Ever since Luo Yang helped Qin Piao smooth out some troubles, Qin Piao seemed like a completely different person. Smiles appeared more frequently on her pretty face, and she no longer feared interacting with the villagers as before.
Now Qin Piao was gradually integrating into Hongyun Brigade, living a normal life.
Seeing Qin Piao happy made Luo Yang very relieved.
His efforts had finally not been in vain.
Whenever he saw Qin Piao unhappy, Luo Yang wanted to help her.
Now, at last, he had been able to help her.
Looking at Hong Jiaxin, Luo Yang thought if he could help her find her parents and resolve the matter with Mu Tan, allowing her to return to her once cheerful life, that would be more than great.
But there was no clue as to where the Hong Zhong Couple had gone.
Even if Luo Yang wanted to search for them, he had nowhere to begin.
He could only wait for some days to see if any new information surfaced.
At that time, he would search again, perhaps helping Hong Jiaxin reunite with her family.
The car stopped at the entrance to Qin Piao's house.
So, the group headed toward Qin Piao's house again.
Luo Yang needed to go to the county town, and he had to take Hong Jiaxin with him.
Having learned the night before that Zhang Jing was no ordinary person and that her purpose in coming here was not pure, Luo Yang had to be cautious of her.
"Squad leader, come with me to the county town," Luo Yang said.
"I won't go. I want to stay at home and read," Hong Jiaxin declined gently.
When she was silent, her expression became somewhat grave, clearly preoccupied with something.
Luo Yang knew she was missing her parents.
"Squad leader, we'll drop by the martial arts school on the way. I'll teach you some stuff," Luo Yang bluffed.
He knew very well what she most wanted to obtain.
Sure enough, after pondering for a moment, Hong Jiaxin agreed.
Originally, Qiao Zai Shui was in charge of the martial arts school, and if people came to enroll or learn, someone was there to receive and welcome them.
Now that Qiao Zai Shui had moved to the countryside with Luo Yang, the martial arts school was still in the county town. For safety reasons, she would not go on duty alone.
A new person had to be found to look after the martial arts school.
There were idlers and ruffians in Hongyun Brigade, and while Luo Yang thought to find one of them for the job, knowing that they were used to being idle and could not sit still, he had to seek someone else.
Fang Lin and Qin Piao still had to supervise the vegetable greenhouses.
The ones going to the county town were only Luo Yang, Hong Jiaxin, and Shuang Qiao.
Qiao Yousi drove the car, with Luo Yang and Hong Jiaxin sitting in the back seat.
All of a sudden, Luo Yang remembered he could take the opportunity to investigate Zhang Jing's background, provided he could first find out her family's address.
After the morning training had ended, he had not seen Zhang Jing.
Living in the village, Zhang Jing did not cook for herself but shared a kitchen with Qin Piao for cooking.
She was not seen at breakfast either, and it was unclear where she went to eat.
Luo Yang then called Zhang Jing. Although her family had not yet sent over her ID card, he could start by asking her for her home address.
The call connected normally, only to hear Zhang Jing ask, "Master, are you looking for me for something?"
Luo Yang said, "Yes, do you remember the home address on your ID card?"
But Zhang Jing claimed she had forgotten it.
He also asked her for her ID number, which she said she could not quite recall.
"We need to register today; can you get your ID card by noon?" Luo Yang asked further.
"I should be able to," replied Zhang Jing.
If Luo Yang hadn't planned to have lunch with Tan Shengmei, he would have stayed in the village waiting for Zhang Jing's ID card.
It didn't matter if it was a day or half a day late, Luo Yang thought.
After hanging up, Qiao Zai Shui curiously asked, "Niu Zai, what registration?"
Luo Yang did not want to disclose Zhang Jing's mysteriousness to others.
"Nothing much," Luo Yang answered vaguely.
Glancing at Hong Jiaxin, he noticed she was looking over with a puzzled face.
Luo Yang wanted to tease Hong Jiaxin to cheer her up, so he deliberately annoyed her.
Seeing the two of them start to squabble in the back, Shuang Qiao exchanged smiles.
Qiao Zai Shui laughed, "You two are too wild, even fighting in the car."
Luo Yang laughed, "Little Sister Qiao, the squad leader wants to hit me."
