Chapter 73 Tryst
Chapter 73 Tryst
Qin Huiyin wandered around the outskirts of the mountain, finding some harvest, but not much. After all, the outskirts of the mountain were where the villagers lived, and almost everything edible had been picked. Those they didn't recognize were either pulled up as weeds or trampled on, completely destroying them.
She stood at the entrance to the deep mountains, hesitant, thinking back to her experience following Song Ruize into the mountains. The mountains were indeed much more dangerous than the outside world. Not to mention the large wild animals, even poisonous insects and snakes could scare the timid. She wasn't afraid of them, but if she encountered a large beast, her small body wouldn't be enough for it to swallow her whole.
The image of being swallowed by a black bear suddenly flashed through her mind, and she quickly dismissed the thought. If Song Ruize were here, she could still take the risk. Without him, no one dared to go into the deep mountains, and it was indeed too risky for her to go alone.
Qin Huiyin did not rush down the mountain, but continued to look for resources in the mountains. She climbed up the tree and carefully took the eggs from the bird's nest.
I had just put the bird eggs into the basket and was about to slowly climb down the tree when I saw a man and a woman walking towards me.
The man was unfamiliar and she had never seen him before, but she saw the woman often. However, every time she saw her, he would just raise his head, hum, and walk past her.
"Xiu'er, did you miss me?" The man hugged her and kissed her eagerly.
Qin Huiyin: "..."
I didn't even dare to get down from the tree.
Tang Mingxiu was the daughter of Wang and Tang Jiang next door. After the last fight with Wang, the neighbor didn't dare to hit her again, but she deliberately raised her voice and made indirect accusations every time she cursed. Li Taohua would also retaliate with indirect accusations after hearing what she said, anyway, she would never suffer a loss with words.
Tang Mingxiu is only fifteen years old and has not yet gotten married. Who is this man?
"Be gentle..." Tang Mingxiu pushed shyly, wanting to refuse but also to welcome.
"I've been missing you for the past half month. Let me take a good look at you."
As he said that, the man actually started to take off Tang Mingxiu's clothes.
Qin Huiyin frowned, wondering if this man and woman would actually fight in such a place?
Although she was already in her twenties in her previous life, she had never had a boyfriend. Furthermore, the man was at best delicate and pretty, petite in both height and build, and there was really nothing to look at.
Qin Huiyin heard a hissing sound, turned around and saw a small red snake crawling towards her on the tree.
She looked at the little snake thoughtfully.
Seeing the little snake getting closer and closer, she didn't panic. When the little snake crawled in front of her, she grabbed her vital point and threw it away neatly.
"Ah, what is this?" Tang Mingxiu was being kissed by a man against a tree trunk. Her clothes were torn open, revealing her fair skin.
Suddenly, an unidentified object fell from the sky and slid across her skin, frightening her so much that she turned pale.
The man was in high spirits and angry, but her scream ruined his mood. Worried that she would attract other people, he quickly covered her mouth.
"Keep your voice down. Do you want others to see us like this?"
Tang Mingxiu pointed at the man's shoulder and said with a pale face: "Snake...snake...there is a snake on the shoulder..."
The man froze.
He had heard the hissing sound, and most importantly, the cold feeling of the snake crawling across his neck made his hair stand on end.
"Quick...quickly...get it open for me..."
"I'm afraid."
"Hurry up, pick it up with something..."
Qin Weiyin sat on the treetop and watched the show.
Tang Mingxiu didn't dare to do it, and the man didn't dare to move. Tang Mingxiu could only cry, and the man became impatient and scolded her for being useless.
The two were affectionate just a moment ago, but now they are blaming each other, tearing off their disguises and revealing their ugly true faces.
Finally, the snake couldn't stand it anymore and left the man.
The man sat down on the ground, wiping the cold sweat from his forehead.
"Brother Chunsheng..." Tang Mingxiu cautiously tugged at the corner of his clothes. "Where's the rouge you promised to buy me?"
The man pushed her hand away and said impatiently, "I didn't bring it with me today."
"You promised to buy me rouge last time, how can you break your promise? You kissed me and looked at me, and now you regret it, I'm going to tell my mother..."
"Then go ahead and tell me! I want to see what you have to say. Who saw it? Do you have any evidence? Then you'll be the only one who will be in tatters."
"You...Brother Chunsheng, how could you do this to me?"
"Okay, stop crying. It's not a good day to go out today. Let's meet somewhere else next time. Don't come to this kind of ghost place. It's a spoiler."
The man strode away as if a ghost was chasing him, not wanting to stay here for even a moment. He didn't care about Tang Mingxiu who was still in the mountains.
Tang Mingxiu cursed the man for not caring about her life or death, saying that he didn't keep his word, and even said that he would not give her rouge or let her kiss him next time.
Qin Huiyin: "..."
After Tang Mingxiu left, Qin Huiyin finally came down from the tree.
She just saw something that was eye-catching, so she had to go back and wash her eyes.
Qin Huiyin was carrying a basket on her back as she walked down the mountain when she bumped into Tang Mingxiu who was running back in a hurry.
When Tang Mingxiu saw Qin Huiyin, his face turned pale and he glared at her fiercely: "Why are you here?"
Qin Huiyin knew what Tang Mingxiu was nervous about, but she didn't point it out. Instead, she looked at her with a strange look: "Is this mountain yours?"
"you……"
"You speak so confidently, I thought your family bought this mountain and didn't allow anyone else to go up there."
Qin Huiyin was about to leave when Tang Mingxiu blocked her path. She said stiffly, "Where were you just now?"
"I'm picking mushrooms." Qin Huiyin tilted the backpack. "You're not going to say that the mushrooms I picked are yours and won't let me take them away, are you?"
"Who told you this?" Seeing her like this, Tang Mingxiu felt relieved.
She looked at Qin Huiyin carefully and saw that she looked normal, nothing special. She must have really no idea about her and that man.
Tang Mingxiu ran back because she found that her earrings were missing. Those earrings were made of silver and were very valuable.
She rushed back to where she was just now, and after searching through the bushes, she finally found the lost earrings.
"Great, it's not lost."
She had just put on her earrings when her eyes were drawn to a pair of footprints under the tree opposite. Her heart was in turmoil, her legs gave way, and she sat down on the ground.
"She lied to me." Tang Mingxiu exclaimed, "No, we can't let her go down the mountain and talk nonsense."
Tang Mingxiu got up and ran down the mountain at an extremely fast speed.
She ran very fast, and when she saw Qin Huiyin, she had not yet returned home, but was squatting by the river washing her face.
Tang Mingxiu looked at Qin Huiyin's figure.
Qin Huiyin is still young, but her facial features, skin, and even her speech and behavior are very different from those of the girls in this village.
At this moment, she was squatting there washing her face, her movements as graceful as a lady in a painting.
A beast grew in Tang Mingxiu's heart, and the beast told her: There is no one here now, if you push it down, no one will know it was you who did it.
