After marrying the hunter, he became more and more abnormal

Chapter 229 Keep it a secret for now...

"That's right." Xia Mo had an expression that said 'you didn't just realize it now, did you?', which immediately made Yu Ge'er's frown relax and he smiled.

But this peaceful smile didn't last long before it suddenly disappeared. Yu Ge'er looked into the distance, took the initiative to omit the part about his broken heart, and said in a sad tone:

"Didn't I help out in my father's shop today? I accidentally saw the man who was engaged to Sister Yingying. He brought a strange woman to the shop to pick out jewelry."

Xia Mo narrowed his eyes, a hint of coldness appeared in his eyes, but he quickly suppressed it and asked, "Are you sure it's him?"

Yu Ge'er turned around, stared into Xia Mo's eyes and said earnestly: "It's him, I won't make a mistake, he is Gu Wenlang, Sister Yingying has always called him Gu Lang."

"At that time, they often walked together, and I often followed them around, so even if he had been gone for a few years and his appearance had become more mature, I would never have made a mistake!"

"Well, don't worry, I believe you." Seeing that Yu Ge'er was a little excited, Xia Mo looked at him calmly and asked, "His name is Gu Wenlang?"

"That's right, he is from Dashui Village. He was the one who showed his affection to Sister Yingying first, but he made Sister Yingying wait for him for five years without any news, and he turned around and got married and had children!"

When he said the latter part, Yu Ge'er almost gritted his teeth.

Xia Mo frowned when he heard this, and couldn't help but recall the time when they went to pick mustard greens together, and the sweet yet bitter smile that Sister Yingying had shown.

Sister Yingying, she really likes that guy, right?

Xia Mo lowered his eyelids, suppressed his anger, and said: "Getting married and having children, are you saying that the strange woman with him is his wife? Did you go up and question her?" Yuger said it so confidently, he had every reason to doubt it.

"Yeah." Yu Ge'er pulled the corner of his mouth and smiled bitterly, "But they still escaped."

"We had an argument in the shop. He refused to admit that he was Gu Wenlang and said that he was Gu Yi, Zhao Xier's husband... Zhao Xier was the woman who picked out the hairpin."

When Yu Ge'er said this, he lowered his head and started to look sad again, which made Xia Mo want to rub his little head.

"You can never wake up a person who is pretending to be asleep." Xia Mo comforted him, "Since you ran into him in the bed, it means that he should be in Qinghe County, unless they left overnight."

Yu Ge'er pursed his lips and said "hmm", then said angrily: "How could he do this? Sister Yingying is so good, even if...even if he has fallen in love with someone else, he should make it clear."

"Ze Ge'er, what should we do now? I don't know whether I should tell Sister Yingying? I'm afraid she can't bear it..." Yu Ge'er looked at Xia Mo for help, his eyes full of worry.

Xia Mo's eyes were slightly cold, but he said truthfully: "This matter is indeed difficult to handle, especially since we don't know where he is hiding now."

Hearing this, Yuger's face frowned even more.

"Should I hide it from Sister Yingying? I don't want to... The most hateful thing is those people who deliberately blocked my way! If they hadn't obstructed me, Gu Wenlang would never have been able to escape!"

"No, I won't hide it." Xia Mo shook his head and said in a serious tone: "Since we have discovered it, we can't just sit back and let Sister Yingying continue to live by her promise. This is not friendship."

"Yeah! I think so too!" Yu Ge'er nodded heavily and looked at Xia Mo again, "Then how do we tell her? I'm afraid I won't be able to grasp the right degree..."

No matter how you look at it, this matter is like stabbing Sister Yingying in the heart. He is afraid that Sister Yingying will be upset after he tells it.

How could Xia Mo not think of what Yuger thought of?

If it wasn't true love, if he wasn't really in my heart, who would be stupid enough to believe the most empty and unreliable words? Moreover, this was an era with strict rules on marriage.

Xia Mo thought for a moment, then said in a deep voice: "Don't tell her for now. Brother Chuan has a lot of connections. If you trust me, we'll have someone investigate first. If nothing is found, we'll discuss how to tell Sister Yingying."

Being hurt in love is certainly painful, but it would be foolish to stay with a scumbag for the rest of your life. So no matter whether you can find Gu Wenlang or not, you have to tell Sister Yingying about this eventually.

If it were someone else, Xia Mo might not take it so seriously, but not Liu Yingying. She is the first person besides Ling Chuan to stand up and defend him.

Such a good sister deserves to be cherished.

"How long will it take? I'm afraid I can't hide it. Sister Yingying has very sharp eyes." Yuger frowned. They grew up together, so he had no confidence that he could hide it from Sister Yingying.

"Indeed, you are so easy to understand." Xia Mo agreed.

"..." The naive Yu Ge'er was heartbroken.

Seeing him like this, Xia Mo coughed lightly, "Well, just stay normal, I'll ask them to do it as soon as possible, there should be results soon."

"Okay, I'll try my best... Ze'er, I'm lucky to have you, otherwise I might lose all my hair and not know what to do."

Xia Mo smiled at him, "So don't carry things alone. We are friends, one more person means more strength. Besides, Sister Yingying is your sister, so she is not my sister, right?"

"...Yes, she is." Yuger suddenly felt like crying, thinking, if only Zeger and Brother Ling were also in the shop at that time, that way, the unfaithful man would definitely not be able to escape.

"Don't worry, nothing will happen. Maybe Sister Yingying is stronger than we think." Xia Mo looked at the sunset, then lowered his eyes, looked at the stream reflecting the sunset glow, and said softly.

Yu Ge'er also looked over and forced a smile: "I hope so."

After the matter was made clear, the two were not in a hurry to go back, because Xia Mo saw that Yu Ge'er was still listless, with sadness between his brows.

Maybe Yu Ge'er himself has something on his mind.

Xia Mo thought about it and decided that since he didn't want to say anything, there was no need for him to ask any more questions. He could just accompany him to relax.

So they strolled along the stream until dusk fell, and then went back because they were afraid their families would worry.

"Thank you, Ze Ge'er." When they parted, Yu Ge'er gave Xia Mo a relieved smile.

Xia Mo also smiled back: "Silly child, what are you thanking me for? Go back quickly, it's too late and your aunt will be worried."

Yu Ge'er snorted in dissatisfaction, "I'm not a child, and you're not much older than me. Let's go, let's go. Brother Ling will probably treat me like this after seeing that I've occupied you for so long."

After saying that, Yu Ge'er raised his eyebrows, his eyes narrowed, and he looked cold and arrogant, which made Xia Mo laugh out loud, "You dare to tease me."

Yu Ge'er stuck out his tongue, muttered "No way" and ran away. After he ran far away, he turned back and waved at Xia Mo, telling him not to stand there stupidly and to go home quickly.
