Chapter 10 It wasn't on purpose

"Xiaofan, I just saw Zhou Dapao coming out of Widow Zhou's house, did something happen?"

Seeing Zhang Xiaofan come out, Zhao Tieniu asked.

Zhang Xiaofan also told Zhao Tieniu what had just happened.

"That beast Zhou Dapao, he really dared to do such a thing!"

Zhao Tieniu's anger swelled.

"Brother Tieniu, I've already bought the medicine, let's prepare the decoction for Sister Qian to drink first."

Since it had already happened, Zhang Xiaofan thought there was no need to say too much.

He instructed Zhao Tieniu to prepare the medicine as a soup for Sun Qian to drink.

Zhang Xiaofan told Zhao Tieniu the details of preparing the medicine and also personally explained to Sun Qian the things she needed to pay attention to during this time.

Just as Zhang Xiaofan was about to leave Zhao Tieniu's house, Zhao Tieniu caught up and said, "Xiaofan, if Zhou Dapao and his people dare to retaliate against you, tell Brother Tieniu, no matter what, I've been a soldier, and they will still be somewhat afraid."

"Alright, Brother Tieniu."

Zhang Xiaofan knew that Zhao Tieniu was a righteous and generous man, so he agreed.

Actually, having just returned to the village, Zhang Xiaofan didn't want to offend this group of people, but there was no way he could stand and watch when he saw such a kind-hearted widow being bullied.

Moreover, having learned a bit of self-defense from the old master, the current Zhang Xiaofan was no longer the frail scholar who used to only study.

Leaving Zhao Tieniu's house, Zhang Xiaofan went to Zhou Shuyi's home for the last session of the lactation massage.

Zhou Shuyi's bedroom door had been kicked open by Zhang Xiaofan, so he entered without knocking.

"Shu Yi..."

Zhang Xiaofan began to speak, but his gaze was locked onto a scene.

Zhou Shuyi was breastfeeding her baby.

The sight of her white flesh made Zhang Xiaofan's mouth go dry, almost wishing he could step forward for a taste.

Zhou Shuyi looked up and saw Zhang Xiaofan staring at her.

Her face turned red, and she quickly turned away.

"That... Sister Shu Yi... let me know when you are done feeding, I'll be outside the door," Zhang Xiaofan said.

Realizing it was inappropriate to stare at Zhou Shuyi while she was breastfeeding, Zhang Xiaofan immediately turned and walked outside.

Outside the door, Zhang Xiaofan couldn't shake the image of Zhou Shuyi breastfeeding from his mind, it was simply too wonderful.

A minute later.

"Xiaofan, you can come in now," called Zhou Shuyi's voice from the room.

Expecting another blood-pumping scene, Zhang Xiaofan took a deep breath and entered again.

"Xiaofan, my child has finished feeding and has fallen asleep, come over," Zhou Shuyi said, sitting on the bed.

"Thud!"

As soon as Zhang Xiaofan approached the bed, Zhou Shuyi knelt on the ground.

"Xiaofan, I... Sister Shu Yi... haven't read much... don't really know how to express myself, you just saved my child yesterday, helped me with the milk, and today again... kept me safe... you are the savior of my child and me, I want to kowtow to you," said Zhou Shuyi, preparing to kowtow to Zhang Xiaofan.

Zhang Xiaofan immediately reacted.

And stopped Zhou Shuyi.

She had already knelt down, and if she kowtowed, it would have been awkward for Zhang Xiaofan.

"Sister Shu Yi, although Xiao Nian and I did not share the same surname, nor do we have a blood relation, we are both people from Stone Village, and helping each other is the right thing to do. Besides, if there was a second person who could help, they would surely lend a hand after seeing this too," said Zhang Xiaofan as he helped Zhou Shuyi to her feet.

As he helped her, Zhou Shuyi slipped and fell right into his arms.

Zhou Shuyi's body trembled, and her face turned red.

In that moment, silence was golden!

"Gulp!"

As he took in the beautiful face of Zhou Shuyi and felt the unique warmth she brought, Zhang Xiaofan's Adam's apple slid up and down before he suddenly swallowed a mouthful of saliva.

Their eyes met, and the air went quiet as death.

The two looked at each other for a full minute.

"Um... Shu Yi sister, I didn't mean to."

Zhang Xiaofan, who had been staring intently, was the first to speak.

But his hand showed no signs of wanting to move away.

"Xiaofan, do you like Sister Shu Yi?"

Zhou Shuyi said.

Her words startled Zhang Xiaofan, and he quickly withdrew his hand before helping Zhou Shuyi up.

"Sister Shu Yi, you've misunderstood, I..."

"Pfft!"

Zhou Shuyi covered her mouth and chuckled.

"Don't be nervous, I was just joking. Sister Shu Yi is a widow with a child, how could a college student like you fancy someone like me?"

Zhou Shuyi actually disagreed with what Zhang Xiaofan had just said.

In Shitou Village, he was so far the only one who actively helped her.

Because she was a widow, she was talked about behind her back everywhere in the village.

Because her husband had died, she was ostracized everywhere in the village.

What did it matter that they were from the same village? No one would offer help.

"Sister Shu Yi, what's wrong with being a widow? You're as pretty as a flower, gentle, and have a good personality."

As he spoke, Zhang Xiaofan earnestly observed Zhou Shuyi.

Despite being a married woman and having had a child, Zhou Shuyi was only a year older than Zhang Xiaofan.

Her figure and skin were like that of a young girl, but the prominent curves at her front were something that young girls couldn't compare with, filled with charm.

The temperament of a young girl, the sexy figure of a young wife, irresistibly seductive.

Under Zhang Xiaofan's gaze, Zhou Shuyi's body became somewhat unnatural.

"Xiaofan, can we start now?"

Zhou Shuyi asked with a blush on her face.

"Um... yes, we can now."

The sight had stirred Zhang Xiaofan's blood, and a surge of tremendous energy seemed to fill his body.

Zhou Shuyi lay flat on the bed, this time without closing her eyes.

Zhang Xiaofan's blood seemed to be burning, and with the hot weather, his body was parched dry.

Zhang Xiaofan had already decided to take a cold shower when he got home, to calm down properly.

A pair of sturdy, yet nimble hands were placed on Zhou Shuyi's abdomen, then slowly they began to move up, following the acupoints.

Zhang Xiaofan forced himself to empty his mind, not allowing himself to get lost in it.

And Zhou Shuyi's face showed a pleased and indulgent expression.

"Sister Shu Yi, do you owe Zhou Dapao and his people money?"

Zhang Xiaofan seemed to have overheard something about Zhou Shuyi owing money to Zhou Dapao and his people.

"Xiaofan, last year when my man had an accident and was being treated at the hospital, not only did we spend all our savings, but out of desperation, I also borrowed ten thousand yuan from Zhao Tiezhu, but still, my man passed away."

As she spoke, tears once again started swirling in Zhou Shuyi's eyes.

Ten thousand yuan was a considerable sum in Shitou Village.

And for Zhao Tiezhu to dare lend ten thousand yuan to Zhou Shuyi to save her man, it seemed there was something fishy going on.

Seeing Zhou Shuyi so heartbroken, Zhang Xiaofan felt it inappropriate to inquire further.

But he couldn't help worrying about her quietly.
