520 Picking up garbage and marrying into a wealthy family

Muffled thunder.

It's a sign of rain.

On rainy days, if we stay in the mountains for too long, it is actually very dangerous for tiny humans to stay in the mountains without any protection.

The roads are slippery in rainy days, and it is easy to fall even on flat roads.

If you put it on the mountain and it slips, it is even more dangerous, because if you are not careful, you may slide all the way from the top of the mountain to the foot of the mountain, which is a rare situation.

Most of the others just slipped and fell into a pit.

Or you may not be able to control your acceleration, and you may not be able to hold on to the trees around you to stop yourself, and then you will slide directly to the bottom of the cliff, happily getting a one-way ticket to the underworld.

Not to mention, Xiang Huanian and Gu Lingyan were completely unprepared.

Um...it's Gu Lingyan.

"Is it going to rain soon? The air is getting humid..."

Xiang Huanian smelled the scent of soil before the rain and quickly lowered her head. While Gu Lingyan was looking at her with a "No way", she took out a delicate and small mini umbrella, slightly larger than a palm, from her bag.

"Luckily I brought an umbrella... I'll use it when it rains."

Xiang Huanian breathed a sigh of relief after confirming that he had brought an umbrella. He put the umbrella back on the top layer of his bag.

Gu Lingyan: “…” Quite impressive.

"Hmm? Why are you looking at me like that, Mr. Gu?"

Xiang Huanian looked up from his small shoulder bag and met Gu Lingyan's complicated gaze.

"……fine."

Gu Lingyan did not answer Xiang Huanian's doubts, but raised his warm big hands and gently touched Xiang Huanian's head, which was a little frizzy because he had just washed his hair yesterday, as if comforting a sensible but pitiful child.

"Since it's going to rain soon, let's finish looking at the trash cans and go back early."

"……OK."

Xiang Huanian was stunned by Gu Lingyan's sudden tenderness. Before he could react from his trance, he saw Gu Lingyan put the garbage bag in his hand on the ground. Then, he took two steps forward, no longer hesitated, and with quick and decisive movements, he took the tissue provided by Xiang Huanian and opened the lid of the trash can.

"..."

Gu Lingyan fell silent.

Xiang Huanian, sensing that something was not right, instantly came to his senses and wanted to step forward and ask what was in the trash can.

But as soon as Xiang Huanian moved his feet, Gu Lingyan closed the lid.

"Gu, sir?"

"...You're right. Let's call the police... I just took a quick look, and there are... more than two bodies inside..."

"!!!???"

What's inside?!

Is that what she was thinking??!

There were no flies flying around the trash can. Before, Gu Lingyan and Xiang Huanian both thought that the trash can should only contain some dried garbage...

Neither of them could have imagined that, at the foot of this mountaintop villa bustling with guests, in this village at the foot of the mountain with curling smoke from cooking fires, someone would be so bold as to dump a body here...

But if you think about it carefully, most of the guests at the top of the mountain will not be willing to go down the same way after leaving. Most of them will take helicopters. The villagers at the foot of the mountain probably shouldn't climb so high up, so as not to be discovered by the villa and driven away and fined.

Therefore, a natural no-man's land and corpse hiding place was formed here.

The most dangerous place, the most prosperous place and the place most easily discovered by others is the safest.

This truth remains unchanged throughout the ages.

Gu Lingyan returned to Xiang Huanian and asked him, who had not yet recovered from the shocking news:

"Do you have any disinfectant or alcohol pads in your bag?"

"Oh, oh, I have individually wrapped alcohol pads."

Xiang Huanian stepped forward, took his shoulder bag from Gu Lingyan's shoulder, handed the black cat to Gu Lingyan's other clean hand that had not touched the trash can, put the shoulder bag back on his shoulder, and began to search with both hands.

"Here, are three enough? I only brought three out."

"Two are enough. Please open one for me first."

"okay……"

After a sound of tearing packaging, Xiang Huanian handed the alcohol cotton pad inside to Gu Lingyan, and then threw the packaging bag of the alcohol cotton pad to the ground, into the garbage bag of empty cans.

Gu Lingyan took the alcohol cotton pad and handed the black cat back to Xiang Huanian. Then, he took the alcohol cotton pad and wiped his hands carefully from the nails to the base of the palms, making sure that every part was covered with alcohol.

After throwing the contaminated alcohol swab into the garbage bag on the ground, Gu Lingyan asked Xiang Huanian for a second alcohol swab.

After repeating this over and over again until his hands were filled with the pungent smell of alcohol, Gu Lingyan finally breathed a sigh of relief.

"Is this disinfection done?"

Xiang Huanian stared worriedly at Gu Lingyan's handsome hands, which had turned red after being rubbed hard by his owner.

"It's not enough. To be on the safe side, we still need iodine. There should be some in the villa. I'll just go back and take care of it. Don't worry."

Seeing that Xiang Huanian was worried and a little self-blame, she subconsciously raised her hand, wanting to touch Xiang Huanian's head to comfort her, but when she raised her hand and smelled the alcohol on it, she stopped in time.

It’s better to be careful and not touch the little girl before thoroughly disinfecting it.

"I'm sorry, Mr. Gu, it's all because of me..."

Xiang Huanian's bad habit came back, but before she could finish her frustrated and self-blaming words...

"Stop, don't say any more."

Gu Lingyan, who looked serious, stopped him in time.

"But……"

"It's not your fault. I was actually quite curious, so I opened it. I asked for it. And, thanks to your tissues and your thorough preparation, I was able to disinfect it in time and avoid being infected by unknown bacteria and viruses. I should be the one thanking you."

"..."

"It's inconvenient for me to touch you with my hands right now. If you apologize to me again, I'll kiss you once if you say it."

Suddenly.

Gu Lingyan threw a heavy bombshell at Xiang Huanian, who was still feeling guilty.

At the same time, Gu Lingyan put his hands behind his back, bent down, lowered his body, and with his unique aura, slightly intrusive, he moved closer to Xiang Huanian.

Xiang Huanian: “!!!”

As a conditioned reflex, Xiang Huanian covered his mouth and took two steps back.

"……Ah."

Xiang Huanian's cute and shy look was so adorable that Gu Lingyan couldn't help but laughed softly.

“Gu Lingyan!!!”

Xiang Huanian herself didn't realize that when she was overly emotional, she always couldn't help but call out Gu Lingyan's full name.

But after Xiang Huanian's accusation, the smile on Gu Lingyan's face became even more intense.

"...What about your phone call? If you're holding your phone now, do you have to disinfect it with iodine afterwards? Will you still be able to use it?"

Trying to divert both parties' attention to serious matters.
