Chapter 2210 - 2210 He’s Back
2210 He’s Back
The space inside Zhen Bao Pavilion looked bigger than the outside.
The entire first floor was a large squarish exhibition hall. On the four walls, there were long cabinets decorated with white crystals. All sorts of treasures were intricately placed on them.
In the centermost position, there was a spiral staircase.
In front of the stairs was the cashier.
A middle-aged man stood there and looked like the person-in-charge.
Other than him, there were no other pageboys serving on the first floor. However, there were a dozen or so customers leisurely walking around, looking very casual.
According to what Xiao Ran said previously, this Zhen Bao Pavilion haS a backer, so even someone with the Eighth Deity’s status wouldn’t dare to easily offend them. It’s no wonder this place looks so carefree—they aren’t afraid that anybody will cause trouble. Only someone with a spoiled brain would offend Zhen Bao Pavilion.
Seeing Chu Liuyue and the rest walk in, everyone in the room looked over with various expressions.
Curiosity, inquisitiveness, contempt…
Chu Liuyue was going to walk to the side when she felt a solid gaze land on her.
Her heart tingled, and she looked up.
A woman decked in a light-green dress was looking at her.
This woman looked like she was in her twenties, with a curvy figure, looking clean and elegant. There was a faint arrogance in her face.
Chu Liuyue did not know her. However, the other party’s gaze made her feel strange.
“You’re Shangguan Yue?” she asked lightly.
Chu Liuyue nodded. “Yeah. May I know your—”
“Sister Yafeng, why are you greeting such a person?” Before that woman spoke, another young lady spoke from the side. When she spoke, her eyes were filled with impatience and annoyance as they scanned Chu Liuyue.
Chu Liuyue instantly understood. “So it’s Ms. Mu.”
Mu Yafeng glanced at that woman in disapproval. “Ms. Shangguan has outstanding talent as a Xuan Master. You can’t be this rude.”
As she spoke, she smiled faintly at Chu Liuyue. “I heard you broke the record, Ms. Shangguan. I admire you.”
Chu Liuyue raised her eyebrows slightly. “I’m just a mere Great King Xuan Master. I am still a distance away from a Grandmaster like Ms. Mu, I really can’t afford to be admired by you.”
That woman grunted lightly. “At least you know where you stand!”
Mu Yafeng glanced at her with warning and smiled apologetically. “Sorry, my younger sister has no intentions of offending you.”
“Even if she had no intentions, didn’t she already do it?” Xiao Ba crossed her arms and laughed lightly. “I really don’t know whether to say your younger sister has a mouth with no filter, or Ms. Mu, you can’t teach her well.”
Mu Yafeng and her sister’s expressions changed.
Chu Liuyue pulled Xiao Ba, smiled, and said, “Sorry, my Xiao Ba also has a straightforward personality.”
A sentence directly stumped the other party.
“We have something on and won’t disturb you.” As Chu Liuyue spoke, she pulled Xiao Ba to the side. “Xiao Ba, look here. Is there anything you want?”
The few people walked to the side.
“How arrogant!” that woman exclaimed softly with indignance.
“That’s enough. We didn’t come here to quarrel,” said Mu Yafeng with knitted brows.
That woman sensed that she seemed to be really angry, so she kept quiet.
Mu Yafeng walked to the cashier in the middle. The anger on her face disappeared and was replaced with an elegant smile. “Lord Ming, I heard that your Second Boss came back?”
