Chapter 952: A Thief

Chapter 952: A Thief

A lady finally showed up. Although she was ugly and limping, he did not mind since he would not be able to see anything after the lights went off.

Also, no one would want a woman like that. It would be better if she followed him.

He got up in the middle of the night and put on his clothes. His elderly mother was still sleeping soundly despite all the noises he made.

Jin Gen opened the door and ran outside while wrapping the cotton top around his body. The rustling sound he made while stepping on the snowy ground might frighten anyone this late at night.

He habitually ran to another house and climbed over the wall. As he hid outside of the house, he saw that the lights were still on and heard someone speaking.

It sounded like a man and a woman were chatting. The voices should belong to the newlywed couple from the Hu family because this house belonged to them. The woman, who was the goddess of the village, ended up getting married to this man from the Hu family. Nonetheless, it made total sense because the Hu family was rich and owned a lot of land. On top of that, the husband was good-looking and young. Any smart woman would choose to get married to someone from the Hu family.

Jin Gen thought he was not that bad compared to the man. In his opinion, this lady must be blind to not choose him as her partner.

The lights suddenly went off. Jin Gen got nervous and rubbed his hands subconsciously. The noises inside changed. They started taking off their clothes, kissing each other and so on.

It was normal for the newlyweds to do so and of course, they did not hold back. The moaning was so loud that Jin Gen’s body turned numb and his lower parts tensed.

After a while, the noise reduced and could hardly be heard anymore.

He rested his ear against the window and pushed to open the window slightly to hear them better. However, he stumbled over the boulder he was stepping on and fell to the side.

With a thump, he fell onto the ground and hit his head on the boulder. He groaned from the pain and frightened the people inside the house.

It became chaotic in an instant. The people inside the house thought he was a thief although burglary never happened in this rustic village.

However, no one was comfortable with the fact that there was a thief in the village.

Of course, the most suspected person was definitely the only outsider who was carried back by Changsheng – the lady who was living in the damaged house outside the village.

Yan Huan had no idea that she was a theft suspect just because she was an outsider. However, she did notice that the whole village was being xenophobic to her.

She woke up in the middle of the night. Since the windows were nailed shut, no wind could enter and she felt much warmer than before.

The house was warmed up because of the stove. She thought the house would be warmer if it was smaller. Moreover, she had to leave some space over the window for air ventilation. She would rather freeze than get poisoned by carbon monoxide from the stove.

She lifted the blanket, walked to the stove and added more firewood to it. On top of the stove was a kettle – she would have warm water to use and drink when she woke up in the morning.

She went back to bed after adding firewood and tugged herself in the blanket. The atmosphere was still humid because of the weather. It had been snowing since she arrived and she had never seen the sun. Moreover, the damaged house had leakages everywhere which made it even more humid.

She sighed lightly and lied down again. She rolled herself up into a ball because that was the only way she could keep herself warm.

She should sleep because she needed to wake up in the morning to collect more firewood. Days like this seemed not as hard to pass. She thought to herself that she could endure and bear with it.

As the days passed, she would be closer to going home and closer to staying alive.

She fell asleep and dreamed about Lu Yi making her food. He made her favorite dishes and also his favorite meat.

She picked up the chopsticks to take a piece of meat. However, Su Qingdong slapped the back of her hand forcefully when she was about to take a bite. Her fingers jerked and the meat fell on the floor instantly. She stared at the piece of meat tearily, her heart ached.

Tears started streaming down her face.

The sky was already bright when she opened her eyes. She touched her face and smiled wryly. It was just a dream, which explained why there were meat and dishes. Anyway, it did not matter since she did not get to have a proper meal.

She thought that it was still nice to occasionally dream about food even though she did not get to eat them. She only wanted to have a look, reminisce and think about food for a bit.

She got dressed and walked up to the stove. It was a relief that the fire did not burn out. She woke up at least thrice in the night just to make sure that the fire was still on. She would not have the money to buy matches to light up the fire in case it burned out.

She never knew that lighting up a fire would be so difficult sometimes.

This place was falling behind, they did not even have a lighter. Perhaps things like matches were hard to find in Sea City.

She carried the small container filled with rice. She was happy whenever she saw the rice as it assured her that there was nothing to be worried about.

There was nothing to be concerned about when there was food. The small container would be sufficient to maintain her for a few months as she only needed a small portion each day.
