"Very beautiful?"
Suddenly, a deep voice came from behind.
Ji Xinhe was so startled that she nearly screamed. She quickly turned around and saw a man who claimed he was too ill to get out of bed, let alone feed himself, standing perfectly well in front of her.
Ji Xinhe widened her eyes, "What are you doing here?!"
"Whatever you’re here for, I’m here for the same," responded Mu Houchu casually.
Ji Xinhe glared at him, "You clearly seem perfectly fine! You have the audacity to laze around in my house?"
"Hmm, really? Anyways, your brother and your younger brother think I’m still seriously ill, that’s enough," Mu Houchu was even more sanguine.
Ji Xinhe was so angry she was grinding her teeth. He was utterly shameless!
"Hmm, someone seems to be approaching from that side." Mu Houchu timely diverted her attention.
Ji Xinhe hastily turned her head, her eyes full of interest as if she was afraid of missing any detail.
On this side, Ji Xiulan and Wang Er Ya were fighting so violently that it was hard to tell them apart. Ji Xiulan scratched Wang Er Ya’s face, Wang Er Ya pulled Ji Xiulan’s hair, and then Ji Xiulan pinched Wang Er Ya’s arm until it turned purple, and Wang Er Ya kicked Ji Xiulan in the stomach.
As it turned out, these two women were equally ferocious.
Gao Zhiru is having the busiest time, as he could see someone approaching soon. These two women were still completely oblivious to the danger, focusing only on trying to strangle each other.
Gao Zhiru was so nervous that he was tugging on both sides, but it was of no use at all. Instead, he was accidentally kicked by Ji Xiulan and knocked to the ground.
Soon, the light of the torches was getting closer. The villagers were coming with torches!
Ji Xinhe’s eyes lit up and twinkled mischievously, murmuring to herself, "Well, now let’s see, one, two, three... nobody can escape."
Mu Houchu looked at her sparkling eyes, which reminded him of the time when he saw her after a month at the teahouse.
He had finally found her. She was sitting in the hall, smiling at him with her eyes twinkling mischievously, like a little fox.
But these was the same pair of eyes that even shocked him for a moment, who would not furrow his brow no matter how thrilling the situation might be.
She used this moment to try to slip away unnoticed.
And it was this moment that caused the very first flutter in his heart that had been frozen for many years.
It seemed that Ji Xinhe had noticed Mu Houchu’s gaze. She stared at him, "What are you looking at!"
"Then what am I supposed to look at?" Mu Houchu unexpectedly responded with such an inane line.
Ji Xinhe gave him a strange look and then pointed towards the three people fight, Gao Zhiru, Ji Xiulan, and Wang Er Ya, "Look at them."
"You’re more interesting to watch than them," Mu Houchu watched her steadily.
"Get lost!"
This was the 108th time Ji Xinhe regretted, she should have never entangled herself with this man, even if she was burning with lust!
"Oh my, what’s going on? Who’s this? Oh, my god!"
A few men rushed forward with their torches. The bright light illuminated the darkness of the grove, revealing the scene within the grove.
An almost half-naked Wang Er Ya, a disheveled Gao Zhiru, and Ji Xiulan, who was fighting with Wang Er Ya...
This was too much information at once, the villagers couldn’t process it all and were left stunned.
Gao Zhiru saw the shocked faces all around him and wished he could dig a hole and crawl into it!
His face flushed bright red. He wanted to explain something, but the scene in front of him was indeed hard to explain.
"Oh my lord, what’s become of you all?" Some of the women who were a little slower caught up. As soon as they saw the scene, they all started to scream and those with more modesty covered their faces.
"Tsk tsk, how the standards have fallen. Look at you, Gao Zhiru, what have you done?" One of the women began berating Gao Zhiru.
Although they didn’t know exactly why Ji Xiulan and Wang Er Ya were fighting, just by looking at the disheveled state of Gao Zhiru and Wang Er Ya, and the love bites all over them, it was clear that they had been up to no good!
Gao Zhiru’s face turned instantly red. Though he didn’t consider himself to be a shy person, he still had a respectable image and carried a certain respect among the villagers. He had never been involved in any scandal.
Having revealed his true face for the first time under such intense scrutiny, Gao Zhiru felt like he had lost all his face, his entire reputation had been completely ruined!
"I, I didn’t..."
Ji Xiulan and Wang Er Ya, on the other hand, seemed to have gone mad, not caring about how many people had come and were still desperately tearing each other apart.
The men couldn’t intervene because it would be inappropriate to touch a girl, especially with Wang Er Ya in such a state. Who would dare to approach?
After a protracted standoff, a few village women finally couldn’t stand it anymore and stepped forward to pull the two apart, "Enough now, enough! What a disgrace!"
But both of them were too caught up in the fight to let go easily.
Several more women had to pull them apart.
When Ji Xiulan couldn’t attack anymore, she started swinging her arms and legs wildly and swore like a madwoman, "You shameless wretch! You seduced another woman’s man, you slut, you cheap...!"
With bloodshot eyes, Wang Er Ya struggled fiercely to charge forward, but fortunately, she was pulled back by two women: "Who do you think you are? Pretending to be elegant and ladylike, but essentially you’re just a country bumpkin. No matter how well you disguise yourself, you’re still a born loser! Zhiru would rather sleep with me than touch you, you should know how much he despises you!"
"You shameless woman! He only slept with you for fun, you thought you had any real worth?" Ji Xiulan screeched.
"That’s not true! Zhiru promised to marry me! I gave my body to him, he promised to marry me as soon as he clears the official examination!" Wang Er Ya bellowed. 𝑓𝓇𝘦ℯ𝘸𝘦𝑏𝓃𝑜𝘷ℯ𝑙.𝑐𝑜𝓂
"Bullshit!" Ji Xiulan shouted, "Marry you? You’re not good enough! A cheap serving girl who’s slept with countless men, you have no shame, you harlot!"
"I’ll kill you!" Wang Er Ya seemed ready to rush forward again.
Just as the two women were about to start fighting again, the villagers hastily pulled them apart, narrowly avoiding another fierce conflict.
But from their previous slurs, it was possible to guess why they were fighting.
The villagers were shocked. The so-called loving relationship between Gao Zhiru and Ji Xiulan turned out to be a facade, and he was secretly sleeping with Wang Er Ya!
This time, it seemed, Gao Zhiru and Wang Er Ya were sneaking around in this bamboo grove. But they were caught in the act by Ji Xiulan, causing the commotion!
