“Daddy,please stop. It hurts! It really hurts!” The girl dodged and cried at the samething. Second Old Liu meant business when he was beating someone. It was asthough he was using all his strength and truly meant what he said by beatingher to death.
“Hurts! Ididn’t say you can say you hurt! I didn’t say anything. Who said you candodge?” Second Old Liu scolded her as he increased the strength of his arm. Helooked like he was going to eat her alive.
“Woooo…wooooo……” The girl dared not speak anymore, nor did she dare beg for mercy anymore. Just sobbing quietly. Her pitiful look touched Cheng Xiao Xiao deep downinside.
Someone likethat should not be a father.
“Stopalready!” It seemed Cheng Xiao Xiao had some ideas. With her face darkened, sheshouted out coldly.
“I ambeating my own daughter, what’s it to you? Get the h.e.l.l out if you have nothingbetter to do!” Shouted at Cheng Xiao Xiao, Second Old Liu was about to resumebeating the girl.
Cheng XiaoXiao stepped up and grabbed Second Old Liu by his arm and looking all the morecolder.
“What if Isaid I will buy her?” Cheng Xiao Xiao’s expression and tone had changed and shemeant business.
“What didyou just say?” Second Old Liu asked again with his eyes widened, as though hedidn’t believe in what she said.
She was justa young girl herself, how dare to spill out words like that?
He was quiteaware of the wealthy families in the area but had never seen her before. Hecouldn’t tell how much truth was in her words.
“I said Iwill buy your daughter,” said Cheng Xiao Xiao coldly. This time Second Old Liuheard her clearly, and his manner improved instantly.
He just losta customer, he must treat this one nicely.
He didn’tcare who he was selling his daughter to. As long as they could afford to paythem, they would be his VIPs.
“Are youserious?” Confirming with her again, Second Old Liu’s eyes started to beam.
He reallyneed money right now. They have been out of food at home and were about to gochew on tree barks and tree leaves.
So if ChengXiao Xiao was going to buy his daughter, he would not let the opportunity slipaway.
“Of course Imeant what I said. Why would I lie to you?” Cheng Xiao Xiao casted him anothercold glance. She was entirely a cold beauty now.
One couldn’tbe nice to someone like that, otherwise, he just might try to take advantage ofyou.
“Ten taels!I won’t take anything less!” Second Old Liu suddenly set a price with a verydetermined look, as though he was sure Cheng Xiao Xiao would buy his daughter.
Cheng XiaoXiao looked at the girl with her tear-covered face and thought about it longand hard before producing eleven taels from her top and said, “I am giving you11 taels. You have sold her to me and have nothing more to do with her fromthis point forward. Do you understand?”
“Yes, yes,anything you said, Miss!” Of course Second Old Liu was happy about the extraone tael, so he agreed with Cheng Xiao Xiao’s words.
He wouldn’teven take the cheap thing even if she was given to him. He barely has enough moneyto stay afloat, he had no extra to keep her alive too!
“Hand overthe deed,” Cheng Xiao Xiao examined that Second Old Liu again and didn’t feelthat he could be trusted, so she asked for the deed. She didn’t want anyha.s.sles beyond that!
Second Old Liuquickly handed over the deed. Cheng Xiao Xiao took the deed from him and handedover the money.
As soon a.s.second Old Liu got the money, he left immediately without caring about anythingelse.
