C4 I'm here to break off the engagement

In the time it took to make a cup of tea, Gou Lao Er had arrived behind Shi Xun.

Seeing that, Shi Hao put on a black robe and went out the door.

"I'll tell you, things have already been discussed. You only need to go over and say that you are unable to complete the marriage due to a special reason. The clan will help you with other matters."

Because Shi Hao had never given him a chance to say it, when he saw Shi Hao coming out, he immediately told him what he would need Shi Hao to do.

He was afraid that he would be angered speechless by Shi Hao again.

"If you screw up, I'll make sure this is a home where you won't find it easy."

Shi Xun's tone was full of threat, as though Shi Hao was the one who dared to say no, as if he wanted to kick Shi Hao out of the Shi family.

Today, Shi Xun had purposely dressed up.

He had fair skin, delicate features and a handsome look. His white clothes fluttered in the wind, and he appeared to be in high spirits.

On the other hand, Shi Hao was just casually dressed, and did not have any intention to care about his image at all.

"I have my own plans. You don't need to care about it. On account of your meal, I won't let you fight over that little bitch."

Shi Hao laughed inside, you'll know the result in a moment.

Shi Xun clenched his fists, and kept urging himself in his heart.

"Endure it, endure it. As long as we pass this day, he will let himself take care of it."

If Shi Hao was still the former Young Patriarch, and if his father was still the Patriarch and not disappeared, then today should be a happy day for Shi Hao.

If he was still the Shi Hao from before, encountering such a marriage, he would definitely admire it like mad.

However, everything was different now. A person's vision could decide everything.

As someone who had experienced this before, the small skirmish in front of him was nothing to him. However, today, he had to take this step forward.

The Shi family was one of the few wealthy families in Northern Barren City. The living room was also unusually large, from the main door to the main seat, it was more than twenty meters tall, and the decorations could be considered luxurious.

At the main seat, Shi Hao's grandfather, Shi Mingxuan was seated high up. On the left was the Li family's patriarch, Li Mingxuan, the eldest daughter of the Li family, Li Mingxuan, as well as a bunch of people from the Li family.

The first two seats on the right were probably for Patriarch Shi Dingtian.

The second spot should have been given to Shi Hao, but he didn't know if he could sit on it now.

From the third position onwards, they were respectively Shi Xun's father, Shi Dingdi, his third uncle, Shi Dingdi, and the important members of the Shi family.

Originally, today should be the day when the young master of the Shi family, Shi Hao, and the eldest daughter of the Li family, Li Mingxuan, were getting engaged.

Originally, it should have been the Shi Family that brought gifts to visit the Li Family, but who would have thought that the two families would come in the opposite direction.

Actually, everyone in the living room had already come to a decision on how to deal with the situation.

The marriage between the two families was supposed to enhance the stability of the relationship, but if one side was not treated equally, the stability of the relationship would be broken down.

The Li family's plan was to use their daughter to search for the secrets of the Shi family. Naturally, they did not want their daughter to marry a useless trash that had no value at all.

As for the Shi Family, because the Patriarch had disappeared, most of the big and small matters were dealt with by Shi Dingdi.

Right now, Shi Dingdi was only the Acting Clan Master, but if he could get himself onto the Li Family ship, the position of Patriarch would become a certainty.

Coincidentally, Li Mingxuan and Shi Xun had long been in love with each other, thus Shi Li and his wife decided to marry each other.

The reason they were gathered today, was just to let Shi Hao come over and announce that he had hidden ailments and needed to rest. Since he couldn't complete the marriage, it was natural that the candidate would fall on Shi Xun's head.

This morning, Shi Dingdi called Shi Xun over and explained the formidable relationship between them.

Shi Xun thought that this trash had already been scared of him since long ago. If he said something, he wouldn't dare to say anything, and so what happened just now happened.

When Shi Hao walked into the living room, over twenty pairs of eyes looked over at the same time. There was curiosity, pity, sympathy and even more, disdain.

When Li Mingxuan saw Shi Hao walk in, even though he wasn't dressed up meticulously, it was still difficult for him to hide his handsomeness. However, the moment he thought about how he was a trash that couldn't cultivate, a deep feeling of disgust arose.

When Shi Mingxuan saw this, even if he could not cultivate, he was at the very least still his own grandson. He had the same bloodline as, and the corners of his eyes revealed traces of heartache and concern.

But the emotions instantly disappeared, and he continued to explain to Shi Hao who had just entered the living room.

"Shi Hao, I have wronged you."

"I'm not feeling wronged, I came here today to end the engagement. I, Shi Hao, will not marry Li Mingxuan, the eldest daughter of the Li family."

's words were shocking, it was as though she threw a bomb and it exploded in the living room.

No one in the living room expected him to dare talk like that. They were all dumbfounded.

With that said, Shi Hao turned and left, completely at ease.

Shi Xun stood at the door of the hall and glared at Shi Hao who had left, not knowing what to say.

"Unfilial son, you're courting death."

Shi Dingdi who was the first to react shouted and was about to chase out.

"Just let him be. This matter is not worthy of him in the first place."

Shi Mingxuan seemed to have aged several tens of years in an instant, as he said dispiritedly.

Since his father had already spoken, Shi Dingdi naturally could not say anything, but at this moment, Li Yuanhang's anger rose again.

"Good!" Good! "Alright!"

Li Yuanhang continuously said three good things, and his anger rose to a new level.

"Your Shi family is just messing with our Lee family. Inviting a piece of trash to humiliate us, they really think we're soft. Let's go."

Li Yuanhang flung his hands and turned to leave.

"Patriarch Li, please wait a moment." Shi Mingxuan shouted.

"Brother Li, Chief Li, it's a misunderstanding. This really wasn't our intention."

Shi Dingdi quickly chased after him. He wanted to keep Li Yuanhang alive.

Li Yuanhang was extremely furious, no matter what Shi Dingdi said, he would not listen.

Who didn't know that the Shi family's Young Patriarch was a trash that couldn't cultivate? He had no status in the family and was often bullied by others, especially the father and son, Shi Dingdi and his son.

Li Yuanhang never thought that even though they had been annulled, they were still rejected by this trash. If he said that this was not acting on purpose, then no one would believe him.

The next day, news spread through the Northern Barren City again. The Shi family's trash sent the Li family's eldest daughter away, and it became a joke in an instant.

Shi Hao who had come out from the living room, was definitely lying if he said he did not feel guilty.

Shi Hao was actually betting that Shi Mingxuan could temporarily control the entire Shi family. Betting that no one would dare kill him in front of everyone, or else with his current situation, even if he died at home, no one would say a word.

Sigh, his injuries weren't fully healed yet, but he was still suffering from one headache after another.

Judging from the situation in the living room today, anyone could use him as a bargaining chip and as a sacrifice.

"He's really not even comparable to a servant, the pressure is getting stronger and stronger!" Shi Hao laughed bitterly and sighed.

Shi Xun, just what ability did Shi Dingdi have to actually be able to silence that grandfather of his who once doted on him?

Judging from grandfather's last few words and actions that stopped Shi Dingdi, it was likely that grandfather was only forced by pressure and did not completely give up on himself.

For the time being, no one in the family would dare to harm him. However, who could say for sure what was going on behind his back?

It didn't matter what Shi Dingdi was, or what Shi Xun was. The world was vast, and food was the most important.

It was more important to solve the problem of livelihood. Otherwise, if others didn't kill him, he would starve to death first.

What a headache. In his previous life, no matter where he went as a pill refiner, he would always be one to fawn over others.

Regardless of what they wanted, just call them out. Some people lined up to send them off, and even if they were asked to send them over on their knees, there were still quite a few willing to do so.

But now, even if he used up all his saliva and yelled his throat out, no one would be willing to take another look, not to mention donating a grain of rice.

Was he someone who needed someone's charity? When did I become so despicable? Life can be cheap, but people can never be cheap.

The Shi family's courtyard took up more than ten acres of land. It was located in the north, facing south. The guest hall was located in the south, and its main area was east.

Shi Hao's broken house was located at the west side. After returning from the living room, they had to go through the backyard's garden, the breeding ground, and finally, they had to go around back to the west side of the house.

If this person got unlucky and bullied the beasts, Shi Hao would have no choice but to return.

Unknowingly, he arrived at the garden. He didn't notice a rooster running towards him. The rooster was flapping its wings randomly. It actually used its claws to grab onto his waist before flapping away.

Shi Hao who had yet to recover from his old injuries instantly felt an intense tearing sensation from his waist.

He thought to himself, "A tiger being bullied by a dog. How dare a little beast like you touch the ground when it's too old."

When he turned around to look at the rooster, he found that there was a woman chasing after him. She was panting heavily as she kept on yelling.

"Stop!" Stop! "If you dare to steal food from the garden, I'll kill you!"

It turned out that the rooster was raised by the Shi family's kitchen. While the caretakers weren't paying attention, it escaped from the breeding ground and went to the garden to look for food.

"Kill him?"

Hearing these two words, Shi Hao suddenly had an idea. All the unhappiness disappeared like smoke into thin air, and he actually didn't bother to angrily berate the rooster who had committed a crime, and quickly walked towards his living quarters.

Inside the broken house, the anxious Xiao Ya walked around the broken table.

With Shi Xun's personality, who was never willing to suffer a loss, losing so much face at his own doorstep today, the odds were against him.

"Young master, come back safely!"

Xiao Ya prayed the entire time.

"Xiao Ya, I'm back!"

Before they even reached the entrance of the courtyard, Shi Hao who was in a good mood shouted.

"Young Master, are you alright? Did they bully you?" Hearing the shout, Xiao Ya ran out happily and asked in concern.

"Don't worry, your young master will definitely be fine. If there's anything you need, it'll be someone else. I swear that as long as I'm here, I won't let anyone bully you in the future."

Pulling Xiao Ya's small hand, looking at Xiao Ya's familiar face, Shi Hao asked very seriously.
