A five-year-old boy, I can't even afford to hire him? What a great joke!
"Are you sure you want me to name a price?" Gu Ruoyun raised her brow and her clear and cold eyes held a forced smile.
"That's right!" Lu Chen laughed icily, "As long as you can name a price, I can certainly afford it!"
"Alright!"
Gu Ruoyun smiled gently. Her fingers stroked the teacup on the table and the smile on her lips was indecipherable.
"I'll exchange your life for one second of his time!"
What she meant was that Lu Chen's life could only be exchanged for one second of Xiao Zixie's time.
"What did you say?"
Lu Chen's expression turned gloomy and a fiery rage rose from his body. He stared coldly at Gu Ruoyun, "My life is priceless yet you insult me for only being able to exchange it for one second of his time. Don't you think that you're being too rude?"
Xiao Zixie rolled his eyes and swept his gaze towards Lu Chen with a sneer.
Not to mention exchanging one of his lives for one second of hers, even if it was ten lives, he wouldn't trade it!
"I'm going back on my word." Gu Ruoyun smiled calmly, "Now, I want the lives of everyone in the Xia family! Give me their lives and I'll give him to you for one second! "
Lu Chen's expression grew increasingly ugly. He clenched his fists tightly and could only stop the fiery rage from spilling from his heart.
"Miss, he's only a five-year-old child, he's only worth twenty gold pieces at most! I'm willing to give you twenty gold pieces if you sell him to me for one month! I'll return him to you after one month. Of course, during this one month, he will belong completely to the Xia family. You're not allowed to see him! "
Gu Ruoyun laughed icily, "Don't you understand what I'm saying?"
"What?"
"I've told you, the lives of everyone in the Xia family can only be exchanged for one second of his time! As for one month... Do you really think that you can afford that price? "
Instantly, the entire teahouse fell silent.
At the sight of Lu Chen's extremely ugly expression, a kind-hearted person could not help but advise, "Miss, Lu Chen is the Xia family's future son-in-law and Supreme Jin is protecting the Xia family. Since the Second Lady of the Xia family has taken a liking to your brother, you should temporarily sell him to her for one month."
"Don't worry, the Second Lady of the Xia Family is a good person. She won't do anything to your brother. After all, it's only for a month. Why would you want to offend the Xia Family?"
The noise echoed in his ears, causing Xiao Zixie to grow more and more impatient. His charming and adorable little face turned extremely gloomy. However, at this moment, Xia Chuling still did not know what was good for her and reached out to grab Xiao Zixie. This caused him to completely explode.
"Scram!"
Bang!
Xiao Zixie waved his little hand and slapped Xia Chuling fiercely across the face. This slap sent her body flying out of the room and she slammed into the door frame. The handprint on her fair little face was so clear that it could be seen clearly.
Xia Chuling was in a daze. The others had yet to return to their senses either. Only when she felt the burning pain on her face did she burst into tears.
"I'm going to go back and tell my father and mother that you hit me. I'm going to ask my father to avenge me. Wah!"
Lu Chen clenched his fists tightly and his face turned ashen. After all, I was the one who had brought Xia Chuling out. If I were to let her suffer any grievances here, how would I explain myself to the Master of the Xia family when I return?
"Miss, your brother had casually attacked someone. Aren't you going to give us an explanation?"
"An explanation?" Gu Ruoyun laughed icily, "What explanation? He was merely defending himself! If someone had not tried to drag him away by force, he would not have attacked them! "
