Chapter 243: Chapter 239 What Exactly is the Treasure?【-16 updates】
——————
"Don’t be angry, wife. There will be plenty of opportunities to deal with him." Xie Jingchen comforted in a gentle voice, clearly trying to appease his visibly upset wife.
Although at this moment, he was equally angry and wanted to dispose of him directly.
But out of concern for his wife’s emotions, he had to soothe his wife. Now she was pregnant, there was no need to get upset over a jerk and harm his precious family.
The name Wang Junxuan was on his blacklist, deeply detestable!
Back then, if it weren’t for his clever wife, Wang Junxuan would have ruined his sister’s reputation, so hearing this name, Xie Jingchen sneered coldly and grimly.
Zhang Shanni mentioned it, and only then Xie Jingchen fixed his gaze on him.
Truth be told, if his wife hadn’t recognized him, he might have walked past him on the street without even recognizing him.
After all, he didn’t spend much time back in his hometown. And Wang Junxuan had left the village at an early age, so his impression of him was still from when he was seventeen or eighteen.
But clearly, the young Wang Junxuan was a skinny guy. The man standing before him now was a bit chubby, but due to his decent height, he didn’t appear fat, just moderately built.
Having stayed indoors for many years, he hadn’t worked the fields much, so his skin had maintained a relative fairness, seen from a distance, he really looked like a pretty boy!
Originally, Xie Jingchen thought he’d deal with this scumbag when he was on vacation, but here the man was, delivering himself right to his doorstep! Well, he couldn’t blame him for what was to come—
"Are they heading up the mountain?" Zhang Shanni took a deep breath, tugged at Xie Jingchen’s waist, and asked softly.
At this moment, because they were resting under a tree. From the direction of their opponent, one could only see the big tree in front of Zhang Shanni, completely unaware that there were two alive people behind the tree.
"Obviously."
Seeing that there was no one around and his wife seemed to want to stand up and look out, Xie Jingchen kicked over a large rock nearby to sit on, placed his wife on his lap so she could rest comfortably for a while, and yet be able to see what the people opposite were up to.
"Sneaky, what are they up to?" When Zhang Shanni first sat down, she was startled, but then she let it go, thinking it was just sitting on a lap, after all, the man was wholly hers.
"..."How would he know? But obviously, it wasn’t anything good. Moreover, the woman with Wang Junxuan was clearly not a good woman.
A good woman wouldn’t dress so revealingly in this temple, nor dare to provocatively pull and tug with a man on a mountain path!
Fortunately, Zhang Shanni didn’t need Xie Jingchen’s answers, she liked uncovering the problems herself.
"This woman looks much older than him, although her makeup is thick, the fine lines on her face frankly betray her age."
Seeing Wang Junxuan grabbing the woman, whispering questions, and then flicking his hand, Zhang Shanni softly mimicked his lip movements, "Where is the stuff? Where’s the good stuff you talked about? We’re almost at the mountaintop!"
The woman was currently facing away from Zhang Shanni. Zhang Shanni, with her spiritual power, could only see the front where Wang Junxuan was, but not the woman facing away from them.
This distance, chosen too cleverly, made it impossible for her to extend her spiritual power over them.
"..." Xie Jingchen paused, his wife knew lip reading?
"What stuff?" Zhang Shanni was very curious, and it would be even better if she could snatch it away. Hence, Zhang Shanni focused even more on Wang Junxuan’s lips, completely unaware of her own husband frowning at her.
"What? It’s been too long, bringing up something from four or five years ago? If there had been any treasure, it would have been dug up by others by now! I’m truly an idiot, still falling for your tricks!"
Wang Junxuan, infuriated, pushed the woman away. Then, holding his head in pain, he squatted down and glared at her, viciously saying, "You claim to truly care about me, yet you’ve landed me in trouble time and again. What on earth do you want?"
The woman threw herself onto Wang Junxuan, and then muttered something, only to have Wang Junxuan grab her by the neck—
"Damn it! A benefactor from four or five years ago, blabbering while drunk, and you believe him? You even lured me here to hunt for treasure? How blind must I be to believe you time and again?"
"Xuanxuan, you have to believe me! How could I deceive you!" The woman, feeling threatened, struggled to break free and didn’t flee but instead shouted loudly.
"It’s all over... I was thinking there really was a treasure, and we could use it to escape to another province and start anew... But now, there’s no damn treasure, and we’re being watched by Brother Fei. You ran away, how could Brother Fei not know!"
Wang Junxuan’s eyes rolled back, his mind in chaos as he clutched his head and wailed in pain.
He ended up here not because he couldn’t make it in his hometown; his dad had told him to take his younger sister and lay low—where would he dare to really go back? He genuinely feared that upon his return, Brother Fei would ’slice him a thousand times’!
On his way here, he accidentally discovered this woman’s whereabouts, and they secretly got back in touch, just in time for this rendezvous.
Now that he knew all her sweet nothings were lies, his emotions spiraled out of control—worse still, his younger sister had come along with him!
Thinking of his younger sister gave him a headache. Recently her illness had worsened; his dad had given him quite a sum of money, half of which was spent on his sister, particularly when she would endlessly mutter in delirium, "Why didn’t he die?"
He always felt that ever since the plan to frame Xie Jingzi went awry and was unveiled by Zhang Shanni, his sister began to deteriorate and was now close to not recognizing anyone!
"Xuanxuan, don’t be scared. Brother Fei doesn’t know I escaped. I pretended to be sick, and the person he sent to guard me drinks everyday, never sober... I’ll go back now, I won’t drag you into this anymore."
The woman seemed very disappointed, her reply, no longer restrained, Zhang Shanni and Xie Jingchen didn’t need to read lips to hear her shrill and discomposed yell.
"Fine, then I’m going. Don’t tell Brother Fei where I am! You, take care!" Upon hearing the woman’s words, Wang Junxuan immediately turned and left, the woman staggered a few steps behind him, not understanding what Wang Junxuan was thinking, but then hearing a noise, he suddenly turned back and hurriedly walked away with her.
"What a drama, what exactly is the treasure~~" Zhang Shanni cuddled into Xie Jingchen’s embrace, stroking her chin, she said to Xie Jingchen, "Brother Chen, Wang Junxuan, being a mere farmer’s son, why would he speak H language? The excuse he gives publicly just doesn’t make sense."
These days, a television is still a rare item, even if there’s one, there wouldn’t be cartoons from H country broadcasted!
So, for him to casually let it slip, obviously, he must’ve been frequently exposed to it; otherwise, he couldn’t have spoken it so skilfully!
"Um, wife, don’t worry about it. Just focus on taking care of yourself~~" Xie Jingchen, however, placed his hands on her stomach, soothing.
Some things, his wife’s insights are indeed unique, giving Xie Jingchen, who just took on a new task with no progress, a new direction.
"Okay. They say small people always stir up big trouble, I think he’s just like a traitor, hmph!" Zhang Shanni really disliked the Wang family, even more than the Lin women she detested!
Anyway, Lin Aihong, whom she stabbed yesterday, wouldn’t likely show up before her any time soon!
What’s most important is, she took the opportunity in the chaos to administer an extra acupuncture needle to Lin Aihong’s stomach, making a certain tube in her injured part gradually clog up— with today’s medical technology, it’s simply impossible to discover!
Before leaving, Zhang Shanni had the doctor make a legal report on that kick given to her husband, just to prevent Lin Aihong from clinging to them, hmph!
If she dares to harm her babies again, she would completely disable her!
Even though it’s a rule of law society now, the ways of inflicting pain without causing death are far too many!
She’s not the naive and sweet Shen Ma, dare to upset her, and she will make someone regret for a lifetime!
What Zhang Shanni didn’t know was, once Xie Jingchen returned to the county town, he passed on some clues and assignments to several people through a certain code.
