Mu Shaoling must have thought that Yang Chuxia asked him for help. Does she really believe that Mu Shaoling would not ask Yang Chuxia about such a trivial matter?
Hmph, when she achieves her goal, even if Yang Chuxia finds out about it soday, what difference would it make? At worst, she’ll just have to treat Yang Chuxia a little better after her rise to success. It’s not like she’s doing sothing bad; she just wants to lead a life of luxury in food, drink, and clothing.
Shen Qiu’s thoughts changed several tis.
Upon hearing that it was Yang Chuxia who had sent soone to find the young master, Manager Mu hesitated for a mont before saying, "Please wait a mont, miss. Allow to inform our young master."
"Go ahead."
After Manager Mu left, Shen Qiu’s maid whispered to herself, "They really underestimated us. They just said he wasn’t here."
This was originally ant to express indignation on Shen Qiu’s behalf, but in the ears of Shen Qiu, who wanted to surpass Yang Chuxia, the aning changed. Wasn’t this saying that her face value was not as great as Yang Chuxia’s?
Thus, Shen Qiu glared at the maid, causing her to shiver. The maid thought to herself that now not only would she lose her allowance, but she was likely to be punished by kneeling. All she could do was pray that the person would be willing to help her young lady, or else she would be even worse off.
At this mont, Mu Shaoling was studying so dicinal herbs, which were intended to treat Luo Linhao’s eyes.
When he heard that a young lady nad Shen Qiu had co to visit, he didn’t even think about it and directly said, "I’m not seeing her."
Manager Mu added, "It seems that Miss Yang Chuxia asked her to co to find the young master."
"Xiaxia asked her to find ?"
"That’s what she implied."
Mu Shaoling thought to himself, how could Xiaxia ask her to find him? Shen Qiu and Xiaxia’s relationship wasn’t that good, and it seed unlikely that she would ask her to co in case of any important matter. Since that was the case, it must not be sothing significant.
Originally, he thought of not seeing her at all, but since it involved Yang Chuxia, he decided to spare so ti to et her.
"In one hour, bring her up."
He glanced at the dicinal herbs on the desk, thinking that they should be ready in an hour.
"Yes."
Manager Mu went downstairs to find Shen Qiu still waiting nervously.
"The young master is busy at the mont. Please wait a little longer, miss."
Hearing this, Shen Qiu was overjoyed. She initially thought that Mu Shaoling wasn’t willing to see her and felt disappointed. However, the latter part of the sentence turned out to be asking her to wait. It didn’t matter how long she had to wait, as long as he was willing to see her.
She happily took out so small silver pieces to reward Manager Mu. However, he accepted the money, then handed it to the small shopkeepers. He, being a lofty manager, would only accept rewards from soone of the young master’s caliber. When had it ever been the turn of an unknown person to reward him? As the manager of a powerful family, Manager Mu was also very proud.
Though he said it would take an hour, it actually took about half an hour. However, Shen Qiu dared not show any displeasure.
"I heard you wanted to see ?" A languid and cold voice ca from behind the desk, making Shen Qiu’s heart tighten up.
"Yes," Shen Qiu replied obediently.
Mu Shaoling idly played with the tea flower in his teacup without ever lifting his head. Shen Qiu couldn’t see his expression and couldn’t tell from his simple words if he was happy or displeased.
Thinking of her purpose for standing there, she mustered her courage and bravely said, "Xiaxia asked to find you, hoping that you could help participate in the draft."
