The Anarchic Consort (Book 1)

366-370

Helian Guang Yao was greatly irritated at the sight of her behavior. He was especially embarrassed when his wife enthusiastically greeted the others.

When he married Su Yan Mo into his family, some people in the Capital's social circle looked down on him.

It was only when his influence gradually grew that people slowly forgot about it.

No matter how great the Su family was, they were still incomparable to the Helian family as they were a genuine aristocratic family.

Primitively, time was necessary to nurture some qualities.

He used to think that Su Yan Mo was the type of woman that a man needed the most. She was gentle and understood how to react according to circumstances.

However, she was still a mere maiden from a small family.

These maidens from a weaker background were indeed pitiful when they were younger.

However, Helian Guang Yao could no longer tolerate it when she still behaved in this manner.

This would remind him of his affectionate little mistress. Compared to her, he felt that Su Yan Mo was increasingly needy.

Su Yan Mo did not want to start a fight with Helian Guang Yao outside. She absolutely forbid herself from arguing openly with a man.

She unconsciously softened her voice, "Old Master, I was merely very worried for Jiao Er."

"Did I not advise you to wait? It won't be too late to do all this when I truly acquire the right to inherit the Helian family," Helian Guang Yao's attitude was coated with annoyance.

Naturally, Su Yan Mo was not pleased.

Helian Guang Yao glanced at her again and added, "You should go back and mull over it. Come out when you have thought things through." As he said this, he called for his servants, "Send madam back."

"Yes, sir," the servant lowered his gaze and walked over to Su Yan Mo respectfully, "Let us return first, Madam."

Su Yan Mo stared at Helian Guang Yao's back, a venomous look darted through her lowered gaze as she clenched her fists. However, she had no choice but to follow the servant and return.

Helian Jiao Er was waiting in the room when she saw the gloomy look on Su Yan Mo, but she was not sure what had happened.

When she mentioned the name 'Helian Wei Wei', Su Yan Mo flung the cup of tea in her hand and shouted, "Don't bring up that little whore's name!" It was all that whore's fault that the three of them were forced into this position! She wanted nothing but to strangle that whore to death!

"Listen to me, Mother. This time we can make sure that this little whore can never recover..." Helian Jiao Er moved nearer to Su Yan Mo and told her all the information she had.

Su Yan Mo's eyes brightened upon hearing it. She pondered for a while and ordered the previous servant, "Go to the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs and bring Minister Li Meng here."

Li Meng was a distant relative of the Su family in Jiang Nan.

He was transferred to the capital recently. The Su family gave him a lot of support in his work as well as advancement in his career.

Prime Minister Su placed him in the Ministry of Official Personnel Affairs so that he would one day be useful to the Su family.

Obviously, Su Yan Mo would not let this chance slip away. When it was time for her pawns to make a move, she would command them accordingly.
