TFWYH – Chapter 108 Seducing the Old Man

“No, I didn’t, I didn’t—you’re talking nonsense!” Zhang Tao was on the verge of collapse, thrashing like a madwoman.

Tang Wan sneered. “Then why are you in my house?”

Zhang Tao choked, unable to answer.

Tang Wan narrowed her eyes dangerously. “Did my mother invite you here?”

“…”

“Or was it my second sister, or my husband who invited you?”

“…”

“If no one asked you to come, then why are you here?”

“…”

Zhang Tao had no answer at all!

Tang Wan stopped looking at her and turned her gaze onto Lady Liu. “So how is this our family’s fault?”

“You…”

“Think carefully. Right now, I’m willing to reason with you. If you’re not interested in reason, then I’ll reason with my fists instead.”

Lady Liu swallowed down the curses that had risen in her throat, glaring viciously at Tang Wan before turning to the village head. “Village Head, you decide! That little slut Zhang Tao seduced my old man—she ought to be drowned in the pond!”

“No, I didn’t! I didn’t!” Zhang Tao shook her head frantically, tears streaming down.

“Shut up!” Lady Liu barked, her tone vicious. “You dog of a whore, spreading your legs for men—you’ve got no right to speak here!”

The village head frowned in thought for a moment, then finally ordered someone to fetch Doctor Zhang.

After all, she was his daughter. With such a scandal, how could the father not be present?

But it took quite a while before Doctor Zhang arrived.

The person sent to find him leaned in close to the village head and whispered: “We found him at the Red Delight Brothel in town.”

The corner of the village head’s eye twitched. He cast Doctor Zhang a look that said more than words.

Doctor Zhang, unaware of what had happened, was baffled at the sight of the crowd, his daughter in shambles, tears and hysteria written all over her face. He looked utterly lost. “What happened? Taozi, did someone bully you?”

“Who would bully that shameless little tramp? She seduced my old man and did something disgraceful. As her father, you’d better give me an explanation today!” Lady Liu immediately jumped out, jabbing her finger at Doctor Zhang and laying into him.

Doctor Zhang was stunned. He looked from his daughter to Old Man Ling, who sat off to the side puffing on his dry tobacco, and only after a long while did he find his voice: “What?”

Lady Liu snapped, “Quit playing dumb! You’re no good yourself, and your daughter’s a slut! My old man is already so aged, and she’s still trying to seduce him. That shameless little hussy—aren’t you afraid she’ll kill him in the process?”

“You… you…” Doctor Zhang was trembling with rage, and finally exploded: “Bullshit! Your old man is even older than me! My daughter’s a seventeen-year-old maiden—why the hell would she fancy him? Keep dreaming your spring-and-autumn dreams!”

…

Doctor Zhang was so furious he nearly spat blood.

Zhang Tao gave a shrill scream and fainted dead away.

But while she could faint, her father could not.

The village head frowned, cutting through the noise, and turned to Doctor Zhang. “How do you plan to handle this matter?”

Doctor Zhang stammered, “No, I… how could my daughter be here?”
