Chapter 276 You're really good
Fangniang suddenly nodded to Zhou Hanzhang and said, "You're really good at raising her. I don't know what to do with her now."
Jiang Mingyun didn't understand what Fangniang meant, but Zhou Hanzhang knew perfectly well. He immediately glared at Fangniang and said softly, "The food is coming soon."
Sure enough, as soon as Zhou Hanzhang finished speaking, servants filed in, carrying steaming hot dishes and placing them on the table, quickly filling it to the brim.
"Since there's food, I won't say any more."
Fangniang winked at Zhou Hanzhang and gave him a sly smile.
Jiang Mingyun was still puzzled and looked at Zhou Hanzhang, asking, "Brother Hanzhang, what does he mean by that? It doesn't sound like a nice thing to me."
Fangniang couldn't wait any longer. She picked up her chopsticks, grabbed some food, and stuffed it into her mouth, saying indistinctly, "Oh, I'm just praising how well you've been raised. How is that not a compliment?"
Jiang Mingyun didn't even glance at him, but looked directly at Zhou Hanzhang, waiting for an explanation.
"He was indeed praising you," Zhou Hanzhang said with a slight smile, his tone tinged with amusement.
"Hmph, you win." Jiang Mingyun snorted lightly and said no more.
After the group finished their meal, Fangniang gave Zhou Hanzhang some more instructions regarding post-operative care.
These precautions are mostly similar to those for modern cosmetic surgery, such as getting enough rest, avoiding strenuous exercise, and taking medication on time.
Although Zhou Hanzhang had not experienced anything similar, he had seen many similar cases and naturally understood the gravity of the situation.
With so many servants around, she only needed to give the order; she didn't need to worry about it herself.
"Alright, I'll head back now. Zhangzhang, remember to tell your family what I asked you to do when you get back. It's best to get their approval for these things."
Fangniang got up to leave, not forgetting to give Zhou Hanzhang some instructions.
“I know. Shall I have someone take you back?” Zhou Hanzhang suggested.
She knew that Fangniang's appearance was extremely outstanding, and if she were to reveal it to outsiders, it would definitely cause unnecessary trouble.
"What are you worried about? No one in the capital dares to mess with my sister. Don't worry."
Fangniang waved her hand confidently, then left decisively.
After seeing Fangniang leave, Zhou Hanzhang turned to Jiang Mingyun and said, "Shall I take you home?"
"Brother Hanzhang, should we stay here and keep watch? What if Zhou Haochen rushes in and finds us?" Jiang Mingyun said with some worry.
“It’s alright, he already sent someone here once before. Even when Sun Ce came just now, he didn’t dare to barge in directly; he had his reservations. Unless he can come in person, but he’s still under house arrest, we don’t need to worry too much,” Zhou Hanzhang analyzed, his tone revealing a sense of composure.
She looked at the room where Lisa and Robert were resting and continued, "Besides, they don't look the same as before. Even if Zhou Haochen came with his men and bumped into them, he wouldn't recognize them. Qianmian's reputation and strength are real. We should trust him."
Jiang Mingyun recalled Fangniang's serious demeanor when she changed her face, and couldn't help but look at her with new respect; she was indeed very professional.
Since Zhou Hanzhang had said so, she felt a little relieved.
Before leaving, Zhou Hanzhang gave her trusted confidants a final reminder of the precautions Qianmian had mentioned earlier, and then summoned the guards protecting her, specifically instructing them: "If anything goes wrong, send someone to find me immediately."
Although she was confident in her ability to make a thousand faces, she still needed to make thorough preparations.
After arranging everything, she sent Jiang Mingyun back to the Jiang residence.
She could have easily let herself go back, or asked someone else to take her, but Zhou Haochen kept an eye on Jiang Mingyun, and might make another move at any time.
It's better to be cautious than to take risks.
With her by Jiang Mingyun's side, even if Zhou Haochen is bold, he wouldn't dare to snatch her away right under her nose like he did last time.
Before entering the Jiang residence, Jiang Mingyun asked Zhou Hanzhang, "Brother Hanzhang, when does the academy's competition start? Should I make some preparations beforehand?"
Zhou Hanzhang had been so busy lately that she almost forgot about it. She frowned and said, "The dean didn't seem to tell me the exact time, but we're just here to make up the numbers, so we probably don't need to prepare anything, right? If you have time, you can go back to the academy and ask tomorrow."
Jiang Mingyun readily agreed, "Okay, I'll ask tomorrow."
She remembered something else and asked, "By the way, what is it that Thousand Faces keeps asking you to go and help him with?"
"It was all just a joke, don't take it to heart. It's getting late, you should go back and rest. I'm going back too," Zhou Hanzhang said.
She needs to go back to her mother and father early today to discuss her plans to help out at the Red Beauty Pavilion.
Although she felt that her parents were unlikely to stop her, she thought it would be better to go back and tell them anyway.
Zhou Hanzhang quickly returned to the Zhou residence. When she went to find Madam Zhou, she found that Zhou Huaide was about to dismiss everyone and prepare to rest with Madam Zhou.
Seeing Zhou Hanzhang enter, Zhou Huaide's expression turned sour, and his tone became somewhat impatient, "Why are you here at this hour?"
Zhou Hanzhang pretended not to see his expression and said, "I have something to discuss with my father and mother."
"Huh? You want to discuss this with me too?"
Zhou Huaide was a little curious, because from childhood to adulthood, Zhou Hanzhang rarely took the initiative to discuss things with him.
Many times, she would go to Madam Zhou, and then Madam Zhou would make the final decision.
Most of the time, he just accompanied her to walk chickens and fight dogs, and taught her some things along the way.
“Well, I recently met Princess Lisa from the United States, didn’t I?” Zhou Hanzhang said.
Madam Zhou had already heard about this, and nodded, signaling her to continue.
But Zhou Huaide had never heard of her. He looked puzzled. "Are you talking about Princess Lisa from the United States? Hasn't she been missing for a long time?"
Helpless, Zhou Hanzhang had no choice but to tell Zhou Huaide about Princess Lisa again.
"This, this..."
Zhou Huaide was so shocked that he couldn't speak. After a moment, he recovered and said, "If we have the ability, we should definitely help."
"I've already used my master's connections to find Thousand Faces, and the face-changing technique was just completed today. They'll need a month to recover before they can appear in public," Zhou Hanzhang said.
Zhou Huaide had often gone to the Red Beauty Brothel to buy information from Fangniang, so he knew a little about Fangniang's personality.
He frowned and said, "She helped us so readily?"
Madam Zhou patted him and scolded, "Isn't this because of Ni You's relationship? Don't think everyone is so mercenary."
