Chapter 525: Chapter 524 Encountering

"Want to know? Then beg me, and I’ll tell you."

Jia Lanhua looked at Zhang Xiaoshan with a smile in her eyes.

When Zhang Xiaoshan saw the look in Jia Lanhua’s eyes, he suddenly felt something was amiss.

Was this a test?

"Heh, say it or don’t, it’s Luo Meili’s private matter. I only talk business with her. If you don’t want to talk, forget it, I’m going back."

Zhang Xiaoshan put on an indifferent expression and was about to leave.

"Oh come on, you stingy thing. I was just joking with you. Why are you getting angry? I’ll tell you, isn’t that enough?"

"I definitely don’t want to hear it, so please don’t say,"

Zhang Xiaoshan kept shaking his head but conveniently leaned against the wall and stayed put.

"Hmph, you little sly fox, are you trying to play hard to get? This time I must find solid evidence of you and Luo Meili."

She thought slyly to herself and then began explaining to Zhang Xiaoshan.

"Luo Meili has a habit. Around every lunar Mid-Autumn Festival, she would go to the provincial city for a few days."

"Why’s that?"

Zhang Xiaoshan asked with a curious face.

Jia Lanhua replied.

"For her man. Luo Meili’s man died in a traffic accident in the provincial city. Although they weren’t married for long and didn’t really have deep feelings, they were still husband and wife. Meili is quite a sentimental and righteous woman. During the days of her husband’s memorial each year, she goes to a place called the Green Dragon Temple in the provincial city to pray for his soul."

"Oh."

After listening to Jia Lanhua’s explanation, Zhang Xiaoshan’s expression grew somewhat gloomy.

He was jealous.

"Giggle, Little Shan, why do I see that something’s off with your face? Are you feeling sour on the inside?"

"Hey, why are you getting worked up over a dead man?"

Jia Lanhua teased with a mocking tone, feeling incredibly delighted inside.

"Why would I be bothered? As I’ve said, my relationship with her is strictly professional. Besides, what’s wrong with her commemorating and praying for her deceased husband? I think it’s perfectly normal. Alright, I’m leaving."

Zhang Xiaoshan spoke lightly, but inside he felt really uncomfortable.

He immediately left Wu Damming’s house.

"Giggle, you actually have times when you’re down because of a woman."

Watching Zhang Xiaoshan depart in a daze through the window, Jia Lanhua was thrilled. The irritation from those two slaps seemed partly avenged.

But then her thoughts shifted and her excited expression drooped.

"That’s not right. Zhang Xiaoshan’s sudden moodiness, does it mean that in his heart, Luo Meili holds a significant place?"

"What am I, then? Am I just a tool for Zhang Xiaoshan to vent on when he’s bored?"

As she carefully thought about it, it seemed that Zhang Xiaoshan really hadn’t done much for her.

Let alone being emotionally down for her sake.

The most they had was a physical relationship.

If she had to pick a word to describe their relationship, it would be ’friends with benefits’.

"Fine, so be it, Luo Meili. I considered you a best friend, but you were secretly competing with me for a man. Just wait, your time will come."

She fumed internally.

...

"Sister-in-law, open the door."

Zhang Xiaoshan stood outside the gate and knocked on the tightly closed door.

These days, his sister-in-law had been kicking him out, but today was a rare opportunity. He had to stay.

He hoped to use this chance to reconcile with his sister-in-law and enjoy her favor again.

"Why have you come back?"

Yu Xiuxiu opened the door for Zhang Xiaoshan, surprised and pleased to see Zhang Xiaoshan standing outside.

She often missed him quietly, thinking about letting Zhang Xiaoshan come back but couldn’t bring herself to say it.

With Zhang Xiaoshan coming home tonight, she was overjoyed.

"Tonight, Daming is sleeping in the infirmary, so I don’t have a place to stay."

"Let me stay at home, right? Xu Jing is gone, so there’s a room available."

Zhang Xiaoshan looked at Yu Xiuxiu with hopeful eyes.

Yu Xiuxiu missed Zhang Xiaoshan too.

She readily agreed.

"Okay, then stay at home for now. Once Daming leaves, you can move back to the infirmary."

"Alright, sister-in-law, your word is my command."

Zhang Xiaoshan entered the yard.

"Sister-in-law, I’m hungry."

Zhang Xiaoshan hurried toward the kitchen.

"Hey, hold on,"

Yu Xiuxiu suddenly remembered something and urgently called out to Zhang Xiaoshan, but it was too late.

Zhang Xiaoshan pushed the kitchen door open and barged in.

On the kitchen floor, there was a huge plastic basin. Shen Xinhe was standing stark naked in the basin, using a towel to wipe her body.

When Zhang Xiaoshan entered, Shen Xinhe was stunned, standing still, gaping in shock.

She was all wet, with her hair draped to one side, busy scrubbing her hair, which was covered in white foam, revealing her skin in all its unobstructed glory.

The Renewing Cream had worked its magic.

The scars on her body had faded away, leaving behind only slight, hardly noticeable marks. It was virtually insignificant. Moreover, the cream had made her skin even finer, fairer, and smoother, delicate to the touch.

Nearing thirty, Shen Xinhe’s face now had the softness of baby skin, as if she was a tender fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl.

Pure.

Beautiful.

Full.

Milky.

At this moment, Shen Xinhe looked even more beautiful than the first time she met Zhang Xiaoshan.

Zhang Xiaoshan’s mouth watered at the sight.
