"Well, this saves me some trouble."
A smile graced Zheng Yi's lips as he saw Li Yang approaching.
However, his smile quickly froze. Li Yang was holding the orchid, but the fruit that had been growing on it was gone.
"Li Yang," Zheng Yi said, his gaze darkening as he looked at him.
Li Yang had also spotted Zheng Yi. "Oh, it's you," he said calmly. "Do you still want to buy this orchid?"
Zheng Yi acted as if he hadn't heard. In a low voice, he demanded, "I'm asking you, where is the fruit that was on this orchid?"
"The fruit?" A thought crossed Li Yang's mind.
'Zheng Yi must have recognized the fruit. Too bad it's already been refined by me.'
With this thought, Li Yang said nonchalantly, "Fruit? I think there was one, but I got a little hungry and ate it."
His expression was completely casual.
To be honest, the Zheng family was the very reason the Zhao family had driven his mother out—they were the ones the Zhaos were so desperate to please.
