Chapter 356 Borrowing a Wheelchair to Get Through the Days
Wu Weiwei's words made Ye Qingyun frown.
She said in a distant voice, "Master Wu, I am the one who decides the purchase and sale of medicine. You seem to be meddling too much!"
Although the young master told her to listen to Master Wu, he didn't tell her to tell him the truth about selling medicine.
"Hehe, if it's inconvenient for Mr. Ye to say, then forget it!"
A woman's intuition told Wu Weiwei that Mr. Ye in front of her seemed to have a prejudice against her.
"This involves trade secrets, so please forgive me for not being able to disclose it. I hope Mr. Wu will understand!"
Wu Weiwei nodded, indicating her understanding.
"What did Master Wu say about the matter that Mr. Ye just mentioned?"
Ye Qingyun believed he could control Wu Weiwei, after all, her Jubaolou had branches all over the world and she was truly powerful.
Previously, Wu Weiwei's medicine couldn't be sold, but Jubaolou gave her an opportunity and even provided financial support, allowing her to make a comeback.
If it weren't for Jubaolou, Wu Weiwei probably wouldn't be where she is today.
Based on this alone, Ye Qingyun was certain that she would agree.
However, to her surprise, Wu Weiwei glanced at her briefly and then apologized, saying, "I'm sorry, Mr. Ye."
After unanimous consultation among our Yulu management team, it has been decided that we are afraid we cannot accept your order…
She simply couldn't bring herself to use the rare Seven-Colored Spirit Fruit to please someone who harbored ill will towards her.
Wu Weiwei's rejection nearly distorted Ye Qingyun's face beneath the mask.
"Mr. Wu, are you sure you want to refuse me?"
Even though Ye Qingyun lowered his voice, Wu Weiwei could still hear the anger in his tone.
However, Wu Weiwei did not buy into her opinion.
"Feel sorry!"
Wu Weiwei refused without changing her expression.
"Don't you think about the consequences of refusing our Jubaolou?"
At this moment, Ye Qingyun seemed to have forgotten the instructions someone had given her a quarter of an hour earlier.
But even if she remembered, so what? She did all this for the benefit of Jubaolou.
She believes the elders will support her in doing what she is doing.
Hearing her threat, Wu Weiwei curled her lips into a smile.
She had initially thought that Jubaolou would be a great partner, but now that she saw it, she was truly disappointed.
"Mr. Ye, since that's what you think, then let's do as you wish! Please forgive me for not keeping you company any longer!"
So what if she takes the 800,000?
Now that she is a royal merchant and the Jade Deer Central City has already made a name for itself, she doesn't necessarily have to cooperate with Jubaolou.
Watching Wu Weiwei's resolute departure, Ye Qingyun gritted his teeth in anger.
"You, Wu Weiwei, how dare you betray me after using me!"
"Just you wait and see! I'll see how far your Jade Deer Manor can go without my Treasure Pavilion backing it up!"
Manager Lin, who had been waiting outside, walked in nervously.
"Mr. Ye, I noticed that Mr. Wu looked unwell when he came out. Did the deal fall through?"
Just before the young master left, he repeatedly instructed him and Mr. Ye to make sure they treated Master Wu well.
Judging from the way things were just now, it seems the deal didn't go through.
"What are you worried about? This is none of your business. I have my own plans!"
Ye Qingyun glanced at Manager Lin, then turned and left Jubaolou.
Meanwhile, at the Liu residence, five days had passed since Liu Shuning disappeared, yet Grand Tutor Liu not only took no action but also forbade Madam Lu from sending anyone to search for her.
Madam Liu looked at her husband and said angrily, "Liu Ziyu, I thought you were a good husband and a good father."
"So Ning'er has been missing for so long, and you, as her father, haven't even bothered to ask about her. Are you even human?"
I was so blind back then, how could I have married him?
Hearing Madam Lu's questioning, Grand Tutor Liu said with a bitter face, "Do you think it's because I don't want to go look for her? It's just that Ning'er, she..."
"What's wrong with Ning'er? Tell me quickly!"
Mrs. Lu shook her husband, anxiously questioning him.
"Sigh! To tell you the truth, Ning'er was kidnapped by the Princess's men!"
"The Eldest Princess? What is she doing kidnapping Ning'er? Our Liu family has no grudge against her!"
Madam Lu didn't understand, even though her husband had sided with Consort Jing and helped Lu Hanting.
But there's a reason for the grievance to be brought against them, and a reason for the debt to be owed. Why would she need to arrest their daughter?
Liu Taifu glanced at his wife.
"Don't you understand? The deceased He Yuyan is the daughter that the eldest princess lost for sixteen years."
She must have heard that Consort Jing wanted to arrange a marriage between our Ning'er and Commander Lu, which is why she kidnapped Ning'er. Our daughter is probably in grave danger..."
Hearing her husband's words, Mrs. Liu collapsed softly to the ground.
"Madam, Madam, what's wrong..."
Before dawn, the gate of the Princess's residence was being urgently pounded on.
"Your Highness, Vice General Chen has probably arrested the wrong person..."
"What did you say? Who did you arrest by mistake?"
"The woman Chen Boyan captured was not Lu Hanting's concubine Wu Weiwei, but Liu Shuning, the daughter of the current Grand Tutor Liu!"
Inside the prison.
With her hands suspended in a sling, Liu Shuning looks so different that even if the Liu couple came, they would probably have a long time before recognizing her.
Granny Jiang tortured her all night long. If she hadn't been so sleepy, Liu Shuning would probably have been barely breathing by now.
Just as she was holding the branding iron, preparing for the final procedure, she heard the cell door outside being opened.
Footsteps could be heard coming from inside the passage.
"Show mercy!"
Just as Granny Jiang was about to brand Liu Shuning's chest with the branding iron, Granny Shi quickly stopped her.
Seeing Granny Shi order someone to carefully help Liu Shuning down, Granny Jiang said tremblingly, "Granny Shi, what happened? The Princess..."
"Old woman Jiang, how could you hit me so hard..."
Seeing Liu Shuning covered in blood, especially down there... it was a truly horrific sight, and Granny Shi couldn't bear to look closely.
Upon hearing Granny Shi's words, the old woman immediately knelt on the ground.
"Granny Shi, I was wrong. I shouldn't have used such force. Please, Princess, spare this old servant's life!"
Although she didn't know why the princess regretted it, now that the princess had crippled him, what about herself...?
At this moment, a soldier stepped forward and kicked Granny Jiang in the chest with his hard leather boot, causing her to spit out a mouthful of blood.
"You vicious old woman, I only told you to torture her, not to kill her."
Now you can expect the princess's punishment!
"Princess, Princess... have mercy!"
Watching Granny Shi leave in a hurry with her people, Granny Jiang knelt on the ground, weakly wailing.
Luomei Garden.
Looking at Liu Shuning, whose face was pale on the bed, the princess frowned.
"What did the doctor say?"
"Your Highness, Physician Zhu says that due to the prolonged time since the injury, even if Miss Liu wakes up, she will likely have to rely on a wheelchair for the rest of her life..."
