Chapter 379 Huge Compensation
Chapter 379 Huge Compensation
"Hahaha!"
Zhu Shun laughed wildly. It was the first time he had heard such words. Merchants were the lowest class of beings, destined to be bullied by officials!
"I want to see how hard you are to bully!!"
Shu He glanced at him and looked at Zhu Yao, "Does the eldest master insist on this as well?"
Zhu Yao is a smart man, perhaps he would have made a different choice.
Zhu Yao looked at her, somewhat confused about her true intentions.
Seeing this, Shu Yuanqi said, "Master, her eyes are exactly like my mistress's! There's no doubt about it! Just by looking at her arm, her identity will be revealed to the world! When the time comes, my Shu family will become royal relatives, and we will definitely not forget your kindness!!"
Zhu Yao swept his cold gaze over him, his brows revealing undisguised disgust and disdain.
"I insist!"
After Zhu Yao finished speaking, Shu He showed a sneer on his face, "In that case, I can satisfy you!"
"But we have to talk about this. If I'm not the Shu He you're talking about, how should I account for my losses?"
"Fifty thousand taels for loss of reputation, plus the cost of renovations, loss of medicinal materials, and lost work time, a total of five hundred and fifty thousand taels."
"You two, do you accept?"
Before Zhu Yao could say anything, Shu Yuanqi jumped up and said, "Accept it, accept it! Eldest Young Master, Second Young Master, believe me, she is definitely my mistress! I'm just kidding! Anyway, you don't have to pay her back, it doesn't matter how much she says!"
Seeing his confidence, Zhu Shun agreed immediately, "Okay! I accept it!"
Shu He ignored him, looked at Zhu Yao, and asked, "Does the eldest master accept it too?"
"But don't, when you lose, put all the blame on an idiot and say things like you were instigated by someone."
Zhu Shun didn't care about the consequences at all and rushed to answer, "Accept it, accept it! Stop talking nonsense! Show me your arms!"
"Since the eldest young master is silent, I will assume that he has acquiesced! Prince Li and Prince Dongping are both here today. I would like to ask you two to be witnesses to prevent anyone from denying the crime!"
Jiang Dongping immediately spoke up after hearing this, "It's a trivial matter. I'll be your witness! If these two young masters dare to deny their debt, I'll go to the palace and file a complaint with the emperor! This will also allow all the civil and military officials in the court to re-recognize the family tradition of Grand Tutor Zhu!"
Zhu Yao felt a little uneasy, but there was no way out now, so he could only agree.
Shu He walked out and was about to lift her sleeves, but found a hand holding her arm tightly.
Looking sideways, the man's unhappy expression seemed to express some kind of dissatisfaction and resistance.
After all, she is his woman, how can he show her to others?
Shu He glared at him and whispered, "Let go!"
What she exposed in the other world could scare him to death. Just a small arm was worth making him so nervous!
Baili Moqing frowned slightly, and a hint of innocence appeared in his big eyes.
After he let go, Shu He quickly pulled up his sleeves.
The fair and slender arm was exposed to everyone's eyes. Everyone held their breath to check it out. However, the arm was clean and flawless. Not to mention scars, not even a pore could be seen!
Zhu Yao and Zhu Shun's faces turned pale in an instant. Zhu Shun wanted to go forward to take a closer look, but he saw a big hand quickly reaching out, lowering the sleeve and covering the slender arm.
"Have you seen enough?" Baili Moqing stared at Zhu Shun coldly, the coldness from his body almost freezing him.
Zhu Shun was furious. He grabbed Shu Yuanqi, who was trying to escape, and asked him fiercely, "Didn't you say this woman is definitely your sister? Why doesn't she have the scar you mentioned?"
Shu Yuanqi was so frightened that his face turned pale, and he could only beg for mercy, "Second Master, please forgive me, I, I don't know what happened!"
Zhu Shun was about to teach Shu Yuanqi a lesson, but Shu He stepped forward and asked, "Why, Second Young Master, do you really want to do as I said and put all the blame on this idiot?"
Shu Yuanqi was both embarrassed and annoyed, glaring at Shu He, "You're the idiot! I'm the son of a fourth-rank general, a legitimate official, and you dare to scold me?!"
"Shut up! I'll settle the score with you later!" Zhu Shun threw him aside and sent two servants to watch over him to prevent him from running away.
Facing Shu He and Baili Moqing, Zhu Shun's confidence was obviously weakened.
"Perhaps your scar has been healed? Aren't you a doctor? How difficult can it be to remove a scar?"
Shu He sneered, "According to what the Second Young Master said, does that mean all the female doctors without scars on their arms are Miss Shu He?"
"You, you are just quibbling!!"
"It's the Second Young Master who's making excuses, right?" Shu He glanced at him, then looked at Zhu Yao. "Eldest Young Master, do you have any other evidence? Just bring it all out. This farce has gone on long enough. If it drags on any longer, you'll have to pay more than 550,000 in compensation!"
Zhu Yao had a gloomy face, and he always felt that what happened today was very strange, as if it was a trap set specifically for the Zhu family.
"Compensation! I'll compensate for the loss of the Precious Medicine Pavilion!"
"It's just that, Miss Liu, are you really not Shu He?"
He stared into her eyes, trying to find some clues from her eyes.
However, he was disappointed.
"Mr. Zhu, instead of wasting your time here with me, you should think about this unfounded news. Who spread it? Who arranged for Shu Yuanqi to push the Zhu family into the trap step by step?"
