Chapter 358 The Honest Man

Aiden was still fuming—this country boy had the nerve to dismiss her!

"Aiden, is our bet still on?" Daniel asked with a chuckle.

"Yes, of course, it's on! Even though you're a jerk, your money's real. I’m betting with you becauseof the cash in your account," Aiden replied.

Pointing to a row of shelves on the left, she said, "But you can only pick from this row."

Aiden wasn't one to suffer a loss easily. She had directed him to a shelf filled with common herbs—nothing of significant value. That way, even if she lost the bet, her loss wouldn't be substantial. Butdeep down, she was confident she wouldn't lose. Even if this country boy had found a high-qualityHe Shou Wu, it was only worth five million—far from 150 million.

Daniel glanced at the indicated row of shelves and couldn’t help laughing. The very herb he wantedwas on that shelf.

Seeing Daniel's laughter, Aiden's suspicion was piqued. "What're you laughing at?"

"I'm laughing at Aiden!"

"At me?" Aiden's face darkened as she snapped, "I knew you were laughing at me! What about?"

"I'm laughing because the more stingy Aiden is, the bigger loss she’ll suffer. When you lose, don’tcry because I won’t offer you a tissue. I just love seeing beautiful women cry. The sadder you are,the more beautiful it looks!"

"I’m not going to lose! When you lose, don’t even think about reneging on that 100 million. If youdare to try and weasel out of it, I won't let you leave Herbal Loon!"

"Rest assured, Aiden, I'm a man who honors his bets. Since we've made the bet, I won’t back out.It's just one hundred million, right? It's merely change; I don’t care about it."

With that, Daniel pointed at the same row of shelves Aiden had pointed to earlier, confirming, "Yousaid this row, right? If I win, I can pick any herb from this row."

"Yes, that row!" Aiden confirmed.

"Within your Herbal Loon, there's an herb that's invaluable. One of them is in this stainless steelbasin, and the other on the shelf you just pointed out. So, Aiden, if you regret letting me take allyour valuable herbs in one fell swoop, you can back out now and point me to a different shelf."

Daniel spoke nothing but the absolute truth but Aiden didn't see it that way. She thought the countrybumpkin was bluffing her. So she said with a smile, “Are you trying to trick me, country boy? Youthink I’m a gullible three-year-old girl?”

"Ah, Aiden, I'm telling the truth and you don’t believe me? It’s hard to be a man, even harder to bean honest and upright one."

"Heh," Aiden couldn't help but let out a cold laugh, then rolled her eyes at Daniel.
