Chapter 202 Cooperation

“It’s really good.”

After coming back to her senses and looking at her, Yue Ruyan smiled charmingly: "Mrs. Wei, why don't we find a place to discuss the cooperation in further detail?"

This statement was enough to show her attitude. The formula provided by Shen Xiangwan was absolutely attractive to any woman. What's more, they were doing a man's business. The quality of a girl's skin would directly affect their appearance and also affect the success of their business. Therefore, even if she knew that Shen Xiangwan had some calculations, she was willing to get involved and even become a pawn in her hands.

Having expected that she would not refuse, Shen Xiangwan stood up by supporting the armrest of the chair: "No need to be so troublesome, Manager Sun, can you provide us with a relatively quiet room? I have some private matters to discuss with Boss Yue."

"ah?"

Manager Sun was stunned for a moment, then immediately said, "No problem, please follow me."

While speaking, Manager Sun also turned sideways and made a gesture of invitation. They were all big customers of the pawnshop, and he could still make the decision on such a small matter as providing them with rooms.

"Um."

After looking at each other, they took steps at the same time. After they left, the crowd walked towards the girl who was testing the medicine and observed her transformation closely. Some even wanted to see how Shen Xiangwan used the remaining ointment, but were blocked by the guards who suddenly appeared. Anyone with a brain knew how big a sensation this formula would cause once it was leaked. Even if Shen Xiangwan didn't give special instructions, they would not let anyone have the opportunity to fish in troubled waters.

"I wonder what Madam Wei needs me to do?"

In the quiet room, Yue Ruyan and Chen Xiangwan sat opposite each other. They had already wasted enough time here, so Yue Ruyan didn't say anything more and went straight to the point as soon as she opened her mouth.

"It's simple. I want you to suppress Hehuan Tower as much as possible, seize their resources, and strike at Shen Xiangyue's confidence, so that she can't survive in the Land of Fireworks."

The other party was straightforward, so Shen Xiangwan didn't beat around the bush with her. Shen Xiangyue was able to become the most beautiful courtesan in Hehuan Tower in such a short period of time, relying not only on her scheming and tricks, but also on her pretty good looks, as well as the talent and knowledge she had cultivated in the Prime Minister's Mansion for more than a decade.

She believed that Huanxi Tower must have women who were good at music, chess, calligraphy and painting, and they should all be good-looking. If each of them had skin as white as cream and were as beautiful as peaches and plums, it would not be difficult to win back the lost customers, or even to snatch more customers from Hehuan Tower.

As for men, most of them still care about appearance and figure. As long as they can surpass Shen Xiangyue in appearance, what does it matter if she is more talented and knowledgeable?

The last time she was ambush, it was most likely Shen Xiangyue's doing. Yuan Xiu and the others are still unable to confirm it because there are too many people pursuing her and they cannot lock on the target. Once those cover is gone, it should soon come to light whose power she used to send people to ambush her.

Of course, she could also just have someone kill Shen Xiangyue, regardless of whether she was the mastermind behind it or not, but she didn't want to miss any possibility. If her guess was wrong, the mastermind behind her murder would be hiding in the dark and waiting for an opportunity to act, which would not be a good thing for her.

Even if her guess was correct, the other party could be used by Shen Xiangyue, and must have a very close connection with her. If she rashly killed Shen Xiangyue, it would only make the other party resentful and hide in the dark waiting for an opportunity to strike. Even if she was not afraid, it would still be a bit annoying. What she wanted was to hit them with one blow, uproot them directly, and completely eliminate the hidden danger.

"You have a grudge against Shen Xiangyue."

Yue Ruyan seemed to be asking a question, but her tone was affirmative. If there was no grudge, why would she go to so much trouble to do something that seemed to her to be completely meaningless?

Moreover, if I remember correctly, they were both from the Prime Minister's Mansion, and she was a legitimate daughter. However, she said that she had never received any care from the Prime Minister's Mansion. On the other hand, Chen Xiangyue, as an adopted daughter, was proficient in everything from playing the piano, chess, calligraphy and painting. No matter how you look at it, there must be some conflicts between them.

"Well, it can barely be considered a life-and-death relationship."

Shen Xiangwan did not deny it. Anyway, she had already said everything she should and should not say. Only by letting her know how deep the grudge between them was, would she feel more at ease to cooperate with her.

"hehe···"

Mrs. Wei is such a wonderful person!

Yue Ruyan couldn't help laughing out loud. If it weren't for the huge difference in their status, she really wanted to make friends with Mrs. Wei. Her intuition told her that they should be able to get along very well.

Tsk tsk...

So beautiful!

Looking at her smile, Shen Xiangwan couldn't help but marvel at it. She thought she had seen many handsome men and beautiful women. Not to mention those far away, her own and Wei Chengyi's looks were both top-notch, but Yue Ruyan's beauty still made her look sideways. She had fair and delicate skin, exquisite and gorgeous facial features, beautiful eyes, smiling cheeks, and a fragrance like orchids. She had a charming and moving demeanor. If she were a man, she would have fallen at her feet long ago.

"Huanxi Tower and Hehuan Tower are originally competitors. During this period, the rise of Shen Xiangyue has also affected the business of Huanxi Tower. Therefore, even if Madam Wei doesn't say anything, I will suppress them as much as possible. Madam Wei is destined to suffer a loss in this deal."

After a moment, Yue Ruyan said with a smile on her face.

"Whether I will suffer a loss or not, I have my own measure in my heart. Boss Yue, I will have someone send the finished ointment to Huanxi Building in three days. I hope we can have a pleasant cooperation."

She only provided the whitening and skin-rejuvenating ointment, and Yue Ruyan had to do all the rest. Shen Xiangwan didn't feel that she had suffered any loss. Moreover, if the people who killed her were really Shen Xiangyue's work, she could also uproot them and completely solve the hidden dangers, which would undoubtedly be a huge profit.

“It’s a pleasure to work with you!”

After nodding slightly, Yue Ruyan slowly stood up and pretended to leave. Given her status, it was not suitable for her to have long-term contact with Chen Xiangwan, and she didn't want her to suffer unnecessary rumors because of her.

It's not that she didn't see her concerns, but Shen Xiangwan didn't say anything, just shook her head helplessly and laughed. Since she dared to invite her to cooperate in public, she would not be afraid of those so-called rumors. Some people, even if they make dirty money, may sometimes use inhuman means, but this does not mean that the other party is a bad person.

From the beginning to the end, Shen Xiangwan never looked down on her because of her identity. Instead, she had some admiration for her. In this era where men are respected, she, a woman, can run a brothel and do it successfully, which shows her skills and abilities. If possible, she would like to make friends with her.
