301: To give her a surprise

"Definitely. At first, I thought they were complementary colors. I didn't expect them to be two peony varieties. Could it be that after Zhen Yexin traveled to the ancient parallel world, he made that vase and inscribed a poem on it? The signature used his own online name and real name." Hong Tongtong became more and more surprised as she spoke, excited by her accidental discovery that afternoon.

"Then what do we do now? If he's stuck in the ancient parallel world, we can't help him!" Liu Xiaolin said with a frown.

"I think we should get that yaohuang weizi peony vase and take it to Jiangnan City First Hospital to find Zhen Yexin. Maybe it can trigger some kind of time-space tunnel and bring him back from the ancient parallel world." Hong Tongtong got more and more excited as she spoke.

"That's a priceless antique. How can we possibly get it?" Liu Xiaolin said, shaking his head.

"Let's go find Deputy Minister Mao and tell him about this situation, and ask him to help us." Hong Tongtong said.

"He'll say we're crazy." Liu Xiaolin said, shaking his head.

"Then what should we do?" Hong Tongtong said disappointedly.

"Anyway, I've already told my mom and asked her to help Zhen Yexin find nursing staff. Let's not worry about this for now." Liu Xiaolin thought for a moment and said, "Let's finish the work we have on hand first, and then go back to Jiangnan City to see him. If we find any clues, we'll act accordingly."

"Okay, even if we get the yaohuang weizi peony vase now, we can't just wander around with it. If it breaks, we can't afford to compensate." Hong Tongtong also figured it out, "Maybe we don't need that antique vase at all to help Zhen Yexin return from the ancient parallel world."

"Keep the poem you copied safe. Maybe that's what will be useful." Liu Xiaolin said suddenly.

"Okay, I kept it. When I get back to the dorm later, I'll take a picture of that paper so I won't be afraid of losing it." Hong Tongtong even made double preparations for that poem. www.x33xs.com

The two of them talked as they walked back to the dorm.

"Let's get some rest early. Tomorrow, we'll both sleep in, skip breakfast, and just get up for lunch. How about that?" Liu Xiaolin asked.

"Okay, I'm exhausted today. I'm going back to my dorm to wash up and rest." Hong Tongtong said.

"Okay, go ahead." Liu Xiaolin kissed Hong Tongtong's cheek, saw her into her dorm, and then went into his own.

After closing the door, he immediately picked up his phone and called Shen Zhiyong: "General Manager Shen, hello."

"Oh, General Manager Liu, hello, what are your instructions?" Shen Zhiyong said on the other end of the phone.

"About the drone show I mentioned yesterday, would tomorrow night work?" Liu Xiaolin asked.

"Yes! You'll be here tomorrow night? Around what time?" Shen Zhiyong asked.

"We might arrive in the afternoon. I'll stay at New Hope until the evening under the guise of work, and you can arrange the drone show then. After I wait for your notification in the office with Hong Tongtong, I'll take her out to watch." Liu Xiaolin said.

It turned out he rushed back to his dorm to communicate with Shen Zhiyong about the drone show in order to give Hong Tongtong a surprise.

"No problem, don't worry. I'll get everything sorted out." Shen Zhiyong readily agreed.

"What kind of content will the drone show have?" Liu Xiaolin asked with a bit of curiosity.

"It's a secret!" Shen Zhiyong teased, "You'll know when you get here tomorrow."

"Okay, then I'll trust your abilities." Liu Xiaolin said with a smile, "Don't embarrass me."

"Don't worry, I'll definitely give you and your girlfriend a big surprise." Shen Zhiyong said with great confidence.

Only after arranging tomorrow's drone show did Liu Xiaolin feel relieved enough to wash up and rest.

The next day, Liu Xiaolin didn't wake up until past ten. After he got up and washed, he was just about to go wake up Hong Tongtong when Hong Tongtong knocked and came in like a local tyrant.

"You're up? I was just about to knock hard to wake you up." Hong Tongtong seemed to have slept well; her little face was rosy, and she looked very energetic.

"I just woke up. You've been awake for a while?" Liu Xiaolin asked.

"I just finished washing up too. I was going to see if you were awake. If you are, we can go eat something and then go see Explorer II." Hong Tongtong said with a smile, "Didn't you say we also had to visit New Hope? We can go there earlier. If something comes up, we'll have more time to deal with it."

"Okay, I'll listen to you." When Liu Xiaolin heard this, it was exactly what he wanted.

The two of them went to the cafeteria, ate some wontons and fried dough sticks, and then ran to the seaside to see Explorer II.

Explorer II had its own dedicated dock. When the two of them walked near the dedicated dock, they saw this massive object.

"This Explorer II is also very big." After getting used to the size of the great bear, Hong Tongtong was quite calm when she saw Explorer II.

"Haha, everyone is amazed by how big Explorer II is when they see it, but you're quite calm." Liu Xiaolin said.

"Is there anyone inside now?" Hong Tongtong asked curiously.

"No one. The R&D personnel can monitor its data and status from the lab, so there's no need to stand guard here." Liu Xiaolin said.

"Can we go inside then?" Hong Tongtong asked, a little worried.

"Of course we can! I'll give Engineer Niu a call, and he can open the hatch for us remotely." Liu Xiaolin said.

"Quick, call him! I want to go in and take a look." Hong Tongtong urged.

Liu Xiaolin quickly called Niu De, and soon, the hatch opened automatically.

Liu Xiaolin held Hong Tongtong's hand and walked in. They first took a look around the cockpit, and then the living quarters.

"Wow, this Explorer II is full of big screens everywhere." Hong Tongtong exclaimed.

"Haha, these large screens are connected to cameras outside the cabin, so you can see the outside situation in real-time." Liu Xiaolin said proudly, "Our sonar system is the world's top technology."

"That's really amazing. If there's underwater tourism again in the future, I want to join a group." Hong Tongtong said.

"No problem, it's all free." Liu Xiaolin said with a smile.

"All free? Well, can I get the five million back from the Xingji Travel Group I joined last time?" Hong Tongtong deliberately tried to give Liu Xiaolin a hard time.

"Huh? That five million? Maybe not, the finance department has already finished the accounting. If you want five million, I'll use my own savings to pay you back tomorrow." Liu Xiaolin said seriously.

"No need, I was just teasing you." Hong Tongtong said, "You even charged me two hundred thousand for training fees, and I didn't say anything. Hmph!"

Liu Xiaolin couldn't believe Hong Tongtong remembered so much and felt extremely awkward: "Didn't I make up for it later? Look at the loves gift no. 1 parked on the shore, isn't that my compensation to you? Hurry up and forget about those things."

"Okay, I've forgotten everything. You just remember it for me." Hong Tongtong said with a sly smile.
