Chapter 423: Chapter 425: Able to Sleep with People_1

After finishing their meal, Nan Feng asked Xue Ling, "Are you going to stay at the inn or what? There are two rooms upstairs in my branch shop. I sleep in one, while the other is used for storage. I am not used to sleeping with others, so if you don’t want to stay at the inn, you can sleep in the storage room. It’s a bit cramped, but it’s still fit for human habitation."

Xue Ling was completely indifferent: "As long as I have a place to stay, it’s alright."

...

With all the store arrangements and selecting the good luck day, as well as finding girls from the theatre to perform dances and asking Wen Qiang from the Business Association to help arrange the venue, Nan Feng’s shop was finally ready to open after all the fuss.

And Xue Ling really helped out here, so much so that sometimes Nan Feng would order her around just like Feng Gu.

Although Xue Ling was still relaxed, she was able to fulfill all the tasks Nan Feng assigned her. She even promised to do a performance on the shop’s opening day.

Aside from the big letters "Spikenard Square" on his branch shop, there was another line of small letters, "First Branch". The layout of the shop was the same as that in Ping County, both were full of a strong womanly atmosphere. Moreover, with Xue Ling also here, she sewed various Spiritual Qi accessories for Nan Feng.

Nan Feng offered a trial promotion at first and distributed flyers. On the opening day, quite a few people gathered at the door of the branch shop. Some were there for the trial products, while some were there because they heard there would be a performance from the flyers.

In ancient times, performances couldn’t be seen everywhere like in the modern times. They usually went to the theatre to watch operas or performances. Being able to watch a performance in the open-air without spending any money was a great privilege for them.

The grand opening was similar to the Mid-Autumn Festival night, advertising facial masks while performing. They also distributed trial products to the ladies who came. The customs of the county were quite open, and among the ladies in the audience, there were no lack of elegantly dressed young ladies.

Xue Ling was the last one to appear.

Nan Feng was worried that Xue Ling was there to sabotage the show because she insisted to be the last one on stage. She claimed that compared to her, those girls from the theatre were nothing. But when Nan Feng asked her to do a rehearsal, she firmly refused. She promised to dance on the stage and assured that it would be stunning.

So after announcing the schedule to the audience, Nan Feng said to them: "The next performer is my distant cousin. She believes that she is incredibly beautiful and that her dance skills are outstanding. However, I have never seen her dance before. To be honest, I don’t know how good she is. Therefore, I hope you all will give her a chance. But don’t set your hopes too high. If her dance isn’t satisfying, just look at her face. At least she looks pretty. If you think she’s not pretty, then feel free to throw eggs at her."

The audience burst into laughter.

When Xue Ling came on stage, she glared at Nan Feng as she passed by him and Nan Feng stuck his tongue out at her in response.

Xue Ling had changed into a bright red dress, holding a sword in her hand. After she came on the stage, she said to the crowd, "My performance is a sword dance."

No polite words were used, slightly willful, but it was not offensive. Instead, it gave a sense of cuteness, and Nan Feng smiled.

The girls from the theatre had performed classical dances in flowing long-sleeve gowns. A sword dance was a novelty, as it required considerable training and Martial Arts skills to execute fluidly, combining both strength and flexibility.

Xue Ling began her dance. Her lazy eyes suddenly became sharp. Then she raised her sword, spinning it in the air several times. Her red dress fluttered along with the movements, as if she was facing a circle of enemies surrounding her.
