Chapter 97 I Like Her

Hu Ling, Lin Mo, Zhou Hansheng himself, plus Zhaonan and Zhaobei who were guarding the entrance of the cave, were just right.

Although it is not perfect, it is at least much better than the crowded before.

As for Yu Xiaofang, he had to take care of the two injured people in the big cave.

After all this trouble, the moon was already at its highest point in the sky.

The mountain wind was howling, and it was pitch black outside. The cold moonlight was very faint, and it made the place look shadowy everywhere, as if there were hidden monsters lurking there, which was even more frightening.

Zhou Hansheng handed the thick cloak he brought to Zhao Liya naturally and said to her, "Miss Zhao, take a rest. You must have been scared today. Rest early. Don't worry, everything will be fine. I, we are all here."

The conditions in the mountains were harsh, so one could make do if possible, but no one would refuse a slightly better deal. Zhao Liya felt warm in her heart and nodded, "Thank you! You should all rest early, this area should be relatively safe."

Everyone leaned against the wall of the cave and closed their eyes to rest.

No words were spoken all night.

Maybe she was really scared during the day, or maybe she was exhausted in the past two days, but Zhao Liya slept particularly sweetly and peacefully that night.

She didn't know when the day broke.

She was awakened by the smell of barbecue.

I initially thought I was dreaming, my mind still fuzzy in my semi-conscious state. I subconsciously thought: That's not right. How can I smell fragrance in a dream? Is it possible that I'm smelling it wrongly?

I sniffed harder, and the fragrance became stronger, more alluring, and clearer.

Not a dream!

Zhao Liya opened her eyes. It smelled so good!

As soon as she woke up, Zhou Hansheng looked over. Their eyes met, and Zhou Hansheng smiled and said, "Are you awake? There's roast chicken, fish soup, and a small pot of porridge, just in time for when you wake up."

Zhao Liya hadn't expected to live such a life in the mountains. She felt a little embarrassed and nodded and smiled at Zhou Hansheng, "Good morning, Mr. Zhou! You guys are really hardworking. I'm the laziest!"

Zhou Hansheng laughed and said, "They are tough and strong, but you are different. Besides, you were scared yesterday, so you should have a good rest."

"Mr. Zhou's words really make me feel at ease!"

"Well, that's how it is."

Zhao Liya couldn't help laughing.

As she spoke, she had already gotten up, folded and neatly packed the things that had covered her last night, and went out to the water source to wash her face and rinse her mouth.

The villagers had all gotten up by now, chatting among themselves. When they saw Zhao Liya, they all greeted her.

Although the Gu brothers were hateful, Zhao Liya and Hu Ling, brother and sister, were able to fight back without making any noise and completely defeat them, which showed that they were even more capable.

Yesterday they were so shocked and angry that now they came to their senses. All the villagers felt a little more awed towards Zhao Liya and Hu Ling: Who dares to mess with them?

After breakfast, everyone returned to the village together.

Lin Mo agreed to the hunt. He would lead everyone into the mountains and visit Yu Gongcao's house to ask what the higher-ups wanted, and whether they had specifically requested a tiger. So, no one was in a hurry for the moment.

Who dares to believe what the Gu brothers say?

On the way back, Hulu and Baldy were drafted to join the team carrying the Gu brothers. Others could take turns normally, but only after others had taken two rounds were they allowed to take a turn.

They were so exhausted that they were panting and pale, but they dared not say a word. The villagers were all very happy to see them.

In the past, relying on the support of the Gu family brothers, these bad bastards did a lot of stealing and molesting young girls and wives. What kind of immoral things have they not done?

In the past, everyone dared to be angry but not to speak out. Now, if anyone gets angry and wants to beat them up, they deserve it.

After a night, the Gu brothers were still conscious, but they were holding their mouths and holding their breath, which made them suffocate. Their eyes were red, their faces were hideous, their eyes were fierce, and their faces were pale from blood loss. They looked like evil spirits, and one look at them would make people lose their appetite and not want to look at them a second time.

Zhao Liya was secretly surprised. The villagers might not be aware of this, or might not understand, and didn't think much about it, but Zhao Liya understood. The two brothers were seriously injured yesterday, but they were not unconscious today and were still so energetic. It can be seen that the medicine used by Yu Xiaofang was very effective. Their wounds were not inflamed and they did not have a high fever.

Or even if you had a high fever at night, it would be better by now.

It seems that the village legend that Yu Xiaofang's medical skills are not very good and he is just a half-baked doctor is not credible.

Zhou Hansheng obviously noticed this as well and looked at Yu Xiaofang twice more.

Zhou Hansheng brought the horse in yesterday. Given the mountain road and the fact that it was not early when they set out, they would definitely have to travel in the dark for a while, so it was not wise to lead the horse.

His subordinates wouldn't say anything, but Lin Mo and Yu Xiaofang felt it was inappropriate and specifically reminded him. Zhou Hansheng thanked them for their kindness and still followed with his horse.

At this moment, Zhou Hansheng invited Zhao Liya to ride on it: "The mountain road is difficult to walk on, Miss Zhao, please."

Zhao Liya was stunned.

Zhou Hansheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, Zhuiyu is very docile. Besides, I will hold him by the hand, so there will be no accidents."

"Ah, no! I—" Zhao Liya felt sweet, soft, and vague in her heart, as well as inexplicably guilty. She felt that everyone was looking at her, and she felt embarrassed.

But Mr. Zhou is very open-minded. If she acts like this, then nothing will become something else. Wouldn't that be a waste of Mr. Zhou's kindness?

Mr. Zhou comes from a noble family and is a son of a wealthy family. This is his courtesy to a weak woman!

Thinking of this, Zhao Liya felt a little more at ease.

So she smiled openly and said, "I just feel a little embarrassed! But since it's so kind of Mr. Zhou, I won't refuse! Thank you so much, Mr. Zhou, for taking care of me, a little girl in the team."

Zhou Hansheng chuckled and nodded slightly: "It's my duty."

The villagers: “.”

Well, that’s true, but why do weak women always feel like something is weird?

Yu Xiaofang couldn't help but twitch his lips. Taking advantage of the situation, he quietly complained to Lin Mo, "Mr. Zhou must have misunderstood something. Hehe, this misunderstanding is quite big."

Lin Mo glanced at him without saying anything.

There's no way to explain this to someone who doesn't have a sweetheart.

He vaguely realized that this Mr. Zhou probably liked Miss Zhao?

Miss Zhao is so outstanding, it's no wonder he likes her.

But he must be of a noble background, and it is not known whether it is a blessing or a curse for Miss Zhao that he falls in love with her.

However, he didn't need to worry about this. Miss Zhao was very smart, and nothing could defeat or stump her.

We hurried all the way and arrived at the village just after three o'clock in the afternoon.

Zhou Hansheng ordered Zhaonan to take two men and go ahead. He asked two doctors to wait in the village and gathered many villagers, saying that there was an important matter and that the people who returned from the mountains would tell everyone soon.
