Chapter 57: Climbing the Wall Late at Night

Youth Educator’s Point.

Yang Lin rushed back to the youth educated point with a bundle of firewood in his arms.

Song Hewei, who was waiting for firewood to cook, said unhappily, “Yang Lin, I was waiting for you to cook, why did you come back so late?”

Yang Lin ignored Song Hewei, and said to everyone with a look of fear, “Guess what I saw just now?”

Before everyone asked, Yang Lin couldn’t help but say, “I saw a group of PLA soldiers with guns taking Uncle Mai away!”

“What did you say!” Shen Xingchen grabbed Yang Lin’s arm excitedly and asked, “What happened?”

“Ah! It hurts, it hurts, let go first.” Yang Lin grimaced in pain.

Shen Xingchen realized his own loss of composure, and quickly let go of Yang Lin, and then asked him what happened.

Others also looked over curiously.

Yang Lin then described the situation vividly.

However, Yang Lin did not see Mai Sui take action, but only saw Fang Qiang and others escorting Mai Lao San away.

Fang Qiang and his men had been on the real battlefield and killed enemies, unlike the new recruits.

When they were performing their tasks, they were all full of aura.

Only Mai Sui was not afraid of that posture, and Yang Lin and other villagers did not dare to get close at all.

“You didn’t see it. The situation at that time was so scary. Uncle Mai San didn’t know what he had done. Alas…”

“What about Mai Sui? How is she?” Shen Xingchen asked anxiously.

Then he realized that something was wrong and quickly added: “And Mai Hongcai, are the siblings scared?”

Song Hewei saw Shen Xingchen’s reaction. Whether it was out of a woman’s sixth sense or various signs, Shen Xingchen’s attitude towards Mai Sui exceeded her expectations.

So, before Yang Lin could say anything, Song Hewei spoke first: “The PLA has come to arrest people, which means that Mai Lao San must have committed a crime, and he might even be shot.

As educated youth, we must draw a clear line between ourselves and all evil forces, including their families. If we are implicated, it will be no joke!”

“The captain is Uncle Mai San’s biological brother, how can we draw a clear line?” Yang Lin asked stupidly.

Song Hewei snorted coldly: “If Mai Lao San commits a crime, the position of captain will probably be replaced, and then we can naturally draw a clear line.”

Song Hewei’s words are true. If Mai Lao San is really a spy, not only Mai Xiangdong will be implicated by him and lose the position of captain. Even

Mai Xiangbei in the city will probably have to go home to farm.

The new society has been liberated for less than 30 years, and enemy spies are active frequently. The government’s attitude towards such incidents is very tough.

But Mai Lao San is not a spy, so nothing will happen.

Shen Xingchen was worried about Mai Sui, afraid that she would have wild thoughts, and finally couldn’t help but quietly went to Mai Sui’s house in the second half of the night.

He didn’t want to do anything at first, but he couldn’t sleep, so he wanted to go see Mai Sui and secretly send some money by the way, maybe it would be useful.

But just as he climbed up the wall of the other party’s house, he saw Mai Sui sitting alone on a hammock in the yard thinking about life.

The two of them happened to make eye contact.

The scene suddenly became a little awkward.

Shen Xingchen was stunned and lay on the wall in an extremely weird posture, not daring to move.

He was so anxious that he was sweating profusely, fearing that Mai Sui would misunderstand him as a pervert.

But he seemed unable to explain his current state.

He couldn’t say that he couldn’t sleep in the middle of the night, so he went out for a walk, and then wandered over someone else’s wall.

Shen Xingchen wanted to dig a hole in the wall and crawl in.

Suddenly, someone’s dog barked wildly, and Shen Xingchen was so scared that he accidentally fell off the wall and fell into Mai Sui’s yard.

Fortunately, the wall of Mai Sui’s house was not high, so he wouldn’t die or get hurt.

But Mai Sui was sitting in the middle of the yard at this moment, looking at him leisurely.

Shen Xingchen stood awkwardly in the corner, his forehead covered with cold sweat.

His smart brain seemed to have crashed at this moment. After thinking for a long time, he finally uttered: “I am sleepwalking, do you believe it?”

As soon as the words came out, Shen Xingchen was already crazy, Ah ah ah ah!!! What the hell am I talking about!!!

Mai Sui was originally a little depressed, but suddenly she was amused and said very cooperatively: “Yes, I believe it.”

Shen Xingchen was so embarrassed that he wanted to die.

Suddenly, Mai Sui waved at him and said in a low voice: “Come here.”

Shen Xingchen remembered that Mai Sui touched his head yesterday. At that time, the other party also had the same tone and the same action.

After hesitating for a few seconds, Shen Xingchen still walked over and squatted in front of Mai Sui very consciously.

As long as she wanted, as long as she stretched out her hand, she could touch his head like yesterday.

Mai Sui raised an eyebrow, then, obediently placed her hand on Shen Xingchen’s head and grabbed his soft and fluffy hair twice.

Shen Xingchen lowered his head and eyes, looking obedient, but he was very nervous inside, not knowing how to react.

The hand on his side tightened, unconsciously stroking the corner of his clothes.

His cheeks and ear tips turned red, his Adam’s apple moved slightly, and his breathing became cautious.

For a moment, he seemed to have lost all five senses, and all his attention was focused on the little hand on his head.

He could even feel the temperature from the other person’s palm, which was a little hot, and it made his heart tremble inexplicably.

After a long time, he found his voice and whispered softly: “Uncle Mai San will be fine, don’t worry too much.”

Shen Xingchen thought Mai Sui was not sleeping so late because she was worried about Uncle Mai.

Then, he took out a handkerchief from his body, which contained two hundred yuan.

This was all the cash he had on him, and the rest was in the bank.

“Take this money first and see if you can find someone to help you. If it’s not enough, tell me.”

Mai Sui paused, and a strange feeling flashed through her mind.

From childhood to adulthood, she has always been the one to bear everything alone, and she has also spent money on others, and no one has ever given her money.

Little Brother A: Boss, you are rich and you are not short of money!

Little Brother B: It is more convenient to give weapons directly than to give money!

Little Brother C: That’s right! Isn’t it an insult to you to give money? Who are you looking down on? It’s just these two stinky coins, and it’s rare to give them!

Mai Sui: It seems to make sense.

So, the strange feeling that had not been captured in time was strangled in the cradle.

“I have money, I don’t need it.” Mai Sui refused domineeringly.

“You don’t have to be polite. Anyway, this money is here and I can’t use it for the time being. You can use it for emergency.”

After that, Shen Xingchen put the handkerchief directly on the square stool beside him.

Mai Sui was about to refuse when Mai Hongcai’s voice suddenly came from the room: “Sister, is that you?”

He was awakened by the barking of the dog just now, and then he heard someone talking in the yard, so he woke up completely.

When Shen Xingchen heard Mai Hongcai’s voice, he was so scared that he jumped up from the ground like a spring.

Then he said “I’m leaving first” and quickly jumped over the wall and disappeared into the night.

The handkerchief and the two hundred yuan in it were still lying quietly on the stool.

Mai Hongcai came out of the room and saw his sister sitting in the yard.

“Sister, what are you doing? You’re not sleeping so late. You scared me. I thought there was a thief in the house.”

Mai Sui put away the handkerchief and glared at Mai Hongcai unhappily: “Go to sleep!”
