Qingning couldn't help but retort in his heart: "Can't you be more professional in disguise? If you're not blind, you can tell that you're a girl, okay?

The beauty was dressed as a man, and her figure was slender and graceful. Looking at her, one could tell that she truly had a unique taste. Many of them were stupefied by what they saw.

"It must be hard for this sister. She had been busy half her life and she had even jumped up from her sickbed at night to ask the beauty to steal the medicine for her fiance!"

"How urgent is it?" Qingning's face revealed curiosity, as though he was ready to talk about it.

Thirty thousand gold, telling a concubine like Lady Lin to take it out still didn't take half her life.

As expected, Lu Mengyan bit her lips and said: "My elder brother has suffered heavy injuries in the past few days, and some tendons and bones were damaged. I hope that young master will …"

Originally, she was also here to try her luck with Myriad Herbs Pavilion.

"So that's how it is!" Qingning's face was full of sympathy, just when everyone thought that she would give the medicine to this weak girl.

Her phoenix eyes swept across Lu Mengyan with disdain, and she changed the subject: "But my family is rich, and we broke a leg fighting for food today, so we urgently need this medicine!"

Wealth... Such a common dog name.

All of a sudden, Lu Mengyan was rejected in such an embarrassed manner, and only one person squeezed out, "You …"

"You, a man, bullying a weak girl... This is too much! " Hongjin hurriedly stepped forward. He looked at the young man who looked so pure and refined, and couldn't find the words to curse.

In the arena, many of those who pitied the weak began to discuss amongst themselves.

"If you have money, then buy. If you don't have money, then forget about it. Do you really need me to teach you such a simple principle?" Qingning slowly stood up and walked in front of Lu Mengyan, her tone as cold as ice: "If you want to talk about this matter of men bullying women, then, I really can't not bully you!"

In the end, her tone became even more serious, and the bridgemen fell silent.

Lu Mengyan looked at her with a little embarrassment, as a hint of happiness suddenly flashed past his eyes. "This Myriad Herbs Pavilion was settled on the spot, a single piece of cloth from you could actually take out this thirty thousand silver …"

She made a show of reaching for her purse.

Hongjin walked to her side, and vigilantly watched Qingning's movements.

Qingning was facing towards Lu Mengyan, with her back facing towards everyone. Her sudden movement directly blocked Lu Mengyan, who was facing the side, and also blocked everyone's view.

"What a coincidence, I have exactly thirty thousand taels of silver with me!"

Qingning narrowed his eyes, as if he didn't see the master or servant's movements, and extended his hand, taking out an object wrapped in an embroidered towel.

Suddenly, just at this moment, Lu Mengyan extended his hand out and grabbed the object in her hand.

Qingning's gaze turned cold, and with a flick of his sleeve, he swept her out.

Moments later, the delicate young girl fell to the ground with a mournful sound. The ribbon in her hair was pulled apart and her silk-like black hair flowed down.

Hongjin cried out involuntarily, "Why did you steal my Young Miss' things!"

This sound was like a clap of thunder.

In the arena, the elders who were full of pity rushed over.

"This brat is too much!" You actually dared to openly steal from that little girl in front of us! "

Lu Mengyan's fall was of the highest standard. Her long sleeves fell to the ground, a tragic sight.

Seeing how the crowd had surrounded Qingning, one of them shouted angrily: "Beat him, beat him to death and collect his corpse!"

The 'heroes', who were filled with righteous indignation and wanted to 'save the beauty', could not wait to kill the youth with their eyes. The servants who had received the orders had already squeezed their way to the front.

Qingning then took out an item that was wrapped in an embroidered cloth. His expression was still indifferent, and there was even a hint of a cold arc at the corner of his mouth. "You said that this thing is yours?"

This question made the others even more furious.

"The handkerchief on it was embroidered by my family's maidservants two days ago!" Lu Mengyan weakly stood up with the support of the "incomparably flustered" Hongjin.

Although she didn't answer directly, her words made everyone even more convinced that this object was hers.

The rough uncle on the right rubbed his fists together and said, "Brat, return that thing to me immediately. If you kneel down and admit your mistake, I'll …"

Before she could finish speaking, the young man flicked his sleeve. It was unknown when she did so.

The wild man had already knelt down with a thump, but her expression was still the same as ever. Her phoenix eyes looked at Lu Mengyan for a moment, "Here, could it be that this is the silver notes you use to buy medicine?"

What was the girl's face made of?

Every time he told a lie, he would put on an expression as though he had been wronged for life, so he decided to peel off and study the ingredients one day.

Lu Mengyan could not help but step back when he saw this gaze. With a face full of fear, he said, "Yes, it's precisely the thirty thousand taels used to buy medicine!"

Her tone was too confident. Who told this young man to be so stupid? Just now, she had even made it clear how much silver she had brought with her.

"You are such a shameless person. You stole something, yet you are still pressing on her!"

"That's right, he's too shameless!"

"Look how much you've forced her to the point that she can't even stand!"

One after another of denouncing voices came out, as someone came over to snatch the thing in Qingning's hands.

With Hongjin's support, Lu Mengyan still looked to be on the verge of collapse.

The trace of pride in his eyes was quickly concealed.

Qingning saw everything clearly. He turned to the side and threw the things in his hands onto the stage, causing the handkerchief to float to the ground. Only a black shadow was left among the crowd.

The auctioneer, who was originally standing quietly to watch the show, subconsciously opened the lid of the box.

His surroundings were brightly lit, and the inky jade inside the box began to glow brilliantly. Everyone was momentarily stunned. Clearly, what was inside the box was not silver notes.

When he turned his head to look at Lu Mengyan, his eyes were filled with an indescribable rage.

Lu Mengyan's body weakened as he forced out: "This is my family's inherited treasure, its price is definitely above thirty thousand silvers!"

The grandfathers hesitated. The credibility of the words wasn't high, but the girl's expression didn't seem fake at all.

Qingning could not help but sneer. This ability to invert black and white was not just for show.

The auctioneer on the stage used the jade seal in his hand to confirm three times, and then quickly pressed down the mechanism on his body, holding the jade seal in his hand, he knelt down towards Qingning and shouted: "This subordinate pays his respect to Pavilion Master!"

Clearly, he had used some sort of secret magic, and his voice echoed out through the pavilion.

The people who were originally surrounding Qingning, immediately retreated in shock.

The shopkeeper and his subordinates rushed over and kneeled down and said: "This subordinate greets Pavilion Master!"

Soon after, all the people on the various floors in the pavilion saluted in unison: "We greet the Pavilion Master!"

His voice reverberated continuously throughout the entire Myriad Herbs Pavilion.

Lu Mengyan's face instantly became as pale as paper, and her entire body softened. She stood there holding onto her, not knowing what to do.
