"Two stalks?"
Lily's expression darkened. "You must be joking. I might believe you if you said that it’s worth a first-grade intermediate spirit grass. You're telling me it's worth first-grade premium spirit grass—and two stalks, at that! Do you realize the sheer value of that?"
"No, no. It's definitely worth two stalks of first-grade premium spirit grass. Trust me!’
Hudson tilted his head.
"No way. Two stalks of first-grade intermediate spirit grass, at most!"
Lily was also a stubborn person. She folded her arms over her chest, her features twisted into a flippant expression.
"All right. I take it that you don't want to grab an opportunity to kill Fane. All right then!"
Frostiness tinged the corners of Hudson's lips. He wheeled around and stalked out.
He was well aware that aside from wanting her son to come back alive, Lily desperately wanted to kill Fane.
He did not believe that Lily would be able t o resist that idea.
"Wait!"
Lily immediately called out to Hudson when she heard that it was an opportunity t o kill Fane.
She flipped a palm and took two stalks of first-grade premium spirit grass, thrusting i t toward Hudson. "Tell me. What news do you have?"
Hudson swiped the spirit grass away and grinned. "You truly are generous, First Madam," he said. "In all honesty, Fane is digging a grave for himself! I overheard him and his wife talking just now. He said that he was going to the branch families tomorrow to meet them!"
