Chapter 129: Disappointment
Chapter 129: Disappointment
There were many people in the house and the originally clean and neat room was a mess. When they arrived, a few people were rummaging through their bags, where Qin Yi used to store a few food items, which were currently in their mouths.
Qin Yi’s face immediately turned cold. She was obsessed with cleanliness and hated when other people touched her things. Her originally gentle appearance had turned more evil.
Wang Wenwen was stunned, her heart filled with joy when she saw them. After seeing their actions, however, her graceful brows knitted together, “Aunty Yang, what are all of you doing? This house belongs to other people.”
That’s right, the people in the house were Wang Wenwen’s fellow villagers. She was elated to see that they were safe, but had to speak up when she saw their actions. In her recollection, the home belonged to Qin Yi and the group. How could they touch other people’s belongings without their permission?
Wang Qin was overjoyed when she heard her daughter’s voice and immediately came forward to welcome her. Lin Bai had told her that she was unable to help back at Boss Fan’s place, so she quietly came back.
She felt grateful that her daughter had safely returned, and that Heaven did not treat her too badly. Wang Qin was emotional when she saw Wang Wenwen but before she could speak up, the lady called Aunty Yang retorted first.
“Hey, why can’t we come in? We are villagers here and all the houses are shared amongst us. It is perfectly fine to come in here.”
Aunty Yang saw Wang Wenwen’s clothes and her glare became as sharp as a thorn, “We are not ingrates to take the side of the evil-doers. Who knows whether such people will have nightmares at night?”
Hearing those words, Wang Wenwen became mad and her entire face turned red. Her clear smile became even more emotional as she said, “Aunty Yang, who are you talking about? Please speak directly and don’t beat about the bush.”
She glanced at the group of villagers behind Aunty Yang with disdain until they lowered their heads. Her heart was beating with disappointment at this moment, “Don’t forget that if not for my mom, who frequently stole food for all of you, you would have starved to death. On what ground can you say that to my mom? At the time when those people came, didn’t all of you push my mom to check on them. What, now you’re blaming us?”
Wang Wenwen was truly disappointed, the villagers demanded for a lady to be a mole and pushed her mom out, but turned their back on her when it was convenient. Wang Wenwen suddenly felt that she was blind to actually be happy when she saw them.
There were still people with consciences who lowered their heads in shame after hearing Wang Wenwen’s words. Indeed, they were not conscientious back then, but who wouldn’t want to think for themselves? They felt that it was an act of self preservation.
Aunty Yang did not feel the least bit ashamed but instead thinking that it was the right move. She stared at Wang Wenwen dead in the eyes and replied coldly, “It’s so sad that our families did not have a pretty daughter like a fox charmer, who charmed others to give her all the good things. But fortunately for me, I don’t have a pretty daughter. If my daughter was touched by such people, I would rather bang my own head and die.”
Wang Wenwen’s face turned white as she grabbed her cuffs tightly. Aunty Yang’s words made her recall the ordeal she had just been through. Although she was still pure, how many people would believe her?
Seeing Wang Wenwen’s face, Wang Qin’s heart turned cold. Before, she only cared about her daughter’s safe return and felt joy. After carefully checking on her, she discovered the bite mark on her neck and the clothes. Was it too late?
