Chapter 144: Bidding for This Thing for His Mother (1/2)

Translator: Soldier

”Was it you who made those disrespectful remarks?” Cloud Murong asked in a deep voice.

Yun Wu didn't reply immediately but sat down in a chair on the side, poured herself a cup of tea and sipped at it, as if she was an acquaintance of them.

”Your Lordship, did you summon me here to interrogate me?” This time, Yun Wu didn't lower her voice.

That languid, apathetic voice sounded very familiar to him.

Cloud Murong didn't recall immediately, but Grandma Medicine's eyes lit up and shot at Yun Wu.

However, when she saw that plain, strange face, she slightly furrowed her forehead.

'How come their voices are so much alike? But she's not her...'

At this moment, there was a knock at the door.

Cloud Murong glimpsed at Yun Wu with a frown, turned his head aside and looked in the direction of the person who had just walked inside.

”Your Lordship, Master Nangong said that you won the bid for this 1,000-year-old Snow Ganoderma. He asked me to send it here.” The teenage girl carrying the Snow Ganoderma said respectfully, put the Snow Ganoderma on the table and waited on the side.

Apparently, she was waiting for him to pay 300,000 taels.

Cloud Murong twisted his head aside and looked sideways at Yun Wu.

As if having just recalled this, Yun Wu raised her head and looked at Cloud Murong, smiling, ”Your Lordship, I bid for this for Venerable Mistress Murong. I hate to bother you, but the price is 300,000 taels of silver.”

This remark instantly made Cloud Murong's face darken.

She bid for this thing for his mother?

300,000 taels?

Was this woman playing him? He had never said anything from start to finish, and he didn't even know her!

She was with Nangong Yi. Was that Nangong Yi by any chance...

”It seems as if Your Lordship doesn't know that this 1,000-year-old Snow Ganoderma can prolong people's lives. You begrudge paying mere 300,000 taels for your own mother?”
