Chapter 248: The pit is so deep that it could bury someone alive.

"If he had such discernment, he wouldn’t be called the number one playboy of Heishi City," Mu Huaidong said disdainfully.

"Speaking of which, Mu Rui’an does have some skills, so how did he end up fathering such a useless son?" Though the Third Elder held animosity towards Mu Rui’an, he still recognized his strength. Seeing Mu Hanyan’s "mindless" behavior, he couldn’t help feeling that Mu Rui’an deserved better.

"Whether he is useless is his own business; it’s just a pity for Mu Nan, who is hell-bent on mixing with such a person." Mu Huaidong said with feigned pity, but inside he was laughing with malicious glee.

This time, Mu Hanyan is probably in big trouble. Mu Nan is now in cahoots with him; if Mu Hanyan is doomed, he won’t end up well either.

"Seventy thousand." Yuan Tianbo saw that ****fan provoked Mu Hanyan’s anger once again and followed suit, deepening the pit.

"Brother Mu, follow, follow, hit him with money, let him know the strength of the Mu Family. A mere merchant’s descendant dares to challenge you? Let him have an eye-opener this time," ****fan said as he hopped and skipped to egg him on.

Across from them, Yuan Tianbo was also excited, just waiting for Mu Hanyan to fall into the trap.

"Ninety thousand, let’s see if this young master doesn’t smash you," Mu Hanyan said arrogantly.

"One hundred thousand," Yuan Tianbo promptly raised the bidding to ten thousand taels.

This was his limit. Even if Mu Hanyan bid just one coin more, he wouldn’t follow. The risk was too great; the pit was deep enough to bury him alive.

Of course, seeing Mu Hanyan’s demeanor, Yuan Tianbo wasn’t too worried. Based on his understanding of Mu Hanyan, the number one playboy of Heishi City had completely fried his brain. As long as his own price wasn’t too outrageous, Mu Hanyan was sure to follow.

But gradually, Yuan Tianbo realized something was amiss. This time, Mu Hanyan didn’t rush to make a bid; instead, he looked at Tian Bo with a smile as pure and dazzling as can be.

Could it be that he caught on? But that was impossible, judging by his earlier behavior, wasn’t it?

Yuan Tianbo couldn’t figure it out and only felt that Mu Hanyan’s harmless smile made him very uneasy, and a layer of cold sweat began to form on his forehead.

We’re talking about ten thousand taels of silver here! If his family found out he spent ten thousand taels to buy a quail’s egg, even if they didn’t kill him, they would cripple him.

Fourth Miss Zhao also felt a sense of unease. Lately, Mu Hanyan always had unexpected moves. Could it be that this time, he was again going to snach defeat from the jaws of victory?

"Congratulations..." Mu Hanyan finally spoke and gave a bow.

Yuan Tianbo felt a darkness in front of his eyes and nearly fainted on the spot. It was finished; she saw through him. But how? That was clearly a griffin’s egg, although of impure blood, wasn’t it?

That question was no longer important. The critical issue was – how was he going to explain to his clan buying a quail’s egg for ten thousand taels?

Fourth Miss Zhao also wore a look of disappointment. They had finally found such a treasure, and yet they still couldn’t outsmart Mu Hanyan. Was this guy really the brainless, extravagant playboy from before? How did he seem to have transformed into a shrewd person?

Just as Yuan Tianbo and Fourth Miss Zhao awaited the final result, Mu Hanyan paused mid-sentence, with a curious expression in his eyes.

"Must get it. Absolutely must get it," a hurried voice from Shan Ling reached Mu Hanyan’s ear.
