"No! I can't do that!"
Tang San immediately rejected the thoughts in her mind.
Such a shameful thing, she would never do it again in her entire life.
Tang San got up, and the food she had prepared for Xiao Ye Xuan was ready.
Since Xiao Ye Xuan wasn't home, these would be Tang San's.
She pushed all her thoughts to the back of her mind and now only focused on eating.
After eating to her heart's content, Tang San patted her round belly.
It felt a bit strange. This round and bulging belly... Could it be that this is what it's like when you have a baby?
So this is what it's like to become a woman and have a baby?
Tang San had learned something new today. After all, she had never seen this before in her life.
She hadn't even drunk mother's milk.
Tang San thought about her mother.
She had never seen her mother since birth, and had never experienced any maternal love.
What about fatherly love? That alcoholic Tang Hao, who drank every day and didn't care about her when they were in Holy Soul Village.
As for fatherly love, Tang San had never felt any.
Tang San touched her belly, feeling that there really was a baby inside. When the baby was born, Tang San absolutely wouldn't let her child experience the same suffering she had gone through.
She had to give her child the best motherly love!
The precondition, though, was that the father of the child was not that annoying Xiao Ye Xuan!!
When she thought about Xiao Ye Xuan, Tang San's eyes widened with anger. How infuriating! How despicable!
Tang San would love to tear Xiao Ye Xuan apart.
After getting this frustration out of her system in her mind, Tang San turned over and sighed.
She had eaten way too much just now and now didn't feel like moving at all.
"I can't be like this. While Xiao Ye Xuan is gone, I should make some poison!"
Tang San immediately jumped up. She still planned to secretly resist Xiao Ye Xuan.
In the Ice Fire Yin Yang Eye, most of the materials were highly toxic herbs. When Tang San concocted medicine, she would mix many kinds of poison together to create an even stronger poison.
But there were also some herbs with stronger toxicity that didn't need to be mixed with anything else to exert their potent effects.
What Tang San was looking for was that kind of poison.
However, despite the space in the Ice Fire Yin Yang Eye seeming small, there were many types of herbs inside. The highly toxic ones often looked plain, and sometimes they even disguised themselves to blend in with the surrounding herbs.
They were very hard to spot.
For Tang San to find those poisons was a time-consuming and labor-intensive task.
Previously, when Xiao Ye Xuan was around, Tang San had looked, but she couldn't do so blatantly. If Xiao Ye Xuan noticed what she was doing, it would have been disastrous.
Now that Xiao Ye Xuan was gone, Tang San felt it was a good opportunity.
But, after walking a few steps, she looked down and saw that her two big assets were blocking her line of sight. She could only pat her round belly.
Wow… Did she really eat that much today?!
She even finished Xiao Ye Xuan's portion. No wonder her stomach was so big.
With such a large belly, Tang San felt incredibly lazy. She just wanted to lie on the bed and sleep it all off.
Tang San shook her head. She couldn't slack off now. Finding the ultimate poisonous herb was her opportunity to turn things around.
She definitely couldn't be lazy.
When Tang San was little, her father Tang Hao hardly cared for her.
Now, she was in trouble, and Dugu Bo had been gone for a long time, yet Tang Hao hadn't come to rescue her.
Women were inherently emotional, and lately, Tang San had been punished so much.
Just yesterday, she had let herself indulge.
It must have been the immense pressure that led her to release it that way.
Otherwise, how could the pure and innocent Tang San do such a shameful thing?
Thinking about this, Tang San realized that in this life, the most reliable thing was herself.
She had to rise up!
She had to take action!
Tang San stood up, a proud smile appearing on her face. She stood up!
She, Tang San, was going to turn things around. She was going to knock Xiao Ye Xuan down! She would make Xiao Ye Xuan serve her like a dog!
Then Tang San bounced and skipped toward the door!
"Ahh~!"
Maybe Tang San was too happy, or maybe she was too excited, or perhaps it was because she had been crawling around on the floor for too long.
After running two steps, her left foot tripped over her right, and Tang San fell flat on the ground.
If it hadn't been for the two big safety airbags in front of her, she might have had a head injury from the fall.
Tang San felt a sharp pain in her nose and felt utterly aggrieved inside.
Why did bad luck always happen to her? She had just been running and fell. The fighting spirit she had just summoned had been crushed just like that.
This fall felt like a cold bucket of water had been poured on her and extinguished her resolve.
Feeling aggrieved and frustrated, Tang San really didn't know if there was any point in trying harder.
After all, Xiao Ye Xuan was someone who could easily defeat even a Poison Douluo.
Just using some little tricks to make Xiao Ye Xuan die? Was that even possible?
The more she thought about it, the more discouraged she felt, and the more she just wanted to give up.
But, giving up meant that she would have one comfortable day today, but tomorrow when Xiao Ye Xuan returned, she would face endless punishments and suffer again.
With red and swollen eyes, Tang San realized that she couldn't give up. She had to resist! She had to live on!
Tang San's resolve was reignited. She struggled to get up from the ground.
She noticed a cold breeze against her chest.
Her clothes… were torn.
Tang San hurriedly used her arm to cover her chest.
Even though no one was around, as a person, especially a woman, protecting her privacy was instinctive.
Tang San looked at her clothes. She had only modified her previous clothes.
She didn't have time to make new clothes that fit her current body.
"Mm… I'll sew this up first, then go look for the poison. Time is of the essence," Tang San thought as she sat back down.
She decided to do this task well first, and then she would work hard.
Anyway, she had just finished breakfast, and there was still a long time before Xiao Ye Xuan returned.
Taking a break wouldn't hurt.
Then, Tang San crawled onto the couch, grabbed a needle and thread, and began sewing up the clothes she had torn.
But after finishing one patch, Tang San didn't move her legs or brain. It felt incredibly comfortable.
Going out into a large pile of herbs to find the strongest poison was such a difficult task.
Tang San was starting to feel like quitting.
But if she didn't try, she couldn't gain her freedom.
In the end, Tang San made up her mind!
She took out another set of clothes and said:
"Next time, for sure! Once I've fixed this set of clothes, I'll go find the poison. If I can't find the poison, then I won't eat today!"
