NovelEnglishChapter 399 Swan and toad.
Xiao Hua felt like he was going to blow up, staring at the drunk woman in front of him, he wanted to bite, punch and maybe snap someone's head, most certainly the head of this drunk woman off and kick it off to the river that flowed behind the house he was living and be done with it. But he knew that maybe even after doing all of that, he might not be able to calm down, like how in the hell does anyone expects him to calm down?This woman called Chen Ying has been following him since the first day he came to the village, at first he didn't pay any attention to her. In fact, it was better to say that he didn't want to pay any attention to her, so he simply ignored her after all, there were countless admirers of him who would stare at her and sometimes even follow him a little. Of course, he would be lying if he said that it didn't boost his vanity but that was his limit of acceptance. Beyond that, he would definitely not let anyone cross the line and stop whoever tried to cross the line.
It was as simple as that for him.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇtSome women of the villages did understand where he was coming from and they stopped coming after him, at most they would just shoot some admiring glances at him and he was fine with that —— Xiao Hua knew that he was beautiful and he was used to the attraction ever since he was a child, even when he was young many women would like to cuddle him and pinch his cheeks because he was the cutest among all the kids in the tavern.
Xiao Hua thus, never minded them looking at him and gushing about how cute and beautiful he was, this was something that he was used to but this woman! She has been chasing after him like a stalker, when he confronted her, instead of stopping what she was doing, she got even more emboldened, it was as if him turning around and scolding her was what she has been waiting for all along and then she started to send him gifts that he didn't want and never once accepted. After asking around who this woman was, Xiao Hua found out that Chen Ying was the daughter of one of the village elders and thus, she didn't fear anyone.
Even Xiao Hua who didn't fear any sort of trouble had to think about offending Chen Ying because he wasn't alone in this, he had a number of mers that were relying on him to take care of them and he was also under the care of Yu Dong if he was to shove his paper umbrella in that woman and open it then he wouldn't be the only one facing the consequences, Yu Dong who was his owner and boss too would have to face the consequences with him.
Maybe if everything was all right, he would have then he would have thought about taking the risk and sending this woman down a painful lane that she will surely not forget but the thing was Yu Dong was already having trouble with two of her husbands trying to commit suicide, so he couldn't bring himself to make Yu Dong worry about him as well and that's why he thought about chasing this Chen Ying away on his own.
But things weren't as simple as he thought Chen Ying was a lot more pertinacious than he thought. She not only did not drop the idea of stalking him but she also became even more fervent in her pursuit of claiming him, Xiao Hua seemed to have forgotten just how many times he told this woman to stop coming after him but instead of listening to him, she just did her own thing. Turning up in the middle of the street with a bouquet ( that he threw right in front of her and even stomped on it), bringing a bolt of good quality fabric ( he set fire to it) and this was just something that he could remember, but Chen Ying stupid actions weren't limited to these alone.
Sometimes she would turn up in front of his house and bring three silver taels, demanding that he put on a show for her—- as he used to in the tavern. Only then did he find out that Chen Ying was one of his patrons when he was working in the tavern.

Now he was the co-owner of the bar that was opened in the town with a booming business but this taint! This taint of his past just wouldn't let go of him no matter how hard he tries to clean it.
Which was frustrating, given he has done nothing wrong! So, what if he came from the tavern? Does a worker from a brothel or a tavern not have the right to start their life anew?
All he wanted was a life where he can hold his respectfully, but ——-
Xiao Hua glared at Chen Ying who was stumbling and staggering on her drunken feet, he was so furious at her persistent attitude of chasing after him that he wished that he could claw her face out and skin her alive before whipping her with his Guqin until its strings break.
Face flushed with anger and fists clenched in annoyance, he shouted, " I am telling you to get lost! Who do you think you are looking at? Have you ever seen your face in the mirror? If it's too expensive for you then pee on the ground and take a look at your ugly face! Bleh~ if I were to sleep next to you I wouldn't ever be able to stop vomiting! Be thankful that I am not scratching that below-average face and giving you a scar or two! Just look at her, she looks like a fucking toad and is still aiming to eat swan meat, are you out of your mind?"
