"Your Highness Prince Yi, it's really not easy to find you." Nan Wusi smiled and strode into the private room.
"Not at all, Miss Nan, you may come to Prince Yi's residence to see me at any time if you need anything." Xiao Yi shook the folding fan in his hand. "May I ask what brings Miss Nan to see me in such a hurry?"
"Didn't His Highness Prince Yi send someone to say that there were too few lingerie design patterns? This time, I've brought a large number of patterns. Would you be interested in hearing about them?" Nan Wusi took out the patterns first.
“Of course. Please go on, Miss Nan.” Xiao Yi nodded.
Nan Wusi laid out the designs she had carefully selected the night before on the table. A closer look revealed that all the lingerie was animal-themed. Some even had tails. There were bunny girl outfits, cat ears, foxes, and even snake tails.
Nan Wusi rambled on about the design concepts and ideas behind these sets, making the others blush with embarrassment. Only Yi Wang and she seriously discussed the appeal and sales highlights of the lingerie.
After talking at length, Nan Wusi felt his throat was almost dry, so he picked up a cup from the table and drank some water. Just then, he heard Prince Yi ask a question.
"Miss Nan, I have a question that I do not understand. Could you please enlighten me?"
"Please speak, Your Highness." Nan Wusi put down his cup after finishing his drink.
"Miss Nan is a young lady from a respectable family, so why does she have so many wonderful ideas?"
Although Prince Yi asked the question tactfully, it still made Nan Wusi blush deeply, and he couldn't respond for a while.
Perhaps because the silence had lasted too long, Prince Yi said, "I misspoke, please forgive me, Miss Nan."
"Ahem." Nan Wusi coughed lightly to brush the matter aside and then reached for the cup.
However, perhaps Prince Yi also felt a little embarrassed. At that moment, he reached out to take the cup, and their hands touched. Xiao Yi felt as if he had touched a soft, boneless little hand.
The two parted ways immediately after touching, and Nan Wusi then realized that she had just drunk from Prince Yi's water cup, so she blushed again, still criticizing Xiao Yi for his poor hospitality, for not even preparing a water cup for her.
Xiao Yi was still savoring the delicate touch, but at the same time, he was puzzled that someone who had practiced martial arts for a long time should have such smooth hands.
As the two were both lost in thought, the room fell silent for a moment, and an awkward atmosphere quickly spread.
“Your Highness Prince Yi, my sister’s design is excellent. I guarantee it will be a huge success once it’s produced,” Nan Wushi said, unable to bear the awkward atmosphere any longer.
"Yes, it's really good." Xiao Yi agreed after regaining his senses. "I will start giving birth tomorrow."
With that, the matter was settled. But Nan Wusi hadn't come to see him today for this matter at all.
“Your Highness Prince Yi, I have actually come today to discuss another collaboration with you.”
"Oh? What kind of cooperation does Miss Nan want to discuss?" Xiao Yi became interested when he heard that there were other cooperation opportunities to be discussed.
“I want to open a clothing store for ordinary people on a street near a slum.”
Xiao Yi hadn't expected Nan Wusi to make such a decision after only two visits to the slums, but he still said sternly, "Miss Nan, what purchasing power do commoners have? You're offering a losing deal to me? Do you think I'm a fool?"
Nan Wusi never expected Prince Yi to have such an attitude. She was indeed too naive. What noble would really care about the lives of ordinary people?
"Your Highness, this is a great thing that benefits the country and the people. If you can open such a shop, the people will praise you. Don't you want such a good reputation?" Nan Wusi felt that these nobles seemed to care about their reputation, so he persuaded them in this way.
"What use are these empty titles to me? Isn't it Miss Nan who needs this good reputation more?" Xiao Yi retorted.
Dude, those words really hit home. Although Nan Wusi knew that Xiao Yi had a point, it sounded as if she was doing this for her reputation, which made her very unhappy, so she also put on a long face.
"Since Your Highness is unwilling, let's pretend I didn't mention it. Wu Shi, let's go." Nan Wusi didn't want to stay any longer and got up to leave.
"Wait a minute." Xiao Yi didn't expect Nan Wusi to leave so suddenly.
"Is there anything else Your Highness Prince Yi to instruct me to do?" Nan Wusi's tone turned cold.
"Miss Nan, don't get so angry. I didn't say it was definitely not allowed." Prince Yi shook his head helplessly.
Upon hearing that there was hope, Nan Wusi's mood brightened, and he sat back down.
"Miss Nan, I can lend you my weaving workshop to produce ready-made clothes, or I can help you find a store, as long as you promise me one thing in the future, how about it?" Xiao Yi's proposal was extremely tempting.
But Nan Wusi dared not accept it. She looked on with suspicion and uncertainty, fearing that some conspiracy might be waiting for her.
"Miss Nan, rest assured, I will not ask you to do anything such as murder, arson, rebellion, or treason, nor will I ask you to do anything that would put you in a particularly difficult position," Xiao Yi assured her.
"Deal." Nan Wusi thought it over and decided that she didn't have anything worth taking advantage of, so she made the decision directly. Anyway, if Prince Yi made any demands that she didn't want to fulfill, she could just renege on the deal; there was no contract or anything like that.
Upon hearing Nan Wusi's agreement, Xiao Yi's face broke into a wide smile, seemingly overjoyed, leaving Nan Wusi speechless once again. Meanwhile, Nan Wushi, seeing his older sister's infatuated expression, sighed and rubbed his forehead, "So pathetic."
"It's almost noon, Miss Nan, why don't you stay for lunch before you leave?" Xiao Yi's pleasant voice made Nan Wusi nod repeatedly.
"Great! It would be so pleasing to the eye to watch handsome men eat."
"Cough, cough, cough." Nan Wushi coughed loudly to ease his inner embarrassment.
Oh no, I accidentally let it slip. Nan Wusi was extremely embarrassed.
