Chapter 103 Fire in the Courtyard (1/2)



Le Yao thought that Ruan Yunxi and his wife would come to apologize to her the next day.

But after waiting and waiting, Ruan Yunxi and Gu Weizhou never showed up. They found out that Gu Weizhou had gone to training.

Ruan Yunxi and Sister-in-law Sheng went to the beach.

Many of the other members of the performing arts troupe went to the beach.

The water at the beach isn't particularly cold right now, and the wind isn't too strong either; you can wear long sleeves.

Le Yao had lost face so badly yesterday that she was too embarrassed to show her face. She could only pretend to be sick at the guesthouse and ask that woman to help her with her food and drinks.

Ruan Yunxi and her group returned from their beachcombing trip with a good haul.

Ruan Yunxi collected a lot of pretty seashells, and Sister-in-law Sheng said they could be made into beautiful shapes.

Ruan Yunxi then thought of making a craft item depicting a smooth sailing journey, which she would then give to Gu's father.

Mr. Gu prepared a gift for her when they met, so she had to reciprocate.

It just so happens that there are plenty of beautiful seashells by the sea, so Ruan Yunxi's own creation is even more meaningful.

On the way, she encountered Le Yao's little follower, a woman who was a little wary of Ruan Yunxi. She was timid when she saw Ruan Yunxi and stammered, "Le Yao asked you to go find her, saying she has something to say to you."

"Tell her to wait at the beach that night." Ruan Yunxi refused to listen to his instructions.

If Le Yao tells her to go, she should just go; she'd lose face.

When Le Yao learned that Ruan Yunxi had mentioned going to the beach that night, it's worth noting that Le Yao had a psychological trauma from that night, as she had thought she would die at Ruan Yunxi's hands.

She wouldn't dare go now.

"Shouldn't we have her come over?" Le Yao said, dissatisfied.

The woman said, "She just told me to go to the beach, and I couldn't stop her if she didn't come!"

Le Yao was furious, but in order to upset Ruan Yunxi, she had no choice but to overcome her fear and go to the beach to wait.

They waited from almost noon until the afternoon. When they checked their watches, it was already past three o'clock, and they hadn't seen a single trace of Ruan Yunxi, let alone her.

Passersby assumed she had suffered some kind of trauma yesterday and was having suicidal thoughts, glancing at her every now and then.

Others advised, "It's just a small setback, nothing to worry about."

"It is a great virtue that you can correct your mistakes."

"Don't think like that, isn't it good to be alive?"

"Think about your parents, it wasn't easy for them to raise you..."

Le Yao, unable to bear it any longer, said: "Shut up, I'm not thinking of doing anything stupid!"

The kind-hearted comrade: "......"

Good deeds are never rewarded!

snort!

Le Yao knew she had been tricked by Ruan Yunxi. She angrily returned to the family compound and went to Ruan Yunxi's house. Only Ruan Yunxi was home, taking a nap. The gate was closed.

Le Yao looked at the pile of dry branches and thatch on the side; they were good for starting a fire.

Gu Weizhou had deliberately piled them up on the side so that it would be convenient to start a fire.

Little did she know that Le Yao had her eye on her. She saw that no one was around, everyone was taking a nap, the officers were training, and the family compound was mostly filled with military dependents and their children.

Le Yao stared at the thatch, a malicious glint in her eyes.

She didn't wake Ruan Yunxi. Instead, as if nothing had happened, she stood at the gate for a while, then hurriedly left, avoiding the crowd. When she passed by Sister Sheng's house, she deliberately covered her face and ran away.

As if afraid that Sister-in-law Sheng would find out.

In the rush, I didn't even notice that something had fallen to the ground.
