520 Picking up garbage and marrying into a wealthy family

"...I think I made her angry...But, it should work..."

Gu Lingyan thought back to what he had seen just now when Xiang Huanian walked in and turned sideways. He vaguely saw the little girl's red ears... He smiled knowingly, put his hands in his pockets, and walked towards his room.

------

Nothing happened all night.

The next morning, the rain had gradually subsided, and after Xiang Huanian and the others finished breakfast, the rain had almost stopped.

Then, Gu Lingyan received a call from plainclothes police, saying that they had arrived and were contacting the villa to prepare a spare room for them.

Then, considering safety factors and trying not to arouse suspicion from the people in the villa, Gu Lingyan and the others all stayed in Lin's father and mother's room after breakfast.

Of course, the plainclothes officers couldn't be so stupid as to say openly from the start that they wanted to live next to Gu Lingyan and the others. That would be the same as directly exposing the secret between the plainclothes officers and Gu Lingyan and the others.

According to the information passed to Gu Lingyan by the plainclothes officers, they were at the front desk. Because there were no vacant rooms, the front desk was calling every guest who had booked more than two rooms to ask if they could accept the proposal of adding a bed and reducing the room rate to free up a room.

But, at least the people who come here are not short of money. Who would be willing to save such a small amount of money and give a room to the plainclothes officers who have never met them...

So, the front desk kept calling and was rejected until the call reached Gu Lingyan, who had booked the last three rooms.

In order to avoid arousing suspicion at the front desk, Gu Lingyan's first reaction when he received the inquiry call was to refuse:

"I understand what those hikers went through, but..."

At this moment, according to her role, Mother Lin spoke at the right time, speaking in an extremely kind and saintly tone, stopping Gu Lingyan from saying no:

"Wait, wait a minute, it's not like we can't split up a room. You guys can have one room, and we can have one room for the girls. Besides, when we checked in, didn't the front desk say we were the last guests? If we all refused, wouldn't these young people have to rush down the mountain in this weather? That would be so pitiful... Besides, the room rate is half off, so it's a good deal..."

"Well... well, we'll leave the innermost room to them."

Gu Lingyan nodded silently at Lin's mother, as if to affirm her acting skills. Then, he pretended to be embarrassed but still listened to the advice of his elders and responded to the front desk.

After hanging up the phone, Gu Lingyan and Gu Shaoyu, who lived in the innermost room, started to pack their luggage. After all, if they looked completely packed when the front desk brought people up... it would be too suspicious.

"Then I'll pack my things and go to Yunchu and Niannian's room..."

Lin's mother also stood up and packed up her things in the room.

Father Lin, who had something to say but chose to keep his mouth shut, stood up silently and, with a little reluctance to share a room with Mother Lin, began to help Mother Lin pack her things.

"Dong dong."

"Please come in."

"Hello, thank you for your understanding. These are the four fellow travelers I mentioned earlier. Which room do you have available?"

The front desk staff led four hikers who were all wet, wearing professional jackets, carrying oversized backpacks and holding professional trekking poles in their hands, with skin tanned to a healthy wheat color, broad shoulders and narrow waists, and exuding masculinity, and appeared in front of Xiang Huanian and his friends.

I'm not bragging. These four men appear to be hikers in distress who need help, but they are actually plainclothes police officers who are secretly investigating the truth. No matter their figure or the aura they have when standing there, in the eyes of Xiang Huanian, Lin Yunchu and Lin's mother, they are simply symbols of overflowing male hormones.

The stars in the eyes of the three of them were about to turn into reality.

Seeing this, the front desk staff was not confused. When she first saw these four hikers, she had a similar reaction to Xiang Huanian and the others.

but……

"Didn't I just tell you? Over there, look, they're sorting..."

Unable to bear it any longer, Lin's father walked forward, blocked Lin's mother's sight, and pointed the direction of Gu Lingyan and Gu Shaoyu's room to the people at the door.

At this time, a fellow traveler with a slightly more festive look came out from the group, took Lin's father's hand, and said to him with tears of gratitude:

"Uncle, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, we would have to sleep outdoors again. In this weather, the soil on the mountain is slippery and the steps are difficult to walk on. If it weren't for your generosity, we really don't know what to do..."

Father Lin: “…” Not really.

No, since the other party had said so, the discomfort in Father Lin's heart turned into a sigh. He patted the young plainclothes officer on the shoulder and comforted him:

"Alright, hurry up and check in your rooms. The sooner you clean up, the more rest you can get. You look so worn out, you must be tired. If you have anything to say, we can talk about it after you've rested..."

Then, these four hikers moved into the villa without arousing anyone's suspicion.

No one noticed that when they turned around and walked towards Gu Lingyan and Gu Shaoyu's room, the plainclothes officer standing at the end of the line with a cold and solemn expression looked inside the room and paused for a moment on Xiang Huanian's face.

In fact, if Xiang Huanian looked more carefully, he would find that this person was Captain Xing who had abducted the fraudster uncle in the hot pot restaurant last time.

The Chinese people have an indescribable and mysterious trust and admiration for the police.

After the four plainclothes officers settled down, Xiang Huanian and the others relaxed a lot of their slightly nervous minds.

Then, after the four plainclothes officers rested, it was noon and the rain had completely stopped. They knocked on the door of Gu Lingyan's room, carrying baskets to conceal their destination and light equipment on their backs, and said that as a thank you, they invited them all to go mushroom picking.

It was an implicit invitation for Gu Lingyan and the others to lead the way, and Gu Lingyan and the others naturally would not refuse.

Originally, considering the seriousness of the scene and safety factors, Gu Lingyan just wanted to go alone.

But as soon as he proposed it, everyone rejected it.

"No, brother, it's too dangerous for you to go alone..."

"No, it's too obvious if you're alone. Or if we're all together, maybe we can cover it up a little bit..."

"No, only if we all go there will people believe we're really going mushroom picking..."

"Yeah, yeah, my parents are right."

"No, I want to go too!"

So, the final result was that everyone was out except for three small animals that were not waterproof or mud-proof.
