Cannon fodder and female supporting role, a match made in heaven
Chapter 34 Awkwardness
Chu Yu went back to his room with a gloomy face and changed his clothes. Feeling that there was still some smell on his body, he took another bath. After doing all this, he lay back on the bed and prepared to go to sleep.
Less than an incense stick of time after closing his eyes, he stood up and pushed open Shen Zhaozhao's door.
The next morning, the sun rose high.
"Boom boom boom——"
"Boom boom boom——"
There were several knocks on the door and Chu Yu was awakened. When he opened his eyes, he saw Shen Zhaozhao's peaceful sleeping face.
Chu Yu rubbed his eyebrows lazily. When did he lie down on the bed?
Shen Zhaozhao vomited several times last night. Perhaps she was feeling too uncomfortable. She kept sobbing softly. Her pitiful appearance made him stay for some unknown reason.
She slept soundly, but she made him spend half the night helping her clean up the mess.
Chu Yu opened the door in a depressed mood, and when he saw the person coming, his mood fell to the bottom.
Mingxi's eyes widened into two big circles, and he stood there in a daze as if he was stupid. After a while, he swallowed two or three times and asked weakly, "Excuse me, is Miss Shen Zhaozhao here?"
He stepped back and looked at the room, then stepped forward and craned his neck to look inside through the crack in the door.
He was not mistaken; this was Shen Zhaozhao's room. He seemed to see a bulge in the quilt on the bed, indicating that someone was lying on it.
He wanted to take a closer look, but Chu Yu blocked his view with his body without making a sound. He could not see anything and had to turn his attention back to look at Chu Yu.
"What do you want from her?" Chu Yu's expression was cold.
Mingxi was a little overwhelmed by his aura, and said in a low voice: "My master has something urgent to do with Miss Shen Zhaozhao."
"Oh." Chu Yu nodded, "She's too full. Let your parents come to see her another day!"
"Bang." A muffled sound.
Mingxi stared blankly at the door and touched his forehead with some fear. If he had jumped away a step later, his head would have been hit by the door and a big bump would have been left.
Miss Zhaozhao's brother has such a bad temper!
Moreover, why was Miss Zhaozhao's brother in her room so early in the morning?
Mingxi's eyes trembled slightly, as if he had discovered something incredible, and he ran as fast as he could. He had to tell his family everything he saw!
Shen Zhaozhao was awakened by the sound and sat up dazedly. Seeing Chu Yu still here with her, she asked, "Who were you talking to just now?"
Chu Yu lowered his eyes and glanced at her calmly: "Who else could it be? The guard of the person you had dinner with yesterday."
Shen Zhaozhao was stunned. Wasn't he the one having dinner with her?
and many more.
Guards, have dinner, isn't that Jiang Heng?
Yes, they made an appointment to meet Li Quan this morning.
So Chu Yu already knew that she was lying to him.
Shen Zhaozhao nervously lifted the quilt and got out of bed, but his steps were still a little weak and his body fell to the side uncontrollably, and was supported by Chu Yu in time.
She hurriedly said, "Thank you!"
Chu Yu's face darkened: "Where are you going?"
Time was running out, so Shen Zhaozhao quickly put on her clothes and replied while drawing her eyebrows: "I have something to go out for."
Chu Yu stared at her in the mirror and said with a half-smile, "Are you looking for Jiang Heng? I've already rejected you."
Shen Zhaozhao paused while drawing her eyebrows, slapped her eyebrow pencil on the table, and said angrily: "Why are you like this? Who told you to make decisions for others?"
Chu Yu looked at Shen Zhaozhao who was angry with him because of Jiang Heng, and an inexplicable anger ignited in his heart: "You are really being treated as a donkey's liver and lungs with your kindness, do whatever you want!"
He was so angry that he didn't want to see Shen Zhaozhao anymore, so he turned and left.
"Wait a moment." Shen Zhaozhao called out to him.
Chu Yu paused and looked back at her.
"Give me back the cloak you were wearing yesterday."
Chu Yu's eyes, which originally contained a hint of expectation, suddenly turned extremely cold. He returned to his room without stopping. When he saw the cloak hanging on the shelf, he became furious again and wanted to burn it.
After a moment, he calmed down and realized that it was not necessary.
There was really no need for him to get emotionally involved because of Shen Zhaozhao.
After throwing the cloak back to Shen Zhaozhao, he slammed the door and walked out.
She can meet whoever she wants, it has nothing to do with him anyway.
After Shen Zhaozhao had packed up everything, she came to the Mu Mansion. She asked the servant at the door to go in and tell the message, and she waited at the door herself.
"Girl, have you changed your mind and come to see me?"
When Shen Zhaozhao heard the voice and turned around, she saw the rich young man Mu Yang wearing a brocade robe inlaid with gems and jades. He ostentatiously opened the Langlang Qiankun fan and fanned her.
She felt a chill on her scalp from being slapped, and her whole body felt chilly.
Brother, do you want to see what season it is now?
"I'm sorry, I won't look for you."
Mu Yang threw the fan away and put his hands in front of his chest, looking heartbroken: "Girl, you are so cruel, how can you trample on my sincerity at will!"
Seeing passers-by looking at them, he quickly bent down to pick up the fan and fanned himself: "Miss, if you are not looking for me, why did you appear in my Mu Mansion? Are you trying to seduce me on purpose? You are so vicious, girl!"
As he said this, he wiped away non-existent tears with his sleeves.
Shen Zhaozhao: “…” This guy must be a drama queen, he acts so much all day long.
"Miss Zhao Zhao!" Jiang Heng appeared in time to save her, otherwise she would have been so embarrassed that she would have to pick her feet.
"Miss Zhao Zhao, I didn't expect you to come today. I couldn't believe it when the servant told me." A warm smile appeared on Jiang Heng's lips.
Shen Zhaozhao raised a bright smile: "Since I have already promised you yesterday, of course I must keep my word."
As she said this, she thought of Chu Yu again.
She also promised to have dinner with him, but she forgot, and Chu Yu took care of her all night last night, she knew all this.
I shouldn't have lost my temper with him today. I should go back and apologize to him! Shen Zhaozhao thought secretly.
Mu Yang, who was standing by, saw the two of them talking back and forth, completely ignoring him, and was extremely angry.
He slammed the fan again and said, "You two, if you want to talk about love, go far away and don't get in my way here!"
Shen Zhaozhao was thinking about how to apologize to Chu Yu in the evening when she was startled by the sound of a fan falling to the ground.
She glanced at the fan on the ground. The jade inlaid on it had many scratches, and it looked like it had been dropped on the ground countless times.
It's a pity to lose such a good fan.
Jiang Heng said to her gently: "Let's go!"
Shen Zhaozhao nodded, returned the cloak to Jiang Heng, and followed him into the carriage, leaving Mu Yang standing dumbfounded in front of the Mu Mansion.
Are you really leaving?
In the carriage, Jiang Heng looked at Shen Zhaozhao with concern and found that she looked a little pale. He asked softly, "Miss Zhaozhao, are you feeling unwell?"
Shen Zhaozhao waved his hand: "It's okay, I just ate too much last night, I'm fine now."
Jiang Heng nodded. No wonder Mingxi told him that Miss Zhaozhao was too full.
Thinking of Mingxi's words, his mind was in a mess. What was the relationship between Miss Zhaozhao and her brother? Why was her brother in her room early in the morning? Also, why was Miss Zhaozhao's last name Shen, but her brother's last name was not Shen?
He had so many questions, but he didn't ask them in the end.
After meeting Li Quan, Jiang Heng realized that the prefect of Leyang County had not put the disaster relief funds into practice over the years, and had never even provided porridge to relieve hunger.
This was much worse than he had imagined, and his uncle was involved.
My uncle Mu Chunrong is the richest man in Guangyang County. His business has been growing bigger and bigger over the years. The county magistrate of Leyang County invested all the embezzled disaster relief funds in him. Then he took advantage of his position as county magistrate to cheat and commit crimes. The two of them colluded with each other and made no idea how much ill-gotten gains.
Most people may not be aware of these inside stories, but Qin Tian, the leader of Qingfeng Village, was originally the manager of the Mu Mansion shop. He knows all these things, so Mu Chunrong wants to get rid of him.
Jiang Heng secretly thanked his lucky stars that he did not tell his uncle the real purpose of his return, otherwise the truth of the case might not have been revealed.
