Chapter 508: Chapter 509: You Can Go, No Need to Come Anymore

Li Fugui agreed to Chu Lian’s suggestion. Faced with a debt of fifty thousand taels, he had no choice but to cooperate with his family’s enemy, Chu Lian.

Moreover, for him, this was perhaps an opportunity to take advantage of the situation to search for Xiaotian.

"Brother Chu, when do you propose I set out?"

"The sooner the better, I will arrange for someone to go with you."

After finishing his sentence, Chu Lian glanced at Wang Xiangxiang. Seeing that he was looking at her, she said softly, "Despicable villain."

Chu Lian was at a loss for words. Let him be despicable then, his priority was to get Li Fugui out of the way. He felt a little joy—this round was his win.

Seeing that the matter was nearly settled, Li Fugui got ready to leave. He needed to deliver meals to the female workers. "I’m off to deliver the meals to the women. You all go ahead and take the food inside to eat."

Li Fugui picked up the food and went to deliver it to the female workers, and Xiaoxiao also left, needing to call the children to eat.

Wang Xiangxiang, with the remaining food, left the kitchen to head indoors, but as soon as she stepped out, she witnessed a scene that infuriated her.

Li Fugui, after delivering the food, was followed by a female worker who shyly handed Li Fugui an Embroidered Pouch, blushing and then turning to run away before Li Fugui could call out to her.

The entire process was witnessed by both Wang Xiangxiang and Chu Lian.

Chu Lian was thinking—did Li Fugui really have such great charm, that even a female worker was smitten with him? He couldn’t help but touch his own face, wondering if his charm had faded.

As he was contemplating this, he saw Wang Xiangxiang thrust the food at him with a very unpleasant tone, "Hold this."

Chu Lian had no choice but to take the meal from Wang Xiangxiang’s hands, not understanding where this anger of hers was coming from, since she always seemed to look at him that way.

Wang Xiangxiang approached Li Fugui, snatched the Embroidered Pouch from his hand without a word, and called out the female worker.

After tossing the Embroidered Pouch back to the female worker, she pulled out two taels of Silver from her pocket and threw it at the worker as well, speaking dominantly, "You may leave, no need to come back."

The little female worker was startled by Wang Xiangxiang’s actions and began to cry softly, "Shopkeeper Wang, I won’t dare to do it again."

"Too late. If you don’t focus on your work and pull these stunts, you’d better leave now and not let me see you again." Wang Xiangxiang was truly furious. Li Fugui and Xiaotian were fine individuals, and she wouldn’t allow anyone to seduce Li Fugui.

"Shopkeeper Wang, please, I won’t dare again, don’t send me away."

Wang Xiangxiang continued in a severe tone, "Leave immediately, and don’t make me get someone to chase you away."

Seeing the situation, Li Fugui also pleaded, "Miss Wang, let it be; I’ll be leaving soon anyway."

Wang Xiangxiang turned back and glared at Li Fugui, "That doesn’t make it okay."

The little female worker, seeing no chance of reprieve, ran away crying.

Li Fugui shook his head, marveling at Miss Wang’s fierce temper. Yet, this might be for the best, as she had helped shield him from unwanted attention.

Seeing Wang Xiangxiang’s reaction, Chu Lian’s face turned very dark. Was she not declaring to everyone that Li Fugui was hers and off-limits to anyone else’s aspirations?

Was Li Fugui really that remarkable, deserving her intense attitude? In his heart, Chu Lian felt a stroke of relief, thankful that he had managed to send Li Fugui away, or who knows what might have transpired between the two?

After returning, Wang Xiangxiang took the meal from Chu Lian’s hands, "Come on, let’s go back inside to eat."
