" Fine say whatever you want" sneered Lin Chen not wanting the girl to have the last word so he pointed at her face and snapped " Look here, miss tell a tale, you got no basket and no chopping knife, or axe. If you were here to get firewood you wouldn't be so helpless here begging someone to come and save you. With an axe used to chop firewood, you would have taken care of this man on your own if what you said was the truth, hell even this young man wouldn't try to get close to you with an axe in your hand alright? I get why you are ashamed about telling me that this man and you are lovers but that doesn't still give you a right to make me feel like a shitty person alright? I was trying to help Yu her but instead of saying thank you, you started jumping on my back like this"
Lin Chen wiped the sweat off his forehead before continuing " and I will never look at you much less take responsibility for someone like you, alright? I have a beautiful wife who is much more beautiful than you can ever be so shut your trap"
Then he flicked his hair away from his eyes and turned around, damn his entire morning had been ruined. He should have known this will happen after all women were so troublesome, why can't they all be like Su Wan? Straightforward and admit that they did what they did why do they have to blame others for their mistakes? No conscience at all, just like he thought Wan Wan was the best among all women, they all were utterly, completely bitchy!
" Hey, wait ..wait" as he took three steps forward someone sticky caught his sleeves annoying the heck out of him, it took all his patience not to wring the wrist and snap it like a twig. He hated the touch of strangers' and his temper that was as explosive as a firecracker was ready to lit up any second, did this girl think that he was a soft persimmon just because he smiled a little? He could strangle her throat with the same smile, realizing that his temper was getting out of his control, Lin Chen pulled his hand away from the girl and sneered coldly " you sure like to throw yourself at men huh? Do you want it so much? Sorry, you have to try somewhere else"
His words were vulgar as hell but he really didn't do well with women like her or women in general. How should he do that when a woman nearly killed him off, a woman he loved and cared for. Lin Chen rubbed the bridge of his nose and looked at the girl who looked affronted as heck " what do you want to speak soon, I don't have all the time to care about you got it? If you don't get it out until I finish counting to five I will leave and your time starts now - one"
The girl didn't speak. She must be waiting that he will coddle her why will he do that? And for what?
He didn't say anything instead he kept counting, it wasn't until he finished counting to four did the girl's expression turned panicky and she blurted out " I sprained my leg"
Lin Chen raised an imperious brow " and what does that have to do with me?" He was not going to touch any woman much less someone as obnoxious and ornery as this one.. his body, mind and soul will always belong to Wan Wan, to have it tainted with this piece of cockroach's shit, he won't do it.
Then he really turned around with the intention of leaving the girl to her fate but then " if you don't help me, I will tell the villagers that you tried to take advantage of me"
Lin Chen paused, let out a curse of strings that could make a sailor feel shy and then whirled around fury etched on every line of his face, he raised one finger as he gritted out " or I can bury you here what do you say, its a nice place to have a grave for yourself, right? Bamboo and everything, even your soul will appreciate the view after you die"
That made the girl shiver as she looked around seeing that he was serious, she licked her lips " you can't kill me, and neither can you kill him. He is the young grandson of the landlords from the next village, they will find trouble with you"
" Let me count how many f*ck I give" he mocked count and raised his chin smugly " oops zero, so let me just-" he took out the axe that was tied on his waist and raised it just as Xing Bengt lying dead next to him got to his feet and sped past like he was on adrenaline, not even a single strand of his hair could be seen, Lin Chen and the girl saw him leave and then they turned to look at each other before Lin Chen shook his head and plunged his axe down.
" He will tell, he will tell that you killed me"
" you just called him a hooligan, I don't think he will care what happens to you"
" but you beat him too, he will come to get revenge and killing me will be like handing your head on a golden plate," said the girl smugly …a bit too smugly, this was the expression that his sister had too when he was beaten to the ground.
He can never trust a woman like this but just as he was going to slash that girl's neck. He stopped, her blood would only stain his hands, a flicker of annoyance swept inside his heart, this woman will be too much of a trouble for him in the future, he had a feeling but he couldn't kill her.
F*ck!

" Ah, Chen you why are you here?" Fang Xiaolin who was sweeping the pigpen was surprised at Lin Chen's sudden surprise. Though the man was nice, he always kept a good distance from everyone other than his family and would never approach anyone without a reason, so she was shocked he came looking for her " do you want to buy eggs?"
Lin Chen shook his head " your sister, Fang Tao twisted her ankle in the bamboo forest go and look for her" with that said he turned around and left, not even bothering to bring Fang Xiaolin to the place where Fang Tao was. Fang Xiaolin was used to his stiff temper that could turn cold and hot in seconds, so she wasn't bothered and went to look for her sister.
And when the two sisters returned, Fang Tao's gaze fell to the Lin house where Lin Chen was massaging Su Wan's legs with a smile on his face.. she was so shocked that she stopped. The man who was so rude to her in the forest really had a wife whom he doted on? She stared at Su Wan who was eating an apple that was bright red and looked delicious then her gaze turned to Lin Chen -how nice.
If not for Fang Xiaolin who dragged her away, Fang Tao would have stayed there for a very long time watching the scene, again and again, seeing her sister like this Fang Xiaolin knew what was going on in her head " Don't do it, Tao Tao."
Fang Tao said nothing, no one knew whether or not she heard her sister.
