The Young Marquis Who is Blind Yet Clear-Minded (6)

"Dear guest, please come in." A handsome man with a warm smile called out to him from the doorway.

"You… I…" At that moment, Xiao Anning's mind was blank. Where exactly was he? Who was this person in front of him? How could there be such a grandiose shop in such a wilderness like this?

Xiao Anning looked up and saw that magical couplet.

Purchase on credit allowed; payment had to be prompt or else you would die. He saw the top scroll that indicated that this wasn't a rip-off shop that simply got people wondering and mumbling to themselves if it really was a rip-off shop or not. Why did he feel like it was just a clumsy attempt to conceal a truth that would eventually be revealed?

If this wasn't a rip-off shop, then the boss of this shop was a really interesting person.

"Sir, please. Our boss is waiting for you," Dong Xiao said again, urging Xiao Anning to follow him. "Those who see this lamp and come to our shop are all fated ones," he said.

At that moment, Xiao Anning even felt as though everything he was seeing was an illusion, or perhaps he had passed away long ago and was now merely encountering the Soul Bringers. But were all Soul Bringers so good-looking?

With Dong Xiao urging him to enter, Xiao Anning took a step forward and walked through the doorway to enter the shop. Then he saw a woman. Though he hadn't been able to see a single thing since he was a child, he thought that this woman was possibly the best-looking person in the world.

"Young Marquis." The woman smiled. Her smile was so captivating, but her voice was extremely lazy.

"You… know me?" Xiao Anning wondered aloud.

"Have a seat." Tian Miao gestured for Xiao Anning to sit down. And after he sat down, she said, "Since you have come to my shop, why don't you buy something? I sell everything here, including wishes."

Once again, Xiao Anning froze in shock. He was stunned by the woman's words.

"Anything at all? Including wishes." Xiao Anning asked. This shop was simply amazing, was it not? From the moment he was able to see again up to this very moment where he could purchase wishes.

Tian Miao nodded and said, "Any wish. Any wish at all. But I can only sell you one wish, so you'd better give it some thought."

"Then for me, what price would I have to pay?" Xiao Anning asked somewhat solemnly. If this was true, that he could purchase any wish, then it wasn't something that money could buy. But if he had to pay with the thing he cherished most in the world in exchange for a wish, he would never agree to such a deal.

"Naturally, it's a price that you can afford to pay. Don't worry. It won't be any of those family members you cherish." Tian Miao smiled.

Xiao Anning was shocked. Could the other party actually read his thoughts?

"So, do you want to purchase a wish? You can put it on credit." Tian Miao's voice was indescribably alluring. Not a single person could help but lose themselves in it.

Could wishes really be purchased? If that was really possible, then…

Xiao Anning suddenly smiled, and his smile was so gentle, so bright.

"I wish for my family to be happy and healthy. I will just purchase this wish!" Xiao Anning didn't even really think about it first before blurting out this wish. "If such a wish will cost me my life, I hope you will come to collect my debt after all my beloved family members have peacefully passed away."

Faced with such a request from Xiao Anning, Tian Miao couldn't help but let out a soft laugh. What a... good child…

"All right, then, as you… wish." Tian Miao's lazy voice suddenly became airy, and it slowly washed over him.

When Kong Hou heard Xiao Anning's wish, a look of puzzlement flashed across her face. But she didn't utter a single word and just stood quietly off to the side.
