Chapter 523: Nine Countries Wanted List
Southwest of Dai Yue, Wangcheng of Hengzhou.
In the most luxurious restaurant on the street, a group of people in brocade clothes and satin shoes walked out, talking and laughing as they walked.
"Mr. An, I've always felt at ease doing business with your Twelve Wharves. You can rest assured too. Mr. An is willing to give us a discount. On behalf of the Hengzhou Chamber of Commerce, I'll give you a promise: the Chamber of Commerce will definitely negotiate for you to enter the customs route between Hengzhou and the Lingjiang border!"
"Dock Twelve is the royal shipping company personally selected by the Emperor, and Young Master An is one of the Emperor's most valued assistants. President Du, I will bear witness today. You must keep your word, hahahaha."
"Your Excellency, the Prefect, are insulting me with your words! So, tomorrow! Tomorrow, I will personally introduce the officials from the Lingjiang Shipping Office to Master An! I will not shirk my responsibility!"
Su An, dressed in a navy blue robe, stood in front of the prominent nobles of Hengzhou. He had a handsome and gentle temperament, and a perfect smile on his face, neither humble nor arrogant. "Su An is still young, and it is my honor to be favored by you. Mr. Prefect, President Du, uncles, so, Su An will meet again tomorrow, so as not to delay your busy work."
"Oh, that's too formal. Let's meet at the business conference tomorrow!"
"Okay, Su An respectfully sees you all off." Su An made a gesture of invitation, "This is the etiquette that a junior should have. If uncles and aunts continue to be polite to me, it will really be inappropriate."
This made everyone laugh out loud, and they felt relaxed and comfortable.
After seeing everyone off one by one, Su An boarded the carriage parked at the alleyway beside the restaurant. After suppressing his smile, his aura changed, becoming cold and deep. "Let's go back to Yuelai Inn."
The carriage started moving and slowly drove along the wide street.
In the afternoon of mid-September, the autumn sun is warm and the breeze is cool.
The streets are bustling with people and cars.
In the clothing store across from the Yuelai Inn, a woman in a goose-yellow skirt looked at the men's shirts and robes displayed on the wall, muttering to herself, "Brother An will look great in this navy brocade robe! This dark-patterned crane cloak looks great too! And this one, with its round-necked satin pattern... Brother An looks great in anything! No need to choose, I want them all! Shopkeeper, help me get this, this, and this piece of clothing, so I can pick out a few belts and buckles."
"Brother An doesn't know how to take care of himself. I have to help him with these things. What will he do without me?"
"Bing'er is very useful!"
The customers around listened to the woman mumbling to herself, and some were surprised and laughed.
When I saw her again, I felt even more kindness.
The goose yellow dress made her already snow-white skin look even whiter. She had a round face, big eyes, a delicate nose and a diamond-shaped mouth. When she spoke, her eyes were lively, clear and innocent.
You can't tell her age from her appearance. She looks more like a little girl who has been raised in a secluded place and is ignorant of the world. She is so simple and pure that it makes people feel pity for her.
The young man in brocade clothes who had just entered the door was attracted by her. Seeing that there was no one following the woman, he curled his lips and smiled, and walked over. "Whose young lady is this? Why is she out strolling alone without anyone accompanying her? She has to carry the things she bought by herself. How tiring it must be."
Bing'er picked out several waist buckles that would surely look great on Brother An. She was so happy that she paid the bill and brushed away the dark shadow that was blocking her view. "You're blocking my way."
When the flick failed to move her, Bing'er looked over and said, "You want to buy a waist buckle? I've picked out the rest. The rest are all here. You can pick whatever you want. Please help the shopkeeper."
As he said this, he stuffed the tray with the waist buckles next to him into the arms of the young man opposite him and said, "Please move aside, you are really blocking my way."
The young man in brocade clothes stared at her intently. After a moment, he chuckled and moved closer to the woman with a deliberately evil smile. "What should I do? I don't like anything else. I only like what you have in your hand."
After saying that, he suddenly reached out and snatched the waist buckle from Bing'er's hand, "Men's waist buckle, who did you buy it for?"
Looking at her empty hands and then at the man in front of her who she didn't know, Bing'er raised her eyebrows and slapped him, "Robbery? You bad guy! If my sister and Xiao Mai Sui were here, they would beat you to a pulp!"
The slapping sounded crisp and clear.
The shop also became quiet.
The smile on the young man's face froze, and his expression darkened. "You dare to hit me?! The young master thought highly of you and teased you a few times, and you're taking advantage of me?"
He was filled with anger and reached out to grab the woman's wrist.
Bing'er was frightened and subconsciously wanted to step back. But when she saw the person who just walked in, her eyes lit up and she felt relieved.
She blocked the hand of the man in brocade clothes, kicked him away, and ran to the tall man who walked in. "Brother An, he stole my things! I slapped him and kicked him!"
"Well done." Su An raised his lips and rubbed the top of the woman's head. "If someone bullies you outside, feel free to fight back. Don't let yourself suffer. Brother An is here."
Bing'er's eyes sparkled as she nodded again and again, "Bing'er remembers it!"
Around, "..."
Maybe they were thinking wrongly just now.
With a brother like this, even the most innocent child will be raised to be a naughty child.
The young master of President Du’s family deserved to be beaten.
"Are you still in the mood to chat? If you hit me, this will be bad!" Master Du came back to his senses and looked at the people talking about whether they were at a disadvantage or not in front of him as if no one was around, and his nose was crooked with anger.
He was just used to talking nonsense, and when he got slapped or kicked, not only did he say nothing, but people also treated him as air.
Let him be the laughing stock?
Su An looked at him, the smile on his face faded, his eyes turned cold, "Mr. Du, these waist buckles were picked out for me by my sister. They belong to other people, so it's better to return them to their original owners."
As soon as he finished speaking, the waist buckles that Mr. Du was holding fell into his hands.
Master Du, “…”
How did this guy take the thing from his hand?
"President Du and I are acquainted. We just came out of the restaurant together. If you feel angry, you can come to Yuelai Inn to find me at any time. My surname is Su, and my given name is An. I am the young master of the Twelve Wharf." Su An spoke calmly and steadily, without any anger, but the aura around him made people feel oppressive.
He took out some money from his purse to pay the bill, and picked up the other things Bing'er had bought. He then took Bing'er's hand and walked away steadily.
The shop was quiet from the time he came until he left.
Master Du looked at his back and stood there not daring to move. Finally, when the man was out of sight, he coughed lightly, straightened his back, and left as if nothing had happened.
After walking out of the shop, his face fell and he wanted to slap himself.
I was afraid of the pain and couldn't do it.
Damn, if you walk by the river often, you will get your feet wet.
Met Su An.
He had never seen this person before, but his name... was very familiar to him.
His father mentioned this name in his ear no less than fifty times.
Su An's surname is Su, but his status is comparable to that of a royal relative! He can sleep on the emperor's dragon bed!
That's not the scariest thing.
The scariest thing is that that bastard was once a wanted person in nine countries!
Does Mr. Du dare to offend him?
I dare not!
Just go away with your tail between your legs.
