The modern me and the Republic of China her

Chapter 206 Prelude to Disruption
The news of Gu Qilan's resignation from the school soon reached Mr. Zhang Lao.

Principal Qin repeatedly apologized on the phone, saying that his management was insufficient and his salary was not high, so he couldn't keep people.

When Zhang Wenxuan heard about this, he went to Tang Yuexian and confirmed that Qilan had been working overtime at the hotel these days.

The uncle and nephew thought that Qilan felt that the school's salary was low and life pressure was high, and they wanted to persuade him to live at home so that he could save some expenses.

In the morning, as soon as Zhu Juanjuan left, Zhang Wenxuan came to the hotel to visit his little brother during his out-of-hospital visit.

By the oven, Gu Qilan skillfully pushed in a large plate of butter biscuits to be baked, and sweat kept coming out under the high temperature.

He worked very hard and didn't want to rest at all, which made Zhang Wenxuan, who was watching by the door, sad.

"A good scholar actually takes physical labor as his main job...it's all forced by life."

He took out his handkerchief and strode in, shouting: "Xiaolan, take a break, don't work so hard. Yuexian can get full salary as long as you come twice a week."

When Qilan heard the shout, she turned her head and wiped off her sweat, took the handkerchief handed over, and smiled.

"Thank you, brother Wenxuan. I'm not short of money. I just want to... forget about her."

These words made Zhang Wenxuan's nose sore when he sent Lin Mi to school not long ago.

Early this morning, the office called and made an appointment to see young master Lin in the afternoon.

He also read the newspaper that published the wedding banquet notice.

Zhang Wenxuan originally wanted to keep Qilan a secret, but keeping in the dark might hurt more.

"Xiao Lan, Miss Lin is holding a wedding banquet here the day after tomorrow. You can ask for leave and rest."

Qilan's expression was unexpectedly calm.

"Oh, it's all right. I do my work and she does hers."

The tone is also very kind, as if he really stays out of the matter.

He looked intently at the clock on the wall, pinching the time and waiting for the scent of the biscuits to come out before taking them out.

Zhang Wenxuan silently accompanied him to finish the biscuits in hand and looked at his watch, it was almost time to leave.

"Brother, I have to go to Lin's house for a visit. Do you need to bring a message to Miss Lin?"

Qilan's shoulders shook slightly.

He took a brand new box, put the freshly baked biscuits neatly one by one, and neatly tied a bow.

"Please give it to Lin Mi. She likes buttery snacks. This one is healthier than the ones sold outside."

Zhang Wenxuan took the box, "Only send biscuits, no words?"

Qilan shook her head, "Don't say I did it, so she won't shed tears. If you cry a lot before getting married, your eyes will be red and swollen."

"understood……"

Zhang Wenxuan's voice was choked with sobs.

A big man would be moved by the true feelings of a young boy, let alone a girl.

As the saying goes, a man does not cry easily.

Zhang Wenxuan left, the master and apprentice also went to eat, Qilan leaned against the wall alone, crying in a low voice.

He's not that embarrassed right now.

Shi'an packed all the silver dollars he saved, enough to stay in the inn for two months.

After the exams on New Year's Day, he will go to repair the small house he bought, and get some furniture to live in, so he doesn't need to go outside.

The wages for overtime work are settled in cash every day, and three meals are provided in the hotel. Apart from buying some books and newspapers, there is almost no money.

The only trouble is that the girl he loves wants to marry someone else, but he can only watch helplessly.

Qilan wiped away tears, gnawed on the bread, and saw a jar of sugar on the shelf.

The lid is tight, and there is a lot of sugar inside.

"Oops……"

He suddenly remembered that even though he had never used a fork to make snacks for guests, he forgot to put sugar in making butter biscuits for Lin Mi today.

Since no sugar was added, what were those spoonfuls of white crystals that he poured in in a trance?

Qilan went to look for the glass jar with white crystals in his memory, but found that it was gone.

In desperation, he went to ask the master teacher, and the answer he got made him restless.

It turned out that an apprentice went to the pharmacy to buy alum in the morning, and used it to boil Chinese medicine.

Qilan asked for leave and stepped on a bicycle to chase Zhang Wenxuan.

In order to fight for time, he rode the car so fast that the wheels were about to catch fire.

However, Qilan rushed to Wenmo Road out of breath, but Zhang Wenxuan was nowhere to be seen.

The guard standing guard at the gate of Lin's house recognized him and raised his gun more than 200 meters away.

Qilan had no choice but to ride his bike into an adjacent alley and hide temporarily.

In fact, as soon as Zhang Wenxuan got off his bicycle, before he could find a place to put the bicycle away, a gun was held against his waist.

He thought he had been robbed, his legs became weak from fright, and he said that as long as he could save his life, he would give up all the money.

It wasn't the robbers who stopped him, but Qin Feng who was observing the situation outside the Lin residence.

Originally, Qin Feng planned to climb the wall after dark, so he came to check the situation first in the afternoon.

Sure enough, everything can change.

The walls of Lin's house were all freshly painted in the morning, and they haven't dried completely yet.

What's annoying is that the exterior wall of Lin's house is painted with imported paint, which is very sticky, and when you touch a leaf, it sticks firmly.

The color is also absolutely perfect, it's frighteningly green, if you get it on your face, head, or body, you won't be able to see Lin Mi.

Because of the wedding, Lin's house has to be refurbished in the past two days.

The color of the exterior wall is based on Dr. Miller's suggestion.

The German, who doesn't understand China's national conditions and customs, said that the things at home should be painted green as much as possible, which will help Master Lin relieve his emotions.

The foreign doctor had good intentions, saying that green symbolizes hope and peace and is the best color.

In the eyes of Mr. Lin and Mrs. Lin, it is the worst color, reminiscent of things like green hats, a taboo for newlyweds.

The method of climbing over the wall was no longer feasible, Qin Feng was furious when he saw Zhang Wenxuan.

After cross-examination, he learned that it was the doctor who came to see Young Master Lin, not Lin Mi's love rival, so he didn't bother to waste energy.

"You can go in and see Lin Yitang, and I can go in and see Lin Mi."

Zhang Wenxuan didn't dare to ask more questions, and went to get the medicine box and butter biscuits on the back seat of the car.

Qin Feng stared at the biscuit.

"Wait a minute, what are you doing with this when you go to see a doctor? Are you sure it's not courting?"

After speaking, he snatched it up and held it in his hand.

Zhang Wenxuan walked behind, and he walked in front.

When Qin Feng walked to the door, the guards recognized that he had competed with Young Master Lin in marksmanship and dared not stop him.

He said loudly: "I'm Miss Lin's friend, I want to meet her, please go up and tell her."

One of the guards went upstairs to report.

Mr. Lin took his wife out on business, and only Lin Mi was left at home to take care of his cousin.

After hearing the guard explaining the situation of the visitor, she agreed to go downstairs to meet.

Qilan clearly saw Zhang Wenxuan and a strange young man coming to the gate of Lin's house at the entrance of the alley.

Zhang Wenxuan went in with the medicine box on his back, while the man stayed where he was, as if waiting for someone, holding the box of butter biscuits with alum in his hand.

Soon, Lin Mi came out wearing a casual cheongsam and saw Qin Feng with a slight smile on his face.

"Mr. Qin, thank you for coming to see me. I won't accept this gift."

She talked to him for a while, then said goodbye.

Qilan watched the man walk towards a black car not far away, and put the biscuit box in the back seat.
