s meeting." A lazy voice sounded from among the crowd. It belonged to a young man wearing a checkered shirt, around twenty years old, with two beauties in bikinis on either side of him."Huo Xiaochuan,...Chapter 795: Who Among You Isn't Ugly

"What" Yue Yang cried out; she thought she had misunderstood what was said.

The man remained calm and composed, appearing unperturbed: "Miss Yang Shan, as far as I know, the Deputy County Magistrate Meng did give you ten thousand yuan as payment. Am I correct"

"Payment That's a bonus given to Miss Yang Shan!" Yue Yang was indignant. "I can't believe how shameless you are! How much has Miss Yang Shan done for Mu Yuan County She agreed to serve as the county’s goodwill ambassador without any compensation, and Deputy Magistrate Meng felt guilty enough about it to give her ten thousand yuan as a bonus; now you’re saying that was payment and even asking her to return the money"

"Miss Yue Yang, whether it's payment or a bonus, Miss Yang Shan did indeed receive ten thousand yuan. If you don't want to go to Qingfeng Mountain, then fine, I believe finding an adequate guide locally won’t be difficult with that amount of money." The man spoke slowly and steadily: "We are not insisting on having Miss Yang Shan serve as the guide; it’s just that our County Magistrate Wu believes we should take care of Miss Yang Shan, hence he asked her to do this."

"According to you, you’re pitying Miss Yang Shan by making her be your guide" Yue Yang was almost at her breaking point. She had never seen anyone so shameless before: "Fine, it’s just ten thousand yuan! Wait a moment while I go get the money for you; we really aren’t that fond of this sum!"

Yue Yang said as he pulled Yang Shan: "Come on, let's go to the bank to withdraw money. We'll head back to school tomorrow!"

"Alright." At this moment, Yang Shan agreed and felt a bit aggrieved inside. Originally, she had wanted to do something for her hometown, but now it sounded like she was only there for the money. Since this person said they didn't need her as a guide anymore, then there was no reason for her to stay here.

"Shanshan, don't be hasty..." Yang Yujuan, who had been silent all along, finally spoke up.

"Hey, shut up. As if you have any right to call yourself Yang Shan's cousin" Yue Yang was also unhappy with Yang Yujuan. When she first met Yang Shan, she called her Shanshan and said she was Yang Shan's cousin in such an intimate manner; now, however, he hadn't heard her say a single word on Yang Shan's behalf!

Yang Yujuan had a look of awkwardness on her face and wanted to say something but glanced at the man beside her and ended up not saying anything.

"You don't need to give me any money. Since it was given by Deputy County Magistrate Meng, you can just return it to him. I have things to do so I'll take my leave first." The man spoke indifferently and turned his head to look at Yang Yujuan, "Miss Yang, let's go. We're supposed to meet Director Bai for dinner, the time is about right."

This man left after speaking. Seeing Xia Tian and Yun Qing at the door, he seemed a bit surprised but didn't say anything; he quickly passed by them. However, Yang Yujuan greeted Xia Tian when she saw him: "Mr. Xia."

"I'm so angry!" After those two people left, Yao Yang was still seething with rage. "What kind of place is this No wonder it's so poor!"

"Forget it, Yao Yang. Let's go and withdraw the money. Anyway, I haven't spent my 10,000 yuan yet. We'll take out the money and return it to County Magistrate Meng." Although Yang Shan was a bit aggrieved in her heart, she didn't get angry; perhaps anger wasn't part of her emotional makeup.

"Alright." Yao Yang nodded and tugged at Yang Shan as if they were about to leave.

At this moment, Xia Tian swiftly inserted two acupuncture needles into her body. Yao Yang, who was originally extremely excited, suddenly yawned several times in a row.

"Yang Shan, why am I so sleepy all of a sudden" Yao Yang seemed to have trouble even standing straight; she held onto Yang Shan for support. "I can't go now. I need to take a nap first and then go with you to withdraw the money after I wake up..."

Yue Yang hadn't finished speaking when he collapsed and fell into a deep sleep.

Yun Qing couldn't help but glance at Xia Tian; this guy really was amazing. The effect was instantaneous!

"Brother, thank you!" Yang Shan wasn't stupid either. Even though she hadn't seen what Xia Tian did, she could guess that it must have been him who made this happen. Otherwise, how could Yue Yang, who had been unable to sleep all night last night, fall asleep so conveniently upon seeing Xia Tian

"Are you okay now" Xia Tian asked lazily. "If everything's fine, I'll be leaving."

"I'm fine now, thank you for your help," Yang Shan said softly.

Xia Tian immediately took Yun Qing and left without bothering to say anything more to Yang Shan.

The two of them went to the first floor but encountered a group of people in the lobby. There were more than ten people, nearly filling up this small hotel's hall. Among these people, most were individuals that Xia Tian had previously seen, such as Yun Qing’s so-called senior brother Zhong Haoyun and his companions, not to mention that guy who infuriated Ye Yang earlier. Yang Yujuan was also present. Additionally, there were several other men and women; among them, a woman in her twenties dressed up elaborately with makeup, jewelry, and a grand manner, surrounded by multiple people like a big celebrity.

Xia Tian took a closer look at this woman because he found her somewhat familiar. After some thought, he remembered that this woman was indeed an actress.

"What are you looking at" Seeing Xia Tian staring at the woman, Yun Qing seemed slightly jealous and annoyed. What could be so good-looking about this woman She wasn’t even more beautiful than her; she looked like a ghost with all that makeup on, and if she took it off, she might look even uglier.

"That ugly woman, I know her." Xia Tian pointed at the actress and remarked, "Truly, birds of a feather flock together. Ugly women always stick together."

Hearing Xia Tian’s words, Yun Qing was secretly pleased but also somewhat helpless. She was glad that this guy didn’t think the woman was beautiful; he just took an extra look at her because they knew each other. However, his voice was too loud, making everyone nearby hear what he said.

Indeed, now many people were looking over here. The recently disparaged Ou Yang Jin and Yang Yujuan who had met Xia Tian earlier all came over; of course, the female celebrity surrounded by adulation also noticed Xia Tian.

When she saw Xia Tian, the female star's expression changed slightly. Although she had hardly interacted with him directly, she had heard many things about him.

"How dare you say that Who did you call an ugly woman" A woman beside the female star angrily questioned.

"Never mind, it's okay, I don't mind." The female star hurriedly said; she didn't want to conflict with this person or rather, she was actually afraid of him.

Xia Tian lazily added a sentence: "I'm talking about all of you. Who among you isn't an ugly woman"

Yun Qing felt both amused and frustrated. Was this guy only willing to become the enemy of women With that one sentence, he had insulted every woman in the group.

@!! other, Chu Yao walked into the courtyard.The courtyard had many buildings in it, and Xia Tian noticed that this place seemed similar to the Qiao family compound, though it was much smaller in size."M...
