Chapter 82: Chapter 82 Punishment (2)_1

Yan Junyu thought she was shocked by his identity and couldn’t help but feel smug, "That’s right, I am the legitimate eldest grandson of Wu An’s Mansion, known in the capital as ’Young Master.’"

With her suspicions confirmed, Mo Yan wished she could smash the Ink Jade and the thumb ring right into his smug face.

If it weren’t for Wu An’s Mansion, her father wouldn’t have been framed and punished by Bu Shi Ren. Unexpectedly, the person she had to deal with this time turned out to be the Young Master of Wu An’s Mansion; she really didn’t know whether to marvel at the narrowness of fate’s paths or dive into the depths of monkey dung!

Seeing that her expression was off, and even faintly murderous, Yan Junyu joked, "What’s the matter? Could it be that our families have a feud?"

"You really have quite the imagination!"

Mo Yan’s eye twitched; she couldn’t help glaring at him but ultimately did not bring up that incident.

At the end of the day, that matter had nothing to do with him. Later, he had taken care of Bu Shi Ren and even had someone deliver several hundred liang to apologize. If she continued to hold onto the issue, it would only show her as petty.

Moreover, they now had a transaction between them, and Wu An’s Mansion was indeed a powerful backer. Just because of this, she couldn’t afford to ruin their relationship.

With this in mind, Mo Yan readily accepted the reality that her "golden thigh" was Wu An’s Mansion.

Yan Junyu didn’t quite understand the significance of her words, but he guessed they weren’t anything positive. Too lazy to quarrel with a lady, he reverted to his languid demeanor, "I’ve already agreed to your request; now it’s time for you to tell me about your elixir, isn’t it?"

Mo Yan nodded and, apart from the ability to awaken Spiritual Wisdom in animals, she briefly explained the process of rapid growth in plants and especially emphasized the health benefits of building physical strength.

She was certain what he valued was the Spiritual Spring’s ability to detoxify and invigorate, to bolster health and build strength.

Indeed, Yan Junyu listened very carefully, sitting up straighter without realizing it. Upon hearing "Long-term use can extend life," his entire being radiated with excitement and joy.

In this transaction, Mo Yan got what she wanted by securing a robust supporter, and Yan Junyu smoothly acquired more than he had anticipated, satisfying both parties immensely!

"Oh yes, your uncle conned me out of ten thousand taels of banknotes. What do you think I should do to punish him?" Before leaving, Yan Junyu shook the evidence signed by Mo Yongshou in front of her, asking Mo Yan in a teasing manner.

Mo Yan was speechless at his taste for malice, "You’re the creditor, you can punish him however you like!"

"Hmph, if it weren’t for the usefulness of your elixir, I wouldn’t have bothered asking you! Since you’re ungrateful, let those ten thousand taels serve as his gesture of thanks for me!"

Yan Junyu always acted with integrity, and from the start, he hadn’t planned on using any underhanded methods to coerce this girl into compliance. Knowing Mo Yongshou was up to no good, he had instructed Xiao Qiang to pretend to go along with Mo Yongshou’s scheme, all to show his sincerity at this meeting. Unexpectedly, the girl turned out to be thankless—it was infuriating!

Mo Yan took his words at face value and hesitated for a moment before asking, "What would happen to Mo Yongshou if this were taken to court?"

Seeing her reaction, Yan Junyu looked at her haughtily before stating, "According to Great Chu’s laws, defrauding someone of more than ten thousand liang without repaying constitutes a capital crime; if the deceptive amount is returned, the punishment is thirty lashes and exile to a distance of three thousand li, never to return to one’s homeland."

Mo Yan was taken aback, "That severe?"

Yan Junyu gave her a disdainful glance, not revealing that if he had originally agreed to give Mo Yongshou only one thousand liang, and if that amount could be repaid, the punishment would only be thirty lashes and ten years in prison. He didn’t know what she was thinking, so he directly offered ten thousand liang, which would allow for a heavier sentence if desired. But from the looks of it, this girl was probably too soft-hearted to follow through.

Hmph, all his efforts seemed wasted!
