Mo Lan walked the entire long street from one end to the other without stepping into a single shop.
As noon approached, Mo Lan patted her stomach and led Hua Bao into a noodle shop.
"Boss lady, two bowls of scallion and egg noodles."
"Okay~, coming right away."
There were quite a few people eating lunch. Mo Lan and Hua Bao had just found an empty seat when they heard gossip coming from the next table.
"Did you know? The Lion King Escort Agency was completely wiped out!"
"Huh? The Lion King Escort Agency is full of trained martial artists. Who's so bold as to dare to mess with them?"
"Hey~, you don't know this, do you? How many people can cause trouble in our Ye County? It's all because they have powerful backers. The city lord's cousin, that tyrant, who dares to mess with him?"
"Ah? Chen Bawang... Lion King Escort Agency is really in a sorry state."
The group shook their heads and sighed for a while, only stopping their discussion when the proprietress brought the food to the table.
Mo Lan noticed that when they mentioned Chen Bawang, they deliberately lowered their voices, as if afraid of being overheard.
After finishing her noodles, Mo Lan pondered for a moment.
"Hua Bao, do you know where the Lion King Escort Agency is?"
"This Hua Bao really doesn't know. Miss, do you want to go watch the excitement?" Hua Bao heard the discussion in the noodle shop.
“Hmm,” Mo Lan wanted to see what that arrogant and domineering Chen Bawang looked like.
With things escalating to such an extent, the Lion King Escort Agency's affairs were no secret at all.
From afar, Mo Lan could see a group of people gathered in front of her. Amidst the crackling sounds, there were also curses and swears. On the open ground to the side, a young man, who looked to be around twenty years old, sat smugly, fanning himself with a folding fan.
Seeing the man's disdainful expression and the faint black aura emanating from him, Mo Lan couldn't help but shake her head.
Another heartless brat spoiled by his family.
“Young Master, it’s all smashed. Now they have no choice but to move it.” A servant approached Chen Bawang with a fawning expression.
Just as the two were whispering to each other, a bruised and swollen boy rushed over, shouting, "Chen Kun, don't push your luck!"
"Haha... Oh, isn't this the young head镖师 (bodyguard/escort) of the Lion King Escort Agency? What happened? You got beaten up, poor thing."
Chen Kun raised one eyebrow, staring smugly at the boy standing in front of him, his smile arrogant and full of malice.
"Young镖头, don't you even know whose land you're standing on? You dare to challenge me while trying to make a living on my turf, this is what you get for it."
The boy's face was flushed red, and his fists were clenched so tightly they cracked. "Chen Kun, you're despicable!"
"Haha... Young Master Escort, you keep repeating the same few words over and over. You're not tired of it, but I am. To tell you the truth, I just can't stand your righteous and awe-inspiring appearance. As the saying goes, if you don't have the skills, don't take on the job. Stop pretending to be a chivalrous person and you'll only suffer the consequences."
As Chen Kun spoke, he stood up and looked down at the disheveled young man in front of him, his eyes full of mockery.
"Young Master Escort, where's the person you rescued? Where did they go? Did they run away because they saw you were unlucky?"
juvenile:"······"
"Ha ha······"
With a wild laugh, Chen Kun and his men swaggered away.
"I'm giving you three days to disappear from Ye County. I don't want to see you again."
Mo Lan watched the scene unfold with her arms crossed, then looked at the ashen-faced boy and muttered to herself, "Why is this happening? Did I do something wrong?"
