Aunt Zhang patted the dust off her body and said: ”He is a powerful escort from the escort team. Yesterday, the owner cut off her festering toes, which were bitten by poisonous insects during the summer, but they were useless when many of the herbs were tried. The worse they rot, the harder it is for them to walk, if you do not cure them, they will go along with the blood vessels, and they will lose their lives once they reach the heart.”
The Xiaowan blinked her eyes and did not say anything. So she had wrongly blamed Ling Chaofeng, he did not want to kill her, she wanted to save her.
Seeing Ling Chaofeng turning around and walking over, the Aunt Zhang smiled at the Xiaowan: ”Innkeeper, you and the shopkeeper talk slowly, I'm going to work.”
Ling Chaofeng then called her over and instructed her, ”The official ship will docked at the Baisha River Pier at night. You all should have made your preparations earlier.”
The Aunt Zhang left as well. Ling Chaofeng walked to the front of the Xiaowan as well, and the tall figure looked down at the petite person from above.
Xiaowan muttered: ”I want to …”
”Looking for your father?” Ling Chaofeng said.
”Yes, I want to look for my father. My father doesn't know anything about our marriage … ”I don't know.” Xiaowan tried her best to speak, ”Manager Ling, I beg you, please let me go.”
Ling Chaofeng's face was expressionless: ”I will send people to find your father, although you are unwilling, in the end, I am still your wife who has already become a citizen. If anything happens to me, it will be my fault, so I won't be able to explain it to your father. ”What should we do after that? We can explain it to your father when he's here, but before that …”
Xiaowan thought that things had turned for the better, and raised her head to look at Ling Chaofeng.
The gaze of the person in front of him sank. ”Before you find your father, if you dare run again, I'll break your legs.”
Xiaowan trembled, her eyes filled with fear, her face completely red.
Ling Chaofeng continued: ”Since you're not willing to be my wife, then how do you plan to return the two pieces of money that you gave to others last night?”
”Did, did you see that?” The Xiaowan trembled as he spoke incoherently: ”I, I know how to work, how about I compensate you with my work?”
”Then from today onwards, you will work in the shop until you earn enough money or until your father arrives.”
Xiaowan felt wronged, and in the end, she was choked with sobs. ”Manager Ling, will you really go find my father?”
Ling Chaofeng sized her up before indifferently leaving.
Xiaowan rubbed her face, trying very hard to not let herself cry. Seeing him walk away, she remembered what happened last night, so she jogged to catch up to him and asked timidly, ”Manager Ling, did you save me last night? ”Thank you, what happened to the mother-in-law?”
