Chapter 220 Pretending to be Fooled



"Really?" Yun Duo's eyes lit up immediately, then she murmured softly, "I don't want to bully others, as long as others don't bully me." As she spoke, she rubbed the corner of her clothes.

Just then, the black panther walked over, its sharp eyes falling on Yun Duo, making Yun Duo feel instantly exposed, and her back was instantly soaked with sweat.

Am I overdoing it?

Before Yunduo could even begin to reflect on her actions, Black Panther spoke up: "Come with me." With that, he turned and walked away.

Yun Duo really wanted to put up a fight, after all, Black Panther hadn't named her, had he?

But her legs started moving 'unconsciously', and she followed closely behind the black panther, looking rather shaky.

Yun Duo followed Black Panther to a room that looked like a study. Black Panther sat imposingly on a dark chair, staring down at Yun Duo for a long while, making her wish she could turn into a grain of sand to hide. Only then did he slowly speak: "Did my men cause you some trouble?"

The sentence is a question, but the tone is affirmative.

Before Yunduo could answer, Black Panther continued, "No matter what trouble it is, with royal jelly, I'll hand the person over to you and leave it to you to do as you please. You can do whatever you want. Or, you can tell me, and I'll do it, I guarantee you'll be satisfied."

"No, then you'll be in even bigger trouble."

"Your elders are with the county magistrate, right? I'll have someone go and bring them over."

Yun Duo was still wondering whether to continue playing dumb or what, but when she heard Black Panther casually mention sending someone to the county magistrate to pick up her grandfather, she immediately forgot about pretending to be stupid and said, "No need. Royal jelly, right? Yes, we have some. But not much. We only have two bee colonies. No matter how hard I try, I can't get more royal jelly. I think you wouldn't want me to lie, would you?"

"Heh..." Black Panther chuckled softly, then said coldly, "What? Not playing dumb anymore?"

As expected, they figured it out.

Yun Duo cursed her bad luck inwardly, but said confidently, "I'm used to it. If I hadn't pretended to be stupid, my heartless parents would have tortured me to death long ago."

"I don't care about trivial matters. If you have royal jelly, I'll pay a high price. Not too little won't do; you have to guarantee at least twenty grams a day. If you dare to try to cheat me with fakes, I'll make your whole family wish they were dead," Black Panther said expressionlessly.

"You're such a grown woman, how can you threaten me like this?" Although Yun Duo felt uneasy inside, she didn't show it on her face.

He's the one who needs his help now! And he's threatening me, huh ╭(╯^╰)╮ Even if I accept the threat, I can't lose face!

“It’s not a threat,” Black Panther said calmly.

...

So that's the truth?

I have so many "mmp"s on my lips, but I just don't dare to say them!

Yun Duo hesitated for a moment, then looked at Black Panther and said defiantly, "I don't know if it's twenty grams a day, I can only say I'll try my best. Besides, royal jelly can't be harvested every day; the bees need time to produce it. Also, royal jelly spoils very quickly and needs to be stored at low temperatures, otherwise it will be ineffective in a couple of days, and you probably won't be able to tell. So, you'd better figure out a way to solve this problem yourself."

"Also, after autumn, even if you kill me, I won't be able to conjure up royal jelly for you. You should be prepared for that."
