Bai Jinjin was furious, looking at him with unconvinced eyes, "Mo Yunqiu, how dare you look down on me? What will you do if I really succeed?"
Hearing this, Mo Yunqiu raised his chin and looked at Bai Jinjin confidently, saying in a leisurely tone, "If you do it, I will satisfy your wish, how about that?"
"Deal! What if you regret it?"
"A gentleman's word is as good as gold!" Mo Yunqiu certainly wouldn't break his promise. He didn't trust Bai Jinjin at all. "If Your Highness loses, please don't interfere in government affairs anymore."
Bai Jinjin looked at him with feigned sadness, "Ah, good intentions are truly unrewarded. If I hadn't interfered with state affairs, you would have been exiled, right?"
Mo Yunqiu was speechless for a moment. Bai Jinjin was right. He had no way to refute her, so he just snorted coldly and turned away.
Bai Jinjin silently made a "yeah" gesture in her heart, with a teasing look in her eyes that she couldn't hide. Ye Jiuge flicked her forehead and said, "You're naughty."
"Who made him laugh at me? If that's the case, then let him see my strength."
These should have been very domineering words, but coming out of Bai Jinjin's mouth, it can only be described as that of a milk beast, with every word and action revealing cuteness.
"In that case, let's quickly find the place you want." Ye Jiuge pulled her hand and walked out of the alley. "If the place you like is bought by another buyer, you won't be able to find a place to cry, right?"
"You're right, let's go, we can't stay here forever." He immediately took the initiative and ran forward with Ye Jiuge, crossing the busy roads, and finally saw a huge empty restaurant.
Bai Jinjin was stunned for a moment. "This restaurant? Why is it so big?"
"Is this the former Imperial Food Hall?" Ye Jiuge took a look at the surroundings before confirming, "It's definitely the Imperial Food Hall."
"What? There's no one at the Imperial Food House? They're obviously doing such a good job." Bai Jinjin felt a little disappointed. She still loved the food at the Imperial Food House. It was delicious. "Well, if that's the case, let's just take over this place."
The surrounding shops also looked empty, as if something had happened. There were almost no people trying to attract customers in the shops.
"Okay, Brother Ye, now that the store business has been settled, let's go back!" Bai Jinjin was satisfied and was walking back with Ye Jiuge. Suddenly, Ye Jiuge stopped and said, "Jinjin, you go back first. I have something I want to take care of. I'll bring you some sugar-roasted chestnuts when we get back."
Although she was puzzled as to why Ye Jiuge wanted to stay, Bai Jinjin nodded for the sake of Tangchaolizi, and looked at him with a sweet smile, "Then Brother Ye, remember to hurry up. I'll go back and wait for you."
Ye Jiuge nodded and smiled softly, "Go back and be careful. I believe Mo Yunqiu will protect you."
Not far away, Mo Yunqiu said thank you for listening to me, rolled his eyes and followed Bai Jinjin quietly.
Although he dislikes him, it is his duty to protect Bai Jinjin and he cannot ignore it.
Until the girl left his sight, Ye Jiuge's eyes darkened and he walked into the Imperial Food House and said in a sharp tone, "Come out!"
"Why are you still so irritable towards me after not seeing me for so long?" A clear young voice sounded from the second floor, looking at him teasingly, "Prince Ye, you wouldn't act like this in front of the Ninth Princess. Aren't you afraid of hurting a friend like me?"
"Why are you still in Qin?" Ye Jiuge didn't have time to waste time talking to him and flew up to the second floor. "Shouldn't you be leaving?"
The man leaned against the wall as if he had no bones. His face was very charming, which was inconsistent with his voice. "The old man manages it very well. This Qin State is so interesting. Of course I have to have a good time."
"Qiu Le!"
"Wait a minute, I'm telling the truth." Seeing the man calling him by his real name, Qiu Le waved his hands hurriedly, "Why are you so irritable? I'm sorry I'm still friends with you."
His tone was full of dissatisfaction as he muttered about Ye Jiuge's crimes, "Last time you made me play the role of passerby, and now I can't even stay here. You're so cold-blooded."
Ye Jiuge's face was as cold as ice, and he looked at Qiu Le with a bad look in his eyes, "Go back to your East Country."
"Hey! Ye Jiuge, I didn't even tell you that you're using your status as a hostage from a neighboring country to play around. You still want to control me?" Qiu Le was also a little angry. He hadn't done anything against the law. "The customs and people of Qin are quite nice. I don't want to go back yet."
As if she was afraid that he would be worried, she added, "Don't worry, I won't stop you from doing anything. I just want to open a small shop here."
Ye Jiuge finally gave up and looked at him with narrowed eyes, "It's better this way."
He turned and left without even glancing at Qiu Le behind him. "Ah, this awful man is really inhumane."
Seeing the man leave, Qiu Le couldn't hold back his complaints and finally burst out, "I really don't know how the Ninth Princess can tolerate his bad temper."
As he spoke, he walked downstairs, closed the door of the Imperial Food Hall, and posted the notice that the Ninth Princess had already put down. "Ye Jiuge, don't say that I didn't help you. I'll give you the floor."
He stared at the door, muttered to himself, chuckled softly, and turned to leave.
On the other side, Bai Jinjin had just stepped onto the carriage when Ye Jiuge followed behind her, carrying a bag of sugar-roasted chestnuts. Bai Jinjin blinked, "Don't you have something to do?"
How did he come back so quickly? Did he go to the bathroom?
"Put aside your weird thoughts. I flew back using Qinggong." Ye Jiuge took one look at her and knew what was going on in her little head.
Hearing this, Bai Jinjin looked at him in shock. How could he know what she was thinking? Was he a worm in her stomach?
Ye Jiuge sighed deeply, "I'm not the worm in your stomach."
"Whatever you think is shown on your face."
The girl finally breathed a sigh of relief, "I was so scared! I thought Brother Ye, you could read minds."
Ye Jiuge's mouth twitched. If he could read minds, would he have to see the strange thoughts in her mind?
"Coachman, let's go and report to father." Bai Jinjin gained a lot today. The location was finally determined and it could be implemented soon.
After running all the way to the palace, Bai Jinjin stumbled out of the car and was supported by Ye Jiuge's shoulders. Her face was a little pale. "Brother Ye, thank you."
"Why are you so pale?" Ye Jiuge placed his bony hand gently on Bai Jinjin's forehead, his tone worried, "Let's ask the imperial physician to take a look."
Bai Jinjin waved her hands weakly, "No need to call the doctor, the carriage is going too fast and I'm carsick!"
The atmosphere suddenly became awkward. Ye Jiuge patted her back helplessly and said, "Slow down."
