Mentioning Zhang Sanshan, Beisisi’s entire demeanor changed, becoming even more domineering. She raised her chin, looked at Luo Xudong, and said, "She’s been married and widowed a man, everyone in the village knows it. Now give her two slaps for me, and I’ll have my fiancé find you a good job!" Luo Xudong was wearing a Zhongshan suit, usually worn by either old people or those who like to pretend to be classy. Now, rich people in the city wear suits, just like her Sanshan, who looks so handsome in a suit! Widowed a man? Everyone in the village knows? If Luo Xudong was previously indifferent, he now turned icy. Not only was his expression cold, but his deep eyes could also freeze a person. "The whole village says this?" Luo Xudong’s voice was low and frigid. Beisisi was thoroughly immersed in her thoughts of how impressive her fiancé was, known by many in Qingzhou Town. Although she felt Luo Xudong’s reaction was somewhat off, she only briefly thought about it. "Yeah, would I lie about something ? Just ask around the village, and you’ll find out." Beisisi said, raising her chin. "Sisi, who are you talking to? Oh wow, isn’t this Mr. Zhou?" A man, who was initially walking, jogged over when he saw Luo Xudong standing there. "Mr. Zhou, what are you doing here? And who is this?" The man glanced at Luo Xudong, and when his gaze landed on Beisitian, his eyes lit up. What a beautiful girl! Seeing his look, Luo Xudong’s eyes narrowed slightly. If Ma Jian Country were here, he would know that whenever Mr. Zhou showed such a dangerous look, someone was bound to be in trouble! Beisisi could ignore others’ attitudes but not Zhang Sanshan’s, because staying in Qingzhou Town was thanks to Zhang Sanshan’s favor; otherwise, they wouldn’t have been able to survive the year. She obviously noticed that Zhang Sanshan’s attitude toward the man in front was unusual, could even be described as fawning, and her expression slightly changed. "You know her?" Luo Xudong glanced at Beisisi, asking Zhang Sanshan. Zhang Sanshan, seeing Luo Xudong’s somewhat impolite attitude, couldn’t decipher his meaning. Was there a conflict just now? "She, she’s a friend’s younger sister, Mr. Zhou, you are...?" "So, she’s a younger sister." Luo Xudong’s tone was calm, without a trace of fluctuation, causing Zhang Sanshan to tense. The head of the Jishi Group was known for his cold disposition, and Zhang Sanshan could never fathom his temper from the beginning. With his demeanor now, he was even more baffled. "Mr. Zhou, do you know Sisi?" Zhang Sanshan uncertainly asked. Luo Xudong gave a faint smile, "I don’t." With that, he left with Beisitian. Zhang Sanshan watched them leave, bewildered. What does this all mean? Beisitian looked at Luo Xudong’s frosty profile and couldn’t help but ask, "What are you trying to do?" Luo Xudong slightly turned his head, looking at Beisitian in front of him, suddenly feeling a sharp pain in his heart. His ’death’ not only heavily impacted his family but also caused harm to Beisitian, through and through. Though he had thought about it, when he truly saw and heard it, he couldn’t help but feel deep guilt and pain. "I’m sorry!" Luo Xudong’s voice was obscure and deep. Beisitian was slightly moved, looking at him without speaking for a long time. Realizing his emotions were somewhat out of control, Luo Xudong calmed down a bit, then said, "I’m sorry, it was my fault earlier that caused the conflict with the young girl." Beisitian remained silent. She knew that the ’sorry’ he just said was not for that reason. "It’s getting late; you should go back." When speaking to Beisitian, Luo Xudong’s demeanor softened significantly, losing the previous icy indifference. Beisitian nodded slightly, "No need to dwell on it." After speaking, she left, leaving Luo Xudong standing there in a daze. Were her words meaningful, or did she know something? Over the years, Beisitian’s days must have been tough, yet he could only watch helplessly. He was an unfilial son and an incompetent husband. Previously, he had been somewhat jealous of ’Zhou Jiren,’ but now he bitterly realized he had no right to feel sour or disheartened. The next day, Ma Xiaoling saw a shadow rushing in from behind the counter. Looking up, she found it was Sun Qinglian, who alternated shifts with her. "Aren’t you off today?" Ma Xiaoling was slightly surprised, as they alternated resting, taking a day off each week. "Xiaoling, you wouldn’t know, there’s big news on Shui Feng Road!" Sun Qinglian appeared excited. "What big news?" Ma Xiaoling’s gossip radar instantly lit up. Sun Qinglian took a sip of water, sat down, and said, "Do you know Zhang Sanshan? He’s a small head at Yuanheng Pharmaceutical. Who would have thought he kept a mistress in a house on Shui Feng Road! Today, his wife brought their two sons to confront him and gave that little mistress a beating, dragging her into the street and giving her a good thrashing. Those two boys, despite being young, were ruthless, messing up the girl’s face!" "Serves her right! What’s the point in ruining someone’s family!" Ma Xiaoling said vindictively. Sun Qinglian nodded in agreement, "That little wench is only thirteen or fourteen, following Zhang Sanshan everywhere. Isn’t she ashamed? This definitely isn’t a girl from a good family! No good family’s girl would do this!" "Exactly, but why hadn’t there been any signs before, and suddenly they confronted him?" Ma Xiaoling wondered. Sun Qinglian shrugged, "Someone must have tipped them off. When Zhang Sanshan’s wife came, they say she brought evidence, but what kind of evidence, we don’t know." They don’t really pay attention to ’evidence’ here, and catching someone red-handed is a big deal. Zhang Sanshan’s reputation took a massive hit, and even Yuanheng Pharmaceutical might be unhappy with him now. "And that’s not all, the little wench’s own mother also lived with them. When her daughter got beaten, she couldn’t just watch, so she fought with Zhang Sanshan’s wife. It was a chaotic scene; they both tore each other’s clothes, even exposing their undergarments!" Sun Qinglian covered her mouth, laughing. "Oh my, if the little wench was alone, it could be said she was naive, but her own mother, seeing her daughter destroy someone’s family, not only didn’t stop her but joined in the enjoyment! That woman really has no shame!" Ma Xiaoling couldn’t help but exclaim. "Totally, if you ask me, it was the mother’s doing because what does a thirteen or fourteen-year-old know!" Sun Qinglian spat. ᴛʜɪs ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀ ɪs ᴜᴘᴅᴀᴛᴇ ʙʏ 𝙣𝙤𝙫𝙚𝙡✶𝙛𝙞𝙧𝙚✶𝙣𝙚𝙩 Passing by, Ma Jian Country heard the two girls talking outside and secretly wiped his brow. He had advised not to disturb Mr. Zhou’s mood, but hadn’t they just stepped on a landmine! This event was orchestrated by Mr. Zhou himself; not sure how Zhang Sanshan offended him, but Mr. Zhou seemed to have intervened in Yuanheng Pharmaceutical, making Zhang Sanshan’s life there soon unbearable!
