Chapter 458 The Substitute Bride 13.42



Lu Qingyan sensed malice from this world: Now she can't even flirt with her own man?

"Brave warrior, let's talk this out. Pick up your knife first." Lu Qingyan moved closer to the magpie.

Magpie: Master, I'm scared too! Why did you come to a place like this? What are you doing here?

The man raised his eyelids slightly: "Since you don't have much on you, let's not discuss this deal for now. We'll talk again when you have some money."

"Er Gouzi, you've changed! You're not the Er Gouzi you used to be anymore!!!" Lu Qingyan glared at the man with resentful eyes.

"Is there anything else?"

He probably felt uncomfortable with Lu Qingyan's gaze, so he turned around and asked her a question.

Lu Qingyan moved closer to the man, and the magpie just stayed obediently in place, not daring to move an inch.

“No one in your line of work ever complains about not getting enough money. The things I'm asking you to do don't involve much risk, so why wouldn't you be happy? If you're not satisfied with the deposit, you can come with me to collect it. With your skills, do you think I'd try to outsmart you?” Lu Qingyan habitually brushed a stray strand of hair behind her ear and pulled out several silver notes from her sleeve: “This is a deposit of ten thousand taels. As long as you can find me, we can discuss the rest of the business, and I will make up the difference in the deposit then.”

"Let's go." Lu Qingyan waved to the magpie that was standing there dumbfounded. "Let's go back now."

Knowing that she could go back now, Magpie's eyes shone brightly. She happily followed behind Lu Qingyan, afraid of losing her mistress.

As soon as Lu Qingyan came out of the stone house, Madam Jin was already waiting there. When she saw Lu Qingyan come out, she greeted her warmly and did not forget to boast: "Sir, has the business been settled? Our Yichun Courtyard is the most famous in our generation. You won't find such good skills anywhere else. Our men are extraordinary. They will definitely handle things perfectly for you."

Lu Qingyan smiled at her: "Mrs. Jin is wrong, this matter hasn't been settled yet."

The smile on Mrs. Jin's face froze instantly. The deal didn't go through? That can't be, can it?

"Is there something you're not satisfied with, sir?" There's no reason to let go of a business that's come knocking on our door. This guy in front of us clearly doesn't have an ordinary fortune, so we can't let him go.

"Oh, it's not a big problem. I wasn't prepared and didn't bring enough money," Lu Qingyan readily admitted.

Seeing Lu Qingyan's condition, Madam Jin knew that the man wasn't short of money, he just hadn't brought any. So she wasn't impolite and instead talked to her about the man who had brought Lu Qingyan into the stone house before.

"If you had chosen someone else, you might not have gone home empty-handed. Apart from that one, the most expensive one around here is only 30,000, which you can definitely afford."

Lu Qingyan nodded: "It's true that he can afford to pay for everyone else, but others aren't him, so why should I choose someone else?"

Jin's mother: Hehe, this sounds like a love confession. Could it be that this young girl has really fallen for that person?

Jin's mother kindly advised, "Sir, if it's really urgent, you can choose someone else to do it. There's no need to insist on that one person. The others here are all quite good. Sir, you should think it over carefully. Although he is the most capable among these people, the price may not be worth it."

As Mrs. Jin was speaking, she suddenly felt something hit her head, and she couldn't help but cry out, "Ouch!"
