Chapter Sixty-Four: Bystanders



"You...you dare? I am the most favored young master of the Chen family. If you touch me, you will never be able to leave Yejun."

Chen Kun looked at Mo Lan with fear in his eyes. He hadn't expected a woman to be so powerful.

"Whether we can separate or not is another matter. Now, let me teach you a lesson." As she spoke, Mo Lan shook the pointer in her hand and flung the person three meters away.

"ah······"

Mo Lan gripped the pointer, her eyes sweeping over the group, and the wailing fellows immediately fell silent.

Finally satisfied, he walked up to the stunned Hua Bao and said, "Let's go."

"Miss...you're amazing!" Hua Bao looked at Mo Lan with shining eyes. She never knew that the young lady could be so cool when she wielded the whip.

It wasn't until the master and servant had walked quite a distance that the onlookers came to their senses. Looking at the beaten man on the ground, they felt relieved but also afraid of getting into trouble, so they quickly dispersed.

On the entire street, apart from a group of people lying on the ground groaning, no one else dared to approach.

Only in the teahouse across the street did one person watch with great interest for a long time, until the figures of Mo Lan and her servant completely disappeared before turning away.

"What an interesting and courageous little girl."

"Your Highness, the young master..." The attendant glanced at the young master lying on the street. Although he felt relieved, he knew how much the young master was pampered at home.

But before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by the magistrate who was watching the commotion, "Don't pay any attention to him. In recent years, the Chen family has indeed become more arrogant. Relying on the power of the Jiang family, their behavior has become increasingly outrageous."

"...But the Chen family probably won't let that young lady off easily. Should the Prince take action?"

"No need. Even if I wanted to help, they might not appreciate it."

Didn't you hear that little girl indirectly criticizing him for being incompetent? In the years that Jiang Mian has been a princess, although he has managed the affairs of Ye County very well and the public security is also good, he has indeed been a bit lax with relatives like the Chen family. It's only right that he gets scolded a bit.

Upon hearing the lord's tone, the attendant immediately advised, "Your Highness, you need not take it to heart. The Chen family is the Chen family, and Your Highness is Your Highness. They cannot be confused."

"Heh~, Mu Zi, don't try to persuade me. I know the Chen family better than you do. All they've done over the years is bully others with their power; they haven't improved at all." Jiang Mian chuckled, then shook his head speechlessly, thinking of his mother at home.

They say the squeaky wheel gets the grease, and his cousin always acted obedient and sensible in front of the elders, his words as sweet as honey, making both families adore him.

Even if he did something wrong and his family found out, the elders would automatically make excuses for him, saying that well-behaved and sensible children don't cause trouble, so he must have been bullied badly or instigated by someone. In the end, instead of punishing him, they would comfort him, afraid that he would be frightened...

Over time, the person went completely astray.

"Mu Zi, send a few people to keep an eye on things. If the Chen family causes trouble and that girl can't handle it, lend a hand. If not, then forget about it."

As Jiang Mian spoke, he turned to watch Chen Kun being helped away, stumbling and falling, his expression unchanged.

Given Chen Kun's personality, it's only a matter of time before he suffers a loss. Unless he stays cooped up in Yejun forever and never leaves, he's bound to get beaten up.
