Chapter 882: Chapter 882 Conflict (3)

Mo Yan did not linger any longer, turned around, boarded the carriage, and slowly drove away from the palace gate. Heeding the lesson from the incident of the imperial examination announcements, she had reserved a private room in the restaurant on the street where the horse parade was to pass two days ago, where Xin’er Zhen’er were already waiting.

Upon reaching the entrance of the tea house, a waiter came up attentively and led Da HongZao to the backyard to feed. After thanking him, Mo Yan gave him a reward of one qian’s Silver, then headed towards the private rooms upstairs. As soon as her foot touched the staircase, a sudden force came from behind, and her left shoulder was heavily bumped.

Staggering underfoot, Mo Yan barely managed not to fall down the stairs. Fortunately, her quick reflexes allowed her to reach out and steady herself against the stair railing.

"Dare to block this young lady’s way, are you blind or what? If you’re blind, don’t leave your house. What will you do if you bump into someone you shouldn’t?" A girl around eighteen or nineteen glared at Mo Yan, wickedly placing the blame first and accusing her with sharp and harsh words.

Upon hearing this, Mo Yan’s eyebrows furrowed slightly, clearly displeased with the unreasonable and difficult young woman in front of her. She sized up the girl, noticing that she was dressed in a thick green silk cloth. Although the material was common, it was not something ordinary families could afford to wear all the time.

Observing her behavior and manners which were quite vulgar, she appeared to be not like a young lady raised in seclusion but rather like Maid Qiuyue from the Cloth Shop she had met before. Moreover, given this woman’s arrogant behavior, it was obvious she had backing. It seemed she might be a maid from some prominent household, and it was likely that her mistress was in one of the private rooms upstairs, having tea.

Considering her father might be on his way here, Mo Yan did not wish to waste her breath on a person of low morals. She merely glanced indifferently at the arrogant maid and, without saying anything, turned and continued upstairs.

Unexpectedly, that one glance ignited the anger of the green-clothed maid. She grabbed Mo Yan’s arm and shrilly demanded, "What kind of look was that? Stand right there for this young lady!"

With that, she exerted a strong force on her arm, intending to pull Mo Yan down the stairs.

"Let go!" Mo Yan’s eyes turned cold as she quickly withdrew her hand. She was much stronger than the green-clad maid and nearly as soon as the maid’s hand touched her arm, she harshly flung her off.

"Ah—"

The unprepared green-clad maid screamed as the force threw her down onto the steps. Her face, which was relatively proper, hit the stairs hard and immediately swelled up with a red welt that symmetrically bisected her face, making for an accidental symmetry.

"Pfft!"

Seeing the maid’s face, the onlookers couldn’t help but laugh rudely, yet no one stepped forward to help her up. Her previous arrogant behavior had been witnessed by many, and no one felt sympathy for such a person.

Faced with the ridicule of the crowd, the green-clad maid cared not for her anger and quickly touched her face to see if there was blood. Seeing that there was none and no other abnormality besides pain, she breathed a sigh of relief. Yet, she harbored extreme hatred toward the chief culprit. Fearing Mo Yan’s frightening strength, she only dared to glare at her fiercely and weakly cursed, "You lowly whore, to treat me like this, just you wait!"

Having said that, she quickly scrambled up and rushed up the stairs, stopping at the corner to give Mo Yan a cold smile before disappearing from her sight.

Mo Yan, bumping into someone and bearing insults for no reason, felt extremely sullen, as if bitten by a mad dog. Just as she intended to go upstairs to find her siblings, the cautious Restaurant Manager came over with an apologetic smile and said, "Miss, that maid has significant backing, she might complain to her master. If you don’t want to attract trouble, perhaps you should go elsewhere to have tea."

Appreciating the kindness behind the Restaurant Manager’s words, Mo Yan’s facial expression softened a bit, "Thank you for the warning, Shopkeeper! However, I like it here, and I’ve already reserved a private room, so I’d rather not move to another place."

With that, she turned and ascended the stairs step by step.

Seeing that he couldn’t persuade her, the Shopkeeper quickly beckoned an attendant and instructed, "Go upstairs quickly and keep an eye on them. If they start to argue, mediate if you can; if you can’t, then collect the tea sets and snack plates so they don’t get smashed."

"Yes, I’ll go immediately, rest assured, Shopkeeper!" The attendant nodded rapidly and followed with tea sets in hand.

As Mo Yan arrived at the door of her reserved private room, she could hear the playful noises of her siblings and couldn’t help but smile. Just as she was about to enter, the door of the third private room to the right suddenly burst open, and a group of people spilled out.

The green-clothed maid with a swollen red mark on her face spotted Mo Yan, her eyes bulging, and pointed at her while screaming at a woman dressed in lavish attire by her side, "Miss, it’s her, this wretched woman bumped into me, injuring me like this. Please stand up for me, Miss. Otherwise, outsiders will think Miss is easy to bully, and anyone will want to step on us!"

Mo Yan’s brow furrowed, and she withdrew her hand from the door. Turning to face the oncoming group, she saw the leading woman who looked as if she was heaped with gold, her body flashing with glaring golden light, and her movement chimed. It was amazing that her not overly thick hair managed to hold so many gold hairpins, Gold Hairpins, and Golden Hairpins without a single one becoming crooked. Her neck must be in good shape, accustomed to the weight!

Fan Meijiao, who was intent on regaining face, was unaware of Mo Yan’s silent criticisms. Seeing Mo Yan’s pretty and young face, which made her, usually quite proud of her own looks, green with jealousy, all she wanted was to destroy that face and teach this blind girl a lesson about the vastness of heaven and earth!
