Can’t Take My Eyes Off You Chapter 1242 - Borrowing Coal

Chapter 1242: Borrowing Coal

Even though they had nothing in the room, Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi discovered that someone had rummaged through their things when they arrived back at their home.
Although that person had placed her and Lu Xingzhi’s things back in almost the same place, and the money that Lu Xingzhi had put in his suitcase had not been missing, the two of them still noticed it the moment they entered the room.
The quilt had been folded properly, but the direction of the pattern had changed. The person who had entered the room must have searched meticulously, even the quilt. It was very likely that the quilt had been opened and checked. After confirming that there was nothing then, the quilt had been put back in its place.
“Wait in the room. I’ll go next door to get something.” Lu Xingzhi told Jiang Yao to sit in the room and wait, but he was still worried. “It’s better for you to come with me.”
Then, he held the empty bucket in one hand and held Jiang Yao’s hand as they walked next door.
Their neighbor’s door was closed. Lu Xingzhi put the empty bucket on the side and knocked on the door.
A man in his 50s or 60s opened the door. When he saw Lu Xingzhi, he smiled kindly, but his eyes had a different emotion. He was on his guard.
“Little Brother, how are you doing?”
“My wife and I just arrived today. We didn’t have time to buy coal, so we wanted to borrow a few from you. We’ll return them to you tomorrow.” Lu Xingzhi pushed the empty bucket forward.
Jiang Yao said, “Uncle, we don’t need too many. Just five or six will do. Then can you give us two red coals? Alternatively, we can purchase some from you! I’m new here, and I’m not used to the food. It’s too spicy, so my husband wants to make me some dinner.”
“Oh, it’s just a small matter!” The man looked relieved. Then, he turned around and went back to his room before bringing six coals with his bare hands and putting them into Lu Xingzhi’s empty bucket. Then, he took some coals from his burning coal stove and put them into Lu Xingzhi’s and Jiang Yao’s coal stoves.
After that, the man was not in a hurry to leave. Instead, he called out to the other person in the room and introduced them to Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi. “That is my wife. We just moved here not too long ago. From now on, we are neighbors. Let’s get to know each other so that we can take care of each other in the future.”
“Uncle and Auntie, you are not from Shu City?” Jiang Yao was almost shocked when she saw the old lady come out. However, she hid it very quickly and did not let anyone notice it. “Judging from your accent, you don’t seem to be from Shu City.”
The man waved his hand. “No, we’re not. We’re from the north.”
“What a coincidence, so are we,” Jiang Yao replied with a smile. Then, she saw Lu Xingzhi skillfully crouched with a paper box and fanning the coal stove.
Although the smile on her face did not stop for a second, her heart was burning with anger.
Jiang Yao had never seen that woman in person, but she had seen her photo!
She had seen her photo from the newspaper that Wen Xuehui had given her. It was from the day she was released from prison!
That old woman was the person who had caused Zheng Yi so much pain for so many years! She was the one who had caused Zheng Yi to be disfigured.
Jiang Yao was shocked to meet that old woman in Shu City; that old man and old woman were obviously not an old married couple.
It was very likely that they were members of the gang. They were probably just low-level thugs, so they were arranged to stay there. They might have stayed in Jiang Yao and Lu Xingzhi’s room previously.
