Bab 297: Chapter 296: Knocking on the Door (1 update)

Xu Niannian's threatening words were not spoken loudly; she deliberately bent close to the body of the landlady on the ground.

The icy phrase sent a shiver to one's core, and although the landlady had intended to cause a scene, she was suddenly frightened into a tremble.

Xu Niannian curved her lips into a faint smile, whispering into the landlady's ear, "You should know that there are some people in this world you can afford to offend, and others you cannot. If you push me to my limit, I might as well close my shop—I can make it so that your family won't be able to resolve the trouble I'll cause. Don't doubt my capability; there's nothing money can't fix. If you don't believe me, feel free to give it a try."

Having said her piece, Xu Niannian didn't linger to entangle herself further with the landlady, stopping while she was ahead and rising to walk towards her own shop.
