Reborn with a Cell Phone 2007

Before Ji Shumiao returned to Beijing, he met Luo Kai once more in a small noodle restaurant near Lan Xiangyang's rental house.

Ji Shumiao gave him an envelope and the address in Tonghuali: "When you figure it out, come find me here."

Luo Kai's right hand was wrapped in dirty medical gauze, and the gauze at the base of his thumb had been stained light yellow by the fluid secreted from the wound.

Luo Kai has had a low-grade fever for the past two days and his wound has become infected.

Luo Kai opened the envelope and was shocked by the hundred-yuan bills stuffed inside. He clutched his collar and said, "What are you doing? I'm not selling my body! You're so young, and you're playing so wild?"

It turns out that the bad mouth started from that time.

Ji Shumiao laughed: "You don't have a mirror, but you have urine, right?"

"Then what do you want?" Luo Kai put down his left hand.

"I see that you have a unique bone structure, and you are a good material for IT." Ji Shumiao glanced at his right hand, "Otherwise, can you find other jobs that don't use your right thumb?"

I'm afraid that's not possible.

Luo Kai lowered his head and glanced at his hands with a wry smile: "To be honest, when I couldn't even pick up the chopsticks, I regretted for a moment not accepting your help."

However, after he became more and more skilled at using chopsticks with his left hand, he no longer regretted it.

Ji Shumiao laughed: "A person may be poor for a while, but his heart is poor for a lifetime. Do you know what the biggest characteristic of a poor heart is? It is not knowing which side is more important when encountering things. If you feel regretful, it means there is still hope."

Luo Kai choked.

Ji Shumiao stood up, waved at him and walked out.

She didn't care whether Luo Kai would come to her for help. If he did, that would be the best. If not, that was also okay. She would just regard the 20,000 yuan as the end of their fate of meeting each other in the previous life.

"Miss Ji...Miss Ji." Purple-haired Wang Rui, who had been waiting outside the noodle shop, called out to her, and squeezed out words one by one as if he had difficulty speaking: "I...I apologize to you, I shouldn't have..."

Ji Shumiao sneered and interrupted him: "The person you should apologize to is my brother, not me."

She felt guilty about her own misguided thinking, not about the man's fate.

"If my brother and I were powerless, would you apologize?"

After Ji Shumiao finished speaking, without waiting for his answer, she walked towards the Hongqi car parked on the side of the road. The driver Yang Donglin hurriedly got out to open the door for her.

Wang Rui's eyes were sinister, his lips moved, and he cursed silently.

With the money given by Ji Shumiao, Luo Kai rented a house and moved out of Lan Xiangyang's rental house with Wang Rui.

"Mommy~ I miss you so much~"

After returning home to Beijing, Ji Shumiao immediately threw himself into Qin Rong's arms, hugged her arms and acted coquettishly.

Qin Rong pretended to be unhappy and snorted, "You didn't even tell me to go home early when you missed me, and I'm missing you so much that my heart aches."

"Your sweetheart is back. It doesn't hurt anymore~" Ji Shumiao coaxed her like a child. She reached out and touched her mother's pregnant belly. "Did Tongtong miss me?"

Ji Shutong kicked his mother's palm through her belly, or perhaps he stretched out his fist.

Ji Shumiao chuckled: "She still remembers my voice."

Almost every time Ji Shumiao called Tongtong, she would respond.

The whole family held a "senior" meeting to discuss whether Ms. Qin Rong could attend the opening ceremony of the Olympic Games.

Logically speaking, Qin Rong has entered the late stage of pregnancy, so it is not advisable for her to go to crowded places. There will be fireworks and drums, and it would be bad if she was startled.

But Qin Rong had already got the tickets for such a grand event, and she was unwilling to miss it.

"Let me go. This child is very well behaved. There will be no problem." Qin Rong acted coquettishly towards her mother. "If you don't let me go, I will regret it for the rest of my life."

Grandma was the one who was most against her going, and she advised her earnestly: "Just stay at home and be quiet. It's almost nine months. What if you have a premature birth?"

Qin Rong was about to cry: "You all go and leave me alone at home?"

Ji Zhenhua hurriedly expressed his loyalty: "Wife, wife, if you don't go, I won't go either. I will stay at home with you and we can watch the live broadcast on TV."

Qin Rong rolled her eyes at him and said fiercely, "How can you butt in?!"

Ji Zhenhua shrank his neck and dared not say a word.

"Mom~" Qin Rong turned around and looked coquettish again, "Your little granddaughter said she wants to go too. She really wants to go."

Ji Shumiao held a coconut in his hand, drank the sweet coconut juice through a straw, and watched his mother perform her unique face-changing skills.

Grandma was both angry and amused: "How old are you? Why are you still using the baby in your belly as an excuse?"

"No matter how big I am, I'm not bigger than you~" Qin Rong whined and pretended to cry, "And it's not an excuse, Tongtong really wants to go."

Grandma: "Then let Tongtong speak. If she says so, I will let you go."

Qin Rong: "..."

[Tongtong...want to go...]

Ji Shumiao's bared teeth instantly retracted. What was that sound just now...

"What's wrong?" Brother Lang noticed that she was in a bad mood and asked in a low voice.

Ji Shumiao: "Brother, did you hear any strange noises just now?"

Langge shook his head: "No."

"I guess I heard it wrong." Ji Shumiao let out a breath, picked up the straw and continued to drink coconut juice.

But, that was clearly the voice of a child just now.

Finally, under Qin Rong's insistence, grandma finally gave in.

After dinner, Ji Shumiao talked to his friends on the phone while watching the evening news.

Du Zixi and Han Qi, who were spending their summer vacation in other cities, returned early after receiving news from Ji Shumiao. Qingqing also ended her journey early and just returned to her home in Beijing.

They were more excited than each other, chattering about plans to go to the opening ceremony the day after tomorrow, etc. Ji Shumiao's phone kept ringing, making her head hurt, so she said, "Come to my house tomorrow to discuss it. It's hard to explain over the phone."

Only then could Ji Shumiao watch the news with peace of mind. Watching the news every day had become her habit. Tonight's evening news reported the latest situation of the heavy rain and floods in South China.

Due to comprehensive prevention and control measures taken in advance, there were no major casualties in this flood.

Ji Shumiao counted on his fingers the five major disasters in 2008: the snow disaster in the south, the Wenchuan earthquake, and the Ya'an floods have all been successfully overcome, the South China floods are also about to end, and the only thing left is the 12.4 extremely serious fire.

The fire was a man-made disaster, so it should be easier to prevent. I’ll talk to Lu Binghe about it after the Olympics.

Very good, another day of merit.

There shouldn't be any disasters that have been missed, right?

As for scientific research, the information Hua Wei could search for were all the results that were made public in later generations, some of which had already been broken through. Ji Shumiao did not understand those profound things, so the information he could find that was useful now was very limited.
