"An'an, let me explain—I didn't say it's all bad, just some of it! Some of it!"

Xuan Ting followed behind in frustration. Several times he wanted to disregard his pride and grab her clothes to please her, but then he thought it was too embarrassing and gave up with a few grumbles.

Nevertheless, he was filled with remorse and tried to make amends several times, but the more he tried to please her, the less Tong Su paid attention to him.

Tong Su entered the room and, hearing the boy's chattering behind her, couldn't help but chuckle. After laughing, she immediately suppressed the smile and kept a straight face.

This guy—

She was just teasing him on purpose.

Who could blame him for looking so arrogant and fierce when we first met?

Now that he's shed that domineering prince persona, he's just a carefree young man. It's really interesting to see him get so angry that he jumps up and down.

This man is incredibly cunning when he criticizes others, but unfortunately, he's too arrogant. He dug his own pit and ended up burying himself in it too.

Tong Su returned to her room and took out the card that Steward Li Wen had used to transfer money; it contained 800,000 coins.

It's not a huge amount, but it's not a small amount either. If it were a dagger, it would naturally fetch more than this price, but for a mere ring, it's a bit high.

But 800,000 seems like a lot, but if you think about it carefully, it's not even enough for a ship ticket from the transit station to the Imperial Star System! So how can it be considered a lot?

She accepted the money, took stock of her assets, and not long after, people from the Chamber of Commerce came over and politely invited them to move into the luxury room.

The price of a deluxe room is five times that of a standard room. Tong Su and Xuan Ting didn't have much money on planet E976-INE86, so they only booked a standard room initially. Now that they know that Steward Li Wen is deliberately trying to curry favor with them, Tong Su readily agrees.

After all, the deluxe room offers much better treatment than the regular room.

She told Yang's mother that she had found a method for forging weapons in the White Cave, which the Chamber of Commerce really wanted. They hit it off and finalized the deal.

Yang's mother was somewhat apprehensive, but Tong Su was clever and sweet-talking, and she finally managed to persuade her to relax. The two packed their things and moved into the luxury room.

The treatment in the deluxe room was naturally excellent. As soon as they checked in, Steward Liwen had a large amount of gourmet food, wine, snacks and desserts delivered, and it was agreed that they would be updated at the interval of three meals a day.

It's a luxurious suite with a balcony, living room, study, gym, two bedrooms... and even a convenient workshop for smelting metal has been specially set up.

Tong Su glanced at the door, gave the merchant ship waiter a half-smile, then closed the door and never opened it again.

They simply sent over a lot of books, covering everything from history and geography to national conditions and even general knowledge about literature.

He turned on the TV to watch the news while simultaneously picking up a book and studying diligently.

Reading is the quickest way to understand the customs and culture of an era;

The television was for Xuan Ting to watch, so he could quickly grasp the political changes that had occurred after he fell into a coma.

The waiter respectfully prepared Tongsu's room, then left and headed straight for Steward Liwen's office.

"President, my subordinates reported that she didn't even enter the work area. Did she discover our tampering?"

As soon as the waiter finished his report and left, Steward Liwen immediately asked the chairman in a low voice.

The president said in a deep voice, "She may not have discovered the surveillance inside, but it's only right that she's vigilant. Are you sure her physical and mental strength levels are only E and F?"

Steward Leven nodded: "That's what the people on planet E976-INE86 say, but we haven't had a chance to test it yet. Just looking at her skills against Geraldine, she's probably already at D or C level."

"Then she must have gotten lucky in the white hole and advanced..." The guild leader snorted softly, his tone slightly sour, "She's certainly lucky."
