"I heard that the Zhou family's eldest daughter who just returned went missing ten years ago. She was adopted and had been living in the mountains. Her adoptive father's family was poor and she did not go to school. That place was remote and there were only a few families around. I could not find out more information. Some time ago, her adoptive father passed away, so she found her way back on her own," Song Zhi said as he played with his phone.
"Do you have any information on her adoptive father?" Fu Sen asked, frowning.
Song Zhi shook his head and said, "No. How could people living in the mountains have any photos? I didn't even find a posthumous photo of him."
"Then have you asked the people living near the adoptive father if he knows medicine?" Fu Sen looked at the information on his phone and continued to ask.
Song Zhi shook his head again. "No, because they have never seen that old man go out to treat illnesses. He almost always stays at home and rarely goes out."
Didn't know medicine? Didn't go to school? Was Zhou Yun really not the person from the mountains who saved him? Perhaps Zhou Yun was just a little more skilled?
Song Zhi suddenly scoffed and said, "This Zhou family is interesting. The real daughter is back. Why don't they cover up Zhou Yun's lack of education and ten years of upbringing in the mountains? Instead, they are promoting the return of Miss Zhou. She's coarse, uneducated, and has never gone to school. My mind has really opened up."
"Oh? Is this how the Zhou family publicizes it?" Fu Sen raised his eyebrows.
"Yes. In Deer City's celebrity circle, everyone knows that the eldest daughter of the Zhou family is ignorant and incompetent. Her behavior is vulgar and uncultured. And they even said..." Song Zhi paused and looked at Fu Sen. He said sneakily, "Said that you and Miss Zhou are both ignorant and incompetent idiots. You're a perfect match; a match made in heaven! Hahaha!"
Song Zhi laughed so hard that he bent over.
Song Zhi thought that Fu Sen would be angry, but he didn't expect Fu Sen to be so indifferent. He even rubbed his jaw with interest.
Song Zhi was dumbfounded and asked in surprise, "You're not angry? In the past, if I said that you were a couple with the eldest daughter of the Zhou family, your face would long have darkened."
The next moment, Song Zhi asked in disbelief, "Don't tell me you've taken a fancy to Zhou Yun?"
Fu Sen didn't answer. He just looked noncomittally at what little information there was on his phone.
Taken a fancy? Fu Sen wasn't sure either, but he was undoubtedly interested in Zhou Yun.
Who would believe that an ignorant and incompetent country bumpkin could have such a cold and proud figure and such clean skills?
Based on this principle, Fu Sen suspected that the person from the mountains who treated him and the sister surnamed Zhou that Xing met that day was Zhou Yun. However, these were only his guesses, so he had to prove them.
Song Zhi did not get an answer from Fu Sen, so he could only mumble to himself, "That's true. This Zhou Yun is indeed more good-looking than Zhou Cha. Her personality also seems charming, not fake, and she's also incredible..."
...
Zhou Yun, who had just entered the house, was immediately pestered by her sister, who was only a year older.
In order to express her gratitude to Zhou Yun, Chen Yuan had personally made a small cake. At this moment, she looked earnestly at Zhou Yun and said, "Yun, why don't you try it? It's my maiden attempt."
Zhou Yun felt extremely uncomfortable with the overly enthusiastic Chen Yuan. She found an excuse to say that she wanted to go to her room to rest.
Chen Yuan immediately followed closely behind and said, "Then I'll rest with you. Let's chat."
Zhou Yun looked at Chen Yuan frostily, trying to use her gaze to make Chen Yuan retreat. In the end, Chen Yuan held the cake in one hand and pulled Zhou Yun's sleeve with the other as she dragged her to Zhou Yun's room.
Chen Yuan had originally wanted to hold Zhou Yun's hand, but Zhou Yun's look was too frosty. She was afraid, so she pulled her sleeve instead.
"Don't be like this. I just want to thank you for helping me so much," Chen Yuan said, standing at the door of Zhou Yun's room.
"I'm not helping you. I just don't like to see girls being slandered. You don't have to take it to heart." Zhou Yun tried her best to draw a clear line between her and Chen Yuan.
Chen Yuan pouted and said, "No matter what, you helped me. How about this? I'll come back every weekend to play with you, okay?"
Zhou Yun's heart was racing. Her eyes flashed slightly and she suddenly asked jovially, "What's with the competition your classmates were talking about? Why did they say that you used improper means to build a relationship?"
"It's the National Singing Troupe's University Folk Music Competition. I studied music, so I participated. Only me and another classmate were selected to participate in the competition, so they said that I didn't rely on my ability, but sold my body to get it," Chen Yuan said.
