Chapter 123 Fellow Villager
"Sorry for intruding on me, young lady." The man smiled and bowed, then raised his eyes to look at her, not hiding his amazement at all, "Sorry for intruding on me, beautiful lady."
"My name is Cui Huailang, nice to meet you, young lady."
"Thank you for the rescue, sir."
Although Ling Qingyan didn't know where this man suddenly appeared from, he looked quite handsome, with red lips, white teeth, a high nose bridge, a pair of slightly upturned phoenix eyes, and a teardrop mole under the corner of his eye, which added a touch of charm to his handsome face.
He was wearing a red gilded brocade robe and holding a landscape folding fan, looking like a young master from a wealthy family.
"Sir, this is my wife. You really misunderstood." The strong man stood up and said.
"Do you think I'm a fool? How could such a beautiful girl like you be attracted to you? She's not blind."
Cui Huailang waved his hand, too lazy to talk nonsense with him, and said in a lazy voice: "Chinese, mathematics, send him to see the official."
Chinese? Mathematics? ! !
Ling Qingyan's pupils suddenly shrank, and she stared at Cui Huailang with wide eyes, frozen in place.
She never thought that she would meet someone of the same generation as her in this world.
Ling Qingyan failed in her mission and she didn't know if she could go back.
Many people here were nice to her, she made good friends and watched them fulfill their dreams.
But she couldn't go back, so she could only keep comforting herself that it was good to live on. She was alive no matter where she was. She would be dispensable if she went back, so it was also good to spend an ordinary life here.
If you are lucky, you can make new friends and meet new and interesting people.
But at this moment, Ling Qingyan heard the man in front of her calling the names of the two guards.
Ling Qingyan couldn't describe how she felt.
In this world, there are people who come from the same place as her, and who can empathize with him at the deepest level.
After a long drought, it rains; like meeting an old friend in a foreign land.
Ling Qingyan's eyes were filled with sadness, and she grabbed Cui Huailang's arm. Cui Huailang felt a little dizzy when the beautiful girl suddenly grabbed him.
Ling Qingyan's voice trembled slightly, her chest heaving violently as she asked, "Who came up with the names of your two guards?"
Cui Huailang was immersed in joy the moment before, but when he heard the girl in front of him ask this, he was stunned.
Then, there was a surprise.
His surprise was no less than Ling Qingyan's.
Quite excited even.
"Oh my god! Fellow countryman!!"
This restaurant was opened by Cui Huailang. He invited Ling Qingyan into the restaurant, which had the best private room, the best wine, and fruit snacks. The two sat opposite each other.
"I really didn't expect that there is another person in this world who has traveled through time like me! I said that today is a good day and good things will definitely happen. Sure enough, not only did a hero save the beauty, but he is also a time traveler." Cui Huailang was very happy.
His restaurant has excellent sound insulation, and Cui Huailang wanted to pour out all his experiences of the past few days.
"I've been reborn as the second son of the Cui family, a wealthy merchant from Yizhou. Hey, what a coincidence! I was considered a wealthy second-generation in our time. I had some money, but I was having too much fun racing and the car flipped over. At that time, I was so nervous that I almost felt nauseous. Then, a flash of white light appeared. I don't know how, but when I opened my eyes again, I was reborn as the dandy second son of the wealthy merchant Cui."
"He was a rich second-generation guy, right? The way we died was a bit similar. He went horse racing with a few other young masters, and then fell to his death. He fell towards me."
Cui Huailang sighed, and for a moment he didn't know whether he was lucky or unlucky.
"Of the thousands of roads, safety comes first."
His handsome face looked a little melancholy.
But he had nothing to complain about. After all, it was a tragedy caused by his own carelessness. He died young and had not yet married. He was already very grateful that God had given him another life to continue his life at the age of 22.
This time he definitely cherishes his life.
He traveled through time a year ago, and named his guards Chinese Language and Mathematics out of hope that there might be someone in this world as lucky as him.
But he had spent a year here, and no one was from the same generation as him.
He started a business in ancient times and achieved some success. He boosted the economy of Yizhou to some extent and benefited the people.
He had no hope, but the appearance of the woman in front of him really surprised and delighted him.
The first time in his life that he acted as a hero and saved a beauty, the person he saved was actually from another world and the same era as him.
What is this? It's destiny!
God must have been blessing him, thinking that he had been too careless in his life and had not yet met the woman of his destiny, and that the bond between them was too deep, so he was able to meet her.
The more Cui Huailang thought about it, the more excited he became, and his face turned a little red.
"Mr. Cui, what's wrong with you? Are you feeling unwell?" Ling Qingyan asked with concern.
"No!" Cui Huailang laughed, "I was just a little emotional and excited at the moment."
"Miss, tell me about yourself too. How did you get here?" Cui Huailang asked with a smile.
Ling Qingyan pursed her lips.
She hesitated whether to lie.
Compared with those cunning people, Cui Huailang is a simple one and has a good life. He is a rich second-generation in both his lives.
But she is different from him. She came from a book, and it was not a serious book.
Moreover, she accidentally clicked on something she shouldn't have clicked, and then was left behind by the human traffickers' system to complete a task.
The mission also failed.
She deceived many people, and there were many people who coveted her, and they were all of high status.
Although Cui Huailang is from the same generation as her, he is a businessman after all. If she tells him the truth.
What if this young man betrays me and brings those people from the capital here?
Although he still looks quite sincere at the moment, it's very cordial for fellow villagers to meet.
But still keep an eye on it.
Ling Qingyan started lying again.
"My name is Gu Qingxi. Like you, I also traveled through time. I'm an orphan with only a portion of the property left by my parents. I have some unfriendly relatives in the capital who want to take over my property. I fled all the way to Yizhou, hoping to settle down there."
"I'm still looking at houses, thinking about doing some business in the future. Mr. Cui's business is booming, and I hope Mr. Cui will help me in the future."
Ling Qingyan's smile was harmless.
Maybe she got the hang of lying with those people, now she can lie easily.
After all, they have not known each other for long. When she completely trusts him in the future, Ling Qingyan will tell him the truth.
Cui Huailang was overjoyed when he heard the girl's words and spoke in a cheerful tone.
"Miss Gu, you can come to me if you have any questions. I will tell you everything I know."
Cui Huailang thought of something and said:
"You're looking for a house, right? My house is right next to the Cui Mansion, and there's a house with a nice view. They're moving to the capital in the next two days and are looking for a buyer. Miss Gu, you can go and take a look and see if it suits your taste."
"After all, we've been neighbors for so many years, and the Cui family has a good relationship with them. If I act as a matchmaker, he won't charge you too much. And although Yizhou is a relatively stable prefecture, you're just an orphan, and a wealthy orphan at that. It's still too dangerous."
"Living next to the Cui family, we can look after each other."
"If nothing else, safety can be guaranteed. Our Cui family is a well-known and prestigious family in Yizhou. Those bandits and human traffickers will definitely not dare to cause trouble near the Cui Mansion!"
