257 Try It If You Don’t Believe Me
When Luo Ziyang heard this, he could no longer suppress his anger.
“Li Lan wants to use the excuse that she saved Xiaoran’s life to get her to chase Yuan Cheng away and let their family stay in the shop. Then, they can move into the shop and do business! They actually dare to have such a delusional idea! Previously, they had already gone to the shop to try to get Yuan Cheng to move out. Fortunately, Yuan Cheng coaxed the two of them into leaving before sending someone to look for me. That’s why their plan didn’t succeed!”
At this moment, Li Lan’s domineering voice came from outside.
“Li Xiaoran, I know you’re inside! When your savior comes, you hide inside without opening the door? Is this how you repay kindness? Or has your conscience been eaten by a dog?”
“Leave this matter to me and Ziyang! Don’t go out!” Luo Cheng said as he pulled out a slender bamboo from the ground and jumped onto the wall.
As soon as Luo Cheng and Luo Ziyang appeared, Li Lan and Wu Duan saw them.
Li Lan was delighted to see the two handsome men.
Just as she was about to speak, Luo Cheng pulled the bamboo out of Li Lan’s hand.
The bamboo hit Li Lan’s mouth and immediately made her face swell.
Before Li Lan could cry out in pain, Luo Cheng smacked her with the bamboo again.
After Li Lan’s mouth was smacked again, it swelled even more and looked like a sausage.
When Wu Duan saw that his wife had been beaten, he was so frightened that he shrank to the side and trembled.
Li Lan’s mouth hurt badly. She wanted to speak, but she couldn’t.
Because when her lips moved even slightly, there was a burning painful sensation.
Luo Cheng said coldly as he whipped the bamboo in his hand at Wu Duan, “Li Lan, Wu Duan, right?! You came to my shop to chase my people away? You’re too big for your britches!” Luo Cheng stood on the wall as he looked down at the two people below.
“No, it’s not like that! This shop is owned by my wife’s cousin. We were just being nice! You hit the wrong person. My wife even saved her cousin. She saved her life!” The man was still hit even though he dodged. He endured the pain and explained while trembling.
“Hmph!” Luo Cheng snorted. “What a joke! Li Lan, you know very well what your so-called life-saving grace is. If you dare to slander my wife again, I’ll tell people the truth! Don’t regret it when the time comes!”
When Li Lan heard Luo Cheng’s words, she immediately panicked.
From this person’s tone, did he know what she had done back then?
This was impossible. No one knew! She had already dealt with it. No one could possibly know!
“If you don’t want others to know about your dirty deeds, don’t do it in the first place! Li Lan, you’d better not try to push your luck. Otherwise, you won’t be able to bear the consequences! If you know what’s good for you, get lost quickly and don’t appear in front of us again. Of course, you can also try!”
With that, Luo Cheng jumped off the wall with Luo Ziyang and ignored the two people outside.
After some time, Li Lan and Wu Duan looked at each other, then helped each other away.
After Li Xiaoran sensed the emotions of the two people outside, she looked at Luo Cheng.
“That person called Wu Duan is suspecting that Li Lan had done something shady behind his back. It seems that things won’t be smooth sailing for Li Lan in the future!”
When Luo Cheng heard Li Xiaoran’s words, he said indifferently, “Isn’t that better? It’ll stop her from coming here to harass us!”
Li Xiaoran nodded and thought about it carefully. “I hope her life gets worse and worse! There’s no reason for her to be able to live a peaceful life after harming me and taking advantage of me back then!”
“Do you want me to send someone to secretly trip them up?” Luo Cheng raised his eyebrows and asked Li Xiaoran.
“There’s no need. People like her will screw themselves over if they commit too many evil deeds. The heavens will punish them. Why should we dirty our own hands? Besides, she’s so anxious to move into the shop and even wants to occupy our shop to do business. It means that she’s not doing well in her in-laws’ house! I’m relieved that she’s not doing well!” Li Xiaoran said.
Although she wasn’t the Host, she had the Host’s memories.
Therefore, after knowing the truth and that what the Host had experienced in the past was caused by Li Lan, it was difficult for Li Xiaoran not to hate Li Lan.
Therefore, the worse Li Lan’s life was, the more satisfying it was for her.
“Go take a shower and change your clothes first! In the next few days, the shop will open. You’ll be busy then!” Luo Cheng looked at Li Xiaoran and suddenly said, “Take good care of your body, maintain a good mood, and wait to be my bride!”
At the mention of this, Li Xiaoran blushed.
Over the past few days at her grandfather’s house, she had completely forgotten that she was going to get married soon.
“Got it!” With a blush, Li Xiaoran entered her house and went to retrieve clean clothes.
When night fell, the tired family went to bed early.
Yuan Cheng was about to rest when he heard a knock on the door.
Who would be here at this hour?
As Yuan Cheng thought about it, he put on a coat and prepared to go out to take a look.
As soon as he walked out of the door, he felt someone smack the back of his neck.
Yuan Cheng blacked out and fainted on the ground…
The next morning, it was misty outside.
Li Xiaoran pushed open the window and saw the thick fog outside.
Normally, it would be sunny after a thick fog, so it should be a sunny day.
After a good sleep, Li Xiaoran got up in high spirits and went to the kitchen to prepare breakfast for her family.
Perhaps she had eaten too much fish and meat during the new year, she was a little sick of it, so Li Xiaoran made the simplest breakfast today.
She made boiled eggs, porridge, and pickles.
By the time the porridge was cooked, the family was already up.
Seeing the simple food on the table, everyone ate merrily.
“Sister, you’re the best. You know that we’ve been eating too much meat recently, so you actually made such a simple yet delicious breakfast for us!” Li Xiaoqing said with a smile.
“If word gets out, you’ll be beaten up! Many people in the village want to eat meat but can’t! You don’t know how lucky you are!” Zhao Xiu glanced at her youngest daughter and lectured her.
“Yes, yes, yes. I’m not content enough!” Li Xiaoqing quickly apologized.
“Xiao Qing, everything is obtained through hard work. We have to cherish our current lifestyle. Think about what kind of life we had in the past! Think about the life we’re living now. We should be grateful!” Zhao Xiu said.
Only by being grateful would one be able to work steadily without letting wealth get to one’s head.
