The sun sets earlier in the mountains.
By after six o’ clock, the sky above White Dragon Village was already dim.
The last streak of sunset lingered in the west.
Zhang Xiaoshan was standing on the hillside behind the mountain at this time.
"How’s it going on your end?"
"Almost done, just wait a bit more, Wu Yong is very cautious, I have to think of something."
"Didn’t I give you a pack of sedatives I made myself?"
"Yeah, but I still need to create an opportunity for him to drink it, don’t I?"
"You know the sacrifice I’ve made, right? I’m in a hotel with him now."
"Be careful not to lose out on the money and trap yourself in the process."
"Relax, I have seen tougher nuts than him. By the way, your village head came here today too."
Zhang Xiaoshan was startled at first, then said,
"He’s Wu Yong’s uncle, so it makes sense."
"OK, I won’t talk anymore, be careful he might hear you."
Shi Yue was about to hang up.
Zhang Xiaoshan hurriedly said,
"Once you get the money, transfer my three hundred thousand first thing."
"Yeah, yeah, it definitely won’t happen today, by the time I’m done, the bank will have already closed, tomorrow then."
"Then I’m hanging up."
Shi Yue hurriedly hung up the phone.
Zhang Xiaoshan, looking at the phone emitting a beeping tone, couldn’t shake an unsettling feeling for some reason.
He and Shi Yue were mere strangers who had shared one night of passion, but since they weren’t familiar, would she really return such a large sum of money to him?
But to get back at Wu Yong and the others, he had no choice but to go along with it.
"She shouldn’t be that cruel, should she?"
Thinking this way, Zhang Xiaoshan went down the mountain with trepidation.
Tonight, Bai Shutong was sleeping with Xu Jing, so he definitely had no chance there and had to give up that thought. After returning home and checking in with his sister-in-law, he planned to go rest in the clinic.
"Right, Shi Yue just mentioned that Wu Damming went with Wu Yong and the others, doesn’t that mean Jia Lanhua is home alone tonight?"
Thinking of this, Zhang Xiaoshan headed towards Wu Damming’s house.
Even though Jia Lanhua was a bit temperamental, her figure and looks were truly beyond reproach.
He’d take advantage of it while he could.
"Little Yue, who were you talking to on the phone?"
Right after hanging up, Wu Yong came out of the bathroom.
At that moment, he was not dressed, wearing only boxer shorts, but he still clutched the money bag tightly in his hand.
After all, it held all the savings from mortgaging their house and land—it was his entire livelihood.
Although he was a scoundrel, he knew what mattered most in such situations.
"Oh, just the friend I told you about, the one selling the house. I’ve made an appointment with them for us to buy the house tomorrow."
"Once we have a house, I’ll sleep with you every night."
Wu Yong’s eyes gleamed red with excitement.
"Then, let’s get started."
Wu Yong was eager to move.
"Don’t rush, let’s celebrate with a drink together first."
She picked up a bottle of mineral water and handed it to Wu Yong.
"Oh, romantic, I get it."
Wu Yong naively drank it down.
Then he lunged at Shi Yue.
"Hey, don’t rush, stop it."
Wu Yong moved quickly, pinning Shi Yue down on the bed in an instant.
Shi Yue struggled in fear.
But how could she be a match for Wu Yong? Her bath towel was ripped off in an instant.
Her beautiful legs were exposed, exciting Wu Yong even more.
"What’s going on with these sedatives Zhang Xiaoshan gave me, why is Wu Yong showing no reaction?"
"I’m not really going to end up in Wu Yong’s hands today, am I?"
Shi Yue tried desperately to push Wu Yong away, but Wu Yong thought she was flirting with him, which only made him try harder.
"Wu." ᴛhis chapter is ᴜpdated by 𝚗𝚘𝚟𝚎𝚕·𝚏𝚒𝚛𝚎·𝚗𝚎𝚝
Suddenly, Wu Yong grunted, then lay still on top of Shi Yue.
Shi Yue, sensing something was wrong with Wu Yong, pushed him.
Wu Yong lay motionless like a dead pig.
Shi Yue pushed hard and managed to shove Wu Yong off.
Spread out on the ground, Wu Yong was sprawled across the floor.
Having narrowly escaped disaster, Shi Yue finally took a breath of relief.
She put her clothes back on, grabbed the money bag, kicked Wu Yong, and then hurriedly ran off.
Over at White Dragon Village,
Zhang Xiaoshan had also arrived at Wu Damming’s doorstep.
The lights in Wu Damming’s Western-style house were still on.
Zhang Xiaoshan initially wanted to knock on the door but, thinking twice, instead climbed over the wall and jumped into the courtyard.
"Hmm-hmm, hmm-hmm..."
Just as he entered the courtyard, Zhang Xiaoshan heard a strange noise coming from the living room.
As someone who had been around, Zhang Xiaoshan immediately identified the sound—it was the unmistakable noise of a man and a woman in the act.
"This is bad, could it be that Jia Lanhua, angry after our falling out, found herself another lover?"
"I’d like to see who this adulterer is."
He snuck up to the window and peered in.
