Qi Hong walked briskly, her face flushed with heavy excitement.
Among their generation, the most outstanding and favored by the elders was Jiang Man. Everyone saw Jiang Man as reliable, efficient in handling affairs, and knowing the importance of things. Often when relatives criticized their children, they would compare them to Jiang Man, and Qi Hong’s parents frequently used her to belittle Qi Hong.
Qi Hong lacked career ambition, had secured a director position at the publicity office through her family’s connections, and then stayed put, seemingly destined to spend the rest of her career there.
She was a pursuer of love and was quite unrestrained, having been married three times already, which made both her family and colleagues think of her as somewhat indecent.
Particularly troublesome was one marriage where she was deceived by a pretty boy, which caused a huge rift with her family. After the divorce, her family kept blaming her, saying how Jiang Man would never do such a foolish thing; despite being pursued by so many rich heirs, she remained indifferent. But there was Qi Hong, hurrying after a pretty boy...
Although that incident was long in the past, deep down Qi Hong couldn’t help but care.
She just couldn’t accept being inferior to Jiang Man.
If only she could catch Jiang Man red-handed.
Just as she reached the entrance of the village chief’s office on the second floor of the village hall, she heard a sound resembling sobs and cries.
"This, are they going at it directly?"
As a veteran in matters of love, Qi Hong recognized the sounds all too well.
She was all the more thrilled.
"Little Man, oh Little Man, you act all innocent in front of the family elders, but who would have thought you’d be so wild outside, carrying on a May-December romance, and doing this in broad daylight no less, heh heh, wait until I make fun of you."
She pulled out her mobile phone, turned on the camera, and tiptoed over to the window.
Unfortunately, the curtains were tightly closed.
Just as she was feeling down and considering leaving, she spotted a step ladder in the hallway.
"Now, that’s more like it."
She dragged the step ladder over to the door and climbed up.
Through a hole the size of an arm, made for a stove’s chimney, she peered inside.
And with that, she had a full view of the scene inside. Thɪs chapter is updated by 𝗻𝗼𝘃𝗲𝗹·𝖿𝗂𝗋𝖾·𝗇𝖾𝗍
Although she was eager to get something on Jiang Man to mock her, when Qi Hong truly saw the scene inside, she was somewhat startled.
Her worldview was collapsing.
Jiang Man was leaning forward on a small tall coffee table, her hair already completely disheveled, looking as if she had just been through a disaster.
"Is this, is this the same Little Man I know?"
"Did, did I see that wrong?"
Qi Hong was incredibly shocked.
This was completely different from the obedient girl the family elders saw in Jiang Man.
Even if she told others, they would never believe it.
First, Qi Hong felt a perverse thrill at catching Jiang Man in the act, excited to prove that Jiang Man was not the goody-two-shoes the clan elders thought her to be. But then, she began to envy Jiang Man.
"No wonder Little Man is so smitten with a country bumpkin boy; these mountain men really do have sturdy builds, going on for so long without showing any signs of fatigue."
Zhang Xiaoshan sitting on the sofa smiled at this moment.
After fully mastering the Qi Transformation Realm, he could actively sense the changes in the energy within a hundred yards. The moment Qi Hong entered the compound of the village hall, he noticed her presence.
But he didn’t panic, instead feeling a bit thrilled.
After all, if it was going to be a show, there needed to be an audience.
Particularly, Qi Hong’s rich Qi was so tantalizing.
Her figure was top-notch, too. Placed in the ancient brothels, she would have been a surefire star courtesan – sampling such was naturally a great opportunity.
Especially since Qi Hong was a city official with a family, a respectable person, there was no worry about her getting clingy.
He had been silently probing Qi Hong’s inner thoughts all along.
Upon learning that Qi Hong had started to show interest in him, he couldn’t help but put in even more effort.
Jiang Man’s body was shaking uncontrollably, her eyes dazed as she turned her head, responding to Zhang Xiaoshan.
The heated scene unfolding before her eyes set the eavesdropping Qi Hong’s body aflame.
Her current husband was no good, and he even had a woman on the side. She had thought several times about divorcing him, but feared her family’s blame, so she endured it. In truth, she had been suffering through this life as a "living widow" for more than a year now.
Being someone with strong desires, she found the past year torturous.
The scene inside was undoubtedly luring out Qi Hong’s cravings.
"This boy, he’s amazing!"
Watching the valiant Zhang Xiaoshan in action, Qi Hong licked her lips.
She took out her phone, aimed at the scene inside, and decided to record it for her own enjoyment later on.
