Chapter 451 (1/2)
Meeting Little Zero Again (1)
“Didn’t you say just now that you weren’t interested?” Ding Lin questioned with a troubled expression.
“I’m not! But that doesn’t mean I can just hand her to anyone!” Ye Lang replied bleakly.
“Could it be……” Ding Lin raised an eyebrow. She seemed to have figured out something with the smug look on the face.
“Seven thousand!” Li Yan exclaimed.
“Ten thousand!” a bored Ye Lang counter-offered.
“Ah…”
At the moment, the entire crowd froze at the huge sum of money. Their gaze fixated on Ye Lang, they tried to figure out the identity of this anonymous brat from the fox race.
To commoners, ten thousand gold coins was not a small amount. To use this astronomical number, for the virginity of a mere woman. This…was just preposterous!
“Twenty thousand!” Li Yan spoke again.
Once again, the unfocused Ye Lang opened his mouth, “A hundred thousand!”
“....” The entire hall went silent. Not even a single noise was to be heard.
“You scum! Do you even have such an amount of money?!” Li Yan was briefly stunned, then he bellowed in rage.
Ye Lang has long disappeared from his seat and can be seen slowly going up the stage, “That is none of your business. But I do worry for you, do YOU have twenty thousand?”
The lady stared at Ye Lang, a doubtful look appearing on her face. His face...it seems so familiar, but…but where had she seen this man before…
“I am the boss here. My word is the law!” Li Yan continued his rant, clearly showing that he didn’t have the money to fulfil his bid. Not many people had twenty thousand gold coins on them, unlike Ye Lang who brought so much money around.
After all, carrying a hundred thousand gold coins was a privilege known to only a handful in this continent!
“You’re the boss? Then why is it that I heard that this Romantic Floor belongs to the Ye family’s thirteenth prince? What has all this got to do with you?” Ye Lang dug his ear, unconcerned.
“Ha! He has been captured! I rebuilt this place, it belongs to me now!” Li Yan exclaimed.
“You rebuilt the place? Then why are you still using the same name? Why is it that you are still using this building? Did you know you’re currently trespassing? This a serious offence, it’s illegal,” Ye Lang spoke calmly.
Everyone present had already known this but they chose to turn a blind eye on the technicalities. The Li family was powerful now, they couldn’t afford to offend them.
However, if only someone chose to look further into the matter, the Li family would suffer huge losses. And if that happened, Li Yan would be the first to suffer!
And this man still thought that he could level the heavens with just the backing of his family. How arrogant!
“Hmph! Sue me then. As a matter of fact, even Her Majesty the empress is supporting my Li family. You have no idea just how much of Ye family’s riches we have received!” Li Yan continued to boast.
Li Yan’s words revealed the truth. The recent weakening of the Ye family and the strengthening of the Li family was all thanks to the fact that the riches from Ye family are being absorbed into the Li family.
And due to this fact too, it spurred his greed to take the Romantic Floor as his own. Unknown to him, however, is the fact that amongst all the assets that undergone legal transactions, there is no Romantic Floor!
That’s because the Romantic Floor did not belong to the Ye family, but was rather part of Ye Lang’s private assets!
“Well, it’s not like I’m going to admit you as the owner of this place. When Ye Lang returns, trash as he may be called, he is not someone who tolerates others for snatching his stuff!” Ye Lang replied.
