Chapter 1374 - I Only Want You (1/2)

Jing Chu was terribly upset the moment she realized that fact.

….

She stayed in the hospital all the way until November.

During the period of her hospitalization, Pei Yi would get intimate with her on the hospital bed.

He would leave in satisfaction every single time.

She returned to the mansion to see that it was clean and tidy. Did he hire the maid again?

Just as she was about to head upstairs, a figure popped up in the kitchen and said, “Sister Jing Chu, you’re home.”

Jing Chu turned around and was greeted with the sight of a chubby teenage girl who had on an apron and a bandana.

“You are…”

“I’m the new nanny whom Mr. Pei had just bought. I’ll take care of all the household chores from now on and my job is also to look after you. My name is Fat Lass.”

“He bought you?”

“Yes, Mr. Pei bought me. My parents passed away a long time ago, and I was sold to the black market where Mr. Pei bought me.”

Jing Chu took pity on her and empathized with her after hearing that she was an orphan.

“You’re an orphan? Me too. It’ll be just the two of us from now on. I’ll have to trouble you in the future.”

Surprised to hear her words, Fat Lass waved frantically and said, “It’s no trouble at all. This place is much better than the one I used to live in. Sis Jing Chu, wait a moment. The food will be ready very soon.”

She nodded and sat on the couch.

Jing Chu could not help but feel a little agitated now that she had someone else to talk to apart from Pei Yi.

“Fat Lass, are you a local?”

“Yes. How about you, Sis?”

“I’m from S Nation.”

“You’re so well versed in our language, especially since you have a different native language.”

“I’m speaking a foreign language?”

“Yeah, the native language of S Nation is different from that of R Nation. You’re speaking the R Nation language right now, aren’t you?”

Jing Chu had never deliberately picked up a foreign language since she never had the chance to do so anyway. Not only could she communicate with animals, she could understand foreign languages and speak them fluently as well.

It was a talent of hers that she had just realized she possessed.

“Yes, I just came to this nation a while ago. I’m not too familiar with the place yet. Could you tell me more about it?”

Fat Lass nodded and said, “Sure. The women in our nation have a lowly status, and we have to undergo genital mutilation when we’re children. However, the crime rate here is very low because the family of criminals would be implicated and face a penalty as well. Hence, people would often refrain from committing crimes, for fear of harming their family.”

After learning about what genital mutilation was, she immediately got the chills and said, “I don’t want to give birth to a daughter here, then.”

Fat Lass explained, “It doesn’t happen to all girls. Lots of girls don’t undergo genital mutilation. It’ll be alright as long as their families keep it a secret. Sis Jing Chu, is Mr. Pei your husband?”

Shaking her head, Jing Chu answered, “No.”

“Is he your boyfriend, then?”

“Boyfriend…” He may not think that he’s my boyfriend, but I do consider him to be my boyfriend. She nodded and continued, “Yes.”
