The CEO's Wife Is Super Charming

Chapter 37

Chapter 37: Chapter 36: Day 1

——South City.

Jiajia Community.

This is considered the most rundown community in South City. Auntie Nian rushed out of one of the buildings.

Her wrinkled eyes were brimming with tears, clutching an old-fashioned keypad phone in one hand and holding onto her canvas bag while running out.

She didn’t stop until she reached the plaza near the public security bureau. She sat down on the concrete steps, panting for breath.

This run had lasted two hours. Her back was drenched, and even her hair was disheveled from running.

She was illiterate and didn’t know how to take the bus, so she could only ask for directions while running. Gazing at the distant public security bureau, her cloudy eyes seemed lost.

Suddenly, she felt a bit of despair.

Having lived most of her life, the changes between the city and their rural area had become far too significant.

Getting up, she continued walking towards the public security bureau, her thin legs wobbling inside the not-so-wide gray pant legs, still tightly clutching her keypad phone and protecting her canvas bag.

First, she looked up at the big characters of the public security bureau. She couldn’t recognize the words, only confirmed by the symbol she saw.

"I want to report a case, young man, I want to report a case." Auntie Nian grabbed the hand of a police officer, pleading in her eyes.

"Oh dear! Ma’am, don’t worry, come with me." The officer saw Auntie Nian’s urgency and hurriedly led her inside.

An hour later, Auntie Nian came out from the public security bureau and started heading back.

She returned to the community, back to her rented room, just a small space two meters long and one meter wide.

In the corner was a sack of dried buns and a bucket of tap water. On the floor were some clothes and a faded, gray blanket.

She had picked up this blanket next to a garbage bin.

With dusk approaching outside, she ate a dry bun, drank two mouthfuls from the bucket, rested for a bit, then took her canvas bag and a tarpaulin bag out the door.

During the day, she wasn’t allowed to rummage through garbage bins for bottles, so she changed to doing it at night, with the scrap collectors just across the community.
