Chapter 16 The Lone Man and Widow in the Cornfield_1

When the two returned to the village, it had just passed noon.

At this time, most of the villagers were at home taking a midday nap.

But he saw Yang Xuelan on the ridge of the cornfield.

Seeing Yang Xuelan with her chest puffed out, wearing tight pants, Li Qing's thoughts immediately returned to the events of the previous evening.

After greeting Hu Lili, asking her to go home first, Li Qing headed towards Yang Xuelan.

The cornfields in the village were all connected, which was one of Hu Youyu's businesses.

Although each household grew their own, Hu Youyu managed everything from wholesale seeds to procurement, and even gave the farmers a share of the profits every year.

"Xue Lan, you seemed quite comfortable last night!" Li Qing approached her and teased on purpose.

Yang Xuelan's face flushed, and she scolded, "Little fiend, what nonsense are you talking about? Gao Li was insisting, how could I keep rejecting him? If I did, he would get even more suspicious."

"Xue Lan, don't wrong me, we haven't done anything yet," Li Qing said, with a hint of sourness.

Yang Xuelan looked around, moved closer to Li Qing, and said with a giggle, "What's wrong? Are you mad?"

"The wine I prepared for you last night, that useless Gao Li drank it all. After drinking it, I thought he would go to sleep quickly so I could find an opportunity to come see you, but he wouldn't stop pestering to do it with me."

"I couldn't just not let him, besides, didn't I purposefully put on a show for you, the little voyeur?"

Li Qing's face took on an unnatural hue.

After all, spying on others doing that... it wasn't very nice to talk about it.

"I happened to see it..." Li Qing stuttered.

"I was actually checking to see if you would come over last night, but it seemed Sis-in-law was very excited! Was it really that good?"

Gao Li was messing around by the window, and he was watching from outside. Remembering this, he felt frustrated.

Yang Xuelan gently bumped Li Qing, a hint of flirtation in her eyes, and whispered, "Isn't it because I knew you were watching? Do you think I would really enjoy that little thing of his? Because you were watching outside, I inexplicably felt… really, really good."

"You're really naughty!" Li Qing muttered under his breath.

Seeing the look of resignation on Li Qing's face, Yang Xuelan couldn't help but laugh a little. She whispered, "I'll find a chance tonight. How could Sis-in-law let you suffer by yourself? Whatever you want to do later, is that okay with you?"

At these words, Li Qing felt his heart surge with heat again.

"Leave the door open for me tonight, if I can get away, I'll come over. Don't wait up for me on purpose, if I come, I'll just slip into your bed, and you'll naturally wake up."

Yang Xuelan stretched out her hand and gently caressed the slight bulge in Li Qing's pants, her eyes filled with seductive warmth, "Sis-in-law will definitely make it up to you later."

Li Qing's irritation began to fade as he gazed at her intently, "Xue Lan, you're not tricking me this time, are you?"

"When have I ever lied to you? You've touched and tasted, it's just that we never had the chance." Yang Xuelan said, her expression also showing a hint of longing, "Sis-in-law misses your big guy too."

"Alright, I'll wait for you tonight," Li Qing said, suppressing the restlessness in his heart.

"Okay, you should go back now, it's scorching hot at midday," Yang Xuelan said with a seductive smile.

Li Qing looked around the endless cornfields, "Then what are you doing here?"

"That useless Gao Li said he was going to check the fields. It's lunchtime now, so I came to look for him, but I can't find him anywhere." As she spoke of this, Yang Xuelan began to curse, "That good-for-nothing, I bet he's either sneaked off to someone else's place or gone off to nap somewhere."

"Now that all the fields are connected, how can you find him? Better go back first; he'll come home when he gets hungry," Li Qing said.

The vast cornfields stretched over more than a hundred acres; it would be impossible to find someone who had slipped inside.

"It's fine, Qingzi, you go ahead, I was planning to check the corn anyway," Yang Xuelan said.

Li Qing acknowledged and took the lead.

As he descended the main road, he saw Gao Li and a woman sitting in the shade at the bottom of the ridges.

The woman was familiar to Li Qing; she ran the small shop in the village, the cripple's wife, named Caili.

As for her family name, Li Qing wasn't sure.

Li Qing was puzzled, but he continued towards the ridges without changing his expression and looked down.

He just happened to see Gao Li's hand slip into the woman's pants, fiddling around.

Was Gao Li cheating on Yang Xuelan with the cripple's wife?

Li Qing's heart shook violently, feeling like he'd stumbled upon a scandalous secret.

If there was nothing going on between these two, how could Caili let Gao Li slide his hand into her pants?

Something was definitely amiss.

But what puzzled Li Qing was how Gao Li, with his little 'tool', even had the gall to cheat.

Li Qing changed his position, preparing to get a better look at what the two were up to.

But just as he crouched down, he accidentally stepped on a clod of earth!
