Everyone had their own destiny.
At that moment, the girl asked, "How should I address you?"
"I'm Wilbur."
"Okay."
The living room fell into silence again.
After a long time, Ivy straightened up and said, "I escaped from the mountains."
"Escaped?" Wilbur was a bit surprised.
Ivy suddenly smiled and said, "Yes. I can tell that you're someone important. You might think that people like us are a joke."
"No, don't misunderstand me."
Ivy did not respond to that. Instead, she seemed to have found someone to vent to.
It was like she was complaining, but also talking to herself at the same time.
"Deep in the mountain, we are very poor. So poor that you wouldn't believe it."
"Did you have to starve?"
"Rather than starving, the poverty of the spirit was even more terrifying."
Wilbur did not answer and merely listened quietly.
Ivy asked, "Do you know what getting external help is?"
"External help?" Wilbur wondered.
Ivy suddenly smiled coldly, "Basically, it's something a woman has to do to maintain a family."
Wilbur frowned at Ivy.
Ivy laughed coldly and said, "Yes, it's just like you thought. The mountains are very poor, and all the men are incredibly lazy. Even in the mountains, they can't make a living for themselves. To survive, the women have to seek external help at night."
