Chapter 154 I am distracted by you
It was dark in the confinement cell, but when the two of them cuddled together, it didn't matter where they were.
Time passed little by little, and under the cover of darkness, Jiang Runan also became drowsy.
But just as he was about to fall asleep, he heard the sound of children crying from deep in the corridor.
"Wow, I'm so hungry. I really know I'm wrong. Please, Dean, let me out!"
"Dean, I know I was wrong, and I won't talk back again. Can you give me something to eat?"
The children's voices were very small, but there were too many of them, and they merged into a harsh and sad sound that reached Jiang Runan's ears.
Such noise has a great impact on the human brain. Jiang Linan finally understood why Xu Yangyang was still physically and mentally exhausted even though she had been sleeping here all the time.
Hearing such noises every day and worrying about the safety of her children, it would be strange if she wasn't weak!
"Crack!"
The sound of the mechanism being pressed was heard again, the secret door was opened, footsteps came from far away, accompanied by cursing.
"You rubbish, stop crying! You're annoying me!" The aunties who had been cooking came down from upstairs and stood in the corridor, shouting with all their might, "If you keep crying, you'll stay locked up here and you'll never be able to leave!"
After hearing what their aunt said, the children's voices became much quieter, but they could still hear sobbing.
"Really? I thought the couple would come over to take one of the little bastards away, but it turns out they were just investigating. What a waste of our feelings!"
"What I'm saying is that I wasted so much money cooking for them. I should have used it to eat good food instead of just pretending to get up and cook every morning."
As the two men were talking, they seemed to be dragging something heavy as they walked inside.
Jiang Runan gently put down the sleeping Xu Yangyang, stood at the iron window and looked outside. Out of the corner of his eye he saw a huge iron barrel being carried away by the aunts.
Could it be that what is in here is food for the children?
As if to confirm Jiang Runan's guess, he immediately smelled an unpleasant odor, like the smell of something rotten.
"This can't be slop!" Jiang Lunnan frowned. If that was really the case, it was no wonder that Chenchen ate so voraciously when he first arrived at their house for dinner.
I have never eaten good food, so when I see real food, of course I will stuff it into my mouth as much as I can because I don’t know when the next meal will be.
The aunts walked away, but the sound of their voices still disturbed Xu Yangyang.
Rubbing her eyes and sitting up, she whispered, "It's time for Auntie to feed me."
"Is that really food?" Jiang Linan asked back. Xu Yangyang has been here for a long time, so she might know more.
"Of course not," Xu Yangyang said with a wry smile, "Those are actually swill that the dean bought from other restaurants, and one purchase will feed the children for many days. Before we came here, they ate this most of the time."
No wonder the children were so happy when they saw that they were going to stay. Children can’t hide their feelings on their faces. After all, they can eat delicious food, so how can they not be happy?
“These scumbags!”
Jiang Lunan was so angry that he punched the wall, but was stopped by Xu Yangyang: "Okay, don't be so angry."
"You are calmer than before." Jiang Runan looked at Xu Yangyang's face. She was still sleepy and obviously did not get enough rest.
"Otherwise, there's no other way. We can only be patient until the children are rescued." Xu Yangyang said, looking outside: "When the aunts come back after delivering the food, we can call them and tell them that we agree with the dean's request."
That being said, how the aunt passes it on is their business.
This wait lasted more than an hour.
With the "meal" to eat, the children's crying became much quieter, and when the sound reached their ears through the long corridor, it was almost inaudible.
The sound of Auntie dragging the bucket could be heard. Xu Yangyang stood at the door and spoke at the right moment: "Now that you're back, go tell the dean that I agree with his request."
"Oh, you're still alive!" Auntie stood at the door and looked at Xu Yangyang's eyes. She was already beautiful, but she looked even more frail after not eating. Her little face appeared pale in the darkness, just like the gorgeous and charming girl in "Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio" who made the scholar unable to read. Auntie was startled.
"This face is so ugly, stay away from me!" The aunt waved her hand with a rice spoon in her hand. A foul smell came over and Xu Yangyang had to take a few steps back.
"Just tell the dean what I said. What he decides to do is his business." Xu Yangyang paused, giving her aunt time to think. "Besides, he's your backbone, isn't he? Is it really okay for him to remain paralyzed like this?"
Auntie knew that Xu Yangyang was right. After the director became paralyzed, his temper became worse and worse. He couldn't vent his anger by beating the children, so he could only vent all his anger on them.
The previous pressure is still there, and they dare not resist. So they come here to vent their anger on the children, right?
"I will tell you, but whether he agrees or not is his business."
The aunt didn't want to stay in such a cold and gloomy place like the solitary confinement room for too long, so she dragged the iron bucket upstairs.
After Auntie closed the secret door, Xu Yangyang turned to Jiang Lunnan and said, "When the dean comes here later, you must pretend to be unconscious, otherwise he will be on high alert."
Jiang Lunnan disagreed: "If I really were unconscious, it would be hard to guarantee that he wouldn't overthink it."
He has been captured here for some time, how could he be unconscious all the time?
"Do as I say. With me here, his attention may not be on you." Xu Yangyang said this with great confidence, but in fact she was planning to use herself as bait again. How could Jiang Linan agree?
"No, I won't do as you say..." Jiang Runan widened his eyes, hugged Xu Yangyang's waist in the dark, and deepened the sudden kiss.
"I always listened to you before, can you please listen to me this time?" Xu Yangyang begged, "If you weren't here, I definitely wouldn't take this risk."
To some extent, the dean really grasped Xu Yangyang's weakness.
From the moment she took the initiative to provoke Jiang Runan, she was destined to be obsessed with Jiang Runan for the rest of her life.
Jiang Linan was silent for a moment and then compromised. He lay on the bed pretending to be unconscious, but in fact he was watching Xu Yangyang pacing at the door waiting for the dean to come.
Even in the darkness, she still shines so brightly.
Less than half an hour after my aunt went back, the secret door was opened again, followed by the sound of hurried footsteps.
Two men carried a stretcher to the door. The director's voice came from below: "You can tolerate not being given food, but you can't tolerate being arrested for that man. You really do love him!"
