"Guilty? What have I got to be guilty about?"
"You slept with his wife, don't you feel ashamed?"
"Ashamed?"
Zhang Xiaoshan smiled at Jia Lanhua.
"You've been with Wu Damming for quite a few years now, and you know full well how he's treated me all this time. Just because my family is small and we don't have many relatives, he's bullied us relentlessly. He's always given us the worst, most remote, and most barren land. When my brother left, he wouldn't even allow us a decent plot for a grave. I've worked as a village doctor for a year, and he hasn't paid me a dime. And when I was finally made permanent, he sabotaged me, blocking my way. Honestly, the fact that I didn't kill him already is doing him a favor. So tell me, what do I have to feel guilty about?"
"If you really want to know how I feel, it's probably delight."
"So you're saying, you slept with me to get back at him?" Jia Lanhua sounded perturbed.
Zhang Xiaoshan shook his head.
