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

Yun Wu lifted her eyebrows and looked at him.

Surprisingly, for some unknown reason, Cloud Murong appeared a little guilty.

In fact, he would never begrudge buying things for his mother. It was just that like most other people, he was here for the last lot which was usually the most precious.

But this woman suddenly told him that she won the bid for this Snow Ganoderma at 300,000 taels on his behalf, which was several times higher than the actual value of this Snow Ganoderma.

Wasn't she treating him as a sucker?

”Lady, don't think that you're eligible to make trouble out of nothing just because you're a friend of Grand Maester's son. Those words you just said were treasonable and heretical, and now... ” Cloud Murong said in a deep voice.

”Your Lordship, even if I did anything displeasing to you, just pay the money first. Can't you see that the girl is still waiting? Even I feel embarrassed watching this.” Yun Wu said with a grin on her plain-looking face.

But judging by her expression, she wasn't embarrassed at all.

With a frown, Cloud Murong glimpsed at the teenage girl standing on the side and then glanced at that unreasonable woman, feeling actually embarrassed.

It seemed as if he really was unwilling to buy this thing for his mother.

”You don't have enough money? If that's the case, I'll go and ask Nangong Yi to pay for it first. You can repay him later.”

After saying this, Yun Wu stood up from the stool, planning to go to Nangong Yi's room.

With a sullen look on his face, Cloud Murong reprimanded in a low voice, ”Sit down.”

How could he refuse to pay the money after she said those words? It was no longer merely about his ”face” but also about his status and dignity.

Cloud Murong darted an angry glance at Yun Wu, turned his head aside and said to the guard standing on the side, ”Go with that girl and pay the money!”

”Yes!”

The guard nodded and soon left with the teenage girl.

Finally, there were only three people in the room.

Cloud Murong said with a sudden, cold face, ”Lady, are you playing a trick on me?”
