Chapter 2493 The Shadow
When Huo Xiaoli rushed out of the room, he happened to meet Jiang Fuzhen who came upstairs.

The two walked across each other and almost bumped into each other.

Seeing Huo Xiaoli's pale face, Jiang Fuzhen asked: "Xiao Li, what's wrong with you?"

Huo Xiaoli spoke incoherently, and didn't say why.

Finally, people bypassed her and headed outside.

When Jiang Fuzhen turned around inexplicably, Wen Yunyu had already come down from the second floor.

Wen Yunyu's expression was unusually calm.

He walked down the stairs with one hand in his pocket, Jiang Fuzhen asked unwillingly: "You were with Xiao Li just now?"

"Yeah." Wen Yunyu nodded.

Jiang Fuzhen asked again: "What happened to her?"

Wen Yunyu raised the corners of his pretty eyebrows and smiled: "It's nothing..."

Jiang Fuzhen didn't believe it.

But Wen Yunyu didn't explain much to her, and went downstairs alone.

……

dinner.

Huo Xiaoli sat separately from Wen Yunyu on purpose.

Jiang Fuzhen was the last to go downstairs, and there was only an empty seat next to Wen Yunyu at the dining table, and she also sat down.

The atmosphere at dinner tonight was embarrassing as hell.

Huo Xiaoli lowered her head and refused to raise it all the time. Aunt Yu was rarely quiet and did not show any enthusiasm.

Huo Xiaoli ate a meal like a stick in his throat.

After finally swallowing all the rice in the bowl, she put down her chopsticks, got up and said, "I'm going to Uncle Qiu's house, and I need acupuncture tonight."

After speaking, she didn't look at anyone and went out alone.

Wen Yunyu raised his head and glanced at her back, with an imperceptible smile on the corner of his mouth.

When he looked back, he found Yu Tai who was sitting opposite was looking at him.

Yu Tai drank some white wine today, his face was flushed, and he had a little more of the simplicity of a country child.

Yu Tai raised his wine glass and said to Wen Yunyu: "Brother Yunyu, I respect you, you are my idol."

Although Yu Tai said this in his mouth, there was no admiration in his eyes.

Wen Yunyu also picked up the wine glass and drank without saying anything.

……

When I came back from Lao Qiutou, it was already dark.

Recently, Yu Changhong's condition worsened, and Jiang Fuzhen hadn't accompanied Huo Xiaoli to Lao Qiutou's place for acupuncture for a long time.

In addition, Wen Yunyu's sudden confession made the two of them a little more awkward.

It is even more impossible for Huo Xiaoli to ask him to accompany her.

Besides, the folk customs in the village have always been simple and honest, even in the dark, they have never heard of encountering bad people.

Therefore, even if Huo Xiaoli went alone, no one was worried about what would happen.

It happened to be 8:[-] p.m. when Huo Xiaoli left Old Man Qiu's house.

Since it was winter and it got dark early, she didn't stay long.

The old man Qiu's house is only about 500 meters away from Yu's house, and there is not even enough road to walk from the east end of the village to the west end of the village.

There are no street lights in the village, so Huo Xiaoli turned on the lighting function of his mobile phone to illuminate the road.

But as soon as the lighting function was turned on, the mobile phone sounded a low-battery notification tone.

Huo Xiaoli glanced at the screen, which indicated that there was less than 10% of the battery left.

But it doesn't matter, it's not too far away, enough for Yu's family.

As Huo Xiaoli walked forward slowly, a black shadow suddenly flashed behind him.

Perhaps it was Huo Xiaoli who heard something, turned his head, and took a photo with his mobile phone.

Behind, nothing.

Huo Xiaoli hesitated for a moment, thinking that maybe it was a wild cat in the village, so he didn't take it seriously, turned around and continued walking forward.

It wasn't until he saw the bright lights in Yu's house that Huo Xiaoli put away his phone and walked towards the yard.
