<strong>Chapter 1277: Chapter 1277: My Young Master</strong>


    “What the hell is this?” Qin Yu felt a chill down his spine from Danba’s gaze.


    Luckily, Danba just nced at Qin Yu before closing the jade box and walking back to VIP seat number five with the Heavenly Mountain Snow Lotus.


    VIP seat number six was upied by Zhou Yanming, who walked up to the podium with a tray, which carried several ck, root-like objects.


    Seeing this, the crowd began whispering among themselves.


    “Eh? What is Master Zhou carrying there? Isn’t he deliberately making things difficult for Miss Nangong? I heard that Master Zhou does not have a good rtionship with Medicine Valley.”


    “You’re mistaken, how could Master Zhou target Miss Nangong? He’s too busy trying to curry favor with her since Master Zhou’s wife is the former Saintess of Medicine Valley.”


    “Huh? Really? No wonder Master Zhou visits Medicine Valley every New Year.”


    “Shh… keep your voice down. Thedy is a taboo topic for Master Zhou. Ever since he took a second wife, the first wife returned to Medicine Valley and has been avoiding him.”


    “I see, no wonder Master Zhou is so doting on Zhou Feng. It’s because he feels guilty towards his mother!”


    Zhou Yanming stepped up to the podium and ced the tray on the identification table, eyeing Nangong Zihan with aplicated look, “Miss Nangong, if you please.”


    While Nangong Zihan usually greeted everyone with a smile, her expression soured upon seeing Zhou Yanming—she disliked fickle men.


    Her uncle-inw was notably fickle!


    “Wild Yoxan Wood, mediocre quality, weighs 30 coins, 200 years old, medicinal effects: lowers blood pressure, relieves spasms, antibacterial.”


    After finishing, Nangong Zihan softly said, “Next, please.”


    Zhou Yanming’s face darkened as he slowly grabbed the tray and whispered, “Niece, do you dislike me that much? How’s your aunt doing?”


    “Zhou Yanming, you have been divorced by my aunt, please don’t call me your niece.”


    Zhou Yanming sighed and returned to seat number six with his Yoxan Wood.


    Several major medicine merchants eyed Zhou Yanming with intense interest, as Yoxan Wood was incredibly rare, especially the two-hundred-year-old variety.


    Qin Yu’s gaze remained steady; although Zhou Yanming’s Yoxan Wood was quite precious, he didn’t need it.


    Soon, it was the turn of VIP seat number thirteen. Qin Yu unconsciously moved to pick up the jade box but Mo Yuqi was quicker!


    Mo Yuqi’s hands reached for the jade box before Qin Yu, clutched it, and hurried towards the podium—Hah! As if she’d let Qin Yu and Nangong Zihan have a chance to interact!


    Did those two think she was invisible earlier with their flirting?


    In her jealousy, Mo Yuqi had forgotten to keep her veil on, so when she stepped up to the podium, many who recognized her widened their eyes in confusion.


    “Eh? Isn’t that Miss Mo?”


    “Wow! Miss Mo looks so beautiful in traditional clothing too! She’s every bit as striking as Nangong Zihan!”


    “Truly the number one beauty of Capital City!”


    …


    Mo Yuqi ced the jade box on the table, looking at Nangong Zihan with a challenging gaze, “Miss Nangong, this is our young master’s medicinal herb, please do check it.”


    Our young master?


    Swish! Everyone’s gaze instantly turned towards Qin Yu!


    Many young talents who hade with their elders to attend the medicinal herb exchange conference, upon hearing Mo Yuqi’s words, their eyes shed fiercely as if they were predators!
