In the cornfield, the ringtone of the cellphone chimed.

Qiao Jing pressed to answer.

“Sister Jing, the Zhan Family offers you a high price to treat Zhan Qipei for infertility. Will you go?”

The girl wore a straw hat, a blue cloth shirt, and yellow sneakers, looking as rustic as one could be. Yet, under the fierce sun, her small palm-sized face resembled the finest suet white jade, glowing white, moist, and translucent.

“Wait a moment.”

“What’s up?”
