Chapter 109: Disgraced
Chapter 109: Disgraced
The man who came was Xue Ruhua's father, Xue Laicai, the richest man in Longhu City.
These father and daughter look really alike, both with round faces and round figures. The only difference is that Xue Ruhua is a little taller than her father.
Xue Laicai ran out of breath, his forehead was covered with sweat, and he panted and bowed to Huo Yuanruo, "Good...good man, please spare my life. It's...my daughter who is ignorant and disturbed you. Please, for her young age, spare...spare her this time."
Huo Yuanruo crossed his arms over his chest, with a look of dandy arrogance on his face, and squinted at the man, "Are you his father?"
Xue Laicai nodded quickly, "That's right, I have warned this evil girl a long time ago, but I didn't expect that she still offended you all. It's really... Hey, I hope you can forgive me."
Li Mulan took two steps forward, "Boss Xue knows us?"
Xue Laicai was obviously stunned for a moment, and he didn't know the identity of this girl, but thinking about their relationship with the City Lord's Mansion, he still responded very kindly, "I don't know her, but I have been doing business in Longhu City for many years, and I have some understanding of the things in this city. I know that our City Lord has a distinguished guest recently, so... hehe, I paid some attention to her, hehe, I paid some attention to her."
Li Mulan chuckled, she is indeed a businesswoman, she is very smart and keeps an eye on all directions.
"No wonder Boss Xue is the richest man in Dragon Tiger City. He is so sharp. I really admire him."
Xue Laicai was very respectful, but his eyes revealed the shrewdness and... perfunctory attitude of a businessman. "No, no, I'm not as powerful as the girl says. I'm just a small business, haha, a small business."
"Dad? Dad!... Save me, save me, arrest all these bitches..." Xue Ruhua finally got up, her hair and clothes were all messed up, her face was full of blood from her nose, she looked so scary, her eyes were full of hatred, she looked like a madman. The people around took two steps back, fearing that they would be targeted by this crazy woman.
"Shut up!" Xue Laicai yelled at him with a fierce look in his eyes, "Didn't I tell you that these people are nobles and must not be neglected? Didn't you listen to a word I said? You idiot."
Xue Ruhua couldn't care less at this moment. She was so embarrassed and embarrassed today, she must make these bitches pay the price. "What noble people? Look at them, they don't look like noble people at all."
Xue Ruhua pointed at Li Fu and the others behind Li Mulan and said, "They look like country folk. Dad, you must have made a mistake. Come on, arrest them for me."
When no one was paying attention, Qingyu quietly pulled out a long whip and swung it at Xue Ruhua, hitting her until she screamed.
“Ah... someone is murdering! Dad... please save me...”
Xue Laicai was also frightened by this sudden accident. The long whip was so powerful that it seemed to have eyes. It could follow Xue Ruhua wherever she hid. Soon, bloodstains appeared on the strong and round body.
Xue Ruhua began to get scared only at this time. She felt that the woman who attacked her didn't seem to care about her identity at all, and was not afraid of her at all. In fact... beating her to death was just a trivial matter to her.
Xue Laicai reacted and quickly pleaded, "Lady, please spare my life, lady, please spare my life." But the whip was so powerful that he could only watch anxiously from the side and did not dare to step forward at all.
Qingyu's eyes were cold, and she pulled back her hand until Xue Ruhua could no longer utter dirty words. "If I hear any dirty words come out of your mouth again, I'll pull out your tongue."
Xue Ruhua curled up and shivered, "No... I don't dare anymore, I don't dare anymore."
Li Mulan smiled and shook her head, "It's really boring. Okay, sister, don't be angry. We still have to go have lunch."
Xue Laicai looked at Li Mulan with gratitude, but now he was no longer perfunctory as before, "Thank you, young lady, you are so righteous. I..."
Before Xue Laicai could finish his words, Li Mulan waved her hand and interrupted him, "Boss Xue, we don't have time to waste here with you. My sisters and I came to the Treasure Pavilion to buy jewelry, but after Miss Xue's commotion, they probably don't have the mood anymore..."
Xue Laicai had been doing business for so many years and was very shrewd. He quickly replied like a servile person, "How can we let the girls return empty-handed?" Then he shouted towards the second floor of the Treasure Pavilion, "Manager Xu, Manager Xu?"
The shopkeeper of the Treasure Pavilion was hiding on the second floor watching at the moment, and he immediately opened the window and said, "Hey! Hey, what do you want to talk to me about, Boss Xue?"
Xue Laicai cursed in his heart, this Old Xu is really a piece of shit, we have known each other for so many years, but he doesn't even know how to help each other.
"Pack up all the things that these girls have just liked and they are mine." Then he looked at Li Mulan and asked, "Are you satisfied?"
"Boss Xue is straightforward." Then she glanced at the people on the ground, and the corners of her lips curved up. "Since Boss Xue is so generous, I will give you this face. However, as a father, Boss Xue has to pay more attention to this Miss Xue. If there is a next time, it will not be so easy to get away. If a small merchant family is really killed, you can only... consider yourself unlucky."
Li Mulan's obvious warning tone made Xue Laicai stiffen. At this moment, he really paid attention to this girl who looked only 16 or 17 years old. It was obvious that she was the one who could make the decision. Seeing that she didn't seem to be lying, Xue Laicai felt scared. "Yes, yes, after this incident, I will definitely discipline her strictly and never let this evil girl do anything out of line again."
At this time, the shopkeeper came down and brought over all the jewelry that had been selected for Li Mulan and others, two trays in total.
Li Mulan's mouth twitched, and she looked at the shopkeeper with a teasing look. But the shopkeeper was also a wonderful person, and he secretly gave Li Mulan a look, as if he did this entirely for them, to help them vent their anger and make a lot of money from the richest man in Longhu City.
"Boss Xue is very generous. This is all. These people have objectively chosen it. The total is 63,000 taels of silver. We are old acquaintances. We will cancel the decimals for you. Boss Xue, just pay 60,000 taels."
Xue Laicai was so angry that his mouth twitched, but at the moment he had no choice but to pay it. Not only did he have to pay, but he had to pay it happily.
The farce ended just like that. Xue Laicai greeted Li Mulan and the others with a smile before taking Xue Ruhua and the servants away amidst the people's pointing and groaning. This time, the Xue family really lost face.
When the owner of the Treasure Pavilion saw people leave, his smile disappeared all of a sudden, and he even spat at their backs.
