Lin Meng was so surprised that she was speechless, but Gu Changyan actually smiled foolishly.
"What's wrong? Miss Lin, do you think I don't look like a Kyoto person?"
Gu Changyan’s words made Lin Meng feel a little embarrassed, and she quickly shook her head.
"No, no, that's not what I meant."
Lin Meng didn't expect that this man was actually a high-ranking person. Then why did he come back to a small place like Taohua Town?
It's really puzzling.
Seeing that Lin Meng felt a little embarrassed, Gu Changyan didn't keep her in suspense anymore.
"Are you curious about why I came to Taohua Town?"
Gu Changyan did not look at Lin Meng, but instead looked up at the sky, as if asking himself a question.
After saying this, before Lin Meng could answer, he started talking to himself.
"I came here on my own initiative."
Lin Meng became even more curious after hearing this. Taking advantage of Gu Changyan's pause, she couldn't help but ask:
"Why? Doesn't everyone yearn for that noble world? It's strange that you volunteered."
Lin Meng murmured in her heart that the original owner was just in love and went to Taolin Village, so what she gave up was really nothing compared to Gu Changyan.
The original owner at least once gained self-righteous love, but the good days that Gu Changyan had in the upper-level world were beyond the imagination of these low-level people.
Fine clothes, delicious food, fine wine and delicious food, luxury cars and beautiful women, whatever you want.
Gu Changyan was stunned for a moment, then said with a smile:
"Of course it's to meet you, Miss Lin!"
He answered in a frivolous manner, and Lin Meng's exclamation was instantly ruined by him.
"Uh... you made fun of me. I don't want to bother with you anymore!"
Lin Meng suppressed her unhappiness and quickly left the back garden.
Outside the county government office, a man seemed to be observing something suspiciously.
At night, everyone had dinner and prepared to rest. Si Niang was weak and could not get out of bed.
But it's not easy for Zhou Fugui, a grown man, to take care of Si Niang's daily life all the time. After all, the two of them are not in a legitimate relationship.
Gu Changyan sent several maids to take turns serving Si Niang, which made Zhou Fugui feel more at ease.
After Si Niang woke up, Zhou Fugui went to see Gu Changyan alone.
After experiencing this life and death situation, he realized that he had done many bad things in the past and should be punished.
However, Si Niang had just woken up, and in order to make her feel better, Zhou Fugui found Gu Changyan and begged him to spend more time with Si Niang.
Gu Changyan had never seen such an affectionate man before, and seeing that he had been performing well recently, she made an exception and granted his request.
The two had a very pleasant conversation and felt that they had met a kindred spirit.
Lin Meng didn't eat much at night, she was still worried about Lin Changan.
Although the two are not related by blood, and the old man's previous attitude was very annoying, he is the father of the original owner after all, so he cannot be too ruthless.
She lay in bed recalling what had happened recently. It seemed as if time passed very quickly and so much time had passed in the blink of an eye.
Thinking back to when I first came to the Lin family to meet my parents, it seems like it happened yesterday. It is still vivid in my mind.
Thinking of this, Lin Meng suddenly remembered something.
The county government is now heavily protected, and I don’t know how the Lin family is doing.
Because Si Niang poisoned Xiao Baoer and he almost lost his life, the Lin family's herbal medicine shop was forced to close.
Now that the matter is clear, the business should be able to resume.
Thinking of this, Lin Meng decided to shamelessly go to Gu Changyan again. After all, as the local official, with Gu Changyan's testimony, the Lin family's herbal medicine shop would be able to resume business in no time.
She thought about what she was going to say to Gu Changyan, rehearsed it several times in advance, and then stood up and prepared to leave.
The light in Gu Changyan's study was still on. She looked at him from a distance, then hesitated when she got closer.
Thinking of his disdain just now, Lin Meng realized that his attitude was a bit arrogant.
This man is an official after all, and it would be inappropriate to offend him.
Just as she was hesitating, she saw the light in the study go out, and she immediately turned sideways and hid behind a pillar.
Following the moonlight, Lin Meng secretly looked towards the study.
Gu Changyan walked out of the door slowly. He looked around and flicked his fingers lightly, and a carrier pigeon appeared in front of him.
The carrier pigeon seemed to understand what was said and landed on Gu Changyan's shoulder.
"Writing a letter and sending it by carrier pigeon in the middle of the night, and being so sneaky, is there some secret you can't tell anyone?"
Lin Meng thought secretly in her heart, she didn't dare to make a sound at all.
Just as she was watching intently, she saw Gu Changyan tie the letter to the leg of a carrier pigeon. After a while, the pigeon disappeared into the night sky.
Afterwards, Gu Changyan walked towards the front door. Lin Meng watched her go far away before slowly walking out.
Staring at the direction of his back, Lin Meng was puzzled.
There are so many subordinates in the county government. As a leader, he can just give orders to his subordinates if there is anything. What is hidden in this carrier pigeon?
Considering that his identity was mentioned during the day, Lin Meng became suspicious of Gu Changyan's identity.
Just as she was about to go back to her room, she heard Arong's voice.
A Rong took care of Lin Changan all day long. Maybe because Mr. Lin was injured too badly, he didn't even react at all.
He has lost his appetite for the past few days. If it weren't for the master saving Arong, Arong would have died in the wilderness long ago.
Lin Changan, for saving his life.
He was observing Lin Changan's situation as usual, and felt a little tired. While his eyes were slightly closed, Lin Changan actually made a movement.
A Rong hurried forward to check.
"Master! Master!"
As a man, A Rong is also an expert in kung fu with strong internal strength. His voice cuts through the sky in the silent night.
When Lin Meng heard A Rong's voice, she felt a little uneasy. She trotted to Lin Changan's room first.
Gu Changyan had just walked to the door when he heard a faint sound, so he turned around and went to the guest room.
In the guest room, Lin Changan opened his eyes slightly and hummed something in a low voice.
Ah Rong listened carefully and realized that what Master Lin was trying to say was: "Water..."
Seeing that the master finally showed some reaction, the usually taciturn Arong was also very excited.
Hearing A Rong's shout, Lin Meng broke into the room.
Unexpectedly, A Rong was feeding Lin Changan water.
"Dad? Arong, is my dad awake?"
A Rong nodded quickly and looked at Lin Changan.
Lin Changan just sipped his saliva and came back to consciousness.
His body felt like it was being bitten by ants. When Si Niang attacked him, he had already prepared himself to be killed, but he did not expect that he would survive.
When he opened his eyes, he saw A Rong beside him. Lin Changan felt dry mouth and extremely uncomfortable.
A Rong slowly helped Mr. Lin up and fed him a few sips.
Only then did he follow the sound and saw Lin Meng.
In just a few days, this old man went from being in great glory to becoming haggard and dozens of years older.
