Li Wuchang's movement of eating noodles froze for a moment, and he raised his eyes:

"Why do you ask?"

At this time, the fat man who had been silent at the counter narrowed his eyes into two slits, and said with a smile:

"Xiao Chang, you don't know, Yaoyao's girl doesn't have any friends, we were all surprised to see her bring someone over for dinner today."

Li Wuchang asked with some confusion:

"No friends? Uncle, why is that? ”

He has always felt that a sweet-looking, noble-born, and approachable girl like Yaoyao shouldn't be quite popular?

The obese man paused, and replied:

"Yaoyao, just because of her noble birth, she has been kept away by many children of the same age since she was a child, sometimes people are too famous, and it is not necessarily a good thing that her status is too high."

"After her mother passed away, she has been very lonely, so she occasionally comes to our store to eat something, chat with my mother-in-law, and spend the rest of the time at home studying tea art and calligraphy and painting."

"Oh, I still remember, Yaoyao has the only girl she can match, what's her name...... It's called Lin Han, but I don't know why that girl disappeared a few years ago......"

As the fat man was talking, Aunt Lin beside Li Wuchang suddenly stared at him and interrupted:

"Hey! That's too much! ”

"Huh?" The fat man was puzzled for a while, seemed to come to his senses, and nodded, "Oh, don't mention it." ”

At the same time, Li Wuchang had been listening quietly.

Lin Han? They really know each other.

Li Wuchang recalled the conversation between Lin Han and Meng Yao when he took Meng Yao to the tavern before the last reincarnation.

It seems that because of what should not be said, Aunt Lin and her husband stopped mentioning it.

Aunt Lin moved her chair and continued:

"Eh, that's it, Yaoyao, that girl, don't look at her in a high position, but in fact, she is also a hard-working girl, originally I thought you were her suitor."

Suitors? Li Wuchang chuckled.

How could he have that kind of thought, that kind of experience?

Because of Meng Yao's absence, the gossipy Aunt Lin instantly opened the conversation:

"That girl, she is beautiful and kind-hearted, and she is also a young lady from a big family, and she has always had many suitors with impure motives, but Yaoyao didn't pay attention to it. Ay! For example, the son of the Kujo family, who has been pestering her, and chasing after her is called a ......"

At this time, the fat man at the counter suddenly glared at her:

"I'm embarrassed to say that my mouth is bigger than a horn!"

Li Wuchang listened to the old couple singing and harmonizing, and didn't answer, just chewed the noodles quietly.

The Kujo family?

It was as if he had heard something new.

And what kind of son is that still Yaoyao's suitor?

This routine is really familiar......

At this moment, out of the corner of his eye, he noticed a person standing at the door of the store, and it turned out that Meng Yao had returned.

She looked at everyone with an apologetic expression:

"Sorry for the rudeness......"

Seeing Meng Yao come back, Aunt Lin and the others stopped the original topic and looked at Meng Yao with a smile:

"It's okay, if it's better, come back and eat it, the noodles are cold."

Meng Yao nodded, and walked back to her place to sit down, at the same time, she noticed the slightly strange expressions of everyone.

Did they just talk about something?

The more she thought about it, the more she felt that it was possible, and she wanted to ask questions, but she was embarrassed.

In this way, Meng Yao and Li Wuchang quietly finished the two bowls of beef noodles, and she stood up.

In the next minute, she and Aunt Lin argued over who would pay for the meal.

In the end, Meng Yao still couldn't resist Aunt Lin, but Meng Yao promised the other party that she would definitely pay for this meal next time.

Meng Yao glanced at Li Wuchang, and the two left the noodle shop and walked back to the street.

Because of the heavy rain at noon, the streets were still wet, and the two walked cautiously. Li Wuchang asked:

"Where next?"

"Let's go back to the house first, right?" Meng Yao pondered for a moment and asked:

"Just now...... Did Aunt Lin tell you something...... Something about me? ”

"Huh?" Li Wuchang asked quietly and rhetorically:

"Why do you say that?"

Meng Yao lowered her eyes:

"Because...... When I first came back, you all had strange expressions, as if I had done something wrong......"

Li Wuchang chuckled, thinking in his heart whether to tell the other party's little secrets.

Before he could think of a rhetoric, Meng Yao whispered:

"She must have told you...... I, I rarely have friends about it. ”

"Aunt Lin always likes to talk about me about this, so that I should make more friends......"

Meng Yao raised her eyes slightly, observed Li Wuchang's expression, and saw that it was really as she guessed, she sighed lightly:

"Yes, I admit, I do have very few friends......"

"The only people who get close to me on weekdays are my brother, Uncle You, Sister Xiaoqing, and other subordinates. Aunt Lin must have been surprised to see me bring someone to dinner tonight......"

Li Wuchang looked at her and said in a comforting tone:

"I think it's just that some people don't know you well enough, but you're a very cute girl, and you deserve to make a lot of friends."

This sentence is what he wants to say to Meng Yao from the bottom of his heart, a beautiful and kind girl like Meng Yao is indeed worthy of being liked by more people.

And it shouldn't be like people like Li Wuchang.

Being suddenly praised by Li Wuchang, Meng Yao's face was slightly red, and she said uncertainly:

"Thank you for comforting me."

"But...... Because of who I am, I'm afraid I'll never be able to do it......"

"Nope." Unexpectedly, Li Wuchang suddenly stopped, stared at Meng Yao fixedly, and blocked her words in a deep voice, "You can do it." ”

When he said this, Li Wuchang was unprecedentedly serious:

"I don't know you very well yet, but I just feel like that. To me, you're one, well......"

"A kind, reliable friend."

Meng Yao was silent for a moment, and only after a long time did she open her mouth slightly and muttered:

"Friends ......"

..........

The two walked for a while and soon returned to the Shangguan Mansion.

Li Wuchang and Meng Yao agreed that they would start serving as her personal guard tomorrow.

According to the film and television works about bodyguards and eldest ladies he had watched in his previous life, Li Wuchang knew that what he had to do now was to escort the eldest lady back to the house, and then he would go back to his home to rest.

As soon as he walked to the door of the mansion, a carriage drove towards Li Wuchang's left.

The light two-wheeled carriage slowly stopped in front of Li Wuchang and Meng Yao, and then a man came down from the back of the carriage.

Shangguan Mengren glanced at Li Wuchang, who was walking with his sister, and raised his eyebrows with a smile:

"You're Li Wuchang, right?"

Li Wuchang looked at him and asked rhetorically:

"Are you ......?"

At this time, Meng Yao beside him suddenly shouted:

"Brother, you're back!"

Only then did Li Wuchang understand that this was her brother mentioned by Meng Yao earlier, Shangguan Mengren, that is, the head of the Shangguan family.

Yumeto looked at his sister amusedly and asked:

"Where did you and Mr. Li go?"

Meng Yao hesitated for a moment and told him about Fang Cai and Li Wuchang going out for dinner.

Shangguan Mengren turned around and said a few words to the private coachman of Shangguan's family, and then the coachman pulled the horse away.

He stepped forward, pushed open the door of the mansion, looked back at Li Wuchang, and said:

"Mr. Li, aren't you in a hurry?"

"Come in, let's talk?"

Looking at this man with a smile in the corners of his eyes and a flirtatious smile, Li Wuchang didn't know what to say or how to deal with it.

Li Wuchang guessed that since the other party was Yaoyao's brother, he was also talking about saving his sister. Li Wuchang nodded and walked in with him.

The three of them walked all the way to the main courtyard of the mansion, and Shangguan Mengren came to the table in the main courtyard for receiving outsiders, took off his heavy cotton clothes casually, pulled out a chair and sat down.

He looked at his sister Meng Yao:

"Yaoyao, can you go back and rest first?"

Shangguan Mengren raised his eyebrows slightly: "I want to talk to this brother Tai about something." ”

Seeing Meng Yao's reluctance, he added:

"Say something that's interesting to men."

Meng Yao was stunned for a moment, looked at her brother with strange eyes for a while, and then raised her eyes to look at Li Wuchang.

Li Wuchang nodded at her invisibly, and Meng Yao opened her mouth slightly, wanting to say something, but in the end she swallowed back the words and turned to leave.

After Meng Yao left, Shangguan Mengren showed a smile and said:

"Brother Li, please sit down. You don't have to be rigid about etiquette. ”

Hearing this, Li Wuchang gently pulled out a chair opposite Shangguan Mengren and sat down.

"Introduce yourself." Shangguan Mengren said, "My name is Shangguan Mengren, Yaoyao's brother, and I am also the current head of the Shangguan family. ”

"Brother Li, I heard that you are a ...... Amnesiacs? ”

Li Wuchang nodded affirmatively.

An elegant kerosene lamp was placed on the ornate brown round table, and Shangguan Mengren lit it and continued:

"Need a warm cup of tea?"

"Thanks, still don't need it." Li Wuchang said.

Seeing that the kind words had been finished, Shangguan Mengren went directly to the point. He held his chin with his hand and looked at Li Wuchang with a smile:

"I heard, Brother Li, you gave birth to my sister at the hands of the wicked last night?"

Li Wuchang pulled the corners of his mouth:

"Yes, it's just a gesture."

Shangguan Mengren looked at him with interest:

"Are you the powerhouse?"

"That's right." Li Wuchang bowed his head slightly, "An ordinary right-level ability person who has forgotten many things in the past. ”

He tries to make himself very calm when answering questions, so as not to let the other party notice some clues.
