340 Knowing
The contents of the letter were very short. Li Xiangjun only said that she had matters to attend to and could no longer be the manager of the shop. Then, she asked them to help stop Fang Tianliu from going to Huai County.
Fang Tianliu had been unconscious for the past two days.
Zhao Zhan had already brought his men to Huai County. Two of his family’s followers had stayed in the Bei City last time, while the other two, who had been trained, had been sent to Huai County to take care of the shop.
Since Li Xiangjun had suddenly taken her leave, Yue Jiaojiao had to meet her before she left.
However, the house she rented in Huai County had long been empty.
Because of this matter, Zhao Zhan had hurriedly cooked a bowl of rice noodles for her the moment he woke up, and then he had gone to Huai County.
She hadn’t told him about her pregnancy.
“Listen…” Yue Jiaojiao told him everything she knew in detail, “To be honest, I don’t know where Xiangjun is right now. I think she might have made up her mind on something this time.”
Fang Tianliu couldn’t accept it.
If she really did not have any feelings for him, why did she not struggle that night?
She could have easily pushed him away and walked away.
Fang Tianliu was greatly shocked, but he still could not help but ask, “Then, did you know that she was getting married?”
Yue Jiaojiao was at a loss for words.
Zhao Zhan saw that she was in a difficult position and held her hand. “I’ve heard Madam Qin mention it before. Miss Li didn’t say anything when she came over last time, but she did hand over a wedding invitation.”
Fang Tianliu suddenly raised his eyes. “Where’s the invitation?”
“With me.” Zhao Zhan knew that he would not give up so easily, so he took out the card from his pocket and handed it over. “There are only two names written on it. I have already sent people to find out who this was, and I have not found this person in Huai County.”
The other party’s surname was Lin.
Fang Tianliu stared at it for a long time.
Yue Jiaojiao’s tone was hesitant. “Xiangjun said that there’s no possibility between you and her.”
These words were hurtful but it was written at the end of the letter.
That one sentence drained all of Fang Tianliu’s energy. He sat on the bed and carefully laid the wedding invitation under the pillow. He then took out the bag that he had not opened since he came back from Bei City.
“If that’s the case, let’s do it this way.”
He was so persistent that he didn’t know how to continue.
No matter why Li Xiangjun treated him like this, he didn’t want to think about whether he had his own difficulties.
The truth behind his parents’ deaths had yet to be found out, and he didn’t have that much time to waste.
Fang Tianliu seemed to have aged a few years in an instant.
“Zhao Zhan.” He untied the knot in the package and tied it again. After a few times, he smiled bitterly. “I’m going to Jiangnan.”
The Zhang family of Bei City had provided him with so much information. He couldn’t let down the other’s intentions.
“Zhang Lingshen helped me draw the portrait of Master Lin in Jiangnan. I plan to go to the Beauty Pavilion first to find out who the other party is. Then I will try to get close to him to find out the truth.”
After saying this, Fang Tianliu picked up the scissors on the table and raised his hand to cut his own face.
“What are you doing?!”
Zhao Zhan reacted quickly and grabbed his wrist. He squeezed hard, and the scissors fell to the ground with a clang.
“I’m not looking to commit suicide.” Fang Tianliu looked at the scissors on the ground.
“I’m just thinking that those people deliberately picked the Fang family to destroy. Maybe it’s because I didn’t know my limits in the past and offended someone.
“The other party might know what I look like. I just want to cut two scars on my eyebrows. It’s a long journey from Huai County to Jiangnan, and my beard will grow out by then. By then, I’ll look unkempt.
“In this case, even if the other party were to bump into me, he shouldn’t be able to recognize who I am.”
“Is there really a need to scar your face for such a small matter?”
Doctor Sun couldn’t stand to listen any longer, so he walked to his medicine rack and pulled out a few bottles of pills, then casually threw them to Fang Tianliu.
“Take it, these are what I do to relieve boredom. Pour these three pills into a bowl, mix them with a little water, and apply it to the place you want it to scar before it dries. You can’t see the difference.
“If you want to wash off the scar, you can use the pills in the porcelain bottle that I’ve tied with a red thread to melt it into water. Just be patient and wash it well for a while longer.”
Fang Tianliu couldn’t help but observe it heavily, “Is there really such a thing like this?”
Doctor Sun snorted coldly.
“Do you think that my medical skills can only cure cold wind?
“And about the love of your life… She’s still unwilling to tell you even after you’ve gone so far. It’s either because she thinks you’re not mature enough, not responsible enough, or not smart enough. She could possibly think that you’ve become a burden.
“Otherwise, it might not be the full truth that she wants to marry another good man. After all, sometimes love can not win over silver.”
After Doctor Dun’s direct lecture and blow, Fang Tianliu miraculously felt the knot in his heart loosen a little.
“Thank you,” Fang Tianliu said sincerely. “You must be able to say this because you are a modest and kind person.”
Even if Yue Jiaojiao wanted to stop him, she couldn’t.
Doctor Sun had always been alone. He only had Sun Jiyan, his disciple, to accompany him.
“What a pity,” Doctor Sun said with a sigh.
He shook his head halfway through his sentence.
Fang Tianliu kept his mouth shut and didn’t dare to ask anymore.
“Zhao Zhan, Jiaojiao, and Doctor Sun.”
Fang Tianliu took a step back and cupped his fists. “Thank you all for taking care of me during this period of time. I’m very grateful.”
Zhao Zhan hurriedly went to help him up. “Fang Tianliu, when you reach Jiangnan, remember to write a letter to us.”
“I will.”
Fang Tianliu picked up his bag and didn’t let them send him out.
Yue Jiaojiao looked at his back.
She suddenly recalled the situation when she first met him at the Rising Cloud Inn.
Now that the Rising Cloud Inn had changed its name, he and Li Xiangjun had been separated for no reason. It had not been long, but the things that had happened made her feel the power of time.
“You can’t be sighing for no reason.” Doctor Sun said. “You’re pregnant now, and sighing will make you feel bad. When the time comes, you’ll be the one suffering.”
Yue Jiaojiao subconsciously turned her head to look at Zhao Zhan.
Doctor Sun noticed her expression and hesitated. “Are you serious? That brat still doesn’t know?”
“You’re pregnant?” Zhao Zhan pulled his two ears and looked at Yue Jiaojiao and Doctor Sun in disbelief.
He opened his eyes wide, which was a rare sight. At this moment, his eyes were round.
“Jiaojiao…” His voice was trembling as he held Yue Jiaojiao’s hands and looked at Doctor Sun. “I’ve heard everything you just said.”
“Who’s pregnant?”
He held Yue Jiaojiao’s hands tightly.
