Chapter 148: Maybe
“The roast meat I made for my wife is ready. I’ll go back first,” Zhao Zhan said as he handed the other two sets of roast meat wrapped in oil paper to Fang Tianliu. “This is for you and Miss Li.”
“Zhao Zhan, it’s my good fortune to know you! Then you should go back quickly,” Fang Tianliu couldn’t hold back the smell of the roasted meat, and he hurriedly told Zhao Zhan before immersing himself in the food.
Zhao Zhan chuckled, shook his head, and returned to his residence.
“Zhao Zhan, you’re back so soon?”
When Yue Jiaojiao saw Zhao Zhan enter the room, she raised her head and asked with a smile, “Did anything fun happen in the shop today? ”
Zhao Zhan put the roasted meat on the table and went to get a basin of hot water. He wrung a handkerchief and half-squatted by the bed to wipe her hands. He said softly, “I met two people looking for someone at Carpenter Chen’s house today. They were looking for a seventeen-year-old girl, but the portrait they showed me was of the girl when she was ten years old.”
Yue Jiaojiao lowered her eyes to look at him, her eyes full of confusion. “They’re looking for me?”
“I can’t say for sure.” Zhao Zhan raised his head and carefully sized up Yue Jiaojiao. “The little girl in the painting looked angry but cute. Her eyes and brows are about fifty percent similar to yours, but the shapes of your faces are different. By the way, I saw that she was wearing an immortal locket around her neck in the painting.
The corner of Yue Jiaojiao’s forehead twitched, and her brows furrowed tightly. The sudden sharp pain made her face turn a little pale.
“Jiaojiao?” Zhao Zhan worriedly stood up and pulled her into his arms. He gently patted her back with his palm. “What’s wrong? ”
This was the second time Yue Jiaojiao had such a feeling.
She tightened her grip on Zhao Zhan’s arms and buried her head in his arms, muffled. “My head hurts a little. Forget it, I’ll take a look the next time I meet those two.”
“Not for the time being,” Zhao Zhan told her about the suspicion of the two people. “I’m worried what they might do after finding the person. I’m going to secretly inquire about the background of those two people. First Also, they mentioned that there should be a nanny beside the girl.”
“A nanny?”
After the pain subsided, Yue Jiaojiao’s expression eased for a moment and returned to normal. When she heard these words, fragments of memories flashed through her mind.
“I seem to have remembered something, but when I think about it carefully, I don’t know what I’ve remembered.”
Yue Jiaojiao had always thought she would not have the original owner’s memories.
After all, in those time-travel novels, there were many people who did not have the original owner’s memory. However, she didn’t expect that the reason she couldn’t remember was actually because of her brain injury.
“Zhao Zhan, after you’re done resting, why don’t you go to see Doctor Zhou? Just say that I seem to have signs of remembering and ask him to prescribe me some medicine.”
Doctor Zhou’s medical skills were a little beyond the level of Wangshan Town.
After a high fever, a bowl of medicine brought down her fever, and after drinking another bowl, she still didn’t show any signs of fever. Yue Jiaojiao had more faith in Doctor Zhou’s medical skills than anyone else’s right now.
“I’ll go now.”
“Don’t be anxious,” Yue Jiaojiao tugged at the hem of his clothes and peered at Zhao Zhan unhappily. “You should at least eat and rest for a while before you go.”
“I’ll go cook now.”
“No…” Yue Jiaojiao was about to speak again, but Zhao Zhan had already gone to the kitchen like the wind. She shook her head helplessly and sat at the table, slowly eating the roasted meat, her brain filled with thoughts.
In the portrait, there was a little girl with baby fat and an angry expression that was similar to her current appearance. She suspected that the two people were looking for her.
