"Master, Lady Luo has gone to seek help again. She secretly went out and, this time, I don't know what method she used, but she managed to persuade Lord Li to agree to help her!"

Bai Lu reported to Su Nanxi, who was checking the accounts at the time. Upon hearing this, Su Nanxi didn't look up but asked, "How many people did she meet?"

"According to her plan, she was supposed to meet three people, but some didn't come, so she only met two. One refused, and the other agreed! I didn't hear the specific conditions she discussed, and I didn't dare get too close. They deliberately lowered their voices, and it seemed like they used special code words!"

Su Nanxi didn't stop checking the ledger in her hand, and turned another page. Bai Lu looked on with great envy, as she couldn't do such delicate work!

This is so brain-teasing!

Just looking at it gives me a headache, let alone reading it page by page!

The master is truly amazing; he can tell if there's a problem just by glancing at the subject!

It seems she's not cut out for using her brain; she can only survive with her fists!

Fortunately, she had strong fists and could easily knock down several people!

Let's leave these dazzling things to the capable people to handle!

Fortunately, her master didn't require her to know these things, otherwise she would have had a very difficult time!

She was so envious of her master, who seemed to be enjoying himself so much. Her master was indeed very clever!

"Is that Lord Li from before? He seems to be too idle lately. That won't do. An official should work hard for the people, not be arrogant and indulgent, only caring about his own enjoyment! Being too indulgent in sensual pleasures is not good! It's a big problem that needs to be corrected! But I think that Lord Li won't realize it. We should do more good deeds to remind him! If he doesn't discover the problem, he'll always think everything is peaceful!"

Bai Lu nodded, understanding what Su Nanxi meant.

The mistress doesn't really want to be a great philanthropist; she just wants to stir up trouble!

There's nothing we can do. That Lord Li seems to be living too leisurely and comfortably, unaware of the hardships of life. It's time to remind him!

"Okay! I know what to do! What about those who didn't agree? Should we extend a helping hand to them too?"

Su Nanxi shook her head, "Let's ignore it for now. With precedents as examples, they'll understand on their own! They're very smart, their minds work very well!"

Bailu understands, and will set an example!

As the two were walking down the street, they suddenly heard a familiar voice, and Su Nanxi stopped in her tracks.

"Please, tell me quickly, where did you buy those pills? I really need them!"

"I already told you, I really don't have any pills! I was just trying to save face before, so I bragged that I had a really powerful pill, even more effective than the finest nectar! That's fake! Fake! I really don't have any. If I did, I would have told you already. You've been chasing me for two blocks! Even if you chased me, you still wouldn't have found it! You might as well go ask the pharmacy; maybe they have some!"

"You liar! I'll beat you to death! Why didn't you say so sooner! You're only admitting it's fake now, what a waste of my time!"

"Ouch! Don't hit my face! I still need my looks to make a living! If I go back home, my parents won't recognize me and won't let me in the door! Be gentle! We're on the street, a couple of punches are fine, but with so many people watching, it's not good! I've been telling you this, but you just wouldn't believe me! And you're blaming me, ouch!"

"Hmph! This is the price you pay for bragging! I'll settle the score with you later when I have time!"

"We've already fought, why are you still settling scores? You're being completely unreasonable!"

"You've known me for a long time, don't you know whether I'm reasonable or not?"

"You win! A real man doesn't argue with a woman. And stop nagging me, or I'll never see you again!"

"I don't want to see you right now, so just disappear!"

"You woman are too..."

"Susu! You're here! Where are you going?"

Su Nanxi saw Yao Xinyue on the street. Yao Xinyue was arguing with someone, and then they started fighting. She was having a tiff with someone and accidentally saw Su Nanxi when she turned her face away.

So, Yao Xinyue instantly abandoned her arguing partner and happily ran towards Su Nanxi. Anyone who didn't know better would think she had fallen for someone new.

Luckily, Su Nanxi is a woman and not good-looking, otherwise, Yao Xinyue's arguing partner would really be questionable!

I forgot about him in an instant!

He's not even as attractive as an ugly woman!

That's infuriating!

Despite his anger, he couldn't really do anything to Yao Xinyue, but he didn't want her to get her way.

Yao Xinyue wants him to disappear, so what's wrong with him just getting out?

He just wouldn't leave!

And they even swagger over there!

He wanted to expose Yao Xinyue's hypocrisy!

snort!

Seeing someone approaching, Su Nanxi asked Yao Xinyue, "Your friend?"

After saying that, he glanced to the side.

The boy blurted out, "Yes! I'm her friend! She's heartless; she tried to abandon me halfway through the journey!"

It sounded a bit like tattling, and Su Nanxi's eyes lit up with amusement. Could this be Yao Xinyue's childhood friend?

They seem to have a really good relationship!

However, he's a bit arrogant. Judging from his clothes and appearance, he comes from a good family and is also handsome!

Yao Xinyue tried to shoo the young man away, saying, "You should go back! If your father finds out you're missing again, you'll definitely get a beating when you get back! I'm just going to say a few words, and then I have to go home too!"

As he spoke, he shoved the person, trying to push them away.

The young man dodged, and Yao Xinyue failed to push him. He was delighted, "I have a protective shield, I'm not afraid! Besides, you met a friend, but you didn't even introduce him to me. How could you be so considerate? You even tried to kick me out, it's obvious you're excluding me!"

"Fine! You don't have to leave then!"

Yao Xinyue probably knew she couldn't get rid of him, so she simply ignored him, but the young man insisted that she introduce him.

On the street, with so many people around, it's not convenient to say much; making a scene would only make us a laughingstock.

So Su Nanxi suggested that they all go to the teahouse in front of the building to sit down.

The two had no objections, so they went together.

As soon as she sat down, Yao Xinyue introduced her to the young man, "This is my friend, her name is Su Su! But you can't call her that, you have to call her Miss Su! You can't call her Su Su!"

The young man nodded. "Aren't you going to introduce me?"

Yao Xinyue looked disgusted. "What's there to introduce! It's enough that I know you. Are you going to bother Su Su in the future? If you dare, I'll beat you up every time I see you!"

As he spoke, he raised his clenched fist and waved it, a clear warning!

The young man smiled, ignoring Yao Xinyue, and turned to Su Nanxi to introduce himself, "Hello, Miss Su! My name is He Jiayi! Our two families are on good terms, and we've been childhood sweethearts! She has a bit of a temper, so you might have to be patient with her. If you can't stand it, you can just beat her up! Ouch! Why did you hit my head again?"

Su Nanxi smiled faintly and did not answer.

What's wrong with my temper?
