Under Zhang Xiulan and Chen Xinyue’s gazes, Chen Baiyi packed a small bag and placed the agreement inside. Then, he walked out satisfied. The village chief asked beside her, “Baiyi, what are your next plans?”

Looking at the scorching sun, Chen Baiyi narrowed her eyes and said, “I plan to stay in the old house left behind by my grandparents first before making other plans.”

That old house was at the westernmost end of the village, and the Chen family’s home was at the easternmost end. The village chief immediately sensed her determination to stay away from Zhang Xiulan. He said worriedly, “No one has lived in that house for more than twenty years. It’s very shabby now.”

Although it was called a house, it only had a living room and courtyard and it was in a small remote corner. This was also the reason Chen Baiyi’s father had moved out as soon as he got married. That place was small, and there was no room for four people.

Chen Baiyi waved her hand to indicate that it didn’t matter. “It’s already very good for me to have a place to live.”

The village chief had no other choice. He couldn’t let her stay in his house. Looking at this optimistic and beautiful girl, he sighed heavily and left.

Chen Baiyi arrived at the old house. No one had managed this place for many years, so it was covered in weeds and dust. She borrowed a basin of water from the neighbor’s house and did some cleaning. She only stopped when she was feeling dizzy from hunger.

So what if there was no food? Chen Baiyi wasn’t troubled by this.

Previously, Zhang Xiulan often starved her, so she had developed the habit of running up the mountain. Some kind-hearted old men and women had taught her how to screen edible plants and even secretly taught her some tricks for setting traps to catch game. Therefore, she would eat a sumptuous meal on the mountain from time to time before returning home.

Unfortunately, Chen Baiyi had walked all over the places where she had set up traps today, but she did not see any prey enter the net. Before she walked to the last one, she closed her eyes and prayed. When she opened her eyes, she heard the rustling of animals touching leaves.

Gotcha!

She heard the faint sound of footsteps in the distance, but she couldn’t care less. She took three steps forward and stuck her head out to check the trap, but she didn’t expect a man to be squatting inside.

The man had bold eyebrows and bright eyes. His gaze was cold and his thin lips were pursed tightly, like a cheetah that was ready to attack.

Chen Baiyi realized that she was probably prey in his eyes.

She cried out in shock. Before she could finish shouting, the man grabbed her collar and pulled her into the trap. Seeing that she still wanted to shout, he stopped her by kissing her.

Chen Baiyi’s eyes widened as her mind went blank.

The sound of conversation got closer and closer. Chen Baiyi took a step back and wanted to call for help. The man pressed the back of her head and the two of them kissed each other.

Hooligan!

Chen Baiyi was shocked by the other party’s rude behavior. She struggled after freezing for a while, but the man had a lot of strength. No matter how she kicked and struggled, he did not budge.

Hearing the voices gradually fade away, the man let go of her and said apologetically, “Sorry for being rude.”

Chen Baiyi wiped her mouth with her sleeve and spat out a few more times. She glared at the man and said, “Who exactly are you?”

“My name is He Xiao.” The man watched her disdainful reaction with a strange expression. He only said, “I’ll be responsible for you.”

Chen Baiyi shook her head. “No need. Just stay away from me.”

Seeing that her lips were pale and her forehead was covered in cold sweat, He Xiao asked, “Are you sick?”

Chen Baiyi waved her hand. “I’m hungry.”

He Xiao said, “There’s a wild chicken here. Take it.”

Chen Baiyi subconsciously looked in the direction of his finger and saw a chicken hiding in the corner of the trap.

To give her the prey she had caught with her own trap to her, this man was quite scheming!
