Stunning Dragon Wife
Chapter 153 - 152

Chapter 153: Chapter 152

His momentary daze displeased Luo Meili.

"What, you don’t want to?"

Zhang Xiaoshan certainly did not want to. He was fond of Luo Meili, but how could he possibly give up a whole garden for just one flower?

However, he certainly couldn’t say it that bluntly, so he explained instead.

"It’s not that I don’t want to, but the circumstances just don’t allow it. Our affair definitely can’t be known by my sister-in-law, and since she’s my only relative now, how would she manage if I went off to the city with you?"

"Little Shan, you little devil, just tell me straight, is there something going on between you and your sister-in-law?" Luo Meili asked curiously, looking at Zhang Xiaoshan.

Zhang Xiaoshan subconsciously thought of the time he unexpectedly walked in on Yu Xiuxiu bathing when he came home, but he definitely wouldn’t admit to it and instead denied it righteously.

"Sister Meili, don’t joke about this. She’s my sister-in-law, how could I possibly harbor inappropriate thoughts about her?"

"Moreover, the procurement station was a business left to you by your late husband. How could you just throw that away?"

"Especially since Zhang Yulian and Wu Yong, that shameless mother and son duo, are stealing your business, would you really be okay with that?"

"I’m not stopping you from leaving, but I definitely can’t go. I must sabotage the mother and son’s plans to run the procurement station," Luo Meili resignedly sighed.

Zhang Xiaoshan was vengeful by nature.

The Wu family had already made an enemy of him, and he would not rest until they had paid a price.

Hearing this, Luo Meili sighed leisurely.

"But I’ve heard that Wu Yong now has the backing of the Wang family, the major agricultural traders of Qingshan Town. Sales aren’t a problem, and with Wei Bao opening paths in the village, and that old man Wu Damming already tacitly approving, it’s difficult for us to fight them." Luo Meili explained.

Zhang Xiaoshan said earnestly,

"I don’t believe in this curse. It’s fair competition as long as your procurement price is right, the villagers will be willing to sell their stuff to you. What difference does it make if Wu Damming supports Wu Yong? The villagers recognize hard cash."

"That’s true. The reputation of Zhang Yulian and her family is too poor. In that case, I’ll do as you say, and continue procuring farm products tomorrow," she resolved.

"To be honest, I’ve lost much interest in the agricultural trade business and had already thought of leaving this place. This time, I should have just gone with the flow and left immediately, but knowing that you have grievances with Wu Yong’s family and hardships in your heart, I stayed for you and will fight them till the end," Luo Meili declared strongly.

Zhang Xiaoshan was truly moved.

"Since you’re so good to me," he began,

and Zhang Xiaoshan then once more leaned... until the late night.

"Sister Meili, let’s leave it at that for today. Next time, next time." He said.

Luo Meili giggled.

She lay in Zhang Xiaoshan’s arms, playfully running her hair over his cheek, and said contentedly,

"Alright, but you said it. You have to come see me often when you have the time. I’ll take good care of you," she promised.

Zhang Xiaoshan nodded and started getting dressed.

"It’s getting late; I should head back to the infirmary now. It’ll be troublesome if the villagers see me once it gets light," he said.

"Go on then; I’m exhausted and need some sleep," she replied.

Just as Zhang Xiaoshan was about to leave, Luo Meili, nestling under the covers, suddenly popped her head out and asked,

"Little Shan, are you having an affair with Jia Lanhua?"
