Sigh, this also originated with the old father’s recent determination to have the second young master get married. Ah no, it’s to have the second young master marry a daughter-in-law into the family.
Yes, this Helian Jiao Er, he could only say that this person really knew how to conduct herself.
Helian Jiao Er saw that he stopped, so she motioned for her maid to send the item she was holding in her hand over to him.
Without looking, Uncle Zhang already knew what that item was. He raised his lips into a smile, yet didn’t go forward to receive the item at all.
Helian Jiao Er, seeing that he didn’t take the money, knit her long shapely eyebrows.
“My Lady, what do I do with this?” That maid hadn’t seen someone not want money before.
Helian Jiao Er cursed him silently for failing to appreciate her kindness as the corners of her mouth curled. “Uncle Zhang rejected it because the amount was too little?”
“Miss Jiao Er has misunderstood this servant’s meaning.” Uncle Zhang raised his head, neither indignantly, nor meekly. “Maybe Miss Helian still isn’t familiar with those of us at Profound Heavens. People in the armament world all know that those of us at Profound Heavens don’t accept these.”
Helian Jiao Er gripped the handkerchief in her hand exceedingly tightly and responded again. “I really don’t have other ideas, and only wanted to buy an armament that your boss has made personally. The matter of price can be discussed satisfactorily.”
Uncle Zhang laughed. “In regards to the people that can have our boss personally make an armament, money is one condition, but ability with armaments is also necessary.”
“In terms of this condition, you certainly don’t have to worry about it!” Helian Jiao Er hadn’t spoken and the maid standing by her side already opened her mouth. Contained within the arrogance was a concentrated smugness. “My Lady is actually the Helian family’s successor, White Academy’s superior student, the genius everyone admires. Not to mention these ordinary people, even those prestigious armament families within the capital may not necessarily win against My Lady!”
Uncle Zhang glanced at that maid and suddenly smiled. “I forgot to say the third condition. It is also a condition that Profound Heavens has recently added.”
“What? No matter what you say, My Lady can still fulfill it!” The maid looked at Helian Jiao Er’s complexion. Seeing the praise written within the light in her eyes, her words became even more haughty.
Uncle Zhang’s voice was smooth and steady as he spoke, pausing after each word. “We at Profound Heavens will also not sell to those who are arrogant and haughty.”
After hearing that, the expression of smugness on the ends of the maid’s mouth abruptly stiffened. She couldn’t help but turn towards Helian Jiao Er and looked over.
Sure enough, Helian Jiao Er’s complexion was even more unsightly than hers. That little face which originally feigned cordialness, during that split second, became incomparably malevolent! It seemed as if it was making the utmost effort to resist great waves of rage!”
“What the hell!”
Helian Jiao Er didn’t immediately flare-up until after Uncle Zhang already left. She fiercely threw out the handkerchief in her hand!
“My Lady, please don’t get angry.” The maid hastily said. “The master had already gotten in touch with the person in charge of Profound Heavens early on. This manager must not have known who you are. That’s why he dared to be rude to you in this way. Wait until we reach the capital, the master will give you the armament to bring back. At that time, we’ll see if this manager could still be well-regarded by that boss of his. Who in the world do they think they’ve provoked!”
After hearing the maid’s words, Helian Jiao Er deeply breathed in a breath of air, and seemed to have been placated quite a bit. “A group of country bumpkins without eyes!”
“My Lady is right.” The maid by her side nodded fiercely and at the same time, and couldn’t help but breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, she remedied the matter promptly. Otherwise, if the lady’s temper flared, she also won’t spare her helpers.
Helian Jiao Er straightened her cuffs a bit. “Let’s go back. Wait until we have reached the capital before speaking of this again.”
People from Profound Heavens had eyes without pupils like this, sooner or later they would regret this day!
How could she have known that her adversary certainly weren’t people who ‘had eyes without pupils’, but rather, they simply didn’t consider selling armaments to her at all.
There was a boy servant who even asked after he watched Uncle Zhang. “Uncle Zhang, isn’t that the Defense Division’s Second Miss?”
Uncle Zhang glanced at that little servant. “Don’t ask about the things you shouldn’t inquire about.”
The boy stroked the bridge of his nose. “I didn’t want to make inquiries. I only wanted to ask about what she said to you. She looks really pretty close up.”
“Is that not making inquiries?” Uncle Zhang’s voice was neither quick nor slow. “Fine. It’s about time to go back. The boss is also here. She met Cheng Xiong and was quite dissatisfied with the Cheng family.”
The boy’s pupils shook. “The boss? She’s here? ! Where?”
