Chapter 37

Little brother Chui, why are you here again? Are you going home? The coachman laughed. He was always happy to see Chui Yim. Nope, Im going to my friends home this time. Its West of Borneon, Chui Yim answered politely as he pulled Lam Ming onto the coach.

This kid isnt like you! Hes a shy one! Hahaha! The coachman glanced at Lam Ming, laughing.

Yeah, I do have thicker skin. Chui Yim nodded in agreement. Thanks to their deal, Chui Yim only paid ten silver taels for the trip.

Watching Chui Yim spend the ten silver taels, Lam Mings eyes showed pain under his fringe. He pulled Chui Yim over and whispered, Brother Chui, I dont understand what you said about time being money, but I know that the ten silver taels you just spent was real money! It isnt too tiring to walk, and we wont waste money either.

Kiddo, thats not true.

The coachman said as he directed his hardyhorse west. He was obviously skilled as the transition was smooth. Look, youre saving two hours for just ten silver taels, four if you count the both of you. Not just that, but youre paying for my service too, and you can do anything you want on the wagon. For young brother Chui, he usually reads, rests or cultivates on his way home, which is something that you cant do if you walk.New novel chapters are published on

My partner needs food too. The coachman laughed, patting his hardyhorse. Both of us need food and shelter, and ten silver taels really isnt much.

Chui Yim smiled thinly at the coachmans words, while Lam Ming went deep into thought. After realising that he saw Chui Tin as a father, Chui Yim now saw Lam Ming as a true friend after his company yesterday. As friends, Chui Yim felt that he should impart some of his matured mindset to him. But since everyone had a different set of values, Chui Yim only brought up the idea and left Lam Ming to think about it himself.

Who knew if Lam Ming might conclude something different from him?

But that will be his choice to make.

There was a white path made of crushed rocks among the bush that made crackling noises when stepped on. Chui Yim was amazed at the sight before him. He turned to look at Lam Ming, who looked like someone in poverty and then back at the stylish and beautiful house. They didnt seem to go well together.

Mummy, Im home! Lam Ming ran into the house, stepping on the white coloured stones. He ran so fast that Chui Yim was startled. He looked like a snail that actually had the speed of a rabbit. Perhaps he is physically strong, too?

Chui Yim followed behind slowly. He didnt go into the house but stood outside. It was a simple house that didnt even have a segregated kitchen. The stove and kitchenware were in the living room, near a big stove fueled by firewood.

It was a weird design, seeing how they put the kitchen and living room together. Chui Yim spotted two small doors in the house, and one should be Lam Mings room.

Youre back? A gentle voice rang out, and Chui Yim saw Lam Ming hugging a woman who was facing him. The woman had her hair tied in a bun, and she wasnt very tall.

Lam Ming snuggled up into her hug, breathing the womans scent greedily. Only after a while did he remember Chui Yims presence. Mother, I brought brother Chui back with me!

Oh? The woman turned around slowly, looking at Chui Yim. Youre the Siu Yim that Siu Ming always spoke about? Come in, dont just stand there. Just treat this as your home.

Chui Yim was in a daze seeing the woman. She looked like an ordinary woman, but if you looked closer, you would be able to see Lam Ming in her. She had a gentle smile that was best described as similar to the sunset: it wasnt the brightest glow, but rather one that gave off warmth.

It made Chui Yim relax.

Um Sorry to trouble you.
