Chapter 2153 Discovering the Secret
Chapter 2153 Discovering the Secret
"Father?" Shangguan Chu looked puzzled. She searched around the old house for a long time, but she couldn't find the county magistrate after searching all the rooms. Suddenly, Shangguan Chu realized that the county magistrate was missing.
Her face turned pale, her lips trembled, and she collapsed and was about to run out to find someone.
"Father, nothing can happen to you."
Shangguan Chu's steps were untidy and she twisted her ankle accidentally and fell to the ground. The back of her hand rubbed against the ground, leaving bloody marks. She cried in pain but did not dare to stop.
He got up and wanted to go out, but when he reached the door, he was worried that he had not searched the house thoroughly.
"What if my father is hiding in some corner and is hungry, and I can't go out..." Shangguan Chu bit his lip, dragged his injured body back to the yard, and dug deep into the ground to look for him.
Meanwhile, on the other side.
Liu Mochen was also drunk and walked to the classroom in a daze.
"Why am I back in the classroom?" Liu Mochen muttered softly. His vision was blurry and double vision appeared. He could only hold on to the table and chair and move step by step.
As if by some strange coincidence, he ended up sitting in Shangguan Chu's seat.
He stared at the spot in a daze, his hand unconsciously reaching into the wooden box belonging to that spot, rummaging through it, and taking out all of Shangguan Chu's things.
Soon, he pinched a piece of soft cloth. Liu Mochen looked puzzled and pulled hard. The cotton strip was pulled out. He was shocked and his eyes widened instantly.
"This... this is Guishui cloth. Shangguan Chu is a man, how could he..." Liu Mochen murmured, and threw the cloth away as if he was scalded.
He had seen Guishui cloth before, so he recognized this thing. After confirming again and again that he was not mistaken, a terrible thought emerged in Liu Mochen's mind.
"Could it be that Shangguan Chu is actually a woman, and she is Shangguan Qing?"
Once this thought came to his mind, he could no longer suppress it. Liu Mochen stood up suddenly. The violent movement caused the chair to be pulled, making a harsh sound, which was particularly abrupt in the empty night.
But he didn't care too much. He suppressed the shock in his heart and wanted to further verify the truth of this matter.
Thinking of this, Liu Mochen silently put his things back, left the classroom, and after washing his face with cold water to wake himself up, he rushed to Shangguan Chu's house.
He had been to the old house before, so he found the place quickly and was familiar with the route.
What Liu Mochen didn't expect was that at this moment, the door of the old house was wide open. In the yard, Shangguan Chu's figure flashed from time to time. She seemed to be muttering something, and she was so anxious that she was sweating profusely, and blood was flowing from her hands.
Such an embarrassing appearance frightened Liu Mochen, and he subconsciously shouted at her: "Shangguan Chu, what's wrong with you?"
Shangguan Chu, who was originally panicking and looking for someone everywhere, stopped when he heard the noise.
Seeing Liu Mochen coming over, Shangguan Chu's eyes flickered and he grabbed his wrist with such force that it hurt.
"Liu Mochen, help me, my father is missing, I have searched the entire yard, please help me find him."
Shangguan Chu's legs went weak and she almost knelt down to him. She even turned the doghouse upside down but couldn't find the county magistrate. At this moment, her little face was full of tear marks, which made people feel pity for her.
Seeing her like this, Liu Mochen was a little confused, but at the same time he subconsciously reached out and supported Shangguan Chu: "Don't worry, I'll help you find it."
"Tell me first, what happened?"
Now, he has forgotten the purpose of coming here. He was sobered up by the fright. Seeing Shangguan Chu sad, he felt sad too.
"I, I just came back and found that my father was missing. I don't know what happened, but father...he is in bad condition and can't stay outside for long. I'm afraid something will happen to him." Shangguan Chu's tone was anxious and trembling slightly, which made people feel distressed.
Seeing this, Liu Mochen wiped her tears silently and softened his tone: "I will send someone out to look for her now. Everything will be fine. Don't panic."
"I will go with you."
Shangguan Chu couldn't wait any longer, so he pulled Liu Mochen's hand and walked out faster than him. Liu Mochen was forced to follow.
This time, he actually sent out all his forces to help her find someone.
But after searching for a whole night, I found nothing.
Chen Changli and Wan Shufang only found out about Liu Mochen's big move the next day. They had a wonderful anniversary last night and did not return to the old house until the early morning.
As soon as I returned to the house, I saw the distraught Shangguan Chu and Liu Mochen who was silently accompanying her.
After learning everything, the two men's faces changed drastically. They immediately mobilized their secret guards to help search, and it was not until the afternoon that they finally found the county magistrate in a dilapidated temple.
Wan Shufang rushed over, saw him unconscious, and took his pulse.
After a while, Wan Shufang breathed a sigh of relief: "Fortunately, he just fell asleep, there is no other problem. I guess he was too tired and didn't eat anything, so he fell asleep."
Hearing this, Chen Changli nodded in understanding, waved his hand, and had the county magistrate carried back.
"Be careful, don't bump into anything, otherwise Ah Chu will be sad again." Wan Shufang reminded, and the secret guards saluted together and carried the county magistrate away.
"Shufang, now that we've found the person, you can rest assured."
Hearing this, Wan Shufang sighed softly, leaned in his arms, and said sadly: "It's not a good thing to go on like this, but I don't know when the county magistrate's illness will be cured."
She had seen Shangguan Chu's collapse, and she truly regarded the girl as a relative and did not want her to suffer any more.
"Do your best and leave the rest to fate. Perhaps this is what they should go through." Chen Changli said in a low voice, touching her head gently, as if to comfort her.
"I just hope the calamity can be resolved soon. Ah Chu had a hard time finding the medicine."
Wan Shufang looked outside for a long time, and after that, she pulled away from Chen Changli's arms. The two of them left the ruined temple and followed the secret guards.
At the same time, Shangguan Chu returned to the old house and heard the news. He was immediately relieved: "That's great, I hope my father is okay."
As she spoke, her knees went weak, the breath she had been holding dropped, and her whole body seemed to collapse, staggering, and almost falling to the ground.
Liu Mochen was so scared that he quickly supported her.
"Shangguan Chu, how are you? Don't scare me."
"Your father is fine now, and they will be back soon." He spoke anxiously, and his hands that were holding Shangguan Chu's waist were trembling slightly.
It was not until he saw Shangguan Chu shaking his head that the heavy stone in his heart finally fell to the ground. When he relaxed, he instantly felt that the waist in his hands was thin and soft.
It seemed like it would break at any time if he pinched it hard. Liu Mochen took a breath of cold air, his eyes dim as he stared blankly at Shangguan Chu in front of him.
Suddenly I remembered what I saw when I was drunk yesterday and why I came to Shangguan's house.
"Shangguan Chu, is she really a woman?"
This thought popped up in my mind again and lingered for a long time, and my hands moved subconsciously.
