Chapter 1: The man insists that she does not undergo surgery.

Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

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.

“I’m very busy, no time,” Qiao Jing replied indifferently.

“Busy? Aren’t you just retiring in the countryside? What’s there to be busy with?” a puzzled male voice came from the phone.

“Picking corn,” she said, and with a “click—” snapped off a corn cob with plump kernels.

“Cough, cough—” the man choked on his saliva. “Picking, picking, picking corn?!”

Qiao Jing rolled her eyes subtly at the air, “Impure.”

Just then, Qiao Jing suddenly heard some noises behind her.

“Wait a moment.”

“What’s up?”

“There’s a corn thief.”

After hanging up the phone, Qiao Jing walked quietly towards the source of the sound.

As she walked, she smelled the pungent scent of blood and saw the blood droplets on the corn leaves.

It was still fresh.

“Rustle rustle rustle—” the sound of corn being pushed down suddenly came from behind.
