Chapter 816: Exchange The Pills
CHAPTER 816: CHAPTER 816: EXCHANGE THE PILLS
Usually, people would argue about why they needed to pay first. They had to do it because many customers refused to pay for the room after being told to pay later. The owner implemented a new rule that people who wanted a private room had to pay for it first.
The waiter led Bai Xifeng and others to the private room. The waiter gave them the menu for them to choose what to order.
"What do you want to eat?" Bai Xifeng asked Xie Ruolan.
"Just order me one dish." Xie Ruolan said.
"How about your maid and guard?" Bai Xifeng asked again.
Xie Ruolan was surprised when Bai Xifeng asked about the maid and the guard.
"What?" Bai Xifeng noticed the silence and looked up from the menu.
"You don’t mind eating with the maid and the guard?" Xie Ruolan asked.
"Huh?" Bai Xifeng did not understand the question. "What do you mean by that? They don’t want to eat?"
Then Bai Xifeng noticed that both the maid and the guard were still standing behind Xie Ruolan.
"I am fine. I need to keep my young miss safe." The guard stated.
"I will help my young miss with her meal." The maid said.
Bai Xifeng looked at Xie Ruolan, the maid and the guard. "Well, suit yourself."
Bai Xifeng ordered what she wanted to order. She also ordered one dish for Xie Ruolan as per request.
"That is so many." Xie Ruolan said.
The maid looked sceptical at Bai Xifeng. She was thinking that Bai Xifeng seemed to want to scam her young miss’s money, ordering so many dishes that were impossible to finish alone. Not to mention, they already lost 20 million gold for the beast that Bai Xifeng contracted. If Bai Xifeng tried to get her young miss to pay for her meal, she would ask the guard to deal with Bai Xifeng.
"Don’t worry. I will finish all of them." Bai Xifeng said.
"So, Lady Bai..." Xie Ruolan tried to talk.
Bai Xifeng stopped her. "No need to call me that. Just Xifeng is enough. I will call you Ruolan."
Xie Ruolan looked stunned. The first name was often used for someone close or someone who was a friend.
"Are you sure?" Xie Ruolan asked.
"It is easier that way." Bai Xifeng replied.
"Well, then, Xifeng..." Xie Ruolan stumbled at first, before she managed to say it. "What thing that you say you have to exchange for my 20 million gold?"
Bai Xifeng smiled widely. "Are you trying to break through? Your Qi seemed to be at the bottleneck."
"You can see my cultivation level?" Xie Ruolan was surprised.
"Yeah." Bai Xifeng leaned against the chair.
"What does my cultivation have to do with this matter?" Xie Ruolan asked.
"What if I am saying that I can help you with the matter?" Bai Xifeng stated.
"How are you going to do it?" Xie Ruolan tilted her head.
"Breakthrough pill." Bai Xifeng stated one thing.
"Breakthrough pill? You have them?" Xie Ruolan became interested.
"You are going to break through from the High-Rank Establishing Foundation Realm into the Low-Rank Congealing Channels Realm. So, Mighty Huang Pill might be able to help you with that." Bai Xifeng stated.
Bai Xifeng took out a glass bottle containing pills. Xie Ruolan, her guard and maid, were surprised to see how many pills were inside the glass bottle.
"Are you telling me these pills are Mighty Huang Pill?" Xie Ruolan could not believe her eyes.
It was not easy to see a breakthrough pill. They were often found for sale at the auction. Seeing there were so many pills inside the glass bottle, Xie Ruolan was kind of speechless and in disbelief.
Bai Xifeng transferred 10 pills into another glass bottle. After that, she gave it to Xie Ruolan. Xie Ruolan accepted the bottle and stared at it.
Bai Xifeng thought Xie Ruolan did not believe the pill was the Mighty Huang Pill. So, she spoke out.
"Well, if you don’t believe it, you can ask someone to check it." Bai Xifeng said.
"You give 10 of them just like that?" Xie Ruolan managed to ask Bai Xifeng about that.
"Hmm... Is it not equivalent to 20 million gold? Should I give you another pill or more same pills?" Bai Xifeng asked.
Xie Ruolan became speechless again. How many pills did this girl have that she did not mind giving to others? This girl was richer than her.
"Ruolan, what’s wrong?" Bai Xifeng saw that Xie Ruolan was stunned.
There was a knock on the door.
"Hide the pills." Bai Xifeng ordered Xie Ruolan to do so.
Xie Ruolan acted fast. She hid the glass bottle. She knew why Bai Xifeng asked her to do so. People wanted resource and were willing to fight to get their hands on the resource. If others found out that she had the resources that they wanted, she might be a target. No wonder Bai Xifeng suggested a private room.
The waiters came in and brought in the dishes. They placed the dishes one by one on the table.
"Enjoy your meal, ladies." The waiter bowed his head and left the room.
Bai Xifeng’s eyes lifted up when she saw the dishes. She also forgot about the topic that they were talking about. Her mind was totally focusing on the dishes on the table in front of her at the moment.
