Chapter 128
“Thank you for your return business. Welcome next time.”
Yu Niaoniao held the remaining 120 taels of silver, her heart aching so much that she could not breathe.
She was really a prodigal. In the blink of an eye, she had spent 200 taels.
That was 200 taels of silver!
How much good food could she buy with that amount?
The more she thought about it, the more regretful she became.
Yu Niaoniao looked at the man in front of her and gritted her teeth.
“Profiteer!”
Xiao Juan looked down at her, his lips curled.
Before he could smile, Yu Niaoniao quickly covered her eyes and turned her back on him.
She said loudly and righteously.
“Don’t you dare cheat me of my money again!”
With that, she slipped around the screen and ran back to her small desk, not giving him any chance.
It was impossible for her to do the same thing three times in a row.
Seeing this, the corners of Xiao Juan’s mouth fell again, but there was a faint smile in his eyes.
Actually, he did not care about that little money. He just wanted the girl to remember the lesson and not be blinded by beauty in the future.
Especially those popular celebrities. All of them were powerful demons who could easily empty her pockets.
Yan Nanguan led a group of Eagle Guards into Prince Min’s Mansion and turned the entire mansion upside down.
The Eagle Guards were rough. By the time they finished searching, Prince Min’s Mansion had become a mess.
There were still a lot of people gathered outside the mansion. They were all here to watch the show.
Prince Min lost all his face.
He was so angry that he threw his horsetail whisk to the ground and cursed.
“You dogs dare to do whatever you want just because the emperor trusts you. Do you really think there’s no law? I’ll enter the palace and explain this to the emperor. I’ll definitely kill you!”
Yan Nanguang reached out and blocked his way.
“Before the case is investigated, please don’t leave the mansion casually.”
Prince Min glared at him. “Are you trying to put me under house arrest?”
Yan Nanguan said, “Your Highness, you’re being too serious. It’s not house arrest. I’m just asking you to cooperate with the investigation.”
Prince Min pointed at his nose and cursed.
“Who do you think you are? You’re just a dog under Xiao Juan. Even Xiao Juan isn’t qualified to control me. What right do you have to ask me to cooperate with you? Get lost, don’t block my path!”
When Yan Nanguan was handling cases, they had seen all kinds of people, and there was naturally no lack of exasperated and cursing types like Prince Min.
The angrier the other party was, the calmer Yan Nanguan became.
“Your Highness, don’t forget that your heir is still locked up in the Justice Department. If you can cooperate with us to solve the case as soon as possible, the heir will be able to regain his freedom as soon as possible. Otherwise... you understand.”
When he said the last three words, Yan Nanguan’s lips curled into a meaningful smile.
Prince Min trembled with anger. “How dare you threaten me!”
Yan Nanguan waved his hand. “Send His Highness back to his room to rest.”
Immediately, two Eagle Guards stood up and grabbed Prince Min’s arms from both sides, forcefully sending him into the house.
Even with the door closed, they could still hear Prince Min cursing.
“Don’t give me a chance to get out, or I’ll kill all of you dogs!”
Yan Nanguan instructed the Eagle Guards softly.
“Keep an eye on him, but don’t stare too hard.”
If he wanted to lure the snake out of its hole, he had to give it a chance.
The Eagle Guards were very experienced in dealing with such matters. They nodded in unison. “Understood!”
