"Ah—"
Chen Shuhua let out a wail, covering her rapidly swelling eye, as tears she had just stopped began cascading down again.
"Look what you've done, Jia Ming, just because you can't be a real man, you take it out on me! Now look, you..."
Chen Shuhua's incessant nagging didn't register with Jia Ming; his ears were echoing with "can't be a real man... can't be a real man... can't be a real man."
He can't be a real man?!
This terrible news was like a bolt from the blue, blurring his vision!
...
A few tranquil days later, an astonishing piece of gossip began circulating in the Jade Stone circle: Zhang Yuksheng of Yuyuanzhai had made a comeback only because he was kept by the boss An Yiqing! Jia Ming had his lifeline cruelly broken by An Yiqing just because he happened to come upon this news!
As soon as this news got out, the upper echelons of Xuandu City were rocked as if a bomb had been thrown into a lake, creating waves of shock and turmoil.
