The modern me and the Republic of China her

Chapter 24 Acceptance
When Lin Mi's parents arrived, the principal accompanied them into the emergency room.

He avoided it early and was already on his way back to school.Every step of this road that he walked with her twice in the evening made his heart feel like a needle.

Part of this pain is out of regret and self-blame, and part of it is out of entanglement and confusion.

The figures of Ah Nan and Lin Mi appeared alternately in front of his eyes. Although they lived in two parallel time and space separated by more than 100 years, they had an intersection because of his time travel.

A reality that has always been difficult to accept is that the cup of coffee I drank was actually poisonous!

He traveled through time with poison, and the poison in his body poisoned an innocent girl...

The previous dream, along with the inexplicable feelings for Ah Nan, was blown away in the cool wind of early autumn.

It was as if the poison had been drained from his body, leaving no trace.

The first question that needs to be faced now is: Is my love for Ah Nan caused by taking drugs?
Why did she serve him poisoned coffee over and over again when they met for the first time?What is the point of doing this?
He thought while walking, bumped into a pedestrian and was scolded and ignored him.

Wiping off the cold sweat on his forehead, he struggled with the second question:

Does the feeling for Lin Mi mean wandering on the edge of love and friendship?Was her affection for him also caused by being poisoned?

If so, wouldn't you hate him to death once you wake up?
After stumbling and walking all the way, he returned to his residence lonely.The puppy came out from under the bed, bit its tail at him, and played with the necklace in its paw.

This is a lost and found necklace once cherished in the past.

Now I feel annoyed when I see it, I don't want to look at it more.

Fearing that it is poisonous, it will poison the puppy to death.Quickly took it off, intending to throw it out the window.

However, when he thought that someone would pick it up and continue to harm others, he had no choice but to withdraw his hand and throw it into an empty vase in the house, planning to take it to the outskirts and dig a pit to bury it when he had time.

Zhang Xiaofa washed his hands with soap several times before sitting down to continue the unfinished lesson plan.

I have to say that he is a good and responsible teacher.Even after experiencing the pain of incision and stitches without anesthesia and suffering such a great mental trauma, I still can't shake my meticulous attitude towards work.

Although he survived a sleepless night, the young man showed up in the classroom on time, walked up to the podium sunny and cheerful, and started a new day's work.

The class went smoothly as usual.

In the applause of the students, he couldn't help looking at the back row of the classroom, the empty seat hurt his eyes.

After the last class, it was already dusk.The person who had no intention of eating went to the bookstore with doubts.

There were not too many voices in the bookstore, as well as the sound of pages being turned.

Lifting his foot in, he saw a familiar face—

Gu Qimin? !

Feeling disgusted in his heart, he turned around and walked out the door as if he had been electrocuted.

Even if he became the third young master Gu Qilan in this life, he still couldn't accept the elder brother who didn't regard him as a brother.

The boy was not in a hurry to leave, he wanted to wait for the customers in the shop to disperse before going in.

However, he overlooked an important piece of information: the eldest wife gave birth to a pair of twins, besides the elder brother Qi Min, and the second brother Qi Jiang.

Tonight, I was also confused by the matter of poison, otherwise, if I turn my head slightly, I will see the difference:
Qi Ming didn't come in at all last time, saying that he doesn't like reading niche books.

The scholar in front of him holding an old thread-bound book with relish is none other than the Second Young Master Gu Qijiang who came back from Japan.

This person is talented and intelligent, sincere and kind to others, and especially cherishes family affection.

Just after receiving the telegram that my mother was admitted to the hospital, I asked for leave and hurried back to China. Unexpectedly, the boat ticket was delayed on the way.

When I hurried home today, the eldest wife had already been discharged from the hospital, and the whole family was reunited except for the third brother.

Qi Jiang was buried in his book and didn't notice the third brother's brief appearance in the bookstore.

After careful selection for a while, I bought a few books and wrapped them up. At the door of the store, I happened to meet Zhu Juanjuan who came to check the books.

At first Zhu Juanjuan also mistook him for Qimin, and greeted him politely, thanking him for the hospitality last time.

The other party looked at her intently, and smiled politely:
"I'm the second child of the Gu family, Qi Jiang. I just came back from Japan. The one Miss Zhu mentioned is my twin brother."

Seeing the pile of books in his hands, she was secretly surprised: he was indeed a man of profound knowledge, unlike her elder brother.

He was obsessed with Qilan's disappearance, so he tentatively asked:
"Second Young Master, I am the daughter of your father's old friend. I went to the mansion on the Mid-Autumn Festival, but you were not there. It is said that your third brother has been missing for more than a year?"

Qi Jiang sighed, with a rather sad tone:
"Qilan disappeared last summer. At that time, I was reviewing my homework at home and hadn't left the country yet. The third wife took him to a temple on the mountain in the north of the city to burn incense and pray for the second wife. Who knows that people disappeared halfway."

Tears welled up in his eyes, and his voice lowered a lot.

She guessed that Qijiang was really sad for Qilan's disappearance.Based on this sentence, it can be judged that his character is better than his brother.

A glimmer of hope ignited in Zhu Juanjuan's heart, and a voice in the dark said:
"You can rely on him."

She asked curiously: "Pray for the second wife? How do you say that?"

Qi Jiang's voice became even lower:
"The second wife has been missing for ten years. I don't know if she is alive or dead. In the end, my father also thought she was dead, so he paid someone to erect a monument beside the royal cemetery over there. Her father was a prince. The rest are rumored There are more, not much to say."

After hearing this, Zhu Juanjuan couldn't help shedding a few tears of sympathy, and choked up for a moment before answering:
"Qilan. Actually came back, only stayed at home for half a day and then left."

He fell into a deep confusion: "Have you seen him come back with your own eyes? But no one at home has said this..."

"I was wronged when I came back, and I had a fight with the third wife. The eldest wife suddenly fell ill, we sent her to the hospital, Qilan left a letter and left."

She took out the letter from her bag and handed it to Qijiang, "I went to the police station that day, and the sheriff said that he would call if he had any clues."

"What? You called the police?" Qi Jiang was startled, and all the books in his hand fell to the ground, "The third wife has an eyeliner at the police station, so you may, may harm my third brother!"

He opened the letter excitedly, scanned it quickly, and there was a little surprise in his eyes,

"It's not easy for the third brother to be able to write this letter. He has been tempered for more than a year since he left, and his mind has matured a lot."

"I returned to China this time and took a long vacation. I will return to school in February next year. If you have any questions, you can ask me out at any time. Let's meet in this bookstore. Let's find him together and try to find Qilan before the third wife .”

Zhang Xiaofa clearly heard the conversation between the two outside the door.

This crossing is not just as simple as finding the way back.

In just one week, bizarre events happened one after another, and it was difficult to figure out the clues of each one.

Right now, Lin Mi is recuperating in the hospital, but he has no way to accompany and take care of her.

Here, Ms. Zhu and her second brother are trying to find someone.

With this heart-warming kindness and sincerity, he may need to stand up, accept Gu Qilan's identity, and shoulder all the responsibilities that belong to him:
Including finding the whereabouts of Mr. Gu's biological mother and foiling the third wife's plot...

Complete these, even if you can't go back to modern times, you can still live up to your conscience.

As for whether the fate between me and Lin Mi is deep or shallow, I don't dare to think too far.

The young man made up his mind, walked into the bookstore decisively, stood in front of the two, and announced loudly:

"Miss Zhu, Second Brother, I'm Qilan!"
