The boat soon docked. A large group of people escorted Lu Bai and the middle-aged man to the hospital.
Lu Bin’s eyes were filled with his own grandson. He forgot about Su Meng and followed the doctor into the car. The rest of the people did not know Su Meng, so no one cared about her for a while.
Shen Jian wanted to greet them, but no one paid attention to him. Not long after, everyone left. Only Su Meng and Shen Jian were left.
Shen Jian: “…”
“Master, why do I feel like we’re being grinded and discarded by them?” Shen Jian walked to the side of the stone block and sat down. He looked at the direction where the large group of cars had left in a melancholic manner.
“It looks like Mr. Lu is seriously injured, and that police officer doesn’t seem to be in a good condition either. They are the ones who they should be paying the most attention to. It’s normal for them to forget about us for a moment.” Su Meng was rather open-minded and did not mind being ignored at all.
Shen Jian sighed and was a little worried. “However, if we just leave by ourselves here, how are we going to go back? We drove all the way here in the middle of the night. It is so far away. What should we do?”
It was not realistic to take a taxi at such a distance. How much money would it cost? However, if they did not take a taxi, it was even more unreliable to walk back on two legs.
“Take the bus.” Su Meng took out her change and waved it in front of Shen Jian.
“But there’s no bus stop nearby. Besides, it’s such a long distance. How do you know where to sit, where to get off, and how to walk the rest of the way?” Shen Jian asked a bunch of questions.
Seeing Shen Jian’s silly and sweet look, Su Meng smiled and felt a little helpless.
She took out her phone and opened the map. “Remember that you’re a modern person. We have a map and can call for a bus at any time.”
Shen Jian: “!” He was used to being poor. He had always used the geriatric machine and did not have this function!
Finally, when night fell, Su Meng brought Shen Jian back to the antique shop.
At this moment, she was so tired that she felt a little dizzy. She had to endure it to not faint. She did not want to care about anything. She just wanted to go back to her room and have a good sleep.
Guo Xiang saw Su Meng’s appearance and knew that she was tired, so he did not ask anything and let her go back to her room to rest.
Because Su Meng was always busy, Shen Jian was still energetic. He was not in a hurry to sleep. Instead, he first reported the situation to Guo Xiang.
“Master is really amazing. She can even do such a thing. She is indeed a genius!” After Shen Jian finished reporting the incident to Guo Xiang, he was sincerely impressed.
“Good, as long as she find him, it will be good. It has been hard on her this time. Let her have a good rest.” Guo Xiang felt a little heartache.
“However, Master went through so much trouble and didn’t receive any reward. It feels like she did it for nothing.” Shen Jian still remembered Elder Lu’s promise to Su Meng at the beginning. He said that he would not mistreat Su Meng and would definitely give her satisfaction.
However, Guo Xiang did not reply to this question.
He did not participate in this matter because he trusted Su Meng. This disciple of his knew what to do.
“Your fate is a bit strong.” Guo Xiang stared at Shen Jian for a while and spoke.
Hearing Guo Xiang’s words, Shen Jian’s heart skipped a beat. Guo Xiang was indeed Su Meng’s master. He immediately saw through the problem with his fate. He could not help but worry. It was not easy for him to get a leg up. Was it going to be ruined?
If Guo Xiang really cared about his fate, then he could only leave. If he did not leave, it would be considered harming others.
Guo Xiang noticed Shen Jian’s nervousness and couldn’t help but smile. He slowly said, “You don’t have to worry. This isn’t a big problem. Girl Meng must have noticed your problem long ago and brought you here. There must be a way to avoid it.”
Knowing that Shen Jian’s situation wasn’t good, Guo Xiang didn’t directly talk about his sore spot. Instead, he tactfully comforted him.
Shen Jian heaved a sigh of relief.
The two of them chatted for a while. It was late at night. Other than the street lamps that were still on, all the other shops on antique street had turned off their lights to rest.
“It just so happens that Hong Si has something to do today and has left. You can just stay in his room.” Guo Xiang closed the door of the shop.
“Brother Hong has left? No wonder I didn’t see him. I thought he was resting.”
“Something happened to his family. I reckon that he won’t be back for a long time.” Guo Xiang’s expression was a little off, but Shen Jian had always been careless. He did not realize it when he heard Guo Xiang say that he was alright. He yawned and said good night to him, then he went upstairs to sleep.
