Lin Xiao Tian didn't understand.
There was nothing wrong with Li Da Zhu's body, so why would he choose this method?
This manifestation of severed Yang energy was clearly self-castration.
But this was not ancient times, there was no emperor, and eunuchs had no future. Moreover, for a grown man to do such a thing was undoubtedly seeking suffering for himself.
"Xiao Tian, don't talk nonsense, it's nothing, I'm perfectly fine!" Li Da Zhu still wanted to quibble.
But his expression betrayed him; Lin Xiao Tian could tell he was lying with just one glance.
"Li Da Zhu, there's no point in lying to me. I can see your problem at a glance. I just don't understand why you, such a selfish person, would do this?"
"Moreover, what I don't understand even more is, since you're already like this, why did you marry Sister Yu Xiang in the first place?"
Facing Lin Xiao Tian's questioning, Li Da Zhu's eyes darted away.
"Forget it, if you don't want to say, I won't force you."
After Lin Xiao Tian finished speaking, he turned to leave.
Although he was very curious why Li Da Zhu did this, Lin Xiao Tian was only curious and had no desire to delve deeper.
Li Da Zhu's ruin of his own body was his own business. Lin Xiao Tian was not related to him in any way, and helping him pay off his debts was already going above and beyond.
Watching Lin Xiao Tian walk away, Li Da Zhu's heart became conflicted.
Just as Lin Xiao Tian was about to enter the house, Li Da Zhu called out to him.
"Is there anything else?" Lin Xiao Tian asked.
"Xiao Tian, can we talk privately?"
Lin Xiao Tian glanced at Li Da Zhu. He didn't know what Li Da Zhu wanted to do, but he still agreed.
The two walked for a while and finally stopped in front of Lin Xiao Tian's fish pond.
Upon seeing the once overgrown pond meticulously cleaned up, Li Da Zhu couldn't help but be surprised.
"Hey! Is Li De Ping on some kind of medication? To actually clean up this broken pond, it's full of venomous snakes and insects!"
"It wasn't Li De Ping, I cleaned up this pond myself. It's a fish pond now."
Li Da Zhu was stunned.
He had once had the same idea, but in the end, faced with the complex environment of the pond, he had given up.
Let alone the poisonous snakes and insects around, even the depth of the pond meant that even if fish fry were released, when it came time to harvest, throwing a net would not catch any fish.
"Raising fish in this pond, won't you go bankrupt?"
"I won't." Lin Xiao Tian shook his head. "I paid off all the money you owed with this pond."
Li Da Zhu was shocked. "Just with this broken pond? How much money can it earn?"
The money he owed was hundreds of thousands. Let alone one fish pond, even ten wouldn't be able to pay it off in such a short period.
"Yes! Just with this, about ten to twenty thousand a day!"
"Ten to twenty thousand?"
Li Da Zhu gasped.
He never imagined that such a small fish pond could earn so much money!
He really didn't know how Lin Xiao Tian did it.
He wanted to ask, but Lin Xiao Tian interrupted him.
"You brought me here, do you have something to say?"
"Don't you want to know why I became a eunuch? I'll tell you now." Li Da Zhu glanced around mysteriously.
"Don't worry! It's broad daylight, who would be here?"
Hearing Lin Xiao Tian say this, Li Da Zhu felt much more at ease. Then he looked at Lin Xiao Tian and asked seriously.
"Xiao Tian, tell me honestly, has anyone come looking for Yu Xiang to take her away recently?"
Hearing Li Da Zhu mention this, Lin Xiao Tian became furious.
"Li Da Zhu, you're a scumbag, actually making Sister Yu Xiang sign that indenture! Are you crazy?"
"Alas! You think I wanted to! I was forced to!" Li Da Zhu sighed.
"Heh heh, forced? Clearly, you just wanted Sister Yu Xiang to take the blame. If you were really forced, why didn't you run away then, and instead dragged Sister Yu Xiang down with you?" Lin Xiao Tian's face was grim.
Seeing that Lin Xiao Tian had seen through him so easily, Li Da Zhu became a little guilty.
It seemed he had underestimated Lin Xiao Tian.
Indeed, just as Lin Xiao Tian had said, he wanted Qin Yu Xiang to take the blame.
At that time, he was heavily in debt, but he wanted to gamble for a turnaround. However, a turnaround required a large amount of capital.
He already had quite a bit of debt at the time, and if he continued to borrow money so recklessly, others would easily notice, which would only accelerate his burden.
Therefore, he deceived Qin Yu Xiang into signing the indenture, hoping to turn his fortunes around.
In the end, he failed, losing both his person and his money, and had to flee.
"Li Da Zhu, if you brought me here just to say these things, then I think you should stop wasting your time." Lin Xiao Tian became impatient.
"Alas! Don't be in a hurry! I still have something to say."
"Speak quickly if you have something to say, spit it out if you have to!"
"Alright, alright, I'll get straight to the point. Do you know why I'm not a man anymore?"
"Interest and hobby?" Lin Xiao Tian asked.
Li Da Zhu was almost angered to death. "Of course not! This is actually Cao Yun Tian's conspiracy! I fell into Cao Yun Tian's trap, which led to this outcome."
When Li Da Zhu said these words, he deliberately lowered his voice. Even though there were only the two of them now, he was extremely cautious when mentioning Cao Yun Tian.
Upon hearing Cao Yun Tian, Lin Xiao Tian couldn't help but become more serious.
"Do you know? I didn't intend to sign an indenture back then. I just wanted to borrow their usurious loan."
"At that time, I went to borrow money from them. Cao Yun Tian happened to be there. As a result, he took a fancy to Yu Xiang at first glance, saying he was willing to lend me money at an interest rate lower than the market rate, but the condition was that Yu Xiang had to use her body to repay the debt."
"I was also bewitched at the time, thinking that I would definitely make back my capital, so I agreed to Cao Yun Tian."
"In the end, the partner who went into business with me ran away. Not only could I not get my capital back, but I also owed quite a bit of money."
"Cao Yun Tian's people came looking for me to repay the money. I desperately scraped together five hundred thousand, but I was still short of five hundred thousand, and I still had debts from business failure."
"It was at this time that Cao Yun Tian approached me, demanding that I fulfill the contract and sell myself to him."
"I refused at the time, saying unless he killed me. But Cao Yun Tian said that if I was willing, he would lend me twice the money."
"This is twice the amount!"
"I agreed. Who would have thought that Cao Yun Tian would want this part of me..."
At this point, Li Da Zhu started crying.
This was a man's dignity. At that time, he even thought of dying, but seeing that entire box of cash, he held on.
Lin Xiao Tian was stunned.
He never expected Li Da Zhu to become a eunuch like this!
But Lin Xiao Tian still didn't understand something.
"You said you had twice the money, so why did you still run away?"
Li Da Zhu sighed.
"I only now realize that I've been completely caught by Cao Yun Tian..."
