Leng Yan looked at her and replied, "It's all fixed. Senior, is there something you need at your mother-in-law's house?"
Shangguan Wu said, "I've come to check on the drinking water problem."
She discovered that the family's water came from a mountain stream. There were no pipes or bamboo rafts; it was just a small ditch. Countless animals had drunk from the water along the way from the mountain to the reservoir. Although the water in the reservoir looked clear, it was full of bacteria. If people drank too much of it, they would definitely get sick.
Seeing her frown, Leng Yan said gently, "After my senior told me last time, I told my mother-in-law not to drink raw water, but to boil it before drinking. My mother-in-law is old and it is difficult for her to go up the mountain to collect firewood, so my classmate and I came to help."
Shangguan Wu's brows relaxed, and she praised, "You're all doing great, keep it up."
All the volunteers for this "Springtime in the Medical World" charity event signed up voluntarily, which shows that they are all compassionate people.
She turned and walked outside.
Seeing that she was about to leave, Leng Yan called out to her, "Senior, if you need any help, just let me know. I live in a classroom on the third floor of the teaching building, near the stairwell."
"good."
Although Shangguan Wu agreed, if there were any problems, the people she brought would handle them all without troubling outsiders.
That afternoon, Shangguan Wu visited every household in the village.
She knew that every household had been educated on drinking water knowledge and dietary taboos.
The villagers in the mountains also have their own way of preventing snakes, insects, rodents and ants. They make their own medicinal powder. Shangguan Wu smelled it and knew what herbs it contained. They were all common herbs found in the mountains.
On the way back to school, Shangguan Wu looked up at the mountains that stretched for thousands of miles, as if he were looking at a treasure mountain.
Thinking of those precious Chinese medicinal herbs, she was somewhat tempted.
After the charity event is over, I'll go for a walk in the mountains.
Back at school, after climbing four more floors, Shangguan Wu sat in the temporary room, feeling like her legs were about to give out, as if they were filled with lead.
Knock knock—
As the knocking sounded, Anan's voice came from outside the door: "Fourth Young Madam, please open the door."
Shangguan Wu got up, walked to the door, opened it, and asked, "Is there something you need?"
"We'll bring you hot water."
Anan stepped aside, and the two men behind him carried an inflatable bathtub into the room.
After they finished setting up the bathtubs and came out, Du Wei and Meng Wu poured four buckets of hot water into the tubs. After they left, the two men who had been there earlier brought in four buckets of cold water, poured in two buckets of cold water, put the rest aside, and then left.
"Fourth Young Madam, this is what the Fourth Young Master arranged for you. Please go ahead and wash. We will stand guard in the corridor to ensure that no one disturbs you."
After Anan finished speaking, he closed the door.
Shangguan Wu looked at the nearly one-meter-high bathtub, and the corners of his mouth gradually turned up.
She tested the water temperature, added some cold water, then drew the curtains and picked up her phone to make a video call to Gu Yunzhen.
While waiting, Shangguan Wu took off her clothes and stepped into the bathtub.
When the video call connected, she was already sitting in the bathtub, her eyebrows and eyes curved into crescent shapes.
At this moment, Gu Yunzhen sat lazily in his wheelchair, watching the woman on the screen leaning over the edge of the bathtub, her eyes alluring and seductive, her gaze shimmering with a captivating charm that seemed to want to draw him in.
Gu Yunzhen's gaze deepened as he looked at her.
Thousands of miles apart, Shangguan Wu freely released signals of desire, whispering, "Husband, you're not here, but you're still so thoughtful. I'm so touched!"
When she spoke of being 'moved', she leaned back slightly, one hand covering her chest.
Upon seeing the beautiful scenery emerging from the water, Gu Yunzhen's pupils suddenly contracted. He then pressed his temples and gave a wry smile: "You did this on purpose?"
Shangguan Wu pretended not to understand: "What do you mean by 'intentionally'?"
Gu Yunzhen changed the subject: "Madam, I did five hours of rehabilitation training today, attended two meetings, didn't go out, and didn't see any outsiders."
Is he telling her whereabouts?
Shangguan Wu blinked: "You haven't rested at all?"
Gu Yunzhen shook her head: "No."
Through the phone screen, Shangguan Wu stared intently at him, then suddenly lowered her eyes, sighed, and said reluctantly, "Then honey, you should go and rest. I'm hanging up now, bye~"
Gu Yunzhen: "..."
He didn't want to end the video call; he could still chat with her all night.
"I'm not tired. I can talk to you for as long as you want."
"Will you stay with me?"
Shangguan Wu smiled, her lips curving into a smile.
Seeing the sly look in her watery eyes, Gu Yunzhen changed the words he was about to say without changing his expression: "It's Madam accompanying me. Aren't you very tired taking a bath at this time?"
Although it was an attempt to change the subject, the heartache in his eyes was clearly visible.
Shangguan Wu nodded, then shook her head: "Since we're here, it's normal to be tired. Everyone's body will be tired, but our spirits will be getting better and better. Honey, you'll never guess who I saw here!"
Gu Yunzhen spoke in a low voice: "The young lady from the Shen family who asked you for medicine?"
You know?
"They sent me the list during the National Day holiday."
Shangguan Wu looked on in surprise: "Do you have information on everyone?"
Gu Yunzhen nodded: "Mm."
He needed to know what kind of people were around her in order to avoid causing harm.
The water in the bathtub had cooled down. Shangguan Wu said earnestly, "Honey, I visited every household in the village today. If all goes well, I'll be going with my teacher to a nearby village for medical consultations tomorrow. We'll leave in the morning and return in the afternoon. If it gets late, we'll stay overnight. But I'll be taking Du Wei and the others with me. Don't worry about safety; I'll contact you as soon as I get back!"
Gu Yunzhen's eyes were deep and dark; he thought she would only stay in one place.
“Okay, I’ll wait for you,” he said.
Shangguan Wu waved her hand at him: "The water's cold, I'm not going to chat with you anymore, bye-bye."
Gu Yunzhen instructed, "Get some rest."
"I understand!"
After hanging up the video call, Shangguan Wu quickly took a quick shower, dressed herself neatly, opened the door, and let Anan and the others come in to carry the bathtub out.
Just then, Shen Xining arrived on the fourth floor.
"Sister Wu, I came to ask you to go to the cafeteria for dinner together. Did you just take a shower?"
Upon hearing this, Shangguan Wu felt as if he had returned to his high school days, so he nodded and said, "Okay, let's go."
This time, Du Wei followed her downstairs again.
Anan received a call from the Fourth Young Master, who instructed him: "Tomorrow morning, one hundred signal boosters will be airdropped. You will go with Madam and install them wherever she goes. If I cannot contact Madam, do not return."
"I guarantee the mission will be completed perfectly!"
Anan felt a chill run down his spine.
The next second, Anan lowered his voice and reported, "Fourth Young Master, that Leng Yan is quite attentive to Madam. Please send someone to investigate him."
Gu Yunzhen on the other end of the phone narrowed his dark eyes, which reflected a piercing light, and his voice was as cold as ice: "Protect the lady's safety."
