Chapter Fourteen Thinking Too Much
"Sir, are you sure you want to abandon Miss Xin like this and leave her alone?" Yi Hua recalled that Ren Xin had threatened Chu Qingchen to help her find out the location of the prostitution contract, and thought that the situation of Ren Xin being locked up in the woodshed of Ren's family was not good.
Chu Qingchen felt that Ren Xin was so scheming that nothing could happen to her. Waiting for a day or two before rescuing her would just let her learn some lessons. Although Yi Hua felt that something was wrong, he didn't say anything more.
, just like Chu Qingchen said, Ren Xin will not let anything happen to him.
Ren Xin walked all the way to Yicheng, her pace was very fast. Thinking that she had hope for Chu Qingchen, thinking that he would come back to save her, Ren Xin felt ridiculous. From the day she was reincarnated, she swore to herself
Is her destiny in her own control? If she can't find a way to save herself and just puts her hope in Chu Qingchen, I'm afraid she will be Tian Manjin's person tomorrow.
There was no light in the dark night, and the sky was covered with clouds. There were no stars or moon. It was so dark that Ren Xin couldn't even see the road under his feet. He tripped over a stone and fell into the muddy water.
In the puddle, although Ren Xin could not see the payment, he could feel that the clothes on his body were wet with water, and it must have been covered with mud.
In order to return to the city as early as possible, she took a small road that she would not usually take. Remembering the puddles on this road, she should be not far from Yicheng when she got here.
Unable to discern the direction in the darkness, she groped her way up. The path was covered with grass and was a bit slippery due to the water splashed by Ren Xin's fall. Moreover, the path was not wide, and even if she avoided the puddles, it would be very slippery.
It is narrow and there are steep slopes on both sides of the road.
Ren Xin stood on tiptoe and carefully explored the road. She was not that familiar with this road and was not sure about the direction she could go. She finally found a piece of ground that looked like flat ground. Ren Xin stepped on it lightly.
It was still strong, so he moved his body's center of gravity. Unexpectedly, when Ren Xin stood over, the mud under his feet began to slowly slide towards the slope. Ren Xin hurriedly raised his feet to leave this position.
But accidentally, he slipped and fell down the mountain.
All the way down, Ren Xin was bruised and bruised by bushes, thorns and stones on the ground. After a long time, the slope became gentle, and Ren Xin finally stopped. She hugged a tree next to her that was quite strong when hugged, and stood upright with vigilance.
Her ears listened to the movement around her. Just as she was descending, she faintly heard the sound of wolves howling nearby.
Ren Xin's wounds were not deep, but they all bled to a greater or lesser extent. The smell of blood slowly spread in the air, quickly attracting the attention of the wolves. The voices of the wolves were getting closer and closer, and Ren Xin
Listening to the voice, she felt frightened. She had to think of a way to escape in the shortest possible time.
In the panic, her brain became like the dark environment around her, and she couldn't see or grasp anything even if there was anything. When she was panicking, the touch of tree bark in Ren Xin's arms made her finally realize that there were still things around her.
There was a big tree, and no matter how tall the tree was, whether it could help her escape from the wolves, she couldn't give up as long as there was a glimmer of hope.
Her strong desire to survive made her ignore the pain on her body and climbed up the tree with all her strength. As she climbed, she paid full attention to the sound of the wolves. The sound was getting closer and closer, and every cell in her body felt...
She was trembling with nervousness. She didn't know how high she had climbed. She just climbed up with all her heart. The higher she climbed, the more hope she had for survival.
Perhaps because he was too tired and hadn't eaten much that day, Ren Xin's feet softened and he didn't step on the branch properly, so he suddenly slid down.
It's over... Ren Xin only had this thought at that time. She closed her eyes and prepared to accept her fate.
She still hasn't accomplished anything in this life. Her resistance has been declared over before it even started in a real sense. If she dies like this, in the next life, she will accept her fate and stop fighting...
The sound of howling wolves seemed to be ringing in her ears, but her body stopped falling after this burst of severe pain.
God still favored Ren Xin. Just when Ren Xin was about to give up, a relatively strong branch intercepted her. Ren Xin hugged the branch tightly, as if holding the last straw to save her life. She struggled
Looking down, she could only see a pair of cold eyes staring at her motionless in the darkness.
Ren Xin knew that she was safe for the time being. The wolves should not be able to jump to this height, otherwise they would not stand still. Now the wolves were waiting quietly like this, waiting for the injured Ren Xin to lose her strength and fall down.
Then they can share it and eat it.
This is a protracted battle, and the key to whether he can survive depends on Ren Xin's own physical strength and willpower.
Ren Xin looked at the ground in horror, hugging the tree trunk tightly and not daring to close her eyes, for fear that if she didn't pay attention, she would lose her life.
After climbing up the tree, Ren Xin should have been able to see the fire dancing not far away, but she couldn't see it at all because of her fear. At the moment, she was only paying attention to the cold eyes under the tree.
This night was just a moment of closing and opening eyes for those who were sleeping, but for Ren Xin, it was a very long time. Listening to every second of her own heartbeat, she could feel her life passing by.
Ren Xin didn't dare to close her eyes all night. The clear sunlight dispelled the darkness, and she realized that the environment she was in was very strange. She could see several houses in the distance. Fortunately, there were people around, and Ren Xin felt more relaxed.
In populated areas, these dangerous animals usually hide in the mountains during the day.
The sun slowly jumped out on the mountainside, and the wolves gradually dispersed. Ren Xin sighed weakly, she had no strength to hold on any longer.
A hunter shot a rabbit and was looking for new prey. Walking from a distance, he saw a man sitting on a tree not far away. Ren Xin lost his strength and fell from the tree. The hunter felt that the tree fell.
Something was wrong with the man, so he hurried over with the prey and saw a girl lying on the ground with a bloodless face, not sure if she was still alive.
When Ren Xin woke up again, she didn't know how long it had been. She opened her eyes slightly and saw an old woman wearing a blue cloth with a few patches looking at her happily.
"You've been sleeping for two days and you finally woke up." Ren Xin wanted to get up but her arms couldn't move, so the old lady gently held her back to help her get up.
Ren Xin thanked the old woman, and the old woman told her that her son saw her fall from the tree while hunting, so he brought her back. Ren Xin told her what happened when she was traveling at night.
The old woman was frightened, and she hugged Ren Xin and kept saying: "As long as everything is okay, it will be okay, as long as everything is okay, people are the luckiest when they are okay."
"Thank you..." Regarding the old woman's concern, Ren Xin was so moved that she didn't know what to say. Her nose felt a little sore, and she could only manage to squeeze out three words for a long time.
The old lady brought porridge for Ren Xin to drink. While Ren Xin was drinking, he talked to the old woman for a while. She mentioned that she was going back to Yicheng. The old woman smiled and said that her son was going back to Yicheng.
Yicheng sells wild animals brought back from hunting, just enough to give Ren Xin a ride. Ren Xin is so moved that she doesn't know what to say.
Before leaving, Ren Xin looked at the loose clothes on her body. Although the fabric was not of good quality, it was much better than the clothes on the old woman's body, not to mention there was not a single patch. Orion had packed it up.
The wild animals were being carried on a pole and he was about to leave when the old woman stopped him and said she would give Ren Xin a ride back. Thinking that Ren Xin was injured, the Orion changed the car, piled the wild animals on the car, and let Ren Xin sit on it too.
On the car.
Ren Xin felt really embarrassed, so she said that she was a martial arts practitioner and a minor injury would not be a problem, and refused to get in the car.
After some pushing and shoving, Ren Xin finally left on her own, but Orion still pushed the cart. He told Ren Xin that if she was tired and couldn't hold on any longer, just get in the cart, and he pushed her back to the city.
Ren Xin smiled, Orion and his mother were both very kind and simple people.
The two returned to Yicheng as companions. Orion insisted on sending Ren Xin home, so Ren Xin brought Orion to Yunlai Restaurant. The proprietress saw that Ren Xin, who had been missing for three days, finally came back. She was a little excited and hurriedly stepped forward to hold her back.
Ren Xin looked her up and down, and saw a scratch on Ren Xin's fair face. She was wearing clothes that didn't fit her and she had never seen before, and she couldn't help but worry.
"Xin'er, where have you been? What happened? Why did you hurt your face and change your clothes..."
The landlady had many questions, and Ren Xin didn't know how to answer them for a while, so he had to wait for her to calm down before speaking.
Shitou brought a cup of tea to the proprietress. The proprietress refused to drink it and handed it directly to Ren Xin. Ren Xin took the tea and turned around and handed it to Orion beside her. She told the proprietress that she was injured while walking at night and it was Orion who saved her.
The landlady asked Ren Xin why he walked at night. Ren Xin shook his head and said he would go back to the house later. The landlady stopped questioning and readily bought all the wild animals from Orion, much higher than the market price. Ren Xin let Orion go first.
Don't leave, wait for her in the restaurant.
Ren Xin went back to the house and changed her clothes, folded the clothes that the old woman had changed for her, and packed them with a bag. She came to the front hall and returned the clothes to Orion. Shitou packed the food and wine from the kitchen for Orion to take back.
When Orion left, he thanked her repeatedly. The landlady pulled Ren Xin and smiled, "It's us who should thank you. If you hadn't saved our Xin'er, I don't know what I would have done. From now on, all your wild animals will be sent directly to us.
Just a restaurant..."
The boss lady's way of dealing with things made Ren Xin see what it means to be shrewd and know how to get things done. After living like this for two lifetimes, Ren Xin felt a little ashamed and felt that he was still more than a little immature.
"Ouch, it hurts!" The landlady's unintentional touch touched Ren Xin's wound. Only then did the landlady realize that Ren Xin was injured not just on his face, but all over his body this time.
"Come on, let's go back to the house. I'll give you the medicine. By the way, can you tell me what happened in the past few days?" The smile on the landlady's face disappeared and she looked serious. She felt that things were a bit serious.
But at this moment, Chu Qingchen brought Yi Hua to the restaurant and saw Ren Xin and the proprietress together at a glance. Because they were only looking at each other from the side, he did not see the injury on Ren Xin's face.
"Okay, I planned on Ren Na and asked her to marry Tian Manjin on your behalf. After the rice was cooked, the Tian family and the Ren family were in trouble, but you showed up. I really underestimated you. I didn't expect you.
You are really capable!" Chu Qingchen quickly stepped forward to stop Ren Xin, and said sarcastically in a strange way.
