Chapter 545: Lover
Yu Dong chased after the scent, under the rain the scent of the wildflowers has been washed away but with her senses, she was able to trace the sweet scent to the other end of the mountain. The entire place was covered with thick and lush fauna, she could hardly sense the presence of any living person much less see anyone, she already knew that the woman was already gone but she still followed the traces that were left behind.
She pushed the dripping overgrown bushes aside with her hands before she headed towards the direction from which the scent was coming, to her surprise Yu Dong found an old and inhabited cave hidden behind the veils of wildly growing ivies.
" So, this is where the woman was raising the snake," Yu Dong mused as she looked at the snake skin that was lying on the floor of the cave and then walked towards the ashes that were still hot, clearly the woman has been waiting here for the entire night but then escaped when she noticed that nothing happened at the tree house.
Yu Dong crouched on the floor and carefully looked around the entire place but she didn't find anything, the woman behind this stalking and killing was really smart. She knew what she was doing and had a very good head in the game she was playing with all of them, if not then she would not have been hidden so deeply in the dark for so long.
Sighing, Yu Dong got up from the floor and then headed back to the tree house, she will have to look into the matter more deeply now that she knew that the stalker wasn't giving up, she thought that the stalker would at the least take consideration of the situation they were in but it looks like that the woman was simply mad, she only had one thing in her head and that was Xiao Hua!
" What are you saying? Are you saying that you will not be marrying me?" When Yu Dong got near the tree house she heard Old man Tang's familiar voice, she frowned and then turned her head in the direction from which the voice was coming. Old man Tang just divorced her grandmother but now he was talking about marrying someone already? Was he that desperate for it?
Yu Dong wasn't someone who would poke her nose in other's business but then she thought about how heartbroken Grandma Yu was and she turned in the direction in which she was walking, she has to see what kind of woman was it that Old man Tang was dying to marry her. After all, he just got a divorce but now he was bent on marrying someone else, what kind of beauty was it that was causing him to throw his old face away?
She walked as close as she could before coming to a stop behind a tree that was only a few metres away from where Old man Tang and his lover were, Yu Dong caught hold of the woman who was standing next to Old man Tang and let out a whistle.
The woman was indeed beautiful and not only was she exceptionally beautiful, but she was also even younger than Old man Tang, it would not be wrong to say that the woman was only a few years older than Yu Dong.
" I did not expect this at all," she murmured as she watched the drama in front of her, her gossiping flare ignited as she stared at Old man Tang who was desperately clutching the front of the woman's shirt. " But that old man Tang is really a heavy driver, he likes them young huh…"
Old man Tang did not know that someone was watching him, instead, he stared at the woman in front of him and almost tore her shirt open as he yelled at her, " You..you said that you will marry me! Now I am pregnant with your child and I even divorced my wife, what am I supposed to tell everyone?"
This was why he heartlessly left his wife to die, as long as she died, he could have married this woman with ease and said that he was young and needed someone's company by then no one would have said anything but now things were different his reputation was in drains and the villagers were gossiping behind his back, if they were to found out that he got pregnant with someone else child and made his wife wear a green hat, he will be hurled stones at!
" Yan Xiu, I don't know what you are going to do but you have to marry me! You have no other choice but to marry me, you hear me!" Old man Tang shouted, he couldn't lose any more face no matter what!
The woman named Yan Xiu's face scrunched up with annoyance but she still held Old man Tang's hands and gently said, " I know that you are upset but you have to understand…if we marry now then would it not mean that we are agreeing to have an affair? We need to be careful for a few days in case we are found then who knows what others might say, all right?"
" Wait for a few days? Then how many days do I have to wait? You tell me! How long do I have to wait for you to marry me huh?—— wait what are you doing?" Old man Tang's voice turned husky as he giggled, Yu Dong on the other hand gagged as she kicked herself off the tree stump and then walked away.
She wasn't going to watch anymore, after all, who was interested in watching a dried shrivelled fig bounce?
Yu Dong returned home and then changed her clothes, before she returned to her room, she took a look at Xiao Hua who was sleeping in his room peacefully before she pecked him on the forehead. Now that the stalker was on the move again, she will have to protect this little ball of sunshine properly if something was to happen to him, she would never be able to forgive herself.
She cupped Xiao Hua's cheek and softly smiled as she spoke, " Don't worry, I will protect you."
Who knows whether or not Xiao Hua heard her or not but he smiled in his dreams.
