“It’s like this, Miss Nan. Princess Helan previously asked me if it was possible to open the Beautiful Life franchise in Beihuan, so I’ve come today specifically to discuss this matter with you,” Kerehu Sangye explained.
"She actually wants to open a shop in Beihuan." Nan Wusi had heard Helan Wenyue mention it before, but she hadn't taken it seriously.
“Yes, Princess Helan hopes that the people of Beihuan can also enjoy this kind of service.” Kerehu Sangjie nodded, then cautiously inquired, “What does Miss Nan think?”
Nan Wusi pondered for a while. She naturally thought the idea was good, but it required many details to be discussed, and the way to open the store also needed to be determined.
"Are you planning to open this shop with your own people, or should I send someone over?" Nan Wusi asked.
“We naturally wanted our own people to run the shop, but we would source our goods from Miss Nan,” Krekhu Sangye replied.
"Xiao Ba, will the system recognize this way of opening a store?" Nan Wusi asked.
“It would be acceptable if the shop name and the goods sold were the same as those in the capital,” Xiao Ba replied.
So Namosi told Kreshman that she would be willing to accept if their shop were also named Beautiful Life and only sold her cosmetics.
Although Kreehu Sangye found Namosi's request somewhat strange, the name of the shop was not important to him; as a businessman, he only cared about making money.
So Kreece Sangye agreed with a big smile.
Then Namosi discussed many details with Kelehu Sangye, while Xia Ziqian listened quietly the whole time, and even poured tea for the two of them.
"Thank you, Young Master Xia, you're too kind." Nan Wusi thanked Xia Ziqian while holding the teacup.
“Miss Nan, it’s getting late today. Why don’t we finish this cup of tea and continue our discussion tomorrow? There are many details about opening a shop, which I’m sure can’t be explained in one day.” Xia Ziqian spoke with a very gentle and refined manner.
"Very well, there are indeed many details I still need to think about today." Nan Wusi took a sip of tea, then got up to take his leave.
"Let's meet here again at the same time tomorrow," Xia Ziqian said to Nan Wusi with a smile.
"Okay, see you tomorrow." Nan Wusi nodded and left with Zhizhi.
However, on her way back, she felt a little dizzy. What could be the reason?
"Thump." Nan Wusi fell to the ground not far away, which startled Zhizhi, who rushed over to check on him.
"Miss? Miss, what's wrong?" Zhizhi shook Nan Wusi but couldn't wake her up. Then she shouted for help: "Help! Someone, please save our young lady!"
Before she could even shout a few more times, a group of people rushed out, knocked her unconscious, and then kidnapped Nan Wusi.
Zhizhi was also taken to a place and locked up.
At the city gate, the Third Prince and Minister Liu were seeing off the envoy from the Northern Huan.
"Prince Helan, Princess Helan, I wish you a safe journey back to Beihuan," the Third Prince said, bowing.
"Thank you, Third Prince. We'll take our leave now." Helan Wenjin also cupped his hands in thanks to the Third Prince.
Immediately afterwards, the Northern Huan's entourage set off, dragging cartloads of rewards.
"Wen Yue, what if we get found out?" He Lan Wen Jin asked anxiously in a low voice.
"What's there to be afraid of? They wouldn't dare do anything to us," Helan Wenyue glanced at Helan Wenjin and answered casually.
“That’s Nan Tianba’s daughter!” Helan Wenjin said.
"Wouldn't it be perfect to lure her to our Northern Huan?" Helan Wenyue sneered.
"Can you call that kidnapping? That's abduction!" He Lanwenjin was furious.
"I'm saving her," Helan Wenyue said earnestly.
"Wen Yue, you haven't fallen for this Nan Wusi, have you?" He Lan Wen Jin suddenly realized something and her eyes widened.
"What, you want to take it from me?" Helan Wenyue glared at Helan Wenjin.
"Pah, pah, pah, this girl is so ugly. Although her martial arts are passable, I have no interest in her." Helan Wenjin shook his head vigorously. What a joke! With Nan Wusi's skinny arms and legs, he had absolutely no interest in her.
"Tch, no taste," Helan Wenyue laughed and scolded.
"Wen Yue, what should we do next?" He Lan Wen Jin asked.
"Let's hurry to the next town before they find us, then change horses, buy a carriage, and take a different route to travel at full speed," Helan Wenyue replied.
"Alright." After receiving a clear answer, Helan Wenjin stopped wasting time and began to travel at full speed, telling his subordinates to speed up as well.
The people of Beihuan grew up on horseback, so this distance was nothing to them. Even if they wanted to hurry, speeding up would be a piece of cake.
After they arrived at the next town, the people from Beihuan hurriedly went to buy horses, while Helan Wenyue and Helan Wenjin had several large boxes carried into the room.
Upon entering the room, Helan Wenyue quickly opened the box, removed all the items on top, and then took down the divider, revealing Nan Wusi, who was curled up inside the box.
"Wen Yue, will Miss Nan fight you to the death when she wakes up?" He Lan Wen Jin looked at Nan Wu Si, then turned to He Lan Wen Yue and said.
“No, besides the sleeping potion, that cup of tea also contained a drug that rendered her unable to use force,” Helan Wenyue replied.
"You've thought of everything very thoroughly," Helan Wenjin chuckled twice.
Helan Wenyue ignored him and carried Nan Wusi to the bed, telling her to lie down properly, as she must have been feeling suffocated from being in the box for so long.
Although Namo Sisi was still unconscious, his brows had been furrowed, but they had relaxed slightly at this moment.
"You should go and rest first," Helan Wenyue said to Helan Wenjin.
"Alright, you should get some rest too." Helan Wenjin glanced at Helan Wenyue but didn't say anything more. His younger brother was much more decisive than him.
After Helan Wenjin left, Helan Wenyue sat down next to Nan Wusi. He leaned down to look at Nan Wusi carefully, tracing her eyebrows and eyes.
If Nan Wusi were to wake up now, he would definitely curse Helan Wenyue as a pervert, as her behavior was truly terrifying.
Unfortunately, this sleeping potion is unique to the Northern Huan people and is very potent. Once affected, one will generally fall into a deep sleep for three days and three nights, so Nan Wusi will not wake up now.
Nan Wuyu only learned of Nan Wusi's disappearance the next day. He originally thought that Nan Wusi had gone to find Xiao Yi, which was why he hadn't returned home all night. When he still hadn't seen him by the next day, Nan Wuyu went to Prince Yi's mansion to look for Xiao Yi.
However, upon seeing Xiao Yi, Nan Wuyu learned that they hadn't seen each other since the hunt. Nan Wuyu then became anxious.
Xiao Yi tried calling out to Nan Wusi in his mind, but there was no response.
The two men were now really worried. How could this person have suddenly disappeared?
