My mind was filled with voices cursing myself and Huo Jinyan, and as I kept cursing, I started to go off track.
Why has Huo Jinyan been gone for so long and hasn’t come back yet? A wild boar has come down the mountain, and the wild boar is so big. Will something happen to him?
I heard that wild boars have strong attack power and the fangs in their mouths can pierce an adult man's thigh.
if……
Jiang Mengning was useless again. She knew that she was being too eager, but there was nothing she could do. She couldn't help but want to care about Huo Jinyan.
"This time, just this once, she just needs to make sure he's safe."
He got out of bed, opened the door and ran out.
There are a lot of noisy sounds in the village, everywhere.
She couldn't find Huo Jinyan at all.
Finally, we went to Grandma Zhang's house to ask if the children were safe.
After learning that everything was fine, he went to the old lady again.
Just then, the old lady was about to come out with her cane.
"Mengning, I'm glad you're here. I was worried about you, afraid something might happen to you. Did Jinyan go hunting wild boars?"
She knew her grandson would not ignore the matter.
Jiang Mengning helped the old lady sit down beside the bed.
"Don't worry, grandma. I'm fine. Huo Jinyan went out and hasn't come back yet."
The old lady knew her grandson was capable, so she comforted him, "Don't worry too much. Jinyan has been smart since he was a child, nothing will happen to him. Just stay here with grandma until the wild boar is caught."
Jiang Mengning hummed in a low mood.
The old lady was almost half buried in the ground. She had lived long enough, so how could she not see that Jiang Mengning was thinking something?
"What's wrong Ningning? Why are you unhappy?"
Jiang Mengning was reluctant to speak and looked into the distance in silence.
The old lady sighed.
"Did you have a fight with Jinyan? Hey, I knew that Jinyan couldn't take care of girls. He's stupid."
She thought of what Huo Jinyan had experienced since childhood and couldn't help but feel her eyes sore.
"Ningning, don't worry, grandma won't interfere in your affairs. My grandson has a weird personality, so he should be worried."
"But Jinyan is a kind-hearted child. He definitely doesn't have any bad intentions. His mother didn't want him since he was born. His father married a stepmother. You've seen her too. She's a strong woman and doesn't care about Jinyan at all."
"When Jinyan was little, he not only suffered from hunger but was also often cursed and beaten by his stepmother. He was kicked out at a very young age and lived in a thatched hut at the end of the village for more than ten years."
"I still remember one time, a wild boar came to the village. He was alone and was nearly killed by it. Fortunately, the child was lucky enough to escape from the wild boar's mouth. But although he didn't die, he was bitten all over. That night, he had a high fever and was delirious."
"Her stepmother didn't save him and left him to fend for himself. I'm a coward and couldn't beg those people, so I had no choice but to carry the child on my back and seek medical treatment everywhere."
"I said that the child was lucky. He was able to survive such a serious injury. Not long after, he was fine."
"But since then, Jinyan has become taciturn and doesn't like to talk. He's cold to everyone except me."
"I know, he has no choice. He has to act like an adult and act tough in order to survive. His awkward personality was also developed at that time. In fact, even though he looks like he doesn't care about anything, he is really in need of love. He longs for love from his parents, but he doesn't get it. His biological father doesn't care, his stepmother abuses him, and his biological mother won't look for him either. He's really, really pitiful."
As she spoke, the old lady actually started to cry.
Jiang Mengning couldn't utter a word for a long time.
Huo Jinyan actually has such a background.
She always thought that Wang Guihua was his biological mother, and his brothers and sisters were also his biological brothers and sisters.
Unexpectedly, neither is true.
Wang Guihua is a stepmother! And a vicious one at that.
Just listening to the old lady describe Huo Jinyan's childhood, I felt worried for him.
How did Huo Jinyan survive in such a backward environment as a child?
Not only did he survive, but he also became the head of a regiment. His experience is truly legendary.
Her heart was beating so fast that Jiang Mengning couldn't sit still.
"Grandma, there doesn't seem to be any movement outside. I'll go out and take a look. You should get some rest. It's getting late."
After saying that, he turned and ran away.
"Ningning, be careful..."
Jiang Mengning's head was buzzing with the sound of her grandmother talking about Huo Jinyan as a child.
He was beaten and scolded, and was almost bitten to death by a wild boar.
So pitiful.
Wild boar?
Where did Huo Jinyan go? Was the wild boar caught?
She was so anxious that she almost fell into the ditch several times.
"Jiang Mengning."
Huo Jinyan's anxious voice came from a distance, and the man was walking around with a flashlight looking for someone.
Jiang Mengning felt a pang in her heart and shouted, "Huo Jinyan, I'm here."
Soon, Huo Jinyan rushed over.
He was covered in black and white and looked pale.
"Where have you been? Didn't I tell you not to run around?"
He was so nervous that he yelled directly at Jiang Mengning.
"You're a little girl out there, don't you know it's dangerous? What if you encounter a wild boar?"
She couldn't even think about it. If she really encountered a wild boar, she would definitely die!
Huo Jinyan felt even more annoyed.
Jiang Mengning sniffed, and her voice was a little tearful.
"You've been out for too long, I just wanted to find you!"
He shuddered and froze.
She looked so pitiful, almost crying! How could he have the heart to scold her?
He pulled her into his arms and held her tightly.
"Don't cry, there's no way anything could happen to me. The wild boar can't do anything to me."
"Okay, okay, let's go home first!"
