Chapter 338: Exorbitant (1/2)
Fan Ping grumbled in anger when he saw the cheeky and arrogant expression of Zhu Wenqian.
”Although I promised to pay… I never said when though.” Fan Ping suddenly said.
His sorrows instantly turned to joy as he grinned from ear to ear.
Zhu Wenqian nodded her head.
”Indeed, you never mentioned when.” She agreed with his claims.
Afterward, she stood up from her bed and started walking toward the door.
”Since someone wants to be shameless like that, then I shall gladly play by their game as well.”
Fan Ping raised an eyebrow.
”What do you mean by that?” He asked.
”Simple, I shall head out to meet with Yang Wei and mention that someone is hiding in my room. After all, I only promised to let you hide here, but never once did I mention about not exposing the person.” Zhu Wenqian smirked.
Fan Ping's face turned ashen white.
He was truly stumped by the swift thinking of Zhu Wenqian.
”I-I was merely teasing you, Zhu Wenqian. 10 mature Dragon Soul Grass, right?” Fan Ping said as he cleared his throat slightly.
However, Zhu Wenqian shook her head and scoffed coldly.
”Originally, it was 10 mature Dragon Soul Grass, but now the price has increased to a whopping 20 mature Dragon Soul Grass.”
Fan Ping twitched his mouth.
”When did the price suddenly increase?” He asked in an uproar.
Although he could be counted as filthy rich with the immense amount of treasures within the Pagoda, he couldn't just waste it without giving a thought.
Meanwhile, Zhu Wenqian crossed her arms and sneered coldly.
”I'm extorting you because you didn't wish to fulfill your promise.”
She then stuck her tongue out and laughed, ”Bite me!”
Fan Ping clenched his fist before releasing it and flung his sleeve.
Soon, multiple Dragon Soul Grass appeared outside and landed next to Zhu Wenqian.
”Hmph, this is the last time that I would be scammed by you.” Fan Ping said as he vanished from sight.
Zhu Wenqian grinned wickedly as she gladly held the 20 mature Dragon Soul Grass in her hand.
”Heh, a pleasure to do business with you,” She then said and slowly savored one of the Dragon Soul Grass.
Sometime later, the door to Zhu Wenqian's room was knocked once again.
”Zhu Wenqian, I know you're up so open the door already.” Yang Wei's voice resounded.
Zhu Wenqian almost had a heart attack when she heard Yang Wei's voice.
'H-How did he know?' She wondered silently.
Suddenly, the door to her room opened and shocked her deeply.
”Y-Yang Wei… How can you just enter a woman's room without permission?” Zhu Wenqian stuttered.
”Get back outside.” She ordered in a commanding tone, but inwardly, she was sweating a lot and had a cold chill running down her spine.
Meanwhile, Yang Wei narrowed his eyes as he took small steps forward.
