Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
Huo You wanted to go to the cosmetics counter to put on some makeup, but her phone rang several times. They were from Mrs. Huo, probably to urge her to hurry up and apologize to Huo Tian.
Huo You was so frustrated that she couldn’t be bothered to put in any other effort. She came to the urban village with a pale face.
The total from her time in her past life and this life, Huo You had lived in the urban village for almost 40 years. She tried her best to escape this place, to return to the class that should have belonged to her and forget about everything here…

Even before she got close, she knew what business the boss of the shop at the next street corner was in. When she heard a familiar voice, she knew that it was a neighbor auntie who talked non-stop all day.
Even the taxi driver didn’t know the road conditions in the urban village as well as Huo You. Under Huo You’s guidance, the taxi drove to a street corner not far from the Ding Family’s small courtyard. Huo You paid the fare, but she continued to sit in the taxi.
She looked at the courtyard that was exactly the same as she remembered from afar. The two-story house looked dusty and didn’t look any different from the surrounding buildings. However, it was slightly cleaner than the surrounding houses that were covered in dust.
The taxi driver looked at Huo You strangely and urged, “Miss, we’ve reached our destination. Are you getting off?”
Only then did Huo You come back to her senses and place her hand on the car door, but she suddenly realized that something was wrong. Ding Rong and Huo Tian’s identities had changed, so how could they still be living in this small, narrow building in the urban village?
Huo You had been impatient with Mrs. Huo’s coercion and took a taxi here without much thought. Only now did she realize that she had made such an obvious mistake.
Just as she was about to ask the driver to turn around, the window on Huo You’s side was suddenly knocked twice.
Through the car window, Huo You saw a familiar face.
That was… Huo You thought about it for a moment and suddenly remembered that this person was her neighbor, a young boy named Liu Jun.
Liu Jun met Huo You’s gaze and immediately broke into a big smile. He waved at the girl in the car and called out in surprise, “Huo You, it’s really you!”

As he had experienced a life-and-death situation, Liu Jun’s personality became even more composed. He also started to carefully choose the various jobs that were offered to him. He then found a few partners who were both capable and had good characters, slowly establishing an agency.
At the mention of Liu Jun now, all the neighbors in the urban village would smile and praise him as being “successful in his career” or “young and capable”.
Today, Liu Jun was planning on filming a video in the urban village about the living situation of lower-class people. To his surprise, he saw Huo You seated in a taxi.
Since young, he had paid a lot of attention to girls who looked beautiful and had outstanding results. Liu Jun had also leaned against the wall and secretly watched Huo You carrying her back and slowly walking along the street. The current Huo You was very different from how she looked in his memories, but Liu Jun still recognized her from one look.
Since the past, Huo You hadn’t liked Liu Jun, who always dressed in non-mainstream fashion. After she returned to the Huo Family, she viewed these unpresentable neighbors in greater disdain too.
However, today, probably to stall for time and not apologize to Huo Tian so quickly, Huo You agreed to Liu Jun’s invitation and went with him to a new milk tea shop on another street.
