Chapter 750 - Are You Looking to be Humiliated?
Evil Prince, Come Play With Me
Murong Qingqing pouted. âYour Highness, even with your noble status, you canât be unreasonable. I saw this umbrella first.â
âYou didnât say that you wanted to buy it.â Lu Fenying had been the first to say he would buy it.
The woman wanted nothing more than to use this umbrella as a way of sticking to him; if that happened, he might never be rid of her.
âI was holding it for a look, I didnât say I didnât want it.â Murong Qingqing raised her head proudly.
Lu Fenying looked at the shopkeeper coldly. âThis thing is yours. Who will you sell it to?â
The shopkeeper had a bewildered look on his face. What did he do wrong? Why were the two of them fighting here?
He couldnât afford to offend the Murong family.
However, the man in front of him was obviously extraordinary, and might be even harder to deal with.
The shopkeeper almost burst into tears. âI... I just sell umbrellas. Either way, Iâll offend someone whoever I sell it to... How about... I donât sell it...â
âHow dare you!â
âHow dare you!â
There were two yells at the same time. The shopkeeper hurriedly knelt and said fearfully, âHow... how about whoever can offer the higher price gets it?â
What could he do? This was the only solution he could come up with in the face of two powerful beings.
In fact, he could tell that Miss Murong wanted to buy the umbrella in order to give it to this extraordinary man.
But this nobleman clearly disdained her gift. He had money and power â why would he need a woman to give it to him?
Seeing that Lu Fenying liked the umbrella, Murong Qingqing had subconsciously wanted to give it to him at first.
But on second thought, she realized that something wasnât right. This was a womanâs umbrella. As a man, he wouldnât use it, so he was buying it for someone else.
And it was for a woman.
How could she let that woman have it?
âThree hundred taels,â Lu Fenying said, and the onlookers gasped. Three hundred taels for an umbrella was truly expensive.
Who would have thought Lu Fenying would also add, âGold.â
Murong Qingqing gritted her teeth. The Murong family was rich, but her monthly allowance was only a hundred taels of silver.
She didnât have a lot of money, unless she sold her jewelry, but she couldnât lose.
âFour hundred gold taels!â Murong Qingqing followed.
Lu Fenying smiled mockingly. âIâll buy your store for thirty thousand gold.â
The shopkeeper gasped. How did buying an umbrella turn into buying his store?
Thirty thousand gold taels was three hundred thousand silver taels; even if he worked for several lifetimes, he would never be able to earn that much.
Murong Qingqing looked at Lu Fenying pitifully, tears welling up in her eyes. She was both unwilling and angry at being humiliated.
The shopkeeper looked at her, not daring to respond.
That would offend the Murong family.
Lu Fenying glanced at him. âSend the umbrella and deed to Prince Ziâs residence right now.ân/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om
He was about to leave without looking at Murong Qingqing.
This woman clearly knew his identity, yet still dared to fight with him. The funny thing was that she said she would give it to him.
It was obvious she was up to no good, and he no longer had the mood to buy her cloak off her.
Unexpectedly, the moment he stepped out of the door, someone grabbed hold of his sleeve; it was Murong Qingqing, who complained tearfully, âYour Highness, how... how can you bully me like this?â
She certainly couldnât compare with the wealth of a crown prince.
Why didnât he know how to follow the script, and give way to a woman?
Lu Fenying narrowed his eyes, radiating a frightening chill.
âMiss Murong, you know who I am, and you still want to fight with me? Are you asking for a beating?â
Red Wolf hurriedly slapped Murong Qingqingâs hand away.
He was afraid that his master wouldnât be able to help himself and would kill her.
