After Being Reborn and Regaining Her Identity, the True Heiress Is Spoiled in the Seventies-Chapter 49: Blatant provocations
Chapter 49
"An ZhiAng..."
Seeing that An ZhiAng was not speaking, ZhiXia called out to him again, her tone containing a hint of coquetry.
An ZhiAng helplessly sighed, "Alright, I'll do as you say. I'll just stay here and won't go anywhere. If they dare bully you, just yell loudly and your fourth brother will come crashing in immediately. Your fourth brother has trained for this and can easily handle three to five burly men..."
Although there was some exaggeration in these words, An ZhiAng spoke forcefully, not letting anyone see through his boastful words.
An ZhiAng also glanced threateningly at Gao Second Sister, causing her heart to tremble.
"I won't bully little Grass," she now only yearned that as long as she didn't bully herself, everything would be fine. fre𝚎w𝐞bn𝗼v𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝗼𝚖
Of course, after hearing that An ZhiAng would not be coming in, she also secretly breathed a sigh of relief.
Little Grass had always been timid since she was young. Even with someone backing her up, she probably wouldn't dare do anything to them alone.
Gao Second Sister could also clearly see the situation. Things had reached this point, she would not foolishly continue to bully ZhiXia, as that would only draw more resentment.
"What little Grass, my sister is now called ZhiXia, An ZhiXia, got it?" Hearing the two words 'little grass', An ZhiAng thought of the grievances his little sister had suffered and felt upset.
"I understand, it's ZhiXia, ZhiXia." Finding herself at a disadvantage, Gao Second Sister naturally did not dare to refute.
As her footsteps entered the door, ZhiXia glanced indifferently at Gao Second Sister, "Second sister, close the door first. I have a few words I want to say to you and big brother."
Hearing ZhiXia was still willing to call her second sister, Gao Second Sister's gaze flickered. She closed the door, completely blocking An ZhiAng's line of sight.
After walking into the room, Gao Second Sister asked, "ZhiXia, you came back this time to..."
"I came back to take care of some things. You should all know that my household registration has been moved to the city. From now on I'm considered a city person too." ZhiXia smiled, her burning gaze fixed on Gao Second Sister, "Big brother and second sister...how have you been recently?"
The gloating in her eyes made Gao Dalin both ashamed and angry. "How we've been, don't you know better than anyone? High little Grass, mom and dad raised you for so many years. Even if they didn't give you a life of luxury, at least they didn't let you starve to death right? And now you've brought our family to this state. Has your conscience been eaten by dogs?"
Gao Second Sister angrily tugged on him. She apologized to ZhiXia, "Don't listen to big brother's nonsense ZhiXia. He's just in a bad mood after calling off his engagement. Please don't blame us!"
This idiot, can't he see what the situation is? Is now the time to lecture about conscience?
If it were her, and someone had swapped her excellent background and made her suffer before selling her off, she would have wished ruin upon that person's family too.
It had to be said, Gao Second Sister was smarter than Gao Dalin.
"Big brother's words are unreasonable. It's not my fault the Gao family has become like this. After all, I'm still the victim here, aren't I?" ZhiXia asked them, "If you want to blame someone, shouldn't you blame the person who gained benefits but did not care about you at all? After all, the reason you've fallen to this state is so that someone else could live a good life."
This aligned perfectly with what Gao Second Sister was thinking. She knew ZhiXia's purpose, but still shamedly felt moved.
That's right, they didn't dare cling to An ZhiXia because they knew An's family would definitely not let them off. They wished they could be as inconspicuous as possible under the An family's watch.
But An MeiYun was different.
She was responsible for a large part of the family's current state. And Gao Second Sister still held her weaknesses in hand, so she wouldn't dare not obediently submit.
To tell the truth, if An MeiYun hadn't taken the initiative to contact the family, dad and mom wouldn't have thought to find her so early. Although An ZhiXia was unpopular at home two years ago, her situation was still far from as miserable as the past two years, even reaching the point of wanting her dead.
All of this was clearly An MeiYun's idea for An ZhiXia to suffer misfortune.
Yet now the family was in dire straits while she remained unscathed, still enjoying the An family's doting. It was truly too unfair.
Seeing through ZhiXia's aim, Gao Second Sister also understood she wanted to incite her to fight against An MeiYun, and so she temporarily didn't fear retaliation from her.
Moreover, she seemed to have ideas for negotiating terms.
"Little sister, I never knew you were this clever before." Gao Second Sister smiled gently, the corners of her lips curving up, "Using us to deal with An MeiYun is not out of the question, but to make a horse run, you still have to feed it some grass first, right?"
ZhiXia would not fall for her tricks. "I didn't say to use you to deal with An MeiYun. I just reminded you to find the right person if you want to obtain actual benefits. I've said my piece, whether you go or not is your business."
She glanced around the bare Gao house. Even the tables, chairs, benches, and boards were gone. The only thing left in the room was the three-legged stool with a broken leg.
"Tsk, it seems big brother's and second sister's days have been rather difficult. But this way...I can rest assured!"
ZhiXia had a leisurely expression, lazily showing her schadenfreude.
In the past, if Gao Dalin and Gao Second Sister were even a little unhappy, they would have laid hands on her already. But now they could only resent her in their hearts, not even daring to show dissatisfaction on their faces before ZhiXia.
In just over a month, the gaunt sallow girl had blossomed. The simple shirt and pants could not conceal her transcendent temperament. Her curved brows and eyes added some soft charm.
Yet her words remained so annoying. Brazenly provocative, yet leaving them helpless.
The moment ZhiXia opened the door, An ZhiAng who was eavesdropping outside stumbled and nearly fell to the ground.
Looking up to see his little sister's teasing expression, even someone with skin as thick as An ZhiAng's face reddened a little.
He smacked his hands and chuckled twice, concealing his embarrassment. "Little sister, you're done talking to them? Can we leave now?"
He had wanted to listen in on their conversation but not only did he not hear a word, he got caught red-handed. How embarrassing!
ZhiXia knew he must be very awkward but did not expose him. "We're done. Let's go to grandma's house now."
Inside the house, Gao Second Sister watched that merciless back view with complicated emotions.
She was all too familiar with the past High little Grass, yet now it was truly hard to believe that the once inconspicuous little Grass could become so dazzling after just a short month.
Not only her looks, even the temperament of her entire being had undergone an earth-shattering change.
