Chapter 160 Holy Father, Prepare to Die (9)
Upon hearing this, Li Shi's face flushed red. The reason was simple: all the money he had earned that year had been used to help others, leaving him with no spare cash.
"I…"
Li Shi wanted to refute Xia Mingwei's words, but found that he couldn't seem to say anything.
In any other family, this kind of business would have allowed them to accumulate a considerable fortune. He wasn't stupid; he knew about their financial situation when his parents were still alive.
Now that he's in charge of the business, with the connections his parents left behind, the business will only get better, not worse.
But over the years, he hadn't even had a single tael of silver. Now, with Xia Mingwei forcibly pressing his head down to face this fact, he felt extremely ashamed.
Li Shi felt as if Xia Mingwei had ruthlessly ripped off his face and repeatedly rubbed it on the ground. This infuriated him, who had always been the undisputed ruler at home.
"Even if I don't have the money to pay back, so what? Aren't we all family? Your money is mine too, so what's there to be so petty about!"
Hearing Li Shi's words, Xia Mingwei silently applauded his shamelessness.
Here it comes, here it comes, this self-righteous moral blackmail rhetoric has finally arrived!
"According to your logic, why don't you go to your uncle's house in the neighboring town and ask him for money? Aren't you all family, connected by blood? What's wrong with asking him for some money to spend?"
Xia Mingwei was merciless in her words, pointing out all the messy things that had happened to the Li family.
"I bet even if you went to their door, they wouldn't pay you any attention! After all, who wants to associate with a relative who's not quite right in the head? You can't even get money from your own blood relatives, yet you try to take the hard-earned money I've worked so hard for! You're not stupid, are you? Otherwise, why would you think of 'picking on the weak'? You're so subservient to outsiders, but when you turn around, you ruthlessly scheme against your own partner. Li Shi, you're utterly shameless!"
Li Shi was enraged when Xia Mingwei hit the nail on the head, exposing his pretense. He wanted nothing more than to teach Xia Mingwei a lesson, to show her what it meant for a husband to be the head of the household and what a woman's duty was!
He suddenly went berserk, wanting to take advantage of Xia Mingwei's inattention and use his natural male strength to subdue her.
Unfortunately, his expectations were far from ideal, and he miscalculated. The Xia Mingwei of today is no longer the weak and easily bullied original owner of this body; she is now Niu Hulu Xia Mingwei, who has come to claim his life.
Contrary to expectations, Xia Mingwei begged for mercy. Instead, the moment Li Shi's slap landed, Xia Mingwei dodged to the side with lightning speed.
Seeing that he had missed his target, Li Shi became even more aggressive. He charged forward again, looking determined to severely injure Xia Mingwei.
Li Shi originally expected Xia Mingwei to show signs of panic and fear, but to his surprise, none of these expressions appeared.
If Li Shi had looked more closely, he would have noticed that Xia Mingwei's eyes did not reflect fear, but rather a hint of excitement, as if she had been looking forward to this moment for a long time.
When Li Shi was half a meter away from her, Xia Mingwei finally couldn't hold back and kicked him!
Xia Mingwei didn't hold back when she kicked, but used all her strength.
With a loud thud, Li Shi was kicked to the ground. Due to Xia Mingwei's unrestrained strength, he suddenly coughed up a mouthful of blood.
He lay on the ground, raised his head, his mouth filled with the taste of rust, and asked indistinctly, "You are not my wife. She doesn't have your skills. Who are you?"
Xia Mingwei walked up to him, looking down at him. Then she squatted down, patted his cheek, and said with a smile, "Oh dear, you actually found out! Congratulations on discovering this secret, but unfortunately there's no reward!"
At this moment, Xiao Ba was also shouting in his mind: Host, didn't you say that we can't let them find out our identities?
Xia Mingwei: Because I've discovered a better way, it's fine for him to know!
Xia Mingwei took out the pills she had collected from her spatial storage and approached Li Shi step by step.
Although Li Shi didn't know how the person in front of him had suddenly produced the pill, nor did he know what the pill was for, based on his years of experience, he knew it was definitely not a good thing.
He grabbed anything he could throw and hurled it at Xia Mingwei with all his might, trying to slow her down and prevent her from getting any closer.
Unfortunately for him, Xia Mingwei had already guessed his intentions, so she easily dodged the attacks.
Li Shi struggled to his feet, trying to escape the house and seek help from outsiders. In his mind, the person before him was either an imposter pretending to be Xia Mingwei, or the real Xia Mingwei possessed by a ghost. Either way, it would be detrimental to him!
Xia Mingwei understood the principle of "cutting the weeds by pulling out the roots." Today, Li Shi had already discovered her true colors. If she softened her heart and let him go today, she would probably be arrested and severely tortured as a monster tomorrow.
To avoid being at a disadvantage, silencing Li Shi is still very necessary! We can't let him die suddenly, but making him mute is still an option!
After all, a mute wouldn't reveal their secret. It's not too late to take action after some time, when others are less concerned about Li Shi, and send him to meet the King of Hell!
Thinking of this, Xia Mingwei became even more determined to poison Li Shi and make him mute.
Li Shi couldn't beat her, and he was kicked hard again, the pain making him weak all over.
Finally, Xia Mingwei grabbed his throat.
His survival instinct forced him to breathe through his mouth, and Xia Mingwei took advantage of the situation to put the pill into his mouth.
Li Shi stared wide-eyed in horror, struggling desperately, but he couldn't change the fact.
Seeing the pill enter her mouth, Xia Mingwei finally released her hand with satisfaction.
Upon regaining his breath of fresh air, Li Shi immediately tried to vomit the pill out of his throat.
However, this pill melts instantly in the mouth, making it a high-grade mute drug that leaves no visible signs of poisoning, so Li Shi's efforts were in vain.
Xia Ming watched with a smile as Li Shi struggled for a long time, only to end up vomiting nothing.
Li Shi turned around fiercely, looking at Xia Mingwei who was smiling, wanting to loudly question her about what exactly she had given him to eat.
As a result, he found that although he opened his mouth, he couldn't make any sound.
Realizing what had happened, Li Shi covered his mouth in disbelief. He couldn't believe he had become mute! He couldn't speak anymore!
And all of this was caused by the woman in front of us—Xia Mingwei.
