"Is this what you're talking about?"
Jiang Nuan raised her wrist and shook it in front of Chen Yi.
"Yes, that's right. This is our patriarch's heirloom, worn on the wrist of our wife. It will only be passed down to the next patriarch or his wife, never to anyone else! How did it end up in your hands? Did you steal it?"
Chen Yi said a lot of things in a huff, but Jiang Nuan only heard the three words "heirloom".
"Excuse me, did you recognize the wrong bracelet? After all, there are many bracelets that look similar, so it's not surprising that you recognized it wrong."
"Impossible, I can confirm that this is the bracelet that our lady never takes off."
Chen Yi shook his head and firmly denied it.
"What's your family head's surname?"
Now it was Jiang Nuan's turn to be confused.
This shouldn't be the case. This is the bracelet that Madam Zhuang gave her. She also said that it was just an ordinary bracelet, given to her as a reward for saving Lu Tinghao. How could it be a personal token of their Madam's life?
Besides, Mrs. Zhuang and her people are far away in Country Z, how could they have manpower in Country M? Wait, it seems that it is not impossible.
The moment the question was asked, all sorts of strange guesses flashed through Jiang Nuan's mind. It wasn't until the man in front of him said the surname of their family's head that Jiang Nuan suddenly understood.
"Our family's head's surname is Lu."
Lu? The Lu family? It couldn't be such a coincidence.
Jiang Nuan forced a stiff smile on her face.
"Is your patriarch Lu Tinghao?"
Jiang Nuan asked tentatively, with some uncertainty and doubt in her eyes.
"How do you know?"
Chen Yi stared at Jiang Nuan blankly, his mouth slightly opened into a circle, as if Jiang Nuan was a fortune-telling god.
Feng Li, who was standing by, suddenly had an idea and raised his bright eyes.
"Are you the daughter that Madam recently recognized? Are you Miss? Miss Nuannuan?"
"well?"
Jiang Nuan was shocked. "Oh my god, it's true." So what this person said about this bracelet being a family heirloom is also true? Oh my god, such a valuable thing, I must find a chance to return it to Madam Zhuang when I get back.
"It's really you!"
Chen Yi also remembered this incident, and suddenly remembered the phone call from Lu Tinghao just now asking him to find his daughter in Country M.
Then he carefully observed Jiang Nuan's reaction, and Chen Yi knew that the girl in front of him was most likely Jiang Nuan, so he spoke excitedly.
"Miss Nuannuan, I didn't expect to meet you here! The head of the family and his wife are very worried about you, and they asked us to come look for you."
"So you came here just to find me?"
"No, we are here to find Dr. Cheng on the orders of the Patriarch."
Chen Yi shook his head and explained their purpose.
Jiang Nuan nodded.
The old man had a good relationship with the Lu family, and he had traveled to Country M to curse the Lu family. Now that he had disappeared, it was no surprise that Lu Tinghao would send someone to look for him.
only--
"Why would they worry about me for no reason? I haven't contacted them."
"This... this is not particularly clear to me. The head of the family didn't explain the reason to me. He just told us to find you and bring you home."
"?"
"Did you forget your appointment to call Xiaobao Yichen and the others?"
Looking at the confused Jiang Nuan, Fu Yanci reminded her tactfully.
“!”
"No wonder! I felt like I had forgotten something important. I couldn't remember it after thinking about it for a long time."
Jiang Nuan raised his hand and patted his forehead, suddenly waking up.
After being shocked, Jiang Nuan searched everywhere for her cell phone, and then suddenly remembered that all her electronic products had been taken away by Gu Shiqing. She punched the pillow on the sofa in frustration.
Pillow: No, are you okay?
"Don't worry, I've already told Xiaobao and Yichen that you're safe. Tell them not to worry. If you're really worried, call them tomorrow morning. After all, they're probably asleep by now."
"Well, thank you."
Jiang Nuan wiped her face and said to Fu Yanci gratefully.
"Between you and me, there's no need to thank me."
Fu Yanci tilted his head slightly and looked at Jiang Nuan with obvious tenderness in his eyes.
Fu Yanli has never been good at romance. He looked at Jiang Nuan on the left, then at Chen Yi on the right, and suddenly spoke.
"It seems like you two are still in the same group."
"cough."
Jiang Nuan coughed awkwardly, trying to hide her embarrassment.
"Now that things have come to this, I think we should rest for the night and make plans tomorrow."
It seems that everything is clear. Fu Yanci came to Country M for her and has a close relationship with his master, so he lived in this house. She and Chen Yi and his group came here because they found their master's residence.
When Jiang Nuan thought about the fact that her own master actually left the house in Country M to Fu Yanci to live in, and not to herself, and that she didn't even know that he had a house here, she felt a little jealous of Fu Yanci.
She just glanced at Fu Yanci, then snorted coldly, stood up and walked towards the room upstairs.
Fu Yanci was somewhat confused by the stare. He opened his eyes wide and looked at Jiang Nuan's back innocently, not knowing what he had done wrong.
So, after Jiang Nuan came out of the shower——
"Why are you in my room?"
Jiang Nuan, fresh out of the shower, was still wearing the same outfit she'd worn before. Her hair was casually tied into a bun, revealing her slender, fair neck. As soon as the door opened, the mist from the bathroom wafted out, lingering hazily around Jiang Nuan, casting a thin veil over her.
Seeing Fu Yanci suddenly appear in her room and sitting on the stool as if nothing had happened, Jiang Nuan was a little surprised for a moment, and even her plump and round toes curled up because of nervousness.
When Fu Yanci saw Jiang Nuan coming out, he rolled his Adam's apple up and down unconsciously, then stood up and walked towards Jiang Nuan.
"Stop! Just stand there and don't come over. No, get out. Why are you coming into my room?"
Jiang Nuan clutched her sleeves and spoke without thinking.
Fu Yanci really stopped and walked obediently to the door of the room.
Seeing this, Jiang Nuan breathed a sigh of relief, but who knew that Fu Yanci actually locked the door with a "click".
Jiang Nuan's eyes suddenly widened and met Fu Yanci's meaningful eyes.
"you……"
"Nuannuan, you must be the disciple of the legendary Divine Doctor Cheng."
"Mr. Fu, you're kidding! How could I possibly be the apprentice of a legendary figure like Dr. Cheng? I'm just a university professor with my own little insights into Traditional Chinese Medicine."
"Really? I have a letter from Divine Doctor Cheng, instructing me to deliver it to his direct disciple. I originally thought you were Divine Doctor Cheng's disciple and wanted to give you the letter, but you said you weren't. So, I have no choice but to take the letter with me."
