Chapter 297: Chapter 300: Slapped in the Face!
“Teacher!”
The mont Elder Qu spoke, Luo Xinning already sensed sothing was wrong and urgently wanted to stop him, but it was already too late!
“Haha, Elder Qu is indeed extraordinary! Such bold and domineering words!”
Luo Qingtong sat on her horse, displaying a lazy and wicked air, and gave Elder Qu a big thumbs up.
“As for this debt, it’s not much! Roughly the treasuries of four or five Dongli Countries should suffice…”
“Thump!”
Before Luo Qingtong could finish her words, Elder Qu, who was standing majestically in front of the Luo Residence ready to sweepingly pay off Luo Xinning’s debt making Luo Qingtong and her people slink away in defeat, almost lost his balance and nearly tumbled down the steps.
“You said how much?!”
He looked at Luo Qingtong in disbelief.
The treasuries of four or five Dongli Countries, that much?!
“Why don’t you just rob soone?” Elder Qu roared loudly, unable to accept it.
The treasuries of four or five Dongli Countries! Did she think they were like street-side cabbages, picked at will?!
Though Dongli Country is just a Low-class Small Country, one country’s treasury is equivalent to the entire collection of an Upper-class aristocratic family!
What’s more, Luo Qingtong ntioned four or five of them!
Even if Elder Qu has so assets in Tianyu Empire, he was not generous to the extent of casually pulling out an amount equal to the treasuries of four or five Dongli Countries!
Moreover, whether as a Soul Master or Martial Artist, cultivation requires substantial resources!
Elder Qu is wealthy, indeed earning a lot, but he also spends a lot!
To spend so much money for Luo Xinning, a disciple he had just taken in, it’s not like his brain was kicked in!
“You’re simply asking for the lion’s share!” he protested, his face turning red.
He had previously declared he would pay for Luo Xinning’s debts, but now he couldn’t produce the money.
This embarrassing act made Elder Qu feel a wave of sha and embarrassnt, glaring at Luo Qingtong as if he could devour her.
He had never been so humiliated before!
“Asking for the lion’s share?”
Luo Qingtong sneered.
She casually picked up a ledger from the ground, flipped to a page, and threw it at Elder Qu.
“Look carefully, every single item listed here is what Luo Xinning took from ! And most of it was sent to gradually by the Tianyu Royal Family since our engagent was decided!”
At this point, Luo Qingtong lifted the riding crop in her hand, tapped it against the saddle, and looked down from her high position at Elder Qu and Luo Xinning at the front of the Luo Residence.
“As the future Fifth Prince Consort, everything sent by the Tianyu Royal Family is a premium item from the Imperial Family. Any single item is worth the entirety of an aristocratic family in Dongli Country!”
“Would you dare say these items are worth less than the treasury of Dongli Country? Are the people from the Tianyu Royal Family so poor that they would only send substandard trash for their most favored and talented Fifth Prince’s future Princess Consort?”
“Or do you think, this treasury of Dongli Country is richer and more lavish than the treasure vault of the Tianyu Royal Family?”
“The value of the treasuries of four or five Dongli Countries, I actually underestimated! I didn’t even include the various items sent by the major aristocratic families and Dongli Royal Family!”
“This kind of sincerity, and you still say I’m asking for the lion’s share?”
Luo Qingtong said this with a sneer.
So what if she’s asking for the lion’s share?
Would Luo Xinning and the others dare say a word against it?
Would they dare claim that the items sent by the Tianyu Royal Family aren’t worth much?”
Although Luo Qingtong didn’t like the Tianyu Royal Family at all, if they continuously refused to break off the engagent, she wouldn’t hesitate to use their reputation to her advantage!
Luo Xinning wanted to use the teacher from the Tianyu Branch to pressure her, she’ll see if that could hold her down!
