Stealing Your Heart Chapter 686

The chancellor was holding a live chicken and smiled. “Isn’t your friend injured? There isn’t much here to help him with his injuries, so I decided to bring him a live chicken.”

She was long used to the warmth of the villagers. However, she was still shocked when she received a live chicken in the morning. She said to the chancellor, “You should keep this for your son instead.”

The chancellor had a son currently living in another city. His son married a local lady, who was currently pregnant and due to give birth. The chancellor had reared chickens to give to his son and his daughter-in-law.

“There is still a lot left; this one is for you,” he said as he passed it over to her.

She didn’t dare to kill the chicken.

“I appreciate your gesture. However, I can’t accept this chicken. Anyway, my friend is strong and healthy. Even his skin is tough——he doesn’t need to nourish his body,” she replied. Even if he wanted to eat a chicken, I would buy and cook a dead one. I can’t bear to kill and eat a live chicken.

If I see life perish before my eyes, I will feel horrible.

“I’ve already brought it here. How can I possibly bring it back?” He said as he tied the chicken to a brick and left it at her doorstep.

After hearing what he said, she felt guilty for refusing to accept the gift as it made her seem ungrateful.

“Well, thank you very much then,” she continued.

“You don’t have to thank me. You gave me so much help,” he uttered. Right as he was about to leave, he suddenly thought of something. “You don’t have to rush back to work. Please stay and take good care of your friend,” he continued.

She smiled and replied, “I was just about to tell you that I will definitely make up for the lessons that I’ve missed these past two days.”

The chancellor waved his head and replied, “There’s no rush. Wang Wen and I can take care of things.”

With that, he turned and left.

She glanced at the chicken at the door and furrowed her eyebrows, unsure of what to do. She stepped into the house to check whether Shen Peichuan was awake, and found him staring at her with his brows furrowed.

Sang Yu was befuddled and scratched her head. She asked, “Is there something on my face? What’s wrong with you?”

Why is he annoyed so early in the morning?

He sat up straight and queried, “Do you dislike me because I’m old?”

Sang Yu suddenly thought that he was sick, extremely sick. Didn’t I already express my feelings towards him? Why is he still asking me about this?
