Chapter 69: The Fox Takes
Advantage of the Tiger Shu Erniang was almost applauding her own cleverness.
"Mom, is this okay?" Li Zihao felt something was wrong and asked hesitantly.
"You are stupid. She is a married woman and is worthless. What's more, she has been married to the Rong family for only twenty days and she has already killed all men. No one will dare to marry her in the future. She can only marry you, so we must set some rules for her now!" It has to be said that Shu Erniang has a big imagination. Whenever she thinks of Shu Wan's arrogant attitude recently, she gets furious. She is determined to teach Shu Wan a lesson and let her know the rules.
"Mom is right!" After thinking about it, Li Zihao came to his senses and felt that this was indeed the case. "Then I will leave her alone for a few days. When she is anxious, I will show up again. She will definitely regard me as her life-saving straw." Whenever Li Zihao thought of Shu Wan's humble and fawning appearance in front of him, he couldn't help feeling elated.
"That's right. Besides, I don't want her to be your wife." Shu Erniang's eyes were almost growing to the sky. "She is an unknown person. How can she be qualified to be your wife? It's a compliment to her to welcome her as a concubine!" In Shu Erniang's opinion, no one is worthy of her son.
"What can Shu Wan do?" Li Zihao felt that this would not work. "With Shu Wan's temper, she would definitely overturn the table if she were to become a concubine. Mother, I think, why don't we just reluctantly welcome her into the house as a principal wife, and then after we get her property, I can take as many concubines as I want, right?" It was normal for a man to have three or four wives. By then, even if he took in eight or ten concubines, Shu Wan would not dare to say anything.
"Hmph!" Shu Er Niang snorted coldly, "How can she be worthy? Just wait and see, sooner or later I will find a reason to divorce her. If it weren't for the fact that she has some family property, I wouldn't even want a woman like this to be my wife even if she was given to me for free!" Shu Er Niang hated Shu Wan, and the hatred emanated from her bones.
"Yes, yes, Mom, I'll listen to you!" As a mama's boy, Li Zihao would never refute his mother. Whatever Shu Er Niang said was the truth.
After coaxing Shu Er Niang, Li Zihao went out to drink and gamble.
He called over a few friends and spent lavishly in the restaurant. He looked very happy and kept saying that he had plenty of money. He asked everyone to eat as much as they wanted, as if he was afraid that others would not know that he was about to become rich.
After three rounds of drinks, these people started to flatter him.
"Mr. Li, as the saying goes, people feel refreshed when good things happen to them. Looking at you like this, is good things about to happen?" The person who spoke was a gangster who usually ate and drank for free. When he saw this opportunity, he naturally hugged Li Zihao's thighs tightly.
"Don't talk nonsense, there is no good thing." Li Zihao said modestly, but the smile on his face could not be hidden at all. Everyone could understand the smug look on his face.
"Mr. Li, please don't be so modest. We brothers have all heard that the eldest sister of the Shu family rushed back to her parents' home without stopping in order to be with you. Look at her feelings for you. It's really enviable!"
Immediately someone else laughed and joked.
"Although the eldest daughter of the Shu family has been married once, but considering her looks, she would definitely be very popular, let alone the second marriage, even the third or fourth marriage. Just thinking about bullying such a delicate little beauty makes one's blood boil, hahaha!" Li Zihao usually makes friends with some questionable people, so naturally he speaks in a vulgar manner.
As soon as these words were spoken, everyone burst into laughter!
Hearing this, Li Zihao was furious. These people were clearly mocking him, saying that he had picked up someone else's worn-out shoes.
"What a bunch of useless guys!" Li Zihao yelled angrily, "You're just an unwanted withered flower. Why do you talk like she's a fairy?" Li Zihao looked down on Shu Wan from the bottom of his heart. He felt that Shu Wan was very lucky to be able to accept him.
She was an unwanted slut, but he was willing to accept her, which was already a blessing to her!
"Yes, yes, Master Li is right!" Seeing that he looked unhappy, the others quickly began to speak nice words to flatter him, "For Master Li, naturally he would not take a girl like Miss Shu seriously, but you brothers are humble and have never seen the world, so naturally you think she is the best. Master Li, don't bother with you brothers, it's your fault for being short-sighted. Please be more forgiving, more forgiving!" This person kept speaking nice words, and Li Zihao's expression finally eased a little.
"That's right, Mr. Li, you should be magnanimous and don't bother with your brothers." The others also apologized softly.
After all, Li Zihao is currently their primary target of currying favor. He is the future son-in-law of the Shu family. If they can hold on to this thigh, they will enjoy endless wealth and glory.
Just plucking a few hairs from Li Zihao would be enough for them to live on for a year.
If they don't flatter such a person, who else can they flatter? "Mr. Li, please forgive me. I am short-sighted and a frog in a well. I thought that Miss Shu was the most beautiful in the world. I didn't expect that Mr. Li was the one who had really seen the world. So I offended Mr. Li. Mr. Li, just treat me like a fart and let me go!" The man who said Shu Wan was a beauty before apologized and begged for mercy in a humble manner, and his attitude was obvious.
"We are all brothers, it's too formal to say such things!" Li Zihao, whose vanity was greatly satisfied, said with an expression that said, "I don't blame you, you are just overthinking it." He waved his hand to show that he would not care. "But I tell you, I really despise people like Shu Wan, but because she is my uncle's daughter and she is eager to throw herself at me, I have no choice but to accept her. We can't break up with each other, we are all relatives." He began to brag to everyone. Although he said that he was extremely reluctant, his expression and tone were too obvious.
"Yes, yes, yes." Everyone agreed with him, "Mr. Li has a kind heart!"
"Well, as you all know, my uncle has no son, so there is no one to inherit his huge family fortune. So, he planned to give all his property to me after a hundred years, but he is worried about his daughter Shu Wan, so he insists on entrusting her to me. I have no choice but to obey the elder's instructions. Hey, look at this, what is going on!" His chin was almost raised to the sky.
Everyone looked down on Li Zihao for pretending to be helpless, and felt that it was too hypocritical.
But they couldn't say this out loud, they could only curse in their hearts while flattering with a smile!
After eating and drinking, Li Zihao prepared to go to the gambling house.
A group of people supported the drunk Li Zihao and walked towards the gambling house.
On the road, Li Zihao, who was walking unsteadily, bumped into a civilian.
This was originally his!
But he kicked it in anger.
"Are you blind? Why did you bump into me for no reason? Are you tired of living? Do you know who you bumped into?" He is such a noble man, how can he be touched by ordinary people? The people who were kicked to the ground by him really didn't know who he was. He covered his chest which was in great pain and stood up tremblingly.
"It wasn't me who bumped into you, but you bumped into me. No matter how noble your status is, you can't confuse right and wrong like this!" The citizen who was hit couldn't believe that such a scoundrel would appear in the city. Under Rong Chen's governance, the public security in Blackwater City was very good, so he didn't believe that anyone would dare to be so bold.
"You are looking for death, so I will grant your wish! You lowly pariah, teach him a lesson so that he will remember it!" How could Li Zihao accept being humiliated in front of so many people, so he immediately pointed at the person who was hit and cursed.
After receiving his instructions, or perhaps to curry his favor, a group of people rushed forward and started punching and kicking the people who were hit.
In order to show their loyalty to Li Zihao, they put in a lot of effort.
"Do you know who you offended today? He is Master Li, the son-in-law of the Shu family. Do you want to die if you offend him? Today I will show you what happens if you offend Master Li!"
Soon, the people who were hit were lying on the ground covered in blood, motionless.
The sight of blood stimulated Li Zihao's confused brain to become much clearer. Although the words sounded nice, only he himself knew how much fictional content was contained in them. Therefore, he was still afraid of someone losing their life and being sued for murder.
"Stop, stop, stop, that's enough, don't kill anyone." He had a look of amnesty on his face and waved to them to stop.
After receiving the order, the people who were beating people stopped and retreated to his side. Looking at the people sleeping on the ground and dying, they were still a little scared. What if they were arrested and thrown into jail because of beating people today? However, this thought only lasted for a short moment, because they believed that Li Zihao was protecting them, and they were all venting their anger for Li Zihao.
"You're lucky today that Li Shaogao has spared you. If it happens again, I'll kill you!" Someone cursed at the people whose consciousness was on the verge of collapse.
"You should thank me. I don't like fighting and killing. Today I will teach you a small lesson and let you go for now. But next time I won't be so easy on you!" Li Zihao pointed at the people and said arrogantly.
His lackeys immediately chimed in, praising him for how magnanimous, kind and friendly he was.
After they had enough of talking nonsense, Li Zihao and the others continued to walk forward, ready to go to the gambling house to play a few rounds! As they walked, they laughed loudly and cursed the common people for not knowing how to live or die, and actually dared to say that it was Li Zihao who hit him.
His words were full of vulgar language, and he brought up other people's parents and ancestors. It seemed that the louder he cursed, the more glorious he was.
