At that moment, Zhang Xiaoshan had already started mourning for himself in his heart.
However, as the phone fell into Jiang Man’s hands and she was about to clearly see the screen,
"It shut down automatically?"
She also tried to turn it on again, but it just wouldn’t start.
Zhang Xiaoshan, seeing this, took a long breath of relief.
Heaven was truly helping him.
Just at that time, because it was out of battery, it had automatically turned off.
"It looks like it’s out of battery, ah, I forgot to bring the charger. What a hassle."
Zhang Xiaoshan pretended to sigh helplessly.
"You seem quite happy," Jiang Man said, glancing sideways at Zhang Xiaoshan.
Zhang Xiaoshan immediately denied it.
"What are you talking about, what is there to be happy about?"
"You know what’s in your own heart."
Jiang Man handed the phone back to Zhang Xiaoshan.
Then she checked the time.
"I’m going to be late for my morning meeting, I won’t bother with you anymore. I gave you half a year, but you better not do anything unfaithful behind my back; if I catch you, I won’t let you off."
Having said that, Jiang Man left the room.
Zhang Xiaoshan took a long breath and lay down on the bed.
Although Jiang Man was often gentle towards Zhang Xiaoshan, even to the point of obedience, once it involved emotional and principled matters, she became very serious.
It made sense after all; how could a lady of her prestigious background possibly choose to share a man with other women?
"But Meili has also been good to me, and so has my sister-in-law. Ah, I really need to think carefully about what to do."
"Also, I promised Jiang Man that I would grow into a towering tree in half a year. Although I now have the Dragon Girl’s legacy, I’ve been stuck in Little Village and haven’t achieved much. It seems I need to properly plan my future path."
After pondering for a while, Zhang Xiaoshan packed up his belongings.
He hired a car and returned to White Dragon Village.
Just as he reached the entrance to the village, he saw a familiar figure.
A woman wearing a floral shirt was heading towards the village dock.
It was Yu Xiuxiu, who was planning to go to the county to inquire about Zhang Xiaoshan.
Zhang Xiaoshan jumped off the ferry and ran excitedly towards Yu Xiuxiu.
Yu Xiuxiu, whose face had been gloomy, brightened with surprise at the sudden appearance of Zhang Xiaoshan in front of her.
The two ran towards each other.
"You’re finally back. I heard you were taken away by the Security Bureau, and I was so scared I couldn’t sleep all night. I was just about to go see you."
"Are you alright?" Get full chapters from 𝕟𝕠𝕧𝕖𝕝⚑𝕗𝕚𝕣𝕖⚑𝕟𝕖𝕥
Yu Xiuxiu looked at Zhang Xiaoshan anxiously.
"Sister-in-law, don’t worry, I’m fine. I was just cooperating with the investigation as a witness. Since it got too late last night, I stayed in the county, and my phone ran out of battery, so I couldn’t call you," said Zhang Xiaoshan, half-truthfully.
Suddenly, he noticed the bloodshot in Yu Xiuxiu’s eyes and the large bags under them.
"Sister-in-law, have you been crying?"
"Didn’t you sleep last night?"
Instantly, Yu Xiuxiu’s pretty face turned red.
The two of them had become involved, but since he had returned, Yu Xiuxiu had deliberately been cold towards Zhang Xiaoshan, trying to restrain her feelings for him.
At that moment, seeing her thoughts exposed by Zhang Xiaoshan, she quickly denied it.
"Not at all, just a recurrence of an eye disease."
Zhang Xiaoshan knew Yu Xiuxiu was just being stubborn, and he felt warmly at heart.
"I’m sorry, sister-in-law, for making you worried. From now on, I’ll report anything to you right away," Zhang Xiaoshan immediately declared.
Yu Xiuxiu, hearing Zhang Xiaoshan say this, felt reassured at heart.
But suddenly her expression turned cold again.
"What need is there to report to me? You should go and report to Luo Meili."
Hearing these words, Zhang Xiaoshan was suddenly stunned.
