Chapter 144: To the Court

“In your dreams!” The manager, who was at the mercy of Sword One, was still acting restlessly. “No compensation will be given out for the sold garments! If you want money, make this so-called Lady Chaoyan pay you back! You better ask her for help now, otherwise she herself will fall into trouble very soon.”

Slap...

The manager had just finished his words when Sword One slapped him right on the face.

That was a hard slap that made half of his cheek swollen.

Sword One was indeed angry. She had never met anyone who spoke so highly of himself when he was hoaxing the commoners.

With hand over his cheek, the manager pointed at Sword One. “How dare you hit me! I am Mrs. Gu’s cousin! I will send you to court!”

Haha...

“Don’t worry, you will be in court before she is.” Gu Chaoyan replied without showing any politeness.

Sending Sword One to the court? Haha, the court was not going to receive her, considering that she was Lord Huai’s guard, no matter if she had made a mistake.

Instead of speaking with the manager Gu Chaoyan came to the counter.

She opened the counter and then she brought out the money. “Come, anyone who wants compensation, bring it to me.”

Those commoners, who had been worried that this young lady would fear Mrs. Gu, came running towards her cheerfully seeing that she was not at all scared.

Some kind-hearted commoners claimed that they did not need double compensation, just the exact amount of compensation would do.

They were not people who acted unreasonably.

The garments sold from this store had been of such bad quality that they did not dare use them, otherwise they would not have come to get the money back.

There was a lot of money on the counter.

But there were quite a lot who needed the compensation, so soon the money was out.

Seeing the money running out right in front of his face, the manager kept struggling yet failed to get rid of the grip. He kept cursing Gu Chaoyan at the beginning, but Sword One found a piece of cloth to gag him later.

The incident at the garment store had caused a sensation in town.

One of the page-boys who kept Gu Chaoyan company had already run back home to report this matter.

As the page boy was done with the report, he came running back. “Miss, Madame Gu is asking for you at the mansion. She needs to have a word with you..”

The words had just been spoken when Sword Three joined the crowd too.

Gu Chaoyan had been rather busy with the compensation, and as she saw Sword Three, she summoned Sword Three and said, “I still have other matters to deal with at the Gu Mansion, please deal with the rest of the affair. Give the double payment to the commoners who are here for the compensation. I will go to Mrs. Gu if the money is out.”

Then she threw a look at the so-called Mrs. Gu’s cousin.

“Sword One, take him to the court. He has committed the crime!” Gu Chaoyan said.

“Ahhh...” The manager was gagged and failed to speak. He got extremely excited.

As the page boy saw the scene, he said, “Miss, this is Mrs. Gu’s cousin, isn’t it improper for him to go to the court?”

“Oh, so Mrs. Gu’s cousin can skip seeing the court, even if he commits the crime? Since when did the Saint Divine Land become the domain of the Gu Family?” Gu Chaoyan snapped roughly.

The manager turned pale and the page boy became silent.

“Didn’t you say that Madame Gu is asking for me? Let’s go and check what she needs.”
