Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander novel Chapter 18

Chapter 18 - 18 A False Alarm

Sun Chan felt as if she had been electrocuted, and all the hairs on her body stood up. She sat up straight away, nervously looking in the direction of the yard. It sounded like Sun Lijuan's voice. Could it be that she had come looking for her?

"I came all the way here, are you still pretending to be dead? Come out!"

Sun Chan's heart was pounding. Was it Sun Lijuan herself, or did she bring a lot of people with her? Was she going to be taken back tonight?

Wang Dan and a few other girls had been woken up by the commotion. Upon hearing the voice, Wang Dan quickly became alert too, pulling on her clothes and heading outside.

Sun Chan also packed up her things a bit: "If things don't work out, I'll leave. I can't let you be troubled, I can just jump out from the small courtyard at the back."

Wang Dan shook her head and said, "I won't let her in, this is my place. Can she just come as she pleases?"

"But..." Sun Chan didn't want to burden her, but Wang Dan was completely unconcerned and firmly held her hand.

The woman outside continued to smash the door: "Damn bastard! I just finished my night shift, and you can't even come to pick me up? Are you looking to die?"

It turned out to be the neighbor woman. From the sound of it, her husband was drunk and hadn't come to pick her up from her night shift, so she was throwing a fit outside.

It was actually a false alarm, but Sun Chan was startled into a sweat. It felt as if all her strength had been drained away, and she leaned against the wall.

Wang Dan held her hand: "Don't worry, it's not her, everything's fine."

Sun Chan let out a bitter smile. She thought, although nothing happened today, there was no guarantee that such a thing wouldn't happen in the future, and she would continue to burden Wang Dan.

Lin Hongmei leaned against the doorway, half smiling. She was already dissatisfied with Wang Dan bringing Sun Chan along, and seeing their reactions, she could tell there was definitely something going on.

She muttered: "What are you two worried about? Did Sun Chan do something she shouldn't have?"

She glanced at Sun Chan. Upon closer look, she was indeed somewhat attractive, which made her even more resentful.

"Alright, continue sleeping, what does it have to do with you?" Wang Dan gave her a look.

"That's not right. We all live together; if she did something wrong, I don't want to be implicated."

Wang Dan sneered: "And you're completely innocent and free of mistakes? Worrying about others? I can barely manage with old bedding with Sun Chan right now! One more word, and don't blame me for speaking my mind!" Wang Dan's one sentence rendered Lin Hongmei speechless. She angrily went back, covering her head with a blanket.

Sun Chan temporarily settled at Wang Dan's place. Apart from Lin Hongmei's continuous cold remarks, everyone else was pretty kind to her. However, she herself didn't want to stay there, not wanting to affect Wang Dan. She also started planning for herself, thinking about what to do if Zhao Xiuxia found her. In such a small town, it was only a matter of time.

Fortunately, on the third day, the hospital admitted an elderly lady who was paralyzed and unable to care for herself. She was staring with two cloudy eyes, calling out. She was incontinent, even worse than the uncle Aunt Wang was taking care of.
