"Another Fangcunji?"
Wang Tiechun quickly forced himself to calm down and flatly denied, "What nonsense are you talking about, Fairy? I don't understand. There is only one Fangcunji."
"oh?"
Xiang Sheng looked at Wang Tiechun meaningfully, then suddenly smiled. "Manager Wang, why are you so strict? Do you have to be frank before you'll tell me the truth?"
Wang Tiechun pursed his lips and said, "I have said it clearly enough. If the fairy doesn't believe me, there is nothing I can do."
This woman must be cheating her!
The cooperation with another Fangcun Collection is a top secret of Tianqing Pavilion. Anyone who knows about it must understand the rules and will never leak any information to the outside world.
This woman did not take the initiative to show the mask token, so he would never reveal a word to anyone.
"That's all."
Xiang Sheng shook his head slightly. "Manager Wang, I contributed a lot to your transfer from Xiangcheng to this position. It's really chilling to see you being so ungrateful."
Wang Tiechun's face darkened slightly. "I came here to take up the post of Tianqing Pavilion's internal affairs. Why do I need help from others? Fairy, please stop talking nonsense, otherwise..."
"How else?"
Xiang Sheng raised his eyebrows and said in a colder tone, "Wang Tiechun, do you really think I'm in the mood to joke with you? You don't need help from others? If Wei Leyan hears this, your position as manager will be over."
These words came as a shocking blow.
Wang Tiechun's expression suddenly changed, and he stared at Xiang Sheng with horror in his heart.
She actually knew!
How could that be?
He did it extremely secretly at this time, and Wei Leyan could not tell this to other people. Although the casual cultivator in front of him was a sword cultivator, he was only a foundation-building cultivator. How could Wei Leyan establish a relationship with him?
Wang Tiechun's mind was in a mess and he couldn't speak for a long time.
"Fairy, having said this, please do not embarrass my family any further."
Suddenly, a third person's voice was heard in the room.
Xiang Sheng raised his cold eyes and saw a slim and beautiful woman in plain clothes coming in from the door.
The woman came over with a faint smile on her face.
She was slender and looked frail, but Wang Tiechun was in awe when he saw her. He quickly called out, "Master Supervisor!"
The hostess's smile faded as she ordered, "You can go down first. You don't need to get involved in what's going on here anymore, and you are not allowed to reveal a single word to anyone else."
"I understand!"
Wang Tiechun breathed a sigh of relief, bowed, turned around and left in a hurry.
The woman watched him leave and couldn't help but chuckle, saying, "Sister, you're really amazing! Wang Tiechun is quite scheming, but today he was frightened out of his wits by you and fled in a hurry. This really makes the people I employ at Tianqing Pavilion seem a bit unworthy."
"Boss, you're being too serious. Let's get down to business."
Xiang Sheng simply changed the subject. She knew at first glance that this person was a skilled verbal sparring partner, and she didn't have the time to beat around the bush with him.
"I don't think my sister is a straightforward person."
A gleam of brilliance flashed across the woman's pretty eyes. "Very well, I'll get straight to the point. What you want is a secret of our Tianqing Pavilion, and it's extremely precious."
Although the Tianqing Pavilion is in the capital, only one token of trust remains.
I can give it to you, but only if you demonstrate sufficient value. Otherwise, I cannot bear the wrath of that master."
At this point, the woman brushed her hair away from her ear and laughed again, "I forgot, I haven't told you my name yet. My surname is Liang, and my given name is Su. May I know what your name is, sister?"
Xiang Sheng narrowed his eyes slightly.
Liang Su's words seemed to explain her difficulties and were polite and considerate, but in fact they were putting pressure on her to force her to reveal her true identity and prove her worth.
If I really told him, I would not only fail to get the token from the stall owner, but would fall into his trap, with unpredictable consequences.
Thinking of this, Xiang Sheng said, "Manager Liang, how about we make a bet?"
Liang Su's plan failed, but she didn't care. She took over the conversation in a delicate voice: "I am an expert in gambling. I wonder how your bet was made?"
"Manager Liang wants to know my identity simply to seek peace of mind."
Xiang Sheng smiled faintly, "But it's too unfair for me to bear the risk alone.
When it comes to business, for the stall owners at Fangcunji, so-called value and status are probably only one aspect; more importantly, it depends on what they can bring to the table. "What do you think, Manager Liang, is it true or not?"
When Liang Su heard this, she immediately understood, and her eyebrows moved slightly: "You want to bet on treasures, what are you betting on?"
"That depends on how ambitious Director Liang is."
Xiang Sheng's eyes were blazing. "My identity will be exposed after I enter Fang Cun Ji. If the total value of the treasures I sell exceeds the agreed limit, Director Liang must not reveal my whereabouts to anyone, not even your superiors."
If it doesn't exceed the agreed limit, Director Liang can do whatever he wants. I accept the loss."
Liang Su's gaze towards Xiang Sheng suddenly deepened.
With such a bet, this woman must be extraordinary. Who could she be?
She subconsciously recalled the famous female cultivators over the years, and then stopped.
No, this person wasn't necessarily a female cultivator, or even a sword cultivator. All the things she had shown before were most likely deliberate impersonations to confuse the audience.
If this person enters Fangcunji, there will most likely be trouble.
But if the other party can really make a big noise, as long as he can scare out one or two big figures, no matter whether the bet wins or loses, he will be able to obtain first-hand information, and his status in the cabinet will also be able to rise significantly.
But if everything was just a scam, and she had expended a Fang Cun Ji stall owner's token without authorization, it would be a serious crime! She would be doomed to eternal damnation.
To gamble or not to gamble?
Her brows were tightly furrowed, and her expression was uncertain.
