“Then let her try! Let’s see who has the last laugh.” A trace of ruthlessness flashed across Shi Sen’s eyes. She wasn’t worried that Fang Rou and Shi Yan would cause trouble for her at all. Instead, she was worried that she wouldn’t be able to find a suitable excuse to take revenge on them.

Shi Yan, who was in the courtyard, felt dejected and complained to her parents reproachfully.

“Dad, what do you mean? Why did such a good thing happen to that little bastard?!”

When Shi Song saw his angry daughter, he sighed in frustration and reprimanded, “Shi Sen is lucky to be so highly valued. Don’t call her a little bastard and let outsiders see our dirty laundry!”

“How does she deserve this chance?!” Shi Yan deliberately raised her voice as she shouted towards the room, “In my opinion, she’s just like her shameless mother. She’s a vixen who seduces men!”

Shi Yan was still angry, so she walked closer and continued to scold at the top of her voice, “My brother was blind to marry that shameless bitch, Bai Lan. Shi Sen doesn’t look like a member of the Shi family at all. She might be that vixen and someone else’s illegitimate—”

“Ah!” Before Shi Yan could finish cursing, a basin of cold water was splashed out from the inner room.

“Little bastard! How dare you splash water on me?!” Shi Yan tidied her hair that was stuck to her face and glared at Shi Sen, who was standing at the door with a basin. She wished she could tear Shi Sen apart.

“Who am I disturbing by splashing water at my own door? Aunt, you should go home early. It’s cold in late autumn, so don’t catch a cold.” Shi Sen originally wanted to ignore Shi Yan, but when she heard her scold her mother, she couldn’t take it lying down.

“I won’t let you off the hook!” After Shi Yan was drenched, she rushed towards Shi Sen, who kicked her to the ground.

“Mom!” Upon seeing her mother fall, Fang Rou hurriedly ran to Shi Sen and questioned, “Sister, my mother is your elder after all. How can you attack her?!”

Shi Sen was feeling frustrated, so when she saw Fang Rou’s face, she walked towards her and grabbed her collar as she said coldly, “We’re of the same generation, so I’ll hit you.”

Shi Sen looked at Fang Rou’s frightened expression as she slapped her hard.

Looking at Fang Rou’s swollen cheek, Shi Sen was still angry. This injury was nothing compared to her experience in her previous life.

“Ah! Grandma, Grandpa, save me!” Fang Rou was terrified by Shi Sen’s aggressive appearance. Under Shi Sen’s restraints, Fang Rou had no strength to resist at all. No matter how hard she struggled, it was useless.

“Let go of me!” When Liu Cui saw her daughter and granddaughter being bullied, she hurriedly ran towards Shi Sen.

Without waiting for Liu Cui to approach, Shi Sen pushed Fang Rou towards her forcefully. Fang Rou’s legs were weak to begin with, so she fell onto Liu Cui and the two of them looked extremely woeful.

“Enough! Stop it! Behave yourselves!” Shi Song was annoyed by Shi Yan and Fang Rou’s cries.

Shi Song was also disgusted by Shi Sen’s aggressiveness, but when he thought of the village chief’s words just now, Shi Song decided to let Shi Sen off the hook for now. After all, it wasn’t easy to catch the eye of a prestigious coach from the city.

“This girl dares to treat us like this before she even goes to the city. If we really let her go, won’t she become even more unruly?” Liu Cui glared at Shi Sen, who was protected by Bai Lan.

She didn’t want things to be smooth sailing for them.

“Whether she can become successful or not depends on her own luck! All of you, calm down. Whoever causes trouble, get out!” With that, Shi Song slammed the door and returned to his room.

Seeing that Shi Song had no intention of interfering, Liu Cui was dissatisfied, but she didn’t dare to flare up again. It seemed that Shi Song was very concerned about the village chief and that coach.

Liu Cui helped the drenched Shi Yan up and glared at Fang Rou, whose face was red and swollen. Then, she turned to spit at Shi Sen and scolded, “If you become successful, the heavens must be blind. You ignorant little bastard, you’re as heartless as your mother!”

“Grandma, you’ll get retribution for cursing the heavens. Be careful not to be struck by lightning!” Before Shi Sen could see Liu Cui’s reaction, she was pulled back into the house by Bai Lan.

“Stop talking. They definitely won’t let you enter the city successfully. Sen Sen, let’s just endure it for a little longer.”

Bai Lan didn’t know when her daughter had become so tough. In the past, she had silently endured being scolded and had never resisted so vehemently.
