Chapter 1760: Chapter 1760: Who Took Her Steamed Bun
She repackaged the steamed bun, took a sip of water, and lay down on the bed to rest.
Now she’s learned to be brave and go with the flow.
She is no longer the ordinary Jian Yufei, who would feel aggrieved once she fell down.
Jian Yufei pondered her own thoughts and eventually drifted into a hazy sleep.
Her sleep wasn’t very deep, afraid someone might suddenly come in, so she didn’t dare sleep deeply, which naturally led to an unsettled rest.
...
By the time she woke up, it was already afternoon.
Jian Yufei supported her body and rubbed her aching forehead.
This wretched place really makes her feel suffocated even with just a glance.
Jian Yufei picked up the water bottle on the bedside, unscrewed the cap, and took a sip of water.
Suddenly, she noticed something was amiss.
The steamed bun she had placed with the water bottle was gone—
Who took her steamed bun?
She distinctly remembered placing it at the bedside, but now there’s nothing.
Jian Yufei thought to herself, was it stolen by mice?
There was no one else here but her, it must have been the mice that stole it.
Jian Yufei chuckled, how daring they were to steal food right under her nose.
Oh well, she’s not hungry anyway, let them eat it.
...
The afternoon quickly passed, and it was mealtime again.
The skylight opened once more, and food was thrown down from above.
Naturally, Jian Yufei wouldn’t miss the chance, she went up again to shout and threaten, but still, no one paid attention to her.
She was furious, did they think she was joking?
She seriously meant what she said, if Nangong Xu doesn’t let her out in three days, she’d rather die by smashing her head.
She’s certainly still useful to him, if she dies, she doesn’t believe he would ignore it.
Jian Yufei picked up the steamed bun and water on the ground, placed them on the bed, and then went to the toilet.
The makeshift toilet was truly simple, just a piece of cloth as a curtain, the toilet blocked by wooden boards, with a stick inserted into the wooden board.
Beside it was a box of tissues, thankfully there were tissues, otherwise she really would break down.
Jian Yufei grabbed the stick, pulled away the wooden board...
When she came out and planned to wash her hands with mineral water, she was astonished to find the steamed bun she placed on the bed was gone again.
The mice here are incredibly quick, in just a short time, her steamed bun was stolen.
She hadn’t eaten all day, even if she didn’t want to eat, she’d still be hungry.
Jian Yufei sat speechless on the bed, resorted to drinking water to satiate her hunger.
No idea if they’d send over a midnight snack...
Next time she gets food, she’ll eat it immediately, so it doesn’t benefit the mice here.
Jian Yufei lay bored on the bed, thinking about Ruan Tianling, thinking about Ansel, and Junqi.
Is Junqi really dead?
Jian Yufei’s eyes reddened, the pain in her heart made her wish she would die.
"Child, it’s your mother who wronged you, I shouldn’t have abandoned you back then..."
Jian Yufei placed all the blame on herself.
She curled up her body, closed her eyes, cried silently for a while, until her emotions calmed down.
******************
Nangong Ruyue awoke, and the servant told her about Jian Yufei’s actions of shooting Nangong Xu.
Murdering one’s kin is a grave crime.
When she killed Nangong Xu, she didn’t think she would survive.
It turns out she was fine, but Yufei encountered trouble.
Nangong Ruyue immediately went to Nangong Xu to ask for clarification.
Nangong Xu was sitting on the sofa, holding a glass of red wine, in a leisurely posture.
Nangong Ruyue rushed in front of him, gesturing desperately:
