The Fierce Farm Girl Has A Secret Space

Chapter 690: Chapter 690: Two Keys (1)_1

Yang Baiyue had waited for a long time but didn’t hear Yang Ruxin speak again. He had no idea whether she had left or simply didn’t wish to engage with him, leaving him in a state of constant anxiety.

Yang Ruxin didn’t want to talk anymore either because there wouldn’t be any progress even if the conversation continued. This Yang Baiyue was proving much more intelligent and difficult to deal with than she had anticipated.

After waiting a little while longer and realizing that there really was no further sound, Yang Baiyue tentatively called out a couple of times but still got no response. He finally let out a sigh, then went back to lying on the bed. However, he couldn’t fall asleep no matter what he tried. Unconsciously, he suddenly smelled a fragrance and then fell into a deep sleep.

Standing by the bed, Yang Ruxin looked down at the strange man lying there and let out a slight sigh. How low must a person sink to abandon their wife and children, to disown even their own parents and ancestors?

”You really have redefined my understanding of scumbags,” said Yang Ruxin with a sigh. Then, she stopped paying attention to him and turned to wander around the room. Since she was there, she might as well see if there was anything valuable.

However, to her disappointment, there was nothing. Not to mention anything of value, she couldn’t even find any pricey items, only a few pieces of fragmented silver.

Xiaolun saw Yang Ruxin’s disappointed expression and stuck out its snake tongue. Then, with a swift motion, it shot onto the bed where Yang Baiyue was sleeping and used its tail to hook over a pair of boots that had been placed at the head of the bed.

Yang Ruxin blinked. What was this all about? Nonetheless, she checked the shoes and discovered hollow spaces in the soles of both boots. She removed the insoles and pulled out two oil paper packages.

”What’s hidden inside the shoes?” Yang Ruxin looked at Xiaolun.

Xiaolun rolled its eyes, implying, ’Open them up and see for yourself.’

Yang Ruxin opened the packages. They weren’t treasures but rather two copper keys, one larger and one smaller. Although a bit disappointed, she didn’t plan to pass them up and directly threw them into her own space. After restoring the boots to their original state, she left the courtyard silently.

Meanwhile, in one of the guest courtyards of the Fang Family.

Dai Xiyan was sobbing pitifully in the arms of a woman.

”There, there.” The Chen Family matriarch patted her daughter’s back. ”You’ve been crying for a quarter of an hour now. It’s just a piece of clothing, right? We’ll buy another one next time...” She paused before adding, ”Besides, this is the Fang Family. If you keep crying like this and someone sees...”

Dai Xiyan suddenly sat up straight and wiped her tears. ”Mother, you don’t understand. That village girl was so vile...”

”Next time I see her, how about I teach her a lesson for you?” consoled the Chen Family matriarch in a soft voice. ”Look, your eyes are swollen. How will you face people tomorrow? Don’t forget our purpose for coming here,” she lamented, deeply regretting their decision. Who would have thought the Fang Family’s sickly son would get well? If she had known he could be cured, they never would have broken off the engagement.

Upon hearing this, Dai Xiyan stopped crying and looked up at the Chen matriarch. ”Isn’t it all your fault? You were too hasty in breaking off the engagement, and now he won’t even speak to me...” She had arrived yesterday, but her several attempts to approach Fang Tianze had been ignored, which frustrated her greatly.

”If you hadn’t made such a fuss about not wanting to marry, would your father and I have had the nerve to call off the engagement?” the Chen matriarch frowned. ”And now you’re blaming us?”

”Who knew he could actually get better?” retorted Dai Xiyan, rolling her eyes. ”But no matter, he used to like me. He’s probably just annoyed with me now. I’ll lower myself a bit and coax him. I’m sure I’ll win him back...”
