The Substitute Madam Amazes the World Once More Novel - Chapter 200
Chapter 200: New Request
After settling these people from the Qian family, Huo Xuan didn’t even look at Lu Zheng. He went straight to the car door and stared at Mo Zhu intently. His expression darkened as he said seriously, “Didn’t you say that you would wait for me in the car? Why did you get out of the car yourself? It was so dangerous just now. What if you were injured!”
Mo Zhu patted Huo Xuan’s hand comfortingly and replied indifferently, “I was afraid you wouldn’t be able to handle it. So I got out of the car to take a look.”
After saying this, Mo Zhu turned around and opened the car door, preparing to get into the car. Before she could move, Lu Zheng, who had been standing at the side and quietly observing the two of them, changed his expression and said respectfully, “Ms. Mo, I’ve heard a lot about you. I would like to ask you for a small favor.”
“Oh?” Mo Zhu raised her eyebrows and glanced at Lu Zheng indifferently. “You’ve heard a lot about me? Why don’t I know when I became so famous?”
Lu Zheng smiled awkwardly when he heard this. He frowned and explained softly, “I’ve heard a little about Ms. Mo’s reputation as the divine doctor. If you agree to my request, you can decide how much you want to get.”
Upon hearing Lu Zheng’s words, Mo Zhu did not continue the conversation. She stared at him expressionlessly for a long time and seemed to be estimating the price.
After a while, Mo Zhu retracted her gaze. As if she had thought it through, she said bluntly, “It’s fine if you want me to save someone. Organize all the assets of the Lu family. I want the entire Lu family.”
After a pause, Mo Zhu seemed to have recalled something and added, “Also, you called me wrong just now. I’m not the divine doctor you mentioned.”
Although Mo Zhu’s voice was not loud, everyone present still heard her clearly. After hearing her request, Lu Zheng and the subordinates behind him widened their eyes in shock with disbelief.
Lu Zheng frowned tightly. She wants all the assets of the Lu family. For a moment, he did not dare to agree.
As a big family with a hundred years of foundation in Beijing, their main family branch already had a few houses, not to mention about the many collateral branches of the Lu family. Mo Zhu had asked for all of the Lu family’s assets. All of the assets, real estate, and shares were really not a small number.
Lu Zheng pinched the space between his eyebrows without batting an eyelid. He thought for a few minutes before saying in a low voice, “Ms. Mo, the Lu family has too many people. It’s not easy to calculate their assets in a short period of time. Can you change your request?”
Mo Zhu seemed to have expected this answer. She raised her eyebrows and teased, “Sure, if you can’t do it, prepare a suitable coffin for the person you want to save. If Hades wants to take him in, he won’t give you so much time to consider.”
Lu Zheng had never expected Mo Zhu to be such a person. He didn’t expect the rumored fiancée from Huo Xuan’s hometown to have such ability and aura.
Although he was unhappy with Mo Zhu’s attitude, Lu Zheng had to suppress the anger in his heart and continue to persuade her.
“Ms. Mo, if you’re unhappy because I raised the price at the auction tonight and fought for the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb with you, I hereby apologize to you. I hope you don’t take this matter to heart.”
After a pause, Lu Zheng continued politely, “I’m in such a hurry to get the Ten Thousand Aged Pine Snow Herb because I really want to use it to save someone. I really don’t have any other good solution at the moment, so I have no choice but to personally beg Ms. Mo. Ms. Mo, please help the Lu family this time on the account that I’m being so sincere.”
When Mo Zhu heard this, she looked at Lu Zheng in amusement. “I’ve offered the conditions and I’ve given you the chance. It’s not my business whether I can do it or not..”
