Xuan Haixiu and Li Chengmei have no other choice. Even if there is only a glimmer of hope now, they will regard it as a life-saving straw and hold on to it tightly.

Durakan took them to the church near Houpu City, dropped the two people off, and then drove away.

Before leaving, he said to the two of them, "I've figured it out. The reason you were searched last night was because the woman you first saw reported you."

After saying this, he drove away quickly as if to get rid of trouble.

Xuan Haixiu and Li Chengmei were in deep sorrow. They came to the church with their last hope and knocked on the church door.

After a while, a priest opened the door.

The two of them hurriedly told the priest that they were devout believers of the Junzheng Sect and hoped to receive the protection of the church.

Unexpectedly, halfway through his words, the priest waved his hands at them impatiently: "Get out of here! It's because of you that we've been in so much trouble. Go away, go away!"

The church door was also coldly closed to them.

The young couple stood in front of the church door, snuggling together in the cold wind, and felt that the world was dark.

After going through so much hardship, I finally escaped here, thinking that I would have a new life, but this is the ending?

Otherwise, just die!

After death, everything is over.

This thought arose in Xuan Haixiu's mind. This was the most helpless and desperate moment in his life.

An evil thought even arose in his mind.

Wouldn't it be better to pretend not to know about the commander-in-chief and his wife and continue to stay in Prisang City?

The moment the thought came to his mind, he shuddered and then saw Li Chengmei's concerned eyes.

He raised his hand and slapped himself twice.

"No, don't do this, Haixiu! There will be a way, there must be a way to survive!"

Li Chengmei desperately grabbed his arm and stopped him from self-harming.

"What else can I do?"

Xuan Haixiu said with a wry smile.

Li Chengmei didn't say anything, but reached out and took out a gold ring from his pocket.

That was what Xuan Haixiu bought with his meager savings when they got married.

Although gold has depreciated significantly today, it can still be exchanged for some food as an important industrial material.

She handed the wedding ring to Xuan Haixiu, "Let's buy some food first! Then we can think of a solution. Haixiu, we will be fine, we will definitely be fine!"

With the comfort of his wife, although Xuan Haixiu was still desperate, his mood improved a little.

The two people used their gold rings to exchange for two loaves of bread from a bakery on the street, and found an abandoned house. They ate the bread inside while feeling melancholy about their future life.

After this meal, they really had no money left.

If you can't find a way out, you will definitely starve to death.

Looking at her husband who was haggard due to worry, Li Chengmei was filled with grief.

"If only I had died."

She blamed herself in her heart.

As long as she died, the commander would no longer trouble her husband.

It's all because of her.

She made a decision in her heart, but did not tell Xuan Haixiu.

That night, the two men slept in the dilapidated house using their sleeping bags, thermal blankets and plastic bags.

……

The next day, Xuan Haixiu woke up early.

But he suddenly discovered that his wife beside him had disappeared, leaving only a piece of text written on the ground with her finger.

"Hubby, I'll try again at my uncle's house. They might not recognize me, so don't worry about me."

There was a loud "boom" inside Xuan Haixiu's head!

He didn't expect that his wife's final thought would be the same as his.

He also planned to go to his uncle alone without telling his wife. He didn't believe that his most beloved uncle would ignore him.
