Shen Shen Shen doesn't pursue men, only money

Ting'an Tea Shop.

Because it was early in the morning, there were no other customers in the shop, so the four of them stood out. Shopkeeper Liu had been looking at the four top "second-generation officials" of the dynasty, but because of their status, he did not dare to approach them.

The maids, guards, servants, etc. who accompanied the four of them all stood far away. As servants in a wealthy family, everyone knew: the less you know about your master's secrets, the better.

Because of the answer just given by Prince Zhu, the eldest son of Prince Zhong, the four of them fell into silence.

"Brother, God, and Master Mu." Zhu Zhixi was the first to break the silence. She was an outsider, and at the moment, she was the most suitable person to ease the awkwardness: "There's an empty seat over there, how about we sit down and talk?"

Shen Shenshen realized that she and Mu Yejun had been standing and talking. She had planned to send him away, but now it seemed impossible. Zhu Zhixi reminded her and found that the four people had been standing all the time, which made them stand out in the store. Thinking of this, she turned to the person who had been looking over here and said, "Manager Liu, is there a private room in the store?"

Shopkeeper Liu quickly walked up to the four people, bowed deeply to the four second-generation officials, and then said to Shen Shenshen flatteringly: "In reply to Second Miss Shen, there is indeed a private room in the store. Please follow me."

Shen Shenshen got a little angry when he heard this, and he kept scolding as he walked: "I'm not saying anything bad about you, Shopkeeper Liu, but when the prince and the seventh girl came in just now, you should have taken everyone to the private room immediately, instead of making everyone stand for so long. You have no sense of service at all, so I give you a bad review."

"Miss Shen is right." He nodded and bowed in fear, while secretly complaining, "How dare I interrupt the prince and Mr. Mu when they are talking to you. Hmm? Service awareness? Bad review? What does that mean?"

The other three people were also confused: Service awareness? Bad reviews? What does it mean?

The layout of the private room was very simple. On one wall hung a calligraphy work written by some great scholar. On the other wall was a specially customized display cabinet with different types of tea on it. The aroma of tea was fragrant. There were two windows facing the backyard of the tea shop, and the room was bright with light coming in. In the middle of the room was a large round table made of fine wood and eight armchairs.

Zhu Yanxiao sat in the main seat without hesitation, and Mu Yejun followed, smiled, and sat opposite Zhu Yanxiao. Shen Shen was originally going to sit next to Zhu Zhixi, but the prince pointed to the seat next to her and said, "Shen Shen, sit next to this prince." The helpless Second Miss Shen smiled at the handsome young man who was smiling gently opposite her, and sat next to Zhu Yanxiao.

Mu Yejun raised his eyebrows slightly this time.

The waiter in the shop, despite the low pressure, quickly served the four people the best tea in the store and placed a few plates of snacks to entertain the guests. Then the waiter ran out of the private room as if escaping, and closed the wooden door of the private room with a very "service-minded" attitude.

Mu Yejun raised the teacup and sniffed it, then took a sip of the tea and said, "The tea in this teahouse is good." Looking at Shen Shenshen who was sitting diagonally opposite him, he said, "Second Miss Shen, I won't keep you in suspense. There is only one thing I don't understand. I hope you can solve it."

"Mr. Mu, please speak."

"Second Miss Shen can be called Huai Bi."

Shen Shen sighed inwardly, what happened today?

"Huai Bi, please speak."

Zhu Yanxiao had no expression on his face and did not speak. His index finger began to tap the table lightly.

"Does Miss Shen have an engagement with Prince Zhu? Why does Lord An Bo want to marry into our family? Or..." He asked with some ill intentions: "Prince Zhong and Lord An Bo were not aware of it, and it was just the two of you who were secretly communicating with each other?"

Secretly giving and receiving. In Dongxiang, it is the most despised. It is an affair that disregards propriety and shame and is carried out behind the backs of elders and parents. Once it is confirmed, the marriage prospects of all the younger generations of the two families will be ruined. No noble family or even an ordinary and upright family will marry a brother or sister who has a secret relationship with someone in the family.

He continued, "My younger sister Chuchu has always had a crush on Master Zhu. Could it be that Master Zhu rejected her because he was secretly having an affair with Second Miss Shen?"

"Mu Yejun, what do you mean?" Shen Shenshen heard this and met the inquiring eyes of the person she was facing: "This lady solemnly answers you, I have no relationship with Zhu Yanxiao, you can believe it or not. But, if you go out of this door and make up rumors about me or Ziyuan." She suddenly smiled brightly at the handsome face opposite, but her words were without any warmth: "I promise that your so-called sister Mu Chuchu will never get married in her life, and her reputation in Dongxiang will be ruined. Do you believe it?!"

Looking at Shen Shenshen's expression, the other three were stunned. This expression and aura made people believe every word she said.

Zhu Yanxiao said, "Interesting." He paused, and continued in a cold, emotionless voice, "Mr. Mu, I have always believed that although there are frictions between our two families, they are limited to the business scope of each mansion's industry or shop. However, if you want to involve the people around you from today, you can do so."

Mu Yejun was not afraid at all, and looked at Zhu Yanxiao with a gentle smile: "Of course this young master must know his future wife thoroughly. Since my Shenshen said it's okay, then it's okay. Now that we have seen each other, Shenshen is a good wife. I will inform my parents when I return home and choose an auspicious day to propose marriage."

"Mu Yejun, are you crazy?!" Shen Shenshen was about to go berserk.

"Call me Huaibi, Shenshen."

"Engagement?" Zhu Yanxiao sneered, glancing at the smiling man opposite him: "If this prince does not agree, Mr. Mu will not be engaged."

"Oh? Really? Prince, are you so confident? How about we make a bet to see who can marry the God?"

"Just relying on the Duke of Yunsheng's Mansion?"

"Enough!" Shen Shenshen slammed the table and stood up suddenly, her face flushed with anger. She said to the two extremely handsome men, "The feud between Prince Zhong's Mansion and Duke Yunsheng's Mansion is your own business. Why do you want to involve me? You second-generation rich people have such a bad taste that you use your lifelong events to make a bet? It really opens my eyes. Well, if you don't behave like human beings, I will."

She first looked down at Dong Xiangguocao beside her and said, "Zhu Yanxiao, I'll say this for the last time. I won't marry anyone, even if that person is you. We are just partners. Of course, if the talks fail today, we don't have to cooperate anymore and we will have nothing to do with each other from now on."

Then he looked down at the handsome man sitting opposite him and said, "Mu Yejun, are you okay? You don't like me at all, but you want to marry me and sacrifice your whole life just to target Zhu Yanxiao? In my opinion, this is not only too frivolous, but also stupid."

Finally, he swept his eyes back and forth between the two handsome faces, and said seriously: "You two gentlemen are both men in their twenties. You should focus more on the most important things for yourself instead of thinking about whether to get married or not. You are so narrow-minded."
