Chapter 99 I shouldn't have stayed here.
"Eat slowly, there's still some left in the pot."
As Wu Ma watched Su Jin wolf down her food, she felt increasingly uneasy.
Although she didn't complain once from beginning to end, Wu Ma could still imagine how difficult the past few years had been for her.
"Aunt Wu's cooking is so delicious!" Su Jin praised while gnawing on a bone.
Afraid that she would choke, Aunt Wu quickly served her another bowl of chicken soup.
Su Jin thoroughly enjoyed the meal.
After dinner, she intended to help clean up, but was pushed back to her room by Aunt Wu.
You need to get some rest!
Su Jin couldn't refuse, so she had no choice but to agree.
After Aunt Wu left, the room instantly fell silent.
Su Jin went to the window. Her room was on the second floor, and she could see what was happening outside from there.
There were guards standing at the gate, and she figured they definitely wouldn't let her out today.
With nothing to do and a rare moment of leisure, I decided to listen to Aunt Wu and go to bed for a good night's sleep.
The soft bed and fluffy quilt seemed to still retain the warmth of the sun; there was truly nothing more blissful than a comfortable night's sleep.
Knock knock knock.
"Xiao Jin, are you awake?"
Su Jin finally woke up from her sleep when Wu Ma's voice came from outside the door.
It was completely dark outside, and this was the first time in so many years that she had slept so soundly.
"woke up."
Even their voices were languid.
The door opened, and Aunt Wu walked in from outside.
"Are you hungry? Dinner is ready. If you don't want to get up, I'll bring it in for you."
Now, Aunt Wu really treats her like a child.
Su Jin got out of her warm bed. "What time is it? Has Commander Xiao returned?"
Aunt Wu replied, "It's past eight o'clock. Brigade Commander Xiao called and said he'll be back a little late, so we don't need to wait for him for dinner."
Su Jin perked up immediately when she heard that Xiao Yunfeng had not returned yet.
"I'm going downstairs to eat."
There were three dishes and a soup on the table, all of which were her favorites.
Wu Ma has been taking care of her since she was a child, and she knows her food preferences very well.
“When I used to go to the countryside, everyone in the village would be asleep by this time. If anyone hadn’t eaten, they would definitely go hungry all night.”
Su Jin ate while sighing.
Remembering the bitter past makes us appreciate the sweet present.
"Miss... Xiao Jin, you've gone to the countryside?"
Su Jin hadn't mentioned it before, and Wu Ma hadn't asked much, but now she was extremely surprised.
"No wonder Brigade Commander Xiao couldn't find you anywhere; he was so worried. It turns out you went to the countryside."
Su Jin's heart skipped a beat. She had heard Guan An and the others mention before that Xiao Yunfeng had been looking for her ever since she left. However, she felt that it was because Xiao Yunfeng was mindful of his past relationship with her father.
Unexpectedly, Aunt Wu also said the same thing.
"Commander Xiao is a good man who has taken care of me for so many years. But I am now an adult and should not continue to be a burden to him."
This was her honest opinion. She and Xiao Yunfeng were not related, but he had raised her for five years, and she couldn't be so heartless as to take it for granted.
Aunt Wu asked excitedly, "You still remember these?"
Su Jin denied it, "I don't remember. But I saw Guan An and the others a few days ago, and they told me some things."
Wu Ma was extremely disappointed.
Su Jin continued, "Precisely because I have amnesia, I feel even more that I shouldn't stay here."
