Princess Against the World

The mother-in-law counted the gold coins, and finally a smile appeared on her face.

"Girl, don't blame me for nagging, there's really nothing we can do about it...because before this, too many people came to fish in troubled waters and disrupted our business!!"

After receiving the gold coins, Ling Luoyu smiled lightly and said he never cared.

The mother-in-law opened the door: "Mr. Zhao, we have a guest..."

Behind the wooden door was a slightly dark room, with only four small candles lit in the corner. As the strong wind passed by, they whirred and flickered, and the figures in the light became more and more overlapping, making it difficult to see clearly.

"sit!"

Mr. Zhao's voice was indifferent and emotionless. He was hidden in the darkness and his face could not be seen clearly.

In the middle of the room was a dirty felt rug, with seven or eight people sitting on it.

After hearing what Mr. Zhao said, one of them moved aside to make room for Ling Luoyu.

Ling Luoyu staggered down and sat down, putting the crutch aside, which immediately attracted the attention of several people around him.

"How come a cripple...comes to buy useless elixirs?!"

"Yeah, it's already like this, what's the use of buying useless elixirs anymore?!"

"..."

In the midst of muttering, Mr. Zhao slowly opened his eyes, his eyes flashed, he looked sideways at Ling Luoyu's legs, and finally took a look at her before closing his eyes.

The room fell into silence, only the sound of everyone's breathing could be heard.

Ling Luoyu took the opportunity to look around. In the corner on the right, there was an hourglass with two-thirds of it already dripping.

The falling sand makes no sound.

Apart from her, there was also a woman among the group of people in the room.

Xu is the sixth sense between women. When Ling Luoyu looked at her, she also looked sideways at her.

The two looked at each other, and the expression on the woman's face did not change much, but she turned her head and sat quietly.

Ling Luoyu shook his head and chuckled, looking at the hourglass again.

Someone came sideways and lowered his voice: "The bid for waste elixirs is to gather ten people or until all the sand in the hourglass has fallen..."

The speaker was a middle-aged man in his forties with a somewhat wretched appearance, sniffing the fragrance of Ling Luoyu wantonly.

In the dark for men, it's the same for women.

If the two scars on her face weren't so hideous, he would really have had indescribable thoughts.

It's a pity that after seeing the scars on her face, all the indescribable things disappeared.

Ling Luoyu calmly tilted his body to one side and distanced himself from the wretched man.

"So, we have to wait for someone to come over, or... wait until the sand in the hourglass drains out?!"

"Yes...so, we still have some time..."

The wretched man's hand quietly touched Ling Luoyu's slender waist.

"Snapped!"

His wrist was grabbed tightly by someone behind Ling Luoyu.

"Boy, you're really itchy, aren't you?! How dare you be dishonest here with Mr. Zhao?! Are you going to bully someone else's girl just because she's honest?!"

"Hao Shitou, let go..."

Yang Zi was grabbed by the wrist and twisted, and his whole body couldn't help but spin half a circle, feeling cold and cold from the pain.

"This...this doesn't belong to your wife or sister. You...why are you meddling in your own business?!"

Hao Shitou squeezed Yang Zi's hand, and instead of letting go, he squeezed it even more forcefully.

"Nonsense!! Other girls are like that, and you still have the nerve to do it? Are you even a human being?!"
