The modern me and the Republic of China her

Chapter 470 Please tell me the truth

When the curtain lace was mentioned, the boy who jumped off the building and fled couldn't help but blush quietly.

The lad is sincere.

It is very disturbing to let others take responsibility for their own mistakes.

"The curtains were obviously broken by me in a hurry, but it was Qin Feng who was responsible. Don't work too hard on this guy, I have to find a tailor to help Miss Xiaomei fix it."

He couldn't hold the teacup steady, and the water that he didn't drink in time overflowed the rim of the cup.

"Xiaolan, here is a towel, wipe your hands."

Qilan came back to his senses and saw that both hands were wet.

I had no choice but to put the cup away, thank you with an embarrassed smile, and took the towel handed over by Mama Shi.

A pair of clear eyes stared at the stairs.

See the end at a glance.The bedroom door has been replaced with a new lock, and it is tightly closed in broad daylight.

The second floor is clean enough.

After all, there is only one old servant in the house, and he rarely goes upstairs downstairs.Can't be bothered.

If it is a normal afternoon nap, there is no need to lock the door at all.

He guessed right.

Xiaomei sat on the bed with her head leaning on the pillow, silent.

Relying on this door, separate yourself from the outside world.

As soon as Qilan and the others entered the room, she woke up, put on her clothes and listened quietly behind the door.

"Didn't Wenxuan leave? Could it be that there was an accident and he didn't leave the city?"

"Xiaolan and the others are here, there must be something wrong. After all, the one who should come can't be avoided."

From time to time conversations in the living room were carried upstairs.

"Isn't that young man at the police station... quite tall? He didn't give you any trouble, did he?"

"That young man is so tall and powerful! We don't know when he sneaked upstairs. He hid in the bedroom without making a sound, and even pulled the rope and broke the lamp."

When Shi Ma said this, she looked at Qilan in fear, "We were all afraid that he would find you. Unexpectedly, the wife was stabbed as soon as the door was opened! Later, the dean immediately called the police—"

Zhang Wenxuan's heart skipped a beat, his eyes widened, and he asked anxiously:
"He actually hurt the dean's wife? Was he arrested on the spot?"

"I didn't get caught, so I ran away too." Shi Ma smiled, "Thanks to my being careful to hide his ID, otherwise the police found him, and he would have to go to jail!"

After speaking, she took out a small book from her apron and handed it to them.

"Why do you want to help him hide it?"

"One must know how to repay kindness in one's life. If he hadn't stayed with us that night to take care of Xiaomei, he wouldn't have met the dean and his wife."

"So you didn't give this thing to those people in the police station for the sake of his help?"

"Yes. If it wasn't for my wife being hospitalized, Xiaomei would have to go on a blind date today. Hey, I don't know how the character of the marriage partner is. Will she be bullied if she marries? I always feel that the dean's wife is a weasel. Rooster greetings for the New Year will not introduce good people."

Then, Mama Shi went on and on and on, the wife of the dean is not in danger of her life at the moment, and it will take about a month to recuperate from her injuries. It is rare to have at least [-] days of quiet life.

Everyone sitting on the sofa listened attentively to her story.Until there was a slight sound of slippers on the wooden stairs.

With sharp eyes, Qilan was the first to see it.

"Xiaomei, did you take a nap?"

"I'm very happy that you can come to see me."

Xiaomei walked down the stairs slowly, smiling happily at them.

He wore a thick white wool coat and an orange velvet skirt.The pace is not fast, but steady.

Zhang Wenxuan carefully observed her complexion, her cheeks were not as pale as before, and her cough was much better.

"Mother Shi, let me sit with the guests. It's hard work for you to go to the kitchen to cook. Let's have steamed fish and stewed bacon with dried bamboo shoots for lunch."

Seeing Xiaomei walking in front of the sofa, Xiaojin, who seldom comes to visit, didn't know what to say after saying hello.

Fortunately, Chen Xing reacted quickly, and moved his butt to make room:
"Miss Jin, sit here, I'm going to the kitchen to learn how to cook fish."

"Oh, I don't know how to cook, so I'm going to learn."

They hurriedly followed Mama Shi, as if they had come all the way to learn how to cook.

The kitchen was suddenly crowded and lively.

The pots and pans were ringing non-stop.

Xiao Jin guarded the stove and threw firewood into it.Chen Xing was busy helping Mama Shi, washing and chopping vegetables.

The fire is burning.The hot air in the pot also floated out.

Qilan smelled the aroma of steamed fish, secretly regretting it.

"I'm the one who really wants to learn how to cook fish. These two are good, and they fill up the space in the kitchen at once."

Xiaomei hesitated for a while, then walked around from behind the sofa to Qilan's side with her head down, rolled up her skirt, and sat down.

She turned her head and looked at Zhang Wenxuan with both the joy of reuniting after a long absence and the sadness of leaving him without saying goodbye.

She and the person she loved so much were looking at each other wordlessly, separated by a boy.

The expected scene did not appear.

Unknowingly, the boy was surrounded by a suffocating silence.

"I'd better stay with them. Sister Yuexian and Sister Xiaomei treated me very well, they all love Brother Wenxuan, hey."

Thanks to the lack of crowded kitchen just now.

It is best to stay here as friends who are familiar with each other.At least not to embarrass the two people who are bitter in their hearts.

He was still rejoicing that his decision was very wise, when the weak and beautiful woman beside him suddenly changed his tone:

"Brother Zhang, where are your glasses? There are injuries on your face and hands?! Who hit you?!"

"I fell on the road."

Zhang Wenxuan rarely lied, his expression was stiff and his eyes were dull.

The scene of being tied up and thrown into the cellar by Tang Yuexian's father and beaten again came to mind.

Xiaomei stared at him fixedly.

Tears glistened in the black eyes.

"Please tell me the truth! Police Chief Liu and the others took you away last month, and they also knocked off your glasses, and your body was covered in bruises."

"Miss Xiaomei, listen to me." Qilan was afraid that she would cough again when she became agitated, so she quickly changed the subject:
"Brother Wenxuan was arrested by a group of kidnappers and he needed to exchange money. Fortunately, a few of us passed by and rescued him. The glasses can be remade if they are broken, and there is no problem with applying medicine to the wound. You are just recovering from a serious illness, don't worry. .”

The young man concealed half of the truth, worrying that his lack of control would give birth to a moth.

"Xiaolan is telling the truth. I really didn't know that I was an unlucky 'sweet potato'. I was caught in a sack when I walked on the street."

Xiaomei is worried.He looked at Qilan carefully again.

Hair is messy.The clothes and pants on the body were also stained with a lot of dust and mud.

The lad was always neat and tidy.

Only when he fights or kills an enemy does he become sloppy.

In this way, she believed what they said, and her hanging heart was relieved.

"If you want to catch Brother Zhang for money, that's fine. I'm afraid there will be worse. I just got good news. The old fox surnamed Liu was beaten in the hospital the day before yesterday. Who is so nice? , Help us breathe a sigh of relief?"

Qilan tried her best to keep her mouth shut tightly, "Don't let her know that I did it. Otherwise, I won't be able to hide the matter of sneaking into Tang's house to find someone."
