Becoming the Villainess: I Dominate the Cultivation Realm with My Wok! Chapter 422

At this mont, his sharpness was not solely because of the servant’s negligence in front of him; it more or less had sothing to do with Chen Muxue.

Although he always considered himself a rchant, he was, after all, a proud rchant. The title of Imperial rchant and the Hidden Dragon Fan bestowed by the emperor earned him respect among ordinary people, and his remarkable potential for cultivation and his youthful accomplishnts made him a standout among cultivators.

But in front of Chen Muxue, he seed like he was nothing. Even at their first eting, when Chen Muxue was so poor... Of course, she’s not much different now. At that ti, her cultivation was also much lower than his own, yet she showed him no respect at all. It was more like Zhang San eting Li Si on the street, as if everyone was just ordinary.

And now, within his own Huo Family, she was showing so impatience. Is this how Huo Lian appears in her eyes? Perhaps even a bit lowly?

Huo Lian knew that Chen Muxue’s attitude towards him wasn’t the kind that looked down on rchants by nature. He really wanted to know which part of him Chen Muxue looked down upon.

At this mont, all the confusion and inexplicable agitation suddenly burst out. Huo Lian was very impatient with the servant who heard his command yet remained motionless: "What, can’t I even command you?"

"No... No..." It was the first ti that the servant saw the young master so angry, and his legs suddenly beca a bit weak; he couldn’t even speak smoothly, "It’s just... it’s just..."

"Just what?!" This sudden stamring made Huo Lian even more irritable.

"It’s just that ten thousand taels isn’t a small amount, Young Master. You need to give so token, otherwise how can the accounts room give it to ?" The servant, after being shouted at, finally spoke clearly, getting speedier than most rappers.

"Pff..." Chen Muxue couldn’t help but laugh, but she quickly coughed lightly to indicate she knew nothing.

Not only did Huo Lian’s smile freeze on his face, but he also felt like his dignity was about to collapse. He pretended to be calm as he took off the jade pendant from his waist and handed it to the servant. The servant took it and quickly ran away, afraid to stay before Huo Lian even for a mont longer, as if he feared being devoured by him.

Little Hua looked at Huo Lian, then at the snickering Chen Muxue, and tugged at her sleeve: "I don’t like Brother Huo Lian anymore; let’s bring Changgui back, he shouldn’t study here anymore."

Before Chen Muxue could speak, Changgui loudly said, "No!"

As all eyes looked at him, he paused, slightly toned down his voice, but still said loudly, "I still want to study at the Huo Family Academy."

Huo Lian finally alleviated so of his embarrassnt and, upon hearing this, patted Changgui’s head.

A flicker of dark light passed through Changgui’s eyes, unnoticed by anyone.

The three children looked at Changgui with disappointnt; Chen Muxue did not imdiately criticize him, but instead asked, "Why?"

"I... I like studying here, I’ve made many friends..." When talking about friends, Changgui felt a bit guilty.

There weren’t many, but there was one true friend... Most other friends were made because they knew he was acquainted with Uncle Huo Lian.

However, this comfortable environnt of being noticed and taken care of made Changgui feel especially at ease here. Although the als were not as good as Sect Leader’s cooking, they were still tasty. As for clothing, food, housing, and transportation, only the aspect of food was sowhat lacking, everything else was excellent. He had never experienced such a life...

The life Huo Lian arranged for Changgui was akin to that of Huo Family’s young masters.
