The modern me and the Republic of China her

Chapter 368 Thank you for telling me the truth
When Mrs. Lin went downstairs, she didn't look at Li Yan and Shi'an at first.

There were a lot of people downstairs, and some young ladies and wives were still chatting and laughing with each other very loudly.

Shi'an also felt that nothing would happen even if the two of them kept staring at her, and was about to continue drinking tea, but the boy next to him lost his chain.

With a bang, the teacup in Li Yan's hand knocked to the floor, and the slightly hot tea even splashed onto her socks. Shi'an had to hold back a scream that almost blurted out, took a step back, and bent down Wipe off the water on the shoe.

The cracking sound of porcelain was nothing at all, but it was because the guards who were following Mrs. Lin were too quick to react. They stretched out their heads to look downstairs, and quickened their pace, "Be careful, I'm afraid there may be a Someone is going to make trouble!"

Mrs. Lin was timid, screamed, and retreated behind them, not daring to go down.

A few seconds later, the guards rushed down. They sensed something strange keenly and seemed to be preparing to draw their guns.

No, the young boy in the store, with firm eyes and straight shoulders, doesn't look like an ordinary shopper.

Seeing this, Shi'an winked at Li Yan, signaling him not to panic, and he will deal with it immediately.

She pulled the hem of his clothes, pretended to be familiar with him, and said as she walked:
"Come on, let's go look at the clothes."

Li Yan immediately followed her there, as expected of being trained in obeying orders.

The guards turned around and found that they were looking at the clothes one by one, and they stopped chasing them.

"Madam, come down, it's safe here."

Mrs. Lin went downstairs carefully.

Li Yan anxiously watched her and the guards go out through the rows of colorful silk and satin fabrics.

Seeing that she was about to leave in the car, he was a little unwilling, and was about to follow, but Shi An pulled her back.

She covered her head with a piece of clothing as a cover, and said quietly, "Don't go, you might get shot."

He didn't take it seriously, "Why? I saw my wife, but I haven't told her about the situation at home these days."

Shi'an pretended to be an adult, pretending to be profound and said:
"Actually, it's enough for you to meet her tonight and make sure it's her. I'll tell you the rest later."

Li Yan hadn't decided whether to say "agree" or "no", she waved and called the shrewd old man who accompanied Mrs. Lin upstairs just now.

"Boss Li, hello. I want to pick up the clothes one day in advance today."

Boss Li smiled, stroked his beard, and said to the two shop assistants beside him, "Go to the inner room and see if Miss He's clothes are ironed?"

He looked at the young man next to her again, and took it for granted that he was the servant she brought.

"Miss He, the dress Mr. Qin ordered for you is also ready. Just pick it up tonight."

After a while, all the big and small bags of clothes were delivered.

Shi'an picked up the clothes one by one and looked at them carefully, and found that they all fit, so she happily accepted them all.

After paying the money, she walked briskly ahead, "Let's go back, thank you Boss Li!"

Li Yan bit the bullet and took a large pile of heavy clothes, and the two went out one after the other. When they reached a place with few people and wide roads, they asked in a low voice:
"Miss He, where does my wife live now? Who sent those two people? "

Shi'an's answer is irrelevant:
"Hurry up and take me back."

Li Yan was so angry that he wanted to throw all the clothes in his hand on the ground, "A gentleman should keep his promise. Answer my question first!"

Shi'an thinks his angry look is funny, "I don't dare to call myself a gentleman, but I'm not a villain either."

"I'm afraid I'm the only one willing to tell you the truth about Mrs. Lin's affairs."

His heart beat a beat slower, and a bad premonition came up, and he couldn't get rid of it.

Shi'an didn't notice the change in his expression for a moment, she just thought about finishing speaking and going home.

"She didn't go to the south, she found a new backer, here, she is also a big shot in the army, surnamed Hong."

"Honestly, she's doing well, as you saw tonight."

Li Yan's blood rushed to his forehead.

Mr. Lin said that his uncle was named Hong
I can't be more disturbed.Breathing also became heavy.

"How much do you know?"

Shi'an looked at the black clouds in the sky, clasped her arms with both hands, and her voice was much quieter.

"I can't say anymore, I overheard it."

Li Yan didn't respond to her, and sat on a bridge railing by the side of the road, covering his chest with cold sweat.

A kind of pain similar to a knife grinding meat surfaced layer by layer from the depths of my heart.

And his pale face due to anger and entanglement reminded Shi'an of a person suddenly.

These eyebrows and eyes are [-]% similar to the mysterious guest who visited the house frequently recently.

All kinds of overheard fragments of information were seamlessly spliced ​​together at that moment.guessed his identity,

She leaned over nervously and tentatively asked:
"You're 17 years old from the south, right?"

Li Yan endured the pain and nodded heavily, acquiescing to her guess.

He closed his eyes and didn't want to talk. Shi'an was tired from standing, and was about to sit on the bridge railing with his skirt up.

Unexpectedly, he heard rustling noises around him, opened his eyes, and seeing her wanting to come and sit, he quickly reached out to stop her:
"It's too dangerous here, your skirt is so long, it will be bad if you fall off."

Shi'an had no choice but to continue standing without sitting on the railing of the bridge.

A carriage happened to be coming this way, Li Yan pointed at the front of the carriage and said, "Miss He, you can go home by carriage. I'm too much to take tonight, I can't take you off, the fare for the carriage is mine."

Shi'an heard this sincerely, and she couldn't bear to mention his inner pain again.

"What I heard from adults, don't tell others."

Li Yan pretended to be calm and smiled, "I definitely won't say it. Thank you for telling me the truth."

Just when the carriage came, the driver looked friendly, so he greeted him and patiently sent Shi'an and her pile of new clothes up.

Shi'an got into the carriage and heard him say from outside: "Be careful on the road!"

She quickly opened the curtain, stretched out her head, and shouted outside: "There will be a period later!"

However, his shadow disappeared, as if everything at night was a dream.

When Shi'an returned home, she was helped out of the car by the guards. She turned her head habitually and saw a carriage running leisurely nearby.

Li Yan was afraid that she would be in danger, but just as he was relieved to ask the driver to go back, he heard a car horn beeping.

From the gap in the curtain of the car, he could see clearly that the car was parked just in front of He Zhai, and a group of guards raised their hands in salute: "General Hong, please come inside!"
