Chapter 233 - 225: Leverage
"Brother Xin Hua, it sounds like someone’s over there." Tian Sisi’s ears were sharp, being the first to hear the noise, while Tian Xinhua had heard it even earlier, also lifting his head to look in the direction of the sounds.
"What noise? I didn’t hear anything!" Zhong Anmei scouted around but couldn’t hear a sound.
"Because your ears are just for show!" Tian Sisi teased her.
Gradually, the noise became louder, and everyone could hear it. It was indeed someone moaning, intermittently, faintly.
"Let’s go over and have a look; if someone is hurt, we can also help," Zhong Anping stood up and suggested, receiving consensus from everyone.
They headed towards the bushes from where the noises were coming. As they approached, the sounds grew louder and clearer. Tian Sisi cursed her luck, how shameless for someone to be having a tryst in the wild on the first day of the New Year, and they just happened to stumble upon it.
But she couldn’t really say they shouldn’t go over to check; people in this era were truly innocent, not like teenagers from her previous life who were already masters of love affairs.
"Ah Nan, An Mei, Juying, you girls stay back and don’t go there, we few will go and check it out." Tian Xinhua had also clearly heard that the sounds were off and, though a pure young man himself, his three years in Beijing exposed him to all walks of life, giving him some understanding of matters between men and women.
Tian Xinhua’s handsome face turned red as he quickly held Tian Sisi back; he couldn’t allow Ah Nan to see such dirty things. Although Tian Sisi was very curious to see which pair of wild lovebirds it was, she obediently nodded and stayed back with Zhong Anmei and the others.
Zhong Anping and Zhong Ankang also realized at this moment that something was off. Their faces turned red, and they had the intention not to look, but the curiosity of youth prevailed over all else. They pulled their sisters far back and snuck forward silently themselves.
