Chapter 8

Hu Yaoyao is not only a great beauty but also a smooth-talking woman who is very good at winning people's favor.

However, He Wuhate has no good feelings towards this alluring woman. Seeing her heavily made-up appearance and deliberately seductive posture, he feels only disgust.

"Hey, what wind is blowing tonight to bring the great Young Master He here? What a distinguished guest!"

As soon as He Wuhate entered the room, Hu Yaoyao's soft, sticky voice cooed over. She took light, graceful steps to approach He Wuhate, smiling seductively and giving a curtsy.

Although he felt disgusted, He Wuhate did not want to show any signs of it, so he also smiled and greeted Hu Yaoyao. "Hey, it's been a few days, Sister Hu. Your chest seems to have gotten bigger."

Hu Yaoyao was somewhat surprised, but not by He Wuhate's unusual greeting. After all, this playboy had always been like this, always making lewd remarks.

What surprised her was why He Wuhate would suddenly appear tonight.

She knew about He Wuhate's rape of Princess Lianyu and how he almost got beaten to death. Therefore, she thought He Wuhate would stay low for a while, confined to the manor by He Yaotian. She did not expect this playboy to come and "offer money" again.

Thinking about this, Hu Yaoyao smiled and said, "Young Master He, how did you know there would be a big show tonight? We haven't even invited you, yet you came on your own."

"Huh? Really? What big show is there tonight?" He Wuhate really did not know what was happening. He had decided to come to the Fengyun Arena on a whim.

Seeing that He Wuhate's expression did not seem fake, Hu Yaoyao explained.

"Young Master, it's like this. There are two king-level fierce dogs fighting tonight, the biggest show in three months."

"Both of these fierce dogs have the bloodline of the arctic snow wolves, making them extremely powerful. The match tonight will be very exciting. Many young masters from Yujing City have come to watch, and how could it be without you, Young Master?"

Upon hearing Hu Yaoyao's words, He Wuhate became cautious, knowing that she had ulterior motives. He couldn't help but sneer inwardly.

However, he still pretended to be interested and laughed loudly. "Oh, then this young master will have some fun later."

"But before that, I need you to do something for me."

"Hey, what could be so difficult for Young Master He that he needs Sister's help? But go ahead, Young Master, just say it. If Sister can help, I will do it without hesitation."

Hu Yaoyao spoke with a seductive smile, her soft body intentionally getting closer to He Wuhate, her animated expression very alluring.

"It's like this. This young master is here to borrow something from you."

Upon hearing this, Hu Yaoyao laughed inwardly, her face beaming. She responded enthusiastically.

"Oh, Young Master, why are you being so formal with Sister? Just say what you need to borrow."

"I want to borrow six hundred big dogs. They don't need to be of noble bloodline; just ordinary big dogs that are fierce enough."

Upon hearing this, Hu Yaoyao was taken aback and said in surprise, "Young Master, six hundred big dogs is a lot, but I can manage with some effort. But what do you need so many big dogs for?"

He Wuhate laughed arrogantly. "I have a dream, to build the largest dog kennel in all of Yujing City, to raise countless fierce dogs, to show my noble status and taste."

Upon hearing this, Hu Yaoyao laughed inwardly, despising He Wuhate even more than ever before.

Other playboys either dream of being as rich as a country, surrounded by beautiful women, or of having unparalleled martial power.

But he, on the other hand, had such a goal and dream, which was simply a waste of time and a complete waste, a real oddity.

However, Hu Yaoyao still smiled and nodded. "Since Young Master has asked, I will do my best to help you fulfill your wish. I will give the order right away to have six hundred big dogs prepared and sent to the He manor."

Soon, Hu Yaoyao had the matter settled. With her order, the Fengyun Arena quickly gathered six hundred big dogs and sent them to the He manor.

He Wuhate arranged for A-er to accompany the arena staff to escort the six hundred big dogs back to the He manor and arrange them in the kennels.

After finishing this matter, He Wuhate was in high spirits, eager to go home and slaughter the dogs to level up. However, Hu Yaoyao smiled and took out an abacus, keeping him there.

"Young Master, although we are like siblings and have a deep bond, you know I am just a weak woman and cannot make decisions. Six hundred big dogs are a huge sum of money."

"Sister has already done her best by lending them to you. I hope Young Master can sign a promissory note as proof."

He Wuhate had anticipated that Hu Yaoyao would do this, as she always did before, even using the same words.

As she spoke, her body intentionally or unintentionally pressed against He Wuhate, looking pitiful with her big, sad eyes.

The soft, pleading words of the beauty and the intentional or unintentional physical contact were something the former Young Master He could not resist, so he always willingly complied.

He Wuhate sneered inwardly but pretended to be sympathetic, looking serious and patting his chest. "Sister Hu, what are you saying? Borrowing money and signing a promissory note is only right. I won't make it difficult for you."

So, Hu Yaoyao took out a promissory note and smiled at He Wuhate. "Six hundred big dogs, a total of 480,000 taels of silver. Please sign and seal it, Young Master."

"What? 480,000 taels of silver? That's so expensive?" He Wuhate was genuinely shocked, and his anger grew.

He knew very well that ordinary fierce dogs could be bought for just a dozen taels of silver, and only those of noble bloodline were worth hundreds of taels.

But Hu Yaoyao had priced each of the six hundred big dogs at 800 taels of silver, clearly taking him for a fool and deliberately overcharging him.

Seeing He Wuhate's pained expression, Hu Yaoyao felt even more triumphant. She thought her plan was going smoothly, bringing her closer to her goal.

So, she stepped closer and pushed further. "Yes, 480,000 taels of silver is a lot, but these big dogs have excellent bloodlines, worth far more than that. Sister is giving you a discount."

"Besides, what is this amount to Young Master? Moreover, to achieve your great goal, spending more is justified. Only then can you show your taste and status."

"Furthermore, Sister is not asking you to pay all at once. Don't worry, Sister will help you find a way."

"See, Sister knows you can't pay 480,000 taels of silver right away, so I have already thought of a solution."

"I found out that a martial artist is offering a large sum for a sword technique manual called 'Falling Snow Sword Technique.' He is willing to pay 500,000 taels of silver for it."

"Your family has many books. You can go back and look for it. Maybe you can find this manual. Then, you can give it to me, and I will sell it for you, which will clear the 480,000 taels of silver."

Hu Yaoyao spoke casually, pretending to be helpful and thinking of ways to help He Wuhate.

But to He Wuhate, her words only made him sneer more, his disgust and hatred for Hu Yaoyao reaching its peak.

He was not a fool. He knew very well that the martial artist's offer for the manual was a lie, and it was likely that Hu Yaoyao herself was after the 'Falling Snow Sword Technique.'

Moreover, the He manor's library definitely had this manual, not just possibly.

Because Hu Yaoyao had definitely investigated beforehand and found out that the manual was in the He manor's library.

He Wuhate finally understood. Hu Yaoyao had been scheming to get the 'Falling Snow Sword Technique' and had found out it was in the He manor's library. So, she had devised a plan to trick him.

Tonight, he had inadvertently come to her, borrowed six hundred big dogs, and she had come up with a plan to use this as an excuse to make him sign a promissory note, which would allow her to get the manual.

Although He Wuhate did not know the level of the 'Falling Snow Sword Technique,' he knew that for Hu Yaoyao to scheme so much, it was definitely not a yellow-level technique, but possibly a mystic-level technique.

Thinking about this, He Wuhate cursed inwardly, "Hu Yaoyao, you bitch, you are truly devious, a real heartless monster. No wonder the former Young Master He was so thoroughly deceived by you."
