Fortunate Wife Chapter 124

Chapter 124 – Delivering soup (1)

Li Man turned her head to the side to look at the very dark night that was outside the window . She suddenly felt annoyed . Why had she drunk so much soup for dinner? What’s more, she had been too busy with laying out her bed before sleeping to remember to go the outhouse . Truly, when it rains, it pours . It was totally Li Shu’s fault . If he hadn’t been loitering by her bed and distracting her, something like this wouldn’t have happened .

After feeling irritated for a while, Li Man decisively decided to ignore this physiological response . She would go to sleep . Anyways, once she was asleep, she wouldn’t feel anything .

However, once she closed her eyes, she felt an even stronger urge to pee .

Damn it!

Silently cursing in her mind, Li Man sat up . She couldn’t resist the need to pee . Her movement was already very light, but even so, the bamboo couch still made loud creaking sounds . Flustered, she looked in the direction of the heated bed . She was worried that she would wake someone up .

Fortunately, there was no movement from that side . She quickly got up from the couch and fumbled her way through putting on her shoes, then she tiptoed her way outside .

On the heated bed, Li Mo turned his head to the side . He was puzzled as he watched that small figure quietly opening the door and going outside .

What was she doing? It was pitch-black outside .

Worried, Li Mo nimbly got up and went outside to look .

On the other side of the door, Li Man had stopped by dirt wall . She felt conflicted . She wanted to go to the outhouse, but it was too dark outside . Moreover, even though she couldn’t see it, she knew that the courtyard was still muddy . But, if she didn’t go to the outhouse, what was her other option? Pee here? Right by the door?

Suddenly, the door opened . Startled, Li Man shrunk back towards the wall . “Who is it?”

Li Mo was worried that she would be scared and quickly answered, “It’s me . ”

As soon as Li Man saw his tall, strong figure, she had guessed that it was Li Mo . Her heart slightly relaxed . “Why did you come out?” It couldn’t be that he wanted to go the outhouse too, right? If so, could she ask him, hey, can I tag along since you’re going that way?

Li Mo also wanted to ask her the same thing . “It’s so late . Why are you standing out here?”

“Ah? I…” Li Man felt embarrassed . But, fortunately, it was very dark outside . Since she could only see his silhouette and wasn’t able to see his expression, she wasn’t too nervous . And so, she honestly explained, “I want to go to the outhouse . ”

Li Mo’s thoughts came to a screeching halt . Although he couldn’t clearly see her face because of the dim lighting, he could imagine how conflicted her expression would look when she said those words . Suppressing his urge to smile, he said in a very casual voice, “Oh, the outhouse . It’s very wet out there . I’ll go with you . ”

Li Man bit her lip and politely refused, “Ah, that’s okay . I can go by myself . ”

Li Mo narrowed his eyes and deeply stared at her . “Wait here, I’ll go light a lamp . It’s too dark out here . ”

Li Man hesitated for a moment, but seeing that he had already gone inside, she could only say, “Umm, okay then . ”

Li Mo quickly came back with a small oil lamp . The pale yellow light wasn’t able to go far, but it was enough to vaguely show the nearby spots that were too muddy .

Li Man rubbed her somewhat old embroidered shoes against each other .

Li Mo stopped in front of her and half-crouched down . “Get on . ”

“Ah?” Li Man stared at his wide back in shock .

Sensing that she wasn’t moving, Li Mo turned his head and said, “It’s not easy to walk over there . Get on, I’ll carry you there . ”

Ah, needing someone to give her a piggyback ride just to go the outhouse… Wasn’t this a bit too…
