Return of the Antagonistic Lady Boss

Chapter 286: Chapter 274: Struggle to the End

Qian ignited the flames of war between Apo and the old rogue with just a few words.

This stemmed from Qian’s precise grasp of details; she could deduce the gist with just a glance.

She had heard the old rogue say that Apo was widowed, and in such an area with an extremely high rate of bachelors, someone would remain widowed.

There should be two scenarios: one is loyalty and affection for the deceased husband, the other is a compelling reason that she cannot leave.

But regardless of the reason, chastity must be viewed significantly; if she pokes at people’s hearts with this, it’s no wonder a fight breaks out.

Qian guessed correctly.

Apo belonged to the second type.

Apo had been widowed here for many years not because she was particularly loyal.

Rather, her deceased husband’s family was too powerful, with many people watching; if they knew she had done such a thing, she would face severe punishment.

The awkward expression on the old rogue’s face also made Qian’s lips curl.

Older bachelors, except those particularly wealthy, how many are normal? Can a normal person be left alone? This old man tried to flirt with her immediately; for such a lecher, peeking at a widow changing clothes or showering is too normal. Even if he hasn’t done it, with that character, it wouldn’t be unfair to accuse him.

She knew it was correct to provoke towards this direction.

Apo swung her whip towards the old rogue, and after being struck, he refused to back down and grabbed a brick from the ground, hitting her back. Apo screamed when she was hit on the shoulder by the brick, but immediately fought back.

This rogue versus rogue, idiot versus idiot drama, delighted Qian.

Fight, no matter who fights whom between these two villains, it’s always pleasing to watch.

The stubborn old woman used the whip for long-range attacks to compensate for the power gap, but the old rogue didn’t show weakness as he swung the brick, hitting Apo’s shoulder and chest twice, both were bleeding.

Serves them right, truly they deserve it!

Qian is extremely vengeful.

If someone hits her once, she’ll make them pay half their life; Apo merely touched her and ended up being handled with double retaliation. Apo’s injuries hurt much more than Qian’s.

While Apo and the old rogue were fighting, Qian stood on the side; her hands were tied but her legs could run, yet she didn’t run.

The village is all the same, the whole village watched ”the goods”; she couldn’t escape, and would still be hit.

Qian just stood there, cheerfully watching them brawl; such a bruising fight was absolutely thrilling.

Wouldn’t mind beating one dead, two perishing together would be great.

Apo, after all, was a woman; being hit, bruised, and hurt, while fearing Qian might escape, in her distracted moment, she was punched on the nose by the old rogue causing blood to flow over her face.

Qian couldn’t be happier.

Xiaoyu originally wanted to say seeing blood was her aunt, but the fool was provoked by Qian into fighting, and Apo even got bloodied!

If such a great opportunity wasn’t used, it wouldn’t do justice to Qian’s intelligence.

”Huang showed her spirit, Huang predicted, seeing blood seeing blood!” Qian yelled at the top of her lungs.

Following the local customs, even this boss had to cooperate with pretending to be a shaman.

Qian shouted loudly, attracting two people descending the mountain with baskets; they happened to be relatives from Apo’s deceased husband’s side.

”Old third’s wife, what’s going on?” One hurried over, and the old rogue fled quickly seeing things weren’t good.

This man holding a hoe was Apo’s deceased husband’s eldest brother, the village tyrant, particularly fearsome.

He dares to bully men and women alike; Apo didn’t dare remarry out of fear of him.

”Huang showed her spirit, Huang said this old rogue peeked at her bathing! She attempted to remarry!”

Qian’s words made the man carrying the hoe’s face tense, glaring at Apo, who then knelt with a thud.

”Brother, I didn’t! She’s talking nonsense!”

”Whether it’s nonsense, ask those who saw Huang’s apparition, the whole village saw it!”

Clearly it was the whole village watching Shi Touyu’s sham antics; Qian spoke as if the whole village saw Apo wanting to remarry. Qian was expert at sowing discord.

The village tyrant kicked in anger, sending Apo sitting on the ground with one butt, then slapped her face!

”Shameless! Want to remarry, restless at your age! Keep the account for settling at home!”

Apo’s face was slapped into a soy sauce shop, continuously begging for mercy.

Qian inwardly said a big ”hehe.”

Those who bully the weak, in front of someone stronger, are just pathetic; serves them right!

The village tyrant pointed at the man with him, ”Second, go deal with that old rogue, get up, shameful person!”

Turning to Qian, his eyes showed viciousness as if he wanted to hit Qian for her mouthiness.

”Huang said, whoever hits me will be childless, cut off completely. If you don’t believe, ask this woman who’ve defied her wifely virtues how she got beaten!” Qian knew at such times, cowardice would invite a beating.

She saw murderous intent in the vicious old man’s eyes; if she spoke wrongly, he could hit her with the hoe.

Now it was gambling, seeing whether he was superstitious; Qian noticed the hoe had red cloth tied to it, guessing he was superstitious.

Thanking Shi Touyu for tying red cloth to the bed during hauntings; it gave Qian some common knowledge.

This hoe should have killed something, like snakes or weasels.

But actually, it had killed something more powerful and terrifying.

Indeed, the vicious old man turned to Apo, ”What does she mean?”

”This is the daughter-in-law I bought, brother, you know. She’s talking rubbish, this jinx, brought no good upon arrival!”

Apo was beaten bloody; now she’s scared, Huang wasn’t wrong, blood was seen.

She raised the whip wanting to hit Qian, Qian seeing this knew these people were fooled by her.

”Hit, you hit me once, Huang will return ten hits to your son, try hitting! You hitting me means cursing your son to die, you want to remarry!”

”What nonsense are you saying! Don’t curse my son!”

The son being referred to is a foolish child.

”Blood was seen, still don’t believe, then hit. The more you hit, the more blood will be seen, come on.”

Qian showed a smile, this was just the beginning.

With a strong intellect, calm judgment, and heaven’s luck, Qian successfully escaped physical suffering.

Her words made Apo afraid to touch her; besides viciousness, Apo’s gaze carried some unknown fear.

Especially at these times, cowardice must not be shown.

So Qian used all her calmness, with a carefree manner, even with the stance of a queen, and walked back with Apo.

Though at this moment, she didn’t feel as calm as she appeared; the vicious old man followed.

His presence made every pore of Qian’s erect; she knew he was terrifying, her intuition told her, but no matter how terrifying, she must face him head-on, fight to the end!
