Bai Xianyu said, “Five hundred taels.”

Only then did Ji Shuang smile.

Lu Xi exclaimed, “Isn’t it 50 taels?”

Five hundred taels for a dress was already her limit, and she had taken it out of the money she had saved for many years.

But that dress was indeed amazingly beautiful.

Bai Xianyu smiled. “The rarer something is, the more precious it is. The price has gone up; if you don’t want it, there are still people waiting behind.”

If it was in the past, Lu Xi would never have spent so much money to buy a dress, but today was a special day.

A tall figure appeared in her mind and she was in a daze.

“Alright, I’ll buy…” She shouted for someone to bring the banknotes from the carriage. Her expression was a little pained. “You can count them.”

Bai Xianyu originally did not want to do her business, but she was a little surprised. Lu Xi actually wanted to buy it at ten times the price?

However, she would not be polite with the money that came knocking on her door.

It was quite satisfying to earn their money.

Bai Xianyu let Aunt Sheng nod in agreement and asked the service staff to get the dress.

Lu Xi took the dress and carefully stroked it. Then, she asked, “I want to change into it here. Do you think it’s okay?”

Bai Xianyu also yawned. “Up to you.”

With that, she and Ji Shuang sat back down and left everything to Shopkeeper Sheng. Shopkeeper Sheng smiled from ear to ear and led her inside.

Seeing her go in, Ji Shuang raised her eyebrows in surprise. “She bought it so expensive and can’t wait to change into it. Does she like it so much?”

Bai Xianyu shook her head. “1 don’t think so. No matter how much she likes it, she can return to the residence and order the servants to wash it before putting it on. She’s in such a hurry. It seems like she’s going to meet someone.”

Lu Xi was indeed going to meet someone. After changing her clothes, she walked along Vermillion Bird Street. There were a few pleasure boats parked on the riverbank beside her. They stopped in front of one of the most luxurious and noble two-story pleasure boats. She lifted a corner of the veil of her cone hat, revealing her fair skin and exquisite lips. Then, she took a deep breath and lifted the bead curtain—

The man closed his eyes and pretended to sleep. One of his legs was stretched out on the other. He had a strong waist and broad shoulders. His black hair was raised with a black jade crown. His eyes were handsome and cold, and he exuded a powerful aura that made people not dare to look at him directly.

She was overjoyed and walked in. She carefully lifted the hem of her dress and walked over lightly.

Before she could approach, Xie Xingyun opened his eyes, his gaze sharp.

“Young Marquis…” Lu Xi stood on the spot in a panic and did not dare to approach. “I… It was the Eldest Princess who asked me to come here to meet you.”

Xie Xingyun frowned.

“I… I’ve liked you for a long time. I don’t know if you still remember me when 1 was young…”

“I don’t remember,” he interrupted expressionlessly.

Lu Xi grabbed her dress tightly, not knowing what to say next.

But she realized that Xie Xingyun’s gaze stopped on her dress for a moment.

Lu Xi immediately perked up. “Brother Xingyun…”

He glanced at her coldly.

Lu Xi clenched her fists and changed her words. “Young Marquis, do you also think this dress looks good?”

Xie Xingyun thought of that night when Bai Xianyu seemed to be dancing in this outfit.

Under the moonlight, the girl’s smile was like a flower, and every action jumped on his heart.

Seeing him looking at her dress, Lu Xi was embarrassed. “Young Marquis, don’t look at me…”

Xie Xingyun came back to his senses and looked impatient. “Leave this place.”

Lu Xi was stunned. “Leave here? But the Eldest Princess asked me to meet you…”

“Xiao Zheng.” Xie Xingyun clearly did not want to say anything else. He closed his eyes and continued to rest.

Xiao Zheng jumped out of nowhere and gestured. “Miss, this way please.”

Although he said “please”, he blocked the way in so tightly that even the man’s figure could not be seen. Lu Xi could only look inside reluctantly before turning to leave.

After leaving the pleasure boat, Lu Xi asked Xiao Zheng indignantly, “Why is the Young Marquis angry with me? The Eldest Princess told me that he was also willing to meet me.”

Xiao Zheng sighed. He was already very good at dealing with Young Master’s love matters. He said smoothly, “The Eldest Princess told Young Master the same thing. It’s just that it’s a different person. The person Young Master is waiting for isn’t you. Miss… Uh, what’s your surname?”

Lu Xi felt neglected again. She knew this guard. He was Xie Xingyun’s trusted aide, a death guard who had followed him since he was young, but he did not know her surname.

Didn’t that mean that Xie Xingyun might not know her name?

“My surname is Lu.”

“Miss Lu, don’t stay any longer.” Xiao Zheng reminded her, “Young Master is not angry with you. Young Master just doesn’t like other women getting close to him.”

Lu Xi bit her lip.”… Yes.”

Xiao Zheng watched her leave before returning to report.

Lu Xi sat in the carriage and thought carefully about what Xiao Zheng had just said.

[… doesn’t like other women getting close to him.]

As opposed to the other women was his woman. Could it be that Xie Xingyun already had a woman by his side?

Xie Xingyun paused for a moment in the pleasure boat and slowly opened his eyes.

About half an hour later, two people walked out of the shop with the plaque “Fabric Workshop” written on it. His gaze locked onto that slender and beautiful figure.

Bai Xianyu and Ji Shuang walked out of the shop, and the dazzling sunlight enveloped them.

Ji Shuang pursed her lips. “It’s such a beautiful day, and I’m actually forced to learn needlework.”

Bai Xianyu was amused by her tone and helped to tidy her collar. “Alright, if you go back late, Grandma will assign you with more homework later.”

Ji Shuang aggrievedly got into the carriage.

Bai Xianyu put on her cone hat and walked towards a candy shop.

At this moment, a child bumped into her leg and said softly, “Sister, my father sells red date cakes. Do you want them?”

“Okay.” Bai Xianyu smiled and pinched her cheek.

When she walked to her father’s stall, the pleasure boat beside her swinging gently.

Bai Xianyu was picking when a hand suddenly reached out from behind her. She was stunned and her slender fingers subconsciously grabbed the man’s hand with hidden blue veins.

Then, an irresistible force pressed against her waist and dragged her to the side..
