Chapter 5

Lord Yu Kong nodded: "Then let's leave it at that for now. I still have some things to attend to, so let's stop here."

Saying this, Lord Yu Kong closed the communication.

"Miss Tingyun, Miss Tingyun, something happened, something happened."

Just as Tingyun had closed the communication and sat down, Tingyun's secretary, a lovely-looking fox-person girl, ran in hurriedly from outside the Minghuoshang Society and pushed open the door to Tingyun's office.

"How big of a deal is it?"

Seeing the actions of this fox-person girl, Tingyun felt a bit helpless and sighed lightly: "How long have you been with me? Can't you be more steady? What happened to make you so flustered?"

If she continues to be so flustered, this won't do.

What big deal could happen to the Minghuoshang Society nowadays? If something truly big happened, someone would have notified her immediately.

She has been with her for so long and handled so many things, so how could she be so rash?

"It's bad, Miss Tingyun, we've been scammed."

This fox-person girl hurriedly handed the bill in her hand to Tingyun: "Look, this is the bill sent from the Bu Ye Hou shop."

"The bill sent from the Bu Ye Hou shop?"

Hearing this, Tingyun's expression was suddenly surprised: "What kind of big deal is this? And why would the Bu Ye Hou shop send a bill?"

For no reason, why would the Bu Ye Hou shop send a bill?

"The maid from the Bu Ye Hou shop said that our Minghuoshang Society's Guest Advisor consumed goods at the Bu Ye Hou shop and said to put the bill on our Minghuoshang Society, asking us to pay. I saw the bill was for a full four million Credits."

This fox-person girl's face flushed red: "Someone scammed us directly at our Minghuoshang Society. Since when did our Minghuoshang Society have a Guest Advisor?"

You have to know, this is four million Credits, an astronomical figure.

She didn't remember her Minghuoshang Society having a Guest Advisor position!

So someone scammed them at their Minghuoshang Society, and it was even shifting the blame!

"What?!"

Hearing this, Tingyun, who was originally a bit surprised, had an expression of shock: "How is that possible?"

You have to know, although the Sleepless Earl shop is located on the bustling Xuanye Avenue, it is ultimately just a teahouse.

How high can the consumption at a teahouse be?

Isn't it just drinking tea and listening to stories? It's a place that almost every Xianzhou person can afford, and it shouldn't cost much money.

Some tea there can even be refilled; how could it consume such an astronomical figure!

Even going to those places to listen to music wouldn't cost this much.

But the Bu Ye Hou shop couldn't possibly scam their Minghuoshang Society!

Immediately, Tingyun hurriedly took the bill to look at it.

When she saw the lines of text on it, Tingyun's face suddenly turned green.

This guy, how dare he!

She had just thought about arranging for this person first and giving him a nominal Guest Advisor status, but in the blink of an eye, this guy gave her a surprise!

【Life Tea, seven cups, fifty thousand Credits per cup, total three million five hundred thousand Credits】

Looking at the first bill, Tingyun's eyes went straight, and her face flushed red.

Life Tea, isn't that the Bu Ye Hou shop's signature tea?

She herself couldn't bear to drink this tea, and this guy drank seven cups directly???

Looking further down.

【Fried Yellow-Stamen Tea Cakes, six plates, fifty thousand per plate, total three hundred thousand Credits】

Seeing these tea cakes, Tingyun almost fainted.

These tea cakes are indeed famous, but people usually eat them one piece at a time, and this guy ordered them plate by plate?

Is this guy a pig? How could he eat so much!

Looking at the scattered items below, Tingyun only felt like she was going to have a cerebral hemorrhage.

She hadn't earned much this month, and this guy consumed so much at a teahouse in the blink of an eye!

"Miss Tingyun, we must have encountered a scammer."

Looking at Tingyun's changing expression, the little maid from the Minghuoshang Society hurriedly spoke: "I'll notify the Cloud Knights to arrest that guy right now."

"No, go find this guy first."

Tingyun slapped the table in anger: "He is indeed our Minghuoshang Society's Guest Advisor, appointed just a short while ago."

Saying this, Tingyun walked outside.

She wanted to go see how this guy managed to consume so much!

And the Minghuoshang Society maid beside her was frozen; was that guy really their Minghuoshang Society's Guest Advisor?

And it was personally appointed by Chief Tingyun?

How come she didn't know?

Immediately, this fox-person maid hurriedly followed: "Wait for me, Miss Tingyun."
