Chapter 103 He Didn't Kill Her
Chapter 103 He Didn't Kill Her
When Vivian woke up again, it was eight o'clock in the morning the following day.
There was also Morris in the room besides Yeon.
The two men kept watch over her for a whole night.
Vivian woke up and opened her eyes, only to feel a little weak all over.
"Vivian, you're finally awake?"
Yeon stammered when she saw Vivian awake.
Morris instantly got up and walked over to her, and as soon as he reached out and covered her
forehead, seeing that her fever had gone down, he asked, "How do you feel?"
"How did I get back?"
Vivian asked subconsciously, then raised her injured hand, feeling pain in her wrist.
"You didn't come back in the middle of the night, and Morris led a search for you."
Yeon sat next to her, her eyes red with aggression, "It's lucky that you're okay, otherwise I'd feel sorry
for you."
Born into a wealthy family, Yeon was arrogant and domineering in her day-to-day life, but she just loved
Morris, and se was very fond of Vivian as she had a good relationship with Morris and could help her
date him.
Despite hier domineering nature, she also had a kind heart underneath her arrogant exterior.
"He brought me back?"
Vivian's gaze sank as she remembered the masked man from yesterday.
"What's wrong?"
Sensing that something was wrong, Morris asked, "Who took care of your injuries?"
"Myself."
She said.
Morris then didn't ask any more questions.
Carrying a dagger with her was reasonable whens she went up the mountain.
Morris assumed that Vivian had also brought her dagger with her when she went up the mountain last
night, except that the location where she had fallen was next to a steep mountain, so perhaps the Nôvel/Dr(a)ma.Org - Content owner.
dagger had fallen down the mountain.
"It's good that you are okay."
Seeing that she was safe and sound, Morris felt relieved and said, "Just rest for the next two days, you
don't need to get involved in anything else."
"Well, okay."
She had lost blood, was weak, and she didn't want to move.
The village chief had given her a chicken stew to tonic her body.
In the afternoon the villagers all came to visit Vivian, and the enthusiastic villagers brought eggs, or
chickens, ducks, geese and fish, and other things.
After all, there were only these things in the countryside.
Vivian was deeply touched by the villagers' simple enthusiasm and was very happy in her heart.
After two days of rest, Yeon took care of Vivian and was more attentive than before.
Vivian enjoyed it very much.
That day, while she was crawfish fishing in the pond by the door, she bumped into the masked man
again.
Seeing the masked man walking across the pond with his cane, she shouted, "You, stop!"
She dropped the crawfish fishing sticks, got up and trotted across the street, walked up to the masked
man, and questioned, "Why did you leave me on the mountain after I saved you that day?"
No good deed goes unpunished. What the fuck is this shit?
She was so angry inside!
The masked man held his walking stick, hunched over, did not look at Vivian, only rolled up his sleeve
and pointed to the mottled marks on his arm, "I was in a hurry to get down the mountain that day to find
someone to save you, and fell down the mountainside."
Vivian looked at the bruises on his right arm, then saw him jerk up his left arm, which also had some
bruises on it, and she then believed it.
"Well, I thought you'd run away ungratefully."
Vivian's upset for a few days was finally eased down, and then she said to the masked man, "Come,
let's go crawfish fishing, and I'll take you to eat spicy crawfish at night."
Based on what the villagers said about the masked man's family, she knew that the masked man was
in his 20s, very young, and should be able to play with her.
So she would like take him crawfish fishing with her and have spicy crawfish for dinner.
Her arm was injured and she couldn't do heavy work, while Yeon was a girl from a rich family who
came to Liangchuan County just for a show, so she couldn't do any work, either.
The two of them had nothing better to do than kill the time fishing for crawfish in the pond.
After all, without internet or TV, life was boring.
"No need."
The masked man refused her outright.
Vivian was touched for he had 'rolled down the mountain' to save her that day, so she said insistently,
"Go, go, I'm not good at crawfish fishing, I've only caught a small half pot for an afternoon, come and
help."
Crawfish is very popular in the city.
But in the deep mountains, the villagers to cultivate the land and farming, simply are not interested in
that, which led to a flood of crawfish in the pond at the door or the village fields.
They naturally had an easy time crawfish fishing.
The masked man saw Yeon having fun with Vivian, and he didn't say a word as he fished for crawfish
by the pond.
That night, after Vivian had passed out, he sat beside her, the dagger in his hand already hanging on
Vivian's neck, but the man thought about her being poisoned to save him, and eventually withdrew the
dagger and went down the mountain.
Life and death are destiny, and it's only her luck.
And she didn't die!
In the evening, before Morris came back, the masked man left.
It was useless for Vivian to ask him stay again and again.
So, after Morris and others came back, they started to process the crawfish, peeled the garlic, and
made garlic crawfish.
Making crawfish in a rural pan was full of flavor and extra delicious.
After the meal, Vivian, who had eaten a lot, took a walk around the village, with Morris and Yeon
accompanying her, never leaving her side.
A few more days later, a construction crew of 30 people came from outside, as well as a team to
measure and install the cell tower.
The construction team, which was funded by the Mission City Community Foundation to build the
school, came over to select the land to start the project, and the team installed the cell tower then
intended to network the village.
In this way, landline telephones and televisions, as well as mobile phones, were later purchased for the
village.
Busy as hell.
However, the God was not kind.
Just as the construction team was preparing to work, a heavy rainstorm swept through.
The rain came swiftly and suddenly, and because there was no contact with the outside world, the
people in the mountains had no idea what was going on outside.
Heavy rain had been falling since the afternoon.
Although the village was on slightly higher ground, it was at the foot of a mountain, which was more or
less a cause for concern.
Vivian and Morris stood at the entrance of the village, watching the river rise up at the entrance of the
village, the murky yellowing water gurgling, she sighed, "When will the rain stop? The children are in
school and I'm afraid that the school is leaking at this moment."
In remote mountainous areas, the schools are dilapidated and it is the farmers in the villages who help
maintain the school houses.
The simple tiled house leaked everywhere when it stained by the rain, so the children could not study in
peace.
"It'll be nice when the new school is built."
Morris said.
"Let's go to the school and check it out. We've donated a lot of books to the school these days, so don't
let the rain get them wet."
Vivian suggested.
"Okay."
Morris responded and turned around to walk with Vivian towards the school.
"Wait for me, I go back to get something." Vivian said to Morris and went to the village chief's house
where she lived.
Morris waited for a moment and then saw her return with her duffel bag.
As he spent more and more time with Vivian, Morris felt more and more that this seemingly mediocre
woman had so much sparkle in her that was attracting him.
"This one's for you."
Morris walked over to her and handed her something.
He was holding his hand. Vivian could not see what was in it, so she asked, "Could it be raspberry
again?"
