Chapter 392 It’s her!
Chapter 392 It’s her!
"It really is you, Huo Tian."
Mo Jiuwei looked at the familiar face before her, not at all surprised by his identity—
It was Huo Tian, the mysterious man they met in the secret realm who was searching for someone.
When Mo Jiuwei met him, she sensed that he was highly skilled and his identity was certainly extraordinary.
Now that I know he was the legendary master of the Wangliu River, I feel that this is how it should be.
Upon hearing Mo Jiuwei call him by his name, Bai Wei, the steward, shifted slightly, as if he wanted to correct her.
But when he unexpectedly saw that his master was quite calm and showed no anger, the words he was about to say remained unspoken.
He was quite surprised: When did his master meet this little girl?
Most importantly, the little girl was not afraid of her master at all, and the master did not mind her "rudeness" at all.
That's really rare.
Bai Wei knew that although his master was handsome and looked like a harmless and upright young master, he was actually indifferent and cold-blooded, didn't care about many people and things, and even found it annoying when those people approached him.
Let alone a child, even if an infant were placed in front of him, he wouldn't bother to look at it more than twice, let alone show any tolerance or indulgence.
Zhu Hong, who had just followed in and was still heartbroken over the can of tea, slightly widened his eyes.
Mo Jiuwei actually dared to address the Flow Master by his full name!
"Tell me, what just happened?"
Huo Tian glanced at Zhu Hong indifferently and asked.
Just as Zhu Hong was about to speak, Mo Jiuwei preemptively told him what had happened—
"I came to Manager Zhu to buy the Pot Neck Stone and the Night Can Kui. I heard that you have to bring a gift when you ask someone for a favor, so I prepared a tin of tea leaves that I picked from the secret realm, but Manager Zhu didn't like them. At this time, Young Master Feng's people outside took a fancy to my spirit beast, and Manager Zhu helped them to force me to buy it. After I refused, the conflict just now happened."
Zhu Hong was sweating profusely. "Actually, I..."
"I see." Huo Tian curled his lips into a sneer, his voice cold and indifferent. "I had no idea that customers coming to buy things were considered asking for favors, not only having to spend money but also preparing extra gifts? Zhu Hong, you have quite the airs!"
Zhu Hong knelt down abruptly, his face deathly pale. "It was my fault. I didn't know Miss Mo was your friend, Lord Liu..."
"If I weren't a friend, would this be the right thing to do?" Mo Jiuwei retorted.
Zhu Hong was speechless for a moment, then quickly corrected himself, "No, it's not..."
"Alright, I'll find the things for you. Just wait at home. As for the people, my men will handle them and make sure they get revenge for you."
Huo Tian raised his hand to stop Zhu Hong's pointless explanation, and then turned to Mo Jiuwei.
Mo Jiuwei's expression relaxed. "Thank you very much. I'll be staying in Canxin City for the next few days until I get my things. By the way, about the price..."
"My people made a mistake in handling the matter. To make up for it, I'll give it to you at 80% of the market price. What do you think?"
Giving it away is out of the question; nobody's things come from thin air.
Mo Jiuwei understood and accepted this. Although they could still make a profit at 80% of the market price, it was already good enough for her to be able to buy all the materials at a low price.
I really don't want to cause any more trouble in this matter.
“Very good.” She nodded.
Bai Wei received a telepathic message at this moment. After listening, he stepped forward and called out to his master, then whispered, "Master Fan has arrived with some things."
"Well, let him in."
"Yes."
Mo Jiuwei looked towards the door and saw a man in white step forward to greet Huo Tian, then take out something and respectfully hand it to him.
"Master, the items are ready. Please take a look."
Mo Jiuwei's pupils dilated, and she stared intently at the object.
It was a fan, dark purple, with a slender bamboo handle. It resembled a round fan, but was actually made of feathers. Feathers naturally display different colors under different light, and as Huo Tian picked it up, the fan shifted between black and purple, its colors exquisitely gorgeous, like flowing black pearls.
On the lower right corner of the fan, a small character was written in paint: "Light".
Huo Tian held the fan, watching intently, his eyes filled with nostalgia and reverence.
After a long while, he was about to say something, but when he looked up, he met Mo Jiuwei's eyes as she looked at the fan.
Her pupils were deep, and when she stared intently at something, she appeared calm and profound, revealing little of her thoughts.
After meeting her own gaze, she blinked, something flashing rapidly through her eyelashes.
At that glance, Huo Tian sensed something unusual, but couldn't quite put his finger on what it was or why.
"Since there's nothing else, I'll just wait for your people to come and deliver the materials. Don't keep me waiting too long."
She smiled easily, then turned and left.
Huo Tian hummed in agreement, then turned to Manager Fan and said, "This revision is good. Let's leave it at that."
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Zhu Hong quickly slipped out the door and grabbed Mo Jiuwei, "Miss Mo! I'm so sorry, it was really my fault before. Please don't hold it against me. I'm willing to apologize and offer a gift. Could you please...?"
"No."
Mo Jiuwei slapped his hand away, snorted, and went downstairs without looking back.
After taking a couple of steps, she felt her short legs were getting too tired, so she reached out to the maid waiting beside her and smiled sweetly, "Sister, hug me."
The maid's heart melted, and she instinctively reached out and picked her up. "Okay, I'll take you downstairs."
Zhu Hong: ...
He watched helplessly as Mo Jiuwei walked further and further away, feeling as if his heart had shattered into pieces.
Oh no, his tea leaves!
Those are clearly his tea leaves!
He heard it clearly: Mo Jiuwei said that the tea leaves were obtained from a secret realm!
The items in the secret realm mean they are extremely difficult to obtain; there might only be one jar like this in the entire world!
To be unable to taste such exquisite tea is more painful than being beaten up!
Zhu Hong was anxious and regretful, scratching his head in frustration, but he was at a loss for what to do.
Just as he was about to chase after him, he saw that Steward Fan had already come out of the house and told him, "Go in, the master is calling you."
"……Yes."
He entered the room dejectedly, saying, "Master, I know I was wrong."
"You've really made something of yourself. Even our managers probably don't have such a big attitude." Huo Tian looked at him expressionlessly. "Starting next month, you won't be at Zhanxin Hall anymore. Go to the new mine in the west. You can come back when you've personally dug up twenty cartloads of ore."
Zhu Hong: ...
He lowered his head. "Yes."
Now he was even more dejected.
"By the way, when there was a commotion downstairs earlier, you guys seemed to be talking about heavenly thunder. What was that all about?"
Huo Tian asked casually, picking up his teacup to drink.
"Oh, it's that young girl Mo. She didn't want to sell the spirit beast, but when she was forced into a corner, she took out a few talismans. Unexpectedly, they turned out to be Heavenly Thunder Talismans, which really scared everyone to death," Zhu Hong said.
Heavenly Thunder Talisman Treasure?
"Snapped!"
A cracking sound rang out, and Huo Tian suddenly stood up. "What talisman did you say?"
