Chapter 229: Chapter 228 The Lie Exposed Chapter 229: Chapter 228 The Lie Exposed Su Yunjin shifted to the side once more.
The man still watched her without leaving.
Now it was Su Yunjin who was puzzled!
Why was he staring at her ?
Could it be that the man in front of her recognized her?
But Su Yunjin did not remember this man from her memories!
Moreover, since she had traveled through time, she had inherited all the memories of this body’s former self, and there was not a single impression of this man in front of her in those memories.
Su Yunjin was quite certain that she did not know the man before her.
The man sized up Su Yunjin, seeming to also be confirming something. As Su Yunjin was filled with confusion, the man suddenly looked at her and tentatively asked, “Miss, may I know if you are the wife of the third young master of the Gu Family, Gu Ya’s brother?”
So he was an acquaintance of her husband, Gu Ya.
“Yes, I am indeed Gu Ya’s wife,” she confirmed.
After confirming Su Yunjin’s identity, the man asked, “Sister-in-law, how is it? Is brother Gu’s injury any better?”
“Who are you…?” Su Yunjin did not recognize the man before her, who also seemed to suddenly realize something. He had seen Su Yunjin once before from a distance; at the time she was with Gu Ya’s brother, and he remembered her, but Su Yunjin did not recognize him. He hurriedly introduced himself to Su Yunjin, saying, “Ah right, I forgot to introduce myself. Sister-in-law, my surname is Wang, I am a hunter on this mountain, named Wang Meng. Brother Gu used to hunt in the mountains frequently; we met while hunting. The last time brother Gu was hunting in the mountains, he accidentally fell down a slope, and it was me who carried him back.”
Su Yunjin knew that Gu Ya had been carried back after falling from the mountain, and upon learning that the man before her was the one who had carried Gu Ya back, she quickly said, “Brother Wang, thank you for carrying my husband back.”
“Don’t mention it, sister-in-law. Last time when brother Gu fell from the mountain accidentally, he was hunting with me. Since brother Gu fell while we were together, it was my duty to save him and carry him back!” Wang Meng said.
“Brother Wang, are you saying that my husband was hunting roe deer with you last time?” Su Yunjin casually asked. Gu Ya had given her fifteen silvers last time, saying that he had hunted several roe deer with another hunter in the mountains, and they sold the deer and split the proceeds evenly, each getting fifteen silvers.
Caught off guard by Su Yunjin’s question, Wang Meng was a bit bewildered, “Roe deer? What roe deer?”
“Brother Wang, weren’t you and my husband hunting several roe deer together last time?” Su Yunjin did not know that Gu Ya had lied to her. Gu Ya said he had sold the roe deer, and Su Yunjin had not doubted him.
Wang Meng replied, “Sister-in-law, what brother Gu and I hunted last time was not roe deer, but a wild wolf! Roe deer are small creatures; brother Gu and I can hunt them on our own, there’s no need for us to collaborate, is there?”
Gu Ya was hunting wolves with someone in the mountains last time?
Didn’t he tell her that they had been hunting roe deer?
How dare this man deceive her?
Seeing the expression on Su Yunjin’s face, Wang Meng seemed to realize something as well. He slapped his mouth with his hand and hurriedly said to Su Yunjin, “Sister-in-law, brother Gu probably did not tell you the truth because he did not want you to worry. It’s also my fault for speaking too much. When you go back, please don’t blame brother Gu!”
