Zhang Liang and his party jolted in the carriage for more than half an hour and finally arrived in front of a mountain.

As the carriage slowly stopped, they got out one after another.

As soon as they landed, the scene before them surprised them.

The foot of the mountain was filled with luxuriously decorated carriages, which were obviously left by believers who came to the temple to burn incense.

What is even more eye-catching is that around these carriages gathered many noble ladies dressed in gorgeous clothes, with wrinkled faces and thick foundation.

When these noble ladies saw Zhang Liang getting off the carriage, their eyes immediately became unusually bright, as if they had discovered some rare treasure.

Then, they gathered around and surrounded Zhang Liang.

One of the ladies, who was dressed most gorgeously, was the first to ask, "Is this young man also coming to our temple to pray for blessings?

Faced with the sudden attention, Zhang Liang felt uncomfortable.

Especially when he looked closely at the women approaching him, he couldn't help but feel nauseous - the wrinkles on their faces were covered by thick makeup, which looked both funny and disgusting.

Despite this, out of politeness, he still managed a smile and responded: "Yes, I am here to burn incense and worship Buddha."

However, there was a hint of impatience in his tone.

But for those ladies who are used to solving problems with money, this little emotional change is nothing.

They believed that as long as they paid enough money, the attitude of the young man in front of them would change drastically.

Some people even started to suggest that Zhang Liang should be invited to visit the temple, or that he should be offered some extra help in exchange for more opportunities for contact...

Faced with this situation, Zhang Liang secretly complained in his heart, hoping that he could get rid of this group of overly enthusiastic people as soon as possible and concentrate on completing the purpose of his trip.

Just as Zhang Liang was trying to break away from the entanglement of those noble ladies, a woman dressed extremely seductively walked up to him.

Her eyes were full of provocation and temptation, and a confident smile appeared on the corner of her mouth. She said softly, "Hey, isn't this a coincidence, handsome? Since we are so destined to meet, how about we go up the mountain together?"

As she spoke, she wanted to get closer to Zhang Liang, as if she had already regarded him as her own.

Seeing the woman's actions, Zhang Liang's mouth twitched involuntarily, but he still tried to remain polite, forcing a smile and responded, "I'm really sorry, I don't need anyone to accompany me."

Although he tried to keep his words gentle, the rejection in his tone was very obvious.

Unexpectedly, these words aroused the interest of more ladies.

One of them laughed and said, "Hey, don't jump to conclusions so quickly! If this guy is willing to go with us, there are so many benefits!"

After saying this, she deliberately raised her voice.

"The price I offer will definitely satisfy you!"

As soon as these words were spoken, they immediately caused a commotion among the surrounding crowd.

Several other equally lavishly dressed women chimed in, "How dare you argue with someone like that with your meager family background? As long as the young man agrees to follow me, I'll satisfy any request!"

As he spoke, he reached out and tried to touch Zhang Liang's face.

Faced with such direct and excessive behavior, Zhang Liang finally couldn't bear it anymore. When he was about to push away this group of rude people, the two girls standing next to him quickly stood up.

"Is there something wrong with your eyesight, you old ladies? Can't you see there are three people standing here? Get out of the way! Don't get in our way!"

After saying that, he stood in front of Zhang Liang, forming a barrier to protect him from being disturbed.

This scene instantly quieted the originally noisy crowd, and everyone was stunned by the two girls who suddenly appeared.

It took a few seconds for the women to react, and their faces turned ugly.

As a woman, one of the most annoying things is being called old, not to mention that they are all rich and powerful people who have never been insulted like this before.

One of the women said gloomily, "How dare you, little girl, talk like that! How are we old? Which eye did you see that?"

After she said this, she immediately received responses from many women.

These women now look completely different from before. They no longer have that elegant and noble temperament. Instead, they look more like street shrews.

When Zhang Liang saw Zhong Xueqing and Wang Xueyi being scolded, he felt furious and immediately pulled them behind him.

Then he responded bluntly: "I think what they said is absolutely right. I can't stand it anymore for a bunch of old women to be so coquettish here."

His words were full of contempt and disdain, which made all the women freeze in place, as if they were shocked by this sudden counterattack.

Immediately afterwards, Zhang Liang ignored the women and pushed them away, then took Zhong Xueqing and Wang Xueyi towards the temple on the top of the mountain.

His actions were decisive and quick, and he obviously didn't want to continue to get entangled with these unreasonable women.

As they left, a hint of tension seemed to linger in the air, and the women who had been scolded looked at each other, not knowing what to do for a moment.

Looking at the backs of Zhang Liang and the others as they left, the women pursed their lips, a hint of doubt flashing in their eyes.

One of the women was the first to break the silence: "What should we do now?"

There was a hint of uncertainty and confusion in her voice.

Hearing this, the other woman narrowed her eyes, a sly smile curled up at the corner of her mouth, and then said, "What can I do? Of course I have to keep up with these people. I don't believe there is anyone I can't get."

Her tone was full of confidence and provocation, as if she had already regarded Zhang Liang as a sure thing.

After hearing her words, a gleam of light flashed in the eyes of these women.

After all, they have lived here for so many years and have never met a man like Zhang Liang.

No matter what, they had to capture Zhang Liang and make him their lover.

This strong possessiveness made them more determined.

After reaching an agreement, the women followed Zhang Liang and his men.

Noticing this, Zhong Xueqing said angrily, "Brother Zhang Liang, these people are so shameless!"

"We clearly told them to leave, but they still followed us. They're like dog-skin plasters. How annoying."

There was dissatisfaction and anger in her voice.

After hearing her words, Zhang Liang said calmly, "After all, they want to come to this temple too. We can't just chase them away, right? As long as they don't come to harass us, we should just ignore them."

There was a hint of helplessness and indifference in his voice, as if he was no longer surprised by this kind of situation.
