NovelEnglishChapter 2339: Becoming An Animal
Ning Shu smelled the herbal medicine Yi Liang made for her. It was an herbal medicine supposed to reduce swelling and stop bleeding. She had not expected that Yi Liang would know medicine.
Since he had medicinal knowledge, then why was he still living so poorly?
Yi Liang’s hands were slightly red and swollen, obviously because it was cold. He used both of his hands to wrap the strip of cloth around Ning Shu’s leg.
Ning Shu stared at Yi Liang. He wasn’t tall, and his complexion was sallow, but his facial features were nicely defined and his eyes were a beautiful shade of black.
Yi Liang lived alone in the house.
With his good looks and how his house looked, Ning Shu concluded that his family’s situation probably wasn’t bad before.
“You should stay here until you recover,” Yi Liang said after making a knot.
Ning Shu opened her mouth, but all that came out was whimpering, which rendered her speechless.

Yi Liang put one in a bowl and gave it to Ning Shu, then began to gnaw on the other one. “Eat. This is the only thing I got. When your injury has healed, go back to the mountain. Living there is better than being here.”
Ning Shu was famished. She had stayed in the trap for so long, all the while injured and bleeding, as well as cold and hungry.
The potato Yi Liang gave her was roasted sweet potato. Ning Shu quickly finished eating it.
Yi Liang, seeing the little fox eating so hurriedly, couldn’t help but say, “Isn’t it hot?”
Ning Shu wiped her mouth with her front paws. Suddenly, she felt a little like breaking down. She really felt like she was becoming an animal.
Yi Liang poured some water into Ning Shu’s bowl. Ning Shu stuck out her tongue to lick the water. The water was cool.
Ning Shu inwardly sighed. This child…
How should she repay him?
Everyone in this world lusted after money, power, and strength.
What wishes did Yi Liang have? She’d help him fulfill them.
The room was very quiet. Yi Liang was drinking water when suddenly, they heard the banging sound of someone slamming the door.
As soon as Ning Shu heard the sound, she knew that it must not be anything good. She turned to look at Yi Liang’s gentle face again.
Hearing that sound, Yi Liang’s face became filled with anger and hatred, mixed with helplessness and sadness.
The sound became louder and more urgent, and then came an exasperated voice saying, “Yi Liang, hurry up and open the door!”
“Don’t think you can escape by hiding at home.”
“Open the door!”
“…”

Yi Liang covered Ning Shu carefully with the blanket.
He then closed the bedroom door before he confronted those people.
Ning Shu peeked out the blanket and began to eavesdrop.
“Yi Liang, hurry up and move out of this house! This house belongs to the clan.”
“Who knows where your damned father ran off to? Your mother probably ran off of someone else.”
Yi Liang’s voice was deep and filled with anger. “Don’t you talk about my parents this way!”
“And your sister, who knows which human trafficker managed to lure her off?” The other party kept provoking Yi Liang.
Listening to these words, Ning Shu couldn’t help but be a little speechless. This Yi Liang wasn’t a jinx, was he?
