Chapter 35

“Hey, little girl, do you have any money with you? If you don’t, we might have to sell you. Maybe that will help your brother pay some interest. This guy has been quite secretive about his family. Gladly, you’re here. Otherwise, whom would I turn to for collecting his debt?”

With a sinister smile, Mr. Jiang intercepted Lan Xiao’s way and looked her up and down.

“Although you have a pretty face, you’re too thin. Look at your chest, there’s not much to see. However, nowadays, there are some people who are interested in school girls. I should be able to find someone who will offer a good price for you...”

Only then did Lan Xiao look at the wicked man in front of her again.

He couldn’t be over thirty years old, his skin was dark, and his features were somewhat handsome. Yet, there was a cold and sinister aspect to his character.

As he spoke, the man looked at her as if she was a pig about to be slaughtered. In his head, he considered how much money he could make by selling her.

Lan Xiao, in turn, stared at him calmly.

“You want to sell me? How much do you want to make with me?”

Seeing how calm she looked, a trace of surprise flashed through Mr. Jiang’s eyes. If it were any other girl in her shoes, she would already be crying with fear.

Did she seriously asked him how much she was worth?

He had to admit this girl was quite interesting.

Stretching out a finger, he shook it.

Lan Xiao raised her eyebrows and said, “Fifty million...”

Mr. Jiang laughed, outraged, “Do you think you’re some kind of priceless treasure to be worth that much money? I have never seen a girl as narcissistic as you.”

She blinked her eyes innocently.

“Mr. Jiang, I’m not saying I’m worth that much money, but I can make it... Besides, how can you tell I’m not priceless? Maybe one day, I will be the most precious thing in this world for someone else.”

Mr. Jiang was truly speechless .

He had seen a lot of narcissistic and thick-skinned people throughout his life. But how could this little girl laugh and joke with so much at stake, including her own life?

Moreover, he had always thought himself to be cold, fierce, and bloodthirsty. Definitely not someone to be messed with.n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

Back in the day, teenage girls used to avoid crossing paths with him whenever they saw him.

He would stamp his feet and shout at them. They used to be so scared of him that they would all burst into tears.

Even the bad girl Han Yun was terrified of him.

However, this little girl in front of him didn’t seem frightened at all. She even smiled at him and dared to say she was priceless.

He couldn’t help but wonder if there was something wrong with her head. Maybe she was stupid?

Suddenly, he glanced at Han Yun and asked, “Have you brought me a fool?”

“...” Lan Xiao was embarrassed.

Han Yun smiled awkwardly as she secretly untied Lan Xingbo.

In order to show how vicious he could be, Mr. Jiang picked up a porcelain cup and clenched it in his hand. It broke instantly.

The fragments fell one after the other on the floor. Looking coldly at Lan Xiao, he warned her, “Little girl, I’m not joking. The blood of those I have killed is much more than the water you have drunk. Don’t make the mistake of thinking you can get close to me or even fool me. If you don’t know what’s good for you and try to play tricks on me, I’ll crush your skinny body into pieces the same way I did with this cup.”

Lan Xiao flinched but managed to put on a flattering smile on her face. Then she parted her lips as if to say something.

However, a fierce roar suddenly echoed through the room, and Han Yun’s body was thrown, landing heavily on the floor.
