Take it for yourself

How could Su Zimo fail to grasp the intent behind Ling Qiushui's words? He understood her true purpose even more, and his gaze became sharp as he looked at her. If this woman wanted to humiliate herself today, then he would fulfill her wish.

As Ling Qiushui faced Su Zimo's piercing eyes, she couldn't help but shiver. His gaze sent a cold shiver down her spine. However, Ling Qiushui composed herself and maintained a polite smile on her face.

"How many million taels of silver?" Su Zimo mockingly looked at Ling Qiushui. These shameless young ladies, they spent their parents' hard-earned money without any guilt. Even if they were making rice worms at home, they would still have the audacity to stand tall and talk arrogantly. "Miss Ling seems to care little about a few million taels of silver. So, buying the Silver Grass is not a problem. As for my daughter's illness, it has nothing to do with Miss Ling."

Su Zimo's tone was indifferent and composed, radiating an air of calmness that captivated everyone's attention.

Ling Qiushui's smile instantly faltered. Did she really not care? Did this woman truly not intend to help her daughter? But now...

"Owner, there are only three Silver Grass plants available each year. Is the owner really willing to give up? Or perhaps the owner didn't bring enough silver tickets?" Ling Qiushui looked at Su Zimo with a sinister smile. It was the latter. If Su Zimo had brought enough silver tickets, she would have undoubtedly bought those three Silver Grass plants.

She wanted to steal the limelight, huh? If she wanted to show off, then she should brace herself. Su Zimo didn't believe that this woman would have an easy time.

"I heard that Miss Ling is the fiancée chosen by the Holy Lord of Cloud City. So, let me ask Miss Ling, who dares to offer a higher price than you? After all, most of the people present here are merely relying on Cloud City for their livelihood," Su Zimo stated, his words holding a deeper meaning than if Ling Qiushui had said them herself.

In an instant, the smile on Ling Qiushui's face completely disappeared, and her body trembled slightly. How could things have deviated from her expectations? The people around began to discuss the matter. It could have significant implications. If Ling Qiushui had intentionally raised the price, it would damage the trust placed in the Mu family.

"Big brother, it seems that the situation has taken an unexpected turn. I'll go down and take a look," Mu Yunxuan said.

"Wait and see," Mu Yunxuan replied. He wanted to see how far she would go in her hatred.

"Big brother..."

Mu Yunhan wanted to say something, but he saw his sister and mother walking towards Ling Qiushui.

"What are they doing here?" A cold glint appeared in Mu Yunxuan's eyes, gradually revealing a chilling aura that was difficult to comprehend.

"Bright Moon Villa Master, what do you mean?" Ling Qiushui's eyes widened, her heart filled with shock. She didn't expect her words to have such weight. The Holy Lord was on the second floor, and if this matter escalated, she would not have a good outcome. She had initially planned to embarrass Su Zimo, but now it seemed like the tables had turned.

"Didn't Miss Ling ask knowingly?" Su Zimo looked at the dumbfounded Ling Qiushui with eyes filled with icy coldness. This woman had intended to humiliate her from the start!

The mention of the child made Su Ziyun unable to stay silent any longer. Ling Qiushui was the wife of the Holy Lord in Cloud City, so it would be beneficial to help her and establish a good relationship for the future.

"Owner, you settled in the capital of Haoyue Kingdom and lived alone with three children. Many people are curious about who the father of your child is," Su Ziyun suddenly spoke up. Jun Lintian's handsome face immediately darkened, and an aura of awe-inspiring power burst forth from his body. His eyes glared at Su Ziyun.

Su Ziyun's unexpected words immediately drew everyone's attention. They were more interested in the owner of Mingyue Mountain Villa's identity than in Ling Qiushui being the Holy Lord's wife.

"If Miss Su Ziyun snatched her sister's fiancé, causing her sister's disappearance without a trace, I would like to ask the owner of this estate, are you at ease?" Ling Qiushui sneered. She had brought up this matter in front of Wang Ye and so many people. No one could understand the pain in Su Ziyun's heart. Ling Qiushui was holding onto her pain, ensuring she could never recover.

"Do you have to humiliate yourself?" Jun Lintian's face turned gloomy, and his voice grew deeper. Through their previous encounters, he had realized that this woman was fearless. No matter how ruthless he was, she would be even more ruthless.

"Yes, Wangye," Su Ziyun trembled. The disdainful glances and mocking comments around her felt like daggers in her heart. No one could comprehend the pain she was experiencing. This matter had become an indelible stain on her life, yet she still loved the man in front of her deeply.

At that moment, a guard dressed in uniform hurriedly approached Jun Lintian and whispered something in his ear.

Disbelief flashed across Jun Lintian's face, and anger filled his slightly narrowed eyes.

Instantly, Jun Lintian stood up and ignored Su Ziyun as he quickly left the auction house.

"Wang Ye," Su Ziyun hurriedly followed. At that moment, she had no interest in watching the spectacle anymore. Nothing was more important than Jun Lintian.

Su Zimo coldly smiled. Jun Lintian, you're busy now.

"Big brother, Jun Lintian seems to be dealing with something urgent. Look at how anxious and angry he is," Mu Yunhan said.

"Whatever happens to him is not our concern. Go and prepare the three Silver Grass plants. Tomorrow, we will visit Bright Moon Villa."

"Just for a visit, big brother? Do we need to bring the Silver Grass plants along?" Mu Yunhan couldn't understand his eldest brother's intentions.

"Take them with you in the name of cooperation," Mu Yunxuan said, his tone leaving no room for argument.

"Yes, big brother," Mu Yunhan nodded and didn't press further.

"This girl, the Mu family's reputation has stood for a hundred years. While Qiushui is married into the family, she still possesses a childlike heart. It's understandable that she came to cause a scene. Don't you all agree?" Jun Zixi smiled, but her eyes held a coldness and contempt when she looked at Su Zimo.

"Eldest Princess, we pay our respects," everyone immediately stood up and respectfully greeted her. It showed the weight Jun Zixi's words carried. Despite being married into Cloud City for many years, she was still referred to as the "eldest princess" by outsiders.
