Wang Zhendong had been stunned by Sister Lan's beauty and the sensual aura of a young widow since the first time he set eyes on her!At that time, Wang Zhendong had nothing to his name, and Sister Lan's husband was still alive, so although Wang Zhendong had some ulterior motives, he dared not do anything to her.
But now it was different—Sister Lan's husband was dead, and she was a single woman, so his chance had arrived.
"Get lost! Get the hell away from me!" Sister Lan snapped furiously, clearly infuriated by Wang Zhendong's shamelessness.
"Yo, Wang Zhendong, looks like your little lady isn't giving you much face, eh?" Scarface sneered mockingly.
At that moment, Wang Zhendong's gaze also turned somewhat strange:
"Sister Lan, you say he's been gone for so many years, and you haven't found a man! Don't you have any physical needs? They say a woman at thirty is like a wolf and at forty like a tiger. Even if you don't find a man now, you'll find one later—it's just a matter of time! Since that's the case, why not me?
After all, 'why let the water flow into someone else's field?' I promise I'll take good care of you and Tongtong."
What Wang Zhendong said was downright shameless and explicit, clearly suggesting that Sister Lan must be desperate, which was incredibly humiliating for her.
And Scarface and the others burst into raucous laughter, their eyes lecherously fixed on Sister Lan:
"If you really have those needs, us brothers could help you out."
"Wang Zhendong, you're despicable!"
Sister Lan burst into tears, angered by Wang Zhendong. Since the death of her husband, she hadn't been involved with any man to protect her reputation.
But Wang Zhendong's words were akin to trampling on the one thing she held dear in her heart. How could she not be furious?
"You're making my mom mad, you're a bad guy!" Tongtong glared at Wang Zhendong with teeth clenched.
"Be good, Tongtong. Uncle isn't a bad guy; I'm doing this for your mom's sake. You don't want your mom to keep struggling, right? If Uncle marries your mom, I can provide for you, and you won't have to be bullied like this anymore."
Wang Zhendong was gently coaxing; since Sister Lan was unapproachable, he had to target little Tongtong now.
But Tongtong wasn't buying it: "My mom would never like you, you're so ugly—like a toad lusting after a swan's flesh!"
Children are the purest and most outspoken. Knowing that Wang Zhendong was not a good person, she naturally wouldn't give him face and spoke her mind.
"Haha, a toad lusting after swan's flesh, the little girl's got it right!" Scarface burst out laughing, his words dripping with mockery.
And he truly thought so; with Wang Zhendong looking like a toad, it would be downright bizarre for Sister Lan to marry him.
Although Wang Zhendong and Scarface were in cahoots, Scarface genuinely despised Wang Zhendong, who would betray his brothers and seduce their widows—he was scum in Scarface's eyes.
After all, they from the Jianghu valued righteousness above all, and seducing a brother's widow was the utmost taboo.
"Aiyowei, Wang Zhendong, it seems your reputation really is terrible. The beautiful lady won't pay you any mind, and the pretty little girl detests you, what are you going to do now?" Scarface's lackeys also mocked.
"You little brat!"
Wang Zhendong cursed, furious. Tongtong had made him lose face, and in his anger, he slapped her across the face.
Slap!
Tongtong staggered from the slap, a bright red handprint emerging on her delicate cheek, sobbing piteously from the pain as she clung to Sister Lan:
"Wuwuwu, Mommy, he hit me. It hurts, Tongtong's face! He's a bad man!"
At that moment, everyone saw Tongtong's cheek swelling rapidly before their very eyes.
Even Scarface frowned at this sight; to strike such an adorable little girl, Wang Zhendong was simply heartless and mad.
The earlier claim that he would treat them well now seemed all the more laughable.
"Tongtong." Sister Lan hurriedly soothed Tongtong's beaten face.
"Hiss, Mom, don't touch it, it hurts!"
Tears streamed down Tongtong's face like a string of pearls, plopping softly to the ground. Sёarᴄh the NôvelFire(.)net website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.
"Wang Zhendong, you beast, Tongtong is still a child, what fault does she have that you treat her this way!"
Sister Lan trembled uncontrollably, her beautiful face filled with despair. How could she, a frail woman, possibly be a match for these burly men?
"Enough talk, you'll sign this contract today whether you like it or not!" Wang Zhendong had completely lost his patience and roared at Sister Lan.
Then, wearing a sinister smile, Wang Zhendong said, "Sister Lan, you really should find yourself a man!"
"I'd choose anyone but you, so you can just drop dead!"
Sister Lan was full of hatred, she would rather marry a beggar than Wang Zhendong, this scum.
"Very well, very well, very well." Wang Zhendong repeated 'very well' three times, his face growing completely dark as he commanded:
"Do it, smash this place up!"
Upon Wang Zhendong's order, Scarface and the others promptly entered Sister Lan's house!
Their boss had taken money from Wang Zhendong, and as the saying goes, "take the money and get rid of disasters for others." So naturally, they had to do some conscience-stricken deeds.
Like bullying a mother and her orphaned daughter.
Sister Lan held Tongtong tightly, crying nonstop, yet there was nothing she could do. A single woman without a husband, anyone could bully her.
"Uncle Hao Jian won't let you get away with this!"
Just then, Tongtong suddenly shouted at Wang Zhendong!
In her mind appeared the figure of Hao Jian, perhaps because thinking of Hao Jian brought her comfort.
Sister Lan was also stunned, not knowing why Tongtong would bring up Hao Jian.
From the bottom of her heart, she did not want Hao Jian to come, because she could tell that these people were not to be trifled with. Even if Hao Jian came, it would be useless, and might even harm him.
Hearing this, Wang Zhendong sneered:
"So that's why you've been refusing me. It turns out you had a man on the side already, huh? And here I thought you were so chaste. You're nothing but a whore."
"You're the whore, you disgusting toad, I won't let you talk about my mom like that!" Tongtong said angrily, wanting to protect her mother.
"It looks like you're asking to die!" Wang Zhendong was furiously enraged and raised his hand again, preparing to hit Tongtong.
But Sister Lan would not give him the chance, she hugged Tongtong tightly, her body shivering nonstop, as both mother and daughter were frightened.
Wang Zhendong sneered, "Do you think that by protecting her, I won't be able to hit her?"
Such a naive woman.
"If you dare hit her again, I will make sure you die right here!"
Suddenly, a chillingly cold voice emanated from behind Wang Zhendong and Scarface.
At that moment, Wang Zhendong and Scarface both felt a sharp, cold wind strike them from behind, sweeping over their entire bodies and making them shiver simultaneously.
As they both turned around, it was as though they had seen the phantom of the God of Death.
