Chapter 496



After Liu Tingxue left with Shi Jie, An Ge looked at the lifeless Shi Xinyi and sighed, "It's okay to be scheming in your next life, just don't have any malicious intentions. I hope you won't be so stubborn in your next life, and be a good person. Little fire, don't burn her soul."

Little Fire happily leaped out, and in the blink of an eye, Shi Xinyi disappeared.

After dealing with the two, An Ge did not visit Sword God Valley, but went directly to Feng Jinghan and told him that the crisis had been resolved.

Feng Jinghan breathed a sigh of relief. "That's good." As the person in power, he did not want any uncontrollable factors to exist under his rule.

Now an emperor, Feng Jinghan's aura grew even stronger. Even when he tried to lower his posture in front of An Ge, the youthful imperial spirit still inadvertently leaked out. "Qinghe will be very happy to know you're here. Do you want to go see her?"

An Ge shook her head. "No need. She must be very busy right now, so I won't bother her. Let me make this clear: Qinghe is my sister, so you're not allowed to bully her."

"How could I dare? She wants to start a women's academy, and there's a lot of opposition from the court. I've been holding off the pressure for her."

"That's what you should do."

Feng Jinghan chuckled. Sure enough, compared to the Empress, her status in the shop manager's heart would always be one place lower.

She missed Bai Yurou's wedding, so she was determined to attend this time. After saying goodbye to Feng Jinghan, An Ge went straight to the Shen residence.

Now that Bai Yurou is Shen's daughter-in-law, everyone in the Shen family is doing well. Given Bai Yurou's personality, An Ge isn't worried at all that she'll be bullied. And indeed, when An Ge saw Bai Yurou, she was "acting arrogantly" in front of Shen Qingshuang.

"No, no, I want the roast chicken from Deshun Street. It's not for me, it's for your daughter." Bai Yurou touched her bulging belly and spoke firmly, but her eyes were full of smiles.

Shen Qingshuang said helplessly, "Yes, my lady, I will buy it myself right away."

Bai Yurou was amused by the words, and she stood on tiptoe and gave her a big kiss. "Get out of here."

An Ge saw the young couple's affection as soon as she appeared, silently witnessing their sweet moments, and felt that An Ge shouldn't have been afraid of disturbing the Shen family by secretly becoming a thief.

After Shen Qingshuang left, An Ge appeared in front of Bai Yurou.

"Manager!" Bai Yurou saw An Ge and her eyes lit up with surprise. She threw herself at An Ge.

"Hey, slow down. Your belly is so big already, don't be so clumsy." An Ge was a little speechless. Compared to Shen Qinghe's liveliness, Bai Yurou was a tomboy.

"Manager, you heartless woman, you've finally remembered me."

"You and your husband are so sweet together, what does it matter to me whether I want to or not?" The reason she didn't appear at Bai Yurou's wedding was also because she knew Bai Yurou had a high status, and if she had appeared, the Shen family would have felt uncomfortable.

"Ahem!" Even Bai Yurou, who had a thick skin, felt a little embarrassed.

An Ge presented Bai Yurou with a wedding gift, which was still the most effective elixir for mortals. Bai Yurou was moved to tears. "How long will the shopkeeper stay in the capital?"

"I'm leaving soon."

Thinking of the rumor, Bai Yurou opened her mouth, but swallowed her words. She knew herself well and wouldn't embarrass the store manager because of her reluctance.

After chatting with Bai Yurou for a while and confirming that she was doing well, An Ge left.

Before leaving the Shen residence, she looked back at the not-so-luxurious mansion and smiled. It was good that her friend was living a happy life.

After visiting Bai Yurou, An Ge went to see Yun Mo. Yun Mo was now the head of the Yun family and the de facto president of the Jingshi Chamber of Commerce. This young president was ruthless and, having played a crucial role in the rise of the family, was invincible in the business world.

When news spread that the Immortal Inn was leaving, many merchants panicked, especially those who had set up shop in the mall. Yunmo was the quickest to calm down and devised a plan for the merchants' escape route.

The Xianyuan Street in Huaixi City is currently under construction, and even if the Xianyuan Shopping Mall is not built in the future, these businesses will not be greatly affected.

Having become the head of the family, Yunmo has become more composed and less impetuous. When he saw An Ge suddenly appear, he smiled brightly. Only at this moment did he show some of his former self.

"The store manager, who's always so busy, finally remembered me."

An Ge rolled her eyes. "Why are you asking that too?"

"Who else?"

An Ge was suddenly stunned. What was she supposed to say?

Yunmo guessed what was going on from An Ge's expression. A hint of pain flashed in his eyes, but he forced a smile and said, "It must be that girl Bai Yurou. She's already married, but she's still the same as before."

He had a smile on his face, but anyone could tell that it was forced.

An Ge rarely drinks, but this time she wanted to have a drink with Yun Mo. She took out a bunch of fine wines, "This is the latest blend, it hasn't been sold yet, you're in luck."

Yunmo's eyes lit up. "The wine at the inn is so hard to buy. If it weren't for my relationship with the manager, I probably wouldn't have been able to get any. And it's a new product, so I'm even more excited."

The two drank and chatted, discussing business and their experiences, until they were both slightly drunk.

An Ge used her spiritual power to dispel the effects of her drunkenness, and sighed as she looked at Yun Mo, whose face was flushed. "You've heard, haven't you? I might not be appearing at the inn as often as I used to."

Yunmo smiled, his eyes filled with reluctance, "The innkeeper is a man destined for great things; he can't stay at the inn forever. I just hope that when the innkeeper thinks of this old friend in the future, he can come back and visit."

"I haven't even thanked you yet. If it weren't for you building the commercial street, I wouldn't know where to put those businesses." Shop assistants might be robbed, but if businesses don't find suitable locations, it will also affect their business.

"This is nothing. Building a commercial street is a good thing for me too. It will definitely be a goldmine in the future. As you know, I never do business at a loss."

“That’s definitely your style.” After saying that, they both laughed.

"It's getting late, I have to go."

"good."

"Manager."

"Um?"

"I regret it!"

"I know."

"Have a safe trip, store manager."

"Okay, and I wish you all the best in your future endeavors."

After leaving the Yun family home, An Ge felt somewhat down. She used to be disappointed in Yun Mo, but seeing him like this now, she felt a pang of heartache.

Fate can be quite mysterious. Two people who thought they would never cross paths end up together, while those who were once close friends and lovers drift further and further apart.

Bai Yurou tried, experienced disappointment, and was the first to move on. Unexpectedly, Yun Mo, who had always run away, is still stuck in the mire, and it's unclear when he'll be able to escape.

Their shared fate made An Ge realize more clearly that you have to give it your all in everything, so that even if you don't succeed, you won't have any regrets. Being arrogant will only lead to regret in the end.
