Chapter 919 You've been cheated!
But Leon didn't have much time to consider Camilla's thoughts before he felt himself being hugged.
"Hi, Leon, long time no see."
Leon came back to his senses and felt the softness of the chest. Looking at the iconic short blue hair and red dress in his arms, he responded somewhat at a loss.
"Emily, long time no see."
Emily listened to Leon's awkward tone, and reluctantly let go of his hand. She took a small step back, looked up at Leon's face, and jokingly said, "Are you afraid that Abigail will be jealous?"
"Not really, I'm just a little surprised by your enthusiasm." After separating from Emily, Leon felt a lot more relaxed, and his words became more natural.
"Not everyone can enjoy this kind of enthusiasm." After hearing Leon's answer, Emily raised her eyebrows at Leon, looking like a real female hooligan.
Faced with Emily's direct provocation, Leon didn't know how to respond.
"Emily!" Fortunately, Sophia noticed the situation here at this time, and ran over to give Emily a hug.
"Sophia, I haven't seen you in the bar or at home for a long time. You seem to have become more beautiful." Emily was a little dissatisfied with being disturbed, but when she saw it was Sophia, a little bit of resentment instantly dissipated.
At this moment, she happily held Sofia's hands, and after looking at Sofia, she noticed something different.
"Hehe." Sophia smiled silly and tilted her head, obviously very satisfied with Emily's compliment, and she responded generously.
"You've become more beautiful. This skirt is really beautiful. You made it yourself, right?"
"Well, if you like, I can make you a set later."
"Okay, I'll prepare the fabric and dye for you."
The two girls chatted with each other as if no one was around. The atmosphere was very lively and it was obvious that they had a good personal relationship.
Lyon took the opportunity to slip away quietly.
There was no way. He didn't know how to respond to Emily, and Sophia was right next to him. If Emily came to her senses and attacked him again, God knew how much trouble it would cause. If he didn't retreat tactically at this time, staying would definitely be in big trouble.
Leon didn't hide after leaving, but walked towards Abigail.
On the one hand, he wanted to meet up with Abigail and ask her to help resist the firepower from Emily. On the other hand, he wanted to say hello to the owner of the temporary stall, his future father-in-law Pierre, and see what he was selling at this time.
"Leon, would you like to see my special goods? These summer-themed decorations will allow you and Abigail to experience the flavor of the tropical jungle at home, and they're all very affordable!"
As soon as he approached, Pierre waved his arms enthusiastically and greeted Leon.
"Dad." Abigail rolled her eyes at Pierre in annoyance.
"I'm quite interested, but I don't know if there's a family discount." Lyon was thick-skinned and didn't care about Pierre's teasing at all. Instead, he joked along.
"Of course, I can sell it to you at cost price, but as a family member, you have to help me attract some customers." Pierre nodded happily, but he didn't intend to let Leon take advantage of him for free.
Leon said nothing more and approached the stall, intending to see what the goods displayed around Pierre's stall were. At first glance, Leon was attracted by the wooden totem statue standing on the beach, which was more than two meters tall.
The cylindrical light brown wooden pillar remains flat on the top and bottom, but the middle is completely replaced by a statue of a monkey holding a brazier, which is exquisitely carved. The sculpture of the monkey is three-dimensional and the details are also very exquisite. The thickness and layering of the monkey's hair are vividly portrayed, and it looks quite realistic.
"How much is this thing?" The more Leon looked at the totem statue, the more he liked it, so he asked Pierre about the price.
"Others buy 200G, but if you want one, I'll charge you 80G. If you buy two, it'll only cost 150G." Seeing that Lyon was really interested, Pierre immediately became interested.
"This is a traditional ritual totem from the jungle tribe. It's a work of art hand-carved by the best craftsmen in the tribe. I spent a lot of money to get it."
"The Jungle Tribe's totems are burned after use. How could they possibly be sold? Dad, you're lying again."
Leon was stunned by the fright, but Abigail ruthlessly exposed Pierre's false description because she really understood the situation of the jungle people and even knew their customs.
"What do you know about the Jungle Tribe? I'm not lying. This is really something from the Jungle Tribe. The person who sold it to me is a real Jungle Tribe member!" Pierre's face turned red. If the person who was speaking was not her daughter, he would have rolled up his sleeves.
"The distance between the Magro Jungle where the Jungle People live and Stardew Valley basically spans the entire Fingil Republic, and they won't even come out of the jungle. How could they run such a long distance to sell this kind of thing? Dad, you've been cheated." Abigail didn't care about her old father's situation, but continued to make up for it.
Pierre was stunned when he heard this, then looked at Abigail in surprise, his face turned ashen, and even his neck began to become swollen.
"Calm down, Pierre." Leon hurried forward and patted Pierre's back to calm him down, fearing that he would resort to violence because he couldn't argue with Abigail.
Abigail looked at Pierre's embarrassed look in silence, and spread her hands helplessly to show her innocence.
"Damn liar, I actually fell for it."
With Leon's comfort, Pierre finally calmed down, but his expression was still very angry. He was not angry about being confronted by Abigail, but about the fact that he was deceived.
Although he was angry, he was still willing to believe his daughter. If what his daughter said was right, then he was the one who was wrong.
"So, how many of these things did you buy from this jungle tribe member, and how much did you spend on it?" Lyon couldn't help but ask after hearing this.
When Pierre mentioned how much he spent, his face turned pale. "I bought 20 of them, 80g each! Aside from the four I have here, I kept the remaining at home."
"1600G? Mom will kill you." Hearing that Pierre spent so much money on this kind of thing, Abigail complained subconsciously.
"Not only that, most of the other goods I have here are bought from him! No, I have to call the police, this is a blatant scam! I suspect that Morris from the Joja family is setting me up again, I have to go find him!" Pierre was frightened by Abigail's reminder, and then his mind was working rapidly, thinking about solutions, and then he quickly found the answer to the problem.
"What does this have to do with Morris?" Lyon was quite confused when he heard this.
"The so-called jungle man used the Joja family's truck to transport these things. Isn't this enough to prove that he has a relationship with the Joja family?" Pierre asked back.
"Well, from what I understand, the Joja family's trucks can be hired for a fee. Transportation is one of their main industries."
Although Leon didn't like the Joja Group very much, he felt that Morris should be innocent in this matter.
"I still think this is a trap set by Morris. Otherwise, why would that liar come to me on his own initiative?"
