Chapter 445: Chapter 444: Bowing Down

When night fell, the exhausted Xiue curled up in Zhang Xiaoshan’s arms like a docile kitten.

"Little Shan, can you really stay with me overnight tonight?"

Xiue asked incredulously.

Despite being older than Zhang Xiaoshan and already having been married, her emotional history was incredibly simple.

After graduating from junior technical school, her family forced her to marry her current husband. She had met him only a few times before their marriage. Not long after their wedding, her husband cheated on her and was transferred to the town by his lover, leading to their separation. It’s no exaggeration to say that Zhang Xiaoshan was Xiue’s first love.

It was Zhang Xiaoshan who let Xiue taste what it was to be a woman, who made her understand what it feels like to have sleepless nights, alone with her thoughts.

Lying in Zhang Xiaoshan’s arms felt incredibly safe.

"Of course, Sister Xiue, whenever I get a chance, I’ll come to see you at night."

Zhang Xiaoshan’s fingertips slid across Xiue’s front.

Their gazes locked, and they began another round of deep conversation.

...

That night.

The sky was dusky.

On the village trail, a strong beam from a flashlight spread towards the direction of the clinic.

A woman with a flushed face walked down the road.

Her expression was conflicted.

It was Jia Lanhua, the village chief’s wife, who had just fallen out with Zhang Xiaoshan last night.

"Jia Lanhua, oh Jia Lanhua, you are fiery and never bow your head, but you’ve been tightly gripped by a young guy. You are really pitiful."

Thinking thus, tears streamed down Jia Lanhua’s face.

She had intended to break with Zhang Xiaoshan completely this morning and to come clean with Wu Damming, but what she saw at Wu Xiaoru’s house had made her completely abandon this ridiculous idea.

Wu Damming had already cuckolded her; would he still care about her?

Might be, after coming clean to Wu Damming, and out of embarrassment and rage, he would violently beat her and then use this opportunity to divorce her, kicking her out, so he could freely enjoy his life with his sister-in-law Zhang Yulian; after all, his brother Wu Daqiang wasn’t home, so what if he looked after her?

Perhaps, he might even marry the widow Su Xiangmei.

She didn’t dare to gamble.

Once she lost the gamble, she would be thoroughly, utterly left with nothing.

Moreover, Jia Lanhua was someone with a strong retaliatory spirit. Since Wu Damming had openly cuckolded her in front of all the villagers, humiliating her, why shouldn’t she do the same to him?

No, she had to be even more venomous, more insane than Wu Damming.

Her marriage with Wu Damming was never loving, and now it was completely in name only.

Because of what had happened today, whether it was because he was intentionally avoiding Jia Lanhua or because he was too ashamed to continue staying in the village, Wu Damming had gone to the town and had not yet come home to apologize to her.

This made her completely lose hope in Wu Damming.

She wanted to retaliate against Wu Damming, against Zhang Xiaoshan.

She thought of an extremely malicious way.

She would get pregnant with Zhang Xiaoshan’s child.

She wanted Wu Damming to be the cuckold king while using this child to firmly grasp Zhang Xiaoshan.

Zhang Xiaoshan might not take her seriously now, but once she had his child, would Zhang Xiaoshan still dare to be disobedient?

And once she was pregnant with Zhang Xiaoshan’s child, what would Wu Damming do?

Would he have the audacity to disclose such a disgraceful matter?

Ha, at that time Wu Damming could only grit his teeth and swallow.

Furthermore, she had another idea similar to what Su Xiangmei had in mind.

After all, Wu Damming was getting old, he was a man half buried in the soil, and though he had a daughter, Wu Lingling, she wasn’t his biological child. Would Wu Lingling care for her stepmother when Wu Damming died?

By that time, she would be fifty years old, no longer young and beautiful like now; what would she do then?

Considering this, her situation might even be worse than that of Widow Su.

Once she had her own biological child, it would be different.

"Zhang Xiaoshan, just you wait; first, I will debase myself before you, admit my mistakes, and once my child is born, we’ll see what you can do."

Having settled on this plan, her steps grew bigger.

Soon, she arrived at the door of the clinic.

She didn’t knock but instead took out a key from her pocket.

The key to the clinic, which Wu Damming had as the village chief besides Zhang Xiaoshan.

Jia Lanhua had found it in the drawer of the bedroom.

The purpose was to catch Zhang Xiaoshan off guard.

"Creak."

The door opened.

She had already turned off the flashlight and walked inside stealthily, stripping off her clothes as she moved.

She threw herself onto the bed directly.

She didn’t believe that with a beauty in his arms, Zhang Xiaoshan could still be mad at her.

"Ouch."

The hard wooden bed hurt Jia Lanhua’s knee, and the bed was empty, the blanket cold.

Jia Lanhua, who had prepared for a loving reunion with Zhang Xiaoshan, was dumbfounded.

She turned on her flashlight and swept it around the room; not a person around, not even a ghost’s shadow.

"Nobody?"

"What the hell is Zhang Xiaoshan up to? Hasn’t he been staying away from home lately?"

"Could he, could he have gone out to cheat?"

Thinking this, her anger surged again.

"Good for you, Zhang Xiaoshan, I was slapped twice by you, and I was willing to swallow my pride to come find you, yet you actually went out to cheat."

"Am I not attractive enough for you?"

The usually haughty Jia Lanhua felt incredibly demeaned, and tears of despair fell.

She was about to leave but stopped.

"No, I can’t just leave like this, I want to wait for Zhang Xiaoshan to come back, I need to check him, to see if he has been fooling around."

Jia Lanhua climbed into bed and lay down.

Before she knew it, she fell asleep.

Meanwhile, in Widow Su’s house.

"Hush, hush, hush..."

The feigning Widow Su tentatively checked if the daughter sleeping beside her, Li Ya, was deeply asleep; finding that she was, she quietly got out of bed.

Not even bothering to put on a coat, she crouched and headed toward the clinic.
