When I met Li Dongming in the outer courtyard, it was the first time Yao Ji stepped out of Tingtao Courtyard in half a month.
The young man sat in a wide open yellow rosewood chair, shirt and trousers, and a gray dark-patterned vest. His hair was short-cut and a pair of gold-rimmed glasses were worn on the bridge of his nose. This outfit was common in the embassy districts of the capital or Shanghai, but he undoubtedly looked out of place in the lush old mansion of the Lu family.
Several maids who followed Yao Ji couldn't help but look at him quietly, and even Mother Li looked at him several times.
Senior, Yao Ji called him, "I haven't seen you for a long time, and the senior's style is even better than the past."
Li Dongming smiled slightly: You are more outstanding than a few years ago.
He couldn't help but feel a little surprised when he saw that Yao Ji was wearing a dress or a cheongsam, but a big-sleeved shirt and horse-faced skirt, but he didn't say much.
The two of them sat down and said a few words. Li Dongming said: Since you have returned to the country, why don’t you notify me? Neither Nansheng nor the others know about it. There is still something to come to Lu Wu. I remember that your ancestral home is here. Since you are here, you will come to visit the old lady and greet the old man. Only then will you know that you are at home.
Yao Ji was not easy to answer. She was deceived by her parents. When she returned to China, she just wanted to go back to see her grandmother quickly, so she didn't have the time to notify her friends.
Li Dongming was her senior in college. Although the two were not in the same major, they were all international students from the Celestial Empire, so they were particularly close.
Later, Li Dongyan returned to China after studying and worked as a reporter in Shenbao. He has not seen him for several years.
She turned around: What's going on with senior? If I can help, I must tell me.
Li Dongming hesitated for a moment: It was a piece of news that I was chasing.His gaze flew over the servants waiting behind Yao Ji, and then he kept silent.
Yao Ji understood and looked at Li's mother: Thank you for your hard work, mom comes with me, so I'm talking to my friends here. Why wouldn't my mother take Xiao Tang and the others to the corridor to eat some tea fruits?
Li's mother was willing to let her go out of Tingtao Courtyard, so she naturally had to prevent her from slipping away, so there were people following her along the way.
At the moment she asked everyone to go out. Although Li's mother was unwilling, she heard the old man's instructions that the visitor was a reporter from Shanghai. He could not help but see the clues and try to follow the young grandmother as much as possible.
So Mother Li paused and respectfully lowered her head: That old slave thanked the young grandma for being polite.
As soon as she left, Li Dongming frowned: Young grandma?
Yao Ji could only smile bitterly: Me, cough... My family has a engagement with the Lu family. Look, I live here now and will marry the Lu family’s young master in June.
engagement?Upon hearing this, Li Dongming's brows frowned even more. Are you childhood sweethearts and Young Master Lu, and you have already fallen in love with each other?But when you were in English, why didn’t you hear me mention it?
Seeing Yao Ji silent, he hesitated and said: Could it be just the order of his parents?Qi Yao, this is not like you. You have always been very propositions, how could it be...
This matter is a long story.Yao Ji interrupted him.
If she had told Li Dongming about her current dilemma, there might be some opportunity to solve it.If he was just trapped in the Lu family, Yao Ji would have told her without hesitation.But now...
Thinking of Lu Hanshen, she somehow brought the conversation over: Senior, don’t worry, I am a living person. If you are not happy, your family can tie me into the bridal chamber.
The senior said just now, is this to investigate a piece of news?
Li Dongming looked at her and saw her smiling slightly, so he had to take over the conversation: Yes, this matter...it will start more than a year ago...
Li Dongming resigned from Shenbao more than a year ago. Together with a few like-minded friends, he wanted to create a newspaper that specializes in reporting crimes to raise public vigilance and expose the truth of the underground world.
Just as he was collecting news materials, he was involved in a series of cases of forcing good men to become prostitutes.
It turns out that among the three religions and the capital, a drug called Huanmeng San began to be circulated from unknown time. Once this drug is taken, its effect is similar to that of aphrodisiacs, and it can last forever.
More importantly, there is a saying among people taking the medicine called "seed".
'kind'?
Yes, Li Dongming nodded. The "seed" could control the "slave" of Huanmeng San. As long as you get close to the "seed", the "slave" will be irritated and will be unable to extricate yourself.
It is through this method that children and women who were abducted or sold were sent to fireworks alleys and some unbearable private clubs after training, and their lives were destroyed.
As Li Dongming investigated deeply and learned more about the more things he became, the more indignant he became.
With a few colleagues, he vowed to find out the source of Fantasy and kill this evil drug in the cradle.
I have been investigating Fan Meng Powder this year, and I just found out recently that this medicine may have been leaked from Lu Wu.
Li Dongming said: That's why I came here from thousands of miles away. Qi Yao, you grew up here since childhood, but what clues do you have?
clue……
Yao Ji didn't dare to answer Li Dongming. When she heard him talk about Huanmeng San, her first reaction was that she might have been given this medicine too!
The inexplicable desire and the irrepressible hunger... aren't these just signs of being infected with the Fantasy Dream Solved?
Thinking about it now, although she drank some wine in Luzhai the night before, she was far from being in chaos.But at that time, she felt embarrassed and was overwhelmed by the marriage, so she didn't go into it.
After that, she fell in love with Lu Han several times in a row, and each time she took the initiative and obedient, and seemed irresistible.
However, according to Li Dongming, people with traditional Chinese medicine will be confused when the effect of the medicine occurs, and she is completely different.
And... and she didn't resist Lu Hanshen. Could it be that she was actually very happy in her heart...
Thinking of this, his thoughts became more and more confused. Yao Ji found that she didn't want to doubt Lu Hanshen at all. How could that person... do such a despicable thing?
She calmed down and said to Li Dongming: I have no clue yet. Can the senior tell me in detail? What does that Fantasy San look like? If there are clues in the future, I will definitely notify the senior as soon as possible.
After Li Dongming said goodbye and left, it was already dark.
Old Master Lu personally came out to entertain him, and Mr. Qi was also accompanied by the guests. During the meal, the guests and hosts were all happy and harmonious.
The two of them naturally did not say anything about the matter. Thinking of their suspicion, Yao Ji secretly reminded Li Dongming not to live in the Lu Qi family.
Her heart was heavy and she slowly walked towards Tingtao Courtyard. The thick night enveloped the ancient house. I don’t know what was in the dark, which made people feel cold.
Maybe she was thinking too much, maybe the facts were even more ugly. In any case, Yao Ji was not an ostrich who would bury her head in the sand.She doesn't want to doubt Lu Hanshen, which does not mean she will turn a blind eye.
Xiao Tang, when she walked into Tingtao Courtyard, she settled in front of Lu Hanshen's main room, took my clothes over, and I'll rest here tonight...
