Chapter 47 The sky-high asking price
The doorbell rang, and the two people immediately jumped away as if they had done something bad.
Xia Tang stood up and gathered her hair: "I'll go... I'll go open the door."
Mistu tasted sweetness for the first time and was completely in a state of confusion. He nodded in a daze with a red face.
Xia Tang walked downstairs quickly. She guessed it was Baen, but Baen was most concerned about being well-dressed, so she quickly bowed and apologized when she opened the door:
"I'm sorry I got up late today. I'll go back and change my clothes... Eh? Lambert?"
There was no sign of Barn outside the house, but instead there was a curly-haired Lambert.
Lambert looked embarrassed.
"How did you come?"
Xia Tang stood up. As soon as she looked at Lambert, she realized something was wrong. She took out the harmonica from her pajamas pocket and handed it to Lambert, asking in a low voice:
"I see, do you want this?"
Lambert was a little surprised. He didn't come here for this matter: "No..."
He turned around and saw Mistu coming down from upstairs, so he immediately changed his words:
"Yes, can you accompany me back to the ancient museum? I'm a little scared to go alone."
"You weren't afraid when they stole it, but you are afraid now?"
Xia Tang tied her hair into a bun, and couldn't bear to see Lambert's anxious face:
"Okay, I'll go back with you while I get dressed."
"Where are you going?" Mistu heard Xia Tang was leaving as soon as he came downstairs, and immediately said, "I'm going too."
Lambert pulled Xia Tang towards him and whispered in her ear:
"If Mistu knew, he wouldn't have kept it a secret for me."
Xia Tang looked at Mistu's wary gaze and felt that Lambert's words were not groundless, so he said to Mistu:
"You've just recovered, so you should stay home and rest. I promise to be back soon."
Mistu was visibly reluctant.
Xia Tang hugged Mistu gently.
"I'll be back soon, don't worry." Xia Tang gently instructed: "Be obedient and don't follow me secretly, or I will ignore you."
"Ok."
Xia Tang got into Lambert's car, which was still a flashy one.
"Oh right, I'll send a message to Mr. Baines so he doesn't make a wasted trip."
"Actually..." Lambert drove very fast: "I lied. We are not going to the ancient museum. We are going to rescue Barn. He is in trouble."
"what?"
"Princess Margaret also saw your live broadcast yesterday. She wanted to buy out your paintings, but she couldn't contact you, so she found Barn and me."
“I haven’t received any communication from her.”
Xia Tang opened Xingnao. She received millions of private messages every day, and it was impossible for her to open and check every one of them.
"She is impatient and wants to get what she wants immediately." Lambert shook his head: "She has always been like this since she was a child."
"The information of the females in the Empire is always very private. Even if she is a princess, she can't retrieve your information at will. But she knows Barn and my addresses very well."
As the two were talking, they arrived at the place where the spaceship was parked. Lambert had his own spaceship, which was covered with diamonds and sequins and did not look like a common means of transportation.
"Then you should have just said it straight." Xia Tang scratched his hair after entering: "Why did you lie?"
Lambert turned on the autopilot and set the speed to the highest setting:
"Ever since Barn's parents passed away, he doesn't like to show his emotions, especially when he's frustrated. Margaret may not torture him now. I'm his best friend, so I'll just let her see it. Mistu... is an outsider after all."
Xia Tang recalled her interactions with Barn during these days. He was indeed a man who never showed his emotions, and always looked decent and steady. It turned out that it was because he had lost his parents that he locked up his heart and emotions.
The spacecraft soon arrived at the main star, and Lambert's other car was parked at the exit.
"You have so many means of transportation." Xia Tang concluded.
"I like cars and spaceships that can take me anywhere." Lambert gripped the steering wheel tightly:
"The house is worse. I don't like staying in the same place all the time. There was a time when I slept in a spaceship. I didn't know where I would wake up the next day. It gave me a sense of unknown pleasure."
Xia Tang nodded: "I see, no wonder there are so many things in your car, including food, drinks, clothes and shoes. It's like a small house."
Lambert smiled and quickly pointed out the window: "We're here. This is Barn's manor."
"Here?! Are you sure?"
Xia Tang was shocked. The manor in front of him was lush and green, with many beautiful plants, endless trees, and even a small blue lake. The most important thing was that there was a castle-like building hidden in the trees, which was very solemn and dignified.
Before entering the door, Xia Tang looked up. She had never seen a door so tall and wide. It was as if a giant was about to enter.
There were several people standing at the door. Xia Tang carefully identified them and found that they were the males who were around Princess Margaret in the ancient museum that day.
The quarreling and cursing inside was extremely harsh.
"Did you hear me when I told you to take me there quickly?" Margaret's voice came from inside.
"It is a basic professional ethics that tutors cannot disclose students' addresses at will."
"What kind of bullshit ethics is this?"
Then there was the sound of a whip hitting the ground.
Xia Tang was startled and ran in quickly. Baan's clothes were torn and tattered, obviously having been whipped.
"Barn!" Lambert ran over: "Are you okay?"
Xia Tang took a breath.
"Hey, your good student is here."
Seeing Xia Tang, Margaret put away the whip and felt much better. Xia Tang was surprised at her mood swings. She was so angry just now, but now she was so kind and cheerful. The key point was that she was not pretending, but was really feeling it.
"Princess Margaret." Xia Tang placed his hand on her shoulder and bowed slightly, saluting Margaret as Barn had taught him before.
Margaret raised her chin proudly: "Bane taught you well!"
Xia Tang looked at Baan, who was forbearing, and couldn't help but ask for justice for him: "Why is the princess like this?"
"The Royal Ball is about to begin," Margaret said, taking out a dress:
"The dress I ordered earlier used elements of ancient combat equipment, but you also drew the same pattern on this dress during your live broadcast yesterday. I don't want anyone to have the same style as me before the ball."
"You can come to me directly." Xia Tang was a little angry: "Instead of embarrassing my teacher here. Not to mention that Barn was once your tutor. Even if he is just a strange male, you have no right to break into his home and threaten him like this!"
"Here are five million star coins."
Margaret didn't want to waste words with Xia Tang: "If someone asks you to design a dress or provide a pattern, just refuse it directly."
Xia Tang sat down, and where her agent couldn't see her, she imitated how she used to talk about the conditions: "I get to set the conditions."
"Ten million."
Xia Tang still shook his head.
Margaret was obviously surprised. Ten million star coins was not a small amount, especially for a young female like Xia Tang who had no roots and no relatives.
"Then how much did you say?"
Xia Tang stretched out a finger.
"One hundred million?" Margaret was a little surprised. She had never seen anyone dare to ask for such a high price in front of her.
