Chapter 290: Come to the Door (8)
His Highness Prince Jin… how could he… Liu Chengfeng found it hard to believe.
Didn't the rumors say that His Highness Prince Jin was cruel and heartless?
How could he care so much about a person, and a young man at that…
Liu Potian stepped forward, shielding Liu Chengfeng behind him.
"Your Highness, hand that person over, or it will be awkward for everyone if it gets brought before His Majesty."
"It's you who will look awkward, I don't care," Nangong Liuyun sneered.
"Do you think I'd be afraid of you filing a false complaint?"
Liu Potian felt a knot in his chest.
He knew reasoning was impossible, so the only way to solve this problem was through force!
"Since that's the case, let Heaven decide!"
Liu Potian, having felt wary of Nangong Liuyun since being pushed away just now, suggested, "Let Chengfeng compete against this young man.
Let's see who wins and who loses.
Whoever wins gets the green crystal!"
This was clearly an unequal treaty.
The green crystal obviously belonged to Su Luo, and if she lost, it would disappear without a trace.
How could Nangong Liuyun let Su Luo sign such an unequal treaty?
He was about to mock them when Su Luo pulled him back.
Liu Chengfeng slandered her, and Old Master Liu aggressively brought people to attack.
Su Luo, who always held grudges, wouldn't let them off so easily.
Even if she couldn't win by force, she would scheme to make them cry without tears.
Su Luo smiled nonchalantly, looking at Old Master Liu, the mockery in her eyes so obvious: "Your calculations are truly excellent.
If you lose, there's no loss at all.
If you win, not only can you get revenge on me, but you can also get the green crystal for free.
This is truly a business that only profits.
Old Master Liu is so good at calculating.
It's no wonder you were able to build up the vast property of the Liu Manor.
Admirable, truly admirable."
Her words, a mix of praise and sarcasm, made Old Master Liu almost unable to lift his head.
He had been in seclusion for ten years, but he didn't expect that as soon as he came out, he would immediately suffer such a great setback, losing face to a mere young man, with no dignity left.
He even suspected that Prince Jin's Manor was somehow incompatible with him.
Why were these two so sharp-tongued, their lips as if coated with poison, their words incredibly harsh?
A satisfied smile curved on Nangong Liuyun's lips.
His Luo girl never disappointed him.
He gazed at Su Luo with beaming eyes, his peach blossom eyes glistening with intoxicating tenderness.
If an ordinary woman were to glance at them, she would likely be captivated for life.
But Su Luo acted as if she didn't see, pushing him aside, finding him in her way.
Nangong Liuyun sighed helplessly.
Why was his Luo girl so difficult to pursue?
Seeing Old Master Liu glaring angrily at his Luo girl, Nangong Liuyun was displeased.
He cleared his throat with a few grunts, raising an eyebrow and looking at him sideways, "What? Liu Potian, are you getting angry out of embarrassment?"
Old Master Liu felt a mouthful of blood stuck in his throat, forcing his face red.
Nangong Liuyun, however, acted as if he didn't see, and said lightly, "Since that's not the case, let's compete fairly.
The green crystal in Su Yun's hand is worth fifty thousand gold coins.
Your Liu Manor is not poor.
Take out fifty thousand gold coins for the wager.
Whoever wins gets both the crystal and the gold coins.
That's fair."
Liu Potian thought about it.
Indeed, that was the case.
Moreover, he had sensed it just now; the young man opposite him didn't have any spiritual energy at all.
He was completely a little good-for-nothing.
How could he compare to his precious grandson?
