Jiang Si folded his hands in front of him, his posture casual but elegant, his tone gentle and soft: "Money is only worth money if you have a life to spend it."
Ah Fei shuddered and immediately thought of the pain of being worse than death at midnight.
Although the pain had disappeared now, his back was instantly soaked with cold sweat and his heart was filled with endless fear.
He never wanted to experience that kind of pain again.
"You'll have torn my wallet into pieces soon!" Ah Man reminded him with concern.
This is the money that the girl borrowed from Fairy Liu at the cost of her dignity. It was not easy for the girl.
"There are countless casinos of all sizes in the capital. This amount of money is not a large sum to put there. Choose three or four reputable casinos and place your bets. After the success, I will give you 100 taels of silver as a reward."
"No reward, no reward." Ah Fei said repeatedly.
Jiang Si smiled and said, "It's only natural to get paid for doing things. Although you come from the market, you are a good citizen. We are not in a master-servant relationship, but a cooperation. Since it is a cooperation, of course I should give you your share of the money after the work is done."
"Well, thank you very much, young lady."
"You go ahead."
Ah Fei carefully put the purse into his arms, then felt uneasy for a moment, so he took it out, hid in the corner, took off his shoes, and stuffed the purse into his shoe hems.
Ah Man rolled his eyes in disgust: "Take off your shoes in front of a girl, do you still have any shame?"
"This is safer." Ah Fei laughed.
After all these years, he knew very well that there were many things in this world more important than face, at least this money was one of them.
When Ah Fei walked to the door, Jiang Si called out from behind: "Ah Fei——"
The shout was so soft and clear, like the clear spring water used to make tea in the teahouse in early summer, calming the restlessness in people's hearts.
Ah Fei couldn't help but stop, lowered his head and turned around: "Miss, do you have any other instructions?"
"I just want to tell you, if you don't want to be a piece of scum on the street corner for the rest of your life, then do your job well."
Ah Fei was shocked and couldn't help but look up at Jiang Si.
The girl was still sitting at the table by the window. Her dark eyes were clear and one could inexplicably sense the sincerity in her words.
Ah Fei's heart warmed up, he nodded randomly and walked out in a hurry.
Jiang Si picked up the teacup and took a sip.
"Girl, are you so confident in Ah Fei? What if he runs away with the money?"
"He won't."
It’s not so much that he can’t, but that he doesn’t dare.
Jiang Si doesn't think that anyone who has tasted the bitterness of the Soul-Severing Powder has the courage to try it again.
Just like what she said to Ah Fei just now, no matter how much money you have, you must have life to spend it.
The Soul-Severing Powder was too powerful. She had only refined a little bit of it in these days, and she used it all on Ah Fei.
After being reborn, she has a lot to do and needs a lot of manpower, but she will not use what she has learned to control innocent people.
This was her bottom line when it came to revenge against those who had done evil to her in her previous life, because she never wanted to become like them at any time.
Since Ah Fei took the initiative to come up and tease Ah Man that day, he is certainly not innocent. It is just right to catch him temporarily to run errands for her.
Jiang Si stayed in the elegant room and drank a few sips of tea, while Ah Fei had already hurried out of the teahouse.
After living to this age, all the money he has accumulated is not even a fraction of what he has in his pocket today. Ah Fei feels like he is walking with a limp and doesn't know which foot to take first.
Don't be nervous, don't be nervous...
Ah Fei was nervous and muttered to himself. Just as he walked a few feet out of the teahouse, a big dog suddenly jumped out.
"Woof——" the big dog shouted at Ah Fei with a warning tone.
Ah Fei almost jumped up, staring at the big dog in front of him as if he were facing a formidable enemy: "I'm warning you, I eat dog meat, if you dare to come one step closer, I will not be polite--"
The big dog swooped over and bit Ah Fei's butt.
"Ah——" Ah Fei screamed
Ah Man, who saw this scene from the tea room window, covered his mouth and laughed: "Girl, Ah Fei was bitten by a dog."
Jiang Si glanced outside and was stunned.
That big dog seems to be Erniu...
"Hey, girl, this big dog seems to be the big dog that gave you money that day." Ah Man was obviously impressed by the big dog that gave money to his girl.
"Girl, look, what is it doing?"
The big dog let go of Ah Fei's butt and moved down little by little with its nose sniffed, and finally bit Ah Fei's shoes and refused to let go.
Ah Fei immediately became anxious, kicking and hitting him desperately, "Let go, you little bastard!"
"Girl, could that dog find the purse we gave to Ah Fei and bring it to you?" Ah Man watched the excitement for a while and suddenly reacted.
At that time, the big dog took the purse of the man who wanted to beat the second young master and gave it to the girl. There were gold leaves and pearls in the purse.
However, thinking that Big Dog was going to do the same thing, Ah Man's mood was not good at all.
"Girl, what should I do?"
At this moment, many people had gathered in front of the teahouse to watch the fun. It would be really fun if the big dog searched out the purse from Ah Fei's shoes and brought it over to the girl in front of everyone.
Jiang Si was also dumbfounded at this time.
She has many ways to deal with people, but she can't bring herself to deal with Erniu even if she has the means.
In a moment of urgency, Jiang Si called out softly: "Erniu——"
After shouting, Jiang Si shook his head.
Maybe it was because of how special Erniu was to her that time that she subconsciously thought that Erniu was still the big dog who obeyed her every word, but that was certainly not the case.
She and Erniu, and even Erniu's owner, have long been separated by past lives and present ones.
To Erniu, she was just a stranger who aroused his interest in some way.
Erniu, who had been harassing Ah Fei downstairs, suddenly stopped and looked up at the window suspiciously.
Taking advantage of this opportunity, Ah Fei covered his butt and ran away. After running a few feet, he couldn't help but look back in fear.
Did that dead dog catch up with us?
Seeing the big dog sitting there with its front legs propped up, Ah Fei breathed a sigh of relief and ran away in a flash.
"Woof——" The big dog barked in the direction where Ah Fei left, and looked up in the direction of the teahouse.
The Jiang-like figure no longer appeared in front of the teahouse window.
Ah Man looked outside anxiously and said, "Girl, will the dog come up to you?"
Ginger seems to shake its head.
She really didn't know what was going on now. Did Erniu really stop because he heard her shouting?
"Woof——" the big dog raised its head and barked again pitifully.
Jiang Si's heart softened a little.
Do you want to go down and take a look?
But if she keeps in contact with Erniu, she won't be able to get away from that bastard.
Jiang Si still feels resentful when he thinks about his relationship with Yu Qi.
He intruded into her life inadvertently, but hid his identity as the seventh prince. He only told her that he was a citizen of the Great Zhou living in the border area, and that he got to know the elders of the Wu Miao tribe because his family had business dealings with the Wu Miao tribe.
Only after she agreed to the marriage did he reveal his identity, and he didn't allow her to regret it!
If she had known earlier that he was the Seventh Prince, she would definitely have kept her heart away from him and would not have died tragically later.
"This is the beast that bit me that day, kill it for me!" A roar suddenly came from outside the window.
