Reincarnated Divine Couple

But after she left, he increasingly regretted letting her take all the household money, wondering if she might come back to cause trouble for him and Xiu Shui.

Min Da’an comforted the frightened Xiu Shui until she fell asleep, then quietly left.

Yu Yi, seeing Min Da’an leave in the middle of the night and heading in the direction Xiu Yun had gone, vaguely guessed his intentions and ran through another path behind the house to get ahead of him.

Chapter 36: Village Scum (4)

Xiu Yun carried her bundle, hurriedly leaving Luo Shang Village and climbing the mountain. She hadn’t eaten since being caught by the villagers. Min Ling brought her food, but she was still weak and her legs gave out halfway up the mountain. She found a stone to sit and rest, and soon saw Min Da’an walking up the mountain path.

Xiu Yun was startled, standing up and asking: “You followed me…” Halfway through her sentence, she saw the murderous look in Min Da’an’s eyes and suddenly understood. Min Da’an immediately tried to grab her bundle, and Xiu Yun let go and ran.

Min Da’an got the money pouch but was still not satisfied, chasing Xiu Yun closely.

Near a large stone close to the mountain path’s corner, Xiu Yun had run only a few steps when she heard a little girl’s voice call: “Be careful!” She turned back to see Min Da’an lunging directly at her and quickly dodged.

Min Da’an, just steps behind Xiu Yun, saw a steep cliff ahead. He wanted to push her down the mountain but was unexpectedly warned. His lunge missed, and as he tried to steady himself, the rain-soaked mountain path was extremely slippery. He couldn’t stop sliding towards the cliff.

Terrified, he dropped the bundle somewhere, wildly waving his hands and finally grabbing a thin tree by the cliff. However, more than half his body was already hanging below the cliff, suspended in mid-air.

The rain-softened ground meant the thin tree was slowly being pulled out by Min Da’an’s weight. His feet kicked uselessly, and he tried desperately to grab the ground with his other hand, only managing to grasp mud, crying out in panic: “Help! Help!”
