“Do you want the truth or do you want me to lie?”
Huo Siqian unwrapped a lollipop and passed it to Huo Mian .
He then unwrapped another one and put it in his own mouth, mischievous like a young child .
“Duh, of course the truth . ”
“The truth… is… I haven’t thought about it . We should focus on escaping first . ” Huo Siqian laughed .
“What kind of talk is that? After we finish our meal, we’ll keep driving . We’ll reach the city in less than 6 hours, right?”
Su Yu thought that, so far, their escape had been quite successful . They were in the last stage . Once they got out of there, everything will be over .
Huo Siqian, however, didn’t see it that way .
“Yeah, let’s decide when we get out of here . ” Huo Siqian reiterated .
Huo Mian grew even more anxious…
She took the lollipop and put it in her mouth, hoping its sweetness would calm her heart .
At the same time, she worried about Qin Chu and Lu Yan . Leila wouldn’t let them get away this easily, right?
After all, it was such a big set up . Zhao Qingya was dead… and before her, Mr . Y was killed too .
Once Leila returned to their dead bodies, wouldn’t she become even more enraged?
“Mian, what are you thinking about?”
Su Yu seemed pretty relaxed . He looked down at the worried Huo Mian .
“Nothing, I’m probably just a little hungry . ”
“Then let’s go check on the noodles?”
Su Yu stood up and walked toward the stiff store clerk .
“Are the noodles ready?” Su Yu asked .
“It… should… be ready…”
Ever since Huo Siqian pointed a gun to his head, the store clerk had been shivering, even his voice was trembling .
Su Yu picked out the braised pork flavored ramen and placed it in front of Huo Mian .
“You’re pregnant . Don’t eat anything too spicy . Try it . ”
“Okay . ”
Afterward, Su Yu also brought out his and Huo Siqian’s ramen . The trio sat down around the table .
Taking in the scent of the ramen, they actually felt a sense of happiness . Sure enough, everything tastes delicious when you’re hungry .
They were all important figures who’d gone through everything there was to go through, spending money like it was water .
How funny was it to have people that were used to delicacies huddled up around a small table, excited about a bowl of ramen?
Before they began to eat, Huo Mian took out her testing cutlery and tested every bowl for poison .
Rest assured, everyone began to eat…
It was very quiet during their meal . Nothing happened .
That made Huo Mian even more anxious .
She observed her surroundings as he ate but nothing looked suspicious .
It was exactly this reason, however, that made it all the more bizarre . They were in the middle of the woods and not even the sound of a bird could be heard . The silence was frightening .
She felt like she was in the movie , when the female protagonist entered the small town . It was as unsettling as that .
She chose to hide her worries, however, because she didn’t want to ruin Su Yu and Huo Siqian’s mood .
After their meal, Su Yu rubbed his round belly, satisfied .
A bowl of ramen brought him more satisfaction than any fine cuisine he’d had before .
“We should grab some for the road . What if we get hungry?” Su Yu
“We can’t boil water in the car . Just get some instant foods . Grab some water,” Huo Siqian replied .
With that, Huo Siqian and Su Yu each grabbed a shopping bag and filled them with food from the store .
After the trio left the store, Huo Mian suddenly heard a weak sound…
Her heart stopped .
“Wait!” she yelled, startling both Huo Siqian and Su Yu .
“What?” Huo Mian’s odd outburst confused the wits out of Su Yu .
