The threat indeed had an impact. Mrs. Ye Sr. hesitated, recalling how Ye Nanshen had retaliated when provoked in the past, which made her scalp tingle.
However, as Mrs. Ye Sr. wavered, a woman who had been silent until now spoke up. "The Buddha statue symbolizes good fortune. Its breakage is an ominous sign, especially after Mrs. Ye Sr.'s months of devout worship in the mountains."
The woman's voice was gentle, her words measured. Rong Qi looked up to see the woman across from her nodding with a gentle smile. If not for her previous incendiary remarks, anyone might be fooled by her seemingly kind exterior.
As expected, Mrs. Ye Sr.'s hesitation vanished, and she barked, "What are you waiting for? Tie up this woman and throw her out!"
Meng Fu and several male servants approached Mrs. Hong.
Rong Qi's gaze turned icy and warned, "I dare anyone to lay a hand on her."
