Mu Chunxi's face darkened, and the shadow cast by her eyelashes fell on her deep black eyes, revealing a coldness.
As Mu Yazhi spoke, she noticed that her eldest sister's aura was off and asked in confusion, "Eldest sister, what's wrong?"
Mu Chunxi subtly concealed the expression in her eyes. "It's nothing. I just feel that Shen Shuang treats her too casually. General Shen is the one who is truly sincere towards her. Her relationship with the crown prince of another country may not end well. In the end, she will probably be the one who gets hurt."
Mu Yazhi scoffed, "Mu Chenshuang probably thinks she can marry into the Western Moon Kingdom and become the Crown Princess. Who knows if Crown Prince Junheng is just playing with her? Once Crown Prince Junheng leaves the capital and abandons her, let's see where she'll put her face. General Chen will definitely look down on her."
Upon hearing this, Mu Chunxi stopped her, saying, "Ya'er, it's best to avoid saying such things in the manor in the future. It wouldn't be good if others heard it."
Mu Yazhi glanced around instinctively and lowered her voice, "Big sister, I understand. I'll be more careful in the future."
The two arrived at the gate of the Marquis's residence while they were talking.
"Ya'er, I suddenly remembered I have something to take care of right now, so I won't go shopping with you today. You can shop by yourself!"
Mu Yazhi was puzzled, but didn't ask any further questions. She said dejectedly, "Alright then, eldest sister, you go ahead and do your own thing."
Mu Chunxi went to Miaoyu Tower, walked to the counter, and asked directly, "Is your boss here?"
The shopkeeper looked up at Mu Chunxi. Although there were many beautiful young ladies from wealthy families who entered this place, there were very few women as beautiful and pure as the one in front of him.
The shopkeeper was stunned for a moment and didn't come to his senses.
"Shopkeeper, is your boss in?"
The shopkeeper then came to his senses and smiled awkwardly, "Excuse me, may I ask what business you have with my boss, young lady?"
“Of course, he has something important to discuss with him.”
The shopkeeper apologized, "Miss, I'm sorry, but my boss is a bit old-fashioned and doesn't usually see customers. If you have any business inquiries or want any styles, just tell me."
Mu Chunxi took out a white jade pendant from her bosom and handed it to the shopkeeper. "Give this to your boss, and he will naturally see me."
The shopkeeper took the jade pendant, glanced at it, and then said, "Please wait a moment, young lady."
soon.
The shopkeeper returned, presenting the jade pendant with both hands, saying, "Your jade pendant, miss."
Mu Chunxi reached out and took it.
The shopkeeper respectfully invited, "Miss, please come in this way."
Third floor.
The innkeeper pushed open the door, and Mu Chunxi walked straight in. The room was filled with a faint woody fragrance, and the decor was extremely luxurious. Whether it was the exquisite glass vases, the jade carvings, or the silk curtains, or the murals with calligraphy by masters hanging on the walls, every place exuded the aura of money, and the atmosphere of extravagance filled the entire room.
A man sat by the window, dressed in a dark blue robe. He had a refined and elegant demeanor, with a face as beautiful as jade. He exuded the air of a scholarly gentleman, yet he seemed perfectly at ease amidst the luxurious atmosphere.
He picked up the teapot with one hand, poured a cup of tea, and exuded an elegant air in his every move. "Here you are."
Mu Chunxi stepped forward and sat opposite the man, teasingly saying, "Young Master Qin's business acumen is truly remarkable; it seems he has already captured more than half of the market in the capital."
Qin Yulou parted his thin lips slightly, "Did you come here today specifically to praise my business acumen?"
“Of course I wouldn’t be so bored. I heard you have a piece of jewelry made from the finest ruby.”
