With her lips pursed, Ye Tianxin crossed her arms and looked towards the cabin.
She needed to figure out what they had to do to get into the cabin smoothly.
Yao Qinghan stood by the roadside, bored. She picked up some pine cones that had fallen from the pine trees.
“Sister, look. Are those pine cones?”
It was getting late.
Looking at the pine cones in Yao Qinghan’s hands, Ye Tianxin whispered, “We may have to spend the night here.”
“Then should I pick up some wood to make a fire for tonight?”
Yao Qinghan was anxious when she heard that they were going to spend the night here.
Ye Tianxin shrugged and said, “Maybe not for tonight.”
There was the sound of a car at one end of the road in less than ten minutes
Ye Tianxin and Yao Qinghan stood in the middle of the road and saw an agricultural tractor driving over from a distance.
The man who had just talked to Yao Qinghan drove the tractor over and parked it near Ye Tianxin’s car.
After getting off the car and walking in front of Ye Tianxin, the man said solemnly, “h.e.l.lo, I’m Thomas. I just got a call from the Traffic Bureau, and they said that they won’t be able to get a tow truck up here for a while. I’m a volunteer tow truck driver on this stretch of road. You can rest at my farm until the Traffic Bureau sends a car for you tomorrow.”
“Really? That’s great. I’m worried that I’ll sleep in the car at night. I’m tired and thirsty, so what should I do?”
“If you don’t mind my humble farm, just come with me.”
After thanking him, Ye Tianxin went with Thomas to help fasten the chain.
Ye Tianxin and Yao Qinghan sat on both sides of the tractor, and Thomas drove the tractor back to his farm.
“Please come in.”
Ye Tianxin and Yao Qinghan walked into Thomas’ cabin. There was a stove burning in the middle of it, and a teapot was placed on the stove.
White steam came out of the teapot’s spout.
Thomas took off his hat as soon as he entered the cabin.
He said to Yao Qinghan and Ye Tianxin, “This is a wooded area. It gets pretty cold at night. That’s why I keep the stove on. Just have a seat.”
Ye Tianxin and Yao Qinghan sat on the sofa, which was covered with the fur of an unknown animal.
“Uncle.”
Yao Qinghan called him.
Thomas heard Yao Qinghan and said lightly, “My name is Thomas. You can call me Thomas. I’m not as old as you think.”
Yao Qinghan shamefully apologized, “I’m sorry.”
Thomas said warmly, “It’s okay.”
Ye Tianxin took Yao Qinghan’s hand and whispered, “You should stop watching those pointless idol dramas shows. They’re misleading.”
Yao Qinghan nodded.
The atmosphere was suddenly extraordinarily silent.
Thomas poured two cups of hot cocoa for Ye Tianxin and Yao Qinghan.
“You have some hot cocoa first while I prepare dinner.”
Yao Qinghan took the hot cocoa. After taking a sip of the hot cocoa, she put the cup on the table beside her and said, “Thomas, let me help you.”
Thomas shook his head and said, “No, thanks. It won’t take long.”
Yao Qinghan and Ye Tianxin had to sit by the fire, and they quietly observed everything here at the same time.
Everything here seemed to be normal, but if Mu Yuluo was correct, this seemingly normal cabin had some hidden secrets.
Thomas turned around and went to the kitchen in the back.
