Chapter 1277: Chapter 1277: My Young Master
“What the hell is this?” Qin Yu felt a chill down his spine from Danba’s gaze.
Luckily, Danba just glanced at Qin Yu before closing the jade box and walking back to VIP seat number five with the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus.
VIP seat number six was occupied by Zhou Yanming, who walked up to the podium with a tray, which carried several black, root-like objects.
Seeing this, the crowd began whispering among themselves.
“Eh? What is Master Zhou carrying there? Isn’t he deliberately making things difficult for Miss Nangong? I heard that Master Zhou does not have a good relationship with dicine Valley.”
“You’re mistaken, how could Master Zhou target Miss Nangong? He’s too busy trying to curry favor with her since Master Zhou’s wife is the forr Saintess of dicine Valley.”
“Huh? Really? No wonder Master Zhou visits dicine Valley every New Year.”
“Shh… keep your voice down. The lady is a taboo topic for Master Zhou. Ever since he took a second wife, the first wife returned to dicine Valley and has been avoiding him.”
“I see, no wonder Master Zhou is so doting on Zhou Feng. It’s because he feels guilty towards his mother!”
Zhou Yanming stepped up to the podium and placed the tray on the identification table, eyeing Nangong Zihan with a complicated look, “Miss Nangong, if you please.”
While Nangong Zihan usually greeted everyone with a smile, her expression soured upon seeing Zhou Yanming—she disliked fickle n.
Her uncle-in-law was notably fickle!
“Wild Yoxan Wood, diocre quality, weighs 30 coins, 200 years old, dicinal effects: lowers blood pressure, relieves spasms, antibacterial.”
After finishing, Nangong Zihan softly said, “Next, please.”
Zhou Yanming’s face darkened as he slowly grabbed the tray and whispered, “Niece, do you dislike that much? How’s your aunt doing?”
“Zhou Yanming, you have been divorced by my aunt, please don’t call your niece.”
Zhou Yanming sighed and returned to seat number six with his Yoxan Wood.
Several major dicine rchants eyed Zhou Yanming with intense interest, as Yoxan Wood was incredibly rare, especially the two-hundred-year-old variety.
Qin Yu’s gaze remained steady; although Zhou Yanming’s Yoxan Wood was quite precious, he didn’t need it.
Soon, it was the turn of VIP seat number thirteen. Qin Yu unconsciously moved to pick up the jade box but Mo Yuqi was quicker!
Mo Yuqi’s hands reached for the jade box before Qin Yu, clutched it, and hurried towards the podium—Hah! As if she’d let Qin Yu and Nangong Zihan have a chance to interact!
Did those two think she was invisible earlier with their flirting?
In her jealousy, Mo Yuqi had forgotten to keep her veil on, so when she stepped up to the podium, many who recognized her widened their eyes in confusion.
“Eh? Isn’t that Miss Mo?”
“Wow! Miss Mo looks so beautiful in traditional clothing too! She’s every bit as striking as Nangong Zihan!”
“Truly the number one beauty of Capital City!”
…
Mo Yuqi placed the jade box on the table, looking at Nangong Zihan with a challenging gaze, “Miss Nangong, this is our young master’s dicinal herb, please do check it.”
Our young master?
Swish! Everyone’s gaze instantly turned towards Qin Yu!
Many young talents who had co with their elders to attend the dicinal herb exchange conference, upon hearing Mo Yuqi’s words, their eyes flashed fiercely as if they were predators!
