Chapter 26 (1/2)
Chapter 26 – The Crown Prince is the Witness (3)
The majority of the people in the great hall were commoners. When had they ever gotten a chance to see such a godly existence like the crown prince in person? For a while, they stood there in awe.
Old Zhong’s face was full of surprise and disbelief. He hurriedly paid his respects, “This one welcomes Your Highness, the Crown Prince!”
It was as if they were struck with lightning! All of them were struck dumb. Even Ning Xuemo was shocked.
‘The Crown Prince?!’
Plop! Plop! Everyone in the hall fearfully knelt. “We greet the Crown Prince!”
Ning Xuemo was silent.
Naturally she knew who the Crown Prince was. What she didn’t know was why he ran to her house, stayed on her roof and listened in from a corner…
Come to think of it, how long had he been listening in?
Of course, she couldn’t ask him. After all, he was an incredibly powerful figure. She couldn’t go and provoke this big fish.
With the distinguished Crown Prince acting as the witness to this bet, how could her Second Uncle dare say otherwise later?
He had no other alternatives but to sign a contract with Ning Xuemo on the terms of the bet. When Second Uncle’s people had come to take things away, though the way they picked things was rather random, nevertheless, Old Zhong had kept track of every single item they had taken. When converted to silver, it amounted to five thousand taels of silver.
In the presence of the Crown Prince, no one dared to play any tricks. Even if Second Uncle was planning to renege his debt previously, right now with the Crown Prince here, he did not dare to entertain such thoughts…
In his heart, he selfishly hoped that Ning Xuemo would fail to heal his wife…
Ji Yunhuang’s eyes that were as bright as the moon landed on Ning Xuemo, “Miss Xuemo, with me as the witness, you may begin.”
