Chapter 262 Ah Xu's House



"Get out!" Yuan Mengge shouted at the dogs.

They looked fierce, but there was a leader in the pack, the one she had just kicked away.

Seeing the lead dog get kicked away, the other dogs became scared and hesitated to pounce, only barking.

Yuan Mengge's aura was so strong that the dogs didn't dare to rush at her directly.

Dogs have very keen intuition; they sensed Yuan Mengge's aura and knew that she was a very strong person.

Yuan Mengge pulled Cheng Yu along, slowly walking out of the group surrounded by people.

Once outside the yard and out of the dogs' territory, their aggressiveness gradually subsided.

The two walked further and further away, until they were several hundred meters away from the hut, when the pack of dogs finally stopped chasing them.

"Hurry up." Yuan Mengge pulled the thin Cheng Yu along quickly. She didn't dare let Cheng Yu run, afraid that she might faint after a few steps.

Cheng Yu followed beside her, her whole body tense, her steps unsteady but not slowing down.

The short distance from the cabin to Liuzhu Village had already left Cheng Yu breathless with exhaustion.

As they passed by the homes of some villagers, the village dogs barked twice.

However, the villagers did not notice them.

They soon arrived at the village entrance. Yuan Mengge looked around and then called out, "Brother Xu?"

Then we saw car lights come on at another intersection.

Yuan Mengge pulled Cheng Yu over: "Let's go."

Ah Xu drove the car out and, noticing the child beside her, asked in confusion, "Who is this?"

Yuan Mengge said to him, "Don't ask any questions yet, let's go quickly."

While speaking, he quickly helped Cheng Yu into the car and sat down before getting in himself.

Ah Xu was completely confused, but when he heard Yuan Mengge telling him to hurry up, he had no choice but to start the car and drive away.

On the way out, I asked them curiously, "What's going on? What are you doing? Who is she? Is she your sister? Where are you going next? Are you going to my house?"

Yuan Mengge asked, "Do you live in town?"

Ah Xu said, "No, my home is in the countryside."

Yuan Mengge thought for a moment and said, "Sure, but do you have any sisters? Could you borrow some of their clothes?"

Ah Xu replied, "Yes, I have two younger sisters. I can lend them to you. But who are they? Your sisters?"

Yuan Mengge said, "She is my friend's sister. She was arrested and locked up here. I'm here to rescue her."

"What? You were kidnapped?" Upon hearing this, Ah Xu suddenly stopped the car and turned around in surprise to look at the two people behind him.

Upon closer inspection, Cheng Yu was found to be filthy, with disheveled hair that looked like straw, and her clothes were old and loose, as if she had picked out an adult's clothes to wear.

Looking at it this way, it really does look like he's been locked up.

"Shouldn't we be at the police station now? This is something the police should handle! Why are you coming to my house?" Ah Xu said, frowning.

Yuan Mengge shook her head and said, "Let's not go to the police station for now. I just need to take her to her family."

After all, Cheng Yu's brother works in that line of work, so dealing with the police isn't convenient for him.

Her task was simply to get the person to safety and then tell her brother.

Hearing her say that, Ah Xu sighed and said, "Alright, but when was this child brought here? How did he end up locked up like this?"

Yuan Mengge did not answer truthfully, but said, "It's been a long time. They're all bad people. They don't give us food or clothes, so that's how it is."

Then he added, "Brother Xu, don't tell anyone about this, or you'll be in trouble too."

These were her words of advice to him, since she was the one who went to rescue him. The other party only knew that a girl had gone to rescue him, so they wouldn't suspect the man.

If he were to tell everyone about it, he would definitely be found out.

As long as he keeps quiet during this time, he'll be fine once she kicks down the beehive.

Upon hearing her words, Ah Xu immediately understood: "Alright, alright, I get it. I didn't expect you to go to Liuzhu Village for this kind of thing, it's really troublesome... Why didn't you say you were going to do this kind of thing earlier?"

Yuan Mengge said, "If I had told you earlier, would you have gone?"

Ah Xu: "No..."

Who wants to get involved in this kind of trouble, especially with a complete stranger?

After leaving the village, Ah Xu drove straight through the town, then turned around and drove in another direction.

While in town, Yuan Mengge subtly shielded Cheng Yu from view.

However, there are fewer people at night, and the streets are quite dark, so not many people can see it.

After arriving at Ah Xu's village, he drove the car into the yard and went into his house to find his two younger sisters.

Yuan Mengge and the other person did not go inside the house, but stood in the corner of the yard.

After Ah Xu went inside and said a few words, he and two girls peeked out.

His two younger sisters are also quite young, the older one looks about fourteen or fifteen years old, and the younger one looks about eight or nine years old.

Then a middle-aged woman came out from behind and curiously looked at Yuan Mengge and the other woman.

Cheng Yu looked at Yuan Mengge and asked, "Didn't you say you were going to see my brother?"

Yuan Mengge whispered to her, "Your brother is still in the mountains and it's inconvenient for him to come over right now. Let's stay at this house tonight, and I'll take you to a safe place tomorrow."

Cheng Yu could only trust her now, and nodded.

Ah Xu came out and said to the two of them, "Come in, I'll get my little sister's clothes for her to change into."

Cheng Yu is very thin. Although she is thirteen years old, she looks only about ten years old.

When buying clothes for children who are still growing, we always buy them a size too big, so Ah Xu's clothes are just the right size for Cheng Yu.

Yuan Mengge said to him, "Thank you. How much is this outfit? I can pay you; consider it a purchase."

Upon hearing this, Ah Xu shook his head: "No need, it's just a set of clothes, and it's even old. Why would we need money? Our family isn't that poor."

At this moment, the middle-aged woman came out, looked at the two girls, and asked, "Children, have you eaten? Are you hungry?"

Yuan Mengge had already eaten dinner. She glanced at Cheng Yu and then said to the middle-aged woman, "Auntie, I'm not hungry, but this child must be."

Then she asked Cheng Yu again, "Really? Are you hungry?"

Cheng Yu nodded.

She was locked in that small room and only received one meal a day, and the food was very little, just porridge and sweet potatoes.

Even the dogs eat better than her.

Seeing Cheng Yu like this, the middle-aged woman said, "Come, come, child, come here. I remember there are some leftovers tonight. I'll heat them up and you can eat some to tide you over."

He then waved and walked toward the kitchen.

Cheng Yu looked at Yuan Mengge, unsure of what to do.

Yuan Mengge walked over with her.
