Chapter 297 - 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.
Only then did the landlady come back to her senses, the thought of Xu Niannian’s threat causing her to tremble with fear.
That’s right, how could she have forgotten about this?
The man who had been helping out in Xu Niannian’s shop, many customers said, seemed to be some sort of high official.
The landlady wasn’t so scheming to just do evil deeds.
The reason she had framed Xu Niannian’s shop for selling unclean products was because her business had been significantly taken over, and she couldn’t stand it.
Having unexpectedly faced retaliation from Xu Niannian, it was in a fit of rage that she thought to sort her out and teach her a lesson.
