Chapter 540: Went Out Without Reading the Almanac (2)_1
Mo Yan chuckled softly, crouched down in front of Qiuyue, and with her index finger, gently lifted Qiuyue’s chin to size her up. After a look at the grumbling Mo Erni, who seemed eager to rush over, she spoke to Qiuyue in a tone of pity that was half genuine and half feigned, "You don’t seem like a fool, so why would you let yourself be used as a pawn so easily? There’s animosity between Mo Erni and me, and no one knows her better than I do! She’s using you to get at me. Besides seeking revenge, she wants you to be loathed by your young mistress so she can have a chance to present herself in front of your mistress and take your place! Don’t be foolish enough to treat a poisonous snake as a sister, or else you won’t even know how you died in the end."
Qiuyue’s face changed, her eyes flickering with doubt and suspicion as she looked at Mo Yan, clearly not quite believing what she was saying.
Unfazed, Mo Yan added more fuel to the fire, "Miss Qiuyue, think again, do those two colors of fabric really suit you when worn?"
Qiuyue had dark skin and was not at all suited to wear clothes of lake blue or light green—something Qiuyue surely knew.
As expected, Qiuyue’s face turned unsightly upon hearing Mo Yan’s words, her cold gaze shooting towards Mo Erni, looking like she had utterly detested Mo Erni now.
Seeing this, Mo Yan nodded in satisfaction and turned to Wu’s and the others, "Don’t hold her back, let her do it! She’s the kind of person who doesn’t need anyone else to act against her, she will sooner or later bring about her own downfall!"
Having said that, she no longer watched the ensuing commotion, took the fabric from the now-stupefied shopkeeper, and walked straight out of the Cloth Shop.
