Qin Yin informed Shen Linxi of her itinerary.

After Shen Linxi arranged the company's affairs, the two took a plane to Yuan'an Village, Luohua County, Yun Province. After getting off the plane, they took a full five-hour journey before arriving at this remote and backward small village.

The village is surrounded by mountains and rivers. What you see at first glance is endless green, and the fresh air lingers on your nose.

Qin Yin and Shen Linxi were dressed simply and plainly.

According to the investigation, Lin Jiaying's parents were from Anyuan Village. Later, they became successful and became criminal police officers and moved out of the village. After the death of her parents, Lin Jiaying returned to her hometown in a remote mountain village alone and never set foot in the bustling city outside.

Strangers don't often visit the village, so the arrival of Qin Yin and Shen Linxi aroused the curiosity and vigilance of the original villagers in the village.

"The old witch is doing evil things on the mountain again!"

"Everyone, go to the mountain and take a look. The old witch is talking to herself in the air and is crazy!"

"The old witch's face is so terrifying."

Suddenly, there was a noise and frolic on the mountain in front of them, and then a group of plainly dressed, sturdy children ran down the mountain noisily, with mischievous smiles on their faces that were ignorant of the world.

Shen Linxi and Qin Yin looked at each other and unanimously guessed that the old witch these children were talking about was most likely the disfigured Lin Jiaying.

Shen Linxi took out the change from his pocket and walked up to one of the children, who was about eight or nine years old.

"Children, is the person you are talking about named Lin? Can you take us up the mountain to find her?"

"This money is given to you as a reward for leading the way. You can buy a lot of delicious snacks, instant noodles, cakes and lollipops."

The change in his hand included a fifty, and some scattered five and one pieces.

The little boy wearing a somewhat old, empty and ill-fitting short-sleeved shirt looked at the stack of money and swallowed when he heard Shen Linxi's list of snack names.

He nodded hesitantly and stretched out his hand to take the change from Shen Linxi's hand.

"Huzi! What are you doing? Did I teach you not to talk to strangers or ask for other people's things?!"

The door of a house was open, and the middle-aged woman who came out to pour vegetable water suddenly became furious. She picked up a thick branch from the firewood pile next to her and strode over.

First, he slapped Huzi hard on the back, and then stared at Shen Linxi and Qin Yin with vigilant and ferocious eyes.

"What do you want to do?"

"Are you thinking of kidnapping a child in our village?! If you dare to have such crooked thoughts, believe it or not, I will call the whole village to break your legs!"

Qin Yin smiled and stepped forward to explain.

"Mom, I misunderstood."

"We are friends of the Lin family's daughter. We just heard that Lin Jiaying is in the mountains, and we thought that the child would lead us to find her and reminisce about old times."

As he spoke, he took out a photoshopped photo from his bag. Considering that people in remote areas were wary when he came here, Special Assistant Shen specially photoshopped this photo of the three of them.

In the photo, Lin Jiaying looked like before she was disfigured. Looking at the photo, the aunt showed regret on her face, lamenting that Lin Jiaying and her mother looked very much like both of them, both of them were beautiful women.

The aunt touched Huzi's head.

"Go ahead, take them to the mountains and then come back. They are not allowed to go wild in the mountains. If I catch them, your ass will blossom tonight."

"I know, mother."

Huzi glanced at his mother and then at Shen Linxi, then carefully took the stack of change.

The aunt laughed and cursed, but she didn't reach out to snatch Huzi's money rudely.

Under the leadership of Hu Zi.

The three of them climbed the mountain road for forty minutes, and their shoes were stained with a lot of mud, and their clothes had small thorny balls stuck to them.

Qin Yin and Shen Linxi arrived at the top of the mountain.

Huzi pointed ahead.

Looking in the direction he pointed, she saw Lin Jiaying muttering to herself in the air. The lines she read were exactly the words of the imperial concubine in the palace drama that Qin Yin had read.

"Bold bitch!"

"It must be you who are causing trouble and bewitching the emperor to the point that the emperor has no interest in government affairs. Today, I will punish you, a witch who has caused harm to the country, and purge the harem."

"Come here, drag Mei Xiao down!"

Although he couldn't see the facial expressions clearly, he was so good at lines that he could hear them clearly without subtitles, and his words were spoken with a dignity that defied all carelessness.

"Look, she was very nervous all day..."

Huzi was frightened by Lin Jiaying's acting. He unnaturally tugged on Shen Linxi's sleeves and slipped away with oil on his soles.

His voice was heard by Lin Jiaying. She turned around and saw a stranger present. She hurriedly picked up the veil on the ground and covered her face.

Just a glance.

Qin Yin noticed that Lin Jiaying's face was so disfigured that it could scare a child to tears.

Lin Jiaying saw Qin Yin and Shen Linxi's clothes,Even though the clothes are very simple for convenience, the texture of the fabric on the upper layer shows that it is from the outside city and into the village.

"Please go back wherever you came from. I will not accept any interviews. My life is very good now and I don't want to be disturbed by any further setbacks."

Lin Jiaying's voice was cold and strong.

Shen Linxi straightened the wrinkles on his clothes. He showed no anger at Lin Jiaying's sarcastic remarks, and his facial expression remained as calm as ever.

"Ms. Lin, we are not reporters. Miss Lin has been practicing her acting skills for many years after quitting the entertainment industry. I think Miss Lin still has memories of the entertainment industry. Our arrival can solve your troubles."

"Are you a talent scout? Agent? President?"

"Whatever your identity is has nothing to do with me. Even if you return to the entertainment industry, what kind of trouble can a disfigured ugly woman cause? Ha, it's just a gimmick to increase the popularity of your company."

Lin Jiaying was not moved by his few words, and her brain remained calm.

Qin Yin picked out the thorns stuck to her clothes, "Of course we won't let you become a stepping stone. We have the most advanced plastic surgery technology introduced from abroad to restore your appearance to its peak state. This is a Mutually beneficial cooperation.”

Lin Jiaying was stunned when she heard Qin Yin's words. She raised her hand to touch her cheek, her eyes showing sadness, but she didn't know what she thought of and quickly put her hand down, rejecting Qin Yin's proposal without hesitation.

Lift your feet and get ready to go down the mountain.

Shen Linxi saw Lin Jiaying's heartbeat for a moment, and after a little thought, he took a strong dose of medicine.

"We noticed that the death of Ms. Lin's parents in a car accident was unusual. We wonder if Ms. Lin is interested in bringing the person behind the incident to justice."

Lin Jiaying's steps suddenly stopped.

Qin Yin and Shen Linxi cooperated tacitly, and the two of them sang together and successfully shook Lin Jiaying's heart.

Qin Yin smiled and spoke.

"I feel a little thirsty after trekking all the way. I wonder if I would be honored to go to Miss Lin's house to ask for a glass of water."

Lin Jiaying lowered her eyes and her voice was dry and hoarse.

"Follow up."

Her steps were a little messy when she went down the mountain, and it could be seen that Lin Jiaying was feeling huge waves in her heart.

Qin Yin and Shen Linxi followed Lin Jiaying.

The three of them went down the mountain smoothly without any obstruction. Under the curious gaze of some villagers, they entered an old bungalow with a small courtyard.
