Chapter 279: Immortal Dance

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Mr. Wen remembered that the Qi family still had shops and fields. The Qi mother and son should not have fallen into this state! He asked curiously, “Then why did you and your mother fall to this state?”

...

Qi Zhanpeng replied in embarrassment, “I was blind and fell into the trap of a wicked person. After my father left, I found more information about the case and the prescription my father gave Zhao Cheng’s mother. I went to the government office to sue Zhao Cheng for false accusation. After handing over the complaint paper, I didn’t get a reply for a long time. I blamed myself for being useless. I felt that if I had passed the examination earlier, my father wouldn’t have died in vain. In my guilt, I sat in front of my father’s grave every day. My mother saw that the weather was hot and felt sorry for me, so she got someone to build a straw shed in front of the grave.”

Mr. Wen sighed. “Your father definitely doesn’t want to see you feel guilty and torture yourself.”

“Doctor Wen, my mother also advised me this way. She said that I should calm down and study hard. Once I got on the rankings, I could help my father clear his name. However, at that time, I was stubborn. How could I listen to my mother? It was only later that something happened.

Qi Zhanpeng recalled that it was already the end of July and early August. He sat in the straw shed mourning in front of his father’s grave. Suddenly, he heard a woman shouting for help and a man chasing after her. He picked up the wooden stick in the straw shed and followed the sound. He saw a local ruffian chasing a young woman in an emerald green dress. Suddenly, the woman seemed to have sprained her ankle and fell to the ground. The local ruffian rushed towards the woman. Qi Zhanpeng rushed up and pointed the wooden stick at the local ruffian who cursed and left.

Qi Zhanpeng stopped not far from the woman. He saw that the woman was slender and had tears on her delicate face. As she looked terrified and uneasy, he asked gently, “Miss, how are you? I’ve already chased the ruffian away. Hurry up and go back!”

“I…” The woman propped herself up on the ground and moved. The tears that had stopped welled up again. “I sprained my ankle. I can’t walk anymore.”

Qi Zhanpeng was stunned. “Then what should we do? Is your house far from here? I’ll help you call for help.”

“My surname is Liu. I live in the Liu Family Village not far ahead. My family lives in the first house at the entrance of the village. When I was visiting my relatives, I met that ruffian and was stopped by him.”

“Wait for me. I’ll help you call for help.” Qi Zhanpeng turned around and left.

“Hey! Don’t go!” Miss Liu suddenly stopped him. She pointed at the wooden stick in his hand with a red face. “I’m afraid to be alone here. Give me the wooden stick and I can leave.”

Qi Zhanpeng turned around and looked at Miss Liu’s frightened expression. He thought to himself that it made sense. This was a graveyard, and there was a forest ahead. If that ruffian did not go far, wouldn’t he be harming her by leaving her here?

Qi Zhanpeng approached Miss Liu and handed her the wooden stick. “Miss Liu, this wooden stick is for you.”

Qi Zhanpeng saw Miss Liu take the wooden stick and stand up. He turned around and left. Miss Liu stopped him and begged with a red face, “Young Master, I’m afraid that the ruffian didn’t go far. Can you send me back?”

Qi Zhanpeng saw her blushing shyly and felt his face turn red. He nodded and said, “Alright! I’ll send you back.”

Qi Zhanpeng stood at the side and waited for Miss Liu to walk in front. He watched as Miss Liu limped in front with the wooden stick. He followed behind her unhurriedly.

After walking for less than an hour, they arrived at the Liu family village. There was a big camphor tree at the entrance of the village and a house nearby. Miss Liu held a wooden stick and bowed to Qi Zhanpeng, who was not far behind her. “Thank you, Young Master. I’m already home.”

“You’re welcome.” Qi Zhanpeng turned around and left. After taking a few steps, he heard someone shout from behind, “Young Master, stop. Young Master, stop.”

Qi Zhanpeng turned around and saw a thin young man in green clothes chasing after him. He asked while panting, “Young Master, did you send my sister back?”

“Exactly. Is there a problem?”

The man cupped his hands and said, “Thank you for sending my sister home. The sun is scorching hot. Please come to my house for a cup of tea before leaving.”

“It’s nothing.” Qi Zhanpeng turned to leave, but the man went forward and pulled him back. He bowed and said, “Young Master, my house is just ahead.

It’s not too late for you to leave after drinking a cup of tea.”

After the man finished speaking, he kept bowing to him. Qi Zhanpeng couldn’t bear to refuse and cupped his hands. “Sorry for disturbing you.”

“Young Master, you’re too polite.” The man happily brought Qi Zhanpeng home. The Liu family’s courtyard was extremely clean and tidy. There were no chickens or ducks in the courtyard, unlike the houses of other villagers. The three main rooms were brightly renovated, and the two elders of the Liu family were also neat and tidy.

Miss Liu’s brother said gratefully, “Fortunately, she met Young Master. Otherwise, Qiaogu would be in trouble. Young Master, no matter what, you have to have a drink at my house.”

Seeing that they kept saying grateful words, Qi Zhanpeng blushed and cupped his hands in return. “Thank you for your kindness. My father passed away and I can’t drink before his mourning period is over.”

“Young Master, my family doesn’t have anything good to thank you for your kindness. I’ll treat you to a meal to express my gratitude!” Qi Zhanpeng could only nod and agree.

After the elder brother of the Liu family chatted with Qi Zhanpeng for a while, Mother Liu prepared the food and even scooped a bowl of soup for him.

Qi Zhanpeng ate a few mouthfuls of food. After drinking the bowl of soup, he felt a little dizzy and fainted on the dining table…

When Qi Zhanpeng woke up from pain in a daze, he saw that the expression of the elder brother of the Liu family had already changed. He grabbed him and threw him on the ground. He punched and kicked him, hitting him in all his vital parts as if he wanted to kill him.

The elder brother of the Liu family cursed, “I thought you were a benevolent man. When I saw you faint, I sent you to rest. Who knew that you would sneak into my sister’s boudoir and rape her when we weren’t paying attention?”

Only then did Qi Zhanpeng realize that he was in a woman’s boudoir. Miss Liu was cowering at the corner of the bed with a terrified expression. He was half-naked and only wearing a pair of underwear. Just as he was about to explain, the old couple from the Liu family rushed in. Old Madam Liu pounced onto the bed and hugged Miss Liu as she cried.

Old Liu hit Qi Zhanpeng, who was still dizzy, with the stick. Seeing Old Liu raise the stick to hit him, he hurriedly knelt down while grabbing the wooden stick in his hand. “Old man, I’m still dizzy…”

Before he could finish, Old Liu shouted, “You beast, how dare you do such a thing? How can my daughter get married? I’ll kill you today and pay with my life in the future.”

As Old Liu spoke, he raised his wooden stick and was about to hit him again when the elder brother of the Liu family stopped him and said, “Father, even if you kill him, Sister will still lose her innocence. Why don’t you let him marry Sister…”

Qi Zhanpeng had been pampered since he was young and had never suffered such physical pain. Coupled with the fact that his head was still dizzy, he thought that he had really done such a shameful thing. Seeing the elder brother say this, he kowtowed and said, “Old man, since I’ve done such a shameful thing, I was embarrassed to mention marriage. Now, I can only ask the two of you to betroth Miss Liu to me. When my mourning period is over, I’ll marry her.”

Old Liu’s expression softened when he heard this. He sighed and sat on the ground. “Forget it, forget it. This is the only way..”
