116: Do you want to mess with him?

“Cough cough, well, this 'principle' thing! It also has a price!” Qin Shou coughed dryly with an awkward smile.

“100,000, how about 100,000!”

Li Miaomiao named a figure, feeling a little pained.

Qin Shou thought, 'You're a young lady from a wealthy family, and you have the nerve to offer 100,000?'

Qin Shou had just conned Ye Wuhuan out of over ten million, plus the more than two million he already had, making him a minor local tycoon with a net worth of twelve million.

Naturally, his standards had risen quite a bit, and he naturally looked down on small sums like 100,000.

“You have the nerve to offer 100,000? Is my principle really that cheap? And you're a rich young lady, can't you be a bit more generous?” Qin Shou said with a look of disdain.

Actually, Qin Shou misunderstood Li Miaomiao. Although Li Miaomiao's family was wealthy, she didn't have much money herself.

This was because Li Miaomiao was mischievous by nature and spent money without restraint. She would spend whatever she was given, so her family elders were extremely strict with her, giving her only a fixed 300,000 in pocket money each month.

This 100,000 was already one-third of Li Miaomiao's monthly pocket money. How could she not feel pained?

“Then just tell me directly, how much did Ye Wuhuan give you? I, Li Miaomiao, will give you double, alright?”

Li Miaomiao gritted her teeth. She was tormented by curiosity, feeling as uncomfortable as if a cat were scratching her heart. She decided to go all out and definitely extract the secret from Qin Shou's mouth.

Qin Shou heard this and thought, 'Holy moly, twenty million!' He immediately put on a fawning smile and said, beaming, “Hehe, you're a good judge of character, I like that. Ye Wuhuan gave me ten million, you just give me twenty million.”

His heart was practically blooming with joy. He thought, 'Holy moly, this is also a god of wealth, no, this is practically a female Bodhisattva! He just made thirty million in one go, this wave is a direct take-off!'

Qin Shou was filled with Joyful, seemingly already seeing countless banknotes flying towards him, but he didn't expect Li Miaomiao, after hearing Qin Shou's words, to show a troubled expression.

Li Miaomiao frowned tightly, hesitated for a long time, and then said disbelievingly, “Ten million? You think I'm a fool! I don't believe it.”

“Don't believe it! If you don't believe it, look at this.”

With that, Qin Shou actually took out his phone and opened Ye Wuhuan's transfer receipt message, letting Li Miaomiao see it clearly.

“This—!”

Li Miaomiao was speechless upon seeing the receipt message.

“Hehe, if you don't have money, then forget it. It just so happens that I also want to preserve my integrity.”

After speaking, Qin Shou intended to leave.

“Wait!” Li Miaomiao saw Qin Shou about to leave and immediately became anxious.

“What's up? You have money again?” Qin Shou stopped, turned back, and looked at Li Miaomiao with a smile.

Li Miaomiao bit her lip, as if having made a great decision, and said, “How about this, although I don't have money, I can give you a magical artifact. My magical artifact is worth far more than twenty million; you might not even be able to get it with money. But I have one condition: the information you sell me must make me, Li Miaomiao, feel it's worth the price.”

Upon hearing this, Qin Shou couldn't help but be tempted. He had witnessed the power of Li Miaomiao's magical artifact, especially the powerful revolver pistol that left a deep impression on him. If it weren't for that pistol, they would all have died at Nuo Nuo's hands that day.

However, although Qin Shou was tempted, he wasn't a fool. He still shook his head and said, “How do I know how you'll judge if this information is worth it? That's too subjective and unfair to me.”

“Hmm! That seems right.”

“Hmm! That seems right.” Li Miaomiao showed a troubled expression upon hearing this. She also felt her suggestion was a bit inappropriate, as the standard for measuring value varied from person to person.

Finally, she hesitated for a long time, stomped her foot, puffed out her cheeks, and said exasperatedly, “So annoying, I don't care anymore, it's settled! We'll exchange for the magical artifact! No extra conditions needed.”

“Alright, I want that gun you had that day. Give it to me and I'll tell you the information.”

“Hehe, deal. A hand for money, a hand for goods.”

Li Miaomiao couldn't help but be delighted upon hearing this. Her beautiful big eyes rolled around, and a pistol suddenly appeared in her hand out of thin air.

Qin Shou was also stunned by this. He had witnessed Li Miaomiao's method that day and found it incredibly magical, but now that he had the Ancient Loose Cultivator's storage ring, he knew that Li Miaomiao most likely also possessed a treasure for storage.

Qin Shou took the giant revolver pistol from Li Miaomiao's hand and couldn't help but say, “Where are the bullets? Doesn't this thing come with bullets?”

As he spoke, Qin Shou fiddled with the giant revolver pistol in his hand, feeling its substantial weight and texture.

“Hehe, I used three that day fighting the demonic corpse, so there are only three left now. My master only made me six bullets. If you use them up, they're gone.”

Li Miaomiao shrugged proudly, feeling like she had finally won a round, and was somewhat pleased.

The reason she agreed so readily was that although the gun was powerful, making the bullets was extremely troublesome. At least, she didn't know how to do it; her master had to help. Unfortunately, her master was usually very busy, so how could he have time to make bullets for her every day? If ordinary bullets were used, the gun's power would be greatly reduced. Since it could only be used three times anyway, Li Miaomiao felt she had made a profit.

However, Qin Shou, weighing the rune-covered revolver pistol in his hand, didn't care. Three bullets were enough, and Qin Shou had Ling'er and the Ancient Loose Cultivator's manuscript, so he was confident he could make the bullets himself.

Most importantly, Qin Shou knew that Ye Wuhuan would soon come looking for trouble, and he needed some means of self-preservation. Although this gun only had three bullets, it might save his life at a critical moment.

“Hehe, now it's your turn to tell me the information.”

Li Miaomiao looked at Qin Shou with anticipation, already a little impatient.

“Alright.”

Qin Shou put away the revolver in his hand, leaned close to Li Miaomiao's ear, and spilled all the details about Ye Wuhuan's attempt to pick up a girl and ending up with a man, even embellishing the story.

Li Miaomiao immediately clutched her stomach, laughing so hard she almost choked.

“Are you telling the truth?”

Li Miaomiao even found it hard to believe, thinking this fact was too incredible. Ye Wuhuan would actually do such a foolish thing, it completely overturned her understanding.

“If you don't think it's true, would he give me ten million for no reason?”

Qin Shou rolled his eyes at Li Miaomiao, saying indifferently.

“That's true! Hahaha, this is going to be interesting now. That guy has liked Ren Jing sister for so long; if Ren Jing sister finds out about this, I'd like to see what face he has left to pursue Ren Jing sister.”

Li Miaomiao's heart was practically blooming with joy. She couldn't be happier, feeling that this transaction was a huge profit.

Qin Shou's heart stirred upon hearing this, and he finally understood why Ye Wuhuan was willing to spend ten million to make him keep quiet—it was to pursue Ren Jing.

“You seem to really dislike Ye Wuhuan.”

Qin Shou looked at Li Miaomiao with curiosity, feeling that Li Miaomiao's attitude towards Ye Wuhuan carried a hint of disgust.

“Hmph! You have no idea how disgusting that guy is, he just loves to put on an act!”

As she said this, Li Miaomiao's face was filled with indignation, clearly having held a grudge against Ye Wuhuan for a long time. She seemed to recall something unpleasant, and her emotions became somewhat agitated.

“Then do you want to prank him?”

Qin Shou looked at Li Miaomiao with a smile, suddenly feeling that Li Miaomiao was indeed a wonderful person who could be put to good use.

“Of course, of course! Tell me how to prank him, I'll listen to you, hehe.”

Li Miaomiao indeed nodded with a little excitement, clearly very interested in pranking Ye Wuhuan.
