Chapter 10 I Am Not A Beast

  Actually, the "Xinhua Building" is not much different from other buildings in Tangjia Town. The only difference is that the Tang family specially installed flush toilets and a boiler pipeline with hot water supply 24 hours a day and a heating system here.

  Of course, Tang Dynasty, who loves to take baths, also didn't forget to build a large bathtub with wave massage function in the bathroom for himself.

  The Tang Dynasty turned on all the lights on both floors, making the entire building look radiant and bright, as if it were daytime.

  Leading Lan Xin, from the first floor hall, kitchen, gym, study to the second floor bedroom, introducing all the equipment and functions, and how to use them, which made Tang Chao spend a lot of effort.

  Especially when introducing the bathroom to little girls, Lan Xin, who was in contact with such novel things for the first time, played with the shower head on and off, showing the innocent, romantic and lovely side that a 16-year-old girl should have.

  "Boss, do you take a bath every day?" Lan Xin said with emotion as she tested the temperature of the hot water coming out of the showerhead with her hand: "It's really so convenient to use hot water like this. Boss, can I come and bathe here in the future?"

  "You sleep in the room next door." Tang Chao couldn't bear the little girl's ignorance, turned off the faucet, pulled Lan Xin's hand to the guest room next door, opened the bathroom door inside, pointed at the toilet and showerhead inside, and sighed: "See? I have what you have, from now on this belongs to you."

  "Really? Boss, you're too good!" Lan Xin was overjoyed and cheered.

  "If you think I'm so great, then how should you thank me?" Tang Dynasty asked with a half-joking and half-serious smile.

  "I guarantee that I will serve you comfortably every day!" Lan Xin said solemnly, lightly biting her red lips.

  Tang Chao walked closer to Lan Xin, gently lifted her beautiful chin with his hand, gazed into her lovely eyes and softly asked: "How may I serve you?"

  Lan Xin's eyes flashed with a flustered expression, and she didn't dare look at Tang Chao again. She lowered her head like a startled little rabbit and retreated several steps back.

  A lone man and a widow, alone in one room, this scene and these emotions, the evil fire that had been suppressed for so long in the heart of the Tang Dynasty, finally burst out without any restraint.

  Tang Dynasty's eyes were bloodshot, his breathing was rapid as he approached her, Lan Xin was at a loss and continuously retreated backwards, who knew the direction of retreat was the bed, in the midst of tension, she was pushed onto the bed.

  As a result, Tang Dynasty could no longer control the little reason he had left. A tiger pounced, pinning Lan Xin heavily on his body, holding her tightly, and his big mouth ruthlessly kissed her cherry lips that were tense and slightly bloodless.

  Lan Xin naturally wouldn't let Tang Chao get away with it, struggling to turn her face to one side, both hands grasping Tang Chao's shoulder blades, suddenly exerting force, and violently flinging Tang Chao to the side!

  Feeling that Xiao Yatou actually had kung fu skills, Tang Chao's vigilance suddenly appeared. Taking advantage of the opportunity to turn over, Tang Chao also used both hands to grasp Xiao Gu Niang's fragrant shoulders, and with a slight force, the two became entwined in an ambiguous posture with the man below and the woman above.

  Lan Xin reluctantly accepted her fate, but suddenly she bent her knees and violently kicked the base of Zhang's open legs.

  "How ruthless!" Tang Chao chuckled and clamped his legs together, tightly pinning Lan Xin's right leg in place, rendering her immobile.

  "You're going to serve me like this?" Tang Chao asked with a smile, taking advantage of Lan Xin's momentary daze, and kissed her scorching lips.

  Although Xiaoyao resisted with all her might, the Tang Dynasty did not feel any murderous intent or aura from Lan Xin's body, and secretly laughed at herself for being overly suspicious, relaxed and started playing jokes with the little girl.

  "I may be your maid, but you can't treat me with such disrespect!" Lan's beautiful eyes were brimming with tears, yet her tone was resolute: "You may be able to take my body by force, but I promise you'll also get a corpse!"

  Looking at Lan Xin's unwavering gaze, Tang Chao let out a long sigh, released Xiao Yatou, and sat up, staring at Lan Xin who was lying on her side with a complex expression, speechless for a long time.

  Lan Xin stared back at Tang Chao without fear, her expression unusually stubborn, as if she would rather die than yield.

  "You now belong to me entirely, why are you unwilling to let me have my way with your body?" Tang Chao asked helplessly: "Don't all you women eventually go through this kind of day anyway?"

  "A woman's chastity is more important than anything else!" Lan Xin replied calmly, "If you really want me, you can marry me properly and I'll be your concubine. Although I may not be your official wife, I can still give birth to sons and daughters for you."

  "Can concubinage also be a proper marriage?" Tang Dynasty asked unexpectedly.

  "Of course." Lan Xin said as she tidied up her disheveled clothes, got out of bed and deliberately kept a certain distance from Tang Chao.

  "It's no use getting on the bus first and then buying a ticket!" Tang Dynasty muttered gloomily.

  "What bus are you taking? What ticket are you making up for?" Lan Xin obviously didn't understand what Tang Chao's words meant.

  "It's just us two getting married first and then having a wedding banquet later." Tang Dynasty explained in a tone that was almost a moan, "It's really going to cost our lives."

  "No way!" Lan said firmly, "Boss, I hope you can respect my dignity."

  "Alright, alright, I'm afraid of you, my aunt." Tang Chao groaned painfully and fell onto the bed.

  Seeing Tang Chao tossing and turning on the bed, unable to calm down, Lan Xin felt that if she said she wasn't afraid in her heart, it would definitely be a lie. Especially when thinking of Mu Hailin's words "family law servant", Lan Xin felt even more tense.

  The two of them stood silently facing each other for a while.

  Lan Xin stole a glance at Tang Chao, seeing that he indeed had no intention of taking advantage of her again. After hesitating for a long time, she lightly bit her lower lip and carefully approached Tang Chao, kneeling beside the bed with her knees bent. She grasped her fist lightly and gently patted Tang Chao's leg, "Boss, don't be angry, okay? I'm yours sooner or later, you should at least give me some mental preparation, right?"

  "My little aunt, do you know that I've been stuck in this godforsaken place for over three years all by myself? If it were someone else, they'd have gone crazy from suffocation." Tang Dynasty sighed and said: "We men can't hold back for too long, otherwise we'll get seriously ill."

  "You can go find a girl in the kiln!" Lan Xin seems to understand something about relationships between men and women.

  "I'm stuck here, how can I go out and have fun!" Tang Dynasty sat up with a sullen expression, picked up Lan Xin from the ground and let her sit beside him, humbly saying: "Little lady, can't you just give me some slack?"

  "Then you have to promise me, give me a name in the future." Lan Xin said softly with her head down, looking shy.

  Tang Dynasty heard that there was a play, and his eyes lit up instantly, answering with a full mouth: "No problem! I guarantee."

  "You swore!" Lan Xin's eyes widened, staring at Tang Chao without blinking.

  "I swear!" Tang raised his right palm and said solemnly, "I swear that in the future I will surely marry Lan Xin with proper rituals and bring her into the Tang family. If I break this oath, may heaven strike me down and I shall not die a good death!"

  Having achieved her goal, Lan Xin no longer troubled Tang Chao and cleverly leaned back onto the bed, slowly lying down with her eyes lightly closed, murmuring: "It's my first time, please be gentle."

  Tang Dynasty saw the situation, his heart was bursting with joy and he hastily began to help Lan Xin unbutton her clothes. However, he had no idea how to deal with the buttons on women's clothing in this era, and after a flurry of activity, he finally managed to undo just one button.

  Lan Xin didn't help him at this time either, and Tang Chao finally became impatient and violently "demolished" everything.

  Violence is sometimes indeed the best way to solve problems. In a moment, Lan Xin was stripped by Tang Dynasty, leaving only a red bellyband, crawling into the quilt, shrinking her slender body into a ball, and trembling slightly.

  Obviously, Tang's rough behavior scared Lan Xin badly.

  However, Lan Xin understood in her heart that this was her fate. From the moment Old Lady Mu decided to send her to the Tang Dynasty, she had actually made mental preparations.

  Previously, I had intentionally made things difficult for the Tang Dynasty. On one hand, I wanted to leave some dignity for myself; on the other hand, I also wanted to try and see if I could get a promise from the Tang Dynasty.

  Now, both goals have been achieved, and she can only silently endure the painful process of transforming from a girl to a woman.

  Looking at this little girl in front of him who looked like a pitiful lamb, Tang Dynasty suddenly stopped unbuttoning his pants.

  Just that instant, the little bit of sanity left in Tang Dynasty's mind told him that the girl in front of him was still a sixteen-year-old girl.

  Is he already a beast for treating an underage girl like this? Tang Chao asked himself in his heart.

  In Tang's mind, two voices were constantly entangled.

  Someone sighed and said, in the Tang Dynasty, seducing underage girls was immoral and a crime.

  Another one said with a straight face, forget it! This is the Republic of 1915, a semi-feudal and semi-colonial old society, not the twenty-first century. In this era, women getting married and having children at the age of thirteen or fourteen was a common occurrence.

  No way, you can't deceive yourself! You are a social elite in the new era who has received higher education, and you absolutely cannot lose the bottom line of moral ethics!

  Get out of the way, I've already crossed over and can't go back. I can no longer consider myself a modern person, I must quickly integrate into this era. I can no longer consider myself a passerby, only by merging can I change!

  All of this is just an excuse! You clearly want to toy with that young girl, vent your beastly desires, and are simply a beast!

  Get out! If I were to give up like this, that would be even more despicable than a beast!

  In the end, the Tang Dynasty of realistic thought defeated the Tang Dynasty of idealistic thinking.

  The decision was made, and suddenly Tang felt that his whole body had become lighter, his mind clear, with a sense of clarity.

  Quickly pulling down his pants, Tang Dynasty was stark naked and slipped under the warm quilt.

  "Turn off the light." Lan Xin shrank into Tang Chao's arms and whispered in a mosquito-like voice.

  "Alright, baby, as you wish." The Tang Dynasty decided to respect the customs of this era, stretched out his hand and pressed the bedside switch down. The entire room was suddenly plunged into darkness, with only the sound of men's and women's gasping lingering on...

  Highly recommended! Thank you.
