The Spirited Daughter-in-law and the Mountain Man

Chapter 416: 416 Li Gui doesn’t want her to have a good time



“It won’t be long before you know what a swan is,” Su Qingyue snorted. Her appearance had always been extremely beautiful. Once the sores and pus on her face healed, she vowed to blind the village dogs with envy.

Unexpectedly, even people in ancient times knew that an ugly duckling could turn into a swan. Truly an aesthetically pleasing story passed down from ancient times…

She, Su Qingyue, must become an unfeathered duckling that turns into a soaring swan.

Glancing at the man who emerged from the forked road next to her, wasn’t it Li Gui?

She spoke directly, “Li Gui, just now Liu Xiaohong was insisting on marrying you.”

“Su Qingyue, you’re talking nonsense! When did I ever say I wanted to marry Brother Li Gui?” Liu Xiaohong panicked.

Qingyue scoffed, “So you just won’t marry him then?”

Liu Xiaohong was both angry and tender in front of her crush, wanting to curse dead Su Qingyue but fearing to scare Li Gui away, her fierceness turned soft, “Brother Li Gui… I… I.

She stuttered for half a day without finishing her sentence.

Li Gui stood tall and expressionless, “Sister Liu, don’t worry. It’s a good thing you’re not willing to marry me. I never intended to marry you either.”

“You…” Liu Xiaohong clutched her handkerchief, eyes red with anger. She glared at Su Qingyue hatefully, “It’s all your fault!”

“Oh?” Su Qingyue covered her mouth and chuckled quietly, “The man doesn’t want you, ‘swan’, and you blame me? How do you have the nerve?”

Li Gui originally thought that whether or not he married Liu Xiaohong was none of Su Qingyue’s business, but he couldn’t let her off easily when remembering how she’d tried to scare him. “At first, I thought sister Liu was a good person, but after hearing you speak ill of Su Qingyue, I can see that your character is not good. Therefore, I have no interest in marrying you.”

Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaohong glared at Su Qingyue, “It’s all your fault! You ruined my marriage proposal!”

“Woman without a brain,” Su Qingyue glanced at her disdainfully, “Can’t you hear that Li Gui is just using you to make me suffer?”

Li Gui raised an eyebrow, Su Qingyue was indeed clever.

With teary eyes, Liu Xiaohong fumed, “Su Qingyue, you’re hateful! You ruined my cousin Liu Xianglian’s reputation, and now you’re trying to frame me…”

Shaking her head, Su Qingyue replied, “You, Liu’s cousin sisters, really have no shame. You harm others first and then blame me. Any man who marries one of you busybodies would suffer bad luck. It’s good that Li Gui doesn’t marry you.”

She gave Li Gui a look, “At least you have good taste.”

Liu Xiaohong turned pale with rage, “Su Qingyue, you bitch…”

Narrowing her gaze, Qingyue said, “Try spitting out the word after that?” Liu Xiaohong was frightened by her icy stare and hesitated to curse.

Upon seeing Qingyue’s cold and stern glance, Li Gui inexplicably felt uneasy, too. He sensed that this woman was not to be provoked, but it only made him desire her more.

Liu Xiaohong gazed at Li Gui’s handsome brows and eyes. Despite the shame of what had just happened, she couldn’t bear to leave a bad impression on her crush, “Brother Li Gui… don’t listen to Su Qingyue. I’m usually very gentle.”

Qingyue glanced at the little bastard on the ground, “Just like this little bastard, right?”

“Woof…” The little bastard looked at its owner and timely whined.

Li Gui was amused by the woman and the dog but ignored Liu Xiaohong.

Liu Xiaohong’s face turned from white to green with anger, “You have no manners, comparing me to a dog!”

“Oh, Miss Liu, your tongue is really sharp!”
