Drunken Lotus: Fated With The Rogue Hidden Dragon 37 Who's The Real Frog At The Bottom Of The Well? - 11.1

Following behind Ho You, Fan Zhu Xia's eyes couldn't help but widen for a fraction as she took in the bustling yet quiet and organized scene in front of her, making her momentarily stop by the entrance which drew quite a couple of eyes to her direction which made even Ho You smile wryly.

Seeing how totally unaware of the effect she had on people, Ho You knew that despite her prestigious background, she was still quite grounded and a down to earth person. After all, if she wasn't like that then how under heaven's name was he able to chat with her earlier in such a familiar and amiable fas.h.i.+on?

Oblivious to everyone's thoughts and gazes, Fan Zhu Xia just looked around and absorbed the surrounding scene in front of her.

The moment she entered the Thousand Treasures Pavillion, she immediately noticed how the tall walls were filled with numerous shelves of varying sizes containing a variety of rare and exquisite things ranging from weapons, tools, hard to find medicinal herbs, refining materials and even various armors and clothes!

There were even numerous gla.s.s cases displaying a little bit of everything, from middle to high grade pills, trinkets and quite a number profound artifacts of different calibers, whereas a number of tables and comfortable chairs were setup in the far end side of the rather sizeable hall where a couple of people actually sat at while some attendants are showing them an item and explaining it before letting them inspect it themselves.

This was something that even Fan Zhu Xia didn't expect to see here.

Fan Zhu Xia took everything in with an appreciative look in her eyes before calling Ho You's attention and curiously asking a question.

"Brother Ho, Xia'er didn't realize that the Thousand Treasure's Pavillion also had merchandise on display. Are the item's to be auctioned also displayed here?"

"Miss Xia'er, the items to be auctioned are not housed here. They are kept separately from the rest and is under tighter security than what we have here on the floor." Ho You patiently explained while Fan Zhu Xia nodded her head pensively as she thought of what he said.

Meanwhile, a couple of the guests and customers near them couldn't help but give them a strange look when they heard how casual they were at addressing each other, after all, one was obviously a young miss from a high-cla.s.s family, solely judging by her clothes, lookd and the way she carried herself while the other was just a servant!

He wasn't even one of those servants worth befriending in their eyes after all as far as they know, Ho You was only one of the attendants in charge of greeting the customers and guests at the entrance and leading them inside the pavillion.

Noticing the strange glances, Ho You half-expected Fan Zhu Xia to turn around and leave but to his pleasant surprise, not only did she ignore the looks and comments but he could swear that he distinctly saw a flash of disdain in her eyes when she shot a look at the direction of the other customers before it quickly disappeared as if it was never there as her gaze was still filled with warmth when she turned back to him. It left him a bit baffled, missing the query that she asked him.

Seeing that Ho You's mind was momentarily dazed, Fan Zhu Xia couldn't help but stifle a giggle making Ho You blush a little from embara.s.sment.

Just as Fan Zhu Xia was about to open her mouth to repeat her question, she heard a derisive snort come from behind her before a young lady's voice that was soft and pleasant to hear started to talk in a mocking voice which made Fan Zhu Xia's expression darken as a layer of frost appeared in her eyes.

The initially pleasant voice quickly resembled nails scratching a board that emitted a high-pitched noise that was greating to hear.

Simply annoying!

"Such a b.u.mpkin! Already awed by this place, it's already quite obvious that you're only putting on a show of being some family's young miss! After all, who's miss would actually go and fraternitize with a lowly servant? Hahaha!"

Hearing her belittling words, almost all servants and workers in the vicinity had ugly looks on their faces while most of the customers' servants could only swallow the humiliation they felt at the young lady's words, almost all the attendants and workers of Thousand Treasures Pavillion had cold abd gloomy looks as they stared at the young lady.

Talking loudly and haughtily, the young lady quickly drew the attention of the people there and almost all of them started paying attention, after all, who didn't like watching a good show?

Becoming the center of attention, Fan Zhu Xia was still ineffably composed as if she wasn't hearing anything but pa.s.sing air. This made Chun Hua who was filled with righteous indignation and was just quietly following behind her young miss hold her tongue and took deep breaths.

If her young miss wasn't going to bother with such petty matters then Chun Hua can only follow her lead. This was exactly the same with Min Sheng. Since the young miss did not give any orders then he can only silently watch, this didn't stop him from coldly glaring at the young lady who suddenly decided to verbally attack their precious young miss out of nowhere!

Min Sheng could only memorize her face and make sure to report this to Fan Zhu Xia's father, the Lei w.a.n.gye; Fan Hui Zhong.

Looking at the scene, the countless guests and customers started discussing amongst themselves and some even recognized who the young lady was that mocked Fan Zhu Xia.

It was no other than the visiting princess of the Spirit Valor Country; Ning Yan Mei!
