Hearing Jiang Ranli's weird way of greeting, the Thirteenth Prince was stunned for a moment, then burst into laughter.
"You are such a clever girl, no wonder Brother Shi always talks about you."
"Thank you for your praise, Thirteenth Master. Since you have nothing else to do, I will leave first."
After hearing what the Thirteenth Prince said, Jiang Ranli glanced at Yinzhen out of the corner of her eye, and her mood instantly improved. Of course, her good mood was not because she was praised, but because Yinzhen was trustworthy and did not tell her secret to others.
"stop".
Just as Jiang Ranli was about to step out of the shop, an indifferent yet majestic voice sounded.
"Miss, what should we do?"
The two maids, Sixian and Sidai, were already terrified when they saw Yinzhen, and now they became even more nervous and scared when they heard his voice.
"It's okay," Jiang Ranli signaled Yixian and Sidai to rest assured, then slowly turned around and looked at the person standing with one hand behind his back not far away.
The shop was about 100 square meters, and the sunlight outside could not fully penetrate, so Jiang Ranli could not see Yinzhen's expression clearly.
"Is there something wrong, Fourth Master?" After waiting for a long time without hearing Yinzhen speak, Jiang Ranli couldn't help but break the silence.
"What are you doing here?" Yinzhen walked towards Jiang Ranli, his cold brows slightly frowned, his voice as indifferent as ever.
"I was just strolling around and walked in without seeing the shop clearly. It wasn't intentional," Jiang Ranli said, trying hard to force a casual smile.
Yinzhen lowered his eyes and looked at her without saying a word, his eyes full of disbelief.
Jiang Ranli's scalp tingled when he looked at her. As she racked her brains to think of a reason to escape, the shop owner suddenly spoke and walked quickly towards Uncle Wang.
"Hey, it's you. Is she your daughter? Are you bringing your daughter to see my shop today?"
Upon hearing this, Yinzhen nodded heavily, and his eyes became even colder as he looked at Jiang Ranli.
"Ah, the weather is so nice today. It would be a waste if we don't go out for a walk in such nice weather. As the saying goes, don't waste good time. I'll take my leave first."
Jiang Ranli secretly hated the shop owner for speaking at the wrong time. Her true identity and disguise had been seen through by Yinzhen. Uncle Wang and the others were her last secrets. She wanted to keep some cards for herself, so she left in a hurry.
"Hey, don't go. Do you think the price I mentioned is too high? We can negotiate if it's more. The annual rent is sixty taels. How about sixty taels?"
Seeing Jiang Ranli was about to leave, the shop owner spoke again hurriedly.
Upon hearing the price, Jiang Ranli slowed down his steps. The rent was reduced by forty taels. In the capital city where every inch of land is worth a lot of money, such a thing is very rare.
"Not leaving?" Yinzhen said.
Jiang Ranli raised his eyes and looked at Yinzhen seriously, raised his lips and curled up a slightly stiff smile, "I'm not leaving."
"Li'er, why did you rent this shop?" The Thirteenth Prince was amused by Jiang Ranli's deliberately forced smile and couldn't help laughing.
"Nothing, just that life is a bit boring and I want to find something to do," Jiang Ranli answered calmly, but his heart was bleeding.
It is said that people with ambition cannot bow down for a few pieces of silver. I also want to be ambitious, but I really can't stand up straight.
Money, oh money, damn money. If you had more, I wouldn’t have to do this.
"Bored?" The Thirteenth Prince was surprised by her answer. "Are you bored so you come out to rent a shop? What do you want to do? Learn how to do business like a man?"
"What are you talking about? Does that mean only men can do business?" Jiang Ranli raised her eyebrows slightly. She hated this kind of chauvinistic remarks the most.
