Chapter 279: He Yufeng Is Here

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

He Yufeng had already prepared the food. When Su Li and the rest returned, he could heat it up and eat it. However, after waiting for a long time, he still did not see Su Li and the rest. He started to feel a little anxious!

Could something have happened?

He Yufeng couldn’t help but start to think negatively. Perhaps Su Li had sold the two children?

He Yufeng couldn’t help but have all kinds of thoughts. After all, Su Li used to have a criminal record. Previously, when he wasn’t at home, she had wanted to sell the two children many times. After all, she had always thought of them as a humiliation to her!

“Impossible, she’s not that kind of person!” Another voice sounded in his heart.

He Yufeng recalled Su Li’s recent behavior and her love for the children. The gentleness in her eyes did not seem to be fake. After all, a person’s gaze could not deceive others!

He Yufeng suddenly stood up.

With a bang, the stool fell to the ground because its owner suddenly stood up. A tall figure walked towards the door.

He Yufeng hurriedly walked towards Old Zhao’s house at the entrance of the village.

Old Zhao was eating when the door of his house was pushed open, scaring him.

When he saw who it was, he patted his chest in fear.

“You scared me to death. Why didn’t you knock when you came in?”

He thought that someone was looking for trouble with him. He was almost scared out of his wits!

He Yufeng glanced at him. “Let me borrow your ox cart.”

Old Zhao rolled his eyes when he heard He Yufeng’s voice. Without thinking, he said, “No!”

The road had not been peaceful recently. If he borrowed his ox cart at night, what if his ox was robbed by bandits?

He Yufeng glanced at him coldly. “What did you say?”

Old Zhao felt a cold wind blow at his back and could not help but shiver. He saw He Yufeng’s ashen face and remembered that He Yufeng had never been someone to be trifled with. What if he beat him up?

He was old and couldn’t take it anymore.

After some thought, Old Zhao explained, “It’s not that I don’t want to lend it to you. You know that the road hasn’t been peaceful recently. I’m relying on this ox cart for my retirement!”

He was telling the truth. The road had indeed not been peaceful recently!

He Yufeng said in a deep voice, “Don’t worry. If the ox cart is gone, I’ll compensate you!”

Old Zhao was speechless.

In the end, He Yufeng still managed to borrow Old Zhao’s ox cart. Old Zhao looked at He Yufeng’s departing figure and sighed, mumbling non-stop.

Seeing him like this, Old Zhao’s wife couldn’t help but say, “You’ve already lent it out. What’s the use of sighing now?”

“I was forced into a corner, wasn’t I? If it weren’t for the fact that I couldn’t beat him, I would have pressed him to the ground and beaten him up!”

“Alright, alright. Don’t talk nonsense here. Clean up the house. The children will be back tomorrow!”

On the other side…

Su Li lovingly patted the two little fellows’ heads, her eyes filled with heartache.

He Qingmu and He Qingyao lay on her lap. Their cute appearances really melted Su Li.

“Mother…” He Qingmu looked up at her.

“What’s wrong?” Su Li looked at him gently.

He Qingmu pointed at the courtyard outside and said, “It’s almost dark outside. If we don’t go back now, will Father be worried about us?”

He Qingyao also looked at Su Li worriedly.

Su Li was speechless.

Oh no, how could she have forgotten about this!!

Too many things had happened today, so much so that she had forgotten that He Yufeng was alone at home. She had originally planned to take the two little fellows for a walk after she was done with her matters, buy some food and clothes, and then go back. God’s plan really didn’t work out!

Su Li coughed lightly and said, “I’ll get someone to go back and tell him later. We’ll stay in town for the night!”

Su Ze and the two little guys were scared out of their wits today. There was no need to rush back. It was better to stay here for the night and make other plans tomorrow.

He Qingmu and He Qingyao heaved a sigh of relief when they heard Su Li’s words. They were afraid that their father would be worried about them. At the same time, they were a little afraid and excited. This was the first time they had gone out with Su Li in their lives. Although the process was thrilling, they knew that Su Li loved them!

“Mother, you must remember to get someone to tell Father. Otherwise, he will be worried!”

“Alright, I understand!”

Su Li smiled and patted their heads, feeling a sense of comfort in her heart.

These two little fellows were kind and filial. Moreover, they were very smart. She had only taught them a few times before they learned many things. If she nurtured them well, they would definitely be promising when they grew up.

“Mother, I want to sleep with you tonight!” He Qingyao said.

Not to be outdone, He Qingmu nodded. “I want to sleep with you too!”

“Okay!”

Su Li agreed to their requests one by one.

Moreover, it was quite comfortable to hug these two chubby little people to sleep.

He Yufeng rushed all the way to town.

It was not easy for him to find out where Su Li and the others were staying. Before he could get close, he was discovered by a big yellow dog, who was guarding the door!

“Woof, woof, woof..

Big Yellow saw that the person had bared his teeth and made a terrifying sound.

He Yufeng glanced at it and was about to knock on the door.

When the dog saw that the person was not afraid of it, it barked even harder, but it did not dare to bite him because it felt that the person in front of it did not look easy to provoke!

Su Li couldn’t help but blink when she saw the person in front of her.

“Why are you here?” Su Li asked.

“I came because I was worried about you guys!” He Yufeng said.

The moment he saw Su Li, he couldn’t help but relax.

He already understood what had happened today. While his heart ached for the mother and son, he wished he could cut the culprit into pieces!

Su Li saw through his thoughts and said, “I’ve already punished those people. They won’t have a good ending. As for the mastermind, someone will deal with him.”

He Yufeng nodded and acknowledged her words.

“Sleep early!” Su Li said.

“Alright!” He Yufeng’s words were still like gold.

Actually, he had a lot of things to say, but when he faced Su Li, he couldn’t say a word.

He actually wanted to ask her if she was injured, but at that moment, it was as if his throat had been choked by a fishbone.

Because Su Ze’s injuries were a little serious, their family stayed in town for a few days before returning.

As soon as they returned to the village, all kinds of discussions rushed over. Some people said that Su Li had secretly run away with the children. He Yufeng chased after her for three days and three nights before he caught up to her.

There were also people who said that Su Li had sold the children and was finally found by He Yufeng. She was even beaten up by He Yufeng and knelt on the ground to admit her mistake. He Yufeng was soft-hearted and spared her life!

Su Ze was so angry that his heart ached when he heard the rumors outside..
