BXBX NOVEL Chapter 119 - Fang Chi Jumped In The River
Usually, Little bun would have given his father a white look, but he too was listless right now. He was used to having his way at home, especially when the matter was regarding food - he expected the same here too. Just like his daddy, he has a sweet tooth, so despite his mother\'s repeated warnings, he ate a little this and a little that of the desserts now he was feeling quite stuffed. Why was his stomach so small?
So annoying.
Yu Dong looked at the groaning father-son duo and felt her lips twitch. Yup. Letting these two sit in front of the carriage with her was a dangerous proposition. For her.
"Sit right! For me and for the love of the lord, listen to me this time," said Yu Dong as she closed the carriage door. Earlier, she had warned both of them not to overeat and take a few desserts as take away with them, but the two didn\'t listen. They kept saying that it was fine and they were fine. Before she knew it, two pigs were sitting at the table with her.
They are such a gluttonous duo. Sighed Yu Dong as she hopped on the carriage and whipped the mule with her whipping stick.
As the carriage started moving towards home again, Chen Mi spoke up. "Wait, wait, wife! The carriage! The carriage is going too fast! Slow down! I feel sick!"
"Ababa! Fuufaa! Stooow! Stow!" chimed Little bun supporting his daddy\'s \'too fast\' theory.
Yu Dong "..." This was why I told you not to overeat!
Nonetheless, she still slowed down the speed of the carriage with a sigh. The things she had to do for love. The result of slowing down the carriage was that the ride home took longer than the trip to town on foot.
Yu Dong finally drove past the village\'s entrance gate. She was enshrouded in the sense of defeat.
An immediate uproar ensued when the villagers saw Yu Dong return with a newly brought carriage and mule. After what happened last time, many villagers waited for Yu Dong to return to her old ways and fall to ruin. Instead of falling down, her life was getting better and better. What was this? How could a former drunk earn so much money?
Yu Dong paid no attention to the envious gazes of the villagers. After living in the village for a while, she was more or less used to their attitude. She simply drove the carriage down the road which led to her house. Suddenly someone came rushing in front of her carriage.
If not for her fast reflexes, Yu Dong would have definitely had an accident, and the person in front of her would have a meeting with the king of hell. Fortunately, Yu Dong was able to stop the mule and the carriage in time to not run over the person in front of her.
Chen Mi and Little bun were thrown off the seat inside the carriage. If not for Chen Mi, who stabilized his footing on time, the two would have fallen on the floor, hitting the opposite wall of the carriage.
"What the hell! Do you want to die? If so," Yu Dong was so upset that she started scolding without looking to see who it was. But when she realized that the person standing in front of her carriage was Granny Fang, she stopped at once. Of course, she immediately noticed Granny Fang\'s tear-stricken face, which surprised Yu Dong. She jumped down from the carriage and helped Granny Fang up. "What\'s wrong, Granny? Why are you running around like this? Why are you crying?"
Granny Fang, who thought that she was reaching the end of the line, finally got her first beacon of hope. She immediately clung to Yu Dong as she cried and begged, "Dong Dong! Dong Dong! Please save my Chi! I beg you, please save him, he jumped in the river! Please save him. I will - I will do anything for your family, just this once - just this once save him."
Granny Fang knew she was asking for too much. Her grandson was just a mer. With no good assets, even his face wasn\'t to the liking of most women. Wasn\'t it because of this that so many women didn\'t listen to her and shoved her away? Her grandson was of no use to them, and their family was so poor that they couldn\'t even repay the woman\'s family if something went wrong. Of course, no one was willing to save her grandson.
Yu Dong was startled when she heard that Fang Chi had jumped into the river. She knew that the guy was a bit of a pessimist, but she didn\'t think he was so sad as to jump in the river! Just how depressed that guy was!
"Stop crying, Granny Fang, tell me! Tell me where did he jump, I will go and save him!" Even the tone of Yu Dong\'s voice changed, and now it was carrying an unconscious sense of tension and fear.
Granny Fang immediately wiped her tears as she babbled, "By the reefs, he jumped off the cliff down to the river-"
Before Granny Fang could complete her sentence, Yu Dong was already rushing towards the direction of the reefs. Thankfully, she wasn\'t far away and soon reached the cliff where Fang Chi jumped. She looked around and swiftly found Fang Chi\'s floating body.
After making a swift decision, she took off her outer jacket and plunged right into the sea.
