âWhatâs going on here?â
Just as it was getting noisy outside, an elderly voice resounded from within the auction hall. Dressed in a flax robe, Shopkeeper Zhao strode outside under the gazes from the crowd. Upon seeing Gu Ruoyunâs expressionless face, he froze for a moment before frowning and turning his gaze towards Qin Luo and Gu Panpan.
âTell me, what are you trying to do by causing such a ruckus outside my Hundred Herb Hall?â
Qin Luoâs expression changed. No matter how haughtily he acted, that was only in front of those he could intimidate. In front of Hundred Herb Hallâs Shopkeeper Zhao, he didnât dare to continue to act as such.
âShopkeeper Zhao, thereâs nothing going on. Weâre heading in right now.â
âHehe.â The sound of escaping laughter rang out. Luo Yin couldnât help but laugh even louder, âNothingâs going on? Tsk tsk, who was the one just insulting Gu Ruoyun and calling her a little errand girl? Who was the one who dared to say that Hundred Herb Hall would chase us away! So anyone who has relations with Gu Panpan is always this shameless? Theyâll disavow whatever they have just said in the blink of an eye.â
Shopkeeper Zhaoâs expression was extremely ugly. On the outside, although it seemed like Elder Yu called the shots, it was actually Gu Ruoyun who was the real owner. Even Elder Yu had to follow her orders. This fellow, he even wanted to get Hundred Herb Hall to chase her away?
âGentleman Qin, havenât you gone overboard with your words? So this is how the Qin family raises their children! It looks like my Hundred Herb Hall is too small to entertain bigshots like yourself. Please go away!â
Gu Panpanâs expression had changed from one of astonishment into an unsightly one. She sneered and said: âShopkeeper Zhao, youâre just a little shopkeeper. Even Elder Yu hasnât said anything, who are you to chase us out? Is this how your Hundred Herb Hall treats guests? Youâll make enemies with the Qin Order for a little Gu Ruoyun. Do you think thatâs worth it? You want me to leave today? If I just refuse to go, what can you do to me?â
Gu Panpan had clearly forgotten that Elder Yu had gone against the Weapon Refining Sect and had even battled against a martial king just for Gu Ruoyun. Why would he care about offending a single Qin Order?
From Gu Panpanâs point of view, this was simply Shopkeeper Zhaoâs personal decision. The one who called the shots in Hundred Herb Hall was Elder Yu. Elder Yu had not said anything yet, so what right did Shopkeeper Zhao have to make such a decision?
âPanpan!â Qin Luoâs face changed instantly. He was now starting to regret bringing Gu Panpan to the auction.
Who would have known that this woman would be this brainless. Although Shopkeeper Zhao wasnât the highest ranked person in Hundred Herb Hall, he still had enough authority over matters like these. Offending him wasnât the best move...
âQin-ge...â
Gu Panpan still wanted to say something more, but upon seeing Qin Luoâs terrible expression, she swallowed her words and instead fiercely glared at Gu Ruoyun and Luo Yin.
âShopkeeper Zhao, while I admit I wasnât completely in the right, they also had some part in this matter.â Qin Luo said somewhat angrily, âThey insulted Panpan, clearly not respecting me at all. Furthermore, I came all the way from my Qin Order to attend this auction. Shopkeeper Zhao, it wouldnât look too good if you prevent me from entering outside the door.â
Used to being arrogant, Qin Luo wasnât willing to plead with others. However, he didnât want to offend Shopkeeper Zhao either. As long as Shopkeeper Zhao judged this incident fairly, he would forget about it...
