“Six Prince, why are you still so conceited? Do you really think that all the women in the world like you?”
Familiar voices rang from the door, like demons whispering, making the Six Prince tremble with his muscles tightening and his expression complicated after his confidence had been restored.
Until Chen Mo appeared at the doorway, his eyes widened dramatically, "It's you?".
Even during Tian Mo's teachings, Song Xiu had begun to doubt his own charm due to Chen Mo's influence, and even considered becoming his disciple for a time.
He always remembers this, especially after returning to Ji'an City, he wanted to find Chen Mo and compete with him.
However, compared to these, the long-suppressed resentment surged forth upon seeing Chen Mo.
“You son of a bitch, you actually deceived me and now even dare to come looking for me?”
Song Xiu quickly moved forward, grabbing Chen Mo's collar with both hands as if to release the accumulated anger of the past few days at that moment.
Seeing the commotion, Chu Ruomeng quickly stepped back a few steps, fearing that she might be dragged into it.
A month of hundreds of Qingshi Ling stone, what kind of nonsense is that.
“Six Prince, I know you are very eager, but you don't need to rush”
Chen Mo smiled, not taking Song Xiu's anger to heart, and pushed him away before sitting down at the table next to him.
The door of the private room was open, and from inside, one could see the corner of the stairs. Anyone who came up could see clearly. Chen Mo didn't close the door and didn't let Chu Ruomeng close it either. He waved for her to leave after a gesture, and then turned to Song Xiu.
“Hmph, we still have some accounts to settle”
Song Xiu sat dissatisfied across from Chen Mo, still showing a trace of anger on his face.
“When did I deceive you? It was just that I asked you to become my disciple. At that time, I didn't have time. Now that I have returned, can you become my disciple”
Chen Mo crossed his arms and said proudly.
Upon hearing this, Song Xiu laughed coldly, "Do I need to become your disciple? Ha, don't joke. It was you who deceived me before. This time, I will never believe you. With such a vast Wu Country, there isn't a woman that I can't have."
Chen Mo propped one hand on his cheek and smiled as he looked at Song Xiu, "It's only because of your status as the son of the Wu King that the women of Wu are enamored with you. If you were no longer a Wu Prince, or if you stepped outside Wu Country, would they still be attracted to you?"
“Ha, I think, even without leaving Wu Country, the girl named Chu from earlier doesn't seem interested in you”
“Well, that was just an accident. As long as I put in some effort, she'll definitely not be able to escape my grasp.”
Song Xiu's right hand clenched into a fist, a slight smile curled up his lips, and a sinister smile appeared on his face.
“Well, I just asked her to do something. How about we wait a bit? Wait until she returns, and then you can try again.”
Chen Mo said with a smile.
Song Xiu tapped the table with his fingers and said, "Why should I listen to you?"
“How, are you afraid?”
Chen Mo tilted his head, a sardonic mocking expression on his face.
Song Xiu clenched his teeth, staring at Chen Mo with a fierce expression. “Hmph, let's wait then.”
Time flies. Two quarter hours have passed, but Chu Ruomeng is nowhere to be seen. Song Xiu becomes impatient, while Chen Mo takes his time sipping tea, occasionally glancing at the door.
Suddenly, he saw Chu Ruomeng flash past, giving him a surreptitious signal. But Song Xiu, who was growing impatient and still sipping tea, didn't notice.
Chen Mo's corner of the mouth curled up slightly, "Oh, I don't know where that little girl went. Why hasn't she come back yet. Alright, I guess we'll call it a day today."
“I can't”
Song Xiu slammed his hand on the table, showing that he was now dissatisfied. "If she comes back now, I want to see you humiliated. We've been waiting for so long."
During Tian Mo's teachings, Song Xiu had been mocked by Chen Mo's provocative smile several times. The scene still haunts him in his mind, and this time back in his own domain, he can't let the other party look down on him under any circumstances.
Chen Mo acted as though he was impatient, his gaze firmly fixed on the door. Suddenly, a figure in white slowly walked up from the ground floor.
Song Xiu also noticed the graceful figure at this moment, and his eyes brightened suddenly. This must be a young lady from a respectable family. Her profile is quite good.
However, her face was covered with a veil, making it difficult to see her features.
Chen Mo's mouth curled up slightly. "Six Prince, I think Chu Ruomeng won't be coming back. How about this? If you can win over the woman who just went up to the ninth floor, then I'll consider you formidable."
Chen Mo did not promise Song Xiu any benefits, but the latter still agreed without hesitation.
For a man, a bet only needs a 'You're the greatest' to be the highest honor.
Song Xiu left the private room as if he were a gust of wind, and then ascended to the ninth floor.
At this moment, Chu Ruomeng rushed over and asked, "Boss, what are you trying to do? Don't you want the Six Prince to fall in love with the Princess... That would be impossible. If the Senior Elder knows, he would be killed."
Chen Mo turned his head to Chu Ruomeng, "Where are the spirit stones I gave you?"
“Here they are.”
Chu Ruomeng took out the spirit stones and asked, “What's wrong?”
Chen Mo reached out to grab them, and Chu Ruomeng reflexively pulled them back.
“What do you want? This is my wages.”
“Since you know that this is the wages I gave you, if it's my wages, then you have to do what I ask. If you dare to talk back, don't even think about working for me anymore and give it back to me”
“I know I was wrong. Fine, I won't ask anymore. I'll never ask anymore in the future”
Chu Ruomeng pouted and stuck out her lower lip, glaring at Chen Mo with a fierce gaze, her lively eyes filled with resentment.
Chen Mo listened to the sound coming from the ninth floor, which was the servant girl guarding Bai Yun stopping Song Xiu's voice. However, because of his handsome appearance, it seems that the servant girl didn't hold out for long and let him in.
Then, Chen Mo heard Bai Yun's voice again.
"You, go and bring the servant down. Don't let her meddle in things."
Chen Mo pondered for a moment, then said.
“Why?”
Chu Ruomeng was puzzled and asked out of habit.
Chen Mo glared at her and Chu Ruomeng immediately obediently ran up and pulled the servant down with her hand.
“Oh, what are you doing? I still need to serve my lady.”
The servant, being hauled down by Chu Ruomeng without reason, was full of discontent. If she had to endure her lady's whims, the Senior Elder would certainly not spare her.
“Big people's business, you shouldn't interfere as a little kid”
Chen Mo glared at her, and the servant glared angrily back, saying in a huff: "Who do you call a little kid? I am a disciple of Tian Yuan Zong. I'm just suffering from…"
The servant was about to unleash a torrent of anger at Chen Mo and even resort to physical violence, but her expression froze upon seeing the few spirit stones that the other party had taken out.
"If you're a kid, take the spirit stones and play. If you're not, go up and keep watching."
Chen Mo waved the few spirit stones in front of the servant girl, and her big eyes followed him like a pendulum.
Seeing that the servant girl remained silent, Chen Mo was about to take back the spirit stones, but she grabbed his wrist with a 'snap' and forced a sweet smile, "Brother, you're really perceptive."
