Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios
No matter how stupid Wu Hao was, he already knew that ng Weiwei did not have him in her heart.
If she had any genuine love for him, she would not have insisted on staying by Bai Wutong’s side.
He smiled bitterly and looked at the gentle and kind Bai Wutong with sympathy.
She had kindly bought ng Weiwei, but she did not know that ng Weiwei had ulterior motives.
Wu Hao stared at Bai Wutong for so long. Just as Chu Tianbao was about to explode, Wu Hao retracted his gaze in ti.
After much hesitation, Wu Hao said to ng Weiwei, “Weiwei, co with . It’s not appropriate for you to stay here. Co back with . I won’t force you to marry anymore.”
“I’ll give you all 100 taels of silver, but you can’t stay here.”
The love in his eyes had been replaced by forbearance. He repeatedly emphasized that ng Weiwei could not stay here. He was clearly trying to remind Bai Wutong.
The corners of Bai Wutong’s mouth curled up. He was not hopeless.
When Wu Hao’s words landed in ng Weiwei’s ears, she felt that he was the one being stubborn and insisted on ruining her plans.
Anger rose in her beautiful eyes. “I said I won’t go back with you!!!”
A huge hole was torn in Wu Hao’s heart, as if he was getting to know ng Weiwei for the first ti.
Looking at the two of them confronting each other, Bai Wutong narrowed her eyes and assured gently, “He’s so good to you. Are you really unwilling to leave?”
ng Weiwei glanced at Chu Tianbao and said firmly, “I’m grateful to him, but I’m already Madam’s servant. I don’t want to continue to owe him in the future and make things difficult for him between Uncle and . In that case, I might as well rely on my own ability to earn a living.”
Bai Wutong clicked her tongue in her heart. What a dignified and pretentious lady. Wu Hao had done so much for her, but it had beco his fault.
Bai Wutong raised her eyebrows, her gaze becoming sharp. “Forget it. I won’t force you. If she wants to be loyal to , then be loyal!”
ng Weiwei breathed a sigh of relief, as if it was such a blessing to stay as a servant.
Wu Hao’s heart ached. Before he left, he warned ng Weiwei, “You will get retribution, you should beware!’
This was his last piece of advice to ng Weiwei, and also his last warning to Bai Wutong.
ng Weiwei clearly heard it and looked nervously at Bai Wutong.
Realizing that Bai Wutong’s expression was unchanged, she heaved a sigh of relief.
Right, how could soone as stupid as her understand what Wu Hao ant?
She stole another glance at Chu Tianbao, hoping that Wu Hao would never bother her again.
Chu Tianbao frowned unhappily. Bai Wutong squeezed his palm to comfort him.
ng Weiwei followed behind them and saw their intimate actions. Jealousy burned in her heart.
She reminded herself not to be overly anxious. She had to stabilize Bai Wutong and gain her trust first. It would be best if Bai Wutong took the initiative to offer her to Chu Tianbao so that he would accept her and no longer dislike her.
ng Weiwei was secretly making plans when she suddenly slled an alluring fragrance. Sheng Huaixuan had already ordered soone to roast the two hares. In the pot beside him, milky white fish soup was also bubbling. They were just waiting for Bai Wutong and Chu Tianbao to co over and eat.
She secretly swallowed her saliva. As the personal maidservant of Bai Wutong, she should be able to eat sothing as well.
In addition to the hare and fish soup, the servants also set up a dining table with many side dishes that looked extrely appetizing.
However, the two of them were in no hurry to sit down and eat. Instead, they looked at Qingfeng. “Have you found any buyers?”
Qingfeng nodded. “There were ten.”
Bai Wutong nodded, her tone leisurely. “Then bring them up.”
ng Weiwei stole a curious glance and t the cold gaze of Bai Wutong. Her heart skipped a beat. Why did Bai Wutong suddenly seem to have beco a different person?
Her cold and oppressive aura was exactly the sa as Chu Tianbao’s.
She consoled herself that she might have been mistaken.
Looking up again, she found the faint mocking smile on Bai Wutong’s lips. The surprise in her heart imdiately stirred.
What was going on? Even if Bai Wutong had lost her mory, she shouldn’t have such an uncovered personality.
Or perhaps Wu Hao’s words before he left made her realize and she beca jealous, so she wanted to deal with her?
Just as ng Weiwei was feeling uneasy, the dark guards brought the people up.
There were ten n, all in burlap clothes, each more miserably-looking than the last.
The sll all over them made ng Weiwei frown. She did not understand why Bai Wutong had summoned these lowly people in front of her.
Unexpectedly, what Bai Wutong said the next second was like a bolt from the blue that cut her in half.
“Her starting price is five taels of silver. The highest bidder will get it.”
ng Weiwei widened her eyes in disbelief. Before she could react, the ten n saw ng Weiwei’s beautiful appearance and figure and hurriedly bid.
“Five taels!’
“I’ll pay six taels!” “I’ll pay seven taels!”
“I’ll pay eight taels!”
ng Weiwei finally reacted and questioned in fear, “Madam Bai, why are you doing this to ?’
Bai Wutong raised her eyebrows. “Haven’t I treated you well enough? You said that your mother was seriously ill and asked to buy you. I bought you readily.”
‘When your fiance ca looking for you, I gave him another 100 taels so that you could be a loving couple. In the end, you were unwilling and insisted on staying.”
“I’m in urgent need of money now. I found a man for you to entrust your life, but you refused no matter what. You even questioned like I’ve let you down. Could it be that you had ulterior motives for staying by my side from the beginning?”
It had only been less than an hour since ng Weiwei beca Bai Wutong’s servant. There was still a sumptuous al on the table. How could she have fallen to the point where she had to sell her to survive?
ng Weiwei clenched her fists slightly and t the unfathomable eyes of Bai Wutong. At this mont, she understood that she had been sched against by Bai Wutong from the beginning.
Bai Wutong had long known what she was thinking. She had done it on purpose, like she was toying with a clown and deliberately humiliating her.
ng Weiwei’s gaze landed on the boorish n. She was shocked, regretful, and afraid. She shouted at Bai Wutong, “Bai Wutong, you’re just jealous of and afraid that I’ll replace you!’
Then, she shouted at Chu Tianbao, “Other than her face, how is a sinister and vicious woman like her worthy of your attention! ”
Chu Tianbao’s suppressed anger instantly exploded. The mont he raised his hand, ng Weiwei flew out like a teor.
She happened to hit a small tree. With a crack, the small tree broke, and ng Weiwei fell to the ground.
This was the second ti Chu Tianbao had attacked her. ng Weiwei’s eyes widened in anger. Before she could get up, her eyes rolled back and she fainted agam.
When the n who had been fighting to bid saw ng Weiwei faint, they said in panic, “She’s dead?’
Qingfeng pulled ng Weiwei up. “Alive.”
The n looked at each other. ng Weiwei had fainted so easily, so she would not be useful after buying her back. Many people gave up on buying her and turned to walk away.
Only a crippled one-eyed man rolled his eyes. “She’s already in this state. Are you selling her for five taels of silver?”
Chu Tianbao said in disgust, “Get lost with her.’
Seeing his evasive reaction, Bai Wutong chuckled and looked at the unconscious ng Weiwei.
She had given her a chance, but ng Weiwei did not take it. She could not bla anyone.
The crippled one-eyed man imdiately took out five taels of silver and threw them to Qingfeng. He carried the unconscious ng Weiwei and left excitedly..
