Chapter 358 The Honest Man
The Understated Dragon Lord
Aiden was still fumingâthis country boy had the nerve to dismiss her!
"Aiden, is our bet still on?" Daniel asked with a chuckle.
"Yes, of course, it's on! Even though you're a jerk, your money's real. Iâm betting with you because
of the cash in your account," Aiden replied.
Pointing to a row of shelves on the left, she said, "But you can only pick from this row."
Aiden wasn't one to suffer a loss easily. She had directed him to a shelf filled with common herbsâ
nothing of significant value. That way, even if she lost the bet, her loss wouldn't be substantial. But
deep down, she was confident she wouldn't lose. Even if this country boy had found a high-quality
He Shou Wu, it was only worth five millionâfar from 150 million.
Daniel glanced at the indicated row of shelves and couldnât help laughing. The very herb he wanted
was on that shelf.
Seeing Daniel's laughter, Aiden's suspicion was piqued. "What're you laughing at?"
"I'm laughing at Aiden!"
"At me?" Aiden's face darkened as she snapped, "I knew you were laughing at me! What about?"
"I'm laughing because the more stingy Aiden is, the bigger loss sheâll suffer. When you lose, donât
cry because I wonât offer you a tissue. I just love seeing beautiful women cry. The sadder you are,
the more beautiful it looks!"
"Iâm not going to lose! When you lose, donât even think about reneging on that 100 million. If you
dare to try and weasel out of it, I won't let you leave Herbal Loon!"
"Rest assured, Aiden, I'm a man who honors his bets. Since we've made the bet, I wonât back out.
It's just one hundred million, right? It's merely change; I donât care about it."
With that, Daniel pointed at the same row of shelves Aiden had pointed to earlier, confirming, "You
said this row, right? If I win, I can pick any herb from this row."
"Yes, that row!" Aiden confirmed.
"Within your Herbal Loon, there's an herb that's invaluable. One of them is in this stainless steel
basin, and the other on the shelf you just pointed out. So, Aiden, if you regret letting me take all
your valuable herbs in one fell swoop, you can back out now and point me to a different shelf."
Daniel spoke nothing but the absolute truth but Aiden didn't see it that way. She thought the country
bumpkin was bluffing her. So she said with a smile, âAre you trying to trick me, country boy? You
think Iâm a gullible three-year-old girl?â
"Ah, Aiden, I'm telling the truth and you donât believe me? Itâs hard to be a man, even harder to be
an honest and upright one."
"Heh," Aiden couldn't help but let out a cold laugh, then rolled her eyes at Daniel.
