Chapter 15: Follow my rules (1)
Translator: Guy Gone Bad
Without hesitating for a second, Xiaohua helped Ji Wujin ran all the way out of the woods. Finally they could stop and catch a breath. Ji Wujin said with her dry throat,

“Oh my god. I have to take a break.”

Xiaohua helped her sit down by a big tree. They were relieved to see farmers in the field.

“There are farmers working in the field. It would be fine to take a break.”

Ji Wujin nodded. She was under a lot of pain all over her body because that man kicked her, pinched her neck and dropped her from high. There were a large amount of bruises around her neck. It looked like she just had cupping therapy.

“Ouch…”

“Ma’am, you…”

She looked around with tears in pain,

“Ma’am?”

“Ur… Sister…”

“You almost got me killed! You know!”

Xiaohua looked at Ji Wujin confusedly. She circled around her and asked with doubts, “do you know me?”

Ji Wujin went silent. Should she tell her that she had become a different person or not? Although Xiaohua was her best friend, she was not sure if she could tell on her because she was easily scared. Like the way she abandoned her just now when they were in danger.

Thinking of this, Ji Wujin said, gritting her teeth, “of course I know you. You think you begged for food from me for nothing?”

Xiaohua didn’t expect such an answer,

“so that’s why.”

It was true that she and Ji Wujin used to beg food from this woman but she never chased them before.

“Why did you chase me? What do you want from me?”

Thinking that she was a procuress, Xiaohua put up her guard.

It was a hard question to answer. If Ji Wujin told her, “you can have a better life in the brothel”, she might be scared to run. Giving it a through thought, Ji Wujin came up with a better answer,

“Where is your little pal who used to beg food with you? Is she dead?”

Tears came out of Xiaohua’s eyes all of sudden,

“How did you know?”

Ji Wujin felt a pain too as she saw Xiaohua crying,

“Don’t cry. Don’t cry. She asked me to take care of you before she died. Don’t beg for food and you can join us as a maid. Don’t worry. I assure you that you don’t need to entertain men.”

Xiaohua was surprised, with tears in her eyes,

“Really?”

She couldn’t believe that such a good thing could happen to her. As Xiaohua was interested, Ji Wujin nodded,

“Really.”

Thinking of what Xiaohua just said, she confirmed, “is she really dead?”

Xiaohua started to cry again,

“She was buried nearby. Do you want to have a look?”

“Well, I am fine with it.”

Dragging her heavily-injured body and being supported by Xiaohua, Ji Wujin struggled to come to a nearby hillside and saw a newly-built soil pile. Was it where her body was buried?

Was it the first time ever to pay a visit at someone’s own grave? Thinking of this, Ji Wujin felt creepy. She dragged Xiaohua away.

On their way back home, Ji Wujin couldn’t help but sigh helplessly. She was completely Hua Wujiao in the future. There was no Ji Wujin in the world.

It was lunch time when they were back to Xiaoxiang Lou. Ji Wujin sensed something wrong the moment she walked into the gate. As she walked further inside, she felt the pressure get higher. It was not right! something was wrong!

Despite a bad feeling in mind, she pushed open the door to the backyard. A crowd of women were standing in the yard.
