Crossing Over to Yamada Love

“Sister, since you don’t agree, I won’t force you. It’s my fault for not being able to accept this. I apologize for disturbing you today.” After saying this, Sixth Young Master Wang Mingfang gave Mo Lan a long hug.

A glint flashed in Mo Lan's eyes. The sudden change in Sixth Young Master Wang Mingfang's attitude must mean something. What was his purpose? Mo Lan became wary. However, she politely said, "Brother, you're too kind. I can't accept that."

Wang Mingfang looked around, somewhat embarrassed, and said, "Sister, I apologize to you here. I have something I want to say to you, concerning your affairs in the manor. Please, sister, let's speak in private."

Mo Lan pretended not to see the difficulty on his face and said, "Brother, please speak. I am all ears."

The sixth young master opened his mouth slightly, giving Mo Lan a rather troubled look. Mo Lan frowned. Was he planning to spend time alone with her? No, she wasn't that foolish. In the capital, in the Marquis's mansion, the Second Madam constantly nagged about her reputation; she didn't want it ruined.

Mo Lan smiled and looked at the servants on both sides, saying, "Brother, just say what you need to say. Everyone here is someone I can trust. As for Steward Xia, Granny Cui, and the maids and servants around the Second Madam, they should all be trustworthy as well, right, brother?"

Wang Mingfang's eyes flashed when he heard her words. She refused to be alone with him, thinking that he couldn't do anything to her. This time, he would make her lose her reputation openly and see if she could still stand up to him.

“Yes, what my sister says is true, they are all trustworthy. Then I hope my sister won’t blame me for being rash. It’s like this…” Sixth Young Master Wang Mingfang said softly as he walked towards Mo Lan.

Mo Lan maintained a smile on her face, as if she was listening attentively to him, but inwardly she sneered. Looking at him like this, even a ghost wouldn't believe that he wasn't hiding something.

What exactly is he planning? A thought flashed through Mo Lan's mind. In wealthy families, the maids who come with a bride price are usually given to the groom as his concubines. Xia Yu is her maid, so could it be that he wants to get closer to her and have some physical contact with her? He thinks that if he does this, she will marry him for the sake of her reputation, and then Xia Yu will be unable to escape. What a clever plan.

What should she do? If he hugged her, she should give him a good knee slap to make him ache at the thought of a woman's manhood, but she'd already used that trick twice. Should she try something different? Thinking this, Mo Lan's smile grew even sweeter, her bright eyes sparkling, but her feet hooked onto the brocade stool in front of the table.

As the sixth young master spoke, he approached, his eyes fixed on nothing but the growing closeness between himself and Mo Lan, and the increasingly sweet smile on Mo Lan's face. He felt a surge of lust rising within him. If only there were no one around, he might be able to pounce on this girl; her smile was so alluring.

For a moment, Sixth Young Master Wang Mingfang's mind went blank. He knew his wish was about to be fulfilled. He was so close, the distance was enough, he would soon be able to claim her. With her warm and soft body in his arms, he felt the blood rushing to his head. He stretched out his arms and embraced Mo Lan, but what was that under his feet? His calf suddenly hurt, and he lost his balance and fell forward.

In the moment of his pounce, Sixth Young Master Wang Ming could only see Mo Lan. Mo Lan was right in front of him. If he could pounce on her, his efforts wouldn't have been in vain. It would be even better if he could pin her down; then she wouldn't be able to escape. He could also steal a kiss from her when no one else was around.

Seeing the smug gleam in the eyes of the Sixth Young Master Wang Ming, Mo Lan smiled at him, then swiftly dodged away from him. Amidst her and the others' gasps, the Sixth Young Master fell to the ground. As he fell, one side of his body bumped into the table, causing it to tilt. Although the table didn't fall over, the teacup on it rolled off and shattered on the floor.

Wang Mingfang screamed in pain; he had really taken a hard fall, his body slamming into the hard ground. His lip was also cut, from being bitten by teeth when he fell. He cried out in pain. At that moment, all he knew was the pain; he couldn't think about any of those fancy things anymore.

Steward Xia, Granny Cui, and the second madam's maidservants rushed forward to help Wang Mingfang up. Granny Cui saw that there was blood in his mouth, so she quickly took out a handkerchief to cover it.

Wang Mingfang angrily removed the handkerchief, glanced at the blood on it, and his eyes flashed with anger. He shouted, "You, you actually hurt me!" The fall had caused him not only pain but also utter humiliation. Now, he felt nothing but hatred towards Mo Lan; the things that had previously aroused his bloodlust were long forgotten. His only thought was to exact revenge on Mo Lan and regain his dignity.

"Brother, what are you saying! How did Lanlan harm you? It was you who tripped over the stool because you didn't watch your step when you came over. Is this Lanlan's fault?" Mo Lan answered innocently with her big eyes wide open.

"You, you, if it weren't for you, how could the stool have ended up at my feet for no reason? You must have done this to me." The Sixth Young Master was at a loss for words. He hadn't even seen when the stool had appeared, but he was certain that Mo Lan had done it to him.

“Brother, these stools have always been here. There must be several stools in front of each table. You must know that. You just didn’t see them clearly. How can you blame it on Lanlan!” Mo Lan’s face flashed with anger, as if she had been wronged.

Hearing her say that, Sixth Young Master Wang Mingfang was really unsure whether the stool was there originally or whether Mo Lan had deliberately placed it there. Seeing that he didn't speak, Granny Liu, who was supporting him, looked at Mo Lan with a sinister gaze and said, "You are just a cousin who is staying with the Marquis. Sixth Young Master is a direct descendant of the Marquis. Now that you have hurt the young master, Madam will definitely not let you off."

Before Mo Lan could speak, a voice rang out: "Oh? Why won't you let my granddaughter go? Tell me."

As soon as she finished speaking, Wang Shi, supported by Xia Yu, came out from the inner room.

Sixth Young Master Wang Mingfang and the others were stunned. The old lady came out at just the right time. She had just overheard someone threatening her granddaughter. What were people going to say about her coming out?

"You wretched girl, get over here and kowtow to Sixth Young Master to apologize! It's all your fault! If it weren't for you, how could Sixth Young Master have been injured? You slut, you jinx!" Just as everyone was stunned by Wang Shi's appearance, Granny Cui had already started cursing at Xia Yu.

Mo Lan was stunned by her cursing. This was something she had never expected. Weren't the servants in the Marquis's mansion all taught manners? How was this old woman, who was standing with her hands on her hips cursing angrily, any different from the shrewish women in their village?

Xia Yu was clearly used to being scolded by Granny Cui, and her face paled slightly. She ignored Granny Cui and glanced at Mo Lan. She noticed that Mo Lan's expression was calm, but her eyes were cold, and she understood what Mo Lan meant. She stood behind Wang Shi with her hands at her sides, behaving like a head maid.

Seeing Xia Yu standing behind Wang Shi and ignoring her, Granny Cui blushed with anger and complained to her husband, "Look at her! It's all your fault for spoiling her. She's so spoiled that she doesn't even greet her parents properly. She treats everything I say as if it were nothing. Does she even respect me as her mother? It's all your fault for raising such a disobedient and unfilial little wretch."

Steward Xia's face darkened considerably. He glared at her and first said to Granny Cui, "You're in front of the Sixth Young Master, don't keep calling her a slut. If she were to become the Sixth Young Master's woman, it wouldn't sound good if word got out." After speaking to his wife, he shouted at Xia Yu, "What are you standing there for! Didn't you hear what your mother said? Get over here and kneel down!"

Xia Yu trembled at his shout. Her father was angry. She was a little scared, but she felt more desolate. After her mother passed away, her father never treated her well. His stepmother treated her even worse and didn't treat her like a daughter.

Xia Yu glanced at Mo Lan again. The young lady remained composed, but the light in her eyes had grown colder. Suddenly, she felt a surge of courage. She straightened up and said loudly, "Sixth Young Master, Father, Mother, you have not yet paid your respects to the Old Aunt and the young lady. The Old Aunt and the young lady are the mistresses of Lan Courtyard. After you have paid your respects, I will naturally do so."

Her words caused the Sixth Young Master Wang Mingfang and the others to widen their eyes. Because Wang Mingfang had been humiliated and was in pain, he held his breath and did not greet her when she came out. As for Steward Xia, Granny Cui, Granny Liu, and the maid, since the Sixth Young Master did not greet her, they, who were supporting him, naturally had no reason not to greet him either.

Now that Xia Yu has spoken up, it would be unreasonable for them not to be polite.

Wang Mingfang and the others suppressed their anger and bowed to Wang Shi. Wang Shi did not tell them to get up, but they got up on their own.

"This servant greets Sixth Young Master. May Sixth Young Master be well." Xia Yu bowed to the Sixth Young Master, stood up, and then bowed to her parents.

"You brat, your father told you to kneel down, are you deaf? Get over here and kneel down right now!" Granny Cui shouted again when she saw that Xia Yu hadn't knelt down.

"Madam Bai, Xia Yu, you know the proper etiquette in this household, right? Slap them!" Madam Wang, who had been sitting in her chair with a gloomy face, put down her teacup, her eyes flashing coldly as she gave the two orders.

"Yes. This old servant obeys." Granny Bai and Xia Yu each responded, then looked at each other, no longer hesitating, and walked together towards the Sixth Young Master and the others.

"You brat, I dare you! I'm your mother! If you dare lay a hand on me, see how I deal with you when we get back!" Granny Cui shouted disdainfully. She was always the one beating and scolding this girl; even if the girl had ten times the courage, she wouldn't dare touch her. The Second Madam's maids and servants were also watching the spectacle from the sidelines.

Slap! Slap! Slap! The sound of slaps rang out. Granny Bai was slapping Granny Cui, while Xia Yu was slapping Granny Liu, who served the Second Madam, and her head maid. Neither of them held back, and they started hitting each other hard.
