Chapter 68 Mask
Ye Rou was completely unaware and said cheerfully, "I'm going to watch the fun."
She was just about to share the new melon she had eaten today when she suddenly realized something. She turned around and saw everyone in the yard looking at her with burning eyes.
Not only were they looking, but everyone was smiling extraordinarily...sweetly?
Ye Rou's face flushed instantly: "I'll tell you later."
She went to the kitchen.
Zhou Liang was about to make a joke when he met Jiang Ge's gloomy expression.
He suppressed his smile and continued to discuss how to capture Wang Meng.
"Brother Jiang, even Li Liangang has never met Wang Meng. What if we catch the wrong person..."
Ye Rou paused while striking the match.
"Wang Meng?"
The second person Jiang Chen killed actually arrived so soon?
In the book, Jiang Chen was slandered by Jiang Xing in his previous life. He took the blame and was about to be sent to the police station. The night before, he learned about his life experience and fled Dahe Village.
But he was captured as soon as he entered the town.
He was sold to a black coal mine by human traffickers, where he spent five years in darkness and hopelessness.
If the accidental collapse of the black mine had not attracted the attention of the local government, he would have died there.
After being reborn, Jiang Chen has been looking for the gang that kidnapped and trafficked him. Wang Meng is just a small fish on this line.
In the book, Jiang Chen broke Wang Meng's legs and threw him into a trap in the mountains, where he starved to death.
Ye Rou didn't want Jiang Chen to kill anyone. That was a road of no return. Once he embarked on it, there would be no turning back.
But how could she dispel the resentment he had accumulated throughout his life and make him give up the idea of killing?
Ye Rou had no choice but to try her best.
She stood up, took out all the ingredients in the house, and rolled up her sleeves.
After Jiang Chen finished talking about things, he sent the person away and went into the kitchen.
The kitchen was filled with the smell of smoke, and he stared at the dishes on the table for a moment.
There are six dishes in total, including the one Ye Rou is cooking in the pot: stir-fried bamboo shoots with wood ear mushrooms, stir-fried pork with chili peppers, stewed chicken with mushrooms, stewed green beans with potatoes, and stir-fried pork.
Ye Rou always said that eating too much at night would hurt his stomach and forbade him to eat too much. What happened today?
There must be something wrong when things are abnormal. Jiang Chen sat at the table, smiling lazily. He was curious about what the little monster was going to do.
Ye Rou served the last dish of boiled fish slices. Under the bright red peppers were the snow-white and tender fish slices.
Jiang Chen had a big appetite and ate three bowls of rice.
When he finished his second bowl, Ye Rou wanted to call him, but no sound came out.
Jiang Chen became more and more greedy and after finishing the third bowl, he wanted to get a fourth bowl.
Ye Rou couldn't help it: "Don't eat too much, it's bad for your stomach."
Jiang Chen was stopped and put down his bowl.
He waited for the little monster to speak, but the little monster was particularly patient tonight.
She handed the reserved food to Jiang Chen and asked him to take it to the cowshed.
Jiang Chen wants to take her with him.
Ye Rou refused: "No, the shadow won't come."
Jiang Chen pondered for a moment: "Is the black shadow Wang Cuiwei?"
"How do you know?" Ye Rou widened her eyes.
Jiang Chen smiled coldly: "I guessed it."
He remembered Wang Cuiwei and went to the cowshed alone.
As soon as Jiang Chen left, Ye Rou opened the system.
Today she heard about [Sun Feng Catches an Adulterer], [Two Men Fighting Over One Woman] and [Twilight Love].
The first two count as one melon and you can draw two prizes.
Ye Rou clicked the lottery button, and the black pointer spun wildly. Finally, under Ye Rou's gaze, it stopped at the pink reward, [Dimple: A sweet and charming smile].
She was used to it and clicked again.
I thought it was another pink beauty reward. After all, the more times you draw a color block on the turntable, the greater the probability. Now the probability of drawing pink is 80%.
The black pointer spun wildly, and under Ye Rou's surprised gaze, it actually stopped on the blue reward: Lucky Charm Paper!
This was the first time Ye Rou drew a blue reward.
A golden talisman paper fell into Ye Rou's hand. She blinked and called out the system.
【Hello, host.】
Ye Rou asked, "What are the restrictions on this lucky charm paper?"
【Valid for three days.】
After hearing this, Ye Rou's eyebrows moved slightly: "Can it be used by others?"
[Host reward, you can use it at your own discretion.]
Ye Rou fell silent.
Today's six dishes delighted the three old men in the cowshed. Even Old Man Zheng, who usually had no appetite, got up and ate a few mouthfuls of rice.
Jiang Chen was in a hurry to go back and see what the little monster was up to, so he didn't stay in the bullpen for long.
After returning home, the light in the west room was on. Seeing him come back, Ye Rou lay on the window of the west room and waved to him.
There is a warm yellow halo behind Ye Rou, painting in the darkness, and she is the only bright color.
Jiang Chen walked into the west room. Ye Rou smiled very gently and patted the pillow beside her, motioning him to lie down on the kang.
He didn't understand why, but he didn't refuse.
After he lay down, Ye Rou unfolded a row of golden needles on her side. Under the dim light bulb, the golden needles emitted a sharp cold light.
Jiang Chen blocked her hand: "What are you going to do?"
Ye Rou smiled earnestly: "Don't you have a headache? I read in a book that acupuncture can relieve pain."
Jiang Chen snorted and chuckled, snatched the golden needle from her hand and put it back into the needle bag, then grabbed Ye Rou's hand and pulled her down.
Ye Rou lost her grip on one hand and fell on Jiang Chen.
With her cheek resting on Jiang Chen's chest, she couldn't see his face clearly, but she heard him say, "Let me hug you, and your headache will go away."
Ye Rou was stunned. Without struggling, she followed Jiang Chen's strength and slipped into his arms.
The body in his arms was soft and fragrant. Jiang Chen curled the corners of his lips and stroked Ye Rou's long hair.
In the silence, Ye Rou asked him, "Are you going to arrest someone the day after tomorrow?"
Jiang Chen pinched Ye Rou's smooth face and said lazily, "You heard it, why are you asking?"
Ye Rou placed her hand on Jiang Chen's arm and said softly, "Promise me one thing, and I'll give you a gift, okay?"
Here it comes.
Jiang Chen curled his lips into a smile, his voice still calm: "What's the matter?"
Ye Rou raised her head from Jiang Chen's arms. Her fox eyes were extremely beautiful. They did not contain the complex desires that Jiang Chen disliked. Instead, they were full of clarity and tenderness, like the warm spring sun, warm and bright.
"Don't kill him when you catch him. Let the police handle it, okay?"
Jiang Chen loosened his grip on Ye Rou's hand. He had an inexplicable expression and his emotions were unrecognizable.
Ye Rou grabbed his hand and shook it gently: "Okay?"
Her eyes were still clear and clean, as if they could not tolerate any dirt.
Jiang Chen pushed Ye Rou's hand away and got off the kang. Ye Rou sat up puzzled.
He stood in the dim light, his eyebrows slightly raised, his hair scattered on his forehead, his expression cold and unfocused: "Go to bed early."
Seeing that he was about to leave, Ye Rou hurriedly pulled him back: "Don't go."
She didn't stand firmly, and Jiang Chen's force pulled her body, causing her body to tilt and she was about to fall off the kang.
Ye Rou's exclamation came to an abrupt end.
Because Jiang Chen turned around and caught her.
Ye Rou wrapped her thighs around Jiang Chen's waist and said in a domineering tone, "You haven't promised me yet, you are not allowed to leave."
Her body was too soft and delicate. If Jiang Chen used a little more force, he could break it.
But this fragile paper kite was completely defenseless and kept burrowing into his arms without knowing the consequences.
Her voice was as sweet and soft as her person: "Jiang Chen, promise me, okay? Don't you want a gift?"
In front of him was a delicate beauty, and deep in his memory was the resentment he felt after spending five years in an underground mine without seeing the sun.
"Little monster, you shouldn't meddle in other people's business."
His voice was extremely cold.
There seemed to be a cracking sound above Ye Rou's head. She looked up and saw the loose mask on Jiang Chen's face shattered, revealing the gloom, violence and bloodiness inside.
