Chapter 50 - Framing And Cheating (2/2)

Moreover, Master Zhou was the most handsome man of the younger generation of the Huo Family.

He was second only to his sixth uncle, Huo Ci.

Everyone reached a consensus that this was Ling Sheng’s tactic to seduce Huo Xuanzhou. She had intentionally hurled his pricey bracelet into the river to achieve her goal.

“Miss, if you insist on not paying, I will have to call the police.” Huo Xuanzhou stared at her as his lips curled up coldly. “As for Palpitate, did you see what it looked like?”

“How could I not have seen it? Palpitate is my family heirloom. Since you have thrown it into the river, I should be the one calling the police!” Ling Sheng was enraged.

“Does anyone believe that she has Palpitate? She’s a village girl who knows the kind of man she has seduced!” Huo Xuanzhou, who had not expected her to be this strong-headed, continued mocking her. “Don’t think you can become a phoenix just by flying high onto a branch. A chicken will always be a chicken.”

“You are right, sir. Don’t think that once a beast gets the crown, it will become the king. A monkey in a human outfit will show its beast-like nature even more.” Ling Sheng chastised him in her heart. He was the chicken, and his whole family was a bunch of chickens.

Huo Xuanzhou was so incensed that his face turned ashen and the expression in his eyes became diabolical.

That sharp-tongued little slut!

She had called him a beast!

“Palpitate? Are you joking? Palpitate is considered a high-end diamond in the whole world. Who does she think she is? How could she even mention Palpitate? This is hilarious!”

“Exactly! A family heirloom? I remember that Palpitate was auctioned off a month ago for 200 million US dollars.”

“Is this woman mentally sound? She dares to say anything she wants. This is indeed hilarious!”

“Right! She even dares to spurt nonsense here. She really treats us as ignorant, uncultured people. I think she said that on purpose just because of her inability to pay Master Zhou.”

…

The female spectators surrounded her, shooting mocking and belittling looks at Ling Sheng.

“Why is it so noisy?”

A magnetic, rich voice that invoked a cold, fearsome feeling in one spoke.

It was like a quiet, icy wind blowing down from a frosty mountain that had been sealed for 10,000 years, making one’s whole body shiver.
