Chapter 228: Choice

Lin Xu returned to the drafty wooden shack, where a little girl about seven or eight years old walked out from behind a plank.

"Brother... I'm hungry."

The little girl was dressed in rags and dirt... She looked at the young Lin Xu with eager eyes.

Lin Xu quickly pulled out an oil-paper wrapped package from beneath his clothes, carefully opened it, and revealed a pancake inside, except the pancake was already misshapen and torn.

"Xi, eat quickly."

He hurriedly tore off half of the pancake and handed it to his sister Lin Xi.

After receiving the pancake, the little girl quickly gobbled it down.

When Lin Xu wanted to eat the remaining half of the pancake, just as he was about to bite into it, he still tore off another half and wrapped it in oil-paper.

He knew his sister would definitely be hungry again by evening.
