Haven’t they said that they would handle it properly? If so, then how come Ning Meng Yao knows about it?
No, she must be tricking me just to give me a scare.
“I don’t understand what you’re talking about.” Yang Xiu Er gritted her teeth while glaring at Ning Meng Yao.
Ning Meng Yao smiled at Yang Xiu Er: “Oh, you know very well what I’m talking about. That rich person’s servant must be really stylish, isn’t she? Are you thinking of living such a life as well?” Ning Meng Yao suddenly took a few steps closer towards Yang Xiu Er and whispered into her ear.
Yang Xiu Er slightly stiffened, her eyes flustered: “I have no idea what you’re talking about.”
“You really don’t? Well, it doesn’t matter if you don’t understand me now. You’ll understand soon enough.” Ning Meng Yao smiled nonchalantly.
Yang Xiu Er vigilantly watched Ning Meng Yao. After a while, with some doubts, she asked: “What are you planning?”
“What am I planning? Yang Xiu Er, I intending to let you off, but you always make trouble for me. If this is the case, then don’t blame me for being unkind.” Ning Meng Yao’s lips curled slightly upwards while she was looked at Yang Xiu Er as if she was seeing a corpse.
Yang Xiu Er’s body stiffened even more: “You dare? They won’t let you do as you please!”
Seeing Yang Xiu Er’s fearful expression, Ning Meng Yao couldn’t help but laugh scornfully: “You’re telling me that they’ll help you? Are you kidding me?”
What could cause a selfish person like Xiao Zi Xuan to help such a lowly peasant? It was already good enough that she didn’t push responsibility for this matter onto Yang Xiu Er.
Under Ning Meng Yao’s mocking gaze, Yang Xiu Er really couldn’t keep going anymore so she hurriedly left. She was going to tell those people that Ning Meng Yao knew about the truth.
Looking at Yang Xiu Er’s back, Ning Meng Yao smiled mockingly.
After Yang Xiu Er returned home, she was constantly feeling uneasy and was even extremely worried about it.
If this continued, she certainly would be caught. At that time, her family would also be driven out of White Mountain Village.
The more she thought about it, the more afraid she was. The very next morning she quickly went to the town.
When Ning Meng Yao got the news, she sighed.
Yang Xiu Er came to the place where she met the servant before: “Grandmother, things are bad.”
“What are you so worried about? Calm down and tell me slowly.” The servant was very unhappy. Watching Yang Xiu Er’s panicked expression, she was even feeling a little angry.
Yang Xiu Er felt somewhat afraid of the servant, but still she spoke in worry: “Ning Meng Yao knows that the incident has something to do with me.”
The servant looked at Yang Xiu Er and said helplessly: “What does this have to do with me?”
Yang Xiu Er was dumbfounded. She couldn’t believe what the person in front of her said: “Isn’t this something that you ordered me to do? Now that something went wrong on your part, you aren’t even going to admit it?”
The servant looked at Yang Xiu Er with a sneer, then she said sarcastically: “You’re saying that we ordered you do it? But you have accepted the money, right? Besides, do you have any evidence that we did it? In fact, we can even sue you for stealing our money.”
Yang Xiu Er couldn’t believe her ears. How can this be? This wasn’t going as she planned. Why did things become like this?
“No… You can’t do this. You can’t do this to me!” Yang Xiu Er panicked.
She thought of what Ning Meng Yao said. Ning Meng Yao hadn’t even really considered this matter yet. If she actually started to investigate, Yang Xiu Er would be finished for sure. She couldn’t let this happen.
The servant looked at Yang Xiu Er’s flustered face and she mocked her: “What can’t we do? Why do I not understand a single word you’re saying, missy?”
Her attitude made Yang Xiu Er really scared: “You’re not afraid that I’ll testify against you?”
“Testify? What evidence do you have? If you can’t provide any evidence, we can easily sue you for theft. Do you know what the consequences of that are?” Not only was she not afraid, she was also openly mocking Yang Xiu Er.
