1970s: A hot-tempered wife who accompanied a soldier to the military compound and made a fortune.

Chapter 739 I Don't Want to Be a Saint
"Don't listen to their nonsense. It's true that I forced myself on you before, but you should know how I feel about you. Just wait for me to marry you and don't overthink it."

Hearing this, Chu Xue was speechless. What kind of logic was that?

While they were talking, Chu Xue released her mental energy to see if what they had said before was true or false.

Unfortunately, the man was probably trying to fool the young girl. There was only a small box in the room containing three thousand yuan, some gold, silver and jade jewelry, and several stacks of various receipts.

She said something was missing, and it turned out that the receipt was missing.

I hadn't found any receipts at this man's house before; it turns out they were all sent here to please his mistress.

Just as she was lost in thought, the man pushed open the door and walked out of the yard: "Come back tomorrow night."

Reaching the gate, he first peeked out furtively, glancing left and right to make sure it was safe before stepping out. He whispered to the person inside, "I'm leaving. You should go back and get some sleep too. Be careful during the day and don't let anyone notice anything amiss."

As he opened the gate, Chuxue hid inside the space.

After everyone else had been gone for quite some time, Chu Xue finally emerged from the space.

She glanced into the yard and wondered: Should we take that box of things away?

Just as she was lost in thought, she heard the sound of someone climbing over the wall. She quickly looked in the direction of the sound and saw a man climbing over the wall of the neighboring courtyard into the small courtyard: "Meiyun, is he gone?"

"Ah."

"You heard what he said, what are we going to do now?"

Chu Xue was startled; she had been so careless. She hadn't checked the situation in the neighboring yard, and a wave of fear washed over her.

Then the man said, "Who would have thought that things wouldn't work out and that the country girl would escape?" Ha, I was just a little soft-hearted, thinking that since the girl was forced, I shouldn't accept the things. Later, when the man got into trouble, he probably wouldn't mention the small box of things that were sent here. I could just consider those things as compensation from the man to her.

But to my utter surprise, there was more to this story, and it was obvious that the country girl they were talking about was actually me. This was unacceptable. No matter what their intentions were, it was incredibly infuriating.

"That pervert is obviously after me. What if what he said is true?"

"Don't be afraid, I'm here. If all else fails, I'll expose all the despicable things he's done over the years, and he'll be in big trouble."

"No, no, no, if something really happens, his in-laws will definitely send people to investigate. If they find out, you'll be killed. I can't let you take that risk."

"Don't worry, this is a last resort."

"Yao Qidong is a complete waste; he couldn't even get this simple thing done."

"Should we find someone else for him and find a way to send them to him?"

“I’ve been looking for someone to handle this, but where can I find such a suitable person? They have to be beautiful, well-educated, and most importantly, have no powerful family connections so that if something goes wrong, no one will hold them accountable.”

"Didn't you say before that woman had a fiancé in the city? How come Yao Qidong still dared to make a move? Isn't he afraid that family will seek revenge?"

“Those prominent families value their reputation the most. If things really go through, they would probably be eager to get rid of a used woman. They would never stand up for her.”

Chu Xue grew angrier and angrier as she listened. "Go to hell! I left you nothing, and you even wiped out the whole neighborhood!"

I was planning to send that man in these next few days, but it seems I should postpone it for a few more days. People who want to harm others for their own sake don't deserve sympathy, and I'm not going to play the saint.
