Argh!
This time, it was the others who were stunned.
"This is your home?
Where are the rest of your family members? Is it just the two of you living here?"
Jhiang Yuan was somewhat incoherent. In such a place, it wasn't safe for two kids.
"A few days ago, a group of people came; they took my parents away.
They said they were going to some lake, my mom hid me and my sister in the cellar, and told us not to come out.
Yesterday, I was so hungry I came out to take your buns.
Sister, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to."
Wow, what a polite child!
"Nonsense, there were at least two lids of steamed buns missing. How could you two have finished them?
What's really going on? Why don't you tell the truth?"
Zhang Kaiyang wore a fierce expression, and Chuyi's expression also changed, gripping the firewood knife tightly.
Jhiang Yuan quickly intervened to smooth things over, giving him a hard stare.
"Speak nicely, don't scare the kids."
