C9 (1/2)

After testing out all the clothes in the embroidery workshop, Xiao Ran Xi reluctantly changed back into her own clothes. She sat beside Xiao Su and mumbled, ”Why hasn't that woman come yet?”

Xiao Su raised her brows, ”Ran Xi, did you arrange to meet someone here?”

Xiao Ran Xi waved her hand, ”That's not it. That woman stayed at home for four years. I heard that she only appeared at the embroidery workshop the day before yesterday. That's why I'm here.”

So you can't be sure that the guy you're waiting for is back... Trying clothes is just for fun?

Xiao Su was speechless, but she noticed something else, ”It has been four years since we last met, the person that Ran Xi wants to meet is Miss Lu?”

Rather than saying that she hadn't seen anyone in four years, it would be more accurate to say that from the very beginning, Miss Lu had never publicly revealed herself, only that no one had noticed and no one had investigated her appearance. Otherwise, after Seventh Prince spread word of her ugly appearance, he wouldn't have treated her as a label for real.

”Yeah, it's her. She scared Xiao Qi so much that she cried for three days and three nights. Shouldn't she be held responsible?”

”However, it's said that she's very good-looking when she shows up in public. I'm sure that Xiao Qi isn't crying because she's ugly, but asking her about it, not to mention what happened at that time, even I, the royal sister, can't tell her. This is simply going too far!”

Xiao Su, ”...”

Xiao Ran Xi's eyes lit up as she said, ”That's why I want to ask Lu JinNian about it. I want to find out about Xiao Qi's secret, and anger him to death!”

Xiao Su thought that if Lu JinNian really wanted to hide something, it would be harder for him to talk to her than the Seventh Prince. However, he wouldn't remind Xiao Ran Xi.

Originally, he thought that Lu JinNian was very interesting, but if she was secretly active in the dark and didn't have any influence on that matter, he wouldn't have spent too much energy to pay attention to her.

The one who disturbed her emotional state was the embroidery workshop manager, Wenqiu. Every day, the embroidery workshop would only meet one or two customers that didn't buy anything. Some of them didn't even intend to buy clothes at the time, only taking a look.

There were some who were really short on money and could only try their luck. Wenqiu didn't really care, but this was the first time she had tried out all the styles of clothes and everything after that, just like Xiao Ran Xi.

He was still here to keep an eye on her. He had to get her away and let her know.

Wenqiu had the attendant of the embroidery workshop display all the clothes Xiao Ran Xi had just tested on on on his arm. She walked over to her side with a smile and asked, ”Esteemed customer, may I ask if you are satisfied with any of these clothes?”

Most of the aristocratic families in Liang Jing were making clothes here. As long as they didn't deliberately ruin the place and offend the masses, they wouldn't say that the embroidery workshop's clothes were unsatisfactory.

Xiao Ran Xi didn't think too much about it. She raised her chin and swept her gaze over her clothes. She then picked out two pieces, ”This one and this one.”

Wenqiu was about to pick out these two items and put them away when he heard Xiao Ran Xi continue, ”These two items are not needed. Wrap the rest of them up for me.”

Even though he had managed the business for many years, the experienced and knowledgeable Wenqiu was also stunned. This was the first time in his life that he had learned what 'surging qi into the sky' was.
