Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord
Chapter 749 - Chapter 749 Chapter 749 Fourth Prince

Chapter 749: Chapter 749 Fourth Prince Chapter 749: Chapter 749 Fourth Prince Miss Ruan uttered these words.

Suddenly, her subordinates exploded, pointing at her and cursing with loud voices…

“Insolent! Who do you think our Young Master is, to dine and dash?”

“Exactly, our Eldest Young Master is noble and distinguished, and certainly would not care about a mere ten thousand or a few thousand taels.”

“It’s just tea, our Young Master usually spends about this much for a single meal.”

“The main issue is your suspicion of fraud; we can’t just be cheated. We absolutely cannot pay for the tea.”

The subordinates were arrogant, their fingers nearly poking Miss Ruan’s nose.

Nanny Sun’s expression darkened, her heart filled with unease. What to do if she couldn’t complete the task the Master had arranged?

As for Miss Ruan, she was clever enough to put on a troubled face and said, “If the Masters really don’t wish to pay, our brothel cannot afford to cover the cost. If there’s truly no other way, we might as well go to the government office and let the Government Official Master make a judgment.”

The subordinates burst into laughter upon hearing this proposition. Go to the government office? Wasn’t the brothel signing its own death warrant? Their Master was the current Fourth Prince, who would dare offend him?

The subordinates were smug, “Go on, hurry and report to the officials, we’ll wait right here.”

Nanny Sun glanced this way and then that, and finally, having no other choice, she said, “Miss Ruan, go report to the government office then. However, the Government Official Master judges, we shall comply, even if it means taking a loss.”

“Ah! Very well!” Miss Ruan made her way towards the exit.

Just as she nearly reached the door, Zhang Ruixuan spoke up, “Miss Ruan, wait a moment.”

Miss Ruan stopped in her tracks, turned around, and asked with a puzzled face, “What’s the matter?”

“It’s just tea, why make things so complicated with the government office? Doing so wouldn’t reflect well on anyone’s reputation.”

“Is the Master willing to pay for the tea?”

Zhang Ruixuan’s face was clouded, “Xiao Shan, settle the bill with Nanny Sun.”

Hearing this, he strode out without a moment’s delay.

Xiao Shan pulled out a stack of silver notes from his bosom, each note worth one thousand taels of silver, counted out twelve, and slapped them forcefully on the table, gritting his teeth and saying, “You’ve won this round.”

Then, he hurriedly chased after his Master.

Nanny Sun, holding a large stack of silver notes, was grinning ear to ear, as if in a dream. Just a moment ago she feared offending a person of high status, but now, with so many silver notes in hand, she was so happy she forgot which way was up.

Zhang Ruixuan and his party had not left long ago.

Xuexue emerged from the secret room.

The private room appeared quite luxurious, and a secret room had been cleverly integrated, intended originally for unexpected situations, though she had not anticipated its use so soon.

“Master, look, a full twelve thousand taels! Money in the Capital is so easy to earn.” Nanny Sun held the silver notes, her smile wide enough to hide her eyes, clearly over the moon with joy.

Xuexue replied, “You’re too pleased with yourself just for earning a little money. If you work hard, there’ll be so much more silver to come.”

“Yes, yes, your servants will follow the Master’s commands.” Nanny Sun restrained her smile, “Master, how did you know that the gentleman earlier would be willing to pay us so much silver? The Master’s calculations are so divine, you even took the government office step into account. Nanny Sun admires you to the extreme.”

Xuexue laughed; that scum Zhang Ruixuan, in her past life, she had shared his bed for years, his ambitions were crystal clear to her.

His sole focus was to ascend to the position of Crown Prince. The good image he built in front of The Emperor certainly couldn’t be tainted by a visit to a brothel revealed by the government office, lest The Emperor find out and become displeased with him. Therefore, he wouldn’t commit an act that risked much for so little gain.

“Nanny Sun, do you know who that gentleman was just now?” Xuexue asked with a smile, yet didn’t answer.

“He claimed to be from the Imperial Family, as if he were a Prince.”

“Correct, he is the current Fourth Prince.”

Although they had already suspected it, Nanny Sun and Miss Ruan were still shocked to hear Xuexue confirm that the gentleman was indeed the Fourth Prince.
