Transmigrated as Cannon Fodder — I Rise to Female Lead Through Hard Work-Chapter 135: The Roadblock

"It’s you, it’s all because of you..."

The sun has already set, leaving only the afterglow, making the narrow alley appear even darker. Yet Yi Roujing still recognized the person blocking her way at first glance, despite her disheveled hair and the malice overflowing in her eyes as she looked at her.

It hasn’t been long, how did Li Xipei turn into this?

"Li Xipei? What’s wrong with you?" Yi Roujing asked with a slight frown.

Her bloodshot eyes were raised, and she charged forward intending to attack. Yi Roujing, feeling somewhat helpless, lifted her right leg and kicked her away to create some distance.

"If you have something to say, then speak. If you want to fight, I won’t hold back, and you’ll be the one to suffer. You’re a smart person, think it through." Yi Roujing warned.

Li Xipei lay on the ground quietly for a while, "Hahaha—" came a burst of laughter tinged with sadness, and Yi Roujing sighed.

"What kind of shock did you receive, just make way, I need to go home." Yi Roujing was no saint, she didn’t feel the least bit sympathetic toward Li Xipei, no matter what happened to her.

"Ding Ancheng sure is protecting you." Li Xipei’s smile was uglier than crying, "Last time, I sent someone to the bamboo forest to cause trouble for you, and he immediately turned around and had people deal with me."

"Ruined my reputation, made me humiliated. Are you particularly proud right now?" Li Xipei slowly sat up, leaned her back against the wall, and looked at Yi Roujing full of anger and defiance.

"You’re really something, aren’t you? If I call you cowardly, you wanted to take my life; if I call you bold, you clearly like Ding Ancheng but won’t show it, won’t dare to say it out loud." Yi Roujing squatted down and faced Li Xipei, speaking.

"People claim you’re smart, the smartest in the Li Family, but as the saying goes, too smart for your own good. With your brains, you could do anything, but chose to do bad. How could you expect to remain unscathed?"

"Involving yourself with Wen Chaokuan, Song Yiluo and the likes, they were never trusting people, insisting on cooperation, what could there possibly be to gain?" Yi Roujing said calmly and dispassionately as she looked at Li Xipei.

Li Xipei stared directly at Yi Roujing, "Who are you?"

Yi Roujing raised an eyebrow, "You don’t know? The one who pushed me into the water was none other than you. I nearly lost my life, made a trip to the Yama Hall; I’m no longer the Yi Roujing I was before."

"I’ve inquired about you, dim-witted and ignorant. How could someone like that utter such words? I see, you’re not Yi Roujing, definitely possessed by a wandering spirit, hahahah, I’m going to tell Ding Ancheng, I’m going to tell Ding Ancheng." Li Xipei said, sounding slightly deranged.

She actually guessed correctly, but Yi Roujing didn’t show a bit of it on her face.

"Superstitions are not welcome, aren’t you afraid of getting criticized?" Yi Roujing rolled her eyes, "I used to want to be a sweet and innocent girl, but reality didn’t allow it, so I had to strive on. Initially, I wanted to deal with you, but Ding Ancheng beat me to it."

"Li Xipei, one last piece of advice: don’t judge by appearances, and do not rely on hearsay. Only by personal experience can you truly understand something."

As Yi Roujing stood up, several figures appeared in the alley, completely blocking both ends.

"Then I’ll give you some advice as well: those who have nothing to lose don’t fear those who have. I’m not having a good time, do you think I’ll let you have one?" Li Xipei stood up and said viciously, "Ding Ancheng is so fond of you, protects you, let’s see how he reacts when you become a ruined shoe, if he can still treat you well."

Among the people blocking the alley were Li Xijun and Li YunGen, and the other four were new faces to Yi Roujing, all looked like thugs.

"Li YunGen, you’re too vague, what do you mean by ’good-looking’? She’s a goddess, why didn’t you call me earlier for such a great thing, that’s really not cool."

"Be serious, this bitch has some martial skills." Li YunGen frowned and reminded.

"Six of us can’t handle one woman?"

"I’ll go first, I want to be the first to taste this girl’s flavor, wonder if it’s better than Li Xipei."

"Hey, hey, no way, I’m first."

...

"What are you being so verbose about?" Yi Roujing was somewhat annoyed, "Why not just all come at once?"

"This broad is so eager."

"Be careful, this bitch has got some skills." Li YunGen suddenly felt an urge to retreat.

Yi Roujing preferred to strike first, directly ran a few quick steps to the left. She stepped onto the narrow alley wall, leaped into the air, spun around, then swept her right leg across. "Thud, thud, thud," came the clear sound of heads hitting the ground, as the three blocking the left side of the alley fell together, groaning in pain.

That move made all the rest in the alley pause for a moment.

"You should be glad the ground is muddy." Yi Roujing didn’t intend to show mercy; eliminating some social toxins was a righteous deed.

Yet despite the muddy ground, that strike momentarily incapacitated the three on the ground.

Facing the right side now, Li YunGen and Li Xijun involuntarily took a step back.

"Li YunGen, you didn’t say this girl was so fierce."

"I did."

Yi Roujing made strides forward, a flash of silver appeared, and Yi Roujing flipped backward, hands grounding for support, followed by a flying kick, knocking away the knife sneaked by Li Xipei. She rotated once more to reopen some distance and whose extended right hand caught the knife steadily.

"Li Xipei, why must women make things hard for each other? You already said Ting Ancheng is the reason you’re like this, why not go after him, what’s your purpose with me?"

"I was just about to say, I thought you came after me alone because I was easy to bully. You brought so many people, why not try fighting or struggling?" 𝗳𝚛𝗲𝕖𝚠𝚎𝚋𝗻𝗼𝕧𝗲𝐥.𝚌𝚘𝐦

"You could force yourself onto Ding Ancheng; once he isn’t clean anymore, I’d surely not want him, wouldn’t things end the same way? We would separate, and you’d still achieve your goal." Yi Roujing said for her own sake.

As soon as Yi Roujing finished her sentence, she saw Ding Ancheng appear behind Li Xijun and Li YunGen, and she went silent, like a meek quail, oh no, overheard.

Feeling pressured from behind, Li Xijun and the others turned around immediately, only to be punched directly in the face, knocked straight to the ground.

"Gu Shizhao, they’re all your people, give me an explanation." Ding Ancheng frowned as he addressed Gu Shizhao who approached slowly.

"Certainly." Gu Shizhao spoke earnestly, looking at Yi Roujing with interest in his eyes, "I didn’t expect sister-in-law’s skills to be so good, defeating them in one move."

Ding Ancheng’s brow furrowed deeper, directly approaching Yi Roujing and grabbing the back of her neck, "Come back with me."

"I, I was just about to head back." Yi Roujing chuckled awkwardly.

"I don’t wish to see that woman again." Without looking at Li Xipei, Ding Ancheng walked past her, only speaking upon reaching Gu Shizhao.

"Don’t worry, I’ll make sure to get her far away, she won’t return for a lifetime." Gu Shizhao assured.
