Apart from that episode involving Mu Wushuang, everyone had a happy time eating meals at Baicao Garden.
Cooperating with Lou Xiaoxiao, one by one, they repeatedly ordered the most expensive dishes dozens of times.
When it was time to foot the bill, the person-in-charge greeted them with a beaming smile. âMiss Lou, as youâre Baicao Gardenâs VIP, all expenses are 50 percent off. Todayâs bill is 365,000,000 silver notes. After 50 percent discount, it isââ
âNo need for a discount.â Lou Qianxue also smiled. âIâm very satisfied with your service today. I plan to pay in full. Take the additional amount as a reward for all of you.â
â... Real... Really?â The person-in-charge was so surprised that he blurted out.
His face turned red as he hurriedly salvaged the situation. âSo, Miss, are you paying by cash or card...â
âUm, is Third Prince still around?â
The person-in-charge froze. âThird Prince? It seems he left a short while ago.â
âOh? How does he pay his usual expenses at Baicao Garden...â
âItâs charged to his account. The bill is sent to his mansion for settlement at the end of the month.â
âIs that so? Third Prince earlier said that he would pay the bill for our meal. You can charge it to his account.â
âUh...â
âWhen Third Prince said this, your female receptionist was also present there. If you donât believe me, you can ask her.â
After a long time, the expenses for the meal were successfully charged to Third Princeâs account.
However...
When they left Baicao Garden, they soon met Third Prince again.
âMiss Lou Qianxue.â
Third Prince took the initiative and went forward. âIâve waited a long time for you.â
âHuh?â
Considering her current look, the Prince shouldnât be able to recognize her...
âCan I have a word with you?â
Lou Qianxue raised her eyebrows and looked at him. âSure.â
She wanted to see what Third Prince was up to!
âMiss Qianxue, I wonder if Wushuang has told you about my thoughts?â After the two of them were in private, Third Prince hurriedly asked her.
Lou Qianxue shook her head.
âThen, Miss Qianxue, what do you think about the meal today?â
âVery good.â
âDid you like it?â
âYes.â
âIf you liked it, I can treat you again next time.â
âHuh?â A strange smile appeared on Lou Qianxueâs face. âSure. If Your Royal Highness doesnât despise me for eating so much today and if youâre still willing to treat me, Iâll be more than happy to oblige.â
âHahaha, Miss Lou, youâre really funny. How much can a young lady like you eat? How can I be unwilling... However, thereâs a misunderstanding between Lou Xiaoxiao and me. Do you know?â
âUm.â Lou Qianxue lowered her eyes, and a dim light of ridicule swept past them. She vaguely said, âI roughly know...â
âIt was only a misunderstanding! That forced marriage was my servantâs idea. I did not know about it before, and I did not intentionally push Miss Xiaoxiao toward danger! Miss Qianxue, can you explain this matter to Miss Xiaoxiao and âJade-Masked Blastâ?â
â...â
âIf Miss Xiaoxiao and Jade-Masked Blast are willing to forgive me, Iâll treat you to more delicious food.â
Lou Qianxue lightly coughed. âAlright. Iâll help you pass these words.â
âThatâs great! Miss Qianxue, youâre really reasonable. I like you for being so thoughtful. Youâre more likable than any of them.â
âHaha.â
Lou Qianxue was done talking to Third Prince in less than an hour.
After that, everyone parted and went their own way. Those who had classes went to the academy, and those who didnât, returned home...
An Shaoning was one of those who didnât have classes.
However...
âShaoning, hold on. I have something to talk to you about.â
Lou Qianxue stopped An Shaoning.
Everyone froze. They subconsciously glanced at Lou Xiaoxiao.
Lou Xiaoxiao also froze for a while, but then she said with a smile, âWhatâs there to look? Weâre going to be late for our lessons! We canât compare to those who havenât started school!â
After everyone left, An Shaoning gently smiled and said, âMiss Qianxue, whatâs the matter? You especially made me stay. Do you have any tasks for me?â
âIndeed.â Lou Qianxue nodded. âI need the An family to help me with something.â
âHuh? What is it?â
