Chapter 421: Chapter 423: Ready to Work_1

"Sister, the little beggar can provide various services for you for free, no remuneration needed."

"Go away. How shameless can you be, calling yourself ’sister’ when you are a few years older than me?" Nan Feng retorted, flipping off Xue Ling’s conical hat, revealing her hair cascading down to her waist.

Looking somewhat disappointed, Xue Ling slowly pulled off the beard from her face and tossed it aside, "Ah, this isn’t fun at all!"

"When did you arrive in Wanjing County? You didn’t take the same ship with me, did you? Did you follow me secretly when you saw Dragon Three board the ship?" Nan Feng questioned.

"Exactly, that’s what I did--take the same boat secretly," Xue Ling admitted, it was clear she often engaged in such illogical acts.

Nan Feng suddenly remembered that during the process of unloading goods, Xue Ling had been on the same ship. She had been disguised as a boatman pulling ropes on the deck, while Nan Feng was chatting with Dragon Three and had paid no attention to Xue Ling.

Worried that Xue Ling might misunderstand her relationship with Dragon Three, Nan Feng started explaining, "Dragon Three and I are just friends, don’t misunderstand. I have a fiancé--Dragon Three is not my cup of tea."

Xue Ling looked disheartened, "I know, but... "

She let out a sigh: "We’ve known each other for so long, he’s never once smiled openly at me. I’ve always thought he was a person who never smiles. But today, seeing him chatting and laughing freely with you, I realized that he does smile, he just never gives that smile to me."

Nan Feng patted Xue Ling’s shoulder in sympathy, but she didn’t know how to console Xue Ling, the pursuit of Dragon Three had become a years long habit, and it wouldn’t end so easily.

At this moment, a worker from the shop approached Nan Feng and asked, "Lady Nan, are we ready to go?"

"We are ready. Follow me, I will take the first carriage," Nan Feng responded before asking Xue Ling, "I have to go to work, what will you do? Are you going back to Ping County or staying in Wanjing County?"

Before Nan Feng could consent, Xue Ling jumped into her carriage and lifted the curtain, "What are you waiting for, come in."

"..."

Nan Feng thought, if we were in modern times, Xue Ling would be a free-spirited girl, a bit artsy, lazy, and would smoke when bored. She loves wholeheartedly and has a tendency to self-sacrifice, often losing herself in the process.

If she is treated sincerely by someone, she feels like the happiest woman in the world. But if she falls for someone who doesn’t love her back, her life would be very hard, because she would have already given up on herself.

"I’m in Wanjing County to open a shop and do business. I don’t have time to entertain you," Nan Feng bluntly told Xue Ling.

Nan Feng always knew what she wanted and when to do what. Since she was in Wanjing County, she ought to devote herself completely, open the shop as soon as possible, and then return to Ye Ge.

However, Xue Ling was leaning lazily in the carriage, winking at Nan Feng, "Rest assured, I’ll help you for free, and I won’t cause you any trouble. You won’t need to entertain me, I’ll eat what you eat, live where you live, and I won’t even take wages. You should be satisfied with such a helper, right?"

"What about Xue Ling Square in Ping County? Aren’t you going to take care of it?" Nan Feng asked, "Are you not going to sell your thirty boxes of Spikenard Square masks daily?"

Xue Ling smiled, "No matter how irresponsible I may be, I wouldn’t abandon your masks. I’ve already sold out all the inventory I got before. Yesterday was the day to get the new inventory, but I didn’t go, right? So, if I didn’t pick up the new inventory, what could I sell?"

After that, Xue Ling put a black purse embroidered with fish eye tears in front of Nan Feng: "Nan Feng, please take pity on me, let me follow you. I’ll die if I don’t get out and about."
