Lan Chengzhi said with some disdain, "Lan Yao, you just spout nonsense. Do you even know how much 20,000 is? You couldn't earn that much money even if you worked for three lifetimes!"
Lan Yao glanced at him indifferently, then curled the corners of her lips and asked with a smile, "My hands are a little itchy. Do you want to come closer to me? That would save us from all that nonsense."
Lan Chengzhi: ...
He immediately chickened out and instinctively hid behind his uncle.
Lan Xingwang: ...
That useless nephew!
Mao Fan wanted to speak, but his father stopped him. Mao Fan said angrily, "Dad, why are you pulling me?"
Mao Fang was furious. His youngest son was so spoiled by his mother that he had no brains at all! He had been beaten up so badly, and he still hadn't learned his lesson.
Mao Fang hissed, "What are you doing getting involved? Your uncle is still here."
As for that little girl Lan Yao, there will be plenty of time to deal with her later.
Mao Fan pouted, somewhat unconvinced. But since it was his own father who had spoken, he could only swallow his resentment.
Lan Xingcheng was somewhat annoyed: "You wretched child, how dare you talk to your cousin like that? I think you're asking for a beating. Today I'm going to enforce family discipline on you no matter what!"
Lan Chengzhi added fuel to the fire from the side: "Uncle, you should have done this a long time ago. Look at Lan Yao's ill-mannered behavior, it's embarrassing to talk about."
Lan Yao chuckled twice: "What kind of good family is it that teaches counterfeiters to be so narrow-minded and intolerant? Not to mention, I wasn't raised by your Lan family. I've never eaten a single grain of rice or drunk a single drop of water from your Lan family. What nonsense are you talking to me about manners! Your family, which is so shameless, is not qualified to teach me? What a joke!"
If you dare touch me again today, even if you don't call the police, I will! I want to see just how your Lan family abuses your own daughter and bullies ordinary people.
“You…” Lan Xingcheng pointed at her, his body trembling.
Lan Yao slapped him hard, her eyes fierce: "Try pointing at another one? I don't mind breaking it off for you!"
She looked at Lan Xingwang with a half-smile: "Have you had enough of the show? I don't want to waste my breath! Are you going to give me what I want or not? If you're not going to give it to me, I'll go out right now and let all the neighbors living near your house see just how much the men in your Lan family like counterfeit goods, flirting with her every day, and wishing they could pin her down on the bed and pamper her."
Otherwise, why would he fight for her every day? By the way, I heard that the authorities are cracking down on matters between men and women lately. I wonder if all the men in your Lan family have to eat peanuts now?
As Lan Yao spoke, every man in the Lan family present changed his expression.
Lan Jiaojiao looked terrified. She stopped pretending to be pitiful and cried as she questioned Lan Yao, "Why did you hurt me? I didn't do it! I didn't! Don't slander me!"
"Aren't you one? Then why are they all acting like they're blinded by lust, not even bothering to ask right or wrong, all eager to charge into battle for you? Looks like you're the vixen they're talking about..."
Lan Yao seemed startled and covered her mouth, saying, "Look at me, how could I say such a thing?"
Lan Xingwang rubbed his aching forehead, glared fiercely at his stupid younger brother, and said to Lan Yao, "Twenty thousand is too much. We don't have any right now. We can only give you two thousand at most."
Lan Yao: "Two thousand is too little. Lan Jiaojiao said that your family is extremely wealthy, the richest family in Shanghai. If it's less than twenty thousand, I'll drag Lan Jiaojiao out right now."
Lan Xingwang: "Five thousand is the most we can go. All the money in our family has already been donated before."
"No. Just 20,000." It was donated, but I don't know how much. Don't think I don't know how much money your family actually has.
"Five thousand, that's really the most I can ask for." Lan Xingwang squinted at her.
If Lan Yao really doesn't accept the 5,000, Lan Xingwang won't care. Anyway, if they lose face, go to jail, or get punished, that's their third branch's problem, not their first branch's. They weren't born of the same mother.
Lan Yao thought about it carefully for a moment, then smiled and said, "Okay. Then hand over the goods now. We'll exchange money for goods."
Five thousand it is, anyway, the Lan family's money will be hers sooner or later.
Lan Xingcheng was about to say something when Lan Xingwang glared at him, so Lan Xingcheng could only shut his mouth. He thought he would deal with this little beast properly after this matter was over.
Lan Yao saw right through Lan Xingcheng's little scheme. No rush, there's still time to deal with them...
Lan Yao gripped Lan Jiaojiao's neck, slowly tightening her grip little by little. Just as Lan Jiaojiao was about to faint from the shock, she released her grip. This was repeated several times. Just as Lan Yao was about to lose her patience, Lan Xingwang finally brought her what she wanted.
Lan Yao casually tossed Lan Jiaojiao into Lan Xingcheng's arms, and Lan Jiaojiao hugged Lan Xingcheng, crying with tears streaming down her face.
"Daddy, Lan Yao tried to kill me! She was choking me the whole time, waaaaah, she's so scary~"
Lan Yao ignored them, glanced at the contents of the box, checked, and found that two items were missing.
Lan Yao narrowed her eyes, and Lan Jiaojiao, who was leaning against Lan Xingcheng's chest, instinctively stiffened. She thought to herself, "Could it be that the other party has discovered it?"
Waaaaah, today was such a terrible day, her jade pendant!
right!
Lan Jiaojiao raised her face, which was swollen like a pig's head, and looked pitifully at Lan Xingcheng: "Waaah, Dad, my jade pendant is still in Lan Jiaojiao's hands."
Before she could finish speaking, and before Lan Xingcheng could even reply, Lan Xingwang glared impatiently at this clueless fool. At a time like this, what more could he want than a jade pendant?
Lan Xingwang said in an unfriendly tone, "Third brother, take your stupid girl away."
When Lan Jiaojiao met her uncle's sharp gaze, she was so frightened that she immediately fell silent.
Lan Xingcheng patted Lan Jiaojiao on the back and comforted her, "Alright, Jiaojiao, don't cry. Dad has a few nice jade pendants. I'll take them out and give them to you in a bit."
Lan Yao smiled enigmatically: "Lan Xingcheng, you're really generous. I don't believe you and Lan Jiaojiao have nothing going on. I hope your wife can accept Lan Jiaojiao."
After she finished speaking, she said to Lan Xingwang, "Hurry up and take your idiot away."
Lan Xingwang gave her a deep look, then shouted at Lan Xingcheng and the others, "What are you still standing here for? Get out of here!"
Under Lan Xingwang's glare, the group reluctantly left.
As soon as they left, Lan Yao returned to her room. She was about to take out the jade pendant she had gotten from Lan Jiaojiao when she discovered that the jade pendant was gone, and her space seemed to have undergone a significant change.
The space, originally just for storing supplies, now seems to have some additional land? And there's mist in the distance? It looks like this space can be expanded further?
Lan Yao touched her chin, ignoring all that for now. She took out a nutritional supplement and drank it. In no time, her mental strength and physical abilities were fully restored.
Lan Yao closed her eyes, cleared her mind, and expanded her spiritual power outward, quickly discovering many of the Lan family's hidden treasure locations...
