Alas, Li Xianghong seed as if she hadn't heard Wang Xiaoqiang's words at all, for she charged at him like a runaway car that couldn't brake.
To be precise, she lunged toward him and lunged forward.
Wang Xiaoqiang felt all his nerves tense up, his blood boil, and all his hair stand on end, yet his body didn't move, as if he were a person in a nightmare, unable to move as he wished, completely shocked by the scene he had never witnessed before.
Dumbstruck!
If it weren't for Li Xianghong's body still trembling in panic, Wang Xiaoqiang would have thought this was a preditated seduction.
"Little Qiang, leeches, leeches, help …" Li Xianghong's voice trembled as she pointed at a black spot on her thigh and cried out.
Wang Xiaoqiang pushed Li Xianghong away and then followed her pointing finger to look at her thigh. He wished he hadn't looked, for the sight made his scalp crawl and goosebumps cover his body.
In the moonlight, it was clear. The black spot on Li Xianghong's thigh was a large leech that had already burrowed halfway in, with blood oozing out.
"Little Qiang, quick, help pull it out…" Although Li Xianghong had seen leeches before, it was her first ti being sucked by one, and the feeling was indescribably frightening. She had heard that if a leech burrowed into one's body, surgery was required; otherwise, her life could be in jeopardy.
Indeed, this was the case. Seeing this, Wang Xiaoqiang panicked too. As Li Xianghong was about to pull the leech off, Wang Xiaoqiang grabbed her hand and said, "Don't pull it, the more you pull, the deeper it burrows..."
Saying this, Wang Xiaoqiang's hand unceremoniously smacked the leech on Li Xianghong's leg.
Slap!
With a heavy blow, Li Xianghong bit her lip, bearing the pain without a cry. The slap sowhat eased the itchiness where the leech was sucking.
The leech was stubborn, and a slap had no effect on it. Wang Xiaoqiang raised his hand to hit again.
Slap slap slap slap…
The crisp sound of slaps rose in the night, causing even the moon to tremble. Every slap made Li Xianghong's body tremble too, each bringing intense, burning pain to her thigh.
Finally, after Wang Xiaoqiang's relentless hitting, the leech on Li Xianghong's thigh crawled out of the flesh and fell to the ground.
"Quick, check if there are any more!" Wang Xiaoqiang cried out in reminder.
Li Xianghong imdiately checked her body quickly. To ensure a thorough check, her hands searched for leeches on parts of her body she couldn't see...
Wang Xiaoqiang turned his face away, unable to watch.
"Ah, there's one on my butt!"
At her words, Wang Xiaoqiang hesitated, then turned to look and saw her fully exposed body before quickly turning away again.
"Little Qiang, please, help slap it off!" Li Xianghong pleaded with a sobbing voice, "I'm really scared!"
Wang Xiaoqiang had to turn back again; on her buttocks was another leech, which had also burrowed in deep. Wang Xiaoqiang said in frustration, "Can't you slap it off yourself?"
"I can't bring myself to do it!."
Li Xianghong cried pitifully.
People are always like this, unable to be harsh on themselves but able to do so to others.
If the leech burrowed completely into the skin, slapping wouldn't work, and other thods or even surgery might beco necessary. Although it wasn't her work hours and the bathing spot wasn't at the Chicken Farm, she was still his employee and bathed in the pond he had chosen. Should surgery beco necessary, he would have to bear the dical expenses.
Of course, the more crucial concern was the impact on work. Thus, although unwilling, Wang Xiaoqiang's hand unceremoniously smacked her again.
Slap slap slap slap…
The crisp sound spread far into the quiet mountain night. This leech was more stubborn than the one on her thigh.
Wang Xiaoqiang slapped over twenty tis. When Li Xianghong couldn't bear the pain anymore and cried out, the leech slowly and reluctantly crawled out of her skin.
Wang Xiaoqiang exhaled a long breath and viciously stomped the leech on the ground.
Li Xianghong then collapsed on the ground, her body limp as if drained, gasping for air.
Just then, Zhao Dabao's wife Li Jinye, Wang Qizhi's wife, and Xia Guifang's Mother hurried over.
Li Xianghong, who often showed off her tricks, had caused these three won to have misgivings about her. Li Jinye and Wang Qizhi's wife complained about Li Xianghong's revealing dress, which distracted their husbands from them, while Xia Guifang's Mother often secretly cursed Li Xianghong as a Fox Demon, seducing Wang Xiaoqiang.
Although they all disliked Li Xianghong, as villagers and workmates, they couldn't ignore her cries for help. Considering Li Xianghong had gone to the pond to bathe, Zhao Dabao and Wang Qizhi could only avoid suspicion, leaving the three won to check on her.
When they were halfway there, they felt sothing was off. To be precise, they heard sothing unusual, that smacking sound, and Li Xianghong's screams, sounded way too... suggestive. For the three won, these sounds were not unfamiliar at all; in fact, they were very familiar, sothing they had all experienced before.
The three won stopped in their tracks. Xia Guifang's mother was the first to speak:
"Oh, is that Fox Demon up to sothing..."
"Stealing a man!" Li Jinye chid in decisively.
"Such a disgraceful thing!" Wang Qizhi's wife said through gritted teeth.
"What should we do? Should we just go back..." Li Jinye shrugged.
Xia Guifang's mother stomped her foot, "No, we must confront her and show her..."
So, the three won went over, and then they saw Li Xianghong lying naked with Wang Xiaoqiang standing beside her. The scene stunned the three won; could it be that Li Xianghong was with Director Wang...
The three won were dumbstruck, both Li Jinye and Wang Qizhi's wife regretted coming over. Had they known it was Director Wang, they would never have co. Isn't this just spoiling soone's fun?
But Xia Guifang's mother saw it differently, she believed that surely Li Xianghong was seducing Wang Xiaoqiang, whose youthful vigor couldn't resist her temptation, so he...
While the three won were still in shock, Wang Xiaoqiang noticed them and imdiately panicked, unsure what they thought of the scene. Realizing this, he quickly cald down and waved at the three won, saying, "You three, co over here and help."
The three won were imdiately startled, What? Did I hear that right, help? How can you help in such a situation?
Li Xianghong had just been fiercely slapped by Wang Xiaoqiang and now felt a fiery pain in her thighs, a pain mixed with an odd sensation, making her feel peculiar. As she was on the ground savoring the feeling, and saw people approaching, she quickly got up to get dressed.
"Aunt Xiang Hong was bathing and got bitten by leeches, but I managed to slap them off. Co over and see if there are any more on her," Wang Xiaoqiang explained earnestly.
The three won were skeptical but soon ca over. No one spoke, feeling very awkward.
"Aunt Xiang Hong, don't hurry to get dressed. Let them help check again, in case there are any left, they could burrow in, and then we'd really have trouble!" Wang Xiaoqiang said seriously, as if he had a legitimate concern.
Even if there were no leeches on Li Xianghong, Wang Xiaoqiang needed the three won to examine her body to see the leech marks on Li Xianghong's thighs and buttocks, because it concerned their innocence. They couldn't afford to get a bad reputation over unfounded rumors!
Upon hearing this, Li Xianghong took her clothes off again, standing naked under the moonlight, and ekly said, "Then please check for ."
The three won, upon hearing this, gathered around. Six eyes intensively surveyed Li Xianghong's body. In the end, they found no more leeches, but did see the leech marks on her thighs and buttocks, which were still oozing a small amount of blood.
Seeing this, they believed what Wang Xiaoqiang had said, and also believed in their innocence.
They all looked a bit sheepish.
Wang Xiaoqiang complained, "You guys are too slow. What if Aunt Xiang Hong had encountered a criminal? From now on, we all need to strengthen our safety and help each other..."
The three won, feeling ashad, lowered their heads. Wang Xiaoqiang's words did make sense.
Finally, Wang Xiaoqiang drove over the Humr, and the three won helped Li Xianghong into the car and took her back to the Chicken Farm dormitory. Then, Wang Xiaoqiang instructed them to each go ho to see if they had any healing ointnt to bring to Li Xianghong.
In the end, it was the thoughtful Xia Guifang who had saved a bottle of Yunnan Baiyao and so band-aids, which she used to dress Li Xianghong's wounds.
After helping Li Xianghong with her wounds, Xia Guifang returned ho, found her mother already in bed, took off her shoes, and climbed into bed beside her mother, whispering, "Mom, what exactly happened just now?"
"Li Xianghong got sucked by leeches, and it just so happened that Wang Xiaoqiang ca back and found out… Oh, let's not talk about it, that Li Xianghong, she never gives one peace of mind!" Xia Guifang's mother complained. Then she advised her daughter, "Little Fang, you better start making your move, don't let that sly woman get ahead of you..."
"Oh, Mom, you even know the idiom 'get ahead of you?'" Xia Guifang laughed.
"Cut it out," her mother said sternly, "Don't always get caught up with the factory. Take the opportunity while Little Qiang is there, put so effort into it..."
"Mom, I've been trying hard already…" Xia Guifang protested.
"Your efforts haven't been on the mark. In my view, go now, and you're sure to succeed!" her mother confidently advised from experience.
"Really, Mom, now? You really want to go now..."
"Go on dear, mother knows best!"
"Mom, I'm a bit nervous… let catch my breath before I go..." People always feel tense about the unknown, and thinking about it made Xia Guifang feel so nervous she could hardly breathe.
Wang Xiaoqiang returned to his office, lay down on his bed, and had trouble falling asleep for a long ti. Li Xianghong was even more sleepless; her thighs were still burning, her heart felt the sa way, and her mind kept replaying the scene...
The night was very silent, a silence filled with a sense of embarrassnt!
