Chapter 445 Mu Zhao
It was a sunny morning and Lin Jiaojiao was sitting at the dining table drinking freshly ground and brewed coffee.
In the lobby on the first floor of the inn, there were only the waiter at the front desk who was secretly looking at her, and the two sisters of the Zhao family who were sitting at the same table with her.
The rest of the people went back to the house after breakfast, and had no plans to go out to explore the city, just waiting to leave as soon as three days were up.
"Master Lin didn't expect you to be so used to drinking this."
Zhao Zhixin looked at the coffee in Lin Jiaojiao's hand, in which she didn't even put a sugar cube, and couldn't help but admire her.
It took her a year to slowly get used to the taste of coffee, but she still had to put two or three sugar cubes in it before she could swallow it, otherwise it would be too bitter.
Lin Jiaojiao thought it was very fragrant. The freshly ground tea was different. It tasted mellow, rich and delicate.
"Well, I'm a person who can endure hardships. Senior, please make me another cup."
Senior, the shop assistant, immediately agreed with a smile when he saw that she liked the coffee she made herself.
When Hermann arrived, Lin Jiaojiao had already finished three cups of coffee and was full of energy and a little excited.
"Master Herman, I thought you weren't coming."
Herman smiled and walked forward to pull the back of her hand, but she dodged it and took the cup and took a sip slowly.
She didn't want him to take advantage of her anymore.
She had already learned about Hermann's situation from Zhao Zhixin. He already had two concubines and a fiancée at home.
Herman didn't care about her avoidance and explained, "I'm sorry, Miss Lin. I was so happy that I drank a few more glasses with my best friend last night. Now, can I take Miss Lin to visit Sun Moon City?"
Can she say no?
She rolled her eyes at him in her heart but said it calmly on her face.
"Of course, Zhao the translator, please come with me."
Zhao Ruiyi immediately nodded in agreement, and Hermann did not object. Only then did Lin Jiaojiao breathe a sigh of relief.
She did not take Lan Yi out and gave her a strict order to take good care of her injuries.
The three of them left the inn, but Zhao Zhixin followed them.
"Hahaha, I'll go out with you guys. I'm going to find my friends."
When Herman heard this, he remembered that today was already the first of the day, and he started to tease, "You insist on going whenever Mu Zhao goes to the store. If I were you, you'd better break up with Harris earlier, then you might still have a chance."
Zhao Zhixin felt bitter in her heart. She and Harris had been together for five years, which was also the reason why she settled here.
She thought she would only love Harris in her life, but she didn't expect to meet the man her heart beats against when she went home to visit her relatives.
Lin Jiaojiao and Zhao Ruiyi both pricked up their ears to listen to the gossip, and Zhao Ruiyi was full of questions.
Yesterday she met her brother-in-law Harris, and there was no problem in their relationship. So who is this Mu Zhao?
How could her sister, who loved Harris to death, change her mind?
"Harris and I will never separate, and I won't give up on Mu Zhao."
Lin Jiaojiao glanced at Zhao Zhixin out of the corner of her eye, feeling a little complicated.
If it were in the past, she would definitely condemn Zhao Zhixin, saying that she was greedy and had her fill!
But now she feels guilty.
When they reached the fork in the road, Zhao Zhixin separated from them.
Lin Jiaojiao and Zhao Ruiyi followed Hermann around this bustling city.
This time, Lin Jiaojiao didn't dare to look at the man recklessly. She was obviously just admiring him, but there were always narcissistic men who thought she was attracted to him.
For example, the man in front of you with a peacock spreading its tail.
"Miss Lin, why don't you come to my house and play for a while? My garden is pretty nice, and I also have a lion named Jacob. He will definitely be happy to see you."
"..."
Although she was quite interested in lions, she was more afraid that she would never be able to come out again.
"No, I want to go to the market and bring back some local specialties for my husband and children."
After she finished speaking, she walked into a dyeing and weaving shop. Hermann was not too surprised. He knew that women in Chaoqi country got married very early, so he followed her quickly out of curiosity.
"Ms. Lin, you already have a child?"
Lin Jiaojiao looked at the fabrics in the store and replied, "Yes, I already have three children. The day before yesterday was my eldest daughter and son's one-year-old birthday. The fourth and fifth children will be born in a month and a half. I really want to go back soon."
Hermann looked at her in surprise. His face softened when she mentioned her children. However, he did not expect that she would have five children.
Seeing that he didn't say anything, Lin Jiaojiao took out a piece of paper from her side pocket and handed it to him, her tone full of boasting.
"Look, these are my three children. Aren't they cute? These two are twins, born to my first husband. The little one is my third husband's, a little sister. Isn't she pretty?"
Hermann held the paper in silence. The three babies drawn on it were indeed very cute, and her tone revealed her pride in her husbands.
It seems that she has a good relationship with her husbands.
Pity.
I finally met an interesting woman from Chaoqi Country.
But he is someone who values family so much.
He smiled and returned the paper to her. "It is indeed lovely. Miss Lin has a good husband and so many lovely children. You are living a happy life, right?"
Lin Jiaojiao took the paper and looked at the image on it, her eyes filled with longing.
"Yeah, this is the first time I've been away from them for so long. I really want to go back soon."
He squinted his eyes and looked at her. Of course, he understood her hint, but at this moment, she seemed even more attractive as she was at home.
what a pity.
"If it's okay to stay here, you can go back earlier, maybe even in time for the birth of your child."
Lin Jiaojiao looked up at him in surprise, her voice filled with uncontrollable joy.
"That's great! You're so nice, Herman."
The man labeled as a good guy smiled but said nothing. He was not a good guy at all.
All I can say is that she was lucky and just happened to step on his bottom line.
After eating the special dishes of Dayue Kingdom at noon, Lin Jiaojiao took Zhao Ruiyi to bid farewell to Hermann and returned to the inn.
F4 were also very happy to learn that they could leave here immediately. However, they liked the carpets and pottery brought back by Lin Jiaojiao very much and quickly said that they wanted to buy some to take back in the afternoon.
So everyone decided to leave tomorrow, which would be a good opportunity for the Yaoguang to restock supplies.
Hermann was not in a hurry to go back, but came to Tidal Pavilion, where he bumped head-on into a young boy who was coming out of the door carrying a lunch box.
"Little Yuri is going back so soon?"
Yuri looked at him in surprise and quickly came to him.
"Herman, didn't you say you were going on a date today?"
Hermann's heart softened when he saw Yuri, who was only as tall as his waist, and he raised his hand to rub his head again.
"Don't mention it, I don't like me at all."
Yuri tilted his head and asked in confusion: "Ah? Is there anyone who doesn't like Hermann?"
Hermann just smiled and didn't answer him. He walked towards the store and saw a man with his hair tied up with a pearl hairpin sitting at the counter, carving a hairpin with his head down.
"Mu Zhao, why did Zhao Zhixin go home so early today?"
He sat casually at the counter, picked up the unfinished hairpin in front of him and looked at it.
The man named Mu Zhao did not let his movements be interrupted, and replied calmly, "Harris went back because he was not feeling well."
"What do you think is going on with Harris's stomach? There has been no movement for five years. Maybe after she gives birth to a child, Zhao Zhixin will calm down and stop bothering you."
Mu Zhao raised his eyes and glanced at the person sitting opposite him, then slowly said, "Hermann, why do you have such an idea?"
He doesn't think having a child can tie a woman's heart down.
Hermann then told Mu Zhao what happened in the morning, and Mu Zhao sneered after listening.
"Is it possible that she's just not interested in you?"
After all, it is no secret that the women of Chaoqi think the men of Dayue are ugly.
"Impossible! I'm sure she likes my appearance and body shape. Otherwise, why would she not only not look away but also show disgust when I shook my chest muscles at her yesterday? In fact, her eyes seemed to be welded to my chest."
He said this with a hint of pride in his tone.
Mu Zhao didn't want to continue this boring topic with him. After chatting about other things, Hermann yawned and prepared to go home to rest.
Before he left, he suddenly remembered something, and said something to Mu Zhao before leaving.
"By the way, Chaoqi's ship may leave today or tomorrow. If you want to send something home, you'd better do it as soon as possible."
Chaoqi's ships rarely come to Dayue Kingdom, and most of them take a detour.
After he left, the man who had been carving the wooden hairpin in his hand stopped and stared at the half-formed hairpin in a daze.
Time flies so fast.
He has been away from home for almost two years.
His longing for her became even stronger.
