Shopkeeper Hu just walked away with the young man, while Hongmei stood there blankly. She looked at the door as she left, like a helpless bird, slowly shedding tears.
Lin Haoming had to admire Gao Fangfang's acting skills, there was no flaw at all.
"Brother Lin and Miss Hongmei really know each other!" Those yamen rushed in just now. Yingpan and Guo Yun didn't say anything. Now that they were gone, they finally breathed a sigh of relief.
Lin Haoming sighed slightly and said: "Yes, Hongmei was the maid of my former concubine. She disappeared later. I didn't expect to meet her here. Hongmei, what are your plans in the future?"
"Mr. Lin, I...I..." Gao Fangfang seemed very confused.
Guo Yun smiled and said at this time: "Does Miss Hongmei have a place to stay in the city?"
"I'm temporarily staying in Dengtian Pavilion, but I'm afraid I have to leave tomorrow!" Hongmei sighed bitterly.
"If that's the case, I still have a private house in the city. I originally planned to let Brother Lin live there first. Since Miss Hongmei, you and Brother Lin are already acquaintances. How about living together? Brother Lin is now alone here.
, we also need someone to take care of us!" Guo Yundao said.
Lin Haoming could tell that Guo Yun arranged this deliberately. Although he didn't know his intention, he accepted it.
Lin Haoming also wanted to ask Gao Fangfang what intentions he had for him, so he also persuaded: "Hongmei, how about this, and I also want to ask you about your experiences over the years. In fact, you don't have to work so hard."
, I have no intention of going back on what I promised you back then!"
"I'm sorry, sir, it's all my fault, I thought I was right!" Perhaps feeling Lin Haoming's concern, Hongmei couldn't help but burst into tears. Now she is like a poor child who needs the care of others.
This woman had hurt him many times. When Lin Haoming saw her like this, his heart moved and he simply went over and put his arms around her body.
Gao Fangfang obviously didn't expect Lin Haoming to be so courageous and dare to hug her. She subconsciously wanted to break away, but found that Lin Haoming was prepared and hugged her tightly with both hands. It was not impossible for her to break free in this situation.
But it will definitely arouse others' suspicion.
"Lin Haoming, you are very brave, why don't you let me go!"
Lin Haoming soon heard Gao Fangfang's voice, which was no longer as gentle as before and was obviously full of anger.
Instead, Lin Haoming hugged Gao Fangfang tighter to show that he was not afraid of her at all.
Gao Fangfang was helpless at this time, and pinched Lin Haoming's waist secretly, but found that Lin Haoming didn't care at all, and had no choice but to have an idea: "I can't stay here any longer, but there are still some things I need."
Clean it up, Mr. Lin, please allow me to clean it up!"
"Okay, let me help you!" Lin Haoming was afraid that Gao Fangfang would disappear, so he stood up on his own initiative.
Gao Fangfang shook her head and said: "Guests are not allowed to enter there. Don't worry, sir, I will never leave without saying goodbye this time!"
Gao Fangfang's words were obviously reminding Lin Haoming that she would not disappear. Seeing her saying this, Lin Haoming did not insist.
After Gao Fangfang left, Lin Haoming immediately asked Yingpan: "Brother Ying, who is that Qian Shao just now? So arrogant?"
"Young Master Qian is Qian Muli, the youngest son of Qian Fengyuan, a right-wing political strategist. Because he is the daughter of the main wife, he is very popular in the Qian family!" Yingpan said.
"Although Qian Muli has a playful personality, he also knows how to restrain himself. Like today's incident, he has actually been very restrained. Otherwise, if it were the Wu family's yamen, I'm afraid we would also be implicated." Guo Yun seemed very worried.
Fortunately.
After hearing this, Lin Haoming felt that it was unlikely that Qian Muli was deliberately arranged by Gao Fangfang, but it was possible that shopkeeper Hu was Gao Fangfang's person, otherwise she would not have been able to dance here calmly.
In fact, Lin Haoming's guess was not wrong at all. As soon as Gao Fangfang returned to her so-called own room, shopkeeper Hu had already ran over and knelt in front of her as soon as she entered the door. He said with some worry: "Tianzun, please atone for your sins. I have no subordinates."
I thought Qian Muli would show up."
"This is none of your business, but now he's helping me!"
Shopkeeper Hu was relieved when she heard that Gao Fangfang didn't blame her.
"After today, if there is nothing extremely important, don't come to me again, and don't stay here anymore," Gao Fangfang warned.
"Yes, I understand!" After hearing this, shopkeeper Hu immediately left respectfully.
Not long after, Gao Fangfang walked out of the room again with a pitiful appearance and returned to where Lin Haoming was.
Lin Haoming wanted to talk to Gao Fangfang about something, so he immediately didn't want to stay here.
Yingpan also saw this, but he had no intention of leaving immediately. He just wanted to improve the contact method with Lin Haoming and continue to enjoy here.
Lin Haoming and Guo Yun walked out of the house together and quickly got into the same carriage.
It was already dusk at this time. After getting on the carriage, Guo Yun mentioned a place and the carriage immediately started moving.
"I originally planned to let you stay at my house tonight. Now let's go to my other house first. It will be more convenient for you!" After the carriage moved, Guo Yun glanced at Lin Haoming and Gao Fangfang and said this deliberately.
talk.
"Lao Guo, you took the trouble!" Lin Haoming finally understood his good intentions.
"You helped me make a lot of money this time. You should show it to me. I only have two servants to take care of my house to prevent it from being abandoned. I will send a few servants there in two days!" Guo Yun continued to show his goodwill.
road.
"Thank you, Lao Guo!" Lin Haoming did not refuse his kindness.
Gao Fangfang didn't speak during the whole journey. The carriage soon arrived at the house. It was exactly as Guo Yun said. There was only an old couple taking care of the house. Although there was no grass growing in the house, many places did appear to be uninhabited.
Somewhat musty smell.
Because the master came back, the old couple immediately got busy.
Guo Yun told the old couple some things and did not stay any longer as an excuse to go back.
Lin Haoming could tell that this was Guo Yun's intention. After the old couple tidied up the two rooms, he sent them away.
After they left, Lin Haoming looked at Gao Fangfang who finally showed a smile, smiled bitterly, and said: "I have to admire your acting skills. You really pretend to be who you are. If I didn't know your true identity, I would never believe that you are Gao Fangfang."
, of course if your name is really Gao Fangfang!"
After Gao Fangfang confirmed that the old couple were indeed just ordinary people and that no one else was watching, she put down her disguise and said with a smile: "I thought you would be impatient to ask why I let you get close to Gong Xinzhu in the first place!"
"If you want to say it, you will naturally say it. If you don't want to say it, I can't force you. After all, your cultivation level is so much higher than mine!" Lin Haoming said very freely.
