âIt wonât be long before you know what a swan is,â 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 timesâ¦
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, wasnât it Li Gui?
She spoke directly, âLi Gui, just now Liu Xiaohong was insisting on marrying you.â
âSu Qingyue, youâre talking nonsense! When did I ever say I wanted to marry Brother Li Gui?â Liu Xiaohong panicked.
Qingyue scoffed, âSo you just wonât marry him then?â
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, âBrother Li Gui⦠I⦠I.
She stuttered for half a day without finishing her sentence.
Li Gui stood tall and expressionless, âSister Liu, donât worry. Itâs a good thing youâre not willing to marry me. I never intended to marry you either.â
âYouâ¦â Liu Xiaohong clutched her handkerchief, eyes red with anger. She glared at Su Qingyue hatefully, âItâs all your fault!â
âOh?â Su Qingyue covered her mouth and chuckled quietly, âThe man doesnât want you, âswanâ, and you blame me? How do you have the nerve?â
Li Gui originally thought that whether or not he married Liu Xiaohong was none of Su Qingyueâs business, but he couldnât let her off easily when remembering how sheâd tried to scare him. âAt 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.â n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
Upon hearing this, Liu Xiaohong glared at Su Qingyue, âItâs all your fault! You ruined my marriage proposal!â
âWoman without a brain,â Su Qingyue glanced at her disdainfully, âCanât you hear that Li Gui is just using you to make me suffer?â
Li Gui raised an eyebrow, Su Qingyue was indeed clever.
With teary eyes, Liu Xiaohong fumed, âSu Qingyue, youâre hateful! You ruined my cousin Liu Xianglianâs reputation, and now youâre trying to frame meâ¦â
Shaking her head, Su Qingyue replied, âYou, Liuâs 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. Itâs good that Li Gui doesnât marry you.â
She gave Li Gui a look, âAt least you have good taste.â
Liu Xiaohong turned pale with rage, âSu Qingyue, you bitchâ¦â
Narrowing her gaze, Qingyue said, âTry spitting out the word after that?â Liu Xiaohong was frightened by her icy stare and hesitated to curse.
Upon seeing Qingyueâs 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 Guiâs handsome brows and eyes. Despite the shame of what had just happened, she couldnât bear to leave a bad impression on her crush, âBrother Li Gui⦠donât listen to Su Qingyue. Iâm usually very gentle.â
Qingyue glanced at the little bastard on the ground, âJust like this little bastard, right?â
âWoofâ¦â 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 Xiaohongâs face turned from white to green with anger, âYou have no manners, comparing me to a dog!â
âOh, Miss Liu, your tongue is really sharp!â
