Capítulo 43: Food

Two heavy steps came down the stairs. An unkempt man held a candle, illuminating the murky space.

"…got fifty thousand."

"The bonus is that big this time?"

"Apparently the buyer is some big name, and he specifically asked for the girl. She’s so pretty. Cuozi keeps drooling. So sad we can’t touch her, and that she’s gonna get taken away tomorrow morning…"

"Hariti came personally this time. I heard there was a big loss. Even one of the creatures got killed."

"Shh! Don’t say those things. What if someone hears?"

"What are you scared of? Other than those creatures, the only things left is the food. Who’s even here to eavesdrop?"

"Did you forget what happened to the last guy who talked? Don’t tell me you want to fill in that blank space."

The other man shivered and did not reply.

Ye Qingxuan listened wordlessly. He sighed in relief. "She’s still here; she hasn’t been taken away yet… She’s still alive. That’s good," he thought.
