On one side, Qin Chu was still in the landmine zone after twelve hours .
The zone Qin Chu was in was filled with a ton of landmines .
It had way more landmines than Lu Yan’s route, and he would get blown to pieces if he wasn’t careful .
So, the route was extremely difficult to travel .
Qin Chu kept on thinking about Mian waiting for him to return safely…
Under the stress of missing his wife, Qin Chu walked every step with care .
On the other side, Huo Mian, Huo Siqian, and Su Yu drove to the nearest town .
It was a village with a dozen houses that looked like they would collapse if they were hit with a gust of wind .
“Finally, people . Let’s go eat something,” Su Yu said .
“I think we should hurry through the night and hide in a town . This village is too small, it puts a large target on us . ”
“But it’s getting dark . The roads are tough, and Mian has to eat . For her baby,” Su Yu said in a pissed tone . He still didn’t like Huo Siqian .
Even though he saved their lives, Su Yu still despised him .
“Mian, what do you think?”
It was evident that Huo Siqian was deathly afraid of Leila catching up .
He didn’t care about his own death, but if Huo Mian fell back into Leila’s hands, then…
“I’m a little tired too, the baby has been moving quite often . Let’s rest . ”
Huo Mian took Su Yu’s side, and Huo Siqian smiled without getting mad .
“Okay, we’ll listen to you . Let’s go find something to eat . ”
After Su Yu parked, the three left the car .
“Huo Siqian, about that woman…”
“Shh…”
Huo Siqian motioned Huo Mian to not bring up Leila, seemingly for no reason .
However, sensing that Huo Siqian had his reasons, Huo Mian stopped pursuing the question .
Su Yu looked at the two acting mysteriously .
“What are you talking about? What woman?”
“Nothing . Su Yu, go knock on some doors and buy food . ”
“Why don’t you go?” Su Yu didn’t sit well with the decision .
“I have no money . ”
“I don’t have money either . ” Su Yu rolled his eyes .
“But you have a watch . ”
Huo Siqian pointed at the diamond studded Patek Phillippe on Su Yu’s wrist and smiled mischievously .
“Sell mine, it’s cheaper . ”
Huo Mian didn’t want Su Yu to sell his watch, so she took off the limited edition platinum Cartier watch on her wrist .
“No, it’s fine . I have lots of watches anyways . ”
Seeing Huo Mian taking off her watch made Su Yu feel bad . He walked towards a house and knocked on the door .
After a while, a girl who looked to be fifteen or so opened the door .
“Who are you looking for?” her voice sounded timid .
“Little girl, we’re… Tourists . We got lost, we’re really hungry . Can you give us something to eat?”
The girl’s eyes looked very naive, like she had never seen any evil in the world .
“Don’t worry, we won’t just eat your food . We can exchange it for valuables,” Su Yu added .
“Grandma, a man with his friends say that they’re lost and hungry . They say they’re tourists and want to eat, is that okay?”
The girl seemed to ask an elder in the house .
The old woman said something in a dialect that Su Yu couldn’t understand .
The girl opened the door and said in a friendly tone, “My grandma said yes . You can come in . ”
Just like that, Su Yu, Huo Siqian, and Huo Mian finally found a place to rest .
However, the family lived in absolute poverty .
There was nothing in the house, and the walls were falling apart . It was apparent that the girl and the old woman didn’t live a good life .
“Little girl, is there something to eat?” Su Yu asked, thinking that Huo Mian must be starving .
“Is corn paste okay? That’s all we have . ” The child’s eyes remained pure, making Su Yu feel pity for her .
