"Whimper?"
The noblewoman poked her head out.
Her long hair had solidified with dried blood, and she looked nothing like a person anymore—more like a ghost of a woman who had died a grueso death.
"Oh my God."
Jia Lanhua was so frightened that she imdiately sat down on her buttocks, while Wu Damming leaned against the wall, trembling all over.
The people outside peered through the window at the scene inside and were dumbfounded.
They grimaced and said,
"Wei Bao is truly a beast. Even if that woman is an outsider, she’s still a person, Wei Bao, this..."
"I always knew Wei Bao was no good, but I never thought he could be so vicious."
"I think Wei Bao should be hacked to pieces."
At this mont, Tao Qian, Hu Qiaoling, and many other won who, like the noblewoman, ca from outside, were extrely agitated.
"Whimper, whimper, whimper."
Their words reached the noblewoman’s ears, and she couldn’t contain the grievance and pain in her heart, and began to cover her face and sob uncontrollably.
Wu Damming, who had initially wanted to smooth things over, also changed his attitude a great deal.
His gaze turned to Elder Wei.
"Is this the fine work of your precious son?"
"If the woman had stayed in your hands, she would probably have been tortured to death, right?"
Elder Wei didn’t dare et Wu Damming’s gaze and guiltily lowered his head.
Jia Lanhua, who had previously been resistant to Zhang Xiaoshan taking the woman away, now overflowed with sympathy and, sowhat reluctantly, said to Wu Damming,
"Damming, this woman has suffered too much. She absolutely can’t stay with the Wei family any longer. Little Shan is a doctor. If you let Little Shan take her, perhaps there’s still hope for her recovery?"
"That’s right, village chief, quickly let Zhang Xiaoshan save this woman,"
everyone in the courtyard cried out at this mont.
The situation had completely tipped in one direction.
Wu Damming had co to a realization as well.
"Alright, Zhang Xiaoshan, you take this woman away,"
Wu Damming finally nodded in agreent.
"No, no, this won’t do, she was bought with the savings ant for my old man’s and my coffin. You can’t take her away,"
Elder Wei’s wife cried out very unwillingly.
Feeling irritated, Wu Damming roared at the old woman,
"Alright, then keep the person. Co on, now bring out 30,000 yuan for Zhang Xiaoshan; get the money out."
Elder Wei’s wife and Elder Wei were imdiately stunned.
Where would they get the money from?
"Forget it,"
Elder Wei clenched his teeth, tugged at his wife, and said in a frustrated tone,
"Just a half-dead cripple now, let them take her away. I reckon she won’t live long, and even if we spent 30,000 yuan to keep her, she’d just die in our house, which would bring bad luck."
The old woman glanced at the woman’s severe injuries and nodded her head.
Zhang Xiaoshan didn’t waste any more words and directly carried the noblewoman out of the room, ready to leave the Wei family.
"Am I finally going to escape from the jaws of danger?"
At that mont, the noblewoman, still clinging to life, looked up at the azure sky, and a mix of surprise and vitality appeared on her sorrowful face.
"Zhang Xiaoshan, you despicable wretch, don’t think that by scheming against and taking my woman away, you have won,"
"I tell you, this woman’s limbs are all broken by , she’s now an utter cripple, and I’ve also sliced up her face and body with a knife; heh heh, even if your skills are unparalleled and you can keep her alive, what of it? Isn’t she still a terrifying monster?"
"I don’t believe you’d still be able to stomach it then."
"Hahaha, Zhang Xiaoshan, you’re just a scavenger, picking up trash to take ho."
"Heh heh heh."
Wei Bao, who had been beaten and lay on the ground by Zhang Xiaoshan, saw his woman being carried away by Zhang Xiaoshan and felt extrely dissatisfied, so he cursed and insulted vehently, seeking to vent his frustration and regain so face.
"Whimper, whimper, whimper."
Listening to these malicious words, the heart of the noblewoman in Zhang Xiaoshan’s embrace felt as if it were being cut by knives.
In the glitzy Shanghai, she had been a lofty young lady, a business star who commanded the attention of many.
Now she had beco sothing neither human nor ghost-like. Even if she survived, what good would it be?
Rather than living such a humiliating life, perhaps death would be her best refuge?
Tears of sorrow kept sliding from the corners of the adorable woman’s eyes.
Sorrow greater than heartbreak.
Zhang Xiaoshan, sensing the emotional change in the noblewoman, gently said to her,
"Don’t worry. Today, if I could take you away from Wei Bao, then I certainly have a way to restore your appearance."
"Give so ti, and I will definitely make you as good as new."
This wasn’t Zhang Xiaoshan bragging; with the help of the Heavenly Dragon’s Eye, it really wasn’t a difficult task.
At these words, a glimr of hope sparked in the woman’s eyes.
For so reason, she now had imnse trust in Zhang Xiaoshan, perhaps because she had no other choice.
At this mont, Zhang Xiaoshan turned around, holding her, and walked toward Wei Bao, who lay in the courtyard.
"What’s happening? Has he changed his mind?"
The people wondered.
"What, what do you want to do?"
Wei Bao, lying on the ground, watched Zhang Xiaoshan draw nearer and felt an intense sensation of unease swelling within.
