Afterward, Tao Qian was just about to spit it out.
"Hmm?"
Zhang Xiaoshan glared at Tao Qian with dissatisfaction.
Tao Qian obediently swallowed it right away.
"You, you’re satisfied now, right?"
Tao Qian looked up anxiously at Zhang Xiaoshan.
Zhang Xiaoshan put on his clothes and nodded.
"Not bad, get up."
"So, you’ve forgiven ?" Tao Qian stood up in great joy.
Zhang Xiaoshan found Tao Qian’s submissive appearance inexplicably amusing.
Despite having helped Tao Qian nurous tis, she had threatened him, but when he showed her a cold face, she adopted this flattering deanor.
Indeed, so people are naturally servile and shouldn’t be indulged.
He said indifferently to Tao Qian.
"Today, I’ll let it go for now, but rember, it’s you who are begging for help, if you dare threaten again, don’t bla for being rude."
Tao Qian nodded obediently right away.
"Good, as long as you’re willing to find a way to take away, I’ll listen to you obediently, I won’t dare to talk nonsense anymore."
"Alright, it’s getting late, and soone might co for a consultation soon, it would be troubleso if they saw you here, you should leave."
"Okay, whenever you need , just give a signal, and I will co to serve you as quickly as possible."
Tao Qian said with a smile, wiped her mouth, and prepared to leave.
"Dang dang dang..."
Just at this mont, a sound of gongs and drums ca from outside.
"And there were also shouts."
"Thief, catch the thief, my wife has been kidnapped."
"My wife ran away, everyone help look, please."
Looking out the window, one could see an old man with disheveled clothes and ssy hair frantically banging a copper gong everywhere.
More and more people were coming out of their hos.
It was Zhang Ercai.
"Hmm?"
Just as she reached the door, with one hand already on the doorknob, Tao Qian lowered her hand and turned back to gaze at Zhang Xiaoshan.
A pair of suspicious eyes scrutinized him from head to toe.
There was confusion, bewildernt, and even a bit of anger in her gaze.
"What are you still standing there for, didn’t I tell you to go ho?"
Zhang Xiaoshan rebuked Tao Qian, feeling a bit guilty.
Tao Qian’s expression turned ugly.
"I know the man outside, his na is Zhang Ercai, his wife’s background is the sa as mine, I’ve seen her."
"It was you who kidnapped that woman, wasn’t it?"
Tao Qian stared at Zhang Xiaoshan intently.
Trying to spot a look of panic and guilt on Zhang Xiaoshan’s face.
But Zhang Xiaoshan’s expression remained unchanged.
"You’re talking nonsense, I have never even seen his wife, why would I kidnap her? Also, shouldn’t you watch the tone you use when speaking to ?"
"You’re lying to ."
But at that mont, Tao Qian’s emotions were clearly out of control.
It was understandable.
The reason she had behaved so humbly in front of Zhang Xiaoshan was that she hoped he would take her away from White Dragon Village.
When she realized Zhang Xiaoshan might be deceiving her, she naturally wouldn’t continue to be submissive.
She looked at Zhang Xiaoshan, her teeth clenched as she spoke.
"Last night I waited here for you for two or three hours, and you didn’t co back until it was almost dawn. What were you doing?"
"Didn’t I tell you I was sleeping at ho?"
"If you were sleeping at ho, why didn’t you sleep until eight or nine o’clock, but ca to the clinic sneakily before dawn?"
"I..."
Zhang Xiaoshan was montarily at a loss for words.
Indeed, this explanation didn’t make sense.
And at this mont, Tao Qian continued to press.
"Your clothes are all wet, which is very unusual. Tell the truth, did you take Zhang Ercai’s wife across the river?"
Tao Qian was a clever woman; she quickly pieced these clues together.
She was certain that Zhang Xiaoshan was the one who had taken away Zhang Ercai’s wife.
Zhang Xiaoshan, of course, wouldn’t admit it.
"You’re spouting nonsense. Zhang Ercai is technically an uncle of mine by seniority. He’s an old bachelor who finally found a woman, why would I kidnap her?"
"Stop talking nonsense, or I really will turn against you."
But Tao Qian spoke very assertively.
"Humph, stop lying to . In this village, other than you, no one else dares to do such a thing."
"That you dared to snatch Wei Bao’s woman is the best proof."
"I..." Zhang Xiaoshan felt guilty like a thief and couldn’t respond for a mont.
Tao Qian was infuriated and continued to accuse Zhang Xiaoshan.
"You clearly have a way to help people cross the river but have been stalling . You’ve just been lying to , haven’t you? No matter how humble or obedient I behave in front of you, you never really intended to take away, did you?"
At this point, Tao Qian’s state was practically explosive.
"I haven’t. I told you, I didn’t lie to you. Besides, why would I lie to you? I really planned to help you leave." Zhang Xiaoshan was still arguing.
"Then tell , was it you who helped Zhang Ercai’s wife leave?"
Tao Qian was furious, raising her voice as she spoke.
"I didn’t."
"Fine, you won’t admit it, right? Then let go find Zhang Ercai, the village chief. You can explain to them."
With that, Tao Qian was about to leave.
"Hey, don’t go."
Zhang Xiaoshan grabbed Tao Qian’s sleeve in a hurry.
