Xia Zhijin pursed her lips in a small smile as the gloom in her heart gradually dissipated, her laughter and cheerfulness returning.
After all, one must always look forward.

Amid their conversation, they soon arrived at Chen Family Village, where Xia Zhijin's grandmother lived. Xia Zhijin's mother's surname was Chen, and indeed, everyone in the village shared that name.
Li Yuan looked around. Chen Family Village wasn't large, consisting of only twenty or thirty households. Compared to the rural areas of Northern Anhui, the population was much smaller, likely due to the lower population density in the mountains.
At this time, cars were a rarity, especially in a remote mountain area like Chen Family Village.
When the Land Rover came swaying into view, the villagers all stared curiously at the large vehicle, buzzing with discussion.
"What kind of car is that? It looks quite impressive!"
"Did someone in our village buy a car? Look, the license plate is from Shancheng."
