The Wolf’s Bride by Coffee’s Tea

Chapter 383

The governor?

That word stunned everyone present.

Even Luna shot a few more glances at Andrius.

Jane could not help but ask, “Rainbow, are you telling the truth? You had dinner with the governor?”

“Of course, it’s true!” Rainbow counted on her fingers. “It wasn’t just the governor. There was also…”

Just as she was about to mention the Four Great War Gods and the Warzone Master, Dax, to show off,

she suddenly felt a cold aura.

She looked up to find Andrius staring at her.

Rainbow quickly closed her mouth.

“There was also?” Jane was curious and wanted to get to the bottom of it.

“There was also…” Rainbow had no choice but to say, “The governor’s secretary, driver, and so on…”

“Oh…” Jane finally calmed down but was still shocked.

The governor…

He was the leader of the East River State! When he spoke, the entire East River State would tremble.

However, Andrius ate at the same table as him.

Jane could not help but ask, “Andrius, do you know the governor?”

Everyone in the Conerys looked at Andrius, including Luna. They were all waiting for his answer.

“Yeah, I know him.” Andrius nodded and casually made up a story. “When the governor went to the

impoverished mountainous areas in the western region to provide aid, his car couldn’t drive on the

muddy roads. I drove him around in a tractor for some time.

“This time, the governor heard that I was in the capital, so he invited me to have a meal and inquired

about the development of my hometown.”

That was what he said.

Rainbow wanted to laugh, but she managed to hold it in.

On the other hand, Jane and the others believed his words and were all fooled by him. They all let out

a breath for some reason. The anticipation and excitement on their faces gradually faded.

What a shame.

If Andrius really had a relationship with the governor, the Conerys would be able to revive in a matter of

minutes.

Unfortunately, there were no ifs.

However, this matter continued to be on everyone’s lipa.

“Andrius.” Luna called out to Andrius and said while walking outside, “Accompany me to the night

market.

“I heard that the capital is most beautiful at 9 p.m. with neon lights flickering, the lights from thousands

of households, and the moon by the river…”

“You can also go buy some gifts. Wrap them up properly and give them to Grandma on her birthday.”

Andrius had no objections.

Treasure Avenue was where medicinal ingredients were sold in the capital.

The two of them went directly to one of the largest and most magnificent shops.

“What would you like to buy, Miss?” A beautiful attendant immediately came up to serve them.

“I want to buy ginseng. It’s best if it’s wild ginseng that is a bit aged,” Luna stated her requirements.

“Please follow me.” The attendant swiftly took Luna to a counter and introduced, “Miss, these are fresh

wild ginseng. They’re at least ten years old.”

Luna glanced over and frowned slightly.

These ginseng…

Their stalks were few, and they were shriveled. It was obvious that they were not aged. They did not

look very appealing.

Luna then asked, “Are there any higher quality ginseng?”

“Of course!”

The attendant opened a cabinet and took out a mahogany brocade box from inside. She opened the

box to reveal a ginseng with three long roots lying inside.

However, Luna only took one look at it and shook her head in disappointment.

New Moon Corporation had stepped into the pharmaceutical industry, so Luna naturally had some

knowledge about ginseng. She could tell the quality of ginseng.

These ginseng did not meet her expectations.

“Do you have any higher quality ones?” Luna asked again.

“Miss…”

The attendant became a little annoyed when Luna kept asking the same question after merely glancing

at the ginseng that she brought up. She asked, “We have many ginsengs, but none of them catches

your eye. Are you just here to cause trouble?”

Luna quickly explained, “I just want to choose the best ginseng for my grandmother, hence my higher

requirements.”

The best ginseng!

The attendant’s eyes lit up, and she said to Luna, “Miss, to tell you the truth, our shop does have top–

grade wild ginseng, but it’s on the third floor. Please follow me.”

After reaching the third floor, the attendant opened a safe and took out a box. The box was beautifully

packaged with red silk and golden threads, making it seem very luxurious.

Luna revealed a pleased expression upon seeing it.

The attendant noticed Luna’s reaction and smiled faintly. Then, she carefully opened the box and said,

Miss, I won’t keep the box open too long in order to prevent the loss of spiritual energy. Please

examine it carefully later.”

Luna felt even more excited by how serious the attendant was acting. She nodded and said, “Okay.”

“Take a good look.”

The attendant put on a pair of gloves and opened the box.

Inside lay a large wild ginseng. It was plump in appearance, had well–developed roots, and a fragrance

that filled the air. It instantly captured Luna’s heart.

“Miss…” The attendant boasted, “This is 30–year–old wild ginseng. It was discovered by our store’s

treasure–hunting team after combing the mountains for over 60 days. Its value is immeasurable. It’s

top- notch whether it’s used as a gift or for nourishing the body.”

Luna could not tear her eyes away from the ginseng. When she heard the attendant’s words, her

excitement grew even stronger. She was immediately tempted and asked, “How much is this ginseng?”

The attendant held up five fingers.

“5-500,000?”

“No.” The attendant shook her head and said seriously, “Five million.”

A single ginseng for five million!

Luna could not help but be astonished.

However, five million was still affordable for her now. Furthermore, as long as she could repair her

relationship with her grandmother’s family, it was worth paying the five million.

Luna weighed the pros and cons, gritted her teeth, and took out her bank card.

“Wait!” Andrius stopped her. When she looked at him in confusion, he said calmly. “This ginseng is

fake.

Don’t be deceived.”
