He piled up his words and answered with great force.

She looked at them with some displeasure: "These shadows are all mine, what are you giving them back?"

Zhang Qingyou's eyes widened immediately. He seemed not to have expected Huo Tang to say that, let alone that Huo Tang would be so shameless.

What do you mean it's her money? It's obviously his money.

That was a full thirty thousand taels more, and she just accepted it without giving her a single cent in return.

How can this be done?
This time, he had to spend a lot of effort to get his father to give him the silver. When he asked his father for the silver, he had already guessed that since he asked for so much silver at one time, his father would probably be very angry and would not give him any silver for a long time.

So just in case, he specifically asked for tens of thousands of taels of silver.

What I am afraid of is that my father will not give me money in the future, so I have to make plans.

And what he guessed turned out to be correct. Although his father could not stand his pestering, he still made some harsh remarks.

According to his plan, after paying back Huo Tang's money, there would be some left, which would be enough for him to sustain himself for a while.

But I didn't expect such an accident to happen. I just wanted to show off in front of you, Huo, and vent my anger for Brother Gu.

But unexpectedly, before he did anything, Huo Tang snatched all the silver away.

That would have been fine, but he actually took them all and didn't keep a single one for himself.

How will I live in the future?
After a long while, he finally opened his mouth and found his voice: "Huo Tang, return the money to me. The 320,000 taels of silver are for you. I don't want them, but I still have an extra 30,000!"

At this moment, because the money was still in Huo Tang's hands, Zhang Qingyou spoke more politely and his tone was suppressed.

Huo Tang spread his hands and said, "Who told you that he owed me 320,000? The money you just gave me is not enough."

Upon hearing this, Zhang Qingyou looked at Gu Yeming in confusion. Didn’t Brother Gu tell him about 320,000 taels?

Could it be that Brother Gu remembered it wrong?
Gu Yeming frowned. "Huo Tang, what are you talking about? All those things only add up to about 320,000. The bill you prepared earlier also clearly stated this amount. Are you trying to cheat now?"

His voice was filled with suppressed anger, and he had not expected Huo Tang to do such a thing.

He thought that with her status and personality, she would never do such a thing, so he was not in a hurry just now!
But unexpectedly, Huo Tang took all the silver as if it was a matter of course.

How dare she do that in front of so many people?

Huo Tang patted his clothes, his face calm. "You took 320,000 yuan from my pharmacy, but don't forget, you took more than that from me. I didn't record it in the book before, so are you just going to pretend it didn't happen?"

Huo Tang glanced at the other person, and the contempt and disgust in his eyes were clear.

Although Huo Tang did not say it explicitly, Gu Yeming's expression changed after hearing it.

He knew what Huo Tang was referring to.

He had not been favored in the Gu family over the years, but things were better now. After he became stronger, the Gu family also paid more attention to him.

But before he had such strength, he was not taken seriously in the Gu family.

He doesn't even have many resources for cultivation, but his own cultivation requires the assistance of those rare treasures.

So I also took a lot of treasures from Huo Tang.

That receipt was something I took from Huo Tang's family's pharmacy without Huo Tang's knowledge. But outwardly, I had asked Huo Tang for things before.

Over the years, he has taken a lot of things here and there, but he has no idea how much they are worth.

It was just that when Huo Tang settled accounts with him before, he only counted the things he had taken without permission, and not the others. He thought...

But he didn't expect that he still underestimated the current Huo Tang. The current Huo Tang didn't care about anything and could do anything.

He was silent for a long time.

The other party's silence didn't mean Huo Tang wouldn't speak either. Huo Tang looked at him seriously and said, "Do I need to explain all this to Master Gu one by one?"

"Need not"

Gu Yeming quickly stopped Huo Tang.

His face was as gloomy as water.

There are so many people here. If others knew that he had asked Huo Tang for these things in private before, how would they look at him?

So he absolutely couldn't let Huo Tang continue talking, otherwise he would really have to walk with his head down in Lingdu from now on.

But he didn't expect Huo Tang to actually do this. She clearly knew...

In the past, he had no choice but to ask her for those things. If the Gu family had not supported him at all, why would he ask her for them?

She knew clearly how difficult it was for him, and she had supported him before, but now, she wanted to expose his wounds in public.

He looked at Huo Tang with disappointment in his eyes, and then quickly looked away.

He didn't say anything else to anger Huo Tang. After all, he still had something on him. If he didn't want him to tell those things, he could only take a step back.

He turned to look at Zhang Qingyou and said apologetically, "Brother Zhang, the tens of thousands I gave her, plus the money I gave her before, are all what I owe you. I will pay you back in the future."

When he said this, Gu Yeming lowered his head and felt very embarrassed.

But the only one who can help him now is Zhang Qingyou.

So even though I feel very embarrassed in my heart, I have to be thick-skinned and speak up.

Zhang Qingyou still had many doubts in his mind, but when he saw Brother Gu's embarrassed and pleading eyes, he suddenly sighed.

He didn't know the reason.

But Brother Gu said nothing and did nothing, and tacitly agreed to Huo Tang's approach. It seems that there is nothing wrong with what Huo Tang said.

He sighed and said, "Alright, alright. We'll talk about it later whether to return it or not. This matter between you and Huo Tang has finally been resolved."

But he was in a miserable situation. He didn't have a penny on him, and his father had said something harsh. How was he going to survive in the future?

At this moment, he felt extremely regretful. If he had known earlier, he should not have shown off in front of Huo Tang. He should have just returned the money to her. Otherwise, there wouldn't have been so many troubles later. Now...

Huo Tang took all the money; he wasn't left with a single penny! (End of Chapter)
