章節 161: Fu Bao

The few of them stayed awake until midnight. Just as they were about to return to their rooms to rest, Furball started to howl uneasily.

It wasn't the usual reminder that someone was coming. Instead, it sounded like a warning.

Shen Yijia and Song Jingchen looked at each other and asked Madam Li and Widow Wang to bring the children back to their rooms first. The two of them followed Furball to its hole that had long been frozen by the snow.

As soon as the two of them approached the hole, they heard something digging outside the courtyard wall.

Without waiting for Song Jingchen to react, Shen Yijia had already taken a few steps forward and punched into the hole.

Snow poured out of the hole, and the entrance was revealed.

At the same time, a cry of pain came from outside. It sounded like a child's.

Shen Yijia glanced at Song Jingchen, rubbed her nose, and muttered, "I thought it was a bad person."
