Chapter 199: Chapter 199: It’s actually night time! Chapter 199: Chapter 199: It’s actually night time! Soon enough, she would be that filthy rich person who has more money than she could ever spend, so why would she care about his measly wealth?
“You’re here just to flaunt your wealth?”
They were talking about something serious, and here he was, buttering her up with sweet words. Should she just believe him, or threaten to sew his lips shut with a needle?
Upon hearing her lukewarm response, Ya Molian chuckles, “I suspect there’s something strange happening in Wang Town so I came looking for you. I’m wondering if you would like to join me to check it out?”
Lin Caisang lifts her hand and points towards her own nose.
Being a plump girl, if she really encountered anything strange, she probably wouldn’t stand a chance against it, would she?
But, considering the troubling matters about Liu Baixiao’s family today, wouldn’t it be nice to take a stroll outside and enjoy the scenery?
“When are we going, tomorrow?” she asks.
“No, we’re leaving now. We should return by tomorrow morning.” As soon as Ya Molian sees her agreement, he stands up.
Lin Caisang’s eyes widen to their fullest, almost letting out a scream.
Thankfully, she recalls that she’s in her room, so she covers her lips to soften her alarm.
How could it be tonight!!!
Brother Molian, did you notice the pallor on my face?
Are you sure you want to investigate some uncanny events in the middle of the night? Why do I feel a chill running down my spine?
“Oh, are you scared?” Seeing her , Ya Molian raises an eyebrow and asks.
“Scared? Me? I’m just worried that my granny will find out.” Lin Caisang denies it outright.
It’s just investigating some strange phenomena, what’s there to fear? Moreover, who knows if this strange event even exists? Perhaps it’s all her own imagination.
“The thing we’re investigating only surfaces at night; even the silkworms in the silkworm room freeze over during the night. That’s why we have to go at night. The cart is waiting at the entrance of the village,” Ya Molian explains.
“Alright then, let’s get moving.” Lin Caisang can only nod in agreement.
She still wasn’t sure why Ya Molian included her. How could she be of any help to him? She wouldn’t end up making things worse, would she?
But everyone has a degree of curiosity, and she was no exception. Since Ya Molian had asked her to go with him, how could she refuse? She should join in on the fun, right?
“Liu Baixiao and his folks have returned. Does it affect you in any way?”
The carriage kept swaying, making Lin Caisang drowsy. Then, she heard Ya Molian’s query and it jolted her wide awake. All her sleepiness vanished.
She had no choice. Liu Baixiao and his family were always hovering around her like grim repears, and she absolutely could do nothing about it.
“If I say it doesn’t affect me, would you believe me?” She retorts.
Now that she carried greater responsibilities, she had to beware of Liu Rumei bearing a grudge against Lin Changfeng for Liu Yushui’s failed marriage with Zhou Liang. So, she had to deal with Liu Baixiao — wretched fellow who would slip away with stuff when nobody’s home.
She dreamt of a worry-free life where she could build her own house and grow fruits she liked. How beautiful that life could have been, and it was disrupted by Liu Baixiao and his family.
Just the thought of Liu Baixiao and Liu Rumei freeloading off her every day was enough to give her a headache.
“There’s a pack of wolf cubs recently born in the forest,” Ya Molian suddenly says, ignoring her words. “Do you want to keep one?”
