After hearing what the tailor said, Meng Qitong frowned slightly, while Lu Zhao took the lead and asked the other party who had asked about his grandfather back then.

"The dance hall closed in 1997. I was still young and followed my grandfather and occasionally heard him mention it." The tailor squinted his eyes and looked out the window: "But as my grandfather, I couldn't enter the dance hall at that time. I guess he should have inquired about the news with the bodyguard at the door."

The tailor was a little uncertain. After all, his grandfather had passed away long ago and could not prove it to him now. He only knew so much. His grandfather rarely mentioned the matter back then. In addition, the time span was long, even if Lu Zhao asked, the other party could not answer it.

Lu Zhao looked at Meng Qitong and knew it. If it was really like the tailor said, then it seemed that Meng Qitong's death was indeed the cause of the forces behind the dance hall. The most suspected one was the founder Zhao Chongzong. If it were not for his instructions, how could the dance hall cover up the truth about the death of a popular dancer?

The temperature around suddenly dropped a lot, and even the tailor rubbed his arms, saying to himself why the room was as cold as if the air conditioner was turned on.

Although Meng Qitong still looked expressionless, Lu Zhao could sense the ups and downs of her emotions.

She didn't say anything else, turned around and pushed the door and left the store.

"Sorry, she knew about her grandmother's affairs and felt a little sad..." Lu Zhao explained a few hurriedly, but the tailor expressed his understanding.

Lu Zhao subconsciously chased after her, but she did not see Meng Qitong. The ring was as quiet as a pool of stagnant water, without any reaction.

Where has she gone?

Lu Zhao was a little anxious. He kept looking around. Although he knew that the other party was not a human and had limited time and scope of activity, for some reason, he still couldn't help but worry about her.

Lu Zhao guessed that Meng Qitong might have returned to the shopping center. She just planned to go over and take a look, but who knew that the owner also chased her out.

The asphalt road was churning with heat waves. Looking around, it looked like a sea with silver light. The crowded buses and cars formed the skeleton of the city.

The bustling crowds on both sides of the road kept passing by Meng Qitong. The place in front of him was so familiar, but also so strange.

A red double-decker bus stopped on the street, but it was the same as fifty years ago and had no change. In the past, I often took such a car to work in the dance hall.

Two fashionable girls walked towards Meng Qitong with their hands in hand, talking and laughing.

Seeing that they were about to run into each other, the two had no intention of avoiding it. The next second, the girls passed through Meng Qitong's body.

Meng Qitong slowly turned around, looked down at her hand that had become transparent, and her eyes dimmed a little.

From afar, Lu Zhao saw her.

Under the scorching sun, Meng Qitong, wearing a red dress, stood quietly. People were coming and going, and traffic was endless. But in the middle of the bustling city, she seemed particularly lonely.

At that moment, Lu Zhao empathized with Meng Qitong. Since his brother passed away four years ago, isn’t it the same for me?

"Do you want to go to the shopping center to have a look?" After adjusting his emotions, Lu Zhao walked forward and asked her.

"No need, I'm a little tired." Because the body is still in the building, although Meng Qitong can leave with Lu Zhao for the time being, it is not enough to last for too long.

"Okay. Do you want to take that bus? It's too hot and I don't want to walk back." Lu Zhao discovered just now that Meng Qitong was looking at it.

Although half a century has passed, Hong Kong still retains old-fashioned transportation such as double-decker buses and has become a major feature of the city.

Meng Qitong has lost her memory of the past, and the people related to it have long been no longer in this world.

If I were trapped for more than 50 years, I would feel like I was a different life. Perhaps for Meng Qitong, these two buses would remind her that she had truly lived on this land.

After boarding the bus, Meng Qitong leaned against the window and quietly looked at the street scene outside. Although her figure became lighter than before, and her tiredness was hard to hide, she was still stubborn and unwilling to return to the ring.

"This is for you." Lu Zhao handed her the bag he had been holding. The inside was the cheongsam displayed in the window of the tailor's shop.

"The owner is a reasonable person. He thought you were a descendant of Qimeng. He didn't accept any money and said that it was his grandfather's intention. Although it was not good to deceive others, it was indeed your thing." Lu Zhao smiled and said, "This plain look seems to be more suitable for you."

"Thank you." Meng Qitong looked at Lu Zhao and spoke solemnly. She saw everything the other party did for her along the way.

"You are really very similar to Lu Jie. You are as careful and kind. Because of you, I remembered some not-so-bad past. I feel at ease with you by my side." Meng Qitong's lips raised slightly and she showed a faint smile: "Can you sit with me for a while? I want to see what it is like outside."

"Okay." Lu Zhao agreed to the other party and said nothing to disturb Meng Qitong. The bus drove slowly along the street, reminding him of when he first came to Hong Kong.

After a while, Meng Qitong's power seemed to have reached its limit and returned to the ring in a sleepy state.

When Meng Qitong disappeared, the sunlight outside the window penetrated her hazy face and fell softly on her shoulders. Lu Zhao stared at her shoulders in a daze, and she was stunned.

Instead of getting off the bus, he sat quietly alone, letting the bus continue to drive forward, wandering aimlessly on the streets of the city.

The feeling of bathing in the sun was warm and comfortable. Perhaps because of Meng Qitong's influence, Lu Zhao felt a little tired. He leaned against the car window and before he knew it, he fell asleep like this.

When he was awakened by his phone, he found that the sky was getting darker outside the window, and neon lights flashed on the streets. Before he knew it, the day passed.

In the past, Lu Zhao would definitely not have wasted his precious time on such things. But when he really relaxed from his tense state, he realized that how to live the rest of his life was actually entirely up to him.

The phone call was from Gu Yunsheng. Thinking of the agreement with the other party, Lu Zhao quickly got out of the car and rushed to the restaurant.

The restaurant is not far from the campus of the University of Hong Kong Medical College. Gu Yunsheng studied at the Department of Medicine of the University of Hong Kong, and this university is the oldest higher education institution in Hong Kong. It is usually considered one of the most prestigious universities in Asia and is known as the "Ivy" in Asia.

Gu Yunsheng, who can get into the exam here, is naturally a well-deserved academic master.

As Gu Yunsheng said, more than half of the people in line at the entrance of the restaurant were students from the Medical College of Hong Kong University.

Lu Zhao stood outside the door and looked at the time: it was already five o'clock. He was a little curious, why did Gu Yunsheng not arrive yet? At this moment, his phone received a new text message.

Gu Yunsheng told Lu Zhao that he had been halfway through the road and remembered that he accidentally left the information in the classroom and wanted to rush back to get it. If he had arrived first, he could enter the store to take a seat.

"This guy is still careless as always."

Lu Zhao smiled. Seeing that the time was approaching meal time and more and more people came to eat, he went into the restaurant first.

Meng Qitong was still dormant. After sitting down and ordering a drink, he had nothing to do and started playing with his cell phone, planning to wait until Gu Yunsheng got there before ordering food.
