Chapter 173: Taken Away
Song Chongjin, however, never would!
He’d rather go up the mountain to pick wild fruits or vegetables to eat, never once venturing into someone else’s vegetable garden to pluck their crops.
Thinking this, Wang Yongzhu felt that Song Chongjin was truly pitiable.
With the same frail constitution, the original had been spoiled without principle by her biological mother, while Song Chongjin had to support a family at such a young age, tsk tsk...
Song Chongjin was stunned for a moment, staring at the tomato in Wang Yongzhu’s hand for quite a while before hesitantly reaching out to take it, "Thank you—"
When he took the tomato, he accidentally touched Wang Yongzhu’s fingers, feeling that unlike men’s rough hands, hers were delicate and soft, making his heartbeat skip.
He quickly tightened his grip on the tomato and withdrew his hand, feeling that the area where he had touched Wang Yongzhu’s hand was warm.
Wang Yongzhu didn’t feel a thing; in her time and space, such accidental contact was so common, she didn’t think twice about it.
Withdrawing her hand, she shared a tomato with Wang Yongping, and the three of them nibbled on the tomatoes as they walked.
Wang Yongping suggested, "Shall we take the shortcut? It’s getting late; if we take the main road to town and back, it will be dark by the time we return."
Song Chongjin had no objection, as he often took shortcuts over the mountains to the town to save time, but what about Wang Yongzhu?
