Chapter 274 - 265: A Visitor Arrives Late at Night
At four o’clock in the afternoon, under the coercion of Li Xianglu, Su Yan ate a bowl of rock sugar sea cucumber, brought a large kettle of mung bean water, a portion of spiced boiled eggs, a portion of deep-fried chicken legs, four watermelons, and twenty muskmelons for the road.
After seeing off Su Yan, Li Xianglu heated up the pig’s trotters soup from lunch, and then warmed up some flower rolls; the old master felt a bit listless after Su Yan left.
If they had always been living apart, it would have been fine. But after living together for a long period and then parting ways, it was very hard to get used to. He always felt like something was missing beside him. Whenever he thought of something and wanted to talk to the person next to him, he found they were no longer there. The feeling of loneliness made the old master listless for the following two or three days.
It wasn’t until Su Yan made several calls to confirm she would return before winter that he started to feel a little better.
In the following days, Li Xianglu occasionally brought some food over, because most of the food was sent by The Ais’ people.
And Li Xianglu also found out why The Ais’ people were so eager to take care of their third brother.
The third brother is just a fool!
The situation was critical at the time. When Li Jianqing heard a cry for help, he ran towards it. With no lights and only a flashlight to guide him, he treaded uneven ground, trudging through the difficult mountain paths.
There were cries and sounds of a scuffle coming from a cabin, and Li Jianqing, disregarding everything, kicked the door open and went in. Then, he saw Iro being pressed down by a man.
Iro’s clothes were torn to shreds, leaving her nearly uncovered.
