Chapter 326: Chapter 326: Relying on Power and Shamelessly Persisting (1)_1

The Xue Family dared to directly acquire Mo’s rice shop simply because they regarded the small Mo Family as easy to deal with. Even if the Mo Family had been weakened by the moldy grain incident, a dying camel is still larger than a horse, and ten Mo Families wouldn’t be a match for them.

To get the Xue Family to drop the idea of acquiring the rice shop or investigating the source of the grains, one must find a force powerful enough to crush the Xue Family and make them wary of acting rashly. The most influential people Mo Yan knew were Xiao Ruiyuan and Yan Junyu.

Even though Xiao Ruiyuan was in Jing City, she would still turn to Yan Junyu for help. For one, she had a deal with Yan Junyu, so there was no psychological burden in asking for his help; second, Xiao Ruiyuan had too many troubles, and seeking his help might bring even bigger problems.

Having made up her mind, Mo Yan found the Punishing Shopkeeper and asked him to help relay a message to Yan Junyu.

The Punishing Shopkeeper readily agreed and quickly informed the delighted Yan Junyu. However, after Xiao Ruiyuan had left, Yan Junyu took over some affairs from the Crown Prince and had an important matter to deal with recently. He couldn’t find time at the moment and asked the Punishing Shopkeeper to tell Mo Yan to wait for a couple of days unless it was urgent.

What could Mo Yan say? She could only wait! But before she could even meet with Yan Junyu, people from the Xue Family came again.

"You’re a Mo? The little boss of this ’Mo’s Fragrant Rice’?" A person who looked like a manager glanced at Mo Yan with his nostrils flaring, as if speaking to her was an immense favor he bestowed.

He really acted like a lackey, and even had the eyes of one!

"I am the owner of ’Mo’s Fragrant Rice’! Old master, if you have something to say, say it, or just fart and get it over with. My time is precious too!"

Mo Yan looked down and fiddled with her fingers, not even giving him a glance, with an arrogant posture as if she was speaking to an ant.

Lizhong managed to keep a straight face, but his eyes twitched several times. He had seen Mo Yan be composed, smart, and cunning, but he had never seen her be so crude... cough, rude! It was really quite refreshing!

But since faces were going to be torn eventually, there was no reason to speak nicely to such people who—like a dog at the feet of its master—believed they had power.

"You, you, you, you..." The manager was so angry that his nose seemed to bend, and he pointed a trembling finger at Mo Yan, but he couldn’t finish his sentence.

Seeing this, Mo Yan added fuel to the fire, "Oh my, old master, it turns out you have a stutter! A stutter is an illness, and it should be treated! If you don’t have a good doctor, I can actually recommend one to you."

Lizhong almost spat out the tea he’d just drunk and hastily apologized, pouring oil on the fire, "Manager Gou, our Little Boss is just trying to be kind. That doctor really is quite skilled."

With their banter, Manager Gou’s lips trembled, and with a "smack," he threw the teacup in his hand onto the ground, "How dare you! I am from the Xue Family, and you dare speak to me like this!"

"Listen to you, Manager Gou, your surname is Gou, while others are surnamed Xue. How did you become part of the Xue Family? Or are you saying you can represent the Xue Family, hmm?"

Mo Yan looked at Manager Gou with a smile brimming with meaning; she thought the Xue Family would send someone competent, but they’d sent an idiot who showed his true colors so quickly. But that was just as well; such people were easier to get rid of!

Upon hearing this, Manager Gou immediately broke out into cold sweat. That was not his intention at all, but this pesky girl had twisted his words. If word got back to the Xue Family, how would he get by?

With this thought, he glared at Mo Yan with a chilling gaze, "I am a servant of the Xue Family. How am I not a person from the Xue Family? I have come here on behalf of the Eldest Young Master from the Xue Family. Being disrespectful to me is being disrespectful to the entire Xue Family!"
