Huo Jingrui had intended to browse on his own, but Fu Chenyi said, "Come on, I’ll take you to see something good. Just tell him directly what you want later." Seeing they had ample time, Huo Jingrui didn’t decline. The two of them followed the store clerk from earlier, heading toward the back. After arriving at the workers’ workshop at the back, they were led into a small storeroom. A staff member said, "Young Master Fu, the master craftsman has already repaired it for you. Please see if it meets your satisfaction." Pulling back the tarpaulin revealed the screen inside. But with just one look, not only was Fu Chenyi stunned, but even Huo Jingrui, who had tagged along out of curiosity, froze on the spot, staring intently at a particular section of the screen. When he came to his senses, he turned his head to Fu Chenyi. "Where did this screen come from?" Fu Chenyi, his eyes still fixed on it, said, "This wasn’t acquired from ’below,’ so don’t you get any ideas." This type of item was now considered ’cultural refuse.’ He naturally wouldn’t reveal it was a private family heirloom. However, since this was part of his official duties, arranging a small perk for himself wouldn’t attract too much attention. Besides, he wouldn’t admit it was his family’s property, only that he was assisting a "brother unit." Huo Jingrui, however, couldn’t pay attention to what Fu Chenyi was saying. He asked eagerly, "Has this double-sided embroidery been mended by someone?" Fu Chenyi was slightly puzzled. "How do you know about such things?" Huo Jingrui himself wasn’t sure. Yet, upon seeing the screen, he could recognize the repaired parts. The embroidery work seemed strangely familiar, and fragments of images flickered through his mind, though he couldn’t quite grasp them. Fu Chenyi noticed Huo Jingrui was still staring at him and said, "Let go of me first." Seeing Huo Jingrui let go, Fu Chenyi turned to the staff member. "The repair work on the item is quite good. I’ll have someone come to pick it up tomorrow." After speaking, he pulled Huo Jingrui out. "The screen really has been repaired," he explained. "The person who helped mend it is over in Ji Province, at Hua’an Farm Reclamation. However, I can’t tell you the exact location. After all, they did me a favor, and I can’t just turn around and betray them." Huo Jingrui said very seriously, "Don’t worry, I’m not looking to cause trouble. I just want to know who mended the screen for you." Fu Chenyi, seeing his serious expression, asked, "Could it be that you also have some embroidery that needs repairing?" Huo Jingrui grasped Fu Chenyi’s shoulder. Not wanting to beat around the bush any longer, he nodded directly. "Yes." Fu Chenyi, seeing that he wasn’t lying, said, "The person is at Hua’an Farm Reclamation in Ji Province." As soon as Fu Chenyi said this, Huo Jingrui’s heart nearly leaped out of his chest. "What’s her name?" Fu Chenyi found his friend’s behavior a bit strange. "Promise me you won’t cause her any trouble." Huo Jingrui raised his hand. "I swear." Fu Chenyi cleared his throat lightly. "The young woman’s name is Chuyunyi, and she works at the Hua’an Farm Reclamation Clinic." Follow current ɴᴏᴠᴇʟs on 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⁂𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚⁂𝔫𝔢𝔱 Having gotten the answer he wanted, Huo Jingrui pressed a hand to his chest, trying to steady his turbulent emotions. What exactly was his relationship with Chuyunyi? And what was the connection between the girl in his dream and Chuyunyi? He would be working over there in just a few days! His heart surged with excitement at the thought. He was determined to figure out what exactly was going on. Recalling the main reason for his outing, he regained his composure. Then, realizing that this fellow also knew Yunyi, he looked at Fu Chenyi with some annoyance. "Alright, go attend to your business. I’ll wander around a bit. I still need to head back to the Military Department later." Fu Chenyi genuinely had matters to attend to, but he still instructed the staff inside to assist Huo Jingrui. Watching Fu Chenyi leave, Huo Jingrui headed towards the women’s clothing section. His eyes immediately landed on a camel-colored woolen coat. "Comrade," he said to a salesperson, "could you please get that coat down for me to take a look at?" He had initially intended to ask the sales staff to try it on for size, but they were either not as tall as Yunyi or didn’t have a similar figure, so he abandoned the idea. After purchasing the coat, he thought he should also get a pair of shoes to go with it. Noticing boots for sale, he directly asked the clerk for a pair in Yunyi’s size. After checking them and finding no issues, he left the Friendship Store with his purchases, a little earlier than planned. Ye Bingyu saw Zhong Yuhu return and immediately brought him into the office. "How did it go?" Zhong Yuhu removed his hat before speaking. "I asked around quite a bit. Zhang Baosheng did indeed lose a daughter. At that time, the child was a little over a year old and had just started walking steadily."
