Hong Kong.
Mingtai and Yu Manli walked on campus.
They are already students of Xiangjiang University.
While Mingtai was attending college here, he flew to other countries to trade stocks.
As his deputy, Yu Manli has been accompanying him.
Guo Qiyun is at the contact point in Magic City and is responsible for external relations.
Mingtai arranged this deliberately.
Guo Qiyun's girlfriend is in Shanghai. They spend less time together and more time apart. Mingtai is doing something good.
"Manli, where should we have lunch?"
"Just eat in the school cafeteria?"
"The food in the cafeteria is not delicious, why don't we go to Fulu Tea House to eat."
"All right."
"Manli, let's go watch a movie this afternoon?"
"Okay, there's a movie called "The Legend of White Snake" recently. I heard it's quite good."
Mingtai and Yu Manli started living on campus.
They study together in the classroom.
Eat together in the cafeteria.
Skip class together.
Participate in various club activities together.
Watch the classmates' drama performances together.
Let's chat together in the school's grove.
The quiet and peaceful campus life made them feel happy.
"By the way, Mingtai, students from Lingnan University recently performed a patriotic drama. Do we want to watch it?" After the fall of Guangzhou, Lingnan University moved to Xiangjiang and borrowed the classrooms of Xiangjiang University for classes.
"Lingnan University's patriotic drama? Then go and watch it." Mingtai seemed to remember something.
"Over there, I'll take you there."
...
Performance hall.
Many students and teachers came to watch the drama performed by Lingnan students.
Mingtai and Yu Manli arrived early and got a good seat.
Three gongs sounded.
The curtain opens.
The lights come on.
The drama begins.
A beautiful young girl wearing a red jacket with patches all over her body was sewing in a simple house. Behind her lay an old woman, tossing and turning, unable to sleep.
At this time, there was a knock on the door, and someone shouted, "Aunt Zhao!"
The girl in the red jacket hurriedly opened the door.
"They found this officer in the back mountain." A villager said outside the door.
"Xiaohong, is your brother back?" The old woman got up and asked.
"Shh, come in quickly, be careful." The girl in the red jacket hurriedly let the wounded man in.
"My son, why are you hurt like this?" the old woman shouted.
"He is an officer, not your son." The villager said.
"My son will be back tonight." The old woman's son died in the battle, and she was already a little delirious.
The performance continued, and the scene of the country's ruin and family's absence was revealed. It makes people sad and shed tears.
The play is coming to an end.
A young soldier and a girl in a red jacket are on the stage.
“My brother often says that God will bless honest and kind people.
I kowtow to you, for the sake of the country and for the sake of the nation for all generations, Daxia cannot be destroyed! "The girl in the red jacket shouted.
"Great Xia cannot be destroyed!" In the audience, an old professor stood up first and shouted.
"Daxia cannot be destroyed!" Everyone stood up and shouted.
"What a great performance, Manli. Let's go and get to know those students." Mingtai took Yu Manli to the backstage.
"Hello, are you all students at Lingnan University?" Mingtai asked, looking at the girl in the red jacket.
"Yes, we are all from Lingnan University. Are you students here too?" the male student who played the warrior role answered.
"Yes, my name is Mingtai, and this is my girlfriend Yu Manli."
"Hello, my name is Kuang Yumin, this is Wang Jiazhi, this is..." Kuang Yumin introduced a few people.
"Kuang Yumin, your drama is very good and very contagious. Also, Wang Jiazhi, you also performed very well."
"Thank you, but it's a pity that we are just performing, and we can't go into battle to kill the enemy with real swords and guns." Kuang Yumin said.
"It's not difficult to go into battle and kill the enemy. If Kuang Yumin wants to join the army, I can introduce you to it," Mingtai said.
"Really? I want to join the army. I want to kill the enemy and serve the country."
"Okay, you guys, if you want to go, I can introduce you to it, but the battlefield is dangerous, so you have to be prepared."
"I am not afraid of danger. I must resist the Japanese and save the country. Daxia cannot be destroyed!" Kuang Yumin shouted.
"We are not afraid either."
...
A few days later.
Kuang Yumin and other students were introduced to Wang Tianfeng by Mingtai.
Only Wang Jiazhi was left, and Mingtai arranged for her and Yu Manli to learn financial knowledge together.
Both of them will be Mingtai's right-hand men from now on.
…
Magic City.
Ming mansion.
Minglou and Mingjing chat.
"Sister, I heard from Mingtai that he no longer wants to study in college in Xiangjiang. He wants to come back." Minglou said.
"What? What does he want to do if he doesn't study?"
"Sister, the situation in Xiangjiang is also unstable. The Japanese are constantly increasing their troops, and war is about to break out. Mingtai wants to go back to the magic capital to study."
"Come back to study? I have been thinking recently. Xiangjiang is not a safe. I have to think of ways to give Mingtai a relatively stable learning environment. Changing schools every now and then is not a long-term solution."
"That's true. Sister, let Mingtai come back and let him study while helping you with your business?"
"There's no need to rush into business. Mingtai is still young. When he is older, you can help me. I'd better let him concentrate on his studies."
"That's okay. Sister, let Mingtai go to university in the Magic City. The war here is over and it's relatively stable for the time being. With you, Mingcheng and I here, we can take care of Mingtai, so it's safer."
"Okay, if Mingtai wants to come back, let him come back. With us watching, he can study well."
"Sister, when you go to Xiangjiang this time, will you bring Mingtai back?"
"Okay, Mingtai went to Xiangjiang. It's been a long time. I don't know if I have lost weight."
"Sister, can I help you book a hotel in Xiangjiang?" Minglou took the initiative to show his attentiveness.
"Oh? Are you paying to book a hotel for me? What's the matter with you? Just tell me."
"Sister, I have a friend who will come to the hotel where you are staying and deliver a letter to you. If you want you to bring this letter back intact, just give it to me."
"Is it just a letter?"
"right."
"no problem."
…
Xiangjiang Airport.
"Welcome to your next flight." Amid the welcome from the airport attendant, Ming Jing walked out alone.
"Sister, you're here!" Mingtai shouted. He and Yu Manli came to pick up Ming Jing.
"Mingtai, is this the girlfriend you talked about on the phone?" Mingjing called in advance. Mingtai mentioned Yu Manli.
"Yes, eldest sister, her name is Yu Manli."
"Hello, eldest sister." Yu Manli said hello obediently.
"Okay, okay, you are very delicate. No wonder you can charm my Mingtai."
"Sister, I heard that my elder brother booked a hotel for you?"
"Yes, he also asked me to send a letter back."
"You have to send a letter back specially? Is it that important?"
"have no idea."
"Come on, eldest sister, get in the car. This is Xiao Li. Brother Acheng sent you here to pick you up."
Several people took a car to Xiangjiang Royal Hotel together.
"Sister, this time Manli and I will go back to the Magic City together."
"That's fine. Xiangjiang is no longer safe. There are wars everywhere outside. We will still have someone to take care of us when we return to Magic City. I just don't know if Manli's parents agree?"
"Sister, Manli's parents are no longer here. She is alone now. She came to the university to study part-time and work-study..." Mingtai made up a story about Yu Manli's life.
"Alas... you are such a miserable child. From now on, the Ming family will be your home." Ming Jing took Yu Manli's little hand and comforted her a few words.
"Sister, I have made a lot of money in the Chouguo stock market recently." Mingtai changed the subject.
"Really? Mingtai, it's hard to make money in the stock market, and it's easy to lose money."
"Sister, don't worry. All the money I have in the stock market is earned by me. I have already paid out all my capital. In the future, even if I lose everything, it doesn't matter."
"That's good, Mingtai, you are still young. You should study hard. When you are successful in your studies, you can go home and help me in my business."
"Okay, eldest sister, I heard that my eldest brother is serving as an official for the Japanese puppets in the devil's capital?"
"Yes, you know it too. You said that he ignored the serious business at home and went to help Japanese and traitors. He also called it a curve to save the country. According to my past temperament, I would have Kicked him out of the house.”
"Sister, don't be angry."
"It would be strange not to be angry. I just..., I just thought, he might have other difficulties." Ming Jing did not express her guess. Minglou Shancheng’s identity needs to be kept secret.
"Sister, my brother is not that kind of person. Maybe he wants to restore the economy of the Magic City. He has always been an upright person and will not do anything casual. Also," Mingtai said this and leaned into Ming Jing's ear. Mingtai whispered, "My brother may be in the Cao camp but in the Han Dynasty." Mingtai broke the window paper.
"You said that too?" Minglou said this before, and now Mingtai said the same thing, which further confirmed Mingjing's suspicion.
】
"Sister, did my brother say the same thing?"
"Yes, that's what he told me."
"That's right. Sister, my brother will definitely not become a traitor."
