When Bright Moon Encounter the Dark Clouds

Chapter 113: Tan Jiao 15 (4)

In front of me, Wu Yu suddenly stopped, turned around, and grabbed the branches from my hand. He was pretty strong, able to hold a huge stack of branches.

He looks pretentious, not appearing reliable at all, Wu Yu said nonchalantly.

Yo, someone is jelly.

At that moment, I recalled how he was when we first met on the ship; he was also pretty pretentious. Of course, there was no need to mention that.

Wu Yu took a look at my arms and saw the shallow pink marks left by the branches and said, Leave the work to me. I dont want you getting cuts.

No. Im not that delicate. I reached out, wanting to help, but he quickly blocked my arms. Somehow, we ended up being close to each other. We were so close that I could even clearly see his neck and even the black hair behind his ear.

Ah Yu. If you really care about me, then let me be, I whispered beside his ear.

He froze and said nothing for a good second. Then without looking at me, he lowered his head and continued working. He was not smiling, and the muscles on his arms seemed rather tense.

I knew I couldnt tease him anymore, so I said nonchalantly, You keep working then. I need a break.

Seemingly angry at me, Wu Yu turned after he was done cleaning up and said without looking at me, Lets go. He walked so fast that I could not even keep up with him. And the expression he had now was the same as when I turned his face to me.

Wait up! He slowed down after my protest.

You think everyone has long legs like you. Your one step is almost two of mine, and youre also more muscular.

He replied with an Oh and slowed down.

We arrived back in the garden, and Wu Yu proceeded to examine the plumbing, electrical wires, and finally, the circuit breaker at the back of the house. No problems were found. In fact, the chances of electrical faults causing a fire was highly unlikely.

At the back of the house, there was also a small wooden shack. It was quite far from the house and was used for storage. Wu Yu said that there was even a basement there.

The door of the shack was not locked and was only shut. We pushed open the door to be greeted by a room filled with items. It was around ten square meters in size and even had a staircase going down to the basement.

Right then, I became shocked when I heard some noise.

It was the sounds of a man and a woman. I had imagined it while reading books and had heard it in shows, but this was my first time listening to it live. The mans groans sounded muffled, while the woman sounded gentle. There were even sounds of objects being knocked down.

I had never expected such a scene to occur in the Cheng residence. I looked up at Wu Yu, and he also seemed surprised. I could only think about who this couple was, and why they would come here to have fun.

A strange thought also came to mindseeing that they were so gutsy, that must mean that old madam Cheng had no idea about this.

I tugged at Wu Yus shirt and lowered my voice, Should we just leave? I mean, it wouldnt be nice to disturb them

He did not move.

No, his voice was similarly low as he said, We havent checked the basement, and we need to know who these two people are.

My eyes widened. He was not wrong. What if this was the cause of the fire and we did not find out?

Wu Yu took a look at me before letting out an audible cough.

The noises in the basement immediately disappeared. I felt the intense awkwardness in the air, but it would not be good to leave now. As such, I stood behind Wu Yu, trying to make my presence negligible. However, Wu Yu let out a playful smile and said, Theres no need to be so nervous about these things. Were all grown ups. He continued after a brief pause, You were pretty gutsy with your words and actions today.

Sounds of footsteps rang out. One sounded calm, while the other seemed to be procrastinating. Then a man and a woman came up from the steps. They had tidied up their clothes, but their faces were still red, and their hair messy.

Though I had not expected this from these two, it was still reasonable.
