Chapter 91: The Furious Old Lady of the Earth

  "You know what you've done, don't you?" Squatting down, one hand patted the woman's face, looking at her fearful eyes, "Weren't you very arrogant just now?"

  "Auntie, spare me, spare me!" The woman hastily scrambled to her knees and knocked her head against the ground violently, with a patch of blood instantly appearing on her forehead.

  As for the woman's kowtow, Sumo was unmoved and only said: "Return all the things you robbed from them to them."

  "Okay, okay, I'll change right away." The woman was quite embarrassed, but having been out and about, she knew this day would come. Although she had said it didn't matter at the time, when it actually happened, she was still terrified. At that moment, she had no dignity or face to speak of, although they were all barely standing upright. Still, she had to hold on, stumbling over to her own bed and pulling out everything from the suitcase that belonged to several women, as well as a few other things.

  She walked over to the trembling women, her eyes still scornful, and threw everything that belonged to them at their feet. Then she quickly walked up to Su Mo Ruo and handed over the things in her hands with a respectful gesture. "I beg of you, spare me, spare me, all these things are yours." If this girl's mother really called the police, the police would definitely arrive soon, and by that time, her whole life would probably be spent in prison. She was very clear about how many lives were on her shoulders, so she naturally knew which one was more important when comparing her own life to these worthless pieces of money.

  Looking at the woman's hands, there were many large and small boxes, several of which were also open, revealing the gold, silver, and jade inside. Indeed, it was a grand gesture, but these things didn't count as rare items for her. On her body, she always had an upright and righteous aura, with strong resistance to evil demons and private bribery.

  He hung his head, but for a long time he didn't see any movement in front of him. The thing in his hand was still in his hand, so he knew that he had run into someone who was upright and unyielding, couldn't be beaten or bribed. After thinking about it, he gritted his teeth, looked up at Su Mo Ruo, and threw everything in his hand towards her. He also quickly rushed towards the women hiding by the door.

  A hand waved open the golden, silver and jade that rushed towards him, his eyes narrowed, looking in the direction of the woman who had left, unexpectedly preparing to take a hostage to coerce her. Suddenly, anger rose, he glanced at the stool beside him, one foot stretched out, and the stool went straight towards the fat woman. By the time the fat woman reacted, the stool had already obediently fallen onto her body.

  "Ah——" The wooden stool was a small, wooden stool, still several meters away. Such a severe blow would likely leave some broken vertebrae on the woman's back. Su Mo rushed forward in just a few steps, her movements as swift as lightning, and subdued the woman with one hand. "So many wicked thoughts." Someone like this wasn't worth her spending so much time and energy to deal with.

  At this moment, the door was opened from outside and several men in police uniforms walked in with Liu Qin in between. As soon as they entered, Liu Qin rushed to her daughter, "Ruo Ruo, are you okay?" Earlier when she went out to report the incident, her heart had been racing with worry for her daughter. After finding out that this place was not far from the police station, she, being a poor woman who had suffered unfair treatment before, naturally feared that these people would delay after receiving the call, so she rushed to the nearest police station in the shortest time possible and explained the situation. Although those people were still very sloppy, they happened to meet a police officer who seemed to be an official returning, and they quickly followed her over.

  "Little girl, let her go first." Unexpectedly, the one who could subdue such a big fat woman was actually a girl under twenty years old. The man looked like he was in his late twenties, with dark skin but still a handsome guy. When looking at Su Mo Ruo, there was a flash of interest in his eyes.

  When Sumo looked up at the man who was speaking, her eyes flickered slightly, but quickly covered it up. "Officer Yan, take him away."

  The man, however, was motionless, standing rooted to the spot, his eyes fixed intently on Su Mo, as if he didn't dare believe his ears. The voice, and the fact that she knew his surname, all seemed too strange and eerie.

  "Who are you?" The man walked a few steps to Su Mo's front, his eyes filled with thick suspicion, and looked at Su Mo with a sharp gaze like a knife.

  No wonder she's one of the top members of the dragon tribe, best at discerning people's thoughts. Originally, there were very few people who could get along with her, and Yan Yuyang was one of the few friends she could talk to. She had already learned from Hao Gang that Mu Qing also existed in this world, but it was on the day she became Su Mo Ruo that Mu Qing was seriously injured while executing a mission in the Golden Triangle. At that time, among the people who received her, she remembered Yan Yuyang. However, during the reception process, they were exposed due to a traitor and surrounded by the enemy. She still remembers that in her previous life, Mu Qing took a bullet for Yan Yuyang. At that time, Yan Yuyang had asked her why, and her answer was just one sentence: Because there's no way to save me, it's better to let one comrade continue to serve the country.

  On that day, she still remembered that the man's eyes were full of shock and anger.

  She knew that year, probably what this man wanted was not this sentence. At that time, there was no love in her world.

  Her eyes were calm, meeting the anxious gaze of the man opposite her. She took a brief pause in her breathing, quickly adjusting herself, and looked up at him. "Officer Yan, we've met before, but it was just a fleeting encounter. It's normal that you don't remember. Please take this person away as soon as possible. My mother and I need to leave first."

  "Have we met before? Did I save you? Where?" Yan Yuyang still refused to believe, his memory was not as good as Mu Qing's, but it was absolutely not bad enough to forget a woman he had only met once. He would have felt familiar with her, but the cold girl in front of him, he didn't remember meeting at all. And he came to Donghai just a month ago because of that woman's death, he couldn't forgive himself, so his superiors gave him some time off to relax, and he chose Donghai, such a small police station, without knowing why. So, he could guarantee that he had never met this girl before.

  Her heart skipped a beat as she thought about the news from Hao Gang, and suddenly realized that she might have misspoken. However, she didn't want to explain further. This man's ability to see through things was not ordinary, so it was better not to say anything. Instantly, her whole body emitted a cold aura, and her eyes were icy as she stared at Yan Yuyang. "Officer Yan, I said we've met before, but you don't remember, that's fine. Now I want to leave, you can't possibly break the law and restrict my personal freedom."

  Because of this sentence, Yan Yuyang's heart ached sharply, but he gritted his teeth, and the corners of his eyes had already turned red. However, with his back to the others, only Su Moruo could see it, while Liu Qin was standing behind her daughter with her head lowered. She always felt that her daughter was different now, and something didn't seem right between her and this man, so she didn't participate in it.

  Su Mo turned his head, pulled his mother Liu Qin, and said softly, "Mom, let's go." From beginning to end, two different personalities, one second ago there was still a cold and bone-piercing chill on his body, but the next second, it had already melted like ice and snow, warm as spring.

  Is this her personality?

  Yan Yuyang shook his head, no, this was not right, Mu Qing could not be her, Mu Qing should be older than her, and she would never have treated her adoptive mother with the same gentleness as the girl from earlier, that soft voice and tone was something he had never heard before, not even towards her adoptive father or Hao Gang, his dry brother.

  With eyes wide open, watching Sumo Ruo pulling Liu Qin's hand, one hand holding a luggage bag, leaving his line of sight, Yan Yuyang's legs seemed to be nailed to the ground, unable to move at all.

  It wasn't until one of his subordinates couldn't help but walk up to Yan Yuyang and remind him, that he suddenly came to, looked at everything in front of him, and hastily gave orders for the people to be taken away.

  "Go investigate the identity of that girl from just now." As he was about to leave, Yan Yuyang couldn't help but instruct one of his entourage who had been following him. This matter must be clarified, otherwise, he would be unable to eat or sleep, and the name "Mu Qing" would be like a sharp knife piercing his heart, making it hard for him to breathe. And wasn't her disappearance also a huge blow to many people? She was the goddess in the hearts of these men, pure, flawless, noble, and unattainable, because among them, there was only one girl like Mu Qing.

  Found a relatively clean inn for foster mother Liu Qin, the environment has improved a lot, more importantly, it's close to Donghai University. Although Liu Qin asked about the price repeatedly, Su Mo Ruo put on an expression: "You're here to see me, so far away, and still unsure if you'll encounter danger, do you want me to worry?"

  And so, she shut Liu Qin's mouth and let her settle down here with peace of mind.

  Of course, Su Mo Ruo also asked her foster mother when she would leave. After all, looking at Liu Qin's appearance, she was not adapted to life here. She had been frugal since childhood and found that everything in these places was so expensive after coming out for a few days. Naturally, she didn't like it in her heart.

  Liu Qin replied that they had to wait for Qiao Nainai to return together, originally it was agreed that it would only be these two days, but it seemed that something had happened on Qiao Nainai's side again, so probably they would have to stay for a few more days.

  Seeing the worry in Liu Qin's heart, Su Mo couldn't help but comfort her, "Isn't it because you're thinking of me? Staying here for a few more days is also good for me to accompany you."

  Listening to her daughter's warm words, Liu Qin's eyes burst out with thick laughter. This daughter was not raised in vain, and filial piety was always there for her.

  Because there was still one more day of the weekend, Sumo stayed at Liuqin's place and didn't leave. At night, she simply ate something light, first to let Liuqin get used to it, and also to comfort her for staying overnight tonight. Tomorrow would be a good opportunity to take her out to eat some good food. She looked plump but was actually thin inside; from young to old, she had always been able to eat meat, but Liuqin insisted on leaving the best for her. In the past, there was also her husband who left food for her, but after he left, naturally no one left food for her anymore. So Sumo made up her mind that tomorrow she would take Liuqin out to eat a good meal.

  One evening, Sumo finally managed to persuade Liu Qin with great difficulty, and she reluctantly agreed to go out for a meal, but they had already agreed that it couldn't be too expensive.

  So on the second day, Su Mo brought Liu Qin to a riverside restaurant that was quite famous in Donghai for its spicy fish. The fish were all freshly caught from the river early in the morning, and they were absolutely fresh and deliciously priced. Su Mo remembered that her foster mother at home often just needed a pepper and a bowl of plain rice to be satisfied, so she also understood her taste was slightly spicy. Sure enough, when a plate of noodles covered with bright red peppers appeared, Liu Qin's face showed a few hints of excitement.

  Because they sat outside this spicy fish restaurant, at a small table just big enough for two people, Liu Qin felt that the place should not be expensive, and naturally she was more lively while eating.

  Watching Liu Qin eating fish slices with relish, Su Mo's chopsticks didn't move much, but she just smiled and watched her foster mother eat.

  Not far away, a table was separated by several tables of people eating and drinking merrily, completely covering up another table. However, the people at that other table all had their heads turned towards Sumojo and Liuqin's table.

  Several times in between almost got caught, finally let this person hide past, but when sticking head out, was even more careful.

  "Why aren't you eating, Ruo Ruo? It's really delicious." At this moment, her foster mother was savoring the spicy fish slices with a satisfied smile on her face, as if it were the most delicious fish slices she had ever eaten in her life. Seeing that her foster daughter wasn't moving her chopsticks, she quickly stretched out her other hand to give her foster daughter a pair of chopsticks, gesturing for her to eat too.

  Watching her foster mother's actions, Sumo Rou's face was gentle and soft, listening to her words, she stretched out her hand to take the chopsticks, smiled slightly, added a piece of fish, and started eating together.

  "How is it? It's delicious, right?" At this moment, Liu Qin had completely forgotten that Sumo had brought her to eat here before. How could she not know whether the food was good or not?

  "Uh, delicious." But Sumojo didn't refute it either, and responded with a very obedient sentence, lowering his head to slowly eat, those elegant movements seemed to be innate.

  Slowly, some diners in the store also noticed Su Mo Ruo and her adoptive mother Liu Qin's strange combination. A rustic and dirty old woman, a beautiful and noble girl who looked like a princess, two people who could not be together no matter what, but they saw this scene, and the dirty old woman's hand that didn't know whether it was washed or not, actually gave the girl chopsticks, and the girl didn't mind at all, took the chopsticks and ate with the old woman.

  "What's wrong?"

  Min Jing had always felt that something was off about Ning Shi Yang, but she had also followed his line of sight several times, only to be blocked by many people and couldn't see anything. The food here was delicious anyway, so she naturally didn't have any gossip in her mind and focused on eating her own food. However, when she saw Ning Shi Yang quickly taking out his phone and making a call to someone, she couldn't help but ask.

  She slightly frowned, Ning Shi Yang stretched out her hand to cover her lips and made a "shh" gesture. The phone call was answered, and she quickly said a few words before hanging up the phone. Of course, the address must not be leaked.

  After hanging up the phone, his eyes kept drifting forward from time to time.

  At this time, Min Jing was a bit strange. Today, because Su Mo Ruo wasn't there and Que Meng Yu had something at home, only the two of them came out to dinner, which made her feel a bit sulky in her heart. But she didn't expect that while eating, Ning Shi Yang also played tricks on her, suddenly making a scene at the table. "What's wrong with you?"

  Ning Shi Yang listened to Min Jing's loud voice, and her face changed instantly. She glanced around and found that the surrounding voices were very loud. She slightly tilted her head to look at Su Mo Ruo, who was eating normally in front of her, before turning back to Min Jing with a hint of reprimand in her eyes. "Min Jing, stop causing trouble. You know the relationship between Mo Ruo and our family. My aunt is coming over again, staying at our house under the pretext of taking care of my two siblings, but in reality, we all know she's looking for an opportunity to win back Su Mo Ruo, her eldest daughter."

  Min Jing listened to Ning Shi Yang's astonishing explanation, and suddenly covered her mouth. She then made an effort to turn her head to see if Su Mo Ruo was nearby, otherwise, why would Ning Shi Yang be so strange?

  Watching Min Jing's actions, Ning Shi Yang got a headache and hurriedly stretched out her hand to pull away the large earrings of her good friend. She knew that this was something her good friend cared about most, just like the tiger's buttocks, which no one could touch.

  Sure, here is the translation:

  As expected, he quickly stopped his action of looking forward and turned around to glare at Ning Shi Yang fiercely, but didn't say a word.

  About an hour had passed, and because it was so delicious, Sumojo ordered another serving for Liu Qin. To comfort Liu Qin, he said that originally there were two basins at a time, but the fish was quite large and the table was relatively small, so they could only serve one basin at a time.

  It's also good at deceiving Liu Qin, if it were someone else, they might not be so easy to deceive.

  "We can't finish it, and there's still so much left." This meal took a long time to eat, and almost no one was left around, but there were still several tables nearby, chatting with each other, which made the atmosphere lively. Liu Qin looked at the large bowl and saw that more than half of the fish meat was left, and her eyes showed a hint of distress. After all, this was bought with money, and it's natural to feel distressed.

  Looking at Liu Qin's eyes and listening to her words, Su Mo Ruo understood what she meant. However, this was indeed a difficult situation for her. Where could they put this thing? In Donghai, they didn't have a home, so it wasn't as if they could bring it back to their old home either.

  As it turns out, Liu Qin really had such a silly idea, but she just didn't say it out loud.

  Su Mo's face revealed a smile, "Mom, there's no place for us to heat this thing up even if we bring it back."

  Liu Qin listened to her daughter's words and knew that it might be difficult to take some away, so she thought for a moment and could only pick up the chopsticks again and start attacking the fish meat in the bowl once more.

  Good heavens! Su Mo Ruo watched as Liu Qin's actions were about to be stopped, "Mom, don't eat anymore, aren't you all full already?"

  "Where did this country bumpkin come from? They eat this stuff like it's treasure, people who don't know any better would really think you've never eaten anything in eight lifetimes." The speaker was a girl who walked out of the store, looking like she had just finished eating inside. When she saw Su Mo's table, her voice couldn't help but blurt out.

  Liu Qin looked up at the person speaking, saw the girl's eyes looking down on herself, and suddenly glanced at Su Mo Ruo, hating herself extremely in her heart. Why did she agree to let her daughter go out for dinner today? She had lost face because of her daughter.

  "I said Su Mo Ruo, this country bumpkin, won't you be that poor and astringent old mother of yours?" The girl surprisingly knew Su Mo Ruo, directly pointing out her name, with an extremely disdainful gaze at Su Mo Ruo.

  Because of the girl's words, she also attracted the customers at several tables next to her. Just now, they all thought that Sumojo was a noble and elegant person, and a woman like an old mother should not have much intersection with her. Suddenly, she was stunned by the girl's words, looking at Sumojo's eyes, which were somewhat strange.

  No wonder, Mom dresses so shabbily, while she herself looks absolutely no worse off. Comparing the two, they really don't look like mother and daughter at all.

  Her sharp eyes, like a knife, shot towards the girl who was speaking. This girl, she naturally recognized her as a classmate, but they didn't have much to do with each other. However, it seemed that the man she liked often looked at her with adoring eyes, so in class, she always found fault with her and wouldn't let go of any opportunity to mock her. But today, she hadn't expected to run into her here.

  "......Don't talk nonsense, I...I...I am not her mother." Liu Qin's voice was a bit hesitant, and when she finished speaking, her face turned bright red.

  The words of Liu Qin also sounded beside her ear, Su Mo Ruo was both angry and furious in her heart, but she finally endured it, looked coldly at the girl, and then fixed her gaze on her foster mother Liu Qin, "Mom, what did you just say?"

  "Ah... Ah..." Facing his adopted daughter's gaze, Liu Qin always felt a bit overwhelmed, and when speaking, her eyes would also dodge hastily.

  "Alright, let's finish eating and pack up. We can just find a place to warm up later." Since her foster mother liked it that way, she went along with it, even though the cost of packing up and warming up would be more expensive than not packing at all. But since her foster mother liked it, that was fine.

  When she heard that her daughter had agreed to take her away, Liu Qin's face was filled with smiles, and her simple and innocent appearance made it seem as if she hadn't taken Su Mo Ruo's words to heart at all.

  "Hey, I'm talking to you, are you deaf or something? Can't you hear me?" The girl's scolding voice stood out even more in the quiet space.

  Su Mo did not seem to be affected by these words, slowly and calmly stood up from his seat, looked at the several waiters who were standing not far away, seemingly wanting to join in on the excitement, and said in a cold voice: "Pack it up."

  "Cut it out, country bumpkin."

  "Just said no takeout, what's with the big shot act."

  "It's just that I couldn't see how strong this girl's vanity was."

  "It's just, why aren't you pretending anymore."

  A low murmur of discussion rose and fell in waves.

  Sumo's expression was cold and clear, gazing at the several waiters standing still on the spot, Sumo's eyes suddenly burst out with intense chilliness, "If you don't do as I say, I think this store of yours will disappear immediately."

  Who would believe this, so a crowd of people looked at Su Mo with disdain.

  Some people even say Sumo is afraid of losing face and has started to stubbornly cling to it.

  "Put on a fart and look at your old mother." The girl started shouting again.

  Su Mo finally focused his gaze on the girl, looking at her high-bridged nose, and she seemed to be a decent-looking person, but somehow her character didn't seem quite right.

  "Don't you have the right to choose your own mother? The good life you have now is all given by your parents, not earned by yourself. You're relying on your family's power and your parents' power, understand?" Su Mo said this directly to a girl in her class who had been constantly insulting Liu Qin, after scanning the room with a glance. However, she spoke very loudly, so it was unclear how many people heard her words.

  Some people started getting angry and were about to speak up when Sumo Rou took precedence over them.

  She only saw her bowing her head to comfort the seemingly frightened Liu Qin, and then she raised her head, her eyes sharp and icy cold, like the ice peaks on a glacier, piercingly cold, making people dare not look directly at her.

  "The time for me to pack up for you has passed, and this store of yours should also close." After finishing speaking, under the gaze of everyone's disdain and disbelief, he took out his phone and dialed a number directly.

  At that time, Wang Qihua gave her his private phone number, which naturally had a component of Ji Lan's introduction, otherwise the leader's private phone number would not be given to her just because they had only met once.

  However, on this side of the East China Sea, she has not yet infiltrated any power, and the real estate side has just acted, and it has not officially come over yet. In the early stage, it was only an investigation, finding people to connect, so the person found is Wang Qihua.

  Such a small spicy fish shop should be no big deal.

  The phone rang for a while before letting Wang Qihua pick it up, looking like he was very busy.

  "Director Su?" On the other end of the phone, Wang Qihua was clearly very surprised that Su Moruo would call him, and at this time. After all, from their encounter that night, and from the news he got from Ji Lan, Director Su's personality was such that unless it was really important, he wouldn't take the initiative to call him. Even if it was about arranging a meeting, it would definitely be one of his subordinates, Ji Lan or Li Yang, who would make the call.

  It turned out that the two people had exchanged phone numbers that day, and her number was also stored by Wang Qihua first. It seems that Wang Qihua's relationship with Ji Lan is not bad after all, and he is not a hypocrite either, leaving his name as well as his phone number.

  Although it was just such a small title, King Qi Hua made Su Mo Ruo's impression even more impressive.

  "Mayor Wang, I don't know if I'm disturbing your work." Su Mo's voice was soft and gentle, but when speaking to Wang Qihua at this moment, it could make Wang Qihua feel the other party's gentleness, however, he could also sense that something was slightly off.

  After so many years of navigating the officialdom, I can tell by listening to a phone call. So, without beating around the bush, he asked directly: "Have you encountered some trouble?"

  "It's not a big deal, but the service attitude of Yangji Mala Fish near the river on XX Road is not very good. Recently, isn't Donghai creating a civilized city? With such a quality restaurant, my mom and I came to eat, but because my mom was dressed casually, they looked down on us. Seeing the surrounding diners speaking ill of us, even with sarcastic remarks, we asked for takeout, but they made us wait for a long time without taking any action. I don't know if it will become a rotten fly in the future and bring unnecessary trouble to your government's follow-up work." Su Mo said this very clearly, and Wang Qihua is not an ordinary person, so she believes he will understand the meaning behind her words.

  As expected, Wang Qihu's voice turned serious. "Don't worry, I'll have someone take care of it right away. Within half an hour at most, there will be someone going over."

  Su Mo knew as soon as he heard this that Wang Qihua had helped him out, and didn't say anything more, simply saying "you're busy" before hanging up the phone.

  After hanging up the phone, Wang Qihua put down his work and shouted at the secretary by the door: "Xiao Qin, help me contact the Health Bureau..."

  It's not surprising that such a small restaurant would have such things happen, but as for Su Mo, her mother must be her adoptive mother. After the gathering that night, she had already investigated and found out about Su Mo's true identity. It turned out that Su Mo was actually a member of the Ning family, the eldest daughter of the Ning family's eldest son. She had been wandering outside for many years. Moreover, Su Mo also had a relationship with Ji Lan. Her impression of this girl wasn't bad either. At such a young age, she already had such a successful business and was able to make ordinary people envious.

  And such a fly shop can also be used to kill chickens and monkeys, why not?

  But it's also hard to say that when officials think, they have too many twists and turns. For a simple matter, they can pull out countless things.

  After Sumo hung up the phone, people around him looked at him in surprise one by one.

  Although it is said that even if you live in this city and don't bother to understand, you may not know what the mayor's surname is. However, among these people, there are also some who like to understand politics, and of course, there are also some with better family backgrounds. So when they heard Su Mo Ruo making a phone call, his pretentious appearance really scared some people.

  "Acting like a fool and getting struck by lightning, didn't you know that?" Someone nearby started shouting, in their opinion, Su Mo was simply too interesting.

  Especially the owner of the fish shop, his eyes were even more disdainful. To say that he had been running a fish shop in this area for decades, and now he was already over 40 years old. He started to struggle here when he was just over ten years old, and now he finally had such a family business, so naturally he also had some interpersonal relationships. So, in their opinion, Su Mo's actions could only be considered childish.

  "I'm telling you, young lady, hurry up and settle the bill so I won't have to make things difficult for you." The shop owner seemed to still want to put on a good face, letting Su Mo pay the bill and leave directly.

  Su Moer didn't even glance at the crowd, but instead smiled faintly at her adoptive mother, Liu Qin, who was standing opposite her. "Mom, let's wait a bit longer," she said. She couldn't avoid this matter from becoming a shadow in her adoptive mother's heart, but she would never let her mother suffer and endure it silently.

  Liu Qin's eyes were already red-rimmed, she shook her head hard and looked at her adopted daughter, "Let's go Ruo Ruo, we're leaving, this place isn't suitable for me."

  His throat was choked, and his eyes suddenly turned cold, scanning the crowd until he met the gaze of the store owner, "Half an hour, at most."

  The people around don't understand, and the shop owner doesn't understand either.

  However, everyone still felt that something was going to happen half an hour later, so no one left. The female classmates who were looking for Su Mo Ruo at the beginning sat down at the table next to her and kept whispering in her ear, naturally saying some unpleasant words.

  However, Sumojo remained calm from start to finish.

  "Eh, I'm telling you, Su Mo Ruo, you've been sitting here for so long, aren't you just trying to put on a show and scare the boss into giving you a free meal? Haha, I think you don't need to bother, missy still has some money. Why don't you stick your face out and let me slap you twice, and this meal will be on me?" The girl's arrogant voice and words made people want to slap her hard just listening to it.

  Because she spoke in a relatively low voice, even though Liu Qin stretched her neck, she could only hear a few disjointed words.

  Su Mo didn't get angry, but instead looked at the girl in front of him with a hint of a smile, "Oh? So that means as long as you have money, you can also get someone to beat people up?"

  "Haha, it depends on how much money is involved. I'm a precious lady, and if someone just slaps me casually, they'll have to compensate me with tens of thousands." The girl seemed very proud that she was so valuable and precious.

  The words had barely fallen when a crisp slapping sound "slap" rang out, causing the space to fall silent once again.

  "You - Su Mo, don't you want to stay in the East Sea anymore? You even dare to hit me!" The girl couldn't believe that she had been slapped by Su Mo. One hand covered her face, and the other pointed at Su Mo, loudly accusing him. Her eyes were almost spitting fire.

  "Bang——" This time it wasn't applause, but a bundle of gray Mao's head hitting the girl's head. The force seemed to be controlled, and the girl was just shaking her head, but fortunately she didn't pass out. Judging from the thickness of the bundle, it must have been at least 20,000 yuan.

  "What are you do—" The rest of the words got stuck in his throat, his eyes wide with shock as the things that had been smashed to pieces fell before his very eyes. He reached out a hand to pick them up, staring at them incredulously for several moments before tearing open the paper strips tied around the money, revealing row after row of gray-haired old men inside.

  Her voice was a little hoarse, and the girl looked at the money in front of her, rubbed her eyes, and then rubbed them again.

  "This... this isn't a blank sheet of paper?" someone exclaimed, seemingly influenced by the Hong Kong and Taiwan gangster TV dramas.

  Liu Qin also stared at her daughter with some stuttering, so much money, although she had received a sum of money recently, but all her life she had been poor and had never seen such a large amount of money being thrown out like that. Liu Qin's eyes were fixed on the stack of money, which was what her daughter had thrown out. Hadn't she gone blind? Where did her daughter get so much money from?

  And what's more, spending money so lavishly.

  "Y...y..." The female classmate's eyes were fixed on Su Mo, but due to the stimulation of this pile of money, she couldn't say anything at all.

  "What's wrong with me?" Somewhat smiling and somewhat not, he looked at this woman, Su Mo Ruo felt annoyed in his heart.

  "I... I..."

  Just then, two cars stopped in front of Yang's Spicy Fish and several people wearing sanitation law enforcement uniforms got out and walked straight towards the fish shop.

  "Hey, a few big brothers, what can I get for you?" The boss himself came up to greet them, his face almost splitting into a smile, his eyes twinkling with excitement. His face and eyes seemed eager to stick themselves onto the customers' backsides, just hoping to establish some connection with these people.

  But unexpectedly, the person who spoke to him first had a serious expression and an even more serious tone, "Routine inspection." After finishing speaking, he ignored the boss's shout of surprise and the waiter's obstruction, and went straight to the kitchen.

  The owner of the store was shocked, as officials from the health department often came to his place to eat and he had rarely received any money from them. Every time they were treated with good food and drink, which is why his store had been open for so many years without any incidents. But today, these people came over and didn't even give him a notice, and among the people who came, there were two who normally called him "brother" or "friend", but today they just coldly followed orders and went to his kitchen, leaving him shocked. What was in the kitchen, he knew best as the owner.

  Combining the phone call with the little girl who was just ridiculed by him, he was suddenly shocked and began to suspect whether it was that phone call or not, whether it was pretending to be tough or just making a show.

  The people outside were in a state of shock and uncertainty, with each pair of eyes unintentionally scanning towards Sumo Luo. Some busybodies had adjusted their timing, just half an hour ago.

  Slowly, some people began to discuss it.

  It seems like people from Country Z are all like this, as soon as something happens, they love to start gossiping.

  Just now, Su Mo said only three words "half an hour", but now, exactly half an hour later, there are people from the Health Bureau coming to inspect, and even people from the Food Safety Department are coming together. From this, it can be seen that this matter is related to Su Mo's phone call just now.

  Liu Qin was also frightened by this sudden movement.

  After a while, several law enforcement personnel who entered the fish store came out and whispered a few words to a person waiting outside who seemed to be in charge, then stood beside the man.

  "Boss Yang, just close down this shop." The tone was one of resignation, yet it was absolutely resolute, leaving no room for objection.

  The boss obviously didn't expect things to turn out this way either. Didn't he just have a conflict with that girl earlier?

  But he couldn't believe that a little kid could make his store, which had been open for decades in this area, close down within just half an hour.

  Her face flushed with anger, she glared at Sumo standing by the door and shouted: "You dead girl, tell me, is this your doing?"

  "Boss Yang, harmony brings wealth. This isn't the first or second time your store has had problems. This time, it's a direct order from above." A person who seemed to have a relatively good relationship with Boss Yang walked over and whispered this in his ear, as if reminding him to be mindful of his boundaries.

  While others who had not yet left to prepare for the lively event looked at this sudden turn of events, they all widened their eyes in shock. As they watched Su Mo and Liu Qin, they couldn't help but swallow hard, and a hint of fear crept into their gazes.

  Just now I was still preparing to teach Su Mo Ruo's female classmate a lesson, but at this moment, holding the 200,000 yuan in my hand, under the surprised gaze of friends, I turned and left.

  Twenty thousand yuan is nothing, she thought to herself, what a fool she would be to stay here, soon the money won't even belong to her alone. The girl's thoughts ran quickly as her feet moved faster.

  Others also sensed that something was wrong and put down their chopsticks, didn't even settle the bill, and ran far away in a hurry.

  The boss Yang left behind, the angry and defeated roar, however, was met with complete silence.

  Before long, the people had all gone, and Ning Shi Yang took Min Jing with him and also withdrew to wait by the river outside for Lian Hong Ya's arrival.

  Sumo Ruo smiled faintly, took his mother's hand, and put 200 yuan on the table from his bag. He turned around and left, with a calm and composed back, giving off an aura of dignity and authority.

  Looking at Sumo's back, looking at the 200 yuan on the other person's table, and then looking at the law enforcement personnel behind him, he suddenly turned pale. He finally accepted this reality, probably everything was because of this girl. He regretted it to death in his heart, he shouldn't have looked down on people, but things had already happened, things were already destined, his store, just like what the little girl said, couldn't be opened anymore.
