Chapter 99 The Fiancé Comes Knocking



"The medical elites gathering is scheduled for a month from now, and there will definitely be chaos during this period."

"Ganzhou City is only quiet on the surface right now. You just survived an assassination attempt, so it's best to reduce the number of times you go out and not give them any opportunity to take advantage."

He would only feel at ease after the people from the Great Medicine Valley left Ganzhou!

Lin Zao knew Tang Jian's concerns and nodded in agreement, thinking that it would be better to avoid trouble.

His only worry now is that the Great Medicine Valley knows that the hemostatic powder is a medicine from the future world and will investigate along that line.

Lin Zao saw that he still looked serious and earnest:

What are you worried about?

Lin Zao only understood after Tang Jian mentioned the hemostatic powder.

"Don't worry about that! They definitely don't know! This hemostatic powder was originally called Yunnan Baiyao. I changed the name for convenience. It was also packaged in a jar I bought from a shop when I gave it to Dr. Zhang, so there won't be any leakage."

"If they had heard the Celestial Master mention it, they would only know the name Yunnan Baiyao. If the Celestial Master had given them the prescription, then this medicine wouldn't still not exist. So I'm certain they don't know it!"

After hearing Lin Zao's explanation, Tang Jian was finally relieved.

Besides the hemostatic powder, Lin Zao also took out quite a few other things, but very few people know about them yet. Even if the people from the Great Medicine Valley came, they might not be able to discover anything.

In the days that followed, Tang Jian left early and returned late every day, while Lin Zao stayed at the General's Mansion all day except to pick up and drop off the children.

Even when picking up and dropping off the two children, Lin Zao always stayed inside the carriage and never went outside, acting cautiously in critical moments.

During this time, Lin Zao remained safe and sound, and no one was foolish enough to attempt to assassinate her.

Until this day!

The housekeeper came to report that someone was looking for her; it was a man.

"Who's looking for me? The general isn't home, tell him to go back first!"

Lin Zao couldn't think of anyone who would look for her. She hadn't been idle at home these past few days, as she had been organizing the things in her space. There were just too many things in there, and she couldn't even remember many of them.

In order to compile a list, she didn't have the time to meet with outsiders and wanted to decline.

"But···"

The housekeeper was in a bit of a dilemma.

Seeing this, Lin Zao became somewhat interested:

"how?"

"Madam, that man said... he said he is your fiancé!"

The butler bowed deeply, afraid of angering the general's wife.

After waiting for a while, he finally heard Lin Zao's voice.

"Oh? He actually came to see me in person! I'd like to have a go with him! Take him to the reception room, I'll get ready before I go!"

Lin Zao was originally waiting for Wang's steward to come to her door to ask for the Double Phoenix Mirror before she could inquire about Wang's background.

Now that her fiancé, whose identity is unknown, has come to her door, she can finally test him out!

However, she needs to prepare one thing before meeting the person.

"Yes, Madam!"

The steward became anxious when he saw that Lin Zao had actually agreed to meet the person and that she seemed to need to get ready.

As soon as he stepped outside, he beckoned someone over:

"Go find the general immediately and tell him that a man claiming to be the lady's fiancé has come to see her, and it's very urgent!"

"Yes!" The guard did not hesitate and turned to run away.

The butler then slowly went out to greet them.

Instead of dressing up as the housekeeper had imagined, Lin Zao went to the kitchen to make a dessert.

A dessert made with lotus root starch—it was exactly the one that had appeared in Lin Zao's mind at that time.

Since she could think of this, it means that this dessert had special significance for her former self. Now it's perfect to use it to test her fiancé!

When Lin Zao finished preparing her things and headed to the reception room, her so-called fiancé, Wang Xuzhi, had already been waiting for quite a while.

At the same time, Tang Jian was also riding his horse home at full speed!
