Chapter 2188 - 2040: Exchange of Goods and Payment (Part 2)

Chapter 2188: Chapter 2040: Exchange of Goods and Payment (Part 2)

Song Xiaodong said, "Cash in one hand, goods in the other. Even if I regret it, that’s my business. Sir, I’m really sorry, but this Deer Antler, I’m taking it today."

"You punk, you’ve got guts. Today I’m not just taking the Deer Antler, I’m going to make sure you spend a few days in the hospital too!" Mr. Li said to Song Xiaodong.

Song Xiaodong turned around directly, impatience written all over his face.

The little boss of the herb shop saw that he couldn’t persuade Song Xiaodong, so he had to walk over to Boss Li, looking at him with a troubled expression, saying nothing.

"Alright, you can go back, stay out of this. I’m getting this Deer Antler today no matter what." Mr. Li said to the little herb shop boss.

The little boss of the herb shop felt like he’d been granted amnesty and turned around to leave.

Before long, a group of people walked in, followed by a woman in sunglasses, a red professional outfit, and black high heels, escorted in by a bunch of thugs.

"Director Zhang, there’s someone here stealing my Deer Antler! I’ve been squatting here guarding it for more than half a month, and this guy bought it right out from under me, and he even hit me!" Mr. Li said to the woman.

Song Xiaodong and Chu Xianling saw that it was none other than Zhang Yanran.

Chapter 2041 Miss Chu

Song Xiaodong and Chu Xianling couldn’t help but burst out laughing.

After listening to Mr. Li, Zhang Yanran turned her head and took a look at the two of them, instantly freezing in place, whatever expression she had hidden beneath her sunglasses unknown.

"Mr. Li actually brought his backer over!"

"So Boss Li was working for Miss Zhang all along, no wonder he spends money like water!"

"Yeah, these two are just unlucky, I guess."

"What kind of world is this, where buying something offends people?"

"Exactly, even after you’ve already bought something, someone still comes to snatch it away!"

Zhang Yanran stood there dazed, nobody knew what she was thinking. Seeing that she wasn’t moving, Mr. Li went on, "Boss, you have to stand up for me, look at how he kicked me!"

This scene felt déjà vu; the head of the Chu Family had once been sent flying by a kick from Song Xiaodong in just the same way.

Zhang Yanran snapped back to her senses, hurriedly took off her sunglasses, and walked over with a smile on her face, head bowed respectfully, saying to Song Xiaodong and Chu Xianling, "So it’s Mr. Song and Miss Chu here!"

"Mm." Chu Xianling nodded lightly; Song Xiaodong didn’t respond.

Seeing the bags in the hands of Song Xiaodong and Chu Xianling, Zhang Yanran hurriedly reached out. "Come, come, Miss Chu, here, let me carry these for you." She moved to take what Chu Xianling was holding.

Chu Xianling thought for a moment, then loosened her grip and handed the things to Zhang Yanran.

"You, come over here." Zhang Yanran waved to the others she’d brought; two burly men stepped forward to carry the stuff for Song Xiaodong and Chu Xianling.

"What’s going on?"

"Who are these two, to have such pull that even Miss Zhang is bowing and scraping to them?"

"No idea, but I heard Zhang Yanran call that woman ’Miss Chu.’"

"Miss Chu? The Chu Family’s eldest miss?"

"Is she really the Chu Family’s eldest miss?"

Boss Li was already stunned seeing Zhang Yanran like this.

After instructing her people to take the things from Song Xiaodong and Chu Xianling, Zhang Yanran turned around and looked at Mr. Li with open disgust, her face dark as she waved him over.

With a nervous heart, Mr. Li walked over to stand before Song Xiaodong, Chu Xianling, and Zhang Yanran.

"Apologize!" Zhang Yanran’s face was as dark as storm clouds before a downpour as she shouted at Mr. Li.

Mr. Li knew he’d probably offended some big shots, but he still looked at Zhang Yanran unwillingly.

"Apologize!" Zhang Yanran’s tone rose another notch.

"I’m sorry." Mr. Li lowered his head begrudgingly and apologized to Song Xiaodong.

"Miss Zhang, this gentleman said he’d make sure I couldn’t walk out this door, and even said he’d send me to the hospital." Song Xiaodong said to Zhang Yanran.

"You idiot! Do you even know who this is?" Zhang Yanran cursed at Mr. Li, then pointed at Song Xiaodong and asked him.

Of course Mr. Li had no idea who this was; if he did, even if you gave him ten times his courage, he wouldn’t have dared pull this stunt.

"This is Mr. Song from Minghe!"

Mr. Li had never heard of a Mr. Song in Minghe.

"And this is Miss Chu Xianling!" Zhang Yanran pointed at Chu Xianling again.

This time, Mr. Li understood just how serious things were.

"Ch–Chu–Miss Chu?" A flash of despair crossed Mr. Li’s face.

"Miss Chu, it’s my fault!" Mr. Li was about to kneel.

Chu Xianling quickly grabbed him to stop him.

"What are you doing?" Chu Xianling said to Mr. Li, annoyed.

"Miss Chu, it’s my fault!" With a loud smack, Mr. Li slapped himself across the face.

As if he hadn’t seen any of this, Song Xiaodong said to Zhang Yanran, "Send these herbs over to the Xianling Family."

"Yes, yes!" Zhang Yanran agreed readily.

Song Xiaodong and Zhang Yanran then walked out of the traditional medicine wholesale market empty-handed.

"Why aren’t you going to see your Teacher Wang?" Chu Xianling asked.

"Not going." Song Xiaodong replied.

"Why not?" Chu Xianling asked.

"Don’t want to." Song Xiaodong said again.

"What, things aren’t harmonious between you two?" Chu Xianling asked with a smile.

"No... it’s just, he kindly taught me a Cultivation Technique, and I didn’t practice it properly when I got back. I feel a bit guilty toward him." Song Xiaodong said.

"Who told you not to practice properly? That’s on you!" Chu Xianling said.

"Actually, it’s kind of your fault too..." Song Xiaodong said.

"What does this have to do with us?" Chu Xianling refused to admit it.

"Yes, yes, it’s my fault. Of course, the fact that you’re all too beautiful is also a big reason." Song Xiaodong said to Chu Xianling.

"Hmph!" Chu Xianling shook her head smugly.
