As night fell, Ling Chuxi and the others prepared to go downstairs after eating. However, at the stairs, they encountered someone who was in an argument.
“You ugly thing, you want to eat the Overlord’s meal when you have no money?” The waiter was scolding a woman in an aggressive manner.
Ling Chuxi followed the direction the waiter was pointing and saw a woman. The woman had a graceful figure and her eyes were lively. However, her face made the group of people behind Ling Chuxi suck in a deep breath. This woman was very ugly, really very ugly. She had two thick eyebrows and two hideous scars on her face that almost split her face into three parts. It was a ghastly sight. Facing the waiter’s scolding, she could only turn her head in embarra.s.sment and said in a low voice,””I don’t want to eat the Overlord meal. I just forgot to bring money today.”
“Who’s going to believe you! Ugly monster! I shouldn’t have let you in just now!” The waiter’s face was full of disgust as he waved his hand in disgust.”It’s not that easy to eat Overlord food! We don’t even want people like you to stay and work for us to cover your meals. Tainting the guest’s eyes …”
“Alright! Shut up. I’ve paid for her meal!” Ling Chuxi sternly stopped the waiter from continuing to insult her. When she saw the face of the woman in front of her, her heart ached slightly. It made her think of another woman. The prideful but scarred woman mocked Qin Xueyi. Whenever she thought of that woman, Ling Chuxi’s heart would ache. When she was young, she had been through a disaster and escaped to the Qing-Yun realm. In order to save her family, she had gone through many hards.h.i.+ps. As a woman, she had lost her most beautiful side. The woman in front of her was also disfigured, which made Ling Chuxi feel very uncomfortable in her heart. Seeing someone humiliate her like this, Ling Chuxi naturally could not bear it.
“Young master, this …” The waiter’s expression changed, but he quickly put on a smile and bowed.”It’s this lady’s good fortune to meet you, young master. Thank you.” When the waiter saw the Dao origin stone Ling Chuxi handed over, he changed the way he addressed the woman from ugly to young lady.
After Ling Chuxi paid the money, she did not say anything more. She just smiled at the woman and then went downstairs with the others.
To Ling Chuxi, this was as easy as lifting a finger. She would even throw it to the back of her mind very quickly.
However, the woman stood in the same spot for a long time, quietly watching Ling Chuxi’s back. Then, her eyes burst out with brilliance.
Ling Chuxi did not know that her smile today would forever be engraved in a person’s heart, forever …
Night had just fallen, and several rows of red lanterns were hung outside the doors of Dao An merchant a.s.sociation, creating a festive atmosphere.
“Please wait.” Ling Chuxi and the others had just reached the door when they were stopped by a guard.
“What are you doing?” Qi Tian and Lu Weidong put on the airs of hedonistic sons at the same time. They tilted their necks and sized up the guard with slanted eyes as they asked impatiently.
“You guys should also be here to partic.i.p.ate in the auction, right? this auction is different from the past, you need to pay a deposit before you can enter.” The guard said courteously.
“How much?” Ling Chuxi asked as she took out her spatial ring. In order to prevent people from bidding maliciously, many auction houses asked to pay a deposit, which was not a big deal.
“I’ll do it, I’ll do it. You don’t have much money, so leave the insurance to me. ” Lu Weidong scuttled in front of Ling Chuxi and said generously. As he spoke, he even raised the s.p.a.ce ring on his finger, looking extremely flashy.
He had a deep understanding of Qing Han of the black Zen Supreme’s residence. Elder Qiu and elder PU definitely did not have any money. As for Ling Chuxi and Qi Tian, seeing how they were all smiles when they received his gifts the last time, they probably did not have it any better than them.
