Tang San: Next Time for Sure

"No! I can't do that!"

Tang San immediately rejected the thought in her heart.

Tang San would never do something that shameful again for the rest of her life.

Tang San got up. The food Xiao Yexuan had prepared was finally ready.

Since Xiao Yexuan was not here, all of it belonged to Tang San.

Tang San threw all her distracting thoughts to the back of her mind. Right now, she only wanted to eat.

After eating her fill to her heart's content, Tang San patted her round belly.

It felt a little strange. Why did this bulging look resemble having a baby so much?

So this was what it looked like after becoming a woman and having a baby?

Tang San had learned something new. After all, she had never seen it from childhood until now.

She had not even drunk her mother's breast milk.

Thinking of this, Tang San thought of her mother.

She had never seen her mother since birth, nor had she ever felt any maternal love.

What about fatherly love? Tang Hao, that drunkard, drank himself senseless every day. Back in Holy Soul Village, Tang Hao had practically never cared about her.

Tang San had never felt any fatherly love either.

Tang San rubbed her stomach. If there really was a baby inside, then when the baby was born, Tang San would absolutely never let it suffer the hardships she had endured.

She had to give her child the very best motherly love!

On the condition that the child's father was not that detestable Xiao Yexuan!

Thinking of Xiao Yexuan again, Tang San's eyes widened in fury. He was infuriating! He was despicable!

Tang San wished she could tear Xiao Yexuan apart with her bare hands.

After venting in her mind, Tang San rolled over and sighed.

Tang San had eaten far too much just now, and she did not want to move at all.

"I can't keep wallowing like this. While Xiao Yexuan isn't here, I should make some poison!"

Tang San immediately sprang up. She still had to resist Xiao Yexuan in secret.

The Ice and Fire Duality Eye was filled mostly with extremely toxic medicinal herbs. When Tang San refined medicine, she used many different poisons and mixed them together to create even stronger toxins.

However, there were also herbs with even stronger toxicity that could unleash immense poison without needing to be mixed with anything else.

Those were the poisons Tang San wanted to find.

But although the space within the Ice and Fire Duality Eye did not look large, it contained a vast variety of medicinal herbs. Most of those extremely toxic herbs looked utterly ordinary, and sometimes they even transformed to resemble the surrounding herbs for camouflage.

They were very difficult to discover.

For Tang San, finding those poisons would also take a great deal of time and effort.

When Xiao Yexuan had been around before, Tang San had searched as well, but she had not made it too obvious. Otherwise, if Xiao Yexuan noticed what she was looking for, it would be terrible.

Now that Xiao Yexuan was gone, Tang San felt this was a good opportunity.

However, after taking two steps, Tang San looked down and found her view blocked by two enormous things. She could only pat her round, bulging belly.

This... I really ate way too much today!

She had even finished Xiao Yexuan's share of the meal. Otherwise, her belly would not have become so huge.

Such a large belly made Tang San feel terribly lazy. She wanted to lie on the bed just like this and sleep soundly.

Tang San shook her head hard. Finding the Peerless Poisonous Herb was her chance to turn things around.

She absolutely could not be lazy.

Besides, when Tang San was little, her father Tang Hao had barely cared about her.

Now that she was in trouble, Dugu Bo had been gone for a long time, yet Tang Hao still had not come to save her.

Women were naturally emotional, especially since Tang San had suffered far too many punishments these past few days.

Yesterday, she had even made herself feel good.

It had to be because the pressure was too great and she needed to relieve it.

Otherwise, how could someone as Pure and Untainted as her do something so utterly shameful?

With that thought, Tang San understood that the most reliable person in life was still herself.

She had to make herself stand up!

She had to make herself take action!

Tang San stood up, a proud smile appearing on her face. She was standing!

She, Tang San, would turn things around and take down Xiao Yexuan! She would make Xiao Yexuan be her dog!

Then Tang San ran outside, hopping and skipping!

"Ah!"

Perhaps Tang San was too happy, too excited, or perhaps she had crawled on the ground for too long.

After only two steps, her left foot caught her right foot, and Tang San fell flat on the ground.

If not for the two huge airbags in front of her, this fall might have left Tang San battered and bleeding.

Tang San's nose stung with pain, and she felt utterly wronged.

Why was she always the unlucky one? She had only been running, yet she fell. The fighting spirit she had worked so hard to summon...

This... just one fall had extinguished it completely, like a bucket of cold water poured over it.

With the grievance in her heart and everything going wrong, Tang San truly did not know what use there was in continuing to work hard.

Xiao Yexuan was someone who could easily defeat even Poison Douluo.

Could she really make Xiao Yexuan die just by using a few petty tricks?

That was far too simplistic. How could anything in this world be that easy?

The more Tang San thought about it, the more dejected she became. She felt like she might as well give up and rot away.

But if she gave up, then she might be comfortable today, but once Xiao Yexuan returned tomorrow, Tang San would again suffer endless punishment and misery.

Tang San's eyes were red and swollen. She felt that she could not go on like this. She had to resist. She had to live well.

Tang San's resolve was ignited once more, and she struggled to climb up from the ground.

Then she noticed a chilly feeling across her chest.

Her clothes... were torn.

Tang San quickly covered her chest with her arms.

Although there was no one here, as a person, as a woman, protecting her privacy was an instinctive thing.

Tang San looked at her clothes. She had only altered one of her old outfits.

How could she have had time to alter her other clothes into something this body could wear now?

"Mm... I should mend my clothes first, then go look for poison. It feels like time is tight." Thinking this, Tang San sat down again.

She would finish this first, then work hard afterward.

Anyway, judging by the time, she had only just finished breakfast. There was still plenty of time before Xiao Yexuan returned.

Slacking off for a bit would not matter.

Then Tang San climbed onto the sofa, found some needle and thread, and began stitching up the torn clothes she was wearing.

However, after mending one piece, Tang San did not move her legs or use her brain, and she felt extremely comfortable.

Going out into that massive patch of medicinal herbs to search for the strongest poison would be such a difficult task.

Tang San immediately began to lose her nerve.

But without working hard, she could not obtain freedom.

Tang San finally made up her mind!

She took out another set of clothes and said:

"Next time for sure! Once I alter this outfit, I'll definitely go look for poison. If I can't find any poison, I won't eat today!"
