Chapter 149 Did He Do It?
The staff at Changming Pavilion said with some reluctance, "Ah, Doctor Su has also left."
Qing Xing was also surprised. "Yes, I remember when Doctor Su originally planned to stay, he was very happy. How come he changed his mind in just a few days? I saw him yesterday and he seemed to be worried about something."
Yu Huatang looked at the road in front of her and after listening to Qingxing's words, she herself felt a little strange. Doctor Su was not a person who would joke casually. He had said before that he would stay, and he really intended to do so.
But yesterday he mentioned parents, but her intuition told her that it shouldn't be the case.
At this time, Xu Fu came back from outside and said, "I know why Doctor Su left."
Yu Huatang also looked over, and Xu Fu continued, "Yesterday, when I was delivering goods, I happened to see Wang Zhubu, who was beside Lord Zhao, ask Lord Su to go out. When Lord Su came back in the afternoon, he was a little dazed. He didn't even hear me when I said hello to him on the way out."
So yesterday afternoon, when Dr. Su said he wanted to go out for a walk, was it because he had encountered something? It wasn't about his parents as he mentioned, but something else.
Wang Zhubu is from the government office and is a low-key person. He usually doesn't look for people casually. Is he doing this his own idea or Zhao Yan's idea?
At this time, Xu Fu said sarcastically, "It must be something that Lord Zhao said. Everyone knows that Wang Zhubu works for the government office..."
Yu Huatang didn't want to say more, so he just said, "Okay, I understand. I'm not busy now, so you should pack up and get ready to go back."
Xu Fu nodded and left. Although Yu Huatang also helped to pack up, he was still worried about what Xu Fu said.
What is Zhao Yan doing? Is he so annoying to Su Qinghe...
It gets dark early in winter, so Yu Huatang asked them to go back early. When she arrived at the entrance of the courtyard, she was a little hesitant.
After thinking for a while, she finally walked to Zhao Yan's house and prepared to knock on the door. However, when she thought about such a thing that disappeared without a trace, she felt it was not easy to ask. Besides, what was the point of asking like this...
Just as she turned to leave, the courtyard door opened from the inside. It was An Fu who was about to go out. "Miss Yu?"
Yu Huatang asked, "Is Lord Zhao here?"
Anfu said happily, "Yes, yes, Miss Yu, please come in first. I'll go call the master." Then he ran into the house, shouting, "Master, Miss Yu is here."
After a while, footsteps were heard in the yard. They were very urgent at first, but slowed down when they reached the door. Zhao Yan walked out of the door, his eyes filled with joy and surprise, but he pretended to be calm and said, "Miss Yu, are you looking for me?"
Yu Huatang nodded, and Zhao Yan looked at her and said, "It's cold outside, why don't you come inside and talk."
She looked around and saw that there was no one around, so she followed him in.
As soon as she entered the house, it was warm as spring. Zhao Yan poured her a cup of hot tea. She took a sip and held it in her hand.
Zhao Yan looked at her with both joy and uneasiness, and didn't know why she came to see him. Could it be that Su Qinghe had told him that he had driven him away?
So she was angry for a moment, wondering how there could be someone like him who not only blocked her marriage but also acted like a mean person. Was he here to warn herself not to do this again in the future?
What should he do then? He said that he was just worried and felt that Su Qinghe was not worthy of her, and that she should not be involved with Su Qinghe, but who was he to him and why should he care whether she got married or not?
"Sir Zhao, I came here to ask you if you had been to Fuzhou Prefecture last time." She looked at him steadily after she said that.
Zhao Yan then realized that she might know what happened last time. "I just went over to take a look when I had nothing to do."
"Is that so? But I feel bad about it. No matter what Lord Zhao thinks, I want to thank you for your kindness. Even in such a situation, you can still care so much about the people under your rule." She said.
Zhao Yan looked at her and was speechless for a moment. What did she mean by this? He didn't believe that she didn't know why he went to see her.
She talked about the people under her rule, but he would not visit other people one by one when they were sick, but only when she was sick would he worry about her, fearing that she would be uncomfortable.
So she wanted to make it clear to him that there was nothing between them, they were just a commoner and an official?
He suddenly felt a little heartbroken.
Seeing that he remained silent, Yu Huatang hesitated for a moment before finally speaking out, "Doctor Su left today. Xu Fu said that the Lord had seen him yesterday. I want to know what the Lord said to Doctor Su that made him leave in such a hurry."
Zhao Yan looked at her for a long time and said calmly, "Because I told him that he is not qualified to marry you, at least not yet. Are you displeased with me because of his leaving and are here to accuse me?"
Yu Huatang said bewilderedly, "No, I just think that Doctor Su's departure was a bit sudden. Maybe someone in our shop spread some gossip, causing him to be wronged for no reason."
"So, Miss Yu only treats him as a friend and has no romantic feelings for him?" he asked.
After hearing this, Yu Huatang was a little surprised, annoyed and unhappy. She looked up at Zhao Yan for a long time without saying a word.
Zhao Yan thought she was angry with him, so he said, "He had bad intentions to begin with. He was already engaged in Suzhou, but he still wanted to have a good relationship with you. I just told him in advance how difficult it would be. He knew it wouldn't work out, so he left. So he didn't have the determination."
Of course, he wouldn't tell her that he had made up a story that they had been very loving in the past and that she would never forget him.
Yu Huatang was a little shocked. She couldn't believe that Zhao Yan would actually go and tell Su Qinghe this.
It's true that she had a vague feeling yesterday that Su Qinghe seemed to have some intentions. But since he hadn't said it out loud, she wouldn't have any wild guesses. Now that Zhao Yan had confirmed it and Su Qinghe had left, she felt relieved.
She even felt a little grateful to Zhao Yan.
She hadn't thought about how she would feel about Su Qinghe. As she said yesterday, she just admired him as a person.
What she didn't want even more was that she had accidentally ruined someone else's marriage. If that were the case, she would be unable to sleep or eat.
Now that Su Qinghe has returned, he will propose to the girl he has chosen. This is what she would like to see, and this is also his original life.
She felt relieved, but she didn't want to say thank you to Zhao Yan.
Finally, he just said, "I understand. I'm just a little confused."
Seeing that she was about to leave, Zhao Yan grabbed her hand and blurted out, "Huatang, I'm leaving too."
He looked at her sincerely, even with a hint of reluctance. Yu Huatang tilted his head and said, "Yesterday I received a letter from my father saying that his transfer has ended and that I should return to Beijing immediately."
Yu Huatang was stunned for a moment, then she pulled it out of his hand and chuckled, "Congratulations, sir. When you came here, we all knew that you would eventually return. Now your achievements here are obvious to all, and I believe you will be promoted step by step.
