Shen Tianyu waited for them to stop arguing as she looked around the Audience Hall and played with her sleeves. Finally noticing that what they were doing was inappropriate, Wen Shiachen and Wen Lingshang finally stopped arguing, one looking at her apologetically the other glaring at her.

"I really do apologize for my wife's poor manners, I let her roam free too much. Hope Miss Shen will forgive." Wen Shiachen laughed awkwardly as he scratched behind his head.

"No need to apologize. As long as it doesn't happen again. Since I am kind, I will let this go this time, but not everyone is as nice as me." Shen Tianyu replied proudly.

"Yes, yes. I will make sure to properly reprimand her later." Wen Shiachen flattered.

Trying to divert the conversation back on topic, Wen Shiachen repeated: "Miss, what would you like as compensation?"

"Compensation?" Shen Tianyu smiled at him. "Can your family afford the compensation for breaking one of our rules and forcing an employee?"

"What 'our rules'?! Who do you think you are?! You are in the Wen Residence! Don't try to flaunt your lowly status here!" Wen Lingshang yelled at her.

Wen Shiachen glared at her but she just turned her head away in anger. Furious, Wen Shiachen had guards bring her away.

"Guards! Come escort Madam back to her house! She needs rest!" Wen Shiachen ordered.

"Wen Shiachen! What do you mean?!" Wen Lingshang stood up in anger and shouted back.

"I am the Master of this house! Since when have you had any say in public matters! Go back and cool your head!"

"Wen Shiachen! You-" As Wen Lingshang started cursing Shiachen, she was dragged off by the guards that came.

Watching Madam Wen being dragged off, Shen Tianyu merely commented.

"Master Wen, you have certainly let your wife roam free."

"Ahaha, I really do apologize. Please forgive, please forgive."

I am not reprimanding you. In fact, I suppport women but women that don't understand common courtesy... tsk, tsk. Well, at least she's straightforward, not like those women of the Imperial Harem that stab you in the heart as they smile brightly at you. Ay..., I really don't know how to feel about this..." Shen Tianyu lamented.

"Yes, yes. Speaking of which, the compensation..." Wen Shiachen reminded. 'She has seen enough embarrassing aspects of our family. I need to hurry up and get her out of here.,' He thought.

"Oh yes. What do you think would be good as compensation? Can you afford the compensation?" Shen Tianyu leisurely replied.

"This..." Wen Shiachen thought: 'Our Wen fmaily has power and money, certainly. But we can't compare to Lavender Palace, ah! We really can't give much!' He glared at his son, he had neglected, rather than spoiled, for so long. 'Damn thing! Causing so much trouble for me!'

Shen Tianyu saw his thought behind his glaring eyes. 'If only you hadn't neglected him and properly taught him, maybe there wouldn't be this trouble today. Sigh. These noble people, they always put the blame on others but not themselves. I should really haggle a good thing and leave soon. I don't want to be contaminated by the toxic air here.' This was her thought as she looked on.

Wen Shiachen finally came back to his senses and said. "Miss Shen, how about you name your price and we will do our best to meet it?"

Shen Tianyu smiled. "Alright. How about... hm... I remember hearing that the Wen family has... a Blood fruit? A thousand year one at that... really amazing ah~" Shen Tianyu said, with a look on her face as if she was in deep thought.

"This..." Wen Shiachen hesitated. The Wen family did indeed have a thousand year old blood fruit but this was a secret family treasure. He hasn't even told Wen Lingshang or Wen Ruocheng about it's existence. How could an outsider like her know?! 'Lavender Palace is really frightening.' He thought.

"How about... that and your Cleansing Pills plus... five million yuan." Shen Tianyu concluded. 'The Wen family, in addition to the thousand year Blood fruit, also had a Cleansing Pill. This should make their soul hurt. Haha.' Shen Tianyu laughed in her heart.

Pills were valuable in this cultivation world, just like many others and Pill Masters all the more. Though the Cleansing Pill was not a high level Pill, it was still quite valuable, not only because it was a Pill but also because of it's use. A Cleansing Pill can cleanse a cultivator of impurities in their bodies, which in turn, can make advancement smoother. Though, Shen Tianyu had no need for it, it would be good for the younger ones to have such a Pill and the more pills she could obtain from outside, the less of a burden it would be on their own Pill masters.

'Besides, Shue'er should be coming back from learning under Tian Yu soon.' She thought further.

As a Doctor and Pill Master, Tian Yu was famous throughout the cultivation world as a genius. Even people living under rocks knew who Tian Yu was. In addition, following the 'all geniuses are eccentrics' trend, he has never taken in a disciple, no matter how much or what someone offered. He only took in disciples he liked and thought were worth his time. However, being a genius, his qualifications are quite high, therefore, he has never had a disciple before Shen Tianyu met him. At the time, she was sheltering a girl with a good sense for medicine. In order to help her later in life and satisfy her thirst for knowledge, Shen Tianyu had brought this "Shue'er" over and talked Tian Yu into taking her in as his disciple, with her businesswoman skills. One would think after Tian Yu woke up from his reverie, he would come back and antagonize her businesses to make trouble for her. But thanks to the exceptional talent of "Shue'er", Tian Yu was actually quite satisfied and even expressed his thanks for giving him such a good disciple. After four years or so, "Shue'er" will finally be let out from her closed door cramming and let out into the real world for some practical experience of her own. And this thousand year bloodfruit, which was a rare and precious medicinal plant, would be a good "Welcome Back" gift.
