Standing beside Changgui was none other than Huo Lian.
When did he manage to extricate himself from palace affairs?
Huo Lian looked at Chen Muxue, sharing the same thoughts, but neither showed much surprise on their faces, just polite smiles.
"Huo Lian! Look at the person you've brought! As soon as this woman arrived, she asked for ten thousand taels. I think she's entangled with our Huo Family with ill intentions!"
Master Huo seemed embarrassed for a moment upon seeing Huo Lian, but his mind, full of fat, quickly shifted the blame to Chen Muxue.
Chen Muxue considered she was already carrying an iron pot on her back, so it was unnecessary to bear another black pot.
Little Hua immediately scoffed, "Fat Grandpa is lying! He's the one who promised to give the Sect Leader ten thousand taels, then suddenly changed his face. That maid even called us beggars!"
