Chapter 394 - 403: The Stepmother Arrives
He didn’t care whether the room was occupied or not. Even if it was, so what? This place was his home, and he was determined. Only a fool would give this Siheyuan to that idiot Qin Yang. This Siheyuan was the capital to become wealthy. Once he had this Siheyuan, he could have whatever he wanted.
He slipped the watch onto his wrist. Tsk, perfect fit. He couldn’t help but open the wardrobe again—all inside were men’s clothes, white shirts, suit pants, suits, and T-shirts, which all seemed new.
He sniffed his own clothes; they reeked. Without a second thought, he stripped off his clothes and changed into the new ones. They were a bit large, but by tucking them into his pants and cinching them with a belt, they actually looked pretty good. There was a mirror on top of the wardrobe. He admired himself in the mirror for a long time. These clothes suited him so well. Not bad, he liked them.
Initially, he wanted to look for other things. But he’d just got off the train and was so tired that he didn’t continue searching. Instead, he just lay down and fell asleep. After all, a monk can run away, but the temple won’t run with him. The whole Siheyuan would be his alone eventually.
He thought and smiled. Before long, he was dreaming and snoring soundly.
As for Hu Li outside, she was rummaging through things here and there. She wasn’t sleeping now, still waiting for Granny Lu to cook for her. Of course, she only dared to wander around the front yard. There was a dog locked in the back. Although it was locked up now, what if it got out? She was still afraid of being bitten by the dog.
She plopped down at the stone table and slapped the table.
"Old hag, get me a glass of water. Can’t you see I’m thirsty?"
