He didn't want to; he already regretted it.
The first rays of morning sunlight shone through the cracks in the window of the woodshed.
The sunlight shone on Liu Jianlin's eyelids, forcing him to wake up.
He was in pain all night and finally managed to fall asleep just before dawn, but the blazing sunlight woke him up.
Liu Jianlin cursed inwardly; he had really messed up his plan and ended up losing more than he gained!
If he had known this would happen, he shouldn't have had those inappropriate thoughts.
Now look what happened, they didn't even get to eat the chicken, and they even got themselves killed.
He didn't know if his mother had noticed that he hadn't come home all night.
Liu Jianlin hoped that his mother, Huang Meihua, would notice he was missing and come looking for him, then he would still have a glimmer of hope.
However, he had no idea what was happening outside, nor did he know whether Jiang Anxia and the other person were going to take him to the police station once they got up.
Liu Jianlin now hopes that the two of them will get up a little later, so that he will have a chance to escape.
It turned out that while Liu Jianlin was lost in thought, he lowered his head and tried his best to bite the rope binding him, but because the rope was too thick, he couldn't get any results even after biting for a long time.
Liu Jianlin did not give up, but instead bit harder and harder.
He has to pay a price to escape this place.
An Yuxi's room.
An Yuxi opened her eyes as sunlight streamed into the room through the cracks in the window.
Stretching in bed, An Yuxi resignedly got up.
I have things to do today, so I can't stay in bed.
Thinking this, An Yuxi quickly got up, carefully dressed, tidied herself up, and then opened the door and went out.
Once outside, An Yuxi headed straight for the woodshed.
I wonder how Liu Jianlin is doing now, or if he's still not making a move.
He shouldn't be dead, right? He did know his limits!
As soon as An Yuxi reached the door, she heard a 'pui pui' sound coming from inside.
The sound wasn't loud, apparently because they were afraid of waking them up.
An Yuxi rolled his eyes. He had thought something had happened to Liu Jianlin.
In hindsight, he was overthinking things.
The man still had the strength to bite the rope, so he seemed to be alright; he was just overthinking it.
After thinking it over, An Yuxi turned and walked towards the kitchen.
An Yuxi went into the kitchen to brew Jiang Anxia's medicine, so that she could drink it after breakfast.
Jiang Anxia was sleeping soundly when a dream suddenly struck her.
It was a bowl of medicine that kept chasing her, so she ran forward desperately, not wanting the bowl of medicine to catch up with her.
But no matter how fast she ran, the drug always managed to catch up with her.
Jiang Anxia gave up; she stopped running. Let them catch up if they want! She was too tired to run anymore anyway.
Just as Jiang Anxia was taking her medicine, she woke up.
Jiang Anxia, who had just woken up, patted her chest in relief, still feeling a lingering fear. She had thought she was destined to drink that bowl of medicine.
Jiang Anxia had forgotten that she had to take medicine with every meal.
Jiang Anxia got dressed in a daze and got up, braiding her hair into two braids as usual, which hung down on both sides of her shoulders.
Jiang Anxia noticed that she now quite likes to braid her hair, so that it won't bother her while she's working.
She has completely adapted to life here; it's slow-paced and quite leisurely.
Although it was not as developed as later generations, each era has its own characteristics.
Jiang Anxia finished braiding her hair, covered her mouth with her left hand, and opened the door while yawning.
An Yuxi, who was watering vegetables in the yard, heard the noise and subconsciously turned to look at Jiang Anxia.
"Good morning, Third Brother." Jiang Anxia put down her hand and greeted An Yuxi in a soft and sweet voice.
"Good morning, how did you sleep last night?" An Yuxi asked with concern.
"It's fine." It's just that I had a nightmare.
Jiang Anxia didn't say the second half of her sentence aloud; she kept it to herself.
"That's good. I've kept your breakfast warm in the pot. Go and eat!" An Yuxi breathed a sigh of relief.
He was genuinely worried that Jiang Anxia would have nightmares because of what happened last night, but now that he heard Jiang Anxia say that she slept well, he immediately breathed a sigh of relief.
As long as I sleep well, at least I wasn't affected.
As soon as Jiang Anxia stepped into the kitchen, she smelled a strong odor of Chinese medicine, and her expression immediately changed.
It smells bitter, it's terrifying.
With a slight pursing of her lips, Jiang Anxia tried her best to control herself as she walked to the pot and opened the lid.
Inside, there was a bowl of porridge, a few steamed buns, and an egg.
Jiang Anxia brought them out one by one and placed them on the small table in the kitchen, without going to the main room.
It's fine for one person to eat in the kitchen; the main room feels empty and very quiet.
An Yuxi could see Jiang Anxia sitting in the kitchen eating breakfast as soon as she looked up.
His lips involuntarily curved upwards as he looked at Jiang Anxia with gentle affection.
Little girls should be like this, carefree.
Jiang Anxia ate her meal attentively. After finishing breakfast, she sat there staring at the bowl of Chinese medicine.
She really didn't want to drink it!
“Xiaxia, no matter how much you look at it, it won’t decrease.” An Yuxi said with a smile.
How can it be so fun to make a little girl drink medicine!
"No, I just thought it was too hot and wanted to cool it down." Jiang Anxia said this nonsense with a straight face.
If you want her to admit that she refused to drink the medicine because it was too bitter, she'll lose face!
"I've prepared some for you." With that, An Yuxi took out a White Rabbit milk candy from her pocket and placed it in front of Jiang Anxia.
Jiang Anxia looked at the milk candy in front of her, and an indescribable feeling welled up in her heart.
She wasn't a sweet-loving person, and although she had plenty of candy in her space, none of them could compare to the one An Yuxi had given her.
Without saying a word, Jiang Anxia picked up the medicine bowl and drank it directly.
She had come to terms with it; no matter how bitter the medicine was, she could drink it all in one go.
Besides, taking the medicine is for her own good, so she has no reason to dawdle any longer. She might as well drink it all in one go and be done with it.
When An Yuxi saw that Jiang Anxia didn't say anything, but directly picked up the medicine bowl and drank it in one gulp, her eyes widened instantly.
He knew how bitter the medicine was; after all, the bitter smell in the air when he was brewing it almost made him tastier.
Now, Jiang Anxia drank it without even changing her expression, making An Yuxi feel sorry for her.
After taking the medicine, Jiang Anxia put down the bowl, picked up the candy on the table, unwrapped it, and started eating.
Although she could control it, her mouth was just too bitter, so she needed something sweet to soothe it!
"Xiaxia, I'm going out for a bit. Stay home and make sure the door is locked so no strangers come in." An Yuxi still feels a chill whenever she thinks about what happened last night.
So he decided it was best to remind her before leaving, since he was afraid Jiang Anxia might forget.
"Third Brother..." Jiang Anxia was interrupted by An Yuxi before she could finish speaking.
"Be good, I'll bring you candy when I get back." An Yuxi coaxed Jiang Anxia like she was a child.
Jiang Anxia was speechless. She had really grown up! Why did everyone still treat her like a child?
