Chapter 52: 58 Only Hardship If You Follow Him

58 Only Hardship If You Follow Him
“Taste it?” Xie Heng handed over one of the sugar dangos that he had made.

Each cooked rice ball was poured over with freshly made hot syrup and sprinkled with fried sesame seeds and crushed peanuts, which looked very appetizing.

Zhao Chuchu took one and took a bite. It tasted sweet and fragrant, incredibly delicious.

“So delicious.” She smiled and looked at Xie Heng.

When Xie Heng saw that, he turned around and went back to work, but the smile on his face could not be suppressed no matter how he tried.

Zhao Chuchu finished the sugar dango before she went to eat the fried sesame balls that Xie Heng had just made.

“Yummy!” Zhao Chuchu gave a thumbs up. “Da Lang, your cooking is excellent.”

Xie Heng smiled reservedly.

“I have to make your eyes better soon.”

This way, she would not have to pretend all the time and rely on cheating to make the meals!

Perhaps the sesame balls’ fragrance smelled so good that it had attracted some unwanted visitors.

However, before the man got anywhere near the Xie household, Zhao Chuchu had already sensed his presence.

“Someone is here!” she whispered to Xie Heng.

As soon as Xie Heng turned his head, he was met with Zhao Chuchu’s bright little face and her vivid expression.

Clearly, her face was very familiar to him. However, at that moment, perhaps it was because of the flickering firelight on the stove, which was shining very brightly; Xie Heng felt as if he was seeing her for the first time!

Her profile had a delicate contour; she was like a fairy from the mountain, lovely and charming.

Xie Heng was startled by these unfamiliar thoughts and immediately suppressed them as his eyes returned to their usual calmness.

Zhao Chuchu’s attention was still on the outside as she took the strainer from Xie Heng’s hand, saying, “Watch the fire. I’ll do this.”

Xie Heng looked at the sesame balls tumbling in the pot of boiling oil and had a feeling that Zhao Chuchu would somehow ruin this batch.

“Aiya, it’s so late, and you guys are still up? What are you guys making that smells so good?”

At that time, the person outside had come in uninvited, rubbing his hands together and staring at the pot. His eyes flashed with greed.

“Such a cooking method wastes a lot of oil, and you guys don’t know how to save it.” The visitor walked in on his own, reaching for the fried sesame balls on the stove. “I’ll try one to see if it tastes good.”

Who knew where those dirty hands had been? Zhao Chuchu was disgusted by the man’s rude behavior.

She hit the hand that was about to touch the sesame balls with a chopstick.

“Ow!” The man screamed as he pulled back his hand.

He covered the place where he had been hit and glared at Zhao Chuchu angrily. “What’s wrong with me eating a sesame ball of yours? And how dare you hit me? Zhao Chuchu, if I am not so nice, believe it or not, I will slap you so hard you can’t even stand!”

“You came inside my house uninvited to grab food from my stove. Do you expect me to hold it out for you with both hands?” Zhao Chuchu retorted.

This man was a well-known hobo in Lengshui Village by the name of Zhao Xing, who was a distant cousin of the original owner. On any given day, he would wander around idly, the type that was never content to stay home and work.

When the flu broke out in Lengshui Village, he was somewhere else. However, he probably found his way over here when he returned to the village overnight.

“What’s wrong with me eating some of your food? Zhao Chuchu, I’m your cousin. If you have so much delicious food but won’t let me eat it, I insist on doing so. Not only will I eat them, but I will also take them all away!” Zhao Xing said arrogantly. “This is the price you have to pay for hitting me.”

He paused as he glanced at Xie Heng, who was sitting quietly in front of the stove, and an evil thought occurred to him. “Chuchu, you are a good-looking gal. How about I get you some business? I guarantee you’ll live in luxury if you listen to me. You see, this blind man can’t give you anything. You will only suffer hardship if you follow him!”

When Zhao Chuchu saw Zhao Xing, she knew what kind of dirty idea he had in mind.

“Chuchu, really, this business is not hard; just lay down and make money… ah!”

Before Zhao Xing could finish what he was saying, he suddenly screamed in a shrill and miserable voice.

Zhao Chuchu looked down and was shocked by what she saw.
