CHAPTER 757: CHAPTER 753: JUST A VILLAGE WOMAN (SECOND UPDATE)

"You... you..." Liu Qingshan’s face turned red with anger from Mu Shuangshuang’s words.

His words became increasingly incoherent, and the look in his eyes as he gazed at Mu Shuangshuang grew even more hateful.

"It’s just the two of us here, Liu Qingshan, so don’t pretend to be infatuated. Whether it’s true or not is just a matter of saying yes or no." Mu Shuangshuang said.

Inside Liu Qingshan, fear, anger, and resentment were interwoven.

He didn’t know Mu Shuangshuang’s identity.

Because he rarely returned to Er Gui Village, perhaps only once or twice a year.

Each time, he was only focused on talking to Fu Xiaonan, completely disregarding others in the village.

But the person in front of him was definitely a friend of Fu Xiaonan, Liu Qingshan guessed.

"Hmph, are you a friend of Xiao Nan? I really doubt Xiao Nan’s taste. How could she have a village woman friend like you, rude and aggressive. Well, someone like you is only fit to be a village woman!" Liu Qingshan sarcastically glanced at Mu Shuangshuang.

I don’t know where Liu Qingshan got the confidence that he must be better than Mu Shuangshuang.

Mu Shuangshuang found it amusing.

"Village women are better than you with your outward respectability and dirty heart! You’re eyeing Xiao Nan’s family’s little property and reluctant to let go, aren’t you?" Mu Shuangshuang rudely speculated.

"Don’t talk nonsense, the Liu Family has plenty of money, I just... I genuinely like Xiao Nan, I’ve liked her since childhood, no matter what you say, I won’t let go." Liu Qingshan said firmly.

Only in Mu Shuangshuang’s view, this firmness was no different than being a rascal.

For a man like Liu Qingshan, Mu Shuangshuang admired his shamelessness.

"Eating from the bowl, eyeing the pot, Liu Qingshan, you’re certainly not a good person!" Mu Shuangshuang said.

In terms of verbal sparring, Mu Shuangshuang claimed to be second, and no one dared claim to be first.

Liu Qingshan didn’t want to get tangled in this matter, so he simply turned his head away, not looking at Mu Shuangshuang.

Mu Shuangshuang lit a fire with the cloth pulled from Liu Qingshan, and the pile by the fire gradually grew warm.

Mu Shuangshuang didn’t know what was happening with Lu Yuanfeng, but at this moment, all she could do was wait for Lu Yuanfeng to return.

Leaning against the tree trunk, Liu Qingshan felt the warmth of the fire pile, opened his eyes, and saw Mu Shuangshuang roasting the fire; he just wanted to approach but was called away by Mu Shuangshuang.

"You better not come over. Fengzi and I went up the mountain to find you, but we just didn’t want Xiao Nan to be sad. Now that I know you’re a scumbag, your life or death has nothing to do with me!" Mu Shuangshuang said unceremoniously.

After speaking, Mu Shuangshuang picked up a twig and placed it between herself and Liu Qingshan, hinting that if Liu Qingshan dared to approach, she wouldn’t be polite.

Liu Qingshan tried to come over several times but was hit by Mu Shuangshuang’s twig several times, his hands turning red.

He held his hands and glared at Mu Shuangshuang viciously.

Half an hour later, Mu Shuangshuang became a bit sleepy, but the gradually approaching footsteps instantly aroused her alertness.

"Shuangshuang, Shuangshuang..." Lu Yuanfeng called softly.

He followed the torchlight, and as he approached, he grasped Mu Shuangshuang’s hand.

But he immediately let go.

Mu Shuangshuang’s hand was warm, but Lu Yuanfeng’s was frozen like ice.

"Are you stupid, why are you pulling your hand back?" Mu Shuangshuang grabbed Lu Yuanfeng’s hand and brought it to the fire pile.

Next to the fire pile, a heap of snow melted and was already very moist, but because Mu Shuangshuang used rocks to separate the snow when lighting the fire, the fire hadn’t gone out yet.

"Brother Qingshan..." Fu Xiaonan, who came along after Lu Yuanfeng, walked up to Liu Qingshan.

At this moment, Liu Qingshan’s upper teeth were chattering against his lower teeth, and his entire mind was somewhat unclear.

But he still remembered to complain to Mu Shuangshuang.

"Xiao Nan, she... she..."

Mu Shuangshuang swiftly declared, "Xiao Nan, I have already told Liu Qingshan that we are friends, but he doesn’t believe it and insists that I’m a man-eating demon. He doesn’t even dare to come close when I make a fire."

Mu Shuangshuang said with such sincerity that even Lu Yuanfeng next to her believed it.

Lu Yuanfeng frowned at Liu Qingshan, clearly showing his displeasure.

"You... you... liar..." Liu Qingshan couldn’t finish his sentence before he fainted directly.

Fu Xiaonan panicked, and the accompanying servant panicked as well.

"Everyone calm down, Liu Qingshan is just fainted from the cold, take him down the mountain, and he’ll be fine." Mu Shuangshuang said.

"What are we waiting for then, let’s hurry up and go!" The servant urged Mu Shuangshuang.

"Are you going to carry him down?" Mu Shuangshuang sneered.

"Such a heavy man, it’s not like a mountain pheasant or hare that you can just carry down; we’ve been exhausted all night and can’t rest a bit?"

Mu Shuangshuang’s hostility was released in her words.

The servant knew seeking Mu Shuangshuang was useless, so he turned to plead with Lu Yuanfeng.

"Brother, please, save Qingshan. He is a good person, has never done anything cruel or harmful, just save him, I’ll pay you, I’ll give you as much money as you want!" the servant pleaded.

Lu Yuanfeng remained unmoved; he wasn’t blind to the fact that this time, it was Shuangshuang who didn’t want to save Liu Qingshan.

Seeing Lu Yuanfeng not speaking, the servant turned to plead with Fu Xiaonan.

"Miss Xiao Nan, please, save Qingshan. After we go down the mountain, I’ll tell you the matter between me and Qingshan, please..."

The servant pleaded with Fu Xiaonan.

This step was the right one; Fu Xiaonan had suspicions, but those words ultimately did not come directly from Liu Qingshan’s mouth.

Therefore, she would not give up.

Unless Liu Qingshan personally tells her that he indeed has issues with this servant.

"Shuangshuang, Fengzi, won’t you do it for me? Just consider it as me, Fu Xiaonan, asking you both. Later, I will tell my dad that you saved Brother Qingshan, and those two taels of silver are yours."

Fu Wu originally said, whoever saves Zhao Qingshan will be rewarded with one tael of silver each, Mu Shuangshuang and Lu Yuanfeng being two people naturally meant two taels of silver.

But those words somewhat hurt Mu Shuangshuang’s feelings.

"Since you think we came up for the money, then Fengzi, let’s take the person down and collect the silver, then leave quickly!"

Lu Yuanfeng squatted down, helped Liu Qingshan onto his back, and carried him down the mountain.

Fu Xiaonan knew Mu Shuangshuang misunderstood her intentions and explained to Mu Shuangshuang, "Shuangshuang, I didn’t mean it that way. I just want you to save Brother Qingshan, besides, what my dad said must be fulfilled."

"Shuangshuang..."

Mu Shuangshuang didn’t speak because she was close to being infuriated by Fu Xiaonan.

With her mind, she’d probably be completely misled by Liu Qingshan this scumbag.

"Shuangshuang..." Along the way, Fu Xiaonan kept calling Mu Shuangshuang’s name.

Mu Shuangshuang did not respond.

At this moment, the villagers had already withdrawn following Lu Yuanfeng down the mountain, and when they descended, the villagers had gone to Fu Wu’s house to collect their money.

The ten coins for going up the mountain, additional compensation for medical expenses for those injured, luckily, no one lost their life on this trip.
