Chapter 596 Why is my little cotton-padded jacket drafty? Who's behind this...?
[That's right, just as the host implies. So, have you already decided who you want to invite?]
"Yes, yes, then I must choose my mom—Ms. Lin Qingqing!!!"
However, my parents are usually very focused on their scientific research, and they are so busy all year round that I usually don't even see them.
If my mom knew I was doing well here, she wouldn't have to worry about me anymore...
But... they might not even realize yet that I disappeared from that world..."
Even though Bai Mengran was already used to being alone in modern times, she had long since adapted to the days when her parents were not around to accompany her.
This is also the fundamental reason why she wanted to experience life in another world and was able to adapt quickly after transmigrating.
No matter how strong and independent she is, family is always the softest and most inseparable bond in her heart.
Although she has spent less time with her parents over the years and their relationship has become somewhat distant, whenever the night is quiet and all is still, she still can't help but feel a longing for them...
"Ah! Tongzi, can I confirm the candidates first, but not send out invitations for the time being?"
I'm worried that inviting my mom over abruptly might interfere with her work...
"And I only have one day left. I want to wait until a more memorable day in the future to use this precious privilege..."
When she was little, her mother had her own career to attend to, and Bai Mengran would often cry and ask, feeling wronged, why was she the only one without her parents during her childhood, while other children had both their parents around?
It wasn't until she grew up and became more sensible that she gradually understood that her parents each had their own mission and commitments.
However, after so many years, all she knew was that her parents were engaged in scientific research.
However, due to the special nature of their work, they are subject to strict confidentiality requirements.
Even she, their own daughter, never knew exactly what her parents were researching.
Although the family of three rarely had the opportunity to reunite, even when they did, their interactions were somewhat awkward due to their unfamiliarity with each other...
But the moment she heard about the reward, the first thing that flashed through Bai Mengran's mind was still her parents!
【Of course, no problem. Then please fill in the inviter's name and details, as well as your specific relationship with them, on the invitation letter. This way, the system can accurately target the inviter.】
As for the invitation time, the host only needs to fill in the usage time on the invitation in advance, and it will take effect immediately!
"Okay, I'll fill in the inviter's information right away~"
As she spoke, she wrote down her mother's name, "Lin Qingqing," without hesitation.
However, while Bai Mengran was diligently filling out the inviter's information with great anticipation, she was completely unaware that...
In the parallel universe she was in before her transmigration, there was a middle-aged man with square-rimmed black glasses and a slightly overweight figure, who was intently staring at a central control display screen composed of densely packed screens.
From time to time, electronic notification sounds would be heard on those screens.
At this moment, his eyes were fixed intently on one of the screens, his intelligent gaze revealing a strong sense of confidence...
To his surprise, the very next second, when he saw that the name on the screen wasn't his, he was immediately proven wrong. This made him so angry that he glared at the screen, his face filled with disbelief.
Then, he shifted his buttocks back, and instantly deflated like a punctured balloon, leaning weakly against the back of the chair.
His round beer belly, slightly constricted by his work pants, rose and fell noticeably with each breath.
After a long while, he let out a long, helpless sigh:
"Oh, how come my sweet little girl is leaking air? Didn't she always say that her dearest and most beloved person was her dad when she was little...?"
The middle-aged man, who thought he had everything under control, was now on the verge of tears. His pitiful expression made him look exactly like a poor little pet that had been heartlessly abandoned...
"Forget it, even though I lost this bet to the child's mother, Qingqing will definitely laugh at me for it later..."
However, I have my own way of getting through this.
When the time comes, I'll sneak ahead of Qingqing and give my daughter a big surprise! Hehe~
A sly glint flashed behind the man's thick glasses, as if he was quite satisfied with his plan.
Seeing that there was nothing urgent on the monitor in front of him, he stood up, yawned widely, and prepared to go to the makeshift bed behind him for a comfortable nap...
It seems that from the day Bai Mengran transmigrated, the gears of fate had already begun to turn silently.
As the moon sets and the sun rises, who knows what new and interesting things will happen tomorrow?
The following day was destined to be an unusual one.
Before dawn, in the Anshun government affairs group, which has hundreds of members, early risers were already exchanging "good morning" greetings.
The group owner has set the group to a "Do Not Disturb" mode, displaying only the number of group messages (excluding messages from the group owner).
Therefore, the phone will only ring with a new message notification sound and pop up a reminder window on the screen when the group owner posts a message or when a group member @s everyone or @ a specific group member in the group.
In this way, unimportant chatter will not disturb others.
At this moment, only those group members who are always in the group and paying attention to the group messages can catch the latest news in the group in the first time.
Although they knew that the Emperor was also in the group, the officials, who had just received their own private jets yesterday, were still clearly immersed in the great excitement of exploring their phones.
Once someone starts chatting in the group, everyone else can't help but join in.
[Ma Qifeng, Vice Minister of the Ministry of Works]: I'm all packed and ready to board the inaugural high-speed train at 1:15 AM to head to [Fairyland]! I'm so excited!
[Minister of Rites Cui Yong]: What a coincidence, I am also taking the same high-speed train as Lord Ma. There is still more than half an hour before we board the train, and I am just about to order some takeout to have some breakfast to tide me over.
[Wang Fantong, Vice Minister of Revenue]: Let me give you all a heads-up: if you've bought a "compartment seat" ticket, be sure to go on an empty stomach! And arrive early! Once you get to the high-speed rail station, there are countless delicious foods waiting for you to enjoy!
Seeing Lord Wang, the first among them to have been to the "Fairyland," give such practical advice, is truly inspiring.
Some group members were pleased to find that they had indeed bought a compartment seat after checking their tickets...
Wow! We can eat as much as we want right there? And it's free? That means we can even skip breakfast! How wonderful!
