Switched Marriage The Coddled Little Wife novel Chapter 77

Chapter 77: Chapter 77: Acquaintance

"Move in, everyone move in."

The man shouted as he squeezed into the bus, causing the people he pushed to quietly complain, as he didn’t look like a good person.

Not only was he muscular and bald, but he also had a scar on his face.

Lin Chuxia only glanced at him briefly before turning her attention back to the scenery outside the window.

The corn in the fields had been harvested, and now they were busy planting winter wheat.

Her older brother and sister-in-law had been busy tidying up the vegetable garden, planning to plant wheat there too. They had greeted her this morning, telling her not to rush with her farm work, as they would plant the wheat in a few days.

Ever since her family split up, she didn’t have to worry about the farm work at all. Usually, Mr. Qin helped her manage it, and when it came to major tasks such as planting and harvesting, Qin Han had it all arranged early.

In her past life, she was completely preoccupied with managing her family’s affairs, but in this life, being with the Qin Family, she didn’t have to worry about anything, which she was still not quite used to.

By chance, she turned her head and saw that in the crowded bus, a large hand was stealthily reaching towards a teenager’s pocket.

The teenager was unaware, carefully holding two chickens by his side.

Lin Chuxia followed the hand, seeing that the man was not tall and somewhat dark and thin. When he got on, everyone’s attention was on the big man, not realizing there was another familiar face.

It was the same man who had tried to steal her purse before.

It seemed that his previous attempt had failed, and he was only detained for a month or so for education before he was out again.

Just as Lin Chuxia was about to speak out, she saw one of the chickens the teenager was holding start to poop, and splat, a pile of it landed right on the man’s hand.

The man, who initially had an expressionless face as if nothing was wrong, suddenly stiffened, slowly lowered his head to look at his hand.

Whether it was because the chicken had caught a cold, it released a splatter of watery poop all over the man’s hand, flowing down his fingers.

"Damn..."

A roar echoed through the bus, startling everyone on board except the driver to look towards the man.

Seeing the chicken poop on his hand, some people felt disgusted, while others looked sympathetically at the teenager.

"You’re courting death, bringing a chicken onto the bus without sewing its butt shut, and it shits all over my hand..."

Only then did the teenager realize he had caused trouble. His already pale little face turned even whiter, "I’m sorry, I’m sorry, I have some paper to wipe it off..."

In his panic, he fumbled in his pocket for paper, but the man grabbed his shoulder, "You think paper can clean this? You should be thankful I’m not making you lick it clean."

With his hand covered in chicken poop, he reached for the teenager’s clothes.

The teenager, realizing the man’s intention, looked horrified but dared not move.

The people around, although disgusted by the man’s behavior, just coldly observed the situation.

At that moment, a pale, delicate hand reached out and grabbed the man’s wrist.

The hand looked frail and boneless, yet it stopped the man from moving further.

"Who the hell is meddlin—" Before he could finish saying "meddling," the man saw a face that was almost smiling.

He choked on his words, nearly suffocating. fгee𝑤ebɳoveɭ.cøm

"This comrade, after all, a chicken is just an animal, and you’re quite grown up, why lower yourself to argue with an animal and trouble a child?"

Lin Chuxia spoke in an unhurried voice, clear and pleasant, as if reasoning with him, but to the man, it only felt like a slap to his face, his stomach, his whole body aching.

"Yes, yes, you’re right. I shouldn’t have argued with a child, or even with the chicken."

He gently slapped the chicken on the head.

"You poop around without even knowing to apologize, next time I’ll stew and eat you, but I’ll let you go this time."

After saying that, he cautiously looked at Lin Chuxia, "You saw, it pooped on my hand and I hit it, are we even now?"

Lin Chuxia smiled slightly, "What is it?"

The boy also smiled, taking a step forward.

"I didn’t properly thank you just now, Sister. I really owe a lot to you today, otherwise, I wouldn’t know what to do. It’s my first time traveling this far. My elder sister got married here, and now she’s pregnant. My mom wanted to send her a couple of chickens but didn’t have the time, I thought I could handle it but..."

He scratched the back of his head, his face showing a bashful look, and revealing a bit of the boyishness of a big boy.

"You did well, but when you are out alone, you still need to be careful about safety, and also, make sure to keep your money safe, there are a lot of pickpockets around," Lin Chuxia reminded him again.

The boy’s expression changed, and he hurriedly checked his pockets where his money still was.

He realized why that man was always squeezing close to him, if it wasn’t for him squeezing him, the chickens wouldn’t have defecated on his hand. Thinking back, that must have been a thief trying to steal from him.

Then, Sister letting him sit on her spot was also to keep thieves from stealing from him again.

At that moment, he felt even more grateful towards Lin Chuxia.

Lin Chuxia didn’t say much else, "Go to your sister’s place early, don’t dally on the way."

After saying that, she turned and walked towards the Department Store.

"Sister!"

The boy called out to her again, turning around only to see a rosy-cheeked, white-toothed boy with an embarrassed smile, "I’m already eighteen, I’ll be attending university next year, I’m not a child."

On the bus, being called a child was one thing, but being told not to dally around?

Wang Tianyu looked at the sister in front of him, who really wasn’t much older than him.

Lin Chuxia nodded, "Got it."

Seeing Lin Chuxia walking away again, Wang Tianyu suddenly felt annoyed.

After all that, he had forgotten to tell Sister his name.
