Chen Erniu lay on the kang in a daze, not knowing how much time had passed.
He naturally couldn't hear someone outside knocking at the door, and even pushing it open from outside!
The visitor was none other than Wang Qiu Yue, who had brought a bag of candy to thank Chen Erniu!
Wang Qiu Yue arrived at Chen Erniu's house, called out a few times, but got no response.
Seeing the door unlocked, she tried pushing it, and to her surprise, it opened.
Wang Qiu Yue thought, since she had already opened the door, she might as well go in and see if Chen Erniu was actually home.
Even if Chen Erniu wasn't home, she could leave the candy in the courtyard.
With this thought, Wang Qiu Yue limped into the courtyard, called out softly again, but still got no response, only a faint noise coming from the bedroom next to the main room.
Driven by curiosity, Wang Qiu Yue walked into the main room, casually put the candy on the table, and followed the direction of the sound to Chen Erniu's room.
