After Marrying the Officer Chapter 661: The Itchy Little Girl

"I told you, there was soone who wanted to buy my jade," she said, "he offered a price identical to another person’s, but in the end, I didn’t sell it to him."

Xia Chuyi asked proudly, "Do you know why?"

"Oh, why?" Huo Shiqian followed her lead, asking in a slightly indulgent tone with particular calmness.

Xia Chuyi said, "I’ll tell you, actually, before I sold the jade to them, I had already heard so things about Family Cheng outside the market, yes, this person is called Family Cheng!"

"I heard so things about him. They said he has a strong background, but actually, he’s not a good person."

Hearing this, Huo Shiqian frowned.

Family Cheng from Capital City with a background? There weren’t many.

He didn’t speak but continued to listen to the young girl.

"That Family Cheng, he looks refined and courteous on the surface, but actually, he’s quite domineering and sowhat fond of bullying the market," Xia Chuyi continued.

"Oh, is that so?" Huo Shiqian asked her.

Xia Chuyi nodded vigorously, saying, "Yes!"

"From my own observation, I also think this person is quite sneaky, and his words and actions are full of traps."

"Hehe." Then, Xia Chuyi laughed twice and said, "So, even though his offer was almost the sa as Housekeeper Li’s, I ultimately sold the jade to Housekeeper Li."

Then, Xia Chuyi tilted her head and continued, "But actually, Housekeeper Li may not be a good person either."

"No business without deceit, no deceit without business." Suddenly, Xia Chuyi frowned and said, "I’m not really a good person either, am I?"

Before Huo Shiqian could answer, she patted her own face confidently, "Actually, I’m not a good person either!"

"When I sell jade, all I see is money..." Xia Chuyi said sowhat plaintively.

Hearing the sound from the other end of the phone, Huo Shiqian, who couldn’t help but smile, quickly comforted her, "Sweetie, it’s a gentleman’s love of money, taken in a righteous way."

"You haven’t done anything illegal; how can you be considered a corrupt rchant?"

"Chuyi, your ’Youwei’, you pay attention to ingredients, focus on flavor... Chuyi, you are a good rchant," Huo Shiqian soothed her.

Upon hearing this, Xia Chuyi blinked and couldn’t help but ask him, "Really?"

"Mm." Huo Shiqian answered calmly.

Hearing this, Xia Chuyi nodded and said, "Mm, you’re Uncle Liberation Army."

"Whatever Uncle Liberation Army says is right!"

"I believe in you!"

Huo Shiqian: ...

No way, the drunk Xia Chuyi made him sowhat eager to scratch an itch... also itchy in his heart.

"Sweetie, it’s getting late. You should go to sleep soon," Huo Shiqian couldn’t help but say.

"It’s not late, it’s not late at all!" Xia Chuyi’s head shook like a bobble-head as she said, "I haven’t finished speaking yet!"

"I haven’t told you where I’m really impressive yet!"

Xia Chuyi blinked, then looked left and right, and whispered into the phone, "Brother Shi Qian, I’m telling you, do you know? That Housekeeper Li supposedly always avoided Family Cheng before."

"But this ti, he didn’t yield an inch to Family Cheng."

Xia Chuyi’s eyes curved like crescents, smiling brightly into the phone, "I have a guess..."

"Whether Family Cheng and Housekeeper Li are competing for this jade because recently, there’s so big jade business going on?"

On the other end of the phone, Xia Chuyi’s eyes sparkled with light.

"Brother Shi Qian, what do you think? If there really is a big business deal, and if the original stone can also yield jade, wouldn’t I make a huge profit?"

At that mont, Xia Chuyi’s eyes shimred with light that, if it could materialize, would surely resemble gold ingots.
