Chapter 227 Fighting Counterfeiting

When Si Linglong heard the stall owner's words "We've met someone destined to be together" she was indeed dazed for a moment.

In the past, she would not have believed such words at all, but ever since Yuan Zun pointed out the word "opportunity" to her, she became somewhat sensitive to these two words.

Wasn't the reason she came here this time just to take advantage of the "opportunity" that Lord Huang had pointed out to her?

Could it be that this fire fox is her chance this time?

Helian Yue originally looked at her coldly, thinking that she would not be fooled by such rhetoric, but unexpectedly, this person actually believed it?

It seems that I overestimated her.

The stall owner did not dare to talk to Helian Yue. After all, even if he stood there without saying a word, his aura was really oppressive. Seeing that the young lady next to him seemed to be thinking about something, he thought that she was intimidated by him, so he continued to speak fiercely.

"I see that you are also a fox lover. This fire fox is hard to come by, and you are so lucky to have it. How about this? I won't ask for more from you. I just want thirty taels. How about that?"

Si Linglong was brought back to her senses by his words, and her eyes fell on the fox in the cage again. After a closer look, she finally found the problem. Just as she was about to speak, she heard little Li Sheng beside her suddenly speak in a very serious voice,

"No, Firefox."

"Fake."

Little Li Sheng's expression was unusually serious, and he even looked a little unhappy.

Several people originally guessed that little Li Sheng was raised by a fox, so it was not surprising that he would say such things to the fox now.

Si Linglong was also surprised.

She, a student of veterinary medicine, almost made a mistake, but little Li Sheng's eyes were clear.

The stall owner was eagerly waiting for Si Linglong to speak, but when he heard the little girl's words, his brows furrowed. However, he couldn't scold the child in front of her parents, so he just smiled.

"This child is really cute, but little girl, you can't say such things carelessly. This fire fox is spiritual. It will be unhappy if you say that, and will look for you at night."

Although the stall owner had a smile on his face, there was a hint of threat in his tone. Little Li Sheng might not understand what he said as it was his first time coming into contact with the outside world, but Si Linglong and the others could hear it.

I frowned and was about to speak, but I heard a familiar voice behind me, warm but a little cold, saying,

"It's just a wild fox with its fur dyed on purpose. You dare to fool me. Do you think that no one is in charge of the area outside the rally?"

Si Linglong turned her head suddenly when she heard the voice, only to see her cheap elder brother whom she hadn't seen for a few days standing behind them, still looking elegant and handsome.

"Brother!" Si Linglong was surprised.

Si Jinyu nodded at her, then looked at Helian Yue who was standing beside him. Considering that he was outside, he just bowed.

The stall owner's face darkened when he heard that his trick had been exposed. He was about to argue with the other party, but when he saw the newcomer, he instantly became like a deflated ball, withered, and only managed a forced smile to greet the newcomer.

"Master Si, why are you..."

Si Jinyu was too lazy to talk to the stall owner and just interrupted him, "Should I ask the city guards to send you to the government office and sentence you for selling counterfeit goods, or should you apologize, close the stall and leave on your own?"

The tone was calm, but it revealed a sense of oppression.

The stall owner immediately weakened and begged for mercy, "Master Si, please spare my life. I won't do it again, ever again."

Then he turned to Li Sheng and said, "Little girl, you are right. I am wrong. I will leave now."

Having said that, he hurriedly picked up the cage and left.

Si Linglong had just noticed that the fox was dyed, but she didn't have time to say anything. She never expected that her brother would scare the fox away with just two sentences.

At this moment, I couldn't help but admire this cheap big brother.

Little Li Sheng was a little surprised to hear that person finally admit that she was right. She also knew that the person changed his words because of her brother who suddenly appeared. Her big eyes immediately looked at Si Jinyu.

Si Jinyu just noticed the little girl next to Si Linglong, and thought to himself that the emperor still had no children, so where did this child come from?

"Who is this child?" Si Jinyu asked tentatively.

Si Linglong said directly without any ambiguity, "Her name is Xiao Li Sheng, I picked her up."

Si Jinyu was a little surprised, but seeing that Helian Yue's face remained unchanged, he naturally did not show any expression and just smiled slightly, "So that's how it is."

A vendor selling candied haws happened to pass by. Si Jinyu looked at the cute child, stopped the vendor and took a candied haw and passed it over.

Little Li Sheng had seen this kind of bunches of red fruits before, but he didn't say anything. Now, looking at the fruits handed to him, his big eyes blinked and glowed slightly.

He took the candied haws and reed skewers handed to him by the man, and then he suddenly remembered what he had just learned today.

The small body suddenly leaned towards Si Jinyu and moved towards him.

When Si Jinyu saw the child approaching, she thought he wanted to talk to her, but the next second, the little kid's chubby pink lips touched her cheeks with a crisp sound.

Si Jinyu: …

Suddenly froze.
