Chapter 949: Chapter 0949: Flying to the Capital 1

Feng Qingxue was first elated to have found He Qingyin, but then he grew worried about her background, "Comrade He Hongjun, how is Master He Qingyin doing now?"

With the misfortune that Wen Ruyu and others faced in the Capital, could He Qingyin in Shanghai avoid it?

He Hongjun sighed, speaking softly, "In such situation, who can be spared? I had a bit more timely information, so even before the trouble started, I took my grandmother and donated all the books and paintings in our house to the cultural relics authorities, oh, all of which are among those missing artifacts now. Who knows who did this. Then, I voluntarily surrendered our house to the state and, under the pretext of my grandmother’s serious illness, sought help from a few leaders in private, and finally won some leniency. Now the old lady is living in the house assigned to me by my work unit."

If they weren’t still alongside the road, Feng Qingxue would have wanted to bring his hands together and silently pray for the Buddha’s blessing.

"Comrade He Hongjun, could we meet her?" Feng Qingxue asked, "You can ask her first, and if she is willing to see us, you let us know, and then we will come to visit."

He Hongjun was stunned for a moment and hastily said, "That’s fine; I’ll ask and get back to you tomorrow."

No matter how good-tempered the old lady was, He Hongjun wouldn’t dare make a decision on her behalf.

Feng Qingxue pretended to pull out a neatly folded piece of paper from his bag and handed it to He Hongjun.

He Hongjun unfolded it and saw just three words written on it: "Feng Qingxue", the handwriting majestic and powerful.

"Why would you give your name to my grandmother?" He Hongjun was utterly perplexed.

Feng Qingxue smiled and said, "Comrade He, give this paper to your grandmother and ask her if she recognizes the familiar person written on it. She will surely tell you." After all, it was written personally by Wen Ruyu.

To gain He Qingyin’s trust, Feng Qingxue had made a special request for Wen Ruyu’s calligraphy.

Worried that writing other contents might arouse suspicion, Wen Ruyu had directly written Feng Qingxue’s name on the paper, ensuring a foolproof plan.

He Hongjun neatly folded the paper and put it back in his pocket.

He had mentioned his savior to He Qingyin before, but she did not seem to recognize Feng Qingxue.

That’s why He Hongjun half-doubted what Feng Qingxue said.

Given the many recent events, He Qingyin had become distrustful of the outside world, fearful of bringing unsolvable trouble to her nephew’s son. Unless necessary, the old lady would normally not leave the house.

At noon, when she was about to satisfy her hunger with leftover rice balls from the morning, she saw He Hongjun coming in from outside.

"Hongjun, you usually eat at the cafeteria at noon. Why did you come back today?" He Qingyin’s face was clear and kind, full of benevolence.

Although she lived in constant fear, He Qingyin’s mindset remained serene.

As one’s appearance often reflects the heart, a calm mind brings a benevolent demeanor.

"There was a strange incident at the cultural relics department today, and nobody felt like working. Everyone went off to investigate, so I came back," He Hongjun said as he placed his lunchbox on the table. The aroma of curry beef soup wafted out when he opened it. "Grandmother, you eat first. Haven’t I told you that my saviors have come to Shanghai? They would like to visit you."

As He Qingyin sipped her favorite beef soup, she declined without a second thought, "No, no, my old bones have a bad background. I don’t want to bring misfortune upon them."

He Hongjun’s motion to take out the piece of paper paused for a moment, "Who said you bring misfortune? The people who want to see you wouldn’t think so."
