Rebirth of a Village Girl

Chapter 312: 105: Righteous Yangyang, Mystery Boss’s Confession_3

In fact, Mo Qishen wanted to take Ni Yang to a fancy restaurant, but he was afraid that she would feel distanced because of it.

He wanted to get closer to Ni Yang.

As it turned out, compared to fancy restaurants, Ni Yang preferred this place.

“Great, I want Teppanyaki Squid.”

Teppanyaki Squid is a common street snack in later times. Ni Yang didn’t expect that it was already available here in Guangguan during the 1980s.

The two of them sat at a seafood stall, and besides Teppanyaki Squid, they ordered other seafood dishes.

It was essential to accompany seafood with beer. At this time, Yanjing Beer was the most popular.

Actually, beer was already available as early as 1914. By the 1980s, it was everywhere – not just in thriving cities like Guangguan, but also in rural areas.

Ni Yang turned to look at Mo Qishen, “Brother Mo, do you want some beer?”

Mo Qishen raised his eyebrows in surprise, “You drink?”

He had assumed that a beautiful girl like Ni Yang would abstain from alcohol.

Ni Yang smiled, “What, do I look like someone who doesn’t drink?”

Not only did she drink, but she could also hold her liquor very well.

No one achieves success easily. In her previous life, Ni Yang, as Ni’s director, honed her drinking skills through banquets and social events, once setting a record of downing two pounds of liquor at once.

However, that was in her past life. In this life, for her health, Ni Yang hadn’t touched alcohol since she was reborn.

Mo Qishen spoke with a smile, “Shall we get two bottles then?”

“Mm.”

Soon, the boss brought over two bottles of beer.

Just as Mo Qishen was about to open the beer, he realized he didn’t see any opener, “Boss, could I get a bottle opener please?”

Before he could finish speaking, a hissing sound of opened beer came from across him, followed by Ni Yang spitting out the beer cap from her mouth.

In that instant, Mo Qishen saw his future standing in the household.

Good heavens!

That was a bit too bold…

This slightly audacious action, when done by Ni Yang, had an inexplicable charm about it. From biting the bottle cap to spitting it out, everything was done swiftly and fluidly.

Mo Qishen had seen countless refined ladies from prestigious families, but he had never seen a girl as casual as Ni Yang.

She was clear-headed and genuine in her way of living.

It seemed like nothing could hold her down.

She was like a mysterious and tranquil orchid blooming in a valley.

“Brother Mo, here.” Ni Yang handed Mo Qishen the beer she had just opened.

At this moment, the boss brought the bottle opener, and upon seeing the scene, he joked, “This young girl is really something!”

Ni Yang modestly responded, “It’s nothing much.”

Both of them were drinking beer and eating seafood, and in a while, they had almost finished their meal.

Ni Yang had her arms crossed and was leaning against the back of the chair, she didn’t feel like moving at all. It had been such a tiring day.

Just then, she felt something lightly poke into the middle of her hand. Ni Yang looked back and saw what seemed like a family of three sitting at the next table.

The man was big and tall, the woman was skinny and dark, and both of them dressed humbly. The three of them had only one dish and a soup on their table, and the man and woman were speaking in a dialect others couldn’t understand.

The little girl was wearing a semi-worn blue ant-colored coat, and a pair of ragged pants. Even though she had a dirty little face, her features were beautiful, with a pair of big teary eyes that looked familiar.

The little girl was sitting to Ni Yang’s right, so it must have been her who ‘teased’ Ni Yang earlier.

Ni Yang nonchalantly steadied her vision again and pulled out the paper from her hand. Upon seeing it, she realized it was a small note.

The note barely had anything written on it.

All it had were three Arabic numbers –

995.

Ni Yang furrowed her brows slightly. Given the way 995 sounds, it might signify ‘help me’. Was the little girl asking for help?

At this moment, Ni Yang suddenly recalled that the little girl was none other than Meimei, the one she had accidentally bumped into on the train earlier.

Even though her clothing differed, Ni Yang hadn’t forgotten her unique pair of eyes.

Could Meimei have encountered human traffickers?

Actually, human trafficking wasn’t uncommon in the 1980s. The traffickers would lure women, kidnap children, sell them off, or even mutilate them to force them into begging.

With no surveillance at that time and people being less security-conscious, the victims targeted by the traffickers were easy to nab.
