The capital truly was a bustling place. The streets were bustling with activity early in the morning, and the sounds of peddlers everywhere were pleasant to the ears.
"We're here." Zhang Xingyan brought them to the exquisite shop.”!
"This shop is so big, but it's called a 'small shop'. It must be a hidden tiger.”Yue Qingyuan said softly.
"Exquisite shop, exquisite bag, exquisite person, exquisite heart.”Shangguan Ruoyu said indifferently.
"Hahaha, what an exquisite person with an exquisite heart. Miss Lin, please.”Zhang Xingyan laughed loudly. Why wasn't she an exquisite person?
As soon as they entered, they knew how famous the Linglong Bun was. It was the best way to express that it was full. Shangguan Ruoyu couldn't help but wonder if they would be lucky enough to try this special bun.
"Shopkeeper, I have reserved a table. Let the waiter lead the way.”
"Yes, Young Master Zhang. You came early in the morning to make a reservation and didn't dare to forget about you.”The shopkeeper flattered.
"Sir, please." The waiter brought them to the second floor.
"Big Brother Zhang, you came early in the morning to make a reservation.”Murong Ling's voice carried a hint of playfulness.
"Hehe, Sister Murong, you must be laughing at me.”Zhang Xingyan glanced at Shangguan Ruoyu and smiled.
"This exquisite bun is really delicious." Murong Ling put down her chopsticks and licked her lips, still wanting more.
"Do you want another cage?" Zhang Xingyan asked.
"Ling 'er, eat less. Don't eat too much.”Shangguan Ruoyu stopped her. Ling 'er had no restraint when she met something she liked.
"En, Big Brother Zhang, I don't want it. No matter how delicious the bun is, it's still a bun. If I eat too much early in the morning, I won't be able to digest it.”
"You're afraid that your stomach won't have any snacks later, right?”Yue Qingyuan teased.
"Uh, hehe." Murong Ling smiled embarrassedly, and everyone else laughed in understanding.
Zhang Xingyan looked at Shangguan Ruoyu, who was smiling. He felt that everything around him seemed to have brightened up, and a warm current flowed through his heart.
"Miss, my master has invited you." Suddenly, a servant girl stood beside them and said to Shangguan Ruoyu.
Shangguan Ruoyu looked in the direction of the servant girl's hand and saw a woman sitting alone by the window. It was Li Xi.
Although Shangguan Ruoyu was curious why Li Xi would look for her, she was also very curious about Li Xi. She got up and walked towards Li Xi.
"Xiao Yu, wait for me!
"Sister Yu, I'll go too."
"Miss Lin…"
Without waiting for Zhang Xingyan to finish, Shangguan Ruoyu turned around and shook her head, signaling them not to follow. Only then did the three of them sit down, but their eyes were fixed on Shangguan Ruoyu.
"Miss Lin." Li Xi stood up and nodded slightly.
"Miss Li." Shangguan Ruoyu also smiled politely and sat down.
"May I know why Lady Li invited me?”Shangguan Ruoyu asked directly. She didn't want to beat around the bush with Li Xi. Her intuition told her that Li Xi wasn't simple.
"Actually, that day on the ship, Li Xi wanted to ask Miss Lin why she wanted to see me, but it was not convenient.”
"Oh, I see. It's just that when I heard Miss Li Xi's song that day, I wanted to see the person who played the zither. If it brings any trouble to Miss, then it's Ruoyu's fault.”Shangguan Ruoyu's words were reasonable.
"Li Xi naturally has no problems. It's just that it's a little strange that you wanted to see me the moment you heard the song.”Li Xi also knew that Shangguan Ruoyu was not a simple person. She was in a bad mood that day and was invited by the Seventh Prince. It was not good if she did not go, but even if she went, she could only play the piano so-so. However, Shangguan Ruoyu wanted to see her, and Murong Ling's behavior was also very strange. She walked around after meeting her, which was not the behavior of ordinary people.
"Ruoyu doesn't know whether I understand or not. I only heard that Miss Li Xi didn't play the true water level, so I wanted to hear Miss Li Xi play a real song.”
"Haha, Miss Lin is really humble. You can tell that Li Xi doesn't play the genuine zither, so how can you not know the zither? Perhaps he was even better than Li Xi.”
"Lady Li Xi is a talented woman widely known in the capital, and Ruoyu naturally can't compare to her.”Shangguan Ruoyu said.
"That's just a false reputation." Li Xi waved his hand. There was a trace of worry between his brows, but he instantly returned to his calm appearance.
Although the sadness flashed past, Shangguan Ruoyu still caught it. He thought that she probably didn't care much about fame, so he had a good impression of her.
"Miss Lin, I wonder when we can play the zither together.”Li Xi also wanted to test Shangguan Ruoyu's strength.
"Sure, I also want to listen to Miss Li Xi's zither music.”Shangguan Ruoyu said sincerely. She really wanted to hear Li Xi play the piano. She believed that he would not disappoint her.
"Miss Lin, five days later, come to the Prosperous Fragrance Brothel and we'll spar with each other. How about that?
"Alright, Ruoyu will be at the Full Fragrance Restaurant in five days.”
"Then Miss Lin, I'll take my leave first. If I don't let you go back, those people will probably rush over and eat me.”Li Xi smiled and stood up.
"Miss Li Xi, please forgive us. They have no ill intentions.”Shangguan Ruoyu said embarrassedly.
When Ruo Yu returned to Murong Ling's group and told them about the zither, Yue Qingyuan frowned in disapproval before Murong Ling could say anything.
"Little Yu, how can a woman like you go to a brothel? No, don't go.”
"Miss Lin, I also feel that this is inappropriate.”Zhang Xingyan also shook his head, although he really wanted to hear her play the piano.
"So what if a woman goes to a brothel? That Miss Li Xi is also a prostitute. Why do you still like her so much? Moreover, I heard that the people in the Prosperous Fragrance Brothel sell their skills and not their bodies.”Murong Ling pouted. Really, he actually looked down on women.
"Ling 'er, just figure out the situation of the Surplus Fragrance Restaurant.”Yue Qingyuan asked curiously.
"Hehe, Anu told me." Murong Ling stuck out her tongue.
"Alright, I'll go anyway." Shangguan Ruoyu said lightly.
Yue Qingyuan looked at Shangguan Ruoyu and shook his head. Although Ruoyu looked like a gentle woman on the surface, once she made up her mind, no one could persuade her.
