Chapter 30
The Little Fairy in His Eyes
Whenever she wanted to return to her original era, Jiang Rang had to leave through the very first door she had stepped through.
She once again returned to the door of the previous fire station. Passing through a dark passageway, she returned to her dilapidated grocery store.
Jiang Rang had dazed off for six hours in that other world. When she returned here, judging by the position of the sun, she estimated that a similar amount of time had passed.
She checked the bag of clothes she had just bought; not a single item was missing. Only the labels on the clothes had automatically adjusted to fit this era upon crossing over.
Just as she pushed open the grocery store door to step onto the street, Jiang Rang saw Cheng Wennian, still looking like a naive young man, along with another man she didn't recognize at all. In any case, anyone who associated with Cheng Wennian was probably up to no good.
Jiang Rang didn't want to bother with the two of them; she only wanted to quickly sell all the clothes she had brought back. Once sold, she would go to the Cheng family to settle everything. From then on, their paths would diverge—they would live their glorious lives, while she walked her own single-plank bridge.
Gu Qingcheng had been squatting under the old mulberry tree for over six hours, and his legs had gone numb. When he saw Jiang Rang step out of the store, he felt his wait had not been in vain. She was indeed the little fairy he had been searching for.
Now, his fairy had changed into a light green dress. Her fair, beautiful face was like a brilliant flower in midsummer, truly radiating an ethereal, fairy-like aura.
Gu Qingcheng tightly clutched the ticket stub in his palm. Wanting to step forward and greet her, he stood up and adjusted his clothes. Gu Qingcheng tried his best not to look like a lecher.
But Cheng Wennian, who was beside him, suddenly stood up and ran toward Jiang Rang, beating Gu Qingcheng by a step. As Cheng Wennian ran, he called out, "Xiao Rang, where did you go just now?"
Gu Qingcheng's eyes turned red. His beautiful fairy was actually Xiao Rang... At this moment, his heart was filled with regret—regret that he hadn't broken Cheng Wennian's legs during the martial arts tournament that day.
