Fully Leveled Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Chapter 1603: Chapter 1603: Dog Eat Dog

Who would have thought that the maid named Ying Xi would seize the opportunity and viciously beat him up.

Even now, Ge Qifei feels sore all over when he thinks about it.

He also heard Ying Xi say that if he continued to pester Lanhua, Zhang Shu’s fate would be his fate.

Zhang Shu had his tongue cut out, his eyes poked blind, and went mad, killing his own mother, and was already beheaded.

Although there was no evidence, Ge Qifei felt that Lu Shuyu was behind all of this.

What ended up happening was that that fool Xu Cai still tried to sow discord in front of their sisters?

“What were you thinking?”

“What was I thinking? Wasn’t I just trying to get some revenge for you? You clearly said she threatened you. So I stirred things up between Lanhua and her, wasn’t that exactly what you wanted?”

Ge Qifei sneered, “Oh, really? Is that all there was to it?”

Xu Cai instantly fell silent. Of course, that wasn’t all. She was wildly jealous of Lanhua in her heart.

Yes, she and Lanhua used to be good friends. When they were kids, she even felt sorry for Lanhua. Her family was dirt poor, yet her biased grandmother still used their family’s resources to help her second uncle’s family, who had lost their daughter, and then Sanzhu was a total slacker.

But everything changed overnight. The girl from the second family came back, even opened a shop, and found work for Sanzhu.

As the days for the Lu family visibly improved, Xu Cai started to feel increasingly unbalanced.

When the second family of the Lu family left Jiangyuan County and handed Yiren Pavilion over to Lu Daniu to manage, Xu Cai’s view of Lanhua changed.

However, what really brought this imbalance to a peak was when the Ge family came to the Lu family to propose marriage.

She had met Ge Qifei. Although Ge Qifei was thin and weak, he was quite good-looking. Xu Cai had noticed him before Lanhua did, but the Ge family chose the Lu family.

Because at that time, Lu Daniu had become a shopkeeper, and Lu Erniu was studying, while Cuihua’s in-laws also ran a shop in town.

The two families quickly got engaged, and Xu Cai particularly hated Lanhua for it.

Then, unexpectedly, the situation took a turn. Lu Shuyu was exiled, and the Ge family went to break off the engagement, while Lanhua hid at home, seeing no one.

Xu Cai was exceptionally excited, thinking she had another chance.

And indeed, wasn’t she with Ge Qifei now? She had met Lanhua’s fiancé, the one named Yu Fenglin, who was tall and robust, but had a fierce-looking face. Such a person might get violent if displeased.

Xu Cai felt she had gained some ground in this matter.

But Ge Qifei didn’t see it that way. He didn’t want to be enemies with Lu Shuyu at all. Ever since the engagement with Lanhua was called off, many people knew he had offended Monarch Lu Xiang. Everyone avoided their family whenever possible.

He was the youngest son in the family, once deeply loved, but now he received complaints from his brothers and sisters-in-law. Life was much worse than before.

To make matters worse, no matchmakers dared to visit and propose marriages for him. Even if they did, the women introduced were nothing but rotten apples.

Ge Qifei was depressed and started drowning his sorrows in alcohol. His craving had grown significantly, which is why today he asked Xu Cai to secretly get some good wine.

Originally, he hadn’t intended to be with Xu Cai. She was from Shangshi Village and was once good friends with Lanhua. How awkward would it be if they met in the future?

But then again, he had no better options. Xu Cai was reasonably good-looking, and her family wasn’t too bad.

Plus, she had deep feelings for him, which gave Ge Qifei a great sense of accomplishment.
