CHAPTER 255: CHAPTER 268: SERVING AS THE DOOR GUARDIAN TO WARD OFF EVIL

"Lan Shan, could it be that you’re too scared to speak?"

Lan Shan couldn’t help but roll her eyes. She was almost certain that the person in front of her was a complete idiot.

Which eye of his saw that she was scared? With his limited skills in intimidation, it wasn’t even worth mentioning.

"If you don’t speak, I’ll take it as your silent consent, okay?" Seeing that she was ignoring him, Jiang Yan continued talking to himself.

Consent, my ass...

I just don’t want to deal with you...

After a while, Jiang Yan finally spoke again, "Since you’ve come to this point, I won’t say anything more. As long as you obediently date me, I can take back what I just said."

Upon hearing his words, Lan Shan couldn’t help but snicker inwardly. It was the first time she thought a man could be so narcissistic to this level. Really, shameless people are truly invincible.

Putting down her water glass, she glanced up at him, "Young Master Jiang, I really couldn’t tell that your face is so thick. It’s probably thicker than the corner of a city wall!"

"What did you say?" Jiang Yan roared angrily, suddenly standing up and glaring at Lan Shan.

The people eating around them heard the commotion and looked over at their table. Realizing people were watching him, Jiang Yan’s face turned alternating shades of blue and white, looking very displeased.

He sat back down awkwardly, his eyes fixed intently on Lan Shan, "Don’t push me."

Lan Shan curled her lips into a smile, "I only drink red wine or foreign liquor. What is this punishment wine you speak of? Isn’t that what Young Master Jiang drinks?"

Jiang Yan was furious, unable to get any advantage from his words, could only glare at her with a dark face.

At this moment, Lan Shan spoke again, "Young Master Jiang, don’t look at me like that. It makes me lose my appetite. Also, I think you’d make a great door god with that look."

"Door god?" Jiang Yan asked, frowning at the right time.

"Yes, to ward off evil spirits." Lan Shan explained with a laugh. The moment she finished, it was clear that Jiang Yan’s face looked even worse.

"Lan Shan." Jiang Yan smacked the table in anger, making a loud noise. The people around glanced over again, slightly displeased this time around.

After a while, people turned their gaze away.

Lan Shan, looking at the seething Jiang Yan as if smoke was about to come out of his head, sweetly smiled and said, "Young Master Jiang, don’t be angry. Frequent anger can easily lead to Alzheimer’s."

"You..." Jiang Yan reached out, angrily pointing at Lan Shan, unable to squeeze any words out.

"What about me? Could it be that Young Master Jiang doesn’t recognize me anymore? Oh my, you really might have Alzheimer’s. Do you need me to take you to the hospital?"

She emphasized the words "to the hospital," her gaze growing colder. Lan Shan was never one to shy away from trouble. If someone dared to threaten her, they better be prepared to face the consequences.

"Is this how the Lan Family teaches their daughters? The Lan Family is a prominent family, so how did they raise such an uncultured daughter?" Jiang Yan spat, extremely agitated.

Hearing this, Lan Shan didn’t get angry. Instead, she smiled and said, "Instead of criticizing me here, Young Master Jiang, perhaps you should reflect on yourself. As the mayor’s nephew, you not only fail to lead by example but also hang out with ruffians and hooligans. Doesn’t this deviate from the conduct expected of a reputable family?"

"Young Master Jiang repeatedly claims that my family didn’t raise me well or teach me etiquette. Then, concerning your parents having a son like you, are they fainting with anger all the time?"

As children, the one thing that cannot be tolerated is having one’s parents insulted. Lan Shan felt the same way. Talk about her however you like, but mentioning her parents was out of the question.
