After Wang Yingxue knocked over the stool, she was extremely uneasy, afraid that she would wake up the others.
However, after standing there for a while and finding that they hadn't woken up, he carefully lifted the stool and continued towards the kitchen.
Unbeknownst to her, Huang Jianguo had already woken up when she got out of bed and was following behind her to see where she wanted to go.
After she knocked over the stool, Chen Zhaodi and Huang Eryuan also woke up.
Because there had been several instances of people stealing things in the middle of the night before, Chen Zhaodi and her friends were particularly sensitive to noises at night.
The family members were in perfect unison; they only quietly came out after seeing Wang Yingxue go into the kitchen.
Then the family of three met up directly in the yard.
After exchanging a few words in silence, the group tiptoed to the vicinity of the kitchen, wanting to see what Wang Yingxue was up to do so late at night.
When Chen Zhaodi and the others saw that Wang Yingxue was just rummaging through things to eat, they breathed a sigh of relief. It turned out she was just hungry.
Huang Jianguo looked at it for a while and felt there was no problem, so he was about to remind Wang Yingxue that she could light a candle.
However, Chen Zhaodi stopped her.
Huang Jianguo, who had been pulled back, looked at Chen Zhaodi in confusion and saw that she and Huang Eryuan both looked horrified.
Huang Jianguo felt even more puzzled. He looked in the direction they were looking, but he didn't find anything wrong.
It's just Wang Yingxue eating something, she only ate a few bags of dried sweet potatoes, what's the big deal?
etc!!!
Huang Jianguo looked again in disbelief and found that Wang Yingxue had actually eaten two large bags of dried sweet potatoes in just over ten minutes!
That bag of dried sweet potatoes weighs at least a pound. Even for a whole family, it would probably be difficult to finish a whole bag.
Wang Yingxue actually ate two large bags by herself, and she's already on her third bag!
Huang Jianguo was so nervous that his palms were sweating, and the family of three tacitly retreated back to their room.
Inside the room
Chen Zhaodi asked in a low voice, "Boss, did you and Yingxue do 'that' tonight?"
When Huang Jianguo was suddenly asked the question, his face involuntarily turned red.
Although he didn't say anything, Chen Zhaodi knew at a glance that they had already taken action.
She continued, "Did you feel Yingxue's body temperature? Did you notice anything wrong with her?"
When Chen Zhaodi saw Wang Yingxue eating so much food alone in the middle of the night, she broke out in a cold sweat.
Can a normal person eat that many dried sweet potatoes at once?
Is the wife her eldest son found not human?!
That can't be...
Seeing that Chen Zhaodi was pale and sweating profusely, Huang Jianguo quickly said, "No, Yingxue is a person!"
"Her body temperature is normal, and her hands and feet are warm. Most importantly, Yingxue has a shadow, Mom, have you forgotten?"
Oh right, Chen Zhaodi remembered that Wang Yingxue had a shadow, while ghosts shouldn't have shadows.
After catching her breath, Chen Zhaodi said in confusion, "How come Yingxue can eat so much? These past two days, she's been eating about the same amount as us."
Huang Eryuan quietly opened the door and found Wang Yingxue still in the kitchen. He suggested, "Why don't we just go out and ask her? That way we'll know."
Chen Zhaodi and Huang Jianguo exchanged a glance and said at the same time, "Great idea!"
Then they decided to go directly to ask Wang Yingxue.
Wang Yingxue, who was still sitting in the kitchen eating, had actually already finished eating.
However, since the dried sweet potatoes were quite delicious, she thought she would eat two more to chew on.
Actually, besides dried sweet potatoes, there are also some candies and cookies in the kitchen cabinets.
However, these things looked very expensive, so Wang Yingxue ate one or two, but dared not eat any more.
She figured she would need to eat a lot to feel full, and the dried sweet potatoes looked the cheapest option, so she chose to eat those.
She hadn't originally planned to eat her fill, but she was so hungry and hadn't had a full meal in a long time.
In addition, the dried sweet potato was even tastier than any she had ever eaten before, and she unknowingly ate more than two bags.
With each sweet potato slice she picked up, Wang Yingxue told herself: This is the last one; I can't eat any more after this.
But her hands wouldn't obey her commands at all, picking up one after another.
Wang Yingxue, engrossed in her meal, was completely unaware that Huang Jianguo and the others had already made their way to the kitchen.
Wang Yingxue only realized something was wrong when Huang Jianguo and the others came over with candles lit, and the kitchen suddenly lit up.
Wang Yingxue stiffly raised her head, and when she saw Huang Jianguo and the others, the dried sweet potato in her mouth fell to the ground with a 'thud'.
She swallowed nervously, unsure of what to say, and finally lowered her head awkwardly.
However, after looking down, Wang Yingxue noticed the dried sweet potato that had fallen on the ground and picked it up again.
Seeing this, Huang Jianguo asked, "Yingxue, are you full?"
Wang Yingxue nodded and replied in a muffled voice, "I'm full."
"If you've eaten, let's go outside and talk."
Huang Jianguo handed the candle to Huang Eryuan, and then helped Wang Yingxue, who was sitting on the ground, up.
Although Wang Yingxue stood up, she still didn't dare to look directly at the three of them. She clutched the dried sweet potato tightly in her hand, lowered her head, and followed them out.
Chen Zhaodi quickly packed the food off the floor and put it back in the cupboard before leaving the kitchen.
After everyone sat down, Huang Eryuan placed the candle in the middle of the table, but Wang Yingxue still didn't dare to look up.
Chen Zhaodi tried to soften her tone to avoid startling Wang Yingxue. She said softly, "Yingxue, don't be nervous, we're just having a chat."
"I'd like to ask, did you not eat enough today, which is why you came out in the middle of the night to rummage for food?"
Wang Yingxue sensed that Chen Zhaodi wasn't angry, so she mustered up her courage, raised her head, and stole a glance.
Seeing that none of them looked angry or upset, Wang Yingxue replied, "Yes, I was so hungry that I got up and ate something."
The other three: (☉_☉) Just a little? It can't be just a little...
Chen Zhaodi continued, "Is your stomach feeling very full now? I see you ate a lot of dried sweet potatoes."
Seeing that Chen Zhaodi was in a normal mood, Wang Yingxue wondered if she should just tell them the truth. Maybe they could accept it?
So he tentatively said, "It's okay, I'm just full, I don't feel stuffed."
After saying that, he waited for Chen Zhaodi and the others to react.
Chen Zhaodi was screaming inwardly: We've only just finished eating?! Good heavens!!!
Huang Jianguo suddenly felt immense pressure and ate two large bags of dried sweet potatoes in one go, only to find that he was still not full.
He had some doubts about whether his salary would be enough to support Wang Yingxue.
