The Robot Yaoyao's Second Book

[Period setting + countryside + rugged, fierce man + face-slapping and scum-bashing + age gap]

After working like an ox for the Chen family for twenty years, Shen Suqing thought she would be rewarded with children and grandchildren gathered around her and a harmonious marriage.

Instead, her ungrateful children treated her with contempt, and her husband, Chen Jianguo, casually remarked, “That old woman is such bad luck.”

Her heart completely dead, Shen Suqing flipped the table on the spot, slapped every member of the family, and moved alone into a ramshackle old house at the foot of the mountains.

The whole village waited to see her make a fool of herself. Her scumbag ex-husband and ungrateful children sneered that a discarded woman, old and past her prime, would starve to death in the mountains sooner or later.

But on the night of the divorce, Zhou Xiao, the “Living Yama” everyone in the village went out of their way to avoid, stumbled drunkenly over her courtyard wall.

The wild, rugged man, standing 190 centimeters tall, pinned her against the weathered wooden door. His eyes burned with twenty years of pent-up madness and desire. “Sis, you're finally single. This time, no one's taking you away from me!”

Later, the whole village was stunned.

The “old discarded woman” everyone had scorned hadn't starved to death. Instead, she seemed to grow younger by the day, with a voluptuous, soft figure.

One night, Zhou Xiao knelt beside the bed. His calloused hand caressed her fair, gleaming calf as he rasped, “Sis, you're so fair. So fair I want to hide you away, where no one else can see you.”

Shen Suqing blushed scarlet. “Zhou Xiao, stop looking. The light... the light is still on.”
