Chapter 519 Young Marshal Huo's Little Mute 10
She did want to see the other person when they weren't there, but once they actually appeared, Song Jinhuan found herself quite flustered.
Not to mention he did it in this way.
It's fortunate that she has a strong sense of danger; otherwise, she might not have woken up.
Huo Ze waited for a while, but the little mute boy was still huddled in the corner.
He bent down and turned on the bedside lamp, the dim light instantly projecting the image of the girl curled up on the wall.
Her bright, clear black and white eyes were looking at him nervously.
Huo Ze raised an eyebrow and pressed his large hand down on the edge of the bed.
She shrank even further.
Tsk... I haven't seen you for just a few days, and you're already worried about this.
Song Jinhuan watched him sit down and unbutton the top two buttons of his military green jacket with one hand.
Recalling how this person brazenly took off his clothes last time, his pupils suddenly contracted.
Huo Ze is used to doing things his own way and doesn't care about the lives or deaths of others at all.
If she could speak now, she would definitely speak up to stop it!
"you……"
Suddenly, Huo Ze leaned close to her and gently poked her lowered face with his finger, asking with a mixture of surprise and confusion, "Little mute, why are you blushing?"
His voice was clear and crisp, with a slight hoarseness mixed with a faint smile, like sand grinding deep inside the ear, quite irritating.
Song Jinhuan dodged to the side, scratched her ear awkwardly, and glanced at him quickly.
Huo Ze sat back up, "I didn't expect that little mute would want to see this handsome man take off his clothes."
Song Jinhuan suffered in silence, being falsely accused by Huo Ze, which is truly infuriating.
She took out a notebook from under her pillow and quickly wrote three words on it with her pen.
【I don't】
Huo Ze was surprised. "Oh, I didn't expect him to be a literate mute."
The little mute boy's handwriting was beautiful, delicate yet graceful, with a touch of elegance in the strokes.
My father was a scholar.
As mentioned in the original storyline, Ruan's father was among the last group of scholars during the period of cultural transition between China and the West.
Frustrated and unsuccessful, he developed eczema and ruined his family's small business. Then, he suddenly realized his mistake and managed to quit eczema altogether.
In the following years, due to the rapid turnover of power between the old and new regimes, wars broke out everywhere.
The bandits became increasingly rampant, and the government's repeated attempts to suppress them were ineffective, instead emboldening them.
On that day, the inhuman bandits looted Ruanjia Village and beat many men to death.
Ruan's father was seriously injured and wrote a letter to Huo Yuanzhong. A few days later, he received a reply and gave the jade pendant to Ruan Ying, telling her to go and seek refuge with him.
With his only concern resolved, the last breath he had been holding on to finally dissipated.
Ruan Ying was mute because her father had been smoking black lumps.
Whether Ruan Ying was literate is not mentioned in the original text, but Song Jinhuan's explanation is plausible.
Huo Ze praised without reservation: "Your handwriting is quite good."
Song Jinhuan blushed slightly. In this era, most people were busy surviving, and very few women could read, especially in some poor and remote areas, where some people did not even have the right to read.
【Thanks】
Huo Ze raised an eyebrow, not quite used to the peaceful atmosphere between the two.
A provocative smile curled at the corners of his lips. "Little mute, how's my bed?"
Song Jinhuan hesitated for a moment, then honestly wrote: "Hmm, it would be great if we added another mattress."
Huo Ze raised his hand and flicked the small notebook facing him, saying mercifully, "Perhaps... this general can help you cushion it."
(Some things are quite sensitive, so this is a fictional world set in the Republican era, and many words will be replaced with different meanings.)
