Gulp!

Feng Chun, who was hiding in the corner, was also very thirsty. She swallowed hard.

She also wanted to drink a bottle of soda, but she never could afford to buy it. Her family only had such a small pension, and she thought every day about how to split the money into two halves to spend.

After drinking the soda, Tian Yuzhu returned the bottle to the counter and walked straight towards the town government.

She didn't look back during this time, but with her years of professional experience, she could feel that the idiot Feng Chun was following her.

Seeing her wandering in front of the town government, Feng Chun's heart almost jumped out of his throat.

She just saw Mayor Qin talking to Tian Yuzhu yesterday.

Oh, you can't hold it back anymore and come to me again today?

Bah, you shameless vixen.

Feng Chun clenched his fists excitedly.

As long as Mayor Qin comes out and sees Tian Yuzhu do anything out of the ordinary, she can immediately jump out and catch them in the act.

We'll see how they can make excuses then.

"Comrade, who are you looking for?"

The guard spotted Tian Yuzhu and came out to ask her enthusiastically.

"Oh, hello, I'm looking for Mayor Qin, I'm..."

"Tian Yuzhu?"

Qin Xu was just on his way to the meeting room. When he passed by the yard, he heard that familiar voice and suddenly felt something strange in his heart.

The man quickly came out to greet him, and a smile naturally bloomed on his face: "Are you looking for me?"

Tian Yuzhu nodded politely. "Mayor Qin, it's because of what happened yesterday. We left in a hurry yesterday, and Erhu's mother, Feng Chun, was so flustered that she forgot to thank you. So, today, she came to thank you specially!"

"Really? Actually, it was you who found Erhu. Besides, it's my job to help find the baby." Qin Xu said modestly.

Feng Chun, who was hiding behind the wall, felt a buzzing in his head.

No, there's nothing wrong with her ears, right?

Why did I hear that woman mention Erhu and her?

Could it be that she discovered it?

Just as he was feeling flustered and uneasy, a voice of laughter came from above his head: "Feng Chun, hurry up and get up. What are you squatting here for? Didn't you say you were here to thank Mayor Qin? Now the mayor is here."

Feng Chun raised his eyes with a frown and slowly stood up.

She saw Tian Yuzhu with a smile on her face and Mayor Qin with a concerned look on his face.

Suddenly, his mind went blank and he didn't know what to think. His only reaction was to laugh and say, "Thank you, Mayor Qin, for helping me find Erhu."

In Qin Xu's eyes, this was just a somewhat restrained and uncomfortable military wife. He smiled gently, "It's okay, sister-in-law. Serving the people is our purpose. Besides, it was Tian Yuzhu who found Erhu. If you want to thank anyone, she should be the one."

"Haha, yes... yes!" Feng Chun felt that he almost bit his tongue. He was so nervous that he couldn't speak.

Tian Yuzhu then took her arm and said with a smile, "Don't laugh, Mayor Qin, Feng Chun is a bit introverted. By the way, can I ask you for a glass of water? She's been rushing all the way here and she's been thirsty the whole time."

"Sure, no problem at all, please follow me."

Qin Xu was more than happy to do so, and quickly and politely led the way for them.

Feng Chun looked at Tian Yuzhu in confusion. When did she say she was thirsty?

Besides, even if you are thirsty, you shouldn’t ask the mayor for water, right?

Although I thought so in my heart, I didn't dare to ask or say more.

She could only let Tian Yuzhu drag her into the town government gate for the first time in her life.

After entering, Qin Xu took them directly to his office.

There were a few scattered papers on the table, and he quickly picked them up.

He is usually a very neat person, but today he looks a little messy, which makes him feel embarrassed.

Rubbing his hands, he said, "You guys sit down, I'll go get some water."

"Mayor, I don't feel comfortable asking you to pour it yourself. Just tell me where to pour it and I'll go." Tian Yuzhu immediately volunteered.

Qin Xu was about to speak when a staff member came in and said, "Mayor, everyone is waiting for you to start the meeting."

"Okay, got it." He waved his hand, signaling the other party to go first.

Then he looked at Tian Yuzhu and said, "Look, I'm busy all day long. The cup is here. Turn left when you leave the hot water room. The tea is here."

He took out the tea canister and placed it on the table: "Thank you for your help."

"We are the ones who are bothering you." Tian Yuzhu said calmly.

Qin Xu smiled and nodded, took a pen and notebook and hurried to the meeting.

As soon as he left, Feng Chun stood up and said, like an old hen ready to fight, "Why are you..."

"sit down."

"What?"

"I say, sit down. Aren't you thirsty? I'll get you some water." Tian Yuzhu glanced at her and calmly took tea from the teapot.

Feng Chun was stunned. He moved his mouth but couldn't say anything.

She suddenly felt that the woman's tone was rather scary. When she asked her to sit down, she was inexplicably frightened and could only sit down obediently: "Um, Yuzhu, I'm not thirsty."

"No, you're thirsty."

"But I..."

Tian Yuzhu decided not to let her talk any more, so she put down her cup and walked closer, staring at her with cold and sharp eyes: "Don't think I don't know you're following me, but I didn't expose your true identity. Instead, I said you came to thank me. What's the matter? You don't appreciate it. Are you going to admit that you're following me?"

"No, no, no, I didn't." Feng Chun quickly shook his hand.

But she shook it a few times and then put it down guiltily. It was indeed the case.

She didn't dare to look Tian Yuzhu in the eye, and could only lower her head silently: "Don't I want to spend more time with you?"

Chi!

Tian Yuzhu sneered.

In her heart, she didn't believe Feng Chun's words at all, but now was not the time to argue with her.

And she was actually quite curious about why Feng Chun did all this.

"Wait, I'll go pour some water." Tian Yuzhu went out carrying two cups of tea.

Feng Chun sat alone in the mayor's office...

She felt uncomfortable all over, after all, she had never seen an office like this before.

Deep down, I was hoping that Tian Yuzhu would come back soon.

Tian Yuzhu, who was in the corridor outside, deliberately walked around the yard.

The hot water room was clearly on the left, but she turned right and walked past all the office doors in the courtyard.

Later, when I walked to the side of a storage room, I heard someone in front of me whispering something.

"You have to propose going up the mountain as soon as possible. The longer we wait, the greater the danger we will be exposed to."

"But I feel like the mayor doesn't trust us."

"What's there to be afraid of with a letter of introduction? You must bring it up at the meeting."

"good."

The two people who were chatting felt like there was someone there, so they quickly stopped chatting and turned around to check from the corner of the room.

I saw a woman in simple clothes squatting there, buttoning her cloth shoes.

Tian Yuzhu buttoned her clothes, picked up the cup and stood up with a very calm expression.

One of the two people was a Westerner and the other had an Asian face. They spoke a mixture of Japanese and English, and she understood it all.

It was obvious that it was a woman, and both men breathed a sigh of relief.

"Don't worry, she won't understand. Women in this country are barely educated, let alone speak foreign languages."
