Chapter 303
Chapter 303: Sold 2
It wasn’t long before Yi Ling and Lei Qingyi came over. Yi Ling carried a bunch of food and they were all from Lei Qingyi. She was incredibly happy as she went around saying which one was good. This led to Lei Qingyi grinning from ear to ear.
Yan Huan didn’t manage to talk much to Lu Yi before he had to leave. This was because they had to leave this place before night descended. If not, if they went down the mountain road, they would need to wait until tomorrow morning. If they went back tomorrow morning, Lu Yi’s weekend would be wasted. After driving for a whole night, he wouldn’t have much time to sleep. He wouldn’t get much rest here too.
Yan Huan went to the balcony. Outside, the lights from the city shone and it brought about a feeling of warmth and peace.
She scrunched herself into a ball and sat on the chair like this as she started reflecting on her life.
It did feel good to have someone caring for her.
Suddenly, she smiled. She waved away her fatigue from the past few days as her troubled heart started to settle. Perhaps she had left for too long or she had left some people behind for a while.
She took out her phone and placed it by her ear.
“Lu Yi, it’s me.”
“Yes?” The man on the other end replied simply. However, one could tell that he was in a decent mood.
Yan Huan’s red lips moved closer to the receiver, almost as if she was whispering into someone’s ear.
“I miss you.”
Lu Yi suddenly stopped the car, scaring the other two people inside.
“What’s wrong?” Lei Qingyi was about to sit up but he forgot that he was in a car. With a loud bang, his head hit squarely the roof of the car. He was incredibly tall and he could only suck it up. In fact, this car was modified before. If he was sitting in a normal car, his head would have dented the roof.
“Nothing, a dog went by.” Lu Yi lied with a red face. He started driving again and there was the laughter of a lady from the Bluetooth headset he was wearing.
Yan Huan hung up to not disturb Lu Yi from driving. She closed her eyes and listened to the sound of her rocking chair. Bit by bit, as time passed, she felt something that she had never experienced in her past life.
It was a peaceful feeling.
The next day, Yan Huan felt much better mentally. Yi Ling happily carried a bunch of stuff to set. She planned to eat those when there was nothing to do. Luo Lin couldn’t understand how someone with a small stature like Yi Ling was able to stuff so much food. She really wanted to know what the difference between her structure and Yi Ling’s was
How could a skinny woman like her eat so much?
She shook her head as she continued looking at Yan Huan film. The progress of this film was going along well and Yan Huan’s acting had improved again since filming Game Lake. Especially while filming a comedic scene, her serious yet dazed expression left one loving and hating it.
She was exactly what she acted and she might have been a part of the character herself too. If not, she couldn’t have filmed so many legendary shows.
Flower was sold by Dan Ye, who was from the same village, to a hairdresser. It was only after staying there for a few days did she know that Dan Ye had tricked her. The woman here were all dressed scantily and one could tell immediately that they weren’t any virtuous woman.
Of course, her mum called her dumb every day but one must know that even though she looked a little dazed at times, she wasn’t stupid at all. She didn’t talk to them and didn’t hang with them. She carried her bag as she looked at the amount of dust on the floor. The women pouted upon seeing her.
“Can she be our sister? With those looks?”
Flower continued to smile in a daze.
She then received a pile of clothes for her to wash.
She started her washing days here. Of course, she got very dirty because of this and after every piece that she washed, she thought to herself how little cloth these clothes were and whether anyone could wear them. The people in this city were weird. They had to make normal clothes revealing, short or sleeveless. They were worse than her clothes back at home. Even though her clothes had holes, they weren’t revealing, but people in the city love those clothes.
On this day, she was carrying a big bag of clothes to wash again. She looked as she walked before feeling for something on herself. Luckily she was smart and had stolen her identification card out. If not, she would have been trapped by those people. But even with an identification card, she had no money.
What was most important now was to leave here first. She placed the clothes in a pail before pouting and running to the road that she had found earlier. She snuck into a pipe and continued crawling out.
Hmph, when she returned home, she must tell the whole village that Dan Ye wasn’t a good person. She had thrown every woman in the village into the fire. This time, there were a few women that had followed her here from the same village. But she had no idea where they were, she only knew she was here. That’s right, she was here now.
She changed into another set of clothes in the pipe before cutting her hair. She burst into tears while cutting her hair but she was afraid she would be caught.
With her obvious braid, anyone would have recognised her. When she crawled out, her head looks as if it had been chewed by a dog. It was dark outside and she looked like a thief running along the small road. She followed the road and hid here and there for a few days. When she had a clearer view, she was slinging a bag over herself. Her clothes were smelly and dirty and her hair was like a chicken nest. She hadn’t washed it in a very long time.
She was living decently like this, the people here loved to throw away stuff and she had picked up many things, even a wallet. She returned it but the other person didn’t even give her a word of thanks. At this thought, she pouted, she might as well have taken out some money to spend on herself.
She carried her bag on her shoulders as she prepared to go to work.
By working, she meant taking things that people didn’t want like bottles and bringing them to sell at a waste collector. She used the money to buy some things to eat. In any case, she wouldn’t eat anything from the rubbish bin. She was a human and not a dog, she was very insistent on this. At the end of the day, she could earn a few dollars which she used to buy the cheapest thing to eat for a few days.
