"However, many businesses of the Xu family and the Rong family are linked together. If the Rong family collapses, the Xu family will also suffer heavy losses. After so many years, the Rong family may not have been wary."
Gong San opened the car door and joined their discussion.
It was a spacious car, but because of his arrival, it seemed a little crowded.
The three of them looked at Gong San together, with a bit of eager anticipation in their eyes.
Gong San suddenly felt a little embarrassed, turned his head unconsciously, and looked away from these people for a moment.
"Ahem, among the aristocratic families, no one completely trusts the other. The Xu family and the Rong family must know this better than anyone else. Therefore, if the Xu family wants to annex the Rong family, it may not be so smooth.
"
The relationship between the Xu Rong family must be complicated.
However, this matter is only established without the participation of other people. ??
if--
She turned her head and glanced at Zhu Yan. This guy had been a bit silent from the beginning.
She sighed in her heart, but after all, she still didn't say anything.
He nodded towards the third brother, who immediately showed a knowing expression.
As long as we find out who the master behind the Xu family is, many things will be much easier to handle.
The discussion has come to an end for now.
The closer he got to Yanxia Mountain, the more relaxed Zhu Yan became.
Presumably, he felt that getting along with Xiaobai and Xiaohu was much better than getting along with other people.
After parting ways with the traveling merchants, they quickly arrived at the foot of Yanxia Mountain.
The road up the mountain is relatively smooth except for the first section. Most of the way, you have to rely on your feet.
This time, just in case, Lin Mengya changed her appearance and dressed up like a man.
Even though they had only walked it once, she and Zhu Yan remembered this road.
It was already late at night when they arrived.
As a last resort, I had to rest temporarily at the foot of the mountain and wait until dawn tomorrow before going up the mountain again.
The warmth of the bonfire is not only the temperature, but more importantly, the light of the fire dispels the darkness in people's hearts and brings light.
Lin Mengya leaned in the carriage and stared at the firelight outside in trance.
"What are you thinking about?"
Gong Si handed her the roasted chicken legs that Zhu Yan and Gong Wu had just beaten in the woods.
I don't know how they did it, but what surprised Lin Mengya even more was how Zhu Yan was willing to mix with Gong Wu.
Sure enough, she really couldn't understand the friendship between men.
"It's nothing, I just felt a little surprised. When I first came here, I didn't expect that I would be involved in this kind of thing. I guess I was a little emotional, women are always a little emotional."
The chicken legs are very fragrant and whet your appetite.
< br> But longing for you is too painful, which always makes people feel heartbroken and sad.
If Zhu Yan hadn't brought him news, then she might have suffered in not being able to see each other, instead of having to remind herself all the time to avoid falling into the abyss of hopelessness.
"What do you think of Ma Beichen?"
Turning her head, Lin Mengya looked at Gong San doubtfully.
Why is it okay to ask about this person?
"It's okay, but this person is not as lazy as he shows. I think he is hiding his clumsiness."
"Yeah." Gong San nodded, seeming to agree with her statement.
"Big brother wants to bring you two together. However, if you don't want to, we won't force you. However, people from the Ma family are not sentimental people. They just do it as a last resort. If you take it into consideration
For us, that’s not necessary.”
The chicken drumstick in her mouth almost choked her to death.
Lin Mengya looked at the third brother of the Gong family and didn't know what to say.
"Third brother, have you misunderstood something? I don't have that intention towards Ma Beichen. Besides, I don't want to get married either."
I don’t know what the elder brother and the others were thinking. In short, Lin Mengya lost all her appetite when she thought about this kind of thing.
"But, these days you have always been depressed and forced to smile. Did we do something wrong to make you unhappy?"
Gong San asked this question a little cautiously, with a different kind of worry. Coming from the mouth of a man like him always made Lin Mengya feel itchy all over.
This style of painting is really not suitable for the brothers of the Gong family.
"I'm just thinking about something, it's not that serious. Okay, you go and have a good rest first. I'll go to the woods to get some fresh air."
"Do you want me to follow you?"
Lin Mengya jumped off the carriage neatly, waved her hand at him and said.
"It's okay. I won't go into the depths. I'll call you anytime if anything happens."
Gong San really wanted to follow, but Lin Mengya moved very quickly.
In a blink of an eye, he walked into the forest, but did not go deeper. He even waved to him.
The latter was stunned for a moment, and then he gave himself a moment of enlightenment.
He is really a pig head, Xiaoya is a girl
Oops, as expected, my sister and brother are just different!
Thinking this way, it was hard for him to look over there anymore.
Being alone in the dark forest, Lin Mengya actually didn't do it for the sake of showing off.
On the contrary, she just felt that it was quieter here, and now she just wanted to be quiet.
The aroma of the grass and trees is fresh and elegant, and the firelight in the distance is just a small dancing light spot.
She found a tree that grew sideways, leaned on it slantingly, and looked up at the stars in the sky.
Unknowingly, the chirping of cicadas became the best lullaby.
A touch of tiredness came over her, she shook her head, stood up and prepared to go back to sleep. ??
Unexpectedly, a strong arm wrapped around his waist.
Lin Mengya was shocked, the intensity obviously belonged to a man.
That's not right! She's obviously dressed up as a man, isn't she?
Subconsciously, he wanted to shout out, but another hand quickly covered his mouth.
Lin Mengya struggled desperately, her thoughts turning over and over again.
Who is it? Is it the Xu family or the Rong family? Or some other aristocratic family?
Do they want to harm themselves? How long have they been following them?
Will she resist, or will she take advantage of the situation?
"What's wrong? Xiaoya, are you still there?"
In the forest, Gong San's worried voice came in.
Lin Mengya just wanted to make some more noise to attract him, but her hands quietly retreated.
She turned around immediately, but there were many shadows in the forest, and there was no sign of anyone else.
But the heat and strength of the human man around her waist were still very obvious. Lin Mengya touched the mouth that was covered just now.
No! No! It’s him! It’s him!
"Where are you? You came here too, right? Answer me, where are you?"
Although they had been separated for a whole year, how could she forget what was engraved in her bones and deep in her soul?
She has the Shen Nong System, and she will be on guard against anyone approaching.
Only him, only him!
Because she was so familiar with him, her normally sensitive senses began to dull.
"Come out! Come out! Come out and see me!"
Tears welled up in her eyes. She was like a drunken passerby, rushing towards the dark forest aimlessly and risklessly.
Now, there is only one thought in her mind.
He came! He was here! He hugged her!
"Xiaoya! It's dangerous there! Come back quickly!"
Behind her, Gong San's loud shouts could no longer reach her ears.
Lin Mengya tripped over vines, was scratched by branches, and was blocked by rocks.
But none of this could stop her from running forward.
I don't know how much time passed, and I don't know if the direction she was pursuing was correct. Her mind was no longer clear, and her eyes were blurred by tears.
"Long Tianyu, where are you! Can you come out and see me? I miss you so much."
This name, which had been tightly entangled with her since she returned to this time and space, now turned into a curse that drove her crazy.
She exhausted all her strength and lost her way in the woods, but she didn't feel the slightest regret.
Because, he is here.
"Come out! Come out! Where are you? Where are you?"
In the silent and deserted forest, she howled loudly.
I cried through this year’s longing, restlessness, waiting, and ecstasy.
If they hadn't separated, she wouldn't have known that he was so important to her.
In the past, he was the one who chased her footsteps. She thought she was as free and easy as the wind, but she didn't know that he was like the vast sea, pampering her everything.
Sitting on his knees in the forest, his mind was filled with the past between them.
Lin Mengya felt as if her heart had been completely grasped by someone, because in the moonlight cast by the forest, a figure, like a ghost, appeared in her sight.
She kept choking, like a little beast that failed to hunt, sitting on the ground, looking at the direction of her heart.
After a long time, she heard someone sighing softly.
"well"
She heard the long-lost voice that belonged to him.
She stretched out her arms, like a naughty child, and sat on the ground. Even though her tears had not stopped, she asked him to come and hug her as she had done countless times.
One step, two steps, his steps were hesitant for some reason, but as he got closer and closer to her, his steps were no longer steady, but he rushed in front of her with great urgency.
The person ran into his arms again.
Lin Mengya felt like the world was spinning for a while, and her whole body was trembling with excitement.
"I called you many times, why don't you come out to see me?"
She cried so hard that she couldn't breathe, and with a thick nasal voice, she questioned him in his arms.
"I, I have been following you. You ran too fast and I couldn't catch up."
He smiled slightly and responded in a low voice.
But his arms were tightened tightly, imprisoning the person in his arms.
"I miss you so much, do you know that?"
There was full grievance in her tone, but the complaint that had just been hidden in her heart had long since disappeared.
Her little hands grabbed his clothes hard, fearing that he would disappear from her eyes again.
"I know, I understand, I miss you."
This short sentence miraculously soothed her heart.
Lin Mengya shrank her body into a ball and nestled into his arms.
