Chapter 741 (2/2)

Tang Xiu and Xue Yu then appeared at the door. As they entered the room, Xue Yu’s gaze instantly fell on the Singular Recherché Fruit held by the old man in Chinese tunic. A light flashed in her eyes as she said, “Are you Boss Huo? My name is Xue Yu and I want to buy that fruit from you.”

Huo Siming stared dully as a series of question tags popped up inside his head. He happened to come across this Hoarfrost Fruit yesterday by chance. Little did he think that he would encounter two waves of customers who were interested in this fruit. But then again, this was a great occasion nonetheless!

He could not help but feel a bit excited inside. The market should have competitions, to begin with. If these two really wanted to have this Hoarfrost Fruit, they would definitely compete in offering the price, and the last winner who would benefit from it was himself.

The old man in Chinese tunic turned his head to look at Tang Xiu and Xue Yu and then said before Huo Siming answered the question, “Young woman, I already booked this Hoarfrost Fruit, so your coming is rather unfortunate. Look elsewhere if you need it.”

Huo Siming’s face slightly changed and he quickly interjected, “You said you didn’t want to buy it just now, Mr. Situ, hence they still have the right to buy this Hoarfrost Fruit. You see, they have already stated their intention, so…”

The old man in Chinese tunic slightly frowned and a cold light flashed in his eyes. Old and experienced as he was, how could he not tell that Huo Siming wanted him to compete with these two young people who had just arrived? Although he did not like Huo Siming’s attitude and means, he had to admit that he did say that he would not buy it.

He somewhat regretted saying that, but now was not the time to brood over it. Let alone 6.5 million yuan, he would pay even 65 million.

But then again, he did not want to spend too much and got conned due to his generosity either. He got up slowly and looked straight at Tang Xiu and Xue Yue, saying, “The two of you, you should also take into account that the first to come will be the first to get the service, no matter what business you do. I already have this Hoarfrost Fruit in my hand, so I hope you leave it as it is.”

Black Widow did not know who Tang Xiu was. After all, there were too many spectators back then in the underground fighting competition, and she did not have the time to remember everyone. As the old man in the Chinese tunic got up, she also hurriedly followed suit and spoke, “Two guests, I introduce you senior Situ Hong from Beijing’s Situ Family. Even the patriarch of the Situ Family must address him as Second Uncle.”

Xue Yu knitted her brows. She could tell that this scantily clothed woman introduced Situ Hong and used the Situ Family to pressure them. Tang Xiu, who stood next to her, also had the same thought after hearing it.

“Situ Hong? You are determined to obtain it, aren’t you?” Asked Tang Xiu slowly.

“That’s right. I need this Hoarfrost Fruit.” Situ Hong nodded. “Boss Huo and I have already agreed on the price.”

“If so, less medicated diet for me, then!” Tang Xiu shook his head. “Besides, I do have a bit of friendship with the Situ Family, so I can’t refute your face this time.”

“Presumptuous!” Black Widow’s face changed and scolded angrily.

A bit of anger could be seen on Situ Hong’s face, while he also looked a bit stunned. He never thought that Tang Xiu wanted to buy this genuine Singular Recherché Fruit just for a medicated diet. It had to be noted that even if he did not identify this fruit as Singular Recherché Fruit and still bought it as a Hoarfrost Fruit, it would still cost him around 5 to 6 million yuan.

Huo Siming was a bit regretful inwardly. He thought that these two young people and Situ Hong would compete on the price, and he would be the last man who to benefit from it. He did not expect that the young man actually gave it up directly. He could only sigh inwardly as waved his hand and said, “Since you don’t want to buy it, then please go downstairs and wait for me there! I will entertain the two of you after entertaining these two guests.”

Xue Yu was somewhat unwilling. Upon hearing Huo Siming asking them to leave, she said with a hesitant look, “Tang Xiu, I really want to…”

“No, it’s fine missing one medicated diet!” Tang Xiu interrupted her. “Besides, it’s not worth it to haggle with this elder of the Situ Family over it.”

The reason he said that was that he was rather broke at present. Except for the 10 million yuan he gave to Xue Yu, there were only a little more than 2 million yuan left in his bank card. He would lose face if he were to compete against Situ Hong on the price.

“Let’s just go!” Tang Xiu grabbed Xue Yu’s shoulder and turned around.

“Please wait!”

Situ Hong had a slightly changed expression as he stepped forward and called.

“We already gave it up. What do you want now?” Tang Xiu turned around and asked with an annoyed expression.

There was a probing tone when Situ Hong answered, “This young woman just called you Tang Xiu, right? Could it be that you’re the young Divine Doctor of Star City Chinese Medical Hospital, Tang Xiu?”

“Little did I think that I’m so famous!” Tang Xiu said lightly. “To think that the Situ Family’s Second Uncle knows my name is rather unexpected!”

This time, Situ Hong’s complexion changed completely. There was a complicated expression in his eyes, as he then said, “It’s really you, Grandmaster Tang! I was really ignorant to not know your identity just now. Please forgive me if I have offended you. I do really want to buy this Hoarfrost Fruit, but I’m willing to gift it to you as a token of apology.”
