"Do you need anything else?"
Zhang Xiaoshan turned back to ask Jia Lanhua, who was lying on the bed.
At that mont, Jia Lanhua was also looking up at Zhang Xiaoshan, their gazes t, but instead of answering Zhang Xiaoshan’s question, she asked,
"Are you upset?"
Her tone was soft and humble when she asked, clearly worried about having angered Zhang Xiaoshan.
Before, she at least had a village chief as a husband, soone to rely on, but now she truly had nothing. Zhang Xiaoshan beca her only support. Without his attention, what could a helpless woman like her do?
"No, don’t overthink it, just rest well."
Zhang Xiaoshan tried his best to soothe Jia Lanhua emotionally.
At that mont, however, Jia Lanhua sighed and said to Zhang Xiaoshan,
"Alright, I promise you, I’ll et with Wu Daming. After all, we were husband and wife."
"Besides, it’s rare that I can be of help to you, so consider this my effort for you."
Jia Lanhua lanted.
Zhang Xiaoshan imdiately replied with delight,
"Then I really thank you. I owe you a big favor."
"A favor? Are you and Su Xiangi that close? Why would that be a favor? Wait, are you having an affair with that Li Ya girl?"
"Yes, yes, it must be so."
Having figured out the crux of the issue, Jia Lanhua gave Zhang Xiaoshan a big sneer.
"I never realized, you little trickster, playing the field with both young and old, and here I thought you were an honest kid."
"I’m still an honest kid, Sister Lanhua, really, you’ve misunderstood too deeply. I am a gentleman for sure."
Zhang Xiaoshan said playfully while Jia Lanhua suddenly sighed again and asked Zhang Xiaoshan,
"Last ti you said you’d buy a house for and keep out there, did you an it?"
"Of course, I an what I say," replied Zhang Xiaoshan.
"Well then, I really need to talk with Wu Daming about the divorce."
Divorce?
Zhang Xiaoshan was suddenly stunned.
Jia Lanhua, seeing Zhang Xiaoshan’s expression, instantly beca displeased.
"What’s the matter with you, lad? I just ntioned divorcing Wu Daming, do you need to react so strongly? What, are you worried that I’ll cling to you after the divorce?"
"The things you just said were crap, you were deceiving , weren’t you? Just as I thought, n’s mouths are deceitful, and you’re no exception."
She folded her arms across her chest, pushing her assets together impressively, and turned her head towards the window, tears already streaming down.
The emotional change was too swift, too sudden.
Zhang Xiaoshan said sowhat anxiously,
"Sister Lanhua, it’s really not like that, I truly didn’t deceive you, but, but buying you a house and keeping you, and getting a divorce, those are two different things."
"I’m not saying I disagree, it’s just a bit sudden, that’s all."
"Sudden?"
Jia Lanhua replied,
"It’s not sudden at all. To tell you the truth, I had been done with him for a long ti. Our marital relationship has been horrendous, you’re not unaware of it. It’s already amazing that we lasted till today. Plus, when we got married, both sides were clear it was rely a transaction."
"In essence, I’m no different from those won bought in the village."
"I’ve always felt that leaving him, I wouldn’t be able to survive, which is why I compromised. Additionally, when the opera troupe just disbanded and I had nowhere to go, he truly did give a hand. I rembered his kindness, which is why I didn’t cut ties with him imdiately.
"But now, because of him, I was driven by the villagers to the point of suicide. I lost a life for him already; this life I have now is because of you. I belong to you, not to that damned old man."
"From now on, apart from you, I don’t want to have anything to do with any man. I want to be yours completely and cleanly."
Hearing Jia Lanhua’s words, Zhang Xiaoshan felt sowhat touched.
"Alright, this ti he’s been locked up, and he probably won’t be released. You’re still young; divorce is the right choice. Then I’ll arrange for you to et him tomorrow.
"Okay, let’s et tomorrow, but I have a question for you."
"Ask away."
"I want to ask, Little Shan, do you rely want to possess my body, or is there even a little bit of real affection for in your heart?"
Jia Lanhua was a mature woman with experience, and she spoke very directly and fiercely.
Zhang Xiaoshan’s cheeks turned slightly red.
"You’re regarded as the most beautiful woman in White Dragon Village. How could I not have thoughts about you? To tell the truth, I, I was still studying when I first saw you, and that night, I, I dreamt about you."
"Ah, you really are shaless, fantasizing at such a young age."
"Then tell , what did you dream about?"
Zhang Xiaoshan suddenly felt embarrassed.
"That, that was so long ago, how could I rember."
"Hehe, then let help you, bad boy, to recall it well."
Just having been through turmoil, Jia Lanhua began to unbutton her hospital gown once more, exposing her pale skin and the deep chasm that was so enticing.
Zhang Xiaoshan’s eyes lit up imdiately.
"Hehe, co on, you glutton."
Jia Lanhua’s eyes sparkled with a seductive light, beckoning eagerly.
