Triplets: Lucky Mommy is a Beautiful Badass

Qi Qingyao pitied herself. An hour had already passed since she had finished setting up her stall, but the number of visitors still remained at zero.

The long wait without customers made her feel as if she was practically rotting away. Occasionally some passer-by would stop and talk to the neighboring stallholders. As for her… Her stall still had no visitors at all!

Even though no one visited, she could not leave as she had to watch over her own stall.

After some time, Qi Qingyao finally saw a strange person among all the "fishes" that had passed her by.

"Jiang Bai, look there." Qi Qingyao pulled on Jiang Yeqian's sleeve.

Jiang Yeqian looked up and saw something interesting. He narrowed his eyes. "Fascinating."

"Why is that person the exception? I can see the cat that it's holding!" Everyone looked like "fishes" to her, but the cat that the "koi fish" was holding was visible to her. It was as if the cat was also affected by the illusion. It glowed a light gold color and Qi Qingyao could not perceive its original appearance.

"That cat is a special fortune cat." Jiang Yeqian narrowed his eyes under his mask. "This fortune cat and the Koi Fish God are of similar nature so, to hide itself within this ghost market, the cat is covered by a light gold-colored glow."

"A fortune cat!" Qi Qingyao was so excited that her eyes were shining.

"Stop salivating over it!" Jiang Yeqian knew what she was thinking as soon as he heard the tone of her voice. "That cat is very valuable."

"So what? I can ask the "fish" if he wants to sell the cat to me." Qi Qingyao looked like she was planning to ask the cat owner.

Jiang Yeqian: "..."

Thanks to the cat, he knew immediately who this man was.

He was definitely Lu Yan, the son of Senluo Trading Company's owner, who was also the wealthiest man in Beiliang!

Qi Qingyao had wanted to run over and ask the owner but, before she could do so, the man had walked far away from her. As she could not leave her stall alone, she had no choice but to sit down again.

She waited for a while more.

Someone finally came. They stood in front of her stall, looked through the display for a while, and said three words, "They're too expensive."

Qi Qingyao: "..." Were they expensive? She had priced them at only a hundred thousand taels! All the herbs were very valuable too!

After a while, another person came.

"Everything here is good stuff, but sadly they're too expensive."

"Condorvine and Red Face Flower! Heavens! Sadly, they're too expensive."

Finally, someone stepped forward and asked tentatively, "Can you sell it for cheaper?"

Qi Qingyao's mind was set. "A hundred thousand taels for everything. No discounts."

"A hundred thousand… It's too expensive."

That person left.

Qi Qingyao: "..."

She was in disbelief.

If she could not sell this bundle of herbs today, then she would not sell it anymore!

"Aren't all the people who visit the ghost market rich and powerful? Why are all of them so stingy? Could they really not have a hundred thousand taels at their disposal?" Qi Qingyao silently cursed.

Jiang Yeqian asked, "Did you think that it was a small sum?"

"..."

It was not, but the people who visited this market should be able to afford it! Qi Qingyao insulted teasingly, "Everyone here is broke!"

Just when Qi Qingyao was beyond desperate, she sensed that the "fishes" here were decreasing in number.

It meant that many of them had managed to buy what they wanted and had left after that.

The number of stalls was also decreasing.

Qi Qingyao discovered that the man holding a golden cat was heading toward them.

He had not left yet.

Qi Qingyao could no longer hold it in. She said to Jiang Yeqian, "Mr. Fortune Cat definitely has the money."

"Yes." He was the son of the wealthiest man in Beiliang! Of course he would have the money!

"Maybe I can promote my herbs to him and ask him if he would buy them," Qi Qingyao said, thumping her chest.
