Chapter 310 She is different from others
"Of course not, it's the eldest lady of the East Mansion who looks down on him." The old man quickly flattered her with a smile.
"What? Do you think I'm here to snatch Li Rongsen? I'm here to see An Yan. Where is she? Call her out." The eldest lady of the East Mansion said as she sat down at the table and stared at Yan Qingqiu.
Yan Qingqiu also stared at her.
"This woman is so beautiful, no wonder so many people have voluntarily withdrawn." The eldest lady of the East Mansion looked up and down at Yan Qingqiu.
"Of course, who else in this world can be prettier than me?" Yan Qingqiu said with a smile.
"What's the use of being pretty? Can you fight?" asked the eldest lady of the East Mansion.
Yan Qingqiu was afraid of revealing his flaws, so he stopped talking.
The eldest daughter of the East Mansion urged the old man again, saying, "Hey, where's the city master? Tell her quickly that I'm here."
"I just arrived and heard your voice." An Yan said as she walked in from outside, with Li Rongsen following behind her.
The eldest daughter of the East Mansion smiled and said, "I came here to thank you. Zhou Ziyi has been much more obedient recently and has even started to show off his power."
"Why, he will please you."
"Not bad, indeed." The eldest lady of the East Mansion nodded slightly and added, "It's a pity that he's not sincere. He only tries to please me because he wants to escape. He doesn't really like me."
An Yan just chuckled. She sat down at the table and asked the old man, "How have you been these days?"
"It's time to send another batch out soon," the old man told her, then handed her the list and said, "Look, so many people have already left. They're all insecure about their appearance."
An Yan looked over at Yan Qingqiu and said, "When does the competition start?"
"Let them compete by themselves first, and then the top 100 can continue competing." The old man thought this would be easier.
"Hey, you should go and take a look. After all, love doesn't rely solely on appearance. Even strength of force depends on chemistry, right?" An Yan said to Li Rongsen seriously.
Li Rongsen was unhappy to begin with, and now he became even more unhappy after hearing her say such things, but he didn't know what to say.
The eldest lady of the East Mansion said, "Hey, I brought someone with me and I want to introduce him to you."
The old man looked at the eldest lady of the East Mansion and instantly understood what she meant. He smiled and said, "Why, are you trying to cut in line?"
"That won't do. The team formation cannot be broken. Everyone has to line up, no matter who they are." Yan Qingqiu said seriously.
"Why are you so anxious? Are you afraid she'll be prettier than you?" The eldest daughter of the East Palace chuckled and added, "All of you, go out. I have something to say to the City Lord."
An Yan lowered her eyes and said, "There's no need to go out. Didn't you say you would introduce me to someone? Then please come up."
The eldest lady of the East Mansion first signaled her servants to bring the person in.
This girl is so beautiful, she is comparable to An Yan's stunningly beautiful face. She is truly a beauty that is hard to find in the world.
There was a generosity and composure between her brows, which was indeed different from other girls.
But Li Rongsen didn't even look at her. Even Yan Qingqiu was unconsciously attracted by her appearance. It turns out that there are always people better than you.
The eldest daughter of the East Mansion said, "This is the daughter of my deceased brother. I haven't seen her for over ten years. They have been living in seclusion, but now they have come to see me. I had to bring her here to see if there is anything I can do to settle her down. They haven't had a good time there in recent years, so they're looking for a place to rely on. Of course, I can't do as well as you do."
An Yan actually understood what the eldest lady of the East Mansion meant and asked, "What's her name?"
"Lingxian." Lingxian spoke herself, and her voice was naturally pleasant to the ears.
Yan Qingqiu looked her up and down, but he really couldn't find any fault with her. Moreover, the woman named Lingxian also looked at Li Rongsen with tenderness in her eyes, as if she was very satisfied with him.
"Hey, I just saw that the lotus flowers in your garden are blooming beautifully. Can you take me to see them?" The eldest lady of the East Mansion deliberately found an excuse to pull An Yan out.
An Yan nodded and went out with the eldest lady of the East Mansion.
Seeing that no one was around, the eldest daughter of the East Palace said to her, "I didn't come here intentionally to cause trouble. The people over there urged me to help, so I brought her here. She likes your city slave, and I tried to persuade her to give up this idea, but she refused to listen."
"I understand. It seems that someone has some leverage over you." An Yan chuckled.
"It turns out that they had a sum of property temporarily deposited in my hands, but because the family's situation has not been good in recent years, they took it out and spent it. I didn't make up for it, so naturally they gave me something to talk about." The eldest lady of the East Mansion sighed.
"Some other day, I'll introduce some business to you, and things will be better." An Yan told her.
The eldest daughter of the East Mansion nodded and continued, "The girl is quite good and capable. Many people were attracted to her, but she insisted on having Li Rongsen, saying that only he is worthy of her. I don't know where she got such a big heart."
"She is as beautiful as a flower. She is really good."
"I really don't understand why you did this."
"Hey, to save them from coming one by one to snatch people, let's all come together, it will save me trouble. Otherwise, I won't be able to handle it. Those who should give up should give up as soon as possible. Those who have the ability to take Li Rongsen away, can take him away, so that everyone can be safe." An Yan said.
The eldest lady of the East Mansion looked puzzled and said, "You can just tie up Li Rongsen with the red string. How dare they become an enemy of the West City? Why do they have to do this?"
"It can't be tied up. There are some unspeakable secrets here." An Yan said, but did not explain it clearly.
The eldest daughter of the East Mansion also knew her temper and did not ask any more questions. She only said, "Do you remember there is a treasure that has been lost for a long time, but it turned out to be in the hands of Lingxian's family?"
"What treasure is it?" An Yan asked.
"A treasure that can eliminate the obsession with cause and effect. All the obsession accumulated over several lifetimes can be wiped out in one stroke. Isn't it surprising?" The eldest lady of the East Mansion was shocked when she learned about this.
"Why, is she planning to use this thing to get Li Rongsen?" An Yan asked.
"That depends on whether Li Rongsen wants this thing. If not, it will be useless. Moreover, this thing cannot be eliminated casually. Someone needs to exchange his life for it. It is equivalent to putting other people's karma on another person, and he needs to use his life to eliminate it. It is actually not cost-effective." The eldest lady of the East Mansion and Anyan calculated the account.
It is indeed not worth it. It is both a treasure and a demon. It is indeed a double-edged sword.
An Yan didn't think about it and just said, "I'll ask them to prepare a banquet tonight and treat you well."
"I'm leaving right away. I have a lot of things to do over there. I'm leaving her here with you. Please help take care of her. If Li Rongsen doesn't like her, you can just ask someone to send her back." said the eldest lady of the East Mansion.
"Okay." An Yan nodded.
The eldest daughter of the East Palace left, but Lingxian was not afraid of strangers. She toured the West City and finally walked into Li Rongsen's room. Seeing him doing accounts at his desk, she said, "Mr. Li, I have heard of your great name for a long time. It is my honor."
"You're welcome." Li Rongsen still didn't look at her, only focused on the documents in his hand. He said, "There's a banquet outside. You should go over there. There's nothing interesting here."
"Why don't you look at me, Mr. Li? Are you afraid or unwilling?" Lingxian said as she walked closer to Li Rongsen.
Li Rongsen said bluntly: "I'm just too lazy to watch."
"You're afraid. You're afraid that after seeing me, you'll be shaken." Lingxian confidently challenged Li Rongsen, but seeing that he remained unmoved, she added, "You're just afraid that you'll fall in love with me."
