" What? What fifty taels?" Zhu Cheng was beyond stupefied, she hardly rembered anything from last night. How was it possible that she wasted fifty taels in just one night? If this was before she could have just cajoled her daddy into giving the silver taels that they have saved up to now but with how broke her family's condition was at the mont, from where the heck will she get the money? Zhu Cheng tried to suppress the panic that she was feeling in her heart and flatteringly smiled at Xiang Bei. " Mommy Xiang, I think there is so sort of mistake here, how can I spend fifty taels so randomly? After all, I am just a poor daily wage earner, no matter how drunk I am, I still wouldn't waste my hard-earned money like this. Are you sure that this bill that you are handing , is really mine?"
Xiang Bei exchanged an almost imperceptible glance with her mammy as the mammy nodded and walked out. Seeing her leave, Zhu Cheng instinctively stiffened. What was this? Were they trying to force her into giving the money now that she was rejecting them?
Maybe Xiang Bei must have read her expression because a second later she smiled and waved her hand. " Oh, co on. I might be greedy but I am still smart enough to not beat anyone in my tavern. In case the news flew out then my tavern will start to get bad publicity, you know?"
Zhu Cheng: "….." then doesn't it an, beating soone outside the tavern was fine?
Xiang Bei leaned forward and interlocked her fingers before resting her chin on them. " My mammy just went out to check whether the bill really belongs to you or not, if this bill is really not yours then you vacate without paying a damn cent since it was who made a mistake. But——" her smile took a darker and sinister turn as her eyes locked with Zhu Cheng's. " If it is yours then rember that you have to pay back even if you have to sell your skin, got it?"
Zhu Cheng hardly got a chance to breathe with ease before Xiang Bei dropped this explosive threat on her head, now Zhu Cheng could do nothing but pray to Goddess that this bill wasn't hers.
Xiang Bei watched Zhu Cheng's antics and stifled a laugh, she really liked it when these stupid won tried to fight against her. Did she really think that she was going to get out of this ss just by praying to the Goddess? She might as well lick her feet and pray to her, if her service made Xiang Bei happy she might as well let her go scout free——- Ah, no wait. Just as the thought ca to her head, she was reminded of Lang's warning the latter had warned her that she will be keeping an eye on her. If she didn't act according to the plan then Lang will beat the plan into her head until she did it properly.
A shiver crawled up her spine, seriously! Maybe it was ti to train her muscles and learn so martial arts from a master. For how long she is going to act scared whenever Lang and Yu Dong were concerned?
That's right, this was the last favour that she was going to do on those two demonic won and after this, she was going to train harder than ever! Since she couldn't leave her security on other useless won anymore——-
While Xiang Bei was thinking about taking a master class of martial arts, the door to her office was pushed open and the mammy returned with the really pretty r who was like walking ethereal beauty.
Zhu Cheng's cheeks instinctively started to heat as she laid her eyes on him. What she didn't know was that this ethereal beauty was here to deliver her death sentence along with her family's as well.
" Ah, Tian Yu, it is great that you could join us," said Xiang Bei as she patted the r's hand and then pointed at Zhu Cheng before asking. " Is this the woman who slept with you last night?"
After Zhu Cheng heard those words, she imdiately thought that her entire body was falling into an ice pit. What did Xiang Bei say? Did she sleep with this r? How was that possible? She had a husband at ho, if she was caught having an affair with a cheap r who worked in a tavern, her husband would chop her b**bs off with a butchering knife.
She secretly wished that she wasn't the one who slept with this r though he was pretty he wasn't worth it. Her husband who was at ho will never accept her infidelity. And would chase her around the village and what was more —— sleeping with this r cost fifty taels? How as that reasonable, no matter how beautiful he was, he was, in the end, a r——how can he be sold for this much price? This was plain extortion!
The r nad Tian Yu looked at Zhu Cheng and shyly nodded his head. " Yes, Mommy—— she is the one I spent the last night with!"
" You see?" Xiang Bei grinned as she turned to face Zhu Cheng again. " He says that you were the one who slept with him, now hand over the fifty taels nicely while I am still courteous with you."
" Now wait a damn second!" snapped Zhu Cheng as she stood from her chair and glared at the r who stiffly bowed his head and hid behind the mammy who covered him protectively before glaring at Zhu Cheng. " Fine, even if I slept with him, how can it amount to fifty taels? A cheap r like him who sells his body should only cost a tael or two. How can he have such an exorbitant price? Are you trying to kill by branding him with such a sky high price is that it?"
Zhu Cheng at first was really scared to offend Xiang Bei but now that she was certain that the latter was trying to bully her, she was no longer as terrified as she was before.
Humph, dare to extort , see how I teach you
