Chapter 117 - Miserable
Xiao Jiuyuan heard Yun Qianyu’s words and raised his head to look at her. Although the woman’s face was covered with red scars and looked terrible, her strong personality did not seem to be affected; on the contrary, she stood upright and proud.
How many women in this world were like this?
Xiao Jiuyuan suddenly opened his mouth, “Alright, tomorrow you can bid for an Essence Cleansing pill.”
Xiao Jiuyuan’s words stunned Yun Qianyu. She had prepared a whole speech for him, but unexpectedly, Xiao Jiuyuan had agreed to her request.
That was why she thought that this guy’s temperament was very strange.
Too lazy to think more into Xiao Jiuyuan’s capricious temperament, Yun Qianyu just wanted to get the money as soon as possible, lest he changes his mind and changes the offer again.
“Silver certificate.”
Xiao Jiuyuan looked at her outreached hand and ignored it. Instead, he said coldly, “Tomorrow this Prince will go to Xuantian Auction House too. When you see the item, you just need to bid for it; I will take care of the payment. Even if you got the money now, do you know how much the item will auction for?”
Yun Qianyu’s face darkened and she really wanted to punch Xiao Jiuyuan’s face. ‘If I don’t know how much it would auction for, can’t you just give me more money?’
She had more than seven hundred thousand Liang with Xiao Jiuyuan. Even if he gave her two hundred thousand Liang, it would be more than enough for the Essence Cleansing pill. After all, in this world, two hundred thousand Liang was still a lot of money.
“Your Highness, I wouldn’t want to bother you with this, you can just give me more money.”
“Oh? Are you rejecting this Prince’s offer?”
Xiao Jiuyuan narrowed his eyes and stared at Yun Qianyu’s face.
Afraid Xiao Jiuyuan would become angry again, Yun Qianyu quickly steered the conversation away, “Of course I’m not going against you. It’s just that I would feel bad if I troubled your Highness.”
Yun Qianyu said that with a serious expression as if she really didn’t want to trouble Xiao Jiuyuan. Unfortunately, Xiao Jiuyuan didn’t believe her at all.
Not expecting Yun Qianyu to ask for silver certificates, Xiao Jiuyuan became reluctant to just give her the money directly.
“I don’t mind the trouble, I’m just afraid of facing an ugly face.”
Xiao Jiuyuan felt somewhat impressed with himself as he had been able to face the ugly face of this woman for such a long time. In the past, if anyone showed up in front of him with this face, he would have slapped the woman to death.
But even so, he didn’t want to see that face anymore.
“You can leave now. Tomorrow just go to the auction house.” Xiao Jiuyuan said with a flat voice.
Even though Yun Qianyu was reluctant, there was no other way. Xiao Jiuyuan had always been dictatorial with many things. When he made up his mind, it would be nearly impossible to change his mind.
‘Hopefully Xiao Jiuyuan doesn’t change his mind or not show up at the auction house tomorrow. If he doesn’t show up, I will never believe this man’s words ever again.’
Yun Qianyu said goodbye to Xiao Jiuyuan and then went out. After coming out, she noticed that her legs were already very weak. In order to ask Xiao Jiuyuan for money, she had endured hunger for the whole day. Now she was so hungry that she felt dizzy and could barely walk.
Yun Qianyu felt sad when she thought about the fact that she didn’t even get a dime for her suffering.
