mother and daughter living at the foot of the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The younger one, Xiaohe, was just like a newly grown plum that was still green and tart, yet had a unique flavor that made people drool.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once she matured, God knows how tempting she’d be.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the elder one, if the younger was a green plum, then the older was like a ripe peach, ready to be plucked.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Zhou Yingmei was the Scholar family’s daughter, who had learned to read and write from Old Scholar Zhou since childhood.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Compared to ordinary village women, she had a bit more knowledge of propriety and elegance, but what of that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Once of age, she was still picked off by someone, and even bore his child.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They say it was a mutual affection with a Marriage Certificate, and they were already husband and wife, but without even a ceremony, what kind of spouse is that?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for the man who “plucked the peach,” claiming to be some distinguished family’s young master, pah, even a scoundrel like him knew better—that could be a swindler, and even if he were truly a young master from a distinguished family, how many of those types have eaten their fill and denied responsibility?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>They are plenty, yet both Scholar Zhou and Zhou Yingmei were still dreaming sweet dreams.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In his view, having not seen the man for so many years, that so-called young master had long forgotten who this woman was.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Neither hoodlums nor distinguished young masters would come to claim a farmer’s daughter, so this mother and daughter were doomed to be abandoned.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Since they would be taken advantage of by someone else sooner or later, why not let that someone be Ma Dan?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Sss!” Ma Dan hissed as he swallowed, wiping the drool at the corner of his mouth with the back of his hand, licking his lips, his eyes shining even brighter.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thinking of the differences between the two, Ma Dan felt a wicked flame ignite within him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He reached towards the door, consumed by thoughts of the wonderful pleasure of topsy-turvy passion, completely oblivious to someone creeping up behind him.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Hey, what are you up to?”A cold breath blew on Ma Dan’s ear, and someone was behind his neck, like a Mountain Demon creeping on his back, their voice light and ethereal, piercing into his eardrums.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>“Ah…” He let out a startled scream before his mouth was covered, a pain struck the back of his neck, and his eyes rolled back as he went limp and collapsed to the floor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wufu squatted down, taking a root to lift the man’s hair and saw a large mole under his jaw, grown with a few long hairs, plump lips, and slender eyes—a typical hooligan’s appearance.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She prodded his face with the stick in her hand and tutted, “With this little courage, you still want to have it all?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Who put that idea in your head?”Wufu glanced at the main house door.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Her mother always slept early, so it was better not to disturb her.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If she found out what happened, she would probably be scared stiff, if not outright faint.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Standing up, she quietly opened the courtyard door, grabbed Ma Dan’s feet, and dragged him outside.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Damn, he was heavy.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Exerting all her strength, Wufu dragged the man out of the courtyard, heading uphill.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>As for whatever rocks or brambles they hit along the way, she couldn’t care less.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Thus, halfway through, Ma Dan groggily awoke to find himself being dragged up the mountain by a white-clad figure with disheveled hair, let out a stuttering cry of “Mountain Demon,” and then fainted again.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Wufu cocked her head slightly and hummed, so superstitious were ancient folks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A Mountain Demon, huh?\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She struggled to drag the man to a crooked tree, then removed Ma Dan’s clothing, including his belt, leaving him stark naked, and used the belt to tie his hands.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She went back home for more rope, piled rocks at his feet, and, utilizing her knowledge of physics principles, effortlessly hoisted him up with a pull and drag.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After that, she restored the scene, leaving a naked man suspended from the tree with no trace of human interference.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In the moonlight, watching the swaying man, Wufi felt quite pleased with herself, humming a tune as she descended the mountain.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether the man lived or died was up to his fate.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>She couldn’t be blamed; it was the work of a Mountain Demon, after all!\u003C\u002Fp>",768,"2026-06-05T19:25:17.491Z",1,"novelbin.me","00f14754955c88d28f7fdb1fc1db0181f1df0df458030b3e0b86bb42498520ad","doted-by-the-regent-king-chapter-11","doted-by-the-regent-king-chapter-9",1685,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fdoted-by-the-regent-king-cover.jpg"]
