Chapter 157 There is hope
Xiao Guoer looked at the open door with empty eyes, as if she couldn't believe that the man who had always been so accommodating and tolerant to her was really gone like this.
Did he really stop caring about her?
Her eyes were filled with confusion and helplessness, and she seemed to have lost her soul. Her body slid weakly onto the stool.
She didn't know how long she sat like this until her stomach started to growl.
A wave of hunger hit her, and she came to her senses. She hadn't eaten properly all day, and her empty stomach had begun to protest.
Nothing is more important than filling your stomach!
She picked up the chopsticks as if nothing had happened, picked up a crab meat lion head, and bit off half of it in one bite as if to vent her anger.
Tch, it’s said to be the most famous dish in Huaiyang, but the taste is not that good!
She swallowed the tasteless crab meat lion head in a hurry, and picked up a squirrel fish and stuffed it into her mouth.
She ate too fast and a fish bone got stuck in her tongue. She angrily pulled it out and suddenly she felt a sharp pain in her tongue, so much so that her heart ached.
She couldn't bear the pain. She was most afraid of pain. Her tears fell uncontrollably and her little mouth pursed, forming a downward curve. She looked so aggrieved.
Her tears fell harder and harder, she had no appetite for food, and she cried so hard that her body twitched.
The emotions of pretending to be strong, sadness and grievance finally found an outlet, and they burst out like a flood that needed to be released. She cried without caring about anything.
Before Tang Jingchen reached the door, he heard a suppressed sobbing sound. His heart tightened and he took two quick steps. As soon as he entered the door, he saw the little girl crying loudly with oil residue hanging from the corners of her mouth. She looked so pitiful.
His heart softened all of a sudden, and the lingering anger was replaced by helplessness and heartache.
He had just walked halfway, but he was still worried about her. Although he was still angry, he turned back.
The aggrieved little girl, with tears in her eyes, seemed to see the man who left her coming back.
She blinked her eyes, and the tears in her eyes fell down her cheeks.
When her vision was no longer blurred, she saw clearly that the person standing at the door was indeed Tang Jingchen, who had threatened to not meddle in her affairs anymore and walked away!
The little girl immediately felt sad, and then suddenly realized that the way she looked now was making a fool of herself in his eyes.
So, she said in a stiff tone, "I was pricked by a fish bone and I cried because of the pain. Please don't misunderstand me!"
Tang Jingchen was angry and helpless, and sighed: What a stubborn little girl!
I couldn't bear to see her so sad, so I sat down next to her and asked gently, "Where did you get the piercing? Is it serious? Let me see."
The little girl stopped crying at this time. She snorted, pouted, raised her head, and said angrily, "Didn't you say you would never meddle in other people's business again? What does it have to do with you whether I prick the fishbone or where I prick it? Why should I show it to you!"
Relying on her boyfriend's submission and concession, the girl started to act coquettishly again. Her coquettish and pretentious appearance made people hate her very much, but also very cute.
Tang Jingchen was almost laughing at her, but he still patiently coaxed her, "I did say that I won't meddle in other people's business, but that was about other people! You are my daughter-in-law, and everything you do is a big deal to me! How can it be considered a small matter?"
The little girl snorted again and said indignantly, "Who is your wife-to-be? Didn't you leave so decisively just now? Didn't you want to ignore me? Why are you trying to get close to me now?"
"I never wanted to ignore you! Unlike someone, who actually wanted to separate from me!"
When Tang Jingchen finished speaking, his voice was low and lost, as if he had suffered a great injustice. His eyes were filled with deep condemnation as he stared straight at the conscienceless girl in front of him.
Xiao Guoer immediately felt guilty. She said that breaking up was indeed too much. She was too embarrassed to act coquettishly at this time. She stammered, "...I...didn't mean that...I was just angry...I didn't want to break up with you..."
Halfway through the conversation, the girl seemed a little embarrassed, with an unnatural blush on her cheeks. She looked around the table and evasively picked up a crab meat with chopsticks and put it into the man's bowl, trying to change the subject, "Try this dish, it's delicious!"
After saying this, she didn't dare to look at the man's teasing eyes and just started eating.
"Oh, hurry up and eat, the food is getting cold, and stop talking. Don't talk while eating or sleeping, you know?"
Tang Jingchen looked at the little girl who wanted to play ostrich, and the gloom in his heart disappeared. He picked up the crab meat lion head in the bowl and took a bite.
The meatballs were already cold, smelled fishy, and were not as delicious as when they were fresh out of the pot. He thought, I'll take her to eat them again tomorrow.

The early morning sunlight was not strong enough to penetrate the dense branches and leaves of the forest.
The deep mountains are filled with the rich scent of grass and trees, mixed with misty water vapor, creating a unique atmosphere.
Accompanied by the melodious sound of gurgling water, everyone walked upstream along the river.
When Xiao Guoer saw the large group of black bat corpses near the spring, her scalp went numb and goose bumps appeared one after another.
Besides being shocked, I also felt it was reasonable.
Bats are animals that carry a high density of viruses. The spring water flows through such a large number of bat corpses. It would be strange if people did not get infected with the virus after drinking such water.
But why did such a large number of bats die, and why did they die near this spring?
The local villagers were also amazed when they saw it, but no one knew what was going on.
This scene was so strange that the villagers automatically thought it was a punishment from God.
Xiao Guoer didn't care. Although she didn't know the reason for the massive death of bats, she was sure that it had nothing to do with God's punishment.
She is not a natural biologist and has no interest in or desire to study such strange phenomena.
She only knew that Yuanyuan was saved! And the villagers were saved too!
