Chapter 2055: I Can Even Kill and Bury a Body


When this topic came up, Ruan Kewei was still somewhat disgruntled and complained about his father.

"He was just too nervous; the County Princess was only here to see off that Ruan old lady. What does it have to do with our family? I haven't had a chance to hang out with my friends for a long time, and finally, we can have a drink together, but I can't even enjoy it properly."

Speaking of which, Lou Shi found it strange that Ruan Kewei hadn't gone out much lately and had stayed at home for half a month.

She tentatively asked, "It's been a long time since you hung out with your friends. Did they not invite you because they're busy?"

"What could they be busy with? They're always up to no good, never doing anything legitimate," Ruan Kewei replied, clearly already drunk. He began to stagger to his feet, and his eyes were turning red as he stared at Lou Shi.

Lou Shi was alarmed because she knew this was a sign that he was about to become violent.

Indeed, Ruan Kewei yelled at her, "Come over here, why are you standing so far away?"

Lou Shi hadn't expected that things would spiral out of control so quickly without even asking a few questions. She was no longer willing to hide and avoid his attention as she did before.

Instead, she tried to provoke him while keeping her distance, "They're always up to no good, just like you, right? I haven't seen you do anything more impressive than them. If you really have what it takes, have your father find you a legitimate job, or buy you a small government position."

She wanted to use this opportunity to draw out Ruan Hai and make Ruan Kewei reveal more information about him.

However, when Ruan Kewei was drunk, he was still sharp despite his inebriation. Lou Shi's words seemed to hit a nerve, and he suddenly became furious. He reached out, grabbed Lou Shi by her hair, and slapped her across the face. His eyes were bloodshot as he said, "You say I have no talent? You, a woman who can't even lay an egg, dare to look down on me? Let me tell you, I can even kill and bury a body if I want to. If you ever make me unhappy, I'll make you taste what it's like to be buried with a hoe, where no one will ever find you."

Lou Shi was completely stunned, kill and bury a body?

Was Ruan Kewei just spouting nonsense due to drunkenness, or was he speaking the truth?

She didn't have time to think about it; Ruan Kewei had already started grabbing her head and slamming it against the wall.

He was known for being ruthless when he hit people, and this time was even worse than before. Lou Shi was unable to move under the beating.

Fortunately, Ruan Hai, who usually didn't intervene, heard the commotion and rushed in, instructing his other two sons to pull Ruan Kewei away. He wore a grim expression and scolded, "You brat, I've told you not to cause trouble at a time like this. The County Princess is still in the village."

Lou Shi leaned against the corner of the wall, closing her eyes as she caught her breath. She couldn't help but feel relieved. Thankfully, the County Princess was here; otherwise, with Ruan Kewei's ferocity this time, if no one had intervened, she might have lost her life.

The Ruan family members all saw the wine jug on the table. They didn't suspect that Lou Shi had deliberately left it in the room.

After all, everyone knew about Ruan Kewei's habit of beating her when he was drunk. She wouldn't be so self-destructive, would she?

So, everyone assumed that Ruan Kewei had secretly hidden the alcohol in the room himself.

While Ruan Hai and the others controlled the drunken Ruan Kewei, no one paid attention to Lou Shi. She slowly recovered in the corner, despite the pain all over her body and the blood seeping from her wounds. However, her mind gradually cleared.

Ruan Kewei's two sentences kept echoing in her ears, giving rise to a surreal and terrifying thought.
