Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability Chapter 2972: A Misunderstanding, Really a Misunderstanding
Previously on Raising My Children With My Personal Spatial Ability...
Even with their positions in White Lion City, several folks still attempted to push through forcefully, yet they got driven off by the Paper Person standing watch at the entrance.
Right then, Qian Jiyun along with his four companions stepped out and caught sight of the Le Family steward getting hurled backward.
This steward had been dispatched by the Family Head after learning that the barren plot they'd sold had abruptly turned into an estate, prompting him to come probe around.
Depending on the notion that their Le Family had handled the sale of this land, he sought to barge inside and discover the situation.
He figured that no matter how haughty the two gate guards acted, they wouldn't block them entirely. In the worst case, they'd storm in and offer apologies to the estate's master afterward.
Yet who could foresee that their arrogance knew no bounds.
Without even trading a handful of words, much less crossing the doorway, they were blasted flying right back out.
As a steward who'd served his whole life, he'd never faced such disgrace except before the Family Head. It left him seething with rage.
Brushing off the ache in his body, he sprang up from the dirt, jabbing a finger at the Paper Person's face, "You filthy mutt, do you realize who I am, I am..."
Before he could spit out his status, his eyes landed on a known face, stunning him so much that he gulped down every foul word he'd prepared.
"Who are you, why stop now?"
The Young City Lord Bai squinted his eyes at the Le Family steward—a figure he knew all too well—who, thanks to his service to the Le Family, let even his kin run wild and break rules in White Lion City.
He recalled having taught this man a lesson once already, but here he was, still strutting with such boldness.
Clearly, the Le Family was heading straight for downfall.
Like master, like servant; this steward's overbearing ways outside must stem from a superior who permits it.
However, even the stewards from the premier family and the second-ranked clan don't carry themselves with such unchecked tyranny.
"I... Young City Lord Bai, what brings you here?"
A sense of dread crept over him—could the estate's owner be connected to Young City Lord Bai somehow?
But if so, why shell out a fortune to purchase the land from their Family Head? With Young City Lord Bai's influence, they could've negotiated any deal.
In truth, factoring in the City Lord Residence, the Family Head might have handed over the land without charge.
"This young master is here to check out a friend's new estate purchase, got an issue with that?" Young City Lord Bai shot back coldly at the steward, his brows knitting slightly to reveal his clear disdain for the man.
"But Steward Yue, this young master wonders why you're trying to muscle into another's property. Do you assume my friend lacks support in White Lion City and is easy to push around?"
"Misunderstanding, it's all a misunderstanding."
Steward Yue quickly declared his innocence in a booming tone.
"Young City Lord Bai, this is genuinely a mix-up. I spotted an estate popping up out of nowhere and worried that some folks aimed to unlawfully claim the land our Le Family had just sold, so I planned to step inside and verify."
He'd grown accustomed to his domineering habits, never expecting to meet such fierce resistance this day.
"I only now understand that the buyer of this land is linked to Young City Lord Bai— we've truly erred in challenging allies, failing to spot kin..."
