"When I was very young, my parents died, and I was sent by relatives to the county theater troupe to dance and perform. I found the dream I passionately loved, but the good tis didn’t last long. Soon after, my master passed away, and they brought in a new theater manager, a hypocritical beast. He, he threatened with work and physical force and forcefully took my virginity when, when I was only sixteen or seventeen years old, sob, sob, sob..."
"It was because of this that I was filled with fear of the outside world. After the troupe disbanded, I didn’t dare go out and make my way in the world, so I ended up marrying that old man Wu Damming. Who knew, he, he was also fooling around outside, sob, sob..."
Jia Lanhua curled up, crying very sadly.
Zhang Xiaoshan frowned, showing a hint of pity.
No wonder Jia Lanhua was so fierce and difficult.
So that was it.
"What about that beast?"
Jia Lanhua, with tears in her eyes, said pitifully.
"I, I don’t know, after that I just wanted to stay as far away from that beast as possible, how would I go about finding out his news," Zhang Xiaoshan said with certainty.
"Sister Lanhua, you are my woman now. To bully you is to bully ; even the things from before, I rember them," Zhang Xiaoshan said decisively.
"Whenever you get any news about that beast, just tell . I will definitely help you seek revenge," he added.
"Um, thank you, Little Shan," she said.
At this mont, Jia Lanhua needed to trust Zhang Xiaoshan imnsely, hugging him even tighter.
Zhang Xiaoshan patted Jia Lanhua’s back, soothing her to sleep like one would a child.
When Jia Lanhua woke up the next day, Zhang Xiaoshan had already disappeared.
Touching the pillow that still held Zhang Xiaoshan’s scent, Jia Lanhua realized she had beco imnsely dependent on him.
Ti flew by swiftly.
Half a month passed in a blink of an eye.
It was now mid-October in the solar calendar, late September in the lunar calendar, and the weather had beco very cold.
The renovations at the White Dragon Pharmaceutical factory were proceeding vigorously.
The developnt of the White Dragon Agricultural Company was also very smooth. Luo ili, after all, was an experienced hand in the industry. With Zhang Xiaoshan backing her financially and with the policy support from the town manager Ma Zhiming, in addition to buying agricultural products and mountain goods during this period, they also expanded the two grain, oil, and seafood shops left by the Wang family, opening a branch in the county seat.
After collecting the goods, they selected high-quality products to sell in the county without middlen making a profit, and additionally being genuine pesticide-free agricultural products, they were of high quality and low price, selling very well. In a very short ti, it beca a star industry in the county.
News of Wu Yong’s disappearance also began to fernt in the village, but no one cared, just thought of it as post-dinner entertainnt. Even his parents weren’t too worried. A pest is a pest, and quite a few people secretly hoped Wei Bao was dead.
Construction of the school had partially progressed; the main structure was almost complete, and its outline was beginning to show.
Zhang Xiaoshan spent his nights sotis joyfully comfortable with Yu Xiuxiu, sotis secretly cultivating. He absorbed the Earth Core Green Fla stolen from Sun Heng, and using the Nine Palace Qiankun Furnace, he learned artifact refining and alchemy, gaining so insights. During the day, he treated the villagers’ illnesses, strolled around the village, and even flirted with the primary school teacher Xu Jing a few tis, enjoying a very comfortable life.
That day at noon, while he was resting at the school, suddenly soone pushed open the door.
He sat up startled.
"Damn, it’s been a while since I last saw Su Xiangi. I hope she’s not here to demand her son again..." Zhang Xiaoshan panicked.
The person who entered was wearing a light sweater and a pair of jeans, looking very charming, much younger than Su Xiangi.
Tao Qian!
"What are you doing here in the middle of the day?" Zhang Xiaoshan, seeing it was Tao Qian, let out a sigh of relief, grateful it wasn’t Su Xiangi asking for her son.
Tao Qian walked to the bed and said with a mischievous smile.
"Don’t worry, Wu Biao went gambling, and his mom went to the market, no one’s at ho, they won’t know I’m out."
"What are you here for?" Zhang Xiaoshan asked.
Tao Qian, this sly one, cunningly said to Zhang Xiaoshan,
"Last ti, you said you would send away in another month at most, and the ti is almost up. If we delay further, a new year will begin. I, I haven’t seen my parents for almost a year, they don’t even have any news of , I..."
"When exactly are you going to send away?"
Zhang Xiaoshan smiled.
"What if I said to wait a bit longer, would you go and snitch like last ti?"
"No, no, no."
Tao Qian, already subdued by Zhang Xiaoshan, frantically explained,
"You, don’t misunderstand, I don’t an that, I know I can’t beat you here, snitching would only backfire on , I, I’m begging you, have pity on . Besides, as a man, you wouldn’t go back on your word, right?"
Zhang Xiaoshan stared at Tao Qian without saying a word.
Tao Qian imdiately beca sowhat guilty and lowered her head.
"Then, if it’s inconvenient for you, I’ll wait so more. I, I’ll leave now."
She got up sowhat dejectedly, ready to leave.
"Wait a mont."
Suddenly, Zhang Xiaoshan raised his hand and grabbed Tao Qian’s sleeve.
