Zhong Lingyu remembered that he put the seal on the table.

Why is it missing?

it's wired!

You can't just run away on your own, right?

Zhong Lingyu searched for it for a long time, but still couldn't find it.

She looked sad.

Uncle Huo comforted: [Little Miss, you are tired today, you might as well rest first. Maybe you can find it if you come back tomorrow. 】

It was already late at night, and Zhong Lingyu was really tired after a whole day of work.

She searched for another ten minutes, but still couldn't find it, so she said, "Forget it, I'll go back to bed first and look for it tomorrow."

Uncle Huo nodded and left the study with her.

He watched her enter the house, then turned and left.

However, Uncle Huo did not return to the house.

Instead, he went to the gate of Yunzhai.

There was a Pontiac parked in an inconspicuous dark place near the door.

Uncle Huo stepped forward and got into the car.

He took off his old clothes, revealing his wrinkled skin.

Then, he raised his hand and peeled off the skin on his face and body.

A handsome face appeared in the dim light, showing no anger or authority.

Adjutant Li, who was sitting in the driver's seat, turned around and shouted: "Young Marshal!"

There were thin beads of sweat on Shen Huaizhou's forehead, and his face was as red as heat.

Adjutant Li couldn't help but said: "The weather in Shaocheng is too hot. Although this complete set of human-like leather masks is lifelike, it will be sweltering and prone to heat stroke if worn for a long time. If you want to see Miss Lingyu, just meet her directly."

"It's not as easy as you say." Shen Huaizhou said tiredly.

Adjutant Li was puzzled, "What?"

Shen Huaizhou glanced at him and slowly closed his eyes, "Do you think that when I came here, I had to go through Haicheng in a roundabout way. If it is more convenient, I would just come here directly from Yuncheng."

Adjutant Li thought for a while and then understood the reason.

Originally, the young marshal temporarily returned Miss Lingyu to Shaocheng in order to hide her traces and protect her safety.

Therefore, the young marshal not only took a long way to come, but also specially dressed up in disguise so that his whereabouts would not be exposed, nor would the whereabouts of Miss Lingyu be exposed.

In this way, it will not violate the young commander's original intention.

He said: "Young Marshal, in fact, you don't have to come to Shaocheng to see Miss Lingyu. People here will send telegrams from time to time anyway. As long as you know that Miss Lingyu is doing well, that's all. Why bother? , it’s too hard to wear such a heavy dummy skin.”

These days, the young marshal spends most of his time in the boat.

After arriving in Shaocheng, he didn't take any rest and just hung around Miss Lingyu all day long.

Everyone is very haggard.

The young marshal is physically strong, but an ordinary person would have been unable to bear it and fell ill long ago.

Shen Huaizhou is not stupid either.

He knows it's hard work.

But he missed her so much that he would lose sleep at night.

Just looking at her made him happy.

However, this little heartless person actually took the thing that Chen Tingze gave her.

I really wanted to piss him off to death.

Shen Huaizhou took out a seal from his pocket.

It was the one Zhong Lingyu was looking for.

He handed the seal to Adjutant Li, "I know it's worth it. Find a better craftsman and make it exactly the same, then give it to me."

Adjutant Li nodded, "Yes, Marshal, now..."

"It's time to go back to Yuncheng." Shen Huaizhou said in a serious tone.

After being delayed for several days, things must have piled up in Yuncheng.

However, it was worth it to be able to spend so many days with Zhong Lingyu.

Adjutant Li said: "Young Marshal, as soon as you leave, Miss Lingyu will definitely doubt Uncle Huo..."

"Ask Xiao Wu to tell Zhong Lingyu that Uncle Huo has found traces of his wife and wants to find her. I also left a letter for Zhong Lingyu."

"Okay, got it."

Adjutant Li started the car and drove away.

The next day, Zhong Lingyu got up early and went to the study to look for seals.

But still not found.

Thinking that there were still many things to be busy with today, Zhong Lingyu sighed and had to give up.

She went to have breakfast.

These days, Uncle Huo cooks.

Zhong Lingyu loves to eat the food cooked by Uncle Huo.

But the taste of breakfast has changed.

It was obviously not done by Uncle Huo.

Zhong Lingyu asked: "Xiao Wu, didn't Uncle Huo cook breakfast today?"

Xiao Wu lowered his head slightly, took out a piece of paper from his arms, and handed it to Zhong Lingyu, "Uncle Huo asked me to give you this letter. He left early in the morning."

"gone?"

Zhong Lingyu frowned.

She took the letter and opened it. Sure enough, it was Uncle Huo's handwriting: [Little Miss, I told you before, I have been looking for my wife. My friends in the world contacted me and said they had the whereabouts of my wife. , I'm sorry for leaving without saying goodbye. I wish the lady well. 】

Zhong Lingyu felt a sense of loss for no reason.

She also wanted to say that she was going to purchase some items needed to open a wine shop today.

Uncle Huo had done business in Shaocheng, so he must be familiar with the business, and she wanted to ask for advice.

Unexpectedly, Uncle Huo suddenly left silently.

That's all, there's no harm in taking Xiaowu out on the street.

Zhong Lingyu had another busy day.

Everything is decided by her.

She was exhausted.

Fortunately, everything went smoothly. In the evening, she and Xiao Wu returned to Yunzhai.

In the evening, Zhong Lingyu took his usual walk.

However, she always felt that something was missing.

Looking back, I saw that Uncle Huo was probably missing a tall and loyal servant who made people feel safe.

Zhong Lingyu felt it was amazing.

It was clear that she and Uncle Huo had not known each other for long, but she somehow got used to his presence very quickly.

Maybe it's because she hasn't experienced her father's love since she was a child, so Uncle Huo made her see the shadow of her father?

Apart from this reason, Zhong Lingyu could not think of any other reason.

She sat on the swing, looking at the moonlight, thinking deeply.

She wants to eat the food he cooks and also wants him to be her adviser in business.

It seems that with Uncle Huo here, she can do everything with half the effort.

But Uncle Huo left.

Pity!

I don’t know when Uncle Huo will come back.

In the blink of an eye, more than a month has passed.

The weather in Shaocheng is wet and cold.

The wine shop opened by Zhong Lingyu is about to open.

She was so busy that she had no time to rest, and even stayed at her desk planning late at night.

After all, the body is not made of iron, Zhong Lingyu is tired and sick.

She caught a cold and suddenly developed a high fever.

Wang Ma brought the soup.

After Zhong Lingyu drank it, he fell asleep.

Dimly, she felt that her cheeks were itchy and hot.

There seemed to be something lingering on her cheek.

Slowly opening his eyes, the itchy and hot feeling suddenly disappeared.

She saw a vague, tall shadow.

Zhong Lingyu murmured subconsciously: "Shen Huaizhou?"

The person in front of him didn't speak.

Zhong Lingyu thought it was because she was sick and was confused, so she subconsciously rubbed her eyes.

My eyes are getting clearer and clearer.

A wrinkled and weathered face suddenly came into view.

A hint of surprise flashed before Zhong Lingyu's eyes, "Uncle Huo, you are back!"
