C2 (2/2)

As she said this, she turned around to run away.

”Then I beg of you to help me.”

Xu Heng said steadily.

Luo Yi was startled.

Honestly speaking, the other party's tone of voice didn't sound like he was showing weakness. As he said this, his expression was also smiling, as if the two of them were just discussing the weather. Therefore, Luo Yi gritted his teeth and ignored him, holding his fist tightly, he ran out of the alleyway.

The peddler at the mouth of the alley was frightened by the figure who suddenly rushed out, he clutched his chest and jumped a big step back. When he realized that the perpetrator was a clean and clean boy, he shouted at her in anger, ”Why are you running! Is the ghost trying to take his life?! ”

Luo Yi glared at him, her right hand clenched into a fist and she made a threatening gesture, only until the peddler scolded her and stopped looking at her again did she raise her head and take a deep breath at the sky, before patting her chest to restore her calm.

There was no sound from the alley behind him, it was so quiet that it seemed to be devoid of life.

Luo Yi laughed, thinking of the man's skill, how she could not speak in a more stable manner, and how she could only take a step forward.

Later, Xu Heng laid on Lin Ting's bed. The upper half of his body was still naked, and he smiled as he said to Luo Yi who was busy everywhere: ”Ugh, your mouth is pretty tough.”

Luo Yi raised her hand and threw the medicine she just bought onto Xu Heng's body.

She wasn't really a very good girl, and she had been doing a lot of things to earn a living all these years. However, the old man often said that if she did too much of these things, she would end up in hell, so many times, she was willing to let herself be a kind-hearted person.

That day, she stood alone on the street for a long time before finally walking in and asking, ”Help with what?”

Xu Heng sat sideways against the wall, he did not look surprised at all when he saw her leave, he only slowly faced the back of the arrow towards her and said: ”Help me pull the arrow, I can't reach it.”

As he said that, his face was covered in cold sweat, his expression did not care at all. Luo Yi was enraged, and scolded: ”I'm not a doctor, what are you trying to pull out my ass for!”

No matter how inexperienced she was, she knew that drawing a sword was a skill, even if it was an arrow … However, the arrow was not that far off, especially since the arrow was so deep.

Luo Yi gritted her teeth as she circled Xu Heng's right arm around her shoulder, and dragged him all the way back to Lin Ting's house.

The person living next to Lin Ting's house was a young man. He had studied medicine with the town's pharmacy owner for a few years, so all the villagers in this area would look for if they had a headache. More importantly … This man never asked for money.

Tang Yuan raised his hand and knocked on Luo Yi's head.

He had a good relationship with Lin Ting, and was close to him too. Furthermore, Lin Ting had asked him to take care of Luo Yi for a while before he left, so when he spoke, he unconsciously brought along the sternness of a brother: ”Do you know who this is? I just brought them to my house. ”

Luo Yi laughed while covering her head: ”Don't worry, I'm so smart, I won't do anything harmful to myself!”

She pushed Tang Yuan out the door and said, ”Do you still have a relationship with the medicine store owner in town? Then let's go buy some medicine together! Maybe he will give me a discount for your sake? ”

Saying that, she curled her lips in a spoiled manner, ”Now the medicine stores are all like robbing money!”

Tang Yuan had never been able to deal with her personality, so he didn't have the heart to teach her after hearing her words. He could only secretly give her two bags of protective powder and warn her to protect herself well.

Luo Yi replied with a grin, ”Got it.”

Soon, however, she couldn't smile anymore.

Even with Tang Yuan's help, the money used to buy medicine was not a small amount to Luo Yi. Tang Yuan actually mentioned that he would pay on her behalf, but she was under his care everyday so how could she take advantage of him? Thus, after returning from the medicine store, Luo Yi held onto her chest in pain for a while.

Xu Heng leaned on the headboard, ridiculing her for being useless.

”Isn't it just money?” He reached behind his back, took out a purse and threw it to her. ”I'll give it to you.”

After saying that, Xu Heng clearly saw Luo Yi's eyes light up.

She took it in a fluster. Her face was clearly filled with the ambition of a lowly person who had gained a lot of benefits, yet she pretended to be concerned about him. ”Didn't I steal the money on you? ”Where did it come from …”

His unfinished words were suddenly stuck in his throat.

She was extremely familiar with this money bag since it was embroidered for Lin Ting two years ago.

At that time, her embroidery skills were still lacking. She had said that the mandarin ducks would be turned into wild chickens and even she felt that the final product would be ugly, but Lin Ting didn't mind it at all. She treated it like a treasure and kept it on her body all day.

She opened it to take a look and saw quite a lot of crushed silver inside …

Or did she always say they had the same thing in mind?

Luo Yi carried the money bag in her arms and couldn't help but wonder where Lin Ting should be by now.

This girl held the purse in a daze, just like a small beast that had suddenly pulled back its sharp teeth and claws, turning into an unexpected cute appearance. But it miraculously didn't conflict with her original aura at all.

It was as if she had always had this kind of personality.

Xu Heng frowned.

It was clear that this house was not for girls. The words of the man from before had confirmed his guess. However, what kind of situation was it for a girl who had yet to leave the house to enter a man's house so freely?

”Oh …” Luo Yi replied while sniffing her nose: ”I am the adopted daughter-in-law of the owner of this house.”
