"But I don't want to put the clothes out; just one look from him would make me feel utterly disgusted." Luring the snake out of its hole is an option, but figuring out what to use to do so is a real dilemma.
Ye Zhiyu knew exactly what she was thinking. "Just make one out of old, worn-out clothes."
Without further ado, the tattered clothes I had worn while working in the fields came in handy.
Once it's cut, it's just a matter of sewing a few stitches. To make it look more realistic, it gets wet and is still hung in the same spot.
Wang Qing tugged at Liu Shengnan's sleeve, "Do you think he might stand outside the window every time we talk or sleep?" It was truly terrifying to think about.
The more I thought about it, the more frightened I became, and in the end, I even started to cry.
Liu Shengnan was also scared, but mainly disgusted.
He patted Wang Qing's hand and said, "Go to Sister Wu's room tonight. I'll keep watch here."
“No way.” Wang Qing refused immediately. “How can I leave you here alone? I want to stay with you.”
Liu Shengnan: "Aren't you scared? Besides, we're prepared, so don't worry about me."
"That won't do either. I'll stay with you, give you courage, cheer you on, and hand you a stick."
Wang Qing just went to the kitchen and brought back a fire poker. Don't underestimate it; a stick that can be used as a fire poker must be sturdy. She also brought a few stones. Judging from the look of it, she's going to crack that person's head open.
He pinched her little cheek: "Wang Qing, you're so cute."
Wang Qing blushed, "I don't care, I'm going to stay with you."
That's a man, and although they know they'll be keeping an eye on him, it's better to be safe than sorry, and having more people means more protection.
In the dead of night, all was quiet.
All five of them strained their ears to listen for any sounds. Ye Zhiyu placed a blade of grass under the wall to observe for her.
The lights in the room were all turned off.
Just as Ye Zhiyu was concentrating, there was a knock on her door. The knock was very soft, just like the one when Lu Chen came back last time.
Ye Zhiyu bit her hand, thinking, "This is terrible, young master! Why did it have to be today? I hope you don't get beaten to death later."
I tiptoed out of bed, quickly opened the door, and pulled the person inside.
As soon as I closed the door and turned around, before I could say a word, someone pulled me into their arms in the darkness, sealed my mouth, and pressed down on the back of my head, preventing me from breaking free.
“Ah… Ah Chen…” Something slipped into her mouth as she opened it.
"Um..."
She gripped his shirt tightly, her breath stolen, as if he wanted to devour her whole.
Ye Zhiyu was too nervous and was trying to multitask. Last time everyone was asleep, but this time it was different; it was a bit exciting.
Lu Chen bit her, punishing her for being distracted.
Ye Zhiyu winced in pain and was about to retaliate when Lu Chen picked her up and placed her on the bed. Despite the series of actions, the two remained inseparable.
Lu Chen's hand naturally reached out, and Ye Zhiyu subconsciously tried to stop him, but he interlocked his fingers with hers on both sides.
Breathing finally became smooth, but the burning sensation slowly descended.
"Ah, Ah Chen, wait..."
Lu Chen picked her up again, suddenly lifting her into the air, which startled her so much that she grabbed his back with both hands and wrapped her legs around his waist.
As if he were throwing himself into her arms, Lu Chen freed his hands and roamed freely over her body, slipping them inside her clothes to caress her skin.
"Ah Chen, don't do this, not today..."
She refused repeatedly, and Lu Chen could only leave reluctantly.
Only the awakened thing stood upright, and Ye Zhiyu could clearly feel it in her lower abdomen.
Feeling a little guilty, after thinking it over again and again, I whispered in his ear, "I really had something to do today. I'll make it up to you another day, okay?"
"Okay." Lu Chen's voice was hoarse from excessive restraint.
He held her tightly to calm her down.
Ye Zhiyu stroked the back of his neck to soothe him: "There's a pervert who's been stealing our little clothes lately. We're going to catch him today."
Lu Chen immediately became anxious: "Are you alright?"
It was too dark inside; I couldn't see anything and had to grope my way around.
Ye Zhiyu quickly grabbed his hand, not wanting the anger that had finally subsided to reignite.
"I'm fine. He just keeps stealing clothes, which is disgusting. I only found out today."
The reason for not mentioning Liu Shengnan is to protect her privacy. No girl wants others to know that her private things once fell into the hands of a pervert.
"Then I'll go out and keep watch for you."
Ye Zhiyu: "No need. Sister Wu and the others are still awake. If we can catch him today, that would be perfect. I'm just afraid that we won't have time to shut him up. If he shouts, our reputation will be ruined. The best way is to find out who he is first before we take drastic measures."
Lu Chen nodded in agreement, "Alright, after today you don't need to worry about this anymore. I'll call Lu Hongwei back."
"That won't do, we're still waiting to vent our anger."
Lu Chen smiled and said, "Alright, I'll make my move after you've vented your anger."
He took off his coat and lay down on the bed with Ye Zhiyu in his arms.
Ye Zhiyu: "You go to sleep, I'll just listen. There's still Xiaocao."
Lu Chen smiled as he recalled the way that little blade of grass had peeked out from behind the bush last time.
"It's nothing, I just missed you."
Ye Zhiyu: "I had my dad use all the money you gave me to buy a house."
After all, it was someone else's money, and Ye Zhiyu felt a little guilty for acting first and informing them later.
Lu Chen didn't care at all: "What's yours is yours. I can earn more if I lose it. You don't need to tell me what you want to do."
"Are you really not afraid I'll squander it all on you?" Ye Zhiyu rubbed his chin. Hmm, his beard has grown long again.
"Don't be afraid, marrying me will bring you happiness, not suffering."
Lu Chen thought about the changes his future father-in-law had mentioned before, and wondered if the house might be an opportunity? Otherwise, Zhiyu wouldn't have made this decision.
"I'll be going to Shanghai soon. Is there anything you'd like to see?"
Ye Zhiyu's eyes lit up. Just when I was feeling sleepy, I had a pillow. "Houses, if I have the chance to go to Guangdong Province, I'll buy houses in a place called Bao'an County. The more the merrier."
"good."
——
Ye Zhiyu's concerns were valid; Wu Wenwen and the others did indeed hear some noise.
But soon after they kissed, the sound disappeared.
At one point, they thought they were hallucinating.
"Are they coming or not? It's the middle of the night." Wang Qing asked softly.
Shh~ It's coming.
The sound of footsteps on snow could be heard outside. They walked one step and then stopped, quite cautiously, knowing to observe the movements of the people inside.
Liu Shengnan got out of bed, and Wang Qing followed behind her, holding a stick in her hand.
The firelight reflected off the window, flickering as if testing whether the person inside would wake up.
After waiting for a long time without any movement, they finally took action.
Those in the other rooms also heard it and held their breath.
Ye Zhiyu and Lu Chen also quietly got up. Lu Chen pointed to the door, while Ye Zhiyu shook her head.
The grass under the wall quietly raised its head, and Ye Zhiyu saw it. She knew that person very well, and even had a grudge against him, after all, she had caused him to be bedridden for several months.
