Chapter 73: Sun Heng

Five million was not a small sum. Moreover, five stalks of blood-replenishing grass were not worth this price.

Zhao Xiyao followed the voice and looked at the door. She saw a sloppy man dressed in extremely flashy clothes. When this man saw Zhao Xiyao, his eyes flashed with a golden light.

“Sun Heng, why are you here?” Zhao Xiyao’s expression was a little stunned, and her eyes were filled with disgust.

Shangguan Xuelan did not expect Sun Heng to chase her here. He even openly offered a high price to compete with them.

“What’s wrong? If you can come to Rainbow City, why can’t 1?” After Sun Heng said this, he moved closer. His eyes were full of greed when he looked at Zhao Xiyao, and he sized her up unscrupulously.

This disgusting look made Shangguan Xuelan take a few steps back. She snapped, “Are you crazy? Why are you here fighting with us?”

Sun Heng snorted coldly, “Cut the crap. There’s nothing I can’t get my hands on!”

Ever since he fell in love with Zhao Xiyao at first sight three years ago, he had used many methods to pursue Zhao Xiyao. However, she had no feelings for him at all and even often avoided him.

The financial resources of the two families were very comparable, and they were both business partners. No matter how much Zhao Xiyao hated him, she couldn’t completely fall out with him.

This also allowed Sun Heng to become more and more arrogant. As the heir of such a big family, he had played with many women, but none of them were as noble and distant as Zhao Xiyao. Who knew what it would feel like to play with her?

After he learned that Zhao Xiyao had arrived in Rainbow City, he immediately followed her. He hadn’t expected that not long after he arrived, he would hear Zhao Xiyao paying for the medicine for the pretty boy next to her. How could he not be angry?

In his heart, Zhao Xiyao was already his woman. Anyone who got close to Zhao Xiyao was not a good person in his eyes. Men understood men the most. How could he not know what this person was up to?

Han Xing’s expression did not change. Even though he knew Sun Heng’s identity, he was not nervous. No matter what price he had to pay today, he had to get these five stalks of blood-replenishing grass.

He only had one sister left, and he would not allow her to die.

Zhao Xiyao naturally didn’t want to waste time with Sun Heng, so she looked directly at Shangguan Jin.

“Mr. Shangguan, we must follow a first-come-first-serve rule when buying medicine. If Sun Heng also wants it, please give it to us first and then give the rest to him.”

How could Shangguan Jin let go of such a good opportunity? Originally, he didn’t want to show Zhao Xiyao any respect, but because of business, he couldn’t let it go. Now that Sun Heng was here, he couldn’t care less.

There was a scheming look on his face, and his voice sounded more confident. He said, “I’m sorry, Miss Zhao. You know the rules of our Shangguan family. Only the highest bidder can get the herbs.”

“It’s obvious that Young Master Sun’s offer is high enough. These five stalks of blood-replenishing grass will be given to Young Master Sun first.”

Shangguan Xuelan was about to die of anger. She stomped her feet and shouted, “Uncle, aren’t you afraid that I’ll tell Grandpa about this? If Grandpa finds out that you sullied the Shangguan family’s reputation in Rainbow City, he will definitely whip you a few times when you go back!”

These words completely embarrassed Shangguan Jin. The head of the Shangguan family had always been Old Master Shangguan. He was now 80 years old, but he still managed the entire Shangguan family.

There were many famous people in the medicine hall, but Shangguan Xuelan used Old Master Shangguan to suppress him. This was simply a slap to his face!

“Don’t think that just because you’re my niece, I won’t dare to hit you. To tell you the truth, your parents have a place in Rainbow City all thanks to their surname.”

Seeing that more and more people were gathering outside the medicine hall, Shangguan Jin had to protect the face of the Shangguan family no matter how unwilling he was. He suppressed the hatred in his heart and looked at Sun Heng with a smile.

“This niece of mine is really too embarrassing. Please forgive her, Young Master Sun.”

Sun Heng waved his hand indifferently and said, “Do you think I don’t know what kind of fool Shangguan Xuelan is?”

This was also the truth. Shangguan Xuelan was too straightforward and did not fit in with the people in their circle. She often liked to hang out with those at the bottom of the social ladder, so Sun Heng had always looked down on her.

It was a waste of her face. If something wasn’t wrong with her brain, Sun Heng would probably have done something to her. Now she was Zhao Xiyao’s good friend, otherwise Sun Heng wouldn’t even give her a glance.

“Yaoyao, you still haven’t told me who the man beside you is.”

His voice was a bit vulgar and flattering, which disgusted Zhao Xiyao.

“It’s none of your business what my relationship with him is. Even if he’s my boyfriend, you have no right to interfere with my feelings.”

These words made Sun Heng even more anxious. He looked at Han Xing with a fiery gaze.

“Some nobody dares to be with you? You don’t even care about me!”

“Why didn’t he go and find out who is chasing you? How could such a poor person be worthy of standing by Yaoyao’s side? Could he be a gigolo? You’re the kind that seduces a rich woman to survive!”

These words caused the onlookers to look at each other. After all, they were all people with family status. They were not afraid of losing their status by saying these words.

However, those who were observant immediately recognized Han Xing. The Han family was once the new rich in Rainbow City, and Han Xing had attended all kinds of banquets back then.

Those who had worked with the Han family before immediately began to discuss in low voices.

“Isn’t this the Han family’s Han Xing? How did he get involved with Zhao Xiyao? She’s the daughter of the richest man in Jiang Province!”

“Could it be that it’s really like what Young Master Sun said, he changed his profession to become a gigolo? Hahaha!”

“Impossible! Young Master Han was such an arrogant person back then. How could he be a gigolo? Besides, is it that easy to be a gigolo?”

As they spoke, they revealed everything about Han Xing, including the bankruptcy of the Han family.

Shangguan Xuelan finally realized that this person had another identity. No wonder she always felt that he was a little mysterious.

Zhao Xiyao’s eyes were filled with curiosity. Did such a man really have no ulterior motives for getting close to Shangguan Xuelan? Or was he trying to get close to her through Shangguan Xuelan?

While she was still thinking about it, Han Xing spoke up.

“Before the Han family went bankrupt, we have already settled all their debts. The Han family doesn’t owe any money to our partners.”

“My Han family is open and aboveboard, and we do things righteously.

Everyone, every dog has its day.. Isn’t it too early to kick someone when they’re down?”
