Chapter 185 Eat Up
The fire scene was in chaos. All the people who could come to put out the fire had already arrived and were busy working.
Just when everyone was exhausted, the fire was finally put out. If it was a little later, the Fiery Sunstone House would have exploded.
Tie Wandao was furious and sent people to investigate the cause of the fire. At this time, a man suddenly broke in and said, "Report to the clan leader, the young clan leader is missing!"
Before, everyone was busy putting out the fire and no one had time to look after Tie Hongyan.
Tie Wandao ordered the woman in brown clothes to be brought over. The moment his men saw the woman, she committed suicide out of fear that Tie Wandao would torture her.
"Go find the young patriarch for me!" Tie Wandao was extremely annoyed.
Chapter 39
In a secluded place where few people go, Tie Hongyan, who had escaped, was walking quietly with a cloth bag containing food, thinking to himself: If I can climb over the mountain in front, I will be free and will never be bullied again!
At this moment, a little boy suddenly appeared not far in front of her and looked at the bag in her hand. Although the boy was very dirty and his face was covered with dirt, he still looked very good.
Tie Hongyan was startled when she saw a stranger in front of her, thinking she was going to be caught. She saw that he was just a child and did not come to catch her, but she did not know why he was looking at the bag in her hand, so she decided to take a detour to avoid trouble.
Just as she turned around to leave, she heard a "thump". Looking back, she saw that the little boy had fallen to the ground.
Tie Hongyan walked over carefully and asked, "Hey, what's wrong with you?" The little boy said with a weak voice, "Hungry... starving..."
Tie Hongyan took out a piece of snack from his cloth bag and gave it to him.
"Is there any more?" the little boy asked after he finished eating.
Tie Hongyan gave him another piece.
"I'm not full...can you give it all to me?" the little boy asked, looking at her with pitiful eyes.
"Give it all to you?!" Tie Hongyan knew from his expression that he must be starving. Normally, she would give him all without hesitation, but at this moment, the food was all she could rely on to escape. Without it, she couldn't climb over the mountain ahead and would have to go back and continue to be bullied. In her opinion, the food in the bag was almost equivalent to her entire future freedom.
"I'm so hungry!" said the little boy.
Tie Hongyan couldn't bear to see his pitiful appearance, so he gave all the food to him.
"Thank you! You are so nice!" The little boy started eating voraciously.
Seeing that he had swallowed the last piece of snack, Tie Hongyan burst into tears sadly. She knew that without the food, she would not be able to escape. She knew how rare this chance to escape was. If it hadn't been for the fire, it would have been almost impossible for her to escape. If she missed this chance, it would be difficult for her to find another chance to escape. Thinking of being forced by the adults to do things she didn't want to do, and thinking of Tie Wandao whipping her before, she felt very sad. At first, when she saw the pitiful look of the little boy, although she knew that the food was very important to her, she still gave him all the food she brought out naturally out of her nature. But when she saw him swallow the last piece of snack, and when she really saw the food disappear from her sight, she really realized that her hope of escape had been eaten by this little boy.
