Shen Tangning's lips curled into a faint smile: "Is Your Highness also here to buy something?"
Yun An raised her chin dismissively: "This princess only came in to take a look. Whether the things here will meet my standards is still unknown."
Xiao Niang was about to step forward to greet the guest, but upon hearing this, she froze in her tracks, unsure whether she should come over.
She couldn't help but worry; this princess was not someone to be trifled with.
Shen Tangning seemed relieved: "That's great! This shop has a daily limit on the items you can buy. Princess, you're so generous. I was worried I wouldn't be able to get what I wanted."
Yun An's face stiffened, and she looked at the shopkeeper with a puzzled expression: "What do you mean? You're open for business and yet you're turning away your customers?"
Xiao Niang carefully explained, "Your Highness, all the items in our shop are handmade, and the process is complicated, so the production volume at one time is not large, and the quantity of each item is limited every day."
Actually, that's not the case. The owner said that things are valued for their rarity, and limited editions are more likely to arouse everyone's curiosity.
The scented soap had already been sold out.
On the other end, Shen Tangning pointed to several boxes of lip rouge: "Shopkeeper, please pack all of these for me..."
Yun An, quick-witted and agile, said first: "I, the princess, want them all!"
Shen Tangning looked over in surprise, her eyes clearly showing a desire to speak but holding back for some reason.
Xiao Niang asked Yun An cautiously, "Your Highness, you haven't tried the color of this lip rouge yet. Are you sure you want it?"
Yun An glanced at Shen Tangning's aggrieved expression and felt a surge of satisfaction. She said casually, "This princess only cares about whether I'm happy or not when I buy things. Besides, do you think I look like someone who's short of money?"
Xiao Niang silently lowered her head: "This humble woman dares not."
Yun An curled her lips and gave Shen Tangning a meaningful look: "Miss Shen, I'm really sorry, but since you haven't paid yet, then this princess isn't exactly stealing someone else's love, is she?"
Anyone with eyes can see that she's deliberately targeting him.
Wen Yao looked indignant and was about to speak when Gu Qingxu subtly tugged at her sleeve, glanced at Shen Tangning, and understood.
Shen Tangning pursed her lips, lowered her eyes, and looked like she was swallowing her anger: "First come, first served, that's natural."
Yun An was extremely pleased with her tact. She had only come out for a casual stroll, but she never expected to cause trouble for Shen Tangning. It was a pleasant surprise!
Shen Tangning approached the cosmetics counter, picked up a box of face powder and examined it, seemingly quite fond of it: "Shopkeeper, this..."
She had barely begun to speak when Yun An immediately interjected, "I, the princess, will take those boxes as well!"
She was surprisingly clever; taking only what Shen Tangning had would be too targeted, so she simply wanted them all.
After saying that, she blinked and looked at Shen Tangning with an innocent expression: "This princess always likes to buy the whole set of whatever she wants. Miss Shen, you don't mind having to part with what you want, do you?"
Shen Tangning: "..."
Of course she didn't mind.
She even felt a little guilty; Yun An had so willingly walked into the trap, she was almost embarrassed.
Wen Yao belatedly realized what was going on and struggled to suppress her laughter.
After repeating the same trick a few times, Shen Tangning decided to stop while she was ahead, looking dejected: "Never mind, I don't want to buy anything anymore."
Yun An's lips never left her mouth, and she said with feigned concern, "Miss Shen, isn't this just a coincidence? I didn't expect that my taste is so similar to yours. Don't be too sad, we can buy it next time."
Shen Tangning's lips twitched slightly.
Having made so much money, what's there to be sad about?
When they went to pay the bill, Yun'an's nanny's face twisted in shock upon hearing the price, and she blurted out, "How can it be so expensive?"
Can such a small item really sell for over a hundred taels of silver?
Yun An's face also stiffened.
The shopkeeper carefully chose his words: "Your Highness, you get what you pay for. Our products are all made of the finest materials."
Shen Tangning immediately turned around and looked at her with hopeful eyes.
Yun An immediately stopped feeling the pinch and forced herself to remain calm: "What's the big deal? This little bit of silver is nothing! This princess has plenty of money!"
