If that's the case, why would he play along with me?
Whether in terms of family background, talent, or appearance, I am definitely far inferior to this Miss Cheng.
After all, they received different educations.
She felt that she was not qualified to be compared with this Miss Cheng.
She dared not ask Miss Cheng to be subordinate to her.
Otherwise, the Empress would have made things very difficult for my father.
If Miss Cheng really wants to marry Prince An, she will naturally have to give up her position to Miss Cheng.
“Who would want to marry that ice block? Only a fool would want to marry him.” Cheng Qingli said without thinking, then looked at Li Zhiwei somewhat embarrassedly and said, “I wasn’t talking about you.”
Cheng Qingli thought to herself, "Oh dear, this idiot, isn't he right in front of me?"
It's true that she was familiar with Prince An, but wasn't that because that bastard was a friend of Prince An?
Thinking of that person, Cheng Qingli felt a little irritated again; he hadn't even said he wanted to marry her.
No, that sounds like you really want to marry him.
Li Zhiwei watched Cheng Qingli's expression change from frowning to beaming with joy, and wondered who this Miss Cheng was thinking about.
However, she didn't press the issue since the other person was unwilling to discuss it.
Thinking of her purpose, Li Zhiwei cleared her throat and said, "I want to start a business in the capital. The prince said that if I want to find someone to run the business with, you are the best candidate."
Li Zhiwei also knew that arguing with Cheng Qingli about who would marry Xu Heming was pointless.
Instead, you should clearly state your purpose for coming.
However, at present, apart from thinking that Qingyuzhai's management methods are good, she has not seen any business acumen in Miss Cheng. Li Zhiwei believes that Cheng Qingli's identity is more useful than these factors.
"You want to make a living in the capital?" Cheng Qingli didn't expect that Li Zhiwei had come to her because of this.
You should know that many young ladies from prominent families would think that she was wasting her time and energy running Qingyuzhai.
They all looked down on what they did.
Today, someone actually wants to cooperate with me?
That's quite unusual.
“Miss Cheng must have heard my story. I was originally going to marry into the Marquis of Ru’an’s family, but by a twist of fate, I was saved by the young master.” Li Zhiwei smiled self-deprecatingly as she said this, and then added, “My father was originally a merchant. Whether I make a living or not, they will always think that I reek of money. Rather than that, I might as well earn their money and let them laugh at me.”
Thinking of this, Li Zhiwei thought that Chang Wenying might not be interested in her, but she was definitely not the only one in the capital who looked down on her.
In her previous life, the people of the Marquis of Ru'an looked down on her, feeling that she, a merchant's daughter, was not worthy of their Lin family's status. However, they used her, a merchant's daughter, to rise step by step to great heights.
In this second life, she not only wants to protect her parents' safety.
It's also about showing those who look down on you that they, the ones they despise, will stand at a top that they can't even dream of.
"That's well said!" Cheng Qingli's eyes sparkled when she heard this. She had been angry for two days because people said they looked down on her Qingyuzhai.
Looking back now, I realize I wasted my breath.
Now, she has earned all their money, and even if they want to come to her Qingyuzhai, it depends on her mood.
"Can you tell me how you want to make all their money?" Cheng Qingli became interested; after all, she also wanted such a grand goal.
"Of course." Seeing that Cheng Qingli was interested, Li Zhiwei didn't mind sharing her thoughts.
"What do you think women in the capital care about most?" Li Zhiwei asked.
"They're so vulgar, always comparing family backgrounds and husbands' families." Thinking of those women in the capital, Cheng Qingli lost much of her interest.
"Family background and husband's family are things I can't change just because I want to. But a woman's looks are 30% natural and 70% about how she dresses. If she doesn't dress well, no matter how pretty her face is, if she wears unsuitable clothes and jewelry, would you still think that girl is pretty?" Li Zhiwei said to Cheng Qingli with a smile.
