Qinghe was also driven to frustration, her nerves still frayed from the scare, and she could barely stand on her feet.
Li Cheng squeezed his way out of the crowd and immediately supported Qinghe, asking anxiously, "Qinghe, what's wrong? Are you feeling unwell all of a sudden?"
Shitou snorted, "She's faking it! She got caught meeting secretly with another man, and now she's started to pretend. Look, her adulterous partner is right there."
Shitou, having felt frightened after Zeng Gang had saved Qinghe, was now worried about what would happen if Qinghe spilled the beans. Not only would his father beat him to death, but others probably wouldn't spare him either. In a moment of desperation, he came up with the idea of an "affair" and ran into the fields, shouting that he had seen Li Qinghe having an affair with another man there.
