Of course, Gu Ruoyun was unaware of the events that had transpired in the Hundred Herb Hall. At this moment, in the Xia Family home, she had just reached the front courtyard when she was blocked by a group of people.
The leader of the group was a man dressed in embroidered robes. He smiled coldly as he sized up the young girl in front of him. His lips curled into a mocking smile and he raised his chin as if she was only fit to look up to him.
"You're Gu Ruoyun? I don't think you're much. Rumors say that you've subdued the Azure Dragon and the White Tiger. But why would such noble Divine Beasts serve a merchant who reeks of money? Haha, you must have sent people to spread these rumors so that the world would worship you. I, Xia Ying, have never seen such a shameless woman! "
That's right, from what I can see, this woman could not possibly possess a Divine Beast! She must be deliberately mystifying things so that the world would believe that even a Divine Beast would be loyal to her.
I really don't understand why the Master would bring such a shameless woman back to the Xia Family home.
"Get out of the way!"
Gu Ruoyun frowned and replied calmly.
"Haha, if you want us to get out of the way, then you'll have to defeat us!" The man in embroidered robes smiled coldly as he sized up Gu Ruoyun, "A merchant will always be a merchant. Even if the Hundred Herb Hall is powerful, it cannot change a merchant's nature! If you were to compare us, I believe that the Divine Beast would choose me! As long as it's not blind! However, your face is not bad. Why don't you become this young master's concubine? I'll eat a loss and take you in, hahaha! "
The man in embroidered robes burst into laughter and the people behind him followed suit.
"Gu Ruoyun, our Master is the number one in the Xia Family's side branch! His talents are no less than those in the direct line of descent. If you were to follow our Master, it would be much better than you running all over the place. "
"That's right, a woman should act like a woman! Supporting your husband and educating your children is what you should do. Otherwise, forget about marrying a woman like you, he wouldn't even want her as a concubine! It's a good thing that our Master is kind and is willing to take you in. Otherwise, you'll never be able to find a man for the rest of your life, haha! "
"That's right, since you're going to become our young master's concubine, then all of your belongings will also belong to our young master. Don't forget to use your Hundred Herb Hall as a dowry. Although the stench of money is a little strong, our young master will still reluctantly accept it."
The crowd burst into laughter. It was as if Gu Ruoyun had insisted on marrying their young master, and Hundred Herb Hall was already in their pocket.
Hearing these words, Gu Ruoyun did not get angry. She smiled and slowly walked towards the man in embroidered robes at the front: "You want my Hundred Herb Hall? That … depends on whether you have the ability to take it. "
The expression of the man in embroidered clothes changed, and he sneered, "You really refuse a toast only to drink a forfeit! If you're not willing to hand over your Hundred Herb Hall today, then don't even think of leaving this place. "
"Oh?" Gu Ruoyun raised her brows and smiled, "Since you're so willing to be used by others, why wouldn't I agree? If I don't agree, wouldn't it be a waste of your words? "
At this moment, the expression of the man in embroidered clothes turned increasingly ugly.
She actually knew that he had said so much to force her to make the first move. If she were to make a move against a disciple of the Xia Family in the Xia Family home, the usually protective Master would never let this woman off.
Furthermore, she also knew that the Second Master had sent them here!
PS: My keyboard broke yesterday, so I went to the internet cafe. In the end, the internet cafe was too noisy, so I couldn't write anything. I've only started writing now. I've written a chapter and posted it, then I'll post it when I return from the shop.
