And I dont know how to config Global.asax or web.config file to approach this. And I dont know what would be the service reference url(If the ApiController name is Service and the method in it is UpdatePrice)?

2yes make a http request. web api is just a rest service which should be accessed over http. – Marian Ban Oct 15 '14 at 06:37

You have to make an HTTP request from the application to the WEBAPI action URL you want to access using HttpClient. WEBAPI is a REST based HTTP service, so you can access it only via HTTP unlike WCF on this context.
You can refer here for more information and code samples on this.
