She was certain that Shen Xiyin couldn't do anything to her, but to her surprise, the latter calmly replied, "So what? Report it to the authorities."
Feng Ruoying was immediately dumbfounded: "What official are you reporting to?!"
“You’re abusing your power and bullying innocent people.” As she spoke, Shen Qiyin took out a document from her sleeve. It was written yesterday when she paid the deposit for the flute: “This flute is already mine. If you insist on buying it, then we can only go through the authorities.”
"It would be best to make a big fuss about this and let the officials in the Censorate know about it, so that they can impeach Vice Minister Feng for the crime of indulging his daughter in bullying others."
She picked up the flute and played with it, mischievously waving it in front of Feng Ruoying, and even asked her provocatively, "So? Still want to buy it?"
"If you don't buy it, I'll have to pay the rest of the money."
Feng Ruoying was so angry she wanted to grind her teeth.
But she didn't dare to implicate her father because of a momentary impulse, so she could only grit her teeth and endure it.
Xie Qing suddenly stepped forward and said gently, "Ying'er was just saying it casually. I really don't understand why you have to be so aggressive, Miss?"
"Why don't you try shaking the water out of your brain? Maybe then you'll figure it out."
"you……"
Even a beautiful woman with a hint of anger or resentment is beautiful.
Since arriving in the capital, Xie Qing has met countless women, and she has encountered some difficult ones. But when they argued, the harshest thing she ever said was, "You shameless bastard!"
I've never seen anyone as sarcastic as Shen Qiyin, leaving me speechless and unsure of what to say in return.
Her words were originally intended to give Shen Qiyin a reputation for being unforgiving and sarcastic, but to her surprise, Shen Qiyin was completely unaffected by her words. It was truly a case of a scholar encountering a soldier, unable to reason with her.
But having already spoken, it would be beneath me to back down now.
Then Xie Qing said, "If you are so rude, then we don't need to give in to you."
"Your order of this flute is good, but what if the shopkeeper suddenly changes his mind and doesn't want to sell it anymore?"
The shopkeeper, upon hearing this, immediately waved his hand and said, "No way! Who said I don't want to buy!" What a joke! He'd be ruining his business if they kept going back and forth like that!
A crack appeared in Xie Qing's almost perfect smile.
But she tried her best to remain calm and asked the shopkeeper, "How much does this flute cost?"
"Seventy taels."
"I'll pay double the amount; I wonder if the shopkeeper would be willing to sell to me?"
"Sell!"
The shopkeeper immediately switched sides.
Without saying a word, he quickly arranged for his assistant to pack it up for her. He then turned to Shen Qiyin and said, "I'm sorry, Miss Shen. Look at this... I'm just trying to make money with this small business. I'll return the ten taels of deposit to you. Please be lenient and don't let the authorities cut off my source of income."
Upon hearing this, Xie Qing smiled and looked at Shen Qiyin with a victorious air: "Now, what else does the young lady have to say?"
