Before Qin Jiayan even entered Gu Yusheng's villa, his mother was already urging him to hurry, as they had to get on the road.
Because the anonymous benefactor had stepped in to help the Qin family during their most challenging times, Qin Zhi'ai was also going along to thank the donor in person. Once Little Peanut had left to go stay at the Gu mansion, they were ready to go.
Their benefactor's name was Zhang Lin, and she lived in a village in the distant Beijing suburbs, which took them three hours to get to.
After arriving, they walked up to an old, shabby single-story bungalow. Qin Jiayan stood at the entrance and knocked on the door for some time before a voice on the other side said, "Who's there?"
Subsequently, the sound of footsteps approached the door. After 30 seconds of silence, they heard the door unlock and watched it open accompanied by a heavy creak.
