“Ahem!”
Nalan Ziyan coughed lightly and after looking around, he said: “Father, this is a public s.p.a.ce. Do save me some face.” As he spoke, he saw a graceful black figure out of the corner of his eye and his eyes lit up.
“Father, take a look by yourself! I won’t accompany you anymore.” Without waiting for his father’s reply, he walked towards the graceful figure in black not far away.
“Young Miss Leng Shuang.” Nalan Ziyan came to the figure and bowed to her with a smile: “Do you remember me? I’m Nalan Ziyan. We met a few days ago.”
Leng Shuang glanced at the man in front of her and nodded: “Young Master Nalan.”
“You remember me! That’s great!” He said happily, his face was filled with joy.
When Patriarch Nalan saw his youngest son talking to the woman dressed in black, he couldn’t help but stared: “They are all worrisome!” He shook his head then turned around and began looking at the pills on the first floor.
“Can I help you, Young Master Nalan?” Leng Shuang looked at the person in front of her strangely. The first time they had met, he had approached her out of the blue and told her his name. Today, he had once again approached her out of the blue, what did he want?”
“Uh, well…” He turned his gaze and said: “Young Miss Leng Shuang, I would like to look at the medicines. Please can you show me around?”
“I have something to do. If you would like to look at medicines I can have someone else show you around.” After she had spoken, she walked over to a woman and instructed her before Nalan Ziyan had a chance to respond.
“Take Young Master Nalan to look at the medicines and show him around.” After she had instructed the woman, she nodded at Nalan Ziyan then turned and walked away.
“Young Master, this way please.” The woman gestured to Nalan Ziyan.
Upon seeing this, Nalan Ziyan smiled and waved his hand: “It’s alright, you can go and do your job! I will look around by myself.” He wasn’t in the mood because the person he wanted company from wasn’t free. In that case, he may as well walk around himself.
The attendant was taken aback for a moment, then she nodded: “Young Master can look for me later if you need to.” She bowed politely and left.
Mo Chen sat at the table in the attic and took a sip of his tea. He said: “It’s quite unexpected that the whole city is filled with the Unique Fragrance Pill! There are barely anyone in the other places because everyone has flocked here to watch the excitement.”
He looked at Feng Jiu and said: “How did you come up with this method?”
Feng Jiu smiled slightly: “I am an alchemist, how difficult can it be for me to refine such a pill?” She poured two cups of tea and moved one cup to Xuanyuan Mo Ze whilst she drank the other cup.
“Men are curious by nature, so as long as we grasp on to that, we don’t have to worry about customers not coming to our door. Besides, the pills and medicines that I sell here are expensive and not affordable for ordinary people. Even if we didn’t have customers today, our reputation would have spread about the fact that I have refined the Unique Fragrance Pill.”
Xuanyuan Mo Ze smiled and asked: “What is the origin of those people today? I heard that it was caused by you carrying someone into the back courtyard? You should have let the tiger back into the mountain, aren’t you afraid of causing unnecessary trouble?”
Feng Jiu played with the teacup in her hand and smiled:”Some troubles are unavoidable. Avoiding it isn’t a good way to deal with it.”
