Chapter 10 : Pick It Up
Being knocked by Yan Xi, the table swayed and almost flipped over. The beef that had yet to be eaten rolled on the floor, leaving a trail of sticky gravy.
A woman’s harsh and vicious voice sounded behind her.
“Oh, is my sister coming back just to steal some food? If the Gu family is not giving you food, then you can beg me. Once I’m pleased, I might even give you some of Felix’s food.”
A sharp and unkind female voice was heard. Yan Xi wiped the blood from the corner of her mouth and looked back.
In front of her was the youngest daughter of the Yan family—Yan Qi.
At the age of twenty, she neither went to school nor went to work. Every day, she stayed at home, only eating and lying in bed. She was getting fatter and fatter, and her skin was getting worse. Even expensive cosmetics could not cover the pimple marks and flaws on her face.
And Felix was Yan Qi’s pet dog.
Yan Xi sneered and her dark eyes landed on Yan Qi.
“Pick it up!” Yan Xi said coldly.
“What did you say?”
“Pick up the beef on the floor!”
“How dare you order me around!” Yan Qi glared at her, the fat on her face jiggling. “You little b*tch who doesn’t know the immensity of heaven and earth. Do you think you can become a phoenix just because you married into the Gu family?”
She walked up to Yan Xi with a sinister smile. “I think you’ve forgotten what pain feels like.”
Yan Qi’s ruthlessness was even worse than Luo Yun’s. When she was young, the Host was covered in injuries all because of Yan Qi.
In junior high, Yan Qi cut the Host’s face with a pair of scissors because she was jealous.
As soon as she recalled this memory, her body could not help but tremble.
While she was thinking, Yan Qi had already pounced at her.
Yan Xi nimbly dodged to her back and kicked the fat knee.
Yan Qi let out a cry of pain. Her body swayed and she fell to the ground with a thud, her face pressed against the piece of beef that had fallen.
“Yan Xi!” She struggled to stand up, panting as she scolded, “You little b*tch, how dare you hit me! I will definitely scratch your face with my knife!”
“Pick up my beef”
“What the heck are you talking about?” As soon as she said that, Yan Qi fell to the ground again. With a clang, the table next to her was shaken.
“If you don’t pick it up, I won’t let you get back up tonight.”
Yan Qi shouted angrily. This time, before she could get up, Yan Xi kicked her again.
“Hurry up.” Yan Xi was very impatient. “I don’t have time to waste here with you!”
Yan Qi twisted her body and found that she couldn’t stand up at all. Yan Xi was a thin and weak woman. Where did she get such strength from?
“Hurry up and pick it up!”
Yan Xi kicked her, and Yan Qi was now so scared that she had to listen and pick up the beef.
“I’ve picked it up,” Yan Qi shouted. “Let me up.”
“It’s exhausting getting up on your own.” Yan Xi smiled beside her ear. “Let me help you.”
With that, she grabbed Yan Qi’s hair and pulled her up.
Yan Qi’s hair was pulled back, and her face was lifted up. Her lips were curved, and she was saying all kinds of ugly words.
“You little bitch, you’re just like your mother! I’m going to kill you later!”
Yan Xi’s smile disappeared. In her original world, she and her mother depended on each other for survival. In order to support her in her studies, her mother had worked hard for most of her life.
What she could not tolerate the most was others insulting her mother.
Yan Xi put on a chilling smile and pressed her fork against Yan Qi’s face.
“What a pity. Luo Yun isn’t here now.. Even if I kill you, no one will come out to stop me.”
