Chapter 307 (1/2)
Yao Ruoxian looked through the prices listed on the jade archive again and again He couldn’t believe what Miao Yi had told hile pot of orth 1,500,000 crystals If that were true, the prices of these wines were quite startling indeed
With all the wine he’d been drinking all these years, Yao Ruoxian alht of the total price Realizing that he had been too wasteful, he felt an unbearably sharp pang in his heart
He was partly distraught by the fact that he'd drunk so much money away But as most distressful wasn’t just that He drank all that fine ithout a care in the world as if they were plain water It would have been fine if he’d sed theed them away, and let them drip down the sides of his mouth as he did so
‘What a waste! How ht sotranscendent artifacts with that ht about it Yao Ruoxian placed a fist on his chest out of reflex, his face wincing in pain as he asked, ”You’re justaround with me, aren’t you, kid?”
Miao Yi’s eyes widened in disbelief as he replied, ”Senior You have the bill between me and the Chamber of Co like this? Take another look for yourself”
”Say no more” Yao Ruoxian placed the jade archive back onto Miao Yi’s palm ”I don’t want to see it anymore”
He turned to face the stone wall and took in deep breaths repeatedly If he were to continue to look or hear another word about this matter, his heart would definitely ache terribly His experiences were a little eh a miserable time in his life when he was extre as a h He had never been so wasteful in his entire life It was a new experience for hi terribly because of his failure He wanted to hang hi? As the owner of those pots of wine, Miao Yi was the one whose heart was truly in pain If he didn’t make the other party aware of the severity of his mistake, then Miao Yi would be in even more pain Because to do otherould be equivalent to du all that wine into the sea And that would be even worse! Miao Yi continued to rub salt on Yao Ruoxian’s wounds as he said, ”Senior, let me calculate how much the wines you drank orth I—”
”—You shut up!” Yao Ruoxian abruptly turned around and pointed at Miao Yi’s nose He stoer and scolded, ”Why didn’t you tell me sooner? Why didn’t you tell me those wines were so expensive?”
”I assumed you could tell that on your own”
”As if! I’m not some drunkard”
”Fine, then! Let me put it differently If I were to tell you from the start, do you think I'd still have been able to keep those pots of wine?”
”Uh…” Yao Ruoxian was slightly taken aback He probably would have tried all sorts of ways to take as many of them as he could However, he quickly carity Yao Ruoxian furiously bellowed, ”Bullshi+t! Those wines weren’t yours to begin with You only obtained the it froible for a share of the wines So what if I drank them for free? What can you do to me?”
”Senior If you wish to put it that way, then I have nothing to say”
”Spare me your excuses You’re not some altruistic person, you brat Don’t think I don’t knohat you’re plotting You’re only telling me all this because you want to use those wines to cover the cost of , kid”
With his hands behind his back, Miao Yi secretly er
Outside the cave, Qian’Er immediately came in to stand beside Miao Yi She stared at Yao Ruoxian with keen expectation in her eyes and shouted, ”Teacher!”
Yao Ruoxian’s expression twitched He swept his arm and said, ”The two of you are in cahoots with this act I won’t fall for it”
Qian’Er pleaded, ”Teacher, if anything were to happen to Master in the Sea of Constellations, Xue’Er and I wouldn’t be able to continue living either Master’s eneo so easily”
Yao Ruoxian instantly froze when he heard those words He had been by himself for the majority of his life He enjoyed Qian’Er and Xue’Er’s care and compassion very much, to the point where he felt the sensation of a fa ladies very much Otherwise, he wouldn’t have offered to pass his cultivation art down to theood stuff from Miao Yi at every opportunity he could for their benefit either After soladies He practically saw thehters
Evidently, this was one of the aspects about hih Yao Ruoxian didn’t belong in the syste were to happen to Miao Yi, then as his personal handmaidens, Qian’Er and Xue’Er would definitely be the next ones to bear the brunt of his downfall
When he thought about all the pain and huh, Yao Ruoxian couldn’t help tre you both away Itfor the two of you if this brat were to die You don’t have to be a servant for the rest of your life just for his sake”
”Teacher Master iswere to happen to hi hi to make me mad?” asked Yao Ruoxian as he pointed at Qian’Er’s nose His voice was quivering with rage He then turned to point at Miao Yi and chided him, ”Brat, are you still a man or not? How dare you use women for your own ends Despicable!”
Miao Yi smiled He turned and pulled Qian’Er into his eently kissed her jade-like forehead
