The Darling of Heaven Owns a Rip-off Shop

”Just bet on whether he has you in his heart, whether he will come to rescue you. If he comes to save you, we won’t stop you at all, we’ll let you both leave safely. If he doesn’t come, then you will stay in the Fenglan Sect in penance, how about that?” Tianmiao said with a light laugh, her brows full of confidence.

Wei Yunshu blinked, then nodded and said in a deep voice, ”Little Pup, let’s bet on this. Do you dare?”

”Dare! Why wouldn’t I dare!” Cui Wei raised her head to look at Tianmiao, the confidence between her brows even stronger than Tianmiao’s, ”You promised, if he comes to save me, you absolutely won’t stop us, you will let us leave safely.”

”Of course. The Sect Master also agreed.” Tianmiao smiled at Wei Yunshu, ”So, Sect Master, let’s relax the conditions a bit more. We won’t lock her up, just have her sweep the square in your sect for penance. If that person appears to save her, we’ll let them go.”

”No problem, no problem at all.” Wei Yunshu readily agreed to what Tianmiao said. Having lived for so many years, he had seen through human nature more clearly. Not to mention grasping the pure nature of this young spirit beast who had yet to experience the world.

Cui Wei could hardly believe her ears.

She thought she would be locked in a dark, gloomy dungeon, anxiously awaiting his arrival. Instead, they actually said they would let her sweep the square in plain view?

What shocked her even more was yet to come.

Her injuries were healed, and then she was taken to the square to sweep, with a small hut provided for her rest. They didn’t seal her power; they just let her sweep the square.

She asked Tianmiao in astonishment, ”Aren’t you afraid I’ll run away?”

Tianmiao heard this and sneered, ”Run? If you run, how will this bet continue? You probably want to know the answer most in your heart, right? How can you know the answer if you run away? Or...do you actually lack confidence, thinking you’ve already lost, and that’s why you want to run?”

”I do not!” Cui Wei immediately refuted loudly, ”I won’t lose! I won’t! I’ll wait right here, I won’t take a step out of this square!”

”Alright then, we’ll see. We’ll watch if the one who loves you deeply will show up to save you.” Tianmiao scoffed, sitting by the flower bed, pulling out a bag of sunflower seeds, eating them, and carelessly throwing the shells on the ground.

Cui Wei looked at the sunflower seed shells at Tianmiao’s feet, in silence.

”What are you looking at? Get on with sweeping, I’m just giving you something to do.” Tianmiao said coldly. This naive spirit beast should endure more of society’s harshness to become smarter.

Cui Wei picked up the broom, silently sweeping the ground.

Tianmiao watched her sweep for a while, then stood up and left.

Just as she left the square, Wei Yunshu appeared behind her.

”Little Bai Yue, what are you trying to do? I don’t understand you. Are you tormenting her?” Wei Yunshu asked. From their interaction over these few days, he felt that the young lady couldn’t possibly be such a person.

”I’m giving her a lesson. Letting her understand the sinister nature of humans.” Tianmiao laughed, ”Of course, it’s also to find a helper for your Fenglan Sect. Her power in her bloodline hasn’t awakened yet. When her bloodline power awakens, you will thank me then.”

”Her? Even if her bloodline power awakens, she’d still be a weakling to me. I could easily kill her. We at Fenglan Sect don’t want such a foolish spirit beast.” Wei Yunshu shook his head, then leaned in close to Tianmiao, whispering, ”Do you already know who her companion is? Do you know that the fake Bai Yue is acting under that person’s orders? Can you tell me who that person is?”
