Ji Fengyao also gave an ambiguous smile and chuckled lightly: "We'll talk about it later. We bandits have always only cared about money."

The meaning is:

Don't bother writing empty checks, save your breath. Money talks.

Dong Dan Shuiyue felt extremely uncomfortable after being shut down by her casual remark.

If it were up to her usual temper, she would have torn the life that was making her miserable to shreds.

But now her life, fortune, and future are still in their hands, so she can only endure it and harbor resentment in her heart.

Those ungrateful bastards!

I haven't forgotten how this injury started. I've said it before, one day I'll kill you with my own hands!

Ji Fengyao pretended not to see the not-so-clever hatred and killing intent hidden in Dongdan Shuiyue's eyes, turned around and left the room, and instructed Zhuang Shaoze, "She needs to rest and recuperate. If you want to do anything, stay away from her room and don't disturb her."

After saying that, he winked his right eye at Zhuang Shaoze.

Zhuang Shaoze immediately understood and loudly agreed: "Yes, boss, don't worry, we guarantee that not even a fly will get into this courtyard, and we guarantee that Miss Shuiyue will have an absolutely quiet environment. Even if she calls us, we promise not to come out!"

Dongdan Shuiyue inside the room: "..."

If I call you, none of you can guarantee you won't come out?

That means nobody listens to her orders!

Fine, you bunch of ignorant bandits, once I return to the Dongdan family and take my place, you'll all die!

“I saw that she had a storage ring on her. She was the most favored young lady of the Dongdan family before, so she must have a lot of good things.” As Ji Fengyao winked at Zhuang Shaoze, she secretly transmitted her thoughts to him: “If you have the ability to win her over, they will all be yours. Don’t say that I, Sister Shuishang, didn’t give you a hint and a chance to make a fortune.”

"Understood, thank you for your consideration, Miss," Zhuang Shaoze replied telepathically after finishing his standard greeting.

Just then, Ji Fengyao's footsteps left the courtyard.

Zhuang Shaoze pushed open Dong Dan Shuiyue's door, placed his hands politely on his lower abdomen, and gave her a standard service smile: "Miss Dong Dan, do you need any help?"

Dongdan Shuiyue: "..."

She promised to call them, but they didn't come out.

It seems this person is two-faced!

However, she likes two-faced people, especially those in other people's teams, because it makes things easier for her.

"You're quite perceptive, not bad, you have potential. Since you've pledged your allegiance to me, I won't treat you unfairly." Dongdan Shuiyue took out ten low-grade spirit stones of extremely poor quality and began to order with an air of superiority: "The array setup in this room is too rudimentary. The tea set needs to be replaced with a better one, and the bedding is too poor; it needs to be replaced with the finest brocade fabric. These things I've mentioned shouldn't cost more than ten spirit stones. Consider the rest a reward for you; you don't need to return them to me."

However, Zhuang Shaoze did not accept the spirit stones. He maintained his polite smile and just looked at Dongdan Shuiyue.

Dongdan Shuiyue handed over spirit stones for a long time, but found that no one was taking them. Her expression immediately turned ugly: "What, do you think I'm not giving you enough spirit stones? Do you know that the miners hired by the He family only get a few spirit stones a month?"

“Of course I know, but the reason they are only worth that price is because they are miners. But, Miss Shuiyue, have you forgotten that I am not a miner, I am a bandit?” Zhuang Shaoze looked at Dongdan Shuiyue with a smile and reminded her very politely.
