The Village Girl Who Jinxes Her Husband Is Filthy Rich Chapter 133 - The Scar under the Mask

Chapter 133: The Scar under the Mask

Lin Yuelan said this with insouciance, but it sounded sad to the others.

Jiang Zhennan and Guo Bing didn’t understand Lin Yuelan’s situation in the Lin family Village, but the image of a poor child without food appeared in their minds.

However, they had another doubt…

“Miss Lin, why didn’t you go up the mountain to hunt?” Guo Bing asked. With Lin Yuelan’s skills, hunting wild rabbits should be a piece of cake. Plus, she could sell the ones she couldn’t finish. How did she end up so poor that she had to eat the wild vegetables by the roadsides?

As soon as Guo Bing’s words fell, there was no other sound except the clanking of chopsticks and porcelain bowls and the chirping of insects outside.

Everyone was silent, including Lin Yiwei and Doctor Zhang.

Lin Yiwei was the village chief, but this was Lin Yuelan’s personal matter, so he chose to remain silent.

Doctor Zhang was an outsider, but in the past three years, he had long understood Lin Yuelan’s difficulties and helplessness. However, as an outsider, it was not appropriate for him to interfere in the matters between Lin Yuelan and Lin Laosan’s family. Therefore, he could only help her occasionally. For example, when she was seriously injured, he would take a look at her and give her some free medicine.

As for Lin Yuelan, she had her own reason to keep mum. She ate a piece of rabbit meat and replied, “I didn’t know how to hunt before!” In other words, she didn’t know martial arts in the past.

Erm…

Guo Bing hadn’t considered that possibility. However, it was impossible to reach Lin Yuelan’s level of mastery overnight either. Lin Yuelan must have been training for a long time already. So why wouldn’t she know how to hunt three years ago?

Jiang Zhennan also had the same doubts. However, since Yue ‘Er didn’t want to talk about it, he didn’t press.

His heart was angry at Lin Yuelan’s parents. When they met two months ago, Lin Yuelan looked so sallow and skinny. How could her parents not do anything about that?

Based on what Lin Yuelan said, she had been living on her own since three years ago. She had no food to eat, so she had to eat the wild vegetables to fill her stomach. She didn’t have rice, so she had to dig up the wild gra.s.s by the roadside to eat as her staple food.

Jiang Zhennan could not imagine how Lin Yuelan had managed to survive until now on just wild vegetables. In the winter, there would be no wild vegetables. Even the weeds would have dried up, so what would she eat then?

Jiang Zhennan was called the Ultimate Jinx, but as the son of the Zhengguo Court, he was given some living expenses until he was ten. At least, he could feed himself. The more he thought about it, Jiang Zhennan’s cold heart started to ache for Lin Yuelan, who had been abandoned by her parents.

Without saying anything, he s.n.a.t.c.hed the last piece of vegetable and egg from under Guo Bing’s chopsticks and put it in Lin Yuelan’s bowl. Then, he lowered his head and continued eating.

Lin Yuelan was confused at first, but when she saw the man eating seriously with his head lowered, she suddenly understood.

Jiang Zhennan didn’t say anything but Lin Yuelan could feel his concern for her. He used actions to show that now that she had him as her friend, she wouldn’t go hungry again.

This was only the second time Lin Yuelan had met Jiang Zhennan, but she could tell that he was a man who was cold on the outside but warm on the inside. It was his position that required him to exude a terrifying and sharp aura. Coupled with his reticence, he gave off a cold and ruthless feeling that kept strangers away.

However, he was a warm-hearted man.

When the two of them went to pick up the mushrooms together, he was worried for her when she jumped from the tree. It was why he quickly threw the mushrooms away and caught her with open arms.

After that, when he heard a tiger’s roar, the first thing he did was to protect her and put her behind him. Then, he looked around vigilantly.
