Just as the little round-faced girl was feeling scared and uneasy, her hand was patted twice. She turned her head and saw Lin Cai's faint smile.
Seeing that smiling, round face, I felt inexplicably calm. Yes!
We're already here, what's the use of being afraid? No matter if they're good people or not, no matter what the future holds, we still have to live on!
Besides, didn't that old lady already say that?
She could become the wife of the man that old lady mentioned. If she becomes someone else's wife, that man should protect his wife, right?
Lin Cai was unaware that the round-faced girl already had a plan in mind. She leaned quietly against the wall, lost in thought.
Gu Zhan followed Cui Dazhu to their residence, and after observing for a while, went directly to the backyard.
The girls who brought them here weren't taken over, so it's very likely they were left here.
The front of this place is empty, where several grown men live. There are more houses in the back, and there are also children in the yard.
After Gu Zhan landed on one of the rooftops, he heard sounds coming from inside before he could even remove the thatch.
His hand, which was about to make a move, suddenly stopped, and then he left the house as quickly as possible.
Fortunately, there was no one around him, otherwise he would have definitely seen that Gu Zhan, who usually doesn't show much emotion, had red ears.
Upon reaching another rooftop, Gu Zhan didn't attempt to remove the thatch this time. Instead, he found a secluded spot and jumped off.
Fortunately, there are no experts like him here, otherwise we would definitely have seen him walking on the rooftops in broad daylight.
The area below is spacious, but it's only suitable for children to play in. If you want to do other things, this place is a bit small.
Gu Zhan started from the bottom and looked through each room until he saw the last room.
Looking out the window, you could see two girls sitting close together in the corner at the foot of the bed.
He glanced at the person and, seeing that it wasn't the one he was looking for, turned to leave.
But just then, someone rushed over from the other side: "Wait, wait, don't go, don't go yet..."
"Can you come and save us? You're not with them, are you? I was kidnapped by them, please take me away from here!"
"I haven't found the person I'm looking for yet."
Gu Zhan spoke calmly and was about to leave when Zhang Caixia quickly stopped him, saying, "You don't need to look anymore. There's no one here except us."
"Maybe the person you're looking for is already dead. Save me, and I'll take you home. Then I'll tell my parents and we'll marry you."
Zhang Caixia spoke quickly, confident that the man would agree, because back home, many men wanted to marry her.
Although the Zhang family wasn't wealthy, they were still doing alright. She looked down on them and always wanted to find someone to marry into her family.
Zhang Caixia thought the person in front of her was fine; she liked his appearance, and it didn't matter if his social status was a little lower. After descending the mountain...
They don't reveal their identities, so no one will know that this person used to be a bandit.
When Gu Zhan heard this, his first thought was that this woman must be seriously ill, otherwise why would she say such a thing?
His second reaction was to turn around and leave; he didn't believe Lin Cai would get into trouble here.
Seeing him about to leave, Zhang Caixia tried to call him back loudly, but before she could speak, another voice called him back.
"Didn't you come here to find someone? You're leaving before you even found them?"
Hearing Lin Cai speak, Zhang Caixia was very unhappy. She turned around and glared at Lin Cai: "Shut up! Did I tell you to speak? That guy came to see me. What does it have to do with you?"
"Don't think that just because you're pretty, all men will be interested in you. A vixen like you wouldn't even get a second glance from me."
She went to scold Lin Cai, completely unaware that the person who was about to leave had now returned.
Lin Cai heard Zhang Caixia scolding her, but ignored her, her round face full of resentment.
How could this person do this? She went out and suffered, and now she's blaming others for her mistakes?
They didn't hurt her to become this way.
Zhang Caixia felt it wasn't enough and wanted to continue scolding when she saw Gu Zhan walking towards her.
She was overjoyed to see people coming, and her face lit up with a smile, though her smile was rather unpleasant.
Her face, which wasn't particularly attractive to begin with, is now covered in injuries. When she smiles like this, it looks like... well, you know!
Gu Zhan had no time to care about others; he only remembered the sound he had just heard, and he stopped only to confirm it.
"Are you hungry?"
Not knowing how to ask, Gu Zhan blurted out this question, which made Lin Cai's lips twitch.
Does this person have nothing to ask?
Why don't you ask if I'm hungry?
If she answers that she is hungry, should he go and get her something to eat before leaving?
Lin Cai was still trying to figure out how to answer when someone else did.
"I'm hungry, I'm hungry! Big brother, do you have anything to eat?"
"What can I eat? Is it pastries from Baixiangzhai? If not, then I won't eat it..."
"And it has to be one of the newest pastries from Baixiangzhai, otherwise I won't eat a single bite."
At first, when Xiao Yuanlian heard the unfamiliar voice, she thought it was someone coming to rescue them, but later she heard Zhang Caixia talking to that person.
Zhang Caixia was fierce and unfriendly to them, and Xiao Yuanlian knew that they had no hope of getting out!
Just as she was feeling disappointed and dejected, she heard what Lin Cai said, which turned her disappointment into excitement.
And so, the little round face kept oscillating between disappointment and excitement until Gu Zhan said, "They are all very worried about you." Only then did the little round face's emotions settle down into excitement.
Hearing the conversation between the two, Zhang Caixia, who had been rambling on and on, understood everything perfectly.
She first glared at Gu Zhan, then glared fiercely at Lin Cai, before returning to her original position.
Gu Zhan came here to rescue people; there's a difference between taking one person away and taking everyone with him.
He originally only wanted to take Lin Cai away, but Lin Cai wanted to take Xiao Yuanlian with her. It wouldn't be impossible for him to take both of them, but at this moment Zhang Caixia came over and interfered.
“If you’re going to take them, take them all. You can’t just take these two women. If you only take these two women, I’ll start yelling as soon as you leave.”
