Chapter 28 Market Research
When Ye Wanning came out after getting dressed, Su Wenzhen had already been taken away. Her face was flushed, and she looked around awkwardly.
“Sister…” Cui’er stole a few glances at Ye Wanning, and seeing that her expression was not good, she did not dare to say anything more. She just looked at her cautiously and waited for her instructions.
"Ahem." Ye Wanning coughed awkwardly twice, frowning in annoyance. Who on earth told Su Wenzhen she was here? Just now… Thinking of this, Ye Wanning's face turned even redder. She had actually been seen naked by that guy! Oh my god! This was incredibly embarrassing! Although Su Wenzhen was nominally her husband, they were only husband and wife in name only! Ye Wanning looked at Cui'er with a hint of resentment, "Cui'er…"
"I didn't call the Prince!" Seeing Ye Wanning suddenly call her, Cui'er panicked and waved her hands frantically, explaining, "I didn't call the Prince! Besides..." Cui'er frowned at her, her face full of grievance, "I was inside too, how could I have imagined the Prince would come, and he even barged in without knocking..."
Hearing Cui'er's words, Ye Wanning rolled her eyes and said somewhat irritably, "I didn't call you for this."
“If it weren’t for this matter…” Cui’er twisted her fingers, looking at Ye Wanning with a puzzled expression, “Then why did you call me, sister…”
"I..." Right, why did I call her? Thinking of this, Ye Wanning coughed twice and thought for a while before saying, "I...I...I wanted to ask you to come with me to investigate the market!" At this point, Ye Wanning's eyes suddenly lit up, "Yes! To investigate the market!"
"Huh?" Cui'er looked at Ye Wanning, somewhat bewildered. "Sister, what are you talking about? What do you mean by... market research..."
"Well..." Ye Wanning looked at Cui'er, her smile somewhat lewd, "go check how many people will wear this new undergarment..."
Cui'er was stunned, staring intently at Ye Wanning, and said in disbelief, "Sister...you really want to go out and sell these clothes!"
"What else?" Ye Wanning looked at her. Actually, she didn't want to either... Although she was a modern woman from the 21st century and wanted to be like the heroines in other time-travel novels, building cannons and conquering the world... she was just a white-collar worker. She had only touched a semi-automatic rifle when she was in school, but who knew what it was like? Thinking of this, Ye Wanning couldn't help but sigh. It's true what they say, you only realize how little you know when you need it. If only she had studied harder before!
Cui'er frowned, saying with some worry, "But... this undergarment is too..."
"Too what?" Ye Wanning squinted at her, looking at her with amusement.
Cui'er choked, her face turning red, "Too...too...too indecent..."
Ye Wanning covered her mouth and chuckled softly, her eyes narrowing into crescent moons. "How indecent is it!"
"Sister!" Cui'er said coquettishly, stamping her foot in dissatisfaction, "If you keep doing this, I won't care about you anymore, you can do whatever you want!"
"Alright, alright." Ye Wanning smiled and waved her hand. "Of course I know that. I'm not stupid enough to publicize this dress so much!"
"Huh?" Cui'er was taken aback, looking at Ye Wanning, "Then what does Sister mean..."
"We won't go looking for anyone..." Ye Wanning said mysteriously, "Someone will naturally come looking for us..."
Someone came looking for...us... Cui'er looked at Ye Wanning suspiciously. Was this really possible? She paused for a moment, then asked, "What did you mean by investigating, sister? Where are you going...?"
"Of course..." Ye Wanning smiled mysteriously, "...go to the place with the most women!"
"Huh?" Cui'er looked at Ye Wanning with some confusion. The place with the most women in Duyang City... she really didn't know that...
Seeing Cui'er's puzzled look, Ye Wanning leaned closer and said with a hint of pride, "It's... a brothel!"
"What?! Going to a brothel?"
Inside the Prince's mansion's side room, Su Wenyan was staring blankly at the clothes Ye Wanning had given him when his elder brother, the Emperor, pushed open the door and walked in. Upon seeing Su Wenzhen's appearance, he was startled and pointed at Su Wenzhen's eyes, shouting, "Brother! You...you...what happened to you! Why are your eyes swollen!"
Su Wenzhen's eyes were now filled with the beautiful spring scenery he had just witnessed when he burst through the door. He couldn't hear what Su Wenyan was saying at all: fair and delicate skin... half-concealed beauty, and those strange clothes that made her stunning figure even more alluring... As he thought about it, Su Wenzhen felt a rush of heat to his nose, only to hear a cry of surprise beside him: "Ah! Your Majesty! You're bleeding from your nose!"
"Bang!"
Su Wenyan covered his left eye, looking resentfully at Su Wenzhen who was trying to stop the bleeding. What bad luck he had! He'd been beaten up every day for the past few days... Su Wenyan felt like crying. He should have stayed outside; he must have been crazy to come back and suffer like this...
Su Wenzhen finished tidying up, then turned to look at Su Wenyan with a nonchalant expression, "What are you doing here?"
"This is my room. If I'm not here, where am I supposed to go?" Su Wenyan muttered softly.
"Ahem." Su Wenzhen coughed lightly twice, then turned his head and noticed the package on the table. He looked at Su Wenyan with a puzzled expression, pointed at the package, and asked, "What's that?"
"Huh?" Su Wenyan looked at the direction Su Wenzhen was pointing, sighed, frowned, and said with some distress, "It's all because of this second sister-in-law... Yesterday I told her you were sleeping in my room, and then I overheard them talking about the new clothes made at the cloth shop. I was curious and asked the second sister-in-law for a piece of clothing to try on, but..." He pursed his lips, "Who would have thought it would be this kind of clothing."
"These clothes?" Su Wenzhen was taken aback, then recalled the scene he had seen in Granny Sun's room. Could it be...? He reached out and rummaged through the package, only to find a square piece of cloth lying there. Although the fabric was of excellent quality... the length of the piece was too... He frowned. "Is this a new garment made by the fabric shop?"
“Yes!” Su Wenyan rubbed his left eye. “I heard it was designed by the Second Princess herself, supposedly a modified version of some kind of undergarment!”
"Nonsense!" Su Wenzhen roared, glaring at Su Wenyan and angrily saying, "Who told her to do these things!"
Seeing Su Wenzhen's anger, Su Wenyan was startled and immediately jumped up from his chair, stammering, "Brother...you...you...please don't blame me, I don't know anything!"
Su Wenzhen recalled the scene he had witnessed in Granny Sun's room. That woman, dressed like that, hadn't even called him—who was she trying to impress? Thinking of this, Su Wenzhen felt a surge of anger. This was truly outrageous! Besides him! Who else could possibly be looking at her! He gave Su Wenyan a gloomy glance, then turned and called out towards the door, "Jiang Hai!"
"Yes, Your Highness!"
Su Wenzhen narrowed his eyes slightly, "How is the Princess Consort doing?"
“Everything is normal.” Jiang Hai stared at the closed door, hesitated for a moment, and said, “However, someone just came to report that… the Princess Consort is going with her maid, Cui’er…”
Where to?
"Brothel..."
Before Jiang Hai could react, the door was kicked open with a loud bang, and Su Wenzhen stood in the doorway, looking furious. "What did you say! She's going to a brothel?"
