Chapter 743: If You don’t Eat, your Mommy will Never Come Back

She would not doubt what Shen Wei said. In extreme circumstances, people could do almost anything. They just wished that they would reach land soon; if not, they would really be eaten by those people as food. If it was so, she’d rather be thrown into the sea to be fed to the fishes than be eaten by a person.

Shen Wei felt dizzier, and her body missed a step. Luckily, Xia Ruoxin had helped her up; if not, she would have collapsed.

When she was about to reach the front, Xia Ruoxin suddenly held Shen Wei’s hand and squeezed the web between the thumb and the forefinger; the gush of pain made Shen Wei more alert.

She lifted her spirits and took her portion of the rice.

When she held the bowl up, there was porridge inside; and one person could have two hard cookies which were one more than the last time.

“Is this our last dinner?” Xia Ruoxin ate the biscuit in her hands. “They let us eat one more.”

Shen Wei bit a mouth. “I think we’re reaching land soon. If they don’t give it to us, they’ll throw it away, too.”

When she heard this, Xia Ruoxin heaved a sigh of relief.

According to that, they would not be eaten. No matter where they went, what their destination would be, what they did in the future, and whatever identity they had, at the very least; they would not end up in someone’s stomach.

Xia Ruoxin poured out two tablets for Shen Wei and took one to eat herself. She could not be thrown into the sea to feed fishes when they were about to reach land.

Shen Wei took it and directly shoved the medicine into her mouth and drank a mouthful of porridge. Alas, the medicine did not get stuck in her throat and had gone down smoothly.

This bowl of porridge had nourished their throats that were almost on fire and could fill their empty stomachs for a while. They ate and drank instinctively.

After eating, Shen Wei went back to sleep. Xia Ruoxin placed both their bowls into the bucket in front and came back to sit in front of Shen Wei. She held Shen Wei’s hand and did not dare to sleep. She was afraid that if she did, Shen Wei would be thrown into the sea.

Suddenly, she heard some movements which woke her up instantly.

“What should we do? There’s another one with fever.”

“We can only throw her.”

“Throw again? If we do so, it’ll be the third one.”

“If we don’t, all these women would be infected; and before we reach that place, all of them would die out of illness one by one. Then, we would have made a futile trip.”

“Okay then.” The man carried the numb woman. “It would be good if we had medicine. It might be better if they could have one tablet.”

Xia Ruoxin reached her hand into her pocket and held the medicine bottle tight. Alas, she let go of her hand with the other holding Shen Wei’s. Shen Wei’s hand was a bit cold, but her temperature was not considered high. Her breathing had slowed down, perhaps she was in the midst of self-recovery.

She curled herself up and touched the bottle hidden in her clothes. It was not that she did not want to save her; she simply could not. That bottle of medicine was for herself and Shen Wei. To be a good person now would only harm themselves.

The floor underneath shook again, perhaps the boat had hit something. A wave splashed over and touched one of the reefs at the bottom of the sea. Sometimes, she wished that the boat would be like Titanic and hit an iceberg and just sink. However, at the end of the day, she still did not want to die and want to continue living. No matter how tired she was, she still had people she wanted to meet and things she wanted to do.

“Shen Wei, do you have anyone you want to see?” she suddenly asked. After quite some time, Shen Wei was still quiet; and she thought Shen Wei would not answer.

Shen Wei opened her eyes and turned her face around. Her empty eyes were now filled with endless memories.

“Mm, I want to see Brother San and thank him. All these years, I haven’t said it to him; but he has always been letting me have my way and protecting me. But I… I only bring him trouble in the end.

“Oh, yes. What about Gao Yi? Why haven’t I heard you talk about him?”

Gao Yi…

Xia Ruoxin hugged her knees tightly, and actually, she could feel her protruding leg bones which felt like firewood.

She had not thought about Gao Yi in a long time. Sometimes, life was really filled with uncertainty and surprises, the one that one thought would be for life, would only be for a few years… or even just a year.

“We broke up.” She separated her dry lips.

It was not a smile; she wanted to, but she could not do it.

She buried her face between her knees. When she thought back about it, it seemed as if it had happened in the previous life. If one asked her if she loved Gao Yi, she could not give a reply. Perhaps she did, perhaps she did not; maybe she did not have time to, or she did not love him deeply.

There was nothing too moving between them so it was calm when they broke up.

Shen Wei did not ask further just like what Ruoxin did.

She had said before, a story in exchange for another.

At that time, they had not finished exchanging their own stories.

Both of them started becoming speechless and were moving with the boat. They still did not know where they would be brought to in the vast sea with no ends.

…

“Come, Rainy. Let’s eat.” Lin Qing took a spoon and fed Rainy.

Rainy looked at him with watery big eyes, and Lin Qing’s hand trembled but still placed the spoon by her mouth.

Rainy ate one mouthful, knitted her brows, and shook her head.

“Brother, Rainy doesn’t want to eat anymore.”

“How can you not eat?” Lin Qing’s face darkened. “Your Mommy told you not to be picky with food. A picky child is not a good child. If you don’t eat, your Mommy will never come back.”

Rainy pouted and was afraid once she heard that her mother would not come back. She continued eating the food Lin Qing fed her as she cried.

At that time, the door opened; and Lin Qing hurriedly hid the bowl behind him.

Rainy turned around and jumped off the chair to run to the man that entered.

“Daddy…”

Chu Lui carried his daughter and wiped her cheeks.

“Why did you cry?”

Rainy sniffed and said chokingly, “Brother said if I don’t eat, Mommy would not come back.”

Lin Qing stood up and the hand holding the rice was shaking.

Chu Lui lightly looked at Lin Qing with his head down, and when he walked past him, he stopped in his tracks.

“Don’t scare her like that anymore.”

“Okay, Uncle.” Lin Qing raised his head, and his child-like face was filled with apology. “It was because she didn’t eat properly so I…”
