"Given Miss Nan's current reputation for Dream Clothing Shop, it seems unnecessary for me to participate in the auction," Xiao Yi raised an eyebrow.

"I simply believe that this special arrangement is very suitable for Your Highness Prince Yi, which is why I have taken the liberty of inviting Your Highness to participate." Of course, Nan Wusi wouldn't be foolish enough to reveal that she wanted Prince Yi to restrain the Crown Prince during the auction.

"What exactly makes this special customization so special? Why don't you tell me, Miss Nan? Perhaps I'll be interested in participating." Xiao Yi propped his head up with one hand and looked at Nan Wusi with his white eyes.

"Your Highness, for certain reasons, I am unable to explain in detail. I can only reveal a little bit: if Your Highness participates in this special customization, things will definitely go smoothly for you recently." Nan Wusi subtly mentioned the luck bonus of the clothes, but it sounded like a charlatan.

"Oh? Your special customization actually has such a function?" Xiao Yi smiled, but it was clear that he didn't believe it at all.

"Your Highness, there's no harm in giving it a try," Nan Wusi said with a smile, trying his best to appeal to his emotions and reason with him.

"Then I will go and see. I hope Miss Nan's special request will not disappoint me." Xiao Yi finally nodded and agreed to attend.

Nan Wusi was overjoyed and immediately declared, "If Your Highness wins this spot, I promise I will not disappoint you."

Having received the guarantee, Nan Wusi left Prince Yi's mansion with great joy. He then took Hu Zi's mother to the weaving workshop, informed the manager of the new quantity needed, and introduced Hu Zi's mother to him.

In this way, Tiger's mother can directly find the manager of the weaving workshop in the future, so as not to delay the business of Lan Yi Fang.

At Prince Yi's residence, as soon as Nan Wusi left, Xiao Yi's expression immediately changed.

"Xuanli, you've become increasingly impatient lately."

"Your subordinate knows his mistake." Xuan Li also knew that his overreaction today was inappropriate.

"I didn't say that your surprised reaction was wrong, but why did you panic and apologize to me afterward? You must remember that I am just a carefree and idle prince. Don't give yourself away when you're with others." Xiao Yi rubbed his temples, feeling somewhat exhausted.

"Oh, okay, I won't do it again," Xuan Li immediately assured him, then asked timidly, "Your Highness, do I still need to receive punishment?"

"Sigh, I'll let you off this time." Xiao Yi sighed.

"Thank you, Your Highness." Xuan Li thanked him sincerely. He didn't want to go back to be punished. Every time he made a mistake and went to be punished, he would be beaten half to death.

All the clothes in Lan Yi Fang were sold out, so the shop had to close temporarily. Nan Wusi asked Hu Zi Niang to post a notice of temporary closure at the shop entrance, and Hu Zi Niang returned to work at Meng Yi Fang.

"Sister Fang, Lan Yi Fang is closed for the next few days, so you should stay home and spend more time with Hu Zi. You don't need to come to Meng Yi Fang." Nan Wusi had originally agreed to give Hu Zi's mother a day off, but Hu Zi's mother refused and still came.

"Master, I really can't stay idle." Tiger's mother felt that if she stayed at home, she would be letting down the wages that Nan Wusi paid her.

“You’re the manager of Lan Yi Fang now,” Nan Wusi reminded her, as Tiger’s mother still always felt inferior.

"Hmm," Tiger's mother simply responded, but didn't say she wanted to go back.

"Fine," Nan Wusi said helplessly, "I can only let Tiger's mother have her way."

Unexpectedly, Li Lanru came to the store today. Nan Wusi thought she wouldn't come this week.

"Nan Wusi, your Dream Clothes Shop is doing both pre-orders and auctions. What, are you making yourself look so noble?" Li Lanru said sarcastically as usual, seemingly uncomfortable if she didn't mock Nan Wusi.

“Miss Li, if you are not satisfied with the way my Dream Clothes Shop operates, you don’t need to come here to seek attention. My Dream Clothes Shop is not short of customers these days.” Although customers are paramount, Nan Wusi did not want to indulge Li Lanru, as she was not a very good-tempered person.

"Is there anything wrong with someone of my noble status enjoying the seemingly high-class services of your Dream Clothing Shop?" Li Lanru actually found her own explanation, although it sounded rather shameless.

"Then please, Miss Li, state your request, shall we?" Although Nan Wusi was quite speechless, Li Lanru did not retort, so she naturally would not go out of her way to make herself uncomfortable.

So the two of them sat down in a rare calm and explained their requests one by one, and even started to discuss them, because Nan Wusi felt that some of Li Lanru's requests were not suitable for her own temperament.

Seeing that the two were about to start arguing again, Nan Wusi finally backed down and proposed a new solution, "Miss Li, we can choose two styles, so one of them I will design completely according to your requirements, and the other I will design according to my own ideas. You can try them on and compare them, okay?"

Li Lanru actually thought about this question seriously, and finally nodded, agreeing with Nan Wusi's suggestion.

“If you don’t do it well, I’ll make you redo it,” Li Lanru said haughtily, raising her chin.

“Okay.” Nan Wusi nodded in agreement. This was a normal request from a customer, so she naturally wouldn’t object.

So the two finally reached an agreement, and Li Lanru cooperated by taking her measurements before leaving.

"Miss, what if Miss Li deliberately causes trouble and makes you keep redoing things?" Ye Zi asked worriedly after Li Lanru left, knowing that Li Lanru had always disliked her young mistress.

"If she was deliberately trying to cause trouble, your young lady wouldn't be so foolish as to swallow her anger knowing someone is picking a fight. Don't worry," Nan Wusi comforted her, as she wasn't someone to be trifled with either.

As for Li Lanru's request, it wasn't difficult. She simply wanted her to look more noble and more like a legitimate daughter.

Li Lanru, despite being born out of wedlock, has always been pampered and provided with the same level of luxury as a legitimate daughter, as evidenced by her daily attire. Nan Wusi couldn't understand why she insisted on making herself appear even more noble; was her sense of inferiority regarding her status really that profound?

Nan Wusi could actually see through Li Lanru's usual feigned arrogance; Li Lanru had confined her image too rigidly, like an ugly duckling pretending to be a peacock.

Even knowing that Li Lanru's arrogance was all an act, it didn't stop Nan Wusi from disliking her. Li Lanru's arrogance stemmed from stepping on other people's sore spots, and her deliberate belittling and mockery of Nan Wusi originated from this.

Nan Wusi didn't spend too much time preparing for Li Lanru's two outfits. She had already had an idea when she talked to Li Lanru about it, and could simply select them from the system shop.

She is now focusing more on the auction three days from now.
