jiang Chen's talent.

Upon hearing this, Wang Wushuang was first shocked that Brother Chen's talent was actually SSS level.

They were also shocked that Brother Chen had so many S-level talents.

What's even more shocking is that Brother Chen's attributes are too high!

Her face immediately flushed red, because she finally understood why Brother Chen was so strong...

It turns out I've already met with my senior sisters...

The bus was shaking just now, that was Brother Chen and his senior sister...!

Is Brother Chen really that amazing?

So... what exactly does that feel like?

If it's with Brother Chen...why am I kind of looking forward to it?!

Yun Qianqian noticed the strands of hair that had fallen across Wang Wushuang's face due to his work.

She stood up, knelt behind Wang Wushuang, reached out and untied the hair ribbon that had tied Wang Wushuang's high ponytail, intending to re-tie Wang Wushuang's hair into a high ponytail.

This time, Yun Qianqian tied her hair more carefully and attentively.

Wang Wushuang obediently buried her face in her knees and remained silent.

For some reason, she felt very at ease when her senior sister Qianqian styled her hair.

The scent of gardenias, especially, could calm her restless heart.

From childhood to adulthood, few people have treated her with such gentleness.

Yun Qianqian gently smoothed Wang Wushuang's hair as she spoke softly:

"Wushuang, sometimes you need to be more confident, hold your head high. You're no less capable than anyone else!"

Yun Qianqian looked at Wang Wushuang's high ponytail, nodded in satisfaction, and smiled happily.

"Look! How energetic! Our Wushuang is naturally very good-looking."

Wang Wushuang said sullenly:

"Thank you, senior sister..."

Yun Qianqian sat back down next to Wang Wushuang and gently rubbed the top of his head:

Do you remember what Jiang Chen told you?

"You must stand tall and live with pride."

As Yun Qianqian spoke, the smile on her face disappeared, leaving only a faint sadness.

She took out a neatly folded, bloodstained piece of paper and gently handed it to Wang Wushuang:

"I just went downstairs to get this note."

She silently added in her mind, "And while I'm at it, I'll sneak up to the third floor and eavesdrop."

"That sentence from Jiang Chen's younger brother was also something Teacher Fang asked us to pass on to you..."

"Wushuang, take a look..."

Upon hearing the words "Teacher Fang," Wang Wushuang jerked his head up, his pupils contracting.

She stared blankly at the bloodstained note in Yun Qianqian's hand.

Wang Wushuang slowly took the bloodstained note, unfolded it with trembling hands, and slowed her breathing.

She already guessed what it was.

The note was well protected and neatly folded.

The blood-written words on the note were still clear, but the blood had oxidized from bright red to dark red and gradually turned brownish-red, just like the deceased's body gradually corroding into bones.

The areas soaked with tears also developed white crystals, giving them a sandpaper-like feel.

[Wang Wushuang, Chen Lanhuo, Zhao Jiannu...]

They are all good girls. If you encounter them, please pass on a message for me.

Always hold your head high and live with pride.

After seeing the words on the note, Wang Wushuang remained calm for some reason.

Her hand gripping the note trembled, and she swallowed hard.

"Senior...Senior Sister...Teacher Fang...has she already...?"

Yun Qianqian reached out and put her arm around Wang Wushuang's thin shoulder, sighed softly, and tried to recount Teacher Fang's ordeal in a calm manner, deliberately concealing the bloody and cruel details.

Wang Wushuang naturally knew that Senior Sister Qianqian had simplified it.

She knew all too well what a woman would encounter in a car full of filthy men...

Wang Wu's eyes were red and swollen as he stared intently at the note in his hand.

After taking several deep breaths, she choked back tears and spoke incoherently:

"Senior sister, did you know? Teacher Fang's...her original name was...Fang Laidi, yes, Fang Laidi! It's that straightforward!"

"She used to have a harder life than us students who received her sponsorship..."

"She...she wanted to hold an umbrella for us because she had gotten wet in the rain herself..."

Wang Wushuang blinked repeatedly, her eyes red and swollen, trying to hold back her tears.

But a tear or two still rolled down her cheek and landed on the note.

She hurriedly wiped away her tears with the corner of her clothes.

After confirming that the note hadn't been soaked, Wang Wushuang leaned against Yun Qianqian's chest, enduring the soreness in her throat.

"But senior sister...why? Why do good people always end up badly!"

"Teacher Fang is gone, and Aunt Liu Lan is gone too..."

"What's wrong with this world...?"

Yun Qianqian gently patted Wang Wushuang's shoulder.

She didn't know how to comfort Wang Wushuang, so she could only keep patting him.

She had already prepared words of comfort, but upon hearing that Ms. Fang Ting's original name was Fang Laidi, she fell silent...

Just then, the sound of footsteps, "tap tap tap," came from the stairs.

Jiang Chen, who had already finished ordering, came up.

He wanted to see how the seeds were being planted.

Upon seeing Brother Chen, Wang Wushuang abruptly stood up and threw herself into Jiang Chen's arms, tears streaming down her face as she cried out:

"Chen...Brother Chen! Teacher Fang, she..."

Jiang Chen reached out and firmly embraced Wang Wushuang.

He gently patted Wang Wushuang's back while looking up at Yun Qianqian, who was slowly standing up.

Yun Qianqian nodded to Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen understood. He looked down at Wang Wushuang in his arms and gently comforted her:

"Teacher Fang threw out the note at the very end because she wanted all of you students she had helped to stand tall and live a good life."

Wang Wushuang raised her head, her eyes blurry with tears, and looked up at Jiang Chen. Her lips moved, but tears fell again, and her voice was hoarse:

"But I... I didn't even get to see her one last time..."

"I received her financial support, but I did nothing in return for her..."

Jiang Chen gently wiped away Wang Wushuang's tears with his fingertips, then lightly brushed her pink nose:

"Now that you've changed your name, you can be Wang Wushuang openly and honestly, which is exactly what she wants to see."

"Her efforts were not in vain, and you did not let her down."

"That's enough..."

"Stand tall and live well!"

Wang Wushuang was stunned when she heard this.

After several seconds, she forcefully wiped her eyes with her sleeve, took a few deep breaths, and forced a smile.

"Okay... I understand..."

"Brother Chen... thank you..."

As she spoke, she buried her head in Jiang Chen's chest again, her left hand clenched into a fist, and her right hand gently holding Teacher Fang's blood-written letter.

"Tap tap tap," hurried footsteps echoed at the top of the stairs.

Lu Wanzhou ran up quickly.

She was stunned when she saw Jiang Chen embracing Wang Wushuang.

There was no time to be jealous, she said anxiously:

"Xiao Chen! The parallel highway is here!"
