The Darling of Heaven Owns a Rip-off Shop
Chapter 778 - 47: Heavenly Master and the Former Slacker 47
"What trouble could there possibly be? Look at them, a group of kids and women, and a grown man who seems quite weak. Weak? I give one swipe and you might just die!" Luo Peng was translating this part when he heard them sneering at him from the other side, and he was so angry that he almost howled. The sudden change of tone in the last sentence almost made Wu Yihao and Liang Bing burst out laughing.
"If you’re smart, listen to me. These people aren’t ones you can mess with. Send them off early. We’re just a few people away from completing this year’s task, don’t create additional problems."
"Wouldn’t sending these people do the trick?"
"Are you pigs? I said, don’t mess with these people, they’re too much to handle!" Bai Yue’s voice was full of exaggerated gestures, "Don’t get any ideas about them, treat them well and send them off tomorrow. Got it!"
Footsteps were heard again.
"Old Wu stormed off, looking furious," Bai Yue said.
"What do we do? Are we listening to Old Wu and sending them off?" Luo Peng mimicked Uncle Jiang’s voice.
"Listen to him for what? The old fool. He’s jealous that our two families completed more tasks than him and got more elixir."
"But, we really shouldn’t cause more trouble. Oh well, let’s not go after that wife anymore."
"Then let’s deal with these people and offer them to the master."
"There are six of them, can we at least get one if we take care of it for you? Otherwise, I’ll holler about it tomorrow and everyone will want a share."
"Fine, fine. Then bring our family a sack of rice, a sack of flour, and a piglet tomorrow morning." This was Aunt Jiang’s voice.
"No problem."
"They’re done talking; they’ve left," Bai Yue said.
Liang Bing glanced around the room with a strange look before speaking up, "A sack of rice, a sack of flour, plus a piglet for one of us, so the question is, who among us is worth that much?"
"Your focus is really unique," Cui Wenyan twitched her lips, "I thought you’d ask what master they’re talking about?"
"That’s just how he is," Wu Yihao twitched his lips too, "So now I kind of understand why you and the Old Fox Grandmaster clicked back then. You’re a peculiar one, even in reincarnation, still the same."
Liang Bing pondered for a moment, suddenly feeling like his junior’s words actually made some sense.
"What should we do now, Auntie? If it weren’t for you being here, we would definitely have sneaked away, but since Auntie’s so formidable, we can’t just leave you behind." Wu Yihao clenched his fist, "From their conversation, we can tell they’ve harmed people before, just unsure how many they’ve hurt and what kind of people they were."
"You’re quite good at borrowing power from others, aren’t you?" Cui Wenyan thought for a moment, amused, and used a saying to describe Wu Yihao’s behavior.
"How can you say that? Auntie is so powerful, making a grand impact. I’m just a sidekick cheering on the sidelines, not even worthy of borrowing power," Wu Yihao glared at Cui Wenyan and replied seriously.
Cui Wenyan: "..." Why hadn’t she noticed before how skilled her desk mate was at buttering up?
"Auntie, what should we do next?" Liang Bing, with bright shining eyes, looked at Tianmiao. Somehow, with Tianmiao around, there was nothing to fear. The excitement of events over the past two days was thrilling. He loved it!
"Play it by ear. Let’s see what they plan to do tomorrow. Alright, you all go back to sleep now. We’ll talk more tomorrow." Tianmiao waved her hand, "The no-prize guessing game is over."
