Chapter 19

With the conversation reaching this point, even if Luo Feifan had a thick skin, he couldn't just ask for something for free. Mrs. Sun's own matters were hers, but her granddaughter's fiancé was from the royal Feng family. As the head of the family, he had to maintain some dignity.

After a long pause, he said, "Give her two million."

Feng Ling gave Luo Feifan a meaningful look and smiled, "From what I know, the highest bid on the gemstone street just now was 2.6 million." He didn't say anything about the interstellar currency being too little, but anyone with a brain could understand the implication.

To actually find it insufficient? Luo Feifan felt both embarrassed and angry. He took a deep breath and gritted his teeth, "2.6 million, then 2.6 million."

His branch of the family appeared respectable on the surface in Zhihuang Star, but in reality, they didn't have much wealth. Moreover, they had already spent a lot to help Luo Yan pass the apprentice test. Taking out another 2.6 million was truly painful for him.

"Grandfather, 2.6 million is too much." Luo Yan couldn't hold back any longer and glared at Luo Bi, "To ask for so much interstellar currency from family, aren't you ashamed?"

"I am ashamed, but I don't want to sell at all." Luo Bi shot back without any courtesy. Her voice was low, and her demeanor was calm, which made her even more infuriating to look at.

"Grandfather, look at her!" Luo Yan pouted, "She just doesn't like me."

Hua Chen was someone she had obtained through underhanded means, and because she was aware of this, she always felt that Luo Bi was targeting her.

Luo Feifan looked at Luo Bi with a complex expression and scolded, "Don't talk nonsense. Luo Bi is just saying it out of anger."

Feng Ling called Luo Bi aside and asked for her opinion. Luo Bi still said, "I won't sell." She wouldn't sell to Luo Yan either.

Feng Ling frowned, "I personally suggest you ask for more interstellar currency and sell it. Your grandfather has already stepped in, and it's not good to make things too awkward."

Feng Ling was confident he could get another 300,000 to 500,000 interstellar currency from Luo Feifan. Luo Yan urgently needed a third-grade or higher Bi Fei stone, and it just so happened that Luo Bi had gambled and won one. As a member of the Luo family, if Luo Bi refused to sell even for interstellar currency, it would likely cause dissatisfaction among the other Luo family members.

"My things, I decide. I won't sell, no matter how much interstellar currency you offer." Luo Bi had already made up her mind. If she couldn't keep the red Bi Fei stone, she would rather give it to Feng Ling. While she didn't know Feng Ling's character, his adept handling of the situation with the old man showed that he was a shrewd and difficult person to deal with. Handing the red Bi Fei stone to such a person, it was uncertain whether the old man could get it back.

As long as Luo Yan was frustrated, Luo Bi would be satisfied.

Feng Ling had to admit, she was quite stubborn. He glanced at her and then went to talk with Luo Feifan.

"Luo Bi, come here." Luo Feifan, feeling angry, called Luo Bi over. He tried to appear kind and gentle, "Luo Yan is just being childish. As her elder sister, why should you take it to heart? For a family to thrive, harmony is key. Siblings shouldn't quarrel over trivial matters."

He was subtly referring to the Hua Chen incident.

Luo Feifan's words, at first glance, seemed to be scolding Luo Yan for being childish, but upon closer inspection, they carried the implication that Luo Bi was petty.

Luo Bi lifted her eyelids and watched Luo Feifan closely, letting him continue to see just how biased he could be.
