Chapter 875: 875 ghost woman in red appears 1
“He splashed you, and you didn’t think to tell my dad?”
“I did say that at the time. But who knew Xiao Yuchuan would find out you’re up to your neck in gambling debt, and even suspect…” She spoke with a pale face, “Suspect that it was you who had me deliberately seduce him.”
“How could he possibly know…”
“He said I didn’t have the courage to seduce him while you and your dad were both in the room.” Liu Yuhong snuggled into his arms, “That night, he even saw me and you…getting intimate. Ping’an, forget it, Xiao Yuchuan isn’t that kind of man, let’s not target him anymore.”
Liang Ping’an’s face darkened, “This is bad, now that he knows about us, he will be even less likely to let us off. In case he uses this as a threat later…”
“He won’t…”
...
“When someone has leverage over you, it’s like being held by the throat,” Liang Ping’an said, “If you get on good terms with him, you could shut him up.”
“But…” She hesitated.
“There’s no ‘but’. Listen…for our future, you must reel Xiao Yuchuan in.”
“…” Liu Yuhong didn’t speak, for even though she had been instructed by Liang Ping’an to seduce Xiao Yuchuan, she genuinely did find a man like Xiao Yuchuan appealing.
Seeing that she remained silent, Liang Ping’an held her down on the ground, leaning over her with a complaint, “Let’s not talk about this, we haven’t had a chance to do it for days…”
“Your dad, that old geezer, has been pestering me these past few days, afraid he’s starting to suspect something about us…” Liu Yuhong’s brows showed fear, “Ping’an, what if…we just elope?”
Liang Ping’an began to undo her clothes, “I’ve already been too unfair to my dad by being with you behind his back. For you, I’ve already lost my conscience to a dog. Neither of us has the skills to survive on our own; if we elope without land or a home, how would we live?”
“But this way, I’m afraid sooner or later your dad will find out…” She was full of worry, “You’re Old Liang’s only son, if he finds out, you’ll just get a few lashings and be locked up for a few days, but I’ll be in real trouble, in case I get thrown into a pig cage…”
“It won’t happen.” Liang Ping’an soothed her, “If things really turn sour, I’ll take you and flee. As long as you’re willing to endure hardship with me.”
“I’m not afraid of hardship,” she said firmly, “As long as I can get away from your cursed old dad, I’d rather die outside.”
“You know I’ve racked up a bit of gambling debt…” Liang Ping’an’s handsome face became worried, “Sister Hong, you have to hurry and help get some money from Xiao Yuchuan…”

Slap! Liu Yuhong suddenly slapped Liang Ping’an in anger.
Liang Ping’an was stunned, and then angrily said, “Sister Hong, why did you hit me?”
“I’ve been married into the Liang Family for seven years and have secretly been with you for seven years. You keep asking me to seduce Xiao Yuchuan; my conscience is completely rotten, don’t I deserve a slap?”
After hearing this, Liang Ping’an slapped his own face several times, “Sister Hong, it’s my fault. I’m useless. I thought I could win money at the gambling house and then take you away with me. But who would have thought I’d lose over two hundred taels? Even if I confessed to my dad, he wouldn’t have that much silver to cover my debts. If it comes out, and he finds out about my huge gambling debt, he would beat me to death! The Xiao Family has so much money, where else could I get the money if not from them?”
“That last time when your dad was drunk, you pretended to be drunk too. I wanted to comply with your request and seduce Xiao Yuchuan, to extort some money from him, but despite my best efforts, he didn’t take the bait.” Liu Yuhong expressed regret, “I don’t know if it’s because he looks down on me…”
