Courtyard House: A System Connecting Two Worlds, Resources for the Nation

"We know you traveled from sixty years in the future."

With just one sentence, Bai Ling left Zhou Feng frozen in place, unable to react for a long time.

"What...what did you say? What...what do you mean?"

"It means exactly what it says. I, Minister He, Director Sun, and most of the frontline personnel in the Special Operations Division know your identity."

Like a bolt from the blue, Zhou Feng's eyes widened, and his hand trembled as he pointed at Bai Ling: "You mean, your Special Operations Division has always known that I traveled from sixty years in the future?"

"Of course, you didn't even try to hide it. Our comrades thought you were an enemy agent, so they came to secretly search your room. As a result, your ID card, food, and daily necessities all had information about the future."

"ID card…"

Zhou Feng remembered that he brought his wallet with him when he first traveled through time. Later, because he traveled back and forth between the two worlds, he stored such things that could prove his identity in the new apartment he bought in this world.

So, he was targeted by Bai Ling and the others from the very first time he traveled through time?

"Heh... I was still pretending to be an American of Chinese descent. So you all knew my identity all along. No wonder you were so cooperative with me."

Listening to Zhou Feng's mutterings, Bai Ling couldn't help but roll her eyes at him: "What do you think? The war on the peninsula only ended a little over a decade ago. You don't think the organization will believe you just because you say you're an overseas Chinese!"

"Besides, look at all these things you've brought out. None of them could be produced in America, and you even bothered to add Chinese characters to them. We just don't have diplomatic relations with America, we're not completely isolated from them. We even have revolutionary comrades infiltrating America, you know!"

"Also, many of your daily necessities have product information and production dates on them, which our comrades helped you process. Plus, you always manage to take away mountains of mineral resources in a flash, we..."

"Alright! Stop talking!"

As Bai Ling described the flaws in her methods, Zhou Feng felt his Dao heart was about to shatter.

He genuinely thought he had concealed the truth quite well from the very beginning!

So many people in the Siheyuan world already knew his identity, and everyone was tacitly teasing him!

"So, all the things we went through before, and the Special Operations Unit always showed up immediately, was it because they knew my identity?"

"yes!"

"My request was accepted so readily, and I received support from above, is it also because of my position?"

"yes!"

"Every time someone from the courtyard provokes me and gets dragged back to the Special Operations Unit, is it because you know who I am?"

"yes!"

Silence fell in the room once again.

Zhou Feng was also aware that given the impact he could have on this era as a person from the future, it was only natural that the organization valued him highly.

But I still felt a little uneasy.

"Besides you and the Special Operations Unit, who else knows my identity? Does Brother Li know?"

"You mean Li Huaide? He doesn't know. Only the top leaders and frontline personnel in the Special Operations Division know your identity. As for the others... only Hao Pingchuan is left, but he's already been transferred to the frontier."

When her old friend was mentioned, Bai Ling's face showed a somewhat complicated expression.

After so many years of being gay, I don't know if we'll ever see each other again in this lifetime.

As for Li Huaide, although he must have received instructions from his superiors, it's best not to tell Zhou Feng at this time, and leave him some hope.

Sure enough, Zhou Feng breathed a sigh of relief; at least there was still one Brother Li who didn't know his identity.

If even Li Huaide only became his sworn brother because he knew his identity as a person from the future, then his management of this courtyard world must have been a complete failure!

Bai Ling, who was sitting in front of him at this moment, was naturally not included in this category.

Even if the other party already knew his identity, and is now married to him, and has told him everything in detail, which can be described as being completely open and honest, then what is there to doubt?

Noticing that Zhou Feng's expression had calmed down, Bai Ling pursed her lips and looked at him with slight trepidation: "Now that you know everything about you in this world, is there anything you want to say or do?"

"What can I do? I guess I'll just have to maintain the status quo!"

Zhou Feng sighed helplessly. What could he do even if he knew the situation?

Could he possibly confront the other party directly?

Putting aside whether he can achieve the outcome he wants through confrontation, the only people he can currently contact who know his identity are Bai Ling, Sun Yue, and Minister He.

The latter two wouldn't leak information to him, and Bai Ling had only been married to him for a few days when he went to confront the organization. Wouldn't that be betraying Bai Ling?

For the sake of his wife, he had to maintain the status quo and turn a blind eye!

Bai Ling instantly understood Zhou Feng's meaning. With a flicker of her eyes, she quietly grasped his hand under the table.

The fact that Zhou Feng still cared about her situation under these circumstances proves that his confession was worthwhile!

"Wait! Brother Zhou Feng, you're saying that in sixty years, how old will we be?"

While the two were still staring at each other, Qin Jingru suddenly exclaimed in surprise.

"Over eighty years old!"

"Then...then you have to call us Grandma, right?"

???

Zhou Feng tilted his head to look at Qin Jingru, while Lou Xiao'e and Bai Ling covered their mouths at the same time, almost bursting out laughing.

This girl's brain circuits are definitely different from normal people's!

Standing before her was a person who had traveled from sixty years in the future, and the only thing she was interested in was how he addressed her!

"Whether or not I call her Grandma isn't up to me, nor is it up to you. I have to ask Grandma!"

"Ask Grandma? Is she here too?"

Qin Jingru looked at Zhou Feng with some curiosity, but didn't notice that he was getting closer and closer to her.

"Don't you know whether Grandma came or not? Isn't she on you? I'll grab her and ask her!"

As he spoke, Zhou Feng pounced on her and pulled Qin Jingru into his arms.

"Oh no! Brother Zhou Feng! I was wrong! Let go... let go first, I was really wrong! Sister Bai Ling, Sister Xiao'e, please help me!"

Before Qin Jingru could react, Zhou Feng had already grabbed both of her hands with one hand. Seeing that he could take whatever he wanted with his other hand, she first begged for mercy and then asked for help.

Unfortunately, Bai Ling and Lou Xiao'e exchanged a glance and then turned their heads in the opposite direction at the same time.

"Ugh! You guys are so disloyal! Ugh..."

As if sensing something, Lou Xiao'e and Bai Ling blushed and kept their backs to Zhou Feng and Qin Jingru.

It wasn't until more than ten minutes later, when Qin Jingru was panting heavily and snorted angrily, that they turned back.

Zhou Feng wiped his mouth, smiled, and sat back down in his seat.

The solution to this girl's problem is simple: just make her shut up. As for how to do that, I won't go into details.

Moreover, Zhou Feng was intentionally being intimate with Qin Jingru in front of the other two women, which could be considered a kind of alternative desensitization reaction.

The only candidate is Qin Jingru; replacing her with Lou Xiao'e or Bai Ling would elicit strong resistance.

It seems to be working well so far; at least they've all tacitly accepted it.

"Brother Zhou Feng, are all these rice, flour, oil, meat, vegetables, washing machine, oven, and stuff you brought from sixty years in the future?"

Compared to Lou Xiao'e and Bai Ling, who were still blushing, Qin Jingru was the first to react. Her gaze swept over the row of appliances in the room, and she had a knowing look on her face.

She knew it!

Even the high-ranking officials who come to my house are full of curiosity when they see these appliances, and this explanation makes sense!

Sure enough, Zhou Feng nodded.

"Then... Brother Zhou Feng, sixty years from now... will our Lou family still exist?"

Lou Xiao'e, who was standing to the side, suddenly asked a question that no one else had thought of.
