After the banquet, Zhou Miao kept Cheng Heng company as he worked during the day and spent several peaceful days.

Although Cheng Heng’s illness was very serious and he had difficulty communicating with people, he was very talented in drawing and design. He also majored in design at university and was very gifted in designing furniture and trendy toys.

After graduating from university, he had worked in the company for a while, but because of his illness, he couldn’t even do this job anymore. He could only return home first to do some design.

Cheng Tai was now in charge of marketing and sales. It could be said that Cheng’s Group relied on the two designers, Cheng Heng and Yu Ying, to produce good products.

Knock! Knock!

Zhou Miao opened the door. It was Yu Ying. She was standing at the door with a plate of carp pancakes.

“What’s wrong?”

“We haven’t chatted for a long time. I don’t have much to do at the company these two days, so I thought of having a chat with you.”

“I don’t want to.” Zhou Miao searched through the original owner’s memories. In the original owner’s memories, this older sister had mocked her quite a few times, whether implicitly or explicitly.

Those seemingly warm words of comfort were full of condescension towards the original owner in reality. It was no wonder the original owner chose to run away in such a situation.

“I’m keeping Cheng Heng company. I’m not free.” Zhou Miao closed the door in a bad mood.

“Wait! There’s something I want to talk to you about.” Yu Ying stopped her from closing the door. “Mom said that Uncle and Aunt left you a jade coin. I have a friend who does appraisals for jade accessories. I was thinking of taking it for an appraisal…”

“It’s a memento from my parents. Would I care if it’s real jade? Or are you telling me I should sell this?” Zhou Miao had never heard of such a flimsy excuse.

“No, although it’s a memento, it’s always good to ascertain its value.”

“No, thanks.” Zhou Miao’s voice was icy cold. “But I have a friend who specializes in repairing silver accessories. Your longevity locket looks a little blackened. Do you want me to help you get it repaired?”

Yu Ying covered the longevity locket on her chest and took a step back. “I’ll find a professional to fix it. You don’t have to worry about it. Have an early rest.”

Zhou Miao gave her a meaningful look, then walked past her and re-entered the bedroom.

Once inside the bedroom, she looked at the jade coin in her hand. This jade coin must have some special meaning, or Yu Ying wouldn’t be so anxious to snatch it.

“Little Heng, do you have a safe or something? It’s a place where you keep your treasures and don’t let others see them.”

Cheng Heng looked at her for a while, then silently opened the cabinet under the desk. There was a box inside with a combination lock.

“I’m going to put my things in there for a while. Help me keep them safe.”

There wasn’t much in the box except for a few gold bars and a stack of yellowed books, one of which was emitting a golden light.

Had she found a token?

[Congratulations, Master. You have found the 4th token. This time, you need 15 smiley faces for this transmigration mission. Do you wish to exchange?]

Such a coincidence. It must be heaven’s will! Exchange, exchange, exchange!

Zhou Miao cheered in her heart.

Ding, ring, ring…

The ear-piercing ringing of the elementary school bell woke Zhou Miao up from her sleep.

This time, she woke up in a primary school. The school was decorated in a western style, with white roofs and red walls. It appeared very classy.

“We can just put our names on the idiot’s homework. He can’t speak anyway, so we won’t be exposed.”

“I want the book for art homework.”

“I want the math exercises book. I didn’t do any homework during the summer break.”

The place she had transmigrated to was the art studio at the end of the corridor. Two children in the fourth or fifth grade were tearing open the exercise books in their hands and wrapping them with another cover on the outside.

During Zhou Miao’s school days, she had encountered some students ripping out the inner pages of other students’ homework books, then wrapping them with external covers that had their own names on them, pretending that they had already done their homework.

This was especially prevalent for homework issued for summer and winter vacations. The teacher usually wouldn’t look at the specific content. He would simply give a quick glance and be done with it.

These two children were too mean. How could they do this?

“What are you looking at? You’re an idiot. Even if you don’t do your homework, the teacher won’t scold you.”

One of the boys shouted at the other side of the classroom.

“I don’t dare to call him an idiot. He even wrote our names into the duty roster book when he was on duty last semester. Also, he often scored 100 points in mathematics. I don’t know if he’s really an idiot or just pretending.” Another boy said as he tugged at the child who was scolding out loud.

Looking in the direction they were staring at, there was a little boy standing by the window. The golden rays of the autumn sun shone on his face, and he sported a round mushroom head hairstyle. His entire person was in a daze.

It was Little Cheng Heng.

The two boys locked the classroom door after splitting the loot.

Zhou Miao grabbed Cheng Heng’s hand to try and push open the door, but the door was securely locked by the two and did not move an inch.
