Chapter 132 - A crowd of melon-eaters (1)
The onlookers looked at the two women on the ground, shocked. Some little girls had no idea what that meant, so they asked their mothers. In return, they received a flick to their foreheads before their mothers dragged them away. They didn't let their daughters be exposed to such dirty things. Many of the men, who were there to accompany their wives or girlfriends, were pinched, hard. Many of them let out small cries, even. A few men, who were enjoying the show, were dragged away by their wives by their ears.
More people came over and pointed and talked about the two cousins. Should there be cellphones back then, Shu Yan was certain that they would make all sorts of headline news.
Fan Xiaomei looked around herself and put up a mean front. “Stop with your nonsense already. Do you have any proof?”
“How do you know that I don’t?” said the woman as she pulled a stack of photos out of her purse and handed it over to the man next to her, having him distribute them to the onlookers. “It is fate that has brought us all together today. This is too good not to be shared with all of you here.”
Even Shu Yan was shown a couple of them. One of them was inside a large bathtub. A respectable looking man was sitting inside with Le on one arm and Fan Xiaomei in the other. He was smiling happily. Another one was on the bed. The two girls were in the front and back…
Zhang Baizong was certainly very creative in the picture. In comparison, Ye Zhiqiang’s affair was like childplay in front of him. Sure enough, city dwellers were more creative when it came to things like this. The saying was true.
Everybody was shocked. A few newly wedded young women even let out a small cry, then couldn’t resist taking another look at them. Shu Yan noticed a few men secretly hid some of the pictures. Their intentions for them were obvious.
The final stack of photos was tossed onto Le and Fan Xiaomei. The two of them turned pale as they looked at the picture. Especially Fan Xiaomei, she had already collapsed onto the ground. She felt as though she had been plunged into an ice cave, and she was shivering in cold.
Le was single; she could move to a different city and start over again. Fan Xiaomei’s situation was different. She has a husband and a child. If words got out, her man would kill her.
Fan Xiaomei crawled over to the woman, but she was stopped by the man next to the woman before she could touch her.
“That wasn’t my intention. It was her. My cousin tempted me. She said if I do it with her, she’d help me open up a children’s clothing shop. I had been poor for too long. I was forced into this. Please, don’t.”
Fan Xiaomei’s abrupt change surprised even the woman. She gave Fan Xiaomei a smile that was not a smile then turned to look at Le.
Le, on the other hand, tossed all the photos aside and stared at the woman viciously. “So what if I have seduced the man? All I had to do was to wiggle a finger and he came crawling like a dog. After I left, I got a job and was just minding my own business. It was your husband who came and hugged and kissed me and apologized to me. He said he likes my type and that you were like a log in bed. If it wasn’t for your money, he would have divorced you a long time ago. It was your fault that you couldn’t keep your man, why are you taking it out on me?”
Everybody around them peeked over at the woman cautiously. Shu Yan, too, peeked at the woman and noticed that she appeared to be exceptionally calm.
“Don’t worry. What I have waiting for him is even worse than what you are getting right now.”
