Chapter 31 Threats

Ye Nanyi saw their strange expressions and was a little confused. She turned her head and said apologetically, “I was wrong. This dead tree is too thick. Even with more people, we wouldn’t be able to carry it back. Let’s find another one.”

Yu Chunxiang quickly chimed in, “Yeah, let’s go.” As they were leaving, she didn’t forget to ask Liu Lili. “Liu Zhiqing, are you coming with us?”

Liu Lili felt that the three of them were acting strange, but she couldn’t figure out what was going on. She had been scared up the mountain by Li Yulan, so she decided to follow Ye Nanyi and the others to gather firewood.

Ye Nanyi looked around for a suitable dead tree as they walked. “Ye Zhiqing, how about this one? It’s just the right size,” Li Yao suddenly called out.

Ye Nanyi followed Li Yao’s finger and saw a dead tree. It was indeed perfect. She estimated that it would be about one big bundle of firewood per person, no more. “Let’s take this one. I’ll kick it down.” Before Yu Chunxiang and the others could say anything, Ye Nanyi quickly kicked the small dead tree to the ground.

The three of them had never seen such a feat and stood there dumbfounded. “What are you standing there for? Hurry up! We need to go down the mountain before it gets dark.”

After they came to their senses, they quickly took out their axes from their baskets and started chopping. Ye Nanyi watched their movements. They were trying hard, but they were too slow. She was getting impatient and took out her special large axe. She chopped a few times and it was done.

This operation stunned the three of them again. They had heard that Ye Nanyi had kicked Wang Xiangdong to the ground, but they thought it was a joke. It seemed like it was true. She had such strength.

“Ye Zhiqing, you’re really strong. No wonder you could kick Wang Zhiqing to the ground.” Liu Lili said with a sigh.

Ye Nanyi was a little puzzled. How could Wang Xiangdong, who was so concerned about his reputation, admit to it? She had guessed wrong. Wang Xiangdong had already gone to the team leader to complain. But the team leader was busy with the autumn harvest and didn’t believe Wang Xiangdong’s words, thinking that Ye Nanyi was thin and weak. He was impatient. It was Liu Sheng who spoke for Wang Xiangdong, and the team leader reluctantly left.

“Speaking of which, why did you kick him?”

Ye Nanyi said without hesitation, “He deserved it.”

Liu Lili was on Ye Nanyi’s side. Since she said he deserved it, then Wang Xiangdong was asking for it. Fortunately, Ye Nanyi didn’t know what Liu Lili was thinking, otherwise she would have definitely asked, “You have such a thick filter for me?”

“We’re done. Let’s go down the mountain.”

The four of them went back to the educated youth point together. When Ye Nanyi opened the dormitory door, she keenly sensed a gaze fixed on her. But she didn’t care. She guessed that the owner of the gaze was Wang Xiangdong. Ye Nanyi mischievously flipped him off.

This angered Wang Xiangdong. He decided to quickly marry her to Qi Erwa and keep her here forever. No wonder Yulan hated Ye Nanyi so much. Now he hated her even more.

As soon as Ye Nanyi returned to the dormitory, she went into her space and found the self-defense weapon – a fake mouse – that the merchant had given her as a bonus. At the time, Ye Nanyi thought it was ridiculous. How could this thing be used for self-defense? But since it was a bonus, she took it anyway. She counted them carefully. There were quite a few, about 20. She held one in her hand and examined it. It made a mouse sound when touched.

She remembered how the original owner accidentally heard Xu Yulan’s mocking words. Wang Xiangdong was really useless, he was actually afraid of mice. Now everything was in place, all she needed was the right time. As long as Wang Xiangdong asked her to go up the mountain, she would definitely make him become the cripple he was in the previous life.

After Yu Chunxiang and Li Yao returned to the dormitory, they noticed that Li Yulan kept looking at them. They immediately thought of Ye Nanyi’s words and looked at each other. Yu Chunxiang decided to take the initiative. “Li Zhiqing, why are you looking at me so strangely?”

Li Yulan didn’t expect Yu Chunxiang to ask. She nervously twisted the corner of her clothes and retorted, “There’s nothing wrong. You’re mistaken.” She turned and left the dormitory, but her hurried steps betrayed her composure.

Li Yulan ran out of the dormitory. She had already calmed herself down, but she was still nervous when she saw Yu Chunxiang and Li Yao. She didn’t have the courage to say what she had told Qi Erwa.

Li Yao frowned and whispered, “She must have a problem. Otherwise, she wouldn’t act like this. Do you think she told him?”

Yu Chunxiang knew what Li Yao was talking about. She reassuringly held Li Yao’s hand and shook her head slightly. Li Yao finally calmed down.

Before Yu Chunxiang could tell Ye Nanyi about this, she was startled by a note handed to her by a child. The note read: If you don’t want everyone to know about your relationship with Li Yao, meet me at the foot of the mountain tonight.

The note even had a signature: Qi Erwa.

Yu Chunxiang was a little nervous at first, but when she saw the signature, she almost laughed. What did this mean? He wasn’t even trying to hide it? Yu Chunxiang didn’t hesitate to show the note to Ye Nanyi.

Ye Nanyi was also speechless, but she decided to let Yu Chunxiang go see what Qi Erwa wanted. “Go. I’ll follow you. If something happens, we’ll have to take the initiative. After all, plans can change.”

Yu Chunxiang nodded. “Okay, I’ll go see what he has to say. He wants to threaten me based on Li Yulan’s words alone.”

Ye Nanyi heard Yu Chunxiang’s words. She had been wondering why Yu Chunxiang, with her personality, would marry Qi Da’wa just because she fell into the water. The whole thing was strange. Because Yu Chunxiang didn’t care if she could marry again, how could she compromise so quickly. Night soon arrived. After comforting Li Yao, Yu Chunxiang headed towards the foot of the mountain. Ye Nanyi quietly followed behind her. When Yu Chunxiang reached the foot of the mountain, she found Qi Erwa already there. “What do you mean by that note you gave me?” Yu Chunxiang was too lazy to argue with Qi Erwa, so she went straight to the point.

 “Since you’re in such a hurry, then listen up. I want you to marry my elder brother and take good care of him in the future, otherwise…” Yu Chunxiang wanted to know if Qi Erwa had any evidence. “Are you crazy? Your elder brother is an idiot, how can you say that?” Qi Erwa didn’t get angry when he heard Yu Chunxiang’s refusal. “Yu Zhiqing, I’ll give you time to think about it. At most, one week. If you don’t agree, then you’d better watch out for Li Yao.

” Qi Erwa was about to leave. Seeing that Qi Erwa was threatening her with Li Yao, Yu Chunxiang couldn’t hold back. “I’ll think about it, you have to give me time.” Qi Erwa stopped in his tracks, without turning his head, he said: “I don’t have that much patience, at most three days, because I still need to prepare for the wedding.” After confirming that Qi Erwa had left, Ye Nanyi sighed. She pulled Yu Chunxiang aside. “How can you agree to him? We can only act ahead of time.”
