My Mysterious Husband

“OK.” Tianye Mu nodded. He thought he’s a little stronger than Kerry in this way.
However, the moment the police uncovered the white cloth, Tianye felt that he had overestimated himself, who then ran to vomit
with a sudden nausea.
He thought no matter how the face changed, at least the general outline would still be there, but what he had seen couldn’t just
be called a face. The eyes bulged out, with one eyeball missing and the nose was terribly big. The face was like a fermented
bread, the facial features squeezing all together.
Kerry Ye came over and patted him on the back, asking cautiously, “Is it she?”
Tianye shook his head, “I don’t know. I can’t tell.”
The policeman seemed to have expected this and said to Tianye, “Well, didn’t you just say that the deceased might be your
sister? You come back with us for a DNA test. This will be faster.”
“Okay, I’ll go with you.” After receiving the water handed over by Henry, Tianye gargled, feeling much better.
The body was quickly carried by the coroner to the car, and Tianye was ready to leave with the police.
“I’ll let you know as soon as I have the news.” He said to Kerry. The two men rarely chatted during these days, for they needed to
look for Venus during the day and have a rest after that, without a word of nonsense.
Kerry nodded, watching the police car leave.
“It can’t be Venus, it can’t...” Kerry prayed inside. If he had to choose the fact of her disappearing forever and death, he would
prefer the former one, so that at least there would be some hope that she was living somewhere in the world.
Facing her death is too cruel to him, to the child, and even to Tianye.
“Boss, it’s getting dark. Let’s stay here today.” Henry asked for his advice. If they went any further, they would have to sleep in
the open again. And they couldn’t continue once it got dark.
Kerry didn’t say anything, just nodding. Since a moment ago, he had been overwhelmed by the body carried away.
He should not be able to breathe normally until the result was known.

The villagers were still there and Henry walked up to an old man who looked quite modest and asked politely, “Hey, man. We are
from out of town, wondering if we could spend one night in your village. Do you have any extra room?”
The old man heard the conversation between them and the police just now, so he was sure that they were not bad guys. He said
with a smile, “If you don’t mind, you can stay with us. It’s just me and my wife at home, and the kids have all gone out to work, so
there should be rooms for you.”
“Thank you very much.” Henry thanked him.
The old man laughed and said, “You’re welcome. Let’s go. How many of you?”
“Five or six.”
The old man’s smile fixed, “Huh? Really? I don’t have enough room for so many people.”
Henry squinted, “Sir, we all have our tents with us, as long as there is an empty house for us to set up our tents. It’s too cold at
night.”
“Oh, well, let’s go. My house is just ahead.”
The old couple was so enthusiastic that they prepared a feast for their guests, but Kerry didn’t have any appetite. He didn’t want
to eat, but he was too embarrassed to disappoint them, so he sat down at the table and just ate a few.
The old lady, perhaps because Kerry was too good-looking, kept offering him food.
“The family has not been this lively for a long time. The children are all grown up, and they only come back during the Spring
Festival. Most of the days, there are just he and I. we’re glad that you can come.” The wrinkles were all over her face, but it
wasn’t ugly at all, rather making her a lovely old lady.
Henry saw that Kerry was silent, he helped him to keep the conversation go, “Ma’am, then why don’t you go live in the city with
the children?”
“We did, but we couldn’t get used to it. We just stay inside and we don’t know other neighbors, so we think it’s not as good as our
village. We have acquaintances here and we can play cards, chest and chat. That’s the life I want.”
A few people were eating and talking when a voice suddenly came from the courtyard, “Mr. Zhong, Mr. Zhong.”
Mr. Zhong was the man of the house.

The old man put down his chopsticks and walked out of the living room, “What’s up?”
“Hey, there are so many people here. What a good time.”
“Oh, they are from outside the town and want to stay here for one night. What brings you here?”
The man smiled and said, “Well, Gawa, the next village is getting married after three days and we would like to ask you to be the
cook.”
“Gawa? He gets married? Who would marry him?” Mr. Zhong asked in surprise.
“I heard that someone introduced a girl from another village to Gawa, who looks beautiful, but there was something with her
brain. That’s why...”
Mr. Zhong got to know right away, “Oh, well, I see.”
“Mr. Zhong, give them your menu tomorrow. Gawa family has to buy the ingredients in advance.”
He waved his hand, “I see. You guys come to get it tomorrow.”
“Okay, then have a good night.”
When he was young, Mr. Zhong was a chef in the hotel, good at cooking. Therefore, whoever had a wedding would be willing to
ask him to help.
The old lady was very confused, frowning and asking her old man, “Can Gawa get a wife in that situation? I’m afraid he’ll ruin the
girl’s life.”
“Didn’t you just hear that? He said there was something wrong with that girl’s brain.”
The old lady shook her head and sighed.
Henry asked curiously, “Ma’am, isn’t marriage a good thing? Why don’t you look happy?”
The old lady sighed again and said, “He was born with dementia, and when he loses his temper, he would beat people randomly.
After he grows up, his family wants to find him a wife, but who is willing to marry him? Now, he’ s already in his thirties. Two

years ago, his family bought him a wife, but just after the marriage, the girl ran away. I heard that it was because his violence, so
that the girl couldn’t take it anymore before running away. This time, I think, their life won’t be easy.”
After that, everyone was silent.
The night in the mountain was very quiet, and the noise of the cars couldn’t be heard. Kerry couldn’t fall asleep, so he kept
smoking in the yard. The moonlight was soft, like a layer of veil covering the earth.
He didn’t know how long it would take to find Venus, but as long as he didn’t see her, he wouldn’t stop.
The results of the DNA test worried him a lot. Perhaps when he woke up, he would get the final answer. He didn’t dare to fall
asleep.
If he really lost her, how would he continue his life? And what about the little guy?
In this world, no other woman could be his mother.
The sun was rising. After Mr. Zhong got dressed and walked out of the room, he was startled by a man sitting on the steps.
Taking a close look, he found it was the boss.
There were countless cigarette butts on the ground. When Kerry heard the noise, he turned around, with his eyes all bloodshot.
“You haven’t slept all night, have you?” Mr. Zhong asked in surprise.
Kerry nodded.
