"Sit down, don't be nervous. I'm here, I won't do anything to you."

Wu Weiguo felt that his attitude was like the spring light outside, bright and cheerful, as if he was saving you from the cold winter. In fact, in Shen He's eyes, it was a face of a villain who had succeeded and had bad intentions.

"Whatever happens, lock up the cowshed, hold a meeting... I'll wait."

Wu Weiguo was so surprised that he couldn't close his mouth. This girl used to look cold and noble, and couldn't stand the dirty and messy environment in the countryside, and was determined to go back to the city. How did she suddenly become a brave woman who was not afraid of danger?

"Don't! Shen He, you are so beautiful and noble, how can you be treated like that." The man advised, rolling his eyes, and poured a glass of water from the thermos beside her. "Your lips are dry, drink some water to moisten them first."

Since yesterday afternoon when she started working, she has not had a drop of water for almost 20 hours, and Shen He is indeed very thirsty. After hesitating for a while, she took a sip of the water into her mouth, savoring it carefully and not swallowing it so quickly.

The water temperature was slightly hot, dry and bland without any peculiar smell, everything was normal. Her throat was so dry that it was about to smoke, but Shen He thought it was okay, so she took the water cup and drank half a cup.

Wu Weiguo grinned, took out an iron box from the cabinet, opened the lid to reveal the biscuits inside. "Eat two pads first, I will help you with your business. You can write as I say later, and talk about your nature as a casual chat. I will speak for you then. You will be fine after being taught a lesson."

Shen He frowned when he heard this. Are you kidding? You have the final say over all natures? Who do you think you are?

"I'm not hungry." Just after she said this stubbornly, her stomach growled. The girl covered her stomach and secretly blamed it for not living up to her expectations.

"Don't be so stubborn. I don't want your benefits. Why are you avoiding me and making me look like a bad guy?"

It's because she doesn't want benefits that she's suspicious. She agreed to help Shen He return to the city, but when she came to find you, you almost took advantage of her. Would you be so kind? Why don't I believe it?

"No, if you're here to work, just start. Ask whatever you want to ask."

Shen He was still stubborn even though his stomach was not working. Wu Weiguo shook his head helplessly and stopped being attentive. He sat down at the table and started taking notes.

When did he tell the story, what was the content, how long was the story, who listened to it... After asking one by one, Shen He answered truthfully.

"Why do you know the myths of Europe? As far as we know, your late grandfather studied in Europe for more than ten years and had many friends and classmates in Europe. Is your family still in contact with those old friends now?"

"No."

Shen He was really panicked now and denied it eagerly. He was just telling a story, but he made it sound like a spy. Xiao Chen's "Floating" is also a foreign story. Are all those who have read Western literature spies?

"...But the content you said is not in any Western literature we know. Who did you hear this story from, or where did you read this book? Is the book still there?"

Shen He had just thought about countermeasures quickly in her mind. After he finished asking, she thought for a while and replied: "My grandfather told me the story when I was a child. In fact, I can't remember a lot of it. I made it up." Her grandfather has been dead for many years, and she has no relatives abroad. It shouldn't be a big deal, right?
