2988 Tan Haotian
“Cooperate?” Feng Jiu’s lips twitched slightly: “There’s nothing I can cooperate with you.”
“Hehe, Young Mistress Feng, don’t refuse me too quickly. Just listen to me first.” He smiled and looked at her, then said: “I know that Young Mistress Feng comes from an extraordinary background, and your ability is great. But in the mere land of Cardinal Point City, it’s not enough to represent anything. In comparison to your Celestial level strength, Old Tan feels that we can use the opportunity to spread the word about Young Mistress Feng’s alchemy skills and Venerable Rank Alchemist position.”
He picked up his cup of wine and took a sip, then played with the wine in his hand and said: “And my auction house can help Young Mistress Feng promote her position as Venerable Rank Alchemist and push Young Mistress Feng to a higher level. What does Young Mistress Feng think?”
“Not much.” Feng Jiu drank the wine and said: “If there is nothing else, I shall take my leave first.” She said lightly and stood up after she put down the cup of wine. Then she flicked her robe and walked out.
!!
Upon seeing this, the man stood up and said: “I will walk you out!”
Feng Jiu stopped and looked sideways at the man who was striding forward and saw him smiling as he spoke: “Even if we can’t cooperate, we can still be friends.” With that, he made a gesture and escorted her out.
When they walked out, the man smiled and said: “By the way, the man who was sitting next to Young Mistress Feng was just diagnosed with heart palpitations and is still in a coma. His guard has already notified his family.”
“I don’t know him, what’s the use in telling me this?” Feng Jiu said calmly. When she came outside, she saw Elder Mei waiting in the spirit deer carriage. She nodded slightly to the people around her and said: “Farewell.”
When he saw Feng Jiu step away, his eyes moved slightly and he said: “My name is Tan Haotian.”
Upon hearing those words, Feng Jiu paused slightly but didn’t look back. Instead, she walked towards the spirit deer carriage.
Elder Mei got off the spirit deer carriage and glanced at Tan Haotian, then he placed a small step stool for Feng Jiu to get onto the carriage. He giggled while he did this: “Young Mistress, are you causing others to fall in love with you again? If the one in the mansion saw the way this one is looking at you, I think he would probably start a fight with him.”
Feng Jiu cast a sideways glance at him: “Have you met the one in the mansion?” After she stepped onto the carriage and sat down, Elder Mei also stepped onto the carriage and drove it away.
“I’ve met him, I have met both of you before I entered the mansion.” Elder said with a smile: “The two of you are a good match. But I am curious, the two of you actually haven’t celebrated your nuptials?”
Feng Jiu had leaned back in the carriage and closed her eyes to rest. But when she heard this, she opened her eyes and looked at Elder Mei through the curtain and said: “You are quite nosey, it seems that you are too idle.”
“Ahem.” Elder Mei coughed lightly and changed the subject. He asked: “Young Mistress, did you buy anything at the auction?”
“Mmmm, I bought a few items.” She closed her eyes and said lightly.
“Young Mistress, there are some people tailing us, please sit securely. I will speed up and shake them off.” Elder Mei said, and the speed of the spirit deer carriage accelerated.
When she heard this, Feng Jiu said: “This is a street, don’t drive too fast lest you hit someone. Slow down and head out of the city.”
“Yes!” Elder Mei responded. The speed of the carriage slowed down and he drove all the way out of the city. Once they had reached the road outside the city, he stopped the spirit deer carriage and asked: “Young Mistress, they have caught up with us. They don’t seem to be in the same group. Do you want to come out and take a look?”
“Just deal with it cleanly.” Feng Jiu said. She hadn’t planned on going out.
