The modern me and the Republic of China her

Chapter 157
He Shi'an's advice before leaving was like a hailstorm falling from the sky, smashing Gu Qilan, who was immersed in simple and small happiness, to the point where he couldn't find his way.

Principal Qin treated him well. He has always been very grateful, and he wanted to thank her well after passing the exam before leaving here.

Public affairs and private affairs are really different: I never thought that she would have a nephew...

Gu Qilan felt that it was necessary to change his thinking to accept the sudden change.

Lin Mi's engagement was full of twists and turns.

First, the trip to Tianjin encountered robbers, which caused a lot of financial and human losses, so it was forced to postpone.

Then Lin Yitang made a mistake, and Mrs. Lin intentionally postponed it for another three months.

The banquets and wedding invitations that had been booked for the first two times were all voided.

It's hard to say what will happen the third time.

Just as Gu Qilan was flipping through the calendar on the wall every day, feeling helpless and sad about the approaching engagement, a mysterious boy suddenly appeared in the world.

He could trust Lin Mi.

If she wasn't sincere, how could she have liked a little schoolteacher who had no money, no house, and no power from the very beginning?
What he was worried about was the situation in the south and the future of the Lin family.

After the Revolution of [-], the South has been in a state of division.

In order to compete for territory, warlords, big and small, waged wars from time to time.

There are continuous wars on land, and even the naval forces are fighting back and forth.

As a result, Mr. Lin could not go home all year round, and he did not hesitate to force his nephew to serve in the military.

Gu Qilan and Mr. Lin had only communicated for one day.

He found that Lin Mi's father was only in his early forties, but his temples were stained with frost. Except for accompanying his wife, daughter and guests, he spent most of his time in the study.

Even though the door was closed, he could still hear Major General Lin sighing when he passed by several times.

That kind of sigh is a man's helplessness and reluctance to his wife and daughter, and it is also the pain and entanglement of a soldier standing firm in the struggle of dark forces.

Although the north is not so ideal, it is relatively more stable than the south, so Mr. Lin would rather endure the pain of being separated from his family for a long time, but also place his wife and daughter here.

Gu Qilan returned to the dormitory sadly, took the puppy to dinner, and reviewed in the room as usual.

When a person has concerns in his heart, he cannot sit down and read a book under the lamp.

Whenever the wind blew the calendar on the wall, he would look up for a moment.

Looking at the gradually darkening sky, he became more and more worried about Lin Mi, so he rode his bicycle in the direction of her house.

It was windy at night and the temperature dropped.

He was wearing gloves, and the white gas he breathed out along the way was clearly visible, and he kept his eyes on the road under the wheels.

I always stepped on the car carefully, avoiding countless icy puddles and unfriendly iron nails, glass shards, and broken porcelain.

Wenmo Road has finally arrived.

The small white building and the light gray wall in my memory are foggy, like a layer of frost, and it is no longer the appearance of the garden full of flowers in early autumn.

Although Lin's house is not far from Mr. Zhang's house, he is very self-conscious and has never been there since he left that night in September.

Even if Mrs. Lin sincerely invited her at the hospital, he never came to the door.

The Lin family already had a lot of problems, and the kind-hearted Gu Qilan didn't want to add to the chaos.

This time, he came here specially for Lin Mi, and wanted to find out what happened between her and Principal Qin's nephew.

He wasn't jealous, but worried that Lin Yitang would cause trouble if he found out.

Whether there is a misunderstanding or not, with Young Master Lin's cold-blooded and tough style, that boy will definitely be in big trouble.

Therefore, Gu Qilan planned to eliminate these hidden dangers one by one while they were still in their infancy.

No matter who Lin Mi goes with, he doesn't want her to be stimulated or hurt in the slightest.

He had just rode to a place less than ten meters away from Lin's house, and was about to find a convenient place to park when he heard a burst of chaotic footsteps.

There is also a middle-aged man shouting: "Hand up the gun, don't let it go without order!"

Gu Qilan's body trembled suddenly.

This voice is too familiar, and I don't want to meet it again——

Sergeant Liu and the others actually appeared near Lin's house, which caught him off guard.

Could it be that he accidentally left a clue on the day in Houhai, and the police followed the clues to find this place?
He remembered that Lin Mi had said that he had lost a handkerchief on board.

There was a villain underwater who was killed by him and Mr. Lin. Apart from the dagger marks on his body, his pen was stuck in his temple.

Instead of running away, he hid behind a tree by the side of the road and watched the police.

And Sergeant Liu also behaved incomprehensibly: standing alone in front of the streetlight facing the door, listening to the guards on guard, and letting the rest of the people stay away.

With the level of solving crimes back then, and without DNA identification technology, Gu Qilan felt that it was impossible to do it in a short time.

When the group of policemen retreated, he followed them on a bicycle from a distance, trying to figure out what they were going to do.

For the safety of his sweetheart, the young man who escaped from death unknowingly put his life and safety behind him.

This time the follow-up has achieved a lot.

Gu Qilan saw with his own eyes that missing person notices stamped by the police station were posted on many telephone poles in the downtown area.

Some of the portraits on the notices caught his attention.

No matter from which angle you look at it, it feels extremely familiar.

Taking advantage of no one's attention, he quickly reached out and tore off one to take a look at.

After reading it, I was so nervous that I could hear my heartbeat: the painting was not someone else, it was his real self more than two months ago.

At that time, Zhu Juanjuan saw him running away from home, and impatiently drew a portrait and took it to the police station to report the case.

Originally Director Qin accepted the third wife's request and has been secretly looking for someone, but he is suffering from not having the third wife's appearance information at hand.

Sergeant Liu regards the portrait left by Zhu Juanjuan as the latest reliable information, so he copied many of them and made them into missing person notices and posted them everywhere.

Under the activities of online people, Gu Qilan's whereabouts were quickly caught, and a large net was set up near the bookstore he frequented. If he hadn't met Lin Mi and his father boating in Houhai, he would have been arrested.

Looking at the portrait that almost brought him a catastrophe, he had mixed feelings.

Compared with that time now, he has grown nearly ten centimeters taller.

The cheeks have lost a lot of weight due to long-term hard work and staying up late to study.

The hairstyle also changed.I didn't have time to go to the barber shop, so I cut it short in front of the mirror.

The biggest change is the temperament from the inside out: the childishness has completely faded away, replaced by tenacity and forbearance.

He took out his dagger, scratched all the nearby portraits, and disappeared into the night.

After Lin Mi returned to the room after taking a shower, the first thing he did was to check the necklace hidden in the drawer.

She only wanted to keep Qin Feng's things from being discovered by the family, but she didn't notice that her mother had quietly moved the dressing box in front of the mirror.

In the bedroom separated by a wall, Mrs. Lin was admiring the ring with a magnifying glass under the lamp.

A peony flower is carved in the middle of the small ring, and the center of the flower is a clear gemstone.

"The texture and workmanship are absolutely amazing."

She tried to put the ring on her finger, but she couldn't put it on no matter what: Qin Feng specially asked a jeweler to adjust the ring ring based on his firm memory of holding Lin Mi's finger.

　Good evening, my dears. I stepped on the spot last night and accidentally wrote the chapter name wrong. I hereby apologize.Huanhuan never dared to step on any more!I wish you all a happy day, bring an umbrella during thunderstorms, and be careful of the water splashed by buses, cars and uncivilized people on the road.
