CHAPTER 290: CHAPTER 290: COURTESY BEFORE FORCE

"Good, very good, Jiang Mingfeng!" Ming Lan glared at Father Jiang, almost livid with anger. She initially thought that coming personally would show him enough respect, and he should obediently withdraw the lawsuit.

Perhaps, if she just spent a little money, this issue might be resolved. But unexpectedly, Jiang Mingfeng didn’t budge an inch.

In this case, she had no choice but to consider other methods.

It is often said to use diplomacy before force. Since civility couldn’t persuade Jiang Mingfeng to withdraw the lawsuit, she had no option but to resort to force. Fortunately, she was prepared and had brought two people with her.

Now, since Jiang Mingfeng was being uncooperative, she decided to give him a little lesson, so he would know that the Jiang Family was not to be trifled with.

Still, before resorting to force, Ming Lan asked once more, "Mr. Jiang, I’m asking you again, do you withdraw the lawsuit or not?"

"Mrs. Jiang, we have nothing to discuss. I definitely will not withdraw this lawsuit, so Mrs. Jiang, you should not waste your time on me."

"Jiang Mingfeng, I have given you a chance. Since you do not cherish it, don’t blame me for being rude." Ming Lan’s voice turned a few degrees colder, her gaze becoming icy as she told the people beside her, "Take him away."

"How dare you!" Father Jiang’s face changed, and he shouted loudly.

With his roar, Mr. Mu and Old Sir Jiang, who were talking inside the room, heard everything clearly. Hence, Mr. Mu directly instructed Housekeeper Lin, "Zi’an, go and see what’s going on outside?"

"Okay, Sir!" Housekeeper Lin said as he walked towards the door.

Old Jiang also noticed this and instructed the people beside him, "You also go and have a look!"

Hearing the words, Old Jiang’s subordinates followed Housekeeper Lin to the door. Arriving at the door, Housekeeper Lin glanced at Father Jiang, then looked at Ming Lan and the two people she brought, and asked, "Mr. Jiang, the master asked me to inquire about what happened?"

Seeing Housekeeper Lin, Father Jiang’s face softened a bit, then pointed at Ming Lan and said, "This Mrs. Jiang is Jiang Mingzhu’s mother. She wants me to withdraw the lawsuit, and since I refused, she says she wants to take me away."

"Second Madam Jiang?" Housekeeper Lin, after hearing Father Jiang’s words, turned and looked at Ming Lan. Regarding Ming Lan, he did have some impression, knowing she was not only the second madam of the Jiang Family but also the eldest miss of the Ming Family.

"Who are you?" Ming Lan’s complexion changed slightly when she saw Housekeeper Lin. She didn’t recognize Housekeeper Lin, but judging from his demeanor and attire, he clearly did not look like an ordinary person.

Ming Lan was somewhat puzzled, wondering how this man could be at Jiang Xue’s home?

"My surname is Lin." Housekeeper Lin glanced at Ming Lan and replied indifferently.

"Second Madam!" At this moment, suddenly Old Sir Jiang’s subordinate spoke. The familiar voice stunned Ming Lan, and she turned her head to look at the person.

"Xiao Wang, why are you here?" Ming Lan recognized the man, knowing he was Old Jiang’s personal bodyguard.

Now that Xiao Wang was here, could it mean that Old Jiang was also here?

Thinking of Old Jiang, Ming Lan’s expression abruptly changed. If Old Jiang were here, then her unannounced appearance could be a violation of family rules.

Fearful of the Jiang Family’s rules, Ming Lan looked at Xiao Wang and asked, "Is the master here too?"

"Yes, Second Madam, both the master and the old madam are here. Would the Second Madam like to go and greet them?" Xiao Wang looked at Ming Lan, saying without any expression. Being Old Jiang’s personal bodyguard, he didn’t have much interaction with Ming Lan.

However, he did know something about Ming Lan’s temper.
