"What's going on?" Shen Qionghua couldn't help asking as soon as she entered the private room of Shidinglou.

After he finished speaking, he saw Pei Liangchuan, who was sitting opposite An Jin with an angry look on his face, and a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

An Jin quickly stood up when he saw Shen Qionghua coming and said, "The letter didn't explain it clearly, so I asked Miss to come over."

It turned out that after Zhou Lingyi was humiliated that day, he probably didn't want to think about what happened that day and never came to Shiding Tower again. An Jin originally thought that the Yongning Marquis' Mansion was quiet, but a few days later, Prince An came to Shiding Tower in person.

He also personally told An Jin that he wanted to meet the owner of Shidinglou, saying that he had an opportunity to soar to fame to give to the owner of Shidinglou.

An Jin was not stupid either. How could a fool be able to manage such a large Shidinglou in such an orderly manner? He immediately guessed that Zhou Lingyi's previous meeting with the owner of Shidinglou was just a cover, and the real person he was going to meet with the owner of Shidinglou was Prince An.

After figuring this out, it became clear what exactly the 'opportunity to soar to the sky' that King An mentioned was.

While An Jin felt contempt in his heart, he naturally rejected Prince An's request for a meeting.

Afterwards, Prince An came in person twice more, but was rejected both times, so he gave up.

An Jin originally thought that Prince An had calmed down.

Until yesterday, Prince An came to Shidinglou with confidence. This time he did not want to meet the owner of Shidinglou, but to meet the shopkeeper An, also known as An Jin.

When they met, they found out that Prince An had been secretly investigating An Jin, and discovered that the pastry-making methods of Shidinglou were all taught by An Jin. They also found out that An Jin had been sold to a brothel, and later when she was escaping, she was rescued by a kind-hearted woman and set free.

After finding out this, Prince An felt that he had something on An Jin, so he hurried to find An Jin.

Prince An threatened An Jin that she should either tell him the owner of Shidinglou or become a concubine in Prince An's mansion, or else he would spread the news that An Jin was sold to a brothel.

The owner of this Shidinglou, Mr. An, once lived in a brothel. Let’s see who would come to this Shidinglou again.

After hearing the whole story, Shen Qionghua almost couldn't help laughing out of anger.

To put it nicely, he wanted her to be a concubine, but in fact, he just wanted to find a reason to make An Jin work for him.

An Jin had lived in a brothel. If Prince An wanted to take An Jin as a concubine and control her, he would definitely use this as an excuse to make An Jin a concubine of the lowest rank.

In this dynasty, concubines can be given away at will. If An Jin doesn't want to end up with a pair of beautiful arms being slept on by thousands of men, she must devote herself to opening a restaurant for Xie Qian'an and accumulating money for him to expand his power, just like herself in her previous life.

After squeezing out the remaining value of An Jin, he was kicked away, leaving no trace of his body.

Xie Qian'an...his methods are still so despicable and shameless, so disgusting. It seems that the last incident has not taught him a lesson.

Now he not only wants to get something for nothing, but also wants to force a good woman to be his concubine!

Pei Liangchuan's anger, which had just subsided, was instantly provoked again, "This shameless man, he still calls himself a prince, bah! He's not even as good as me."

Pei Liangchuan cursed angrily, and the golden folding fan in his hand banged against the table. Fortunately, the handle of the fan was made of gold, otherwise it would have broken if he had knocked it so roughly.

What a piece of crap! He is worthy of being called a prince. It seems that the current emperor is extremely blind.

Even the reason he charged such a high consultation fee was because he was confident that he could treat those difficult and complicated diseases. Even so, many patients' families secretly said that he was robbing them.

If you ask him, this so-called King An is the real robbery!

Shen Qionghua was brought back to her senses by this thought. She looked at the extremely angry Pei Liangchuan with some surprise and asked, "Doctor Pei, why are you here?"

After Doctor Pei cured Prince Rui of the poison, he stayed in the capital and refused to leave. Shen Qionghua thought that the Shen family was not short of this little money anyway, so she agreed to continue paying for his room in Donglai Pavilion so that they would have someone to turn to if anything happened.

Unexpectedly, Pei Liangchuan, who always took advantage of the situation, suddenly changed his temper and refused to accept the Shen family's renewal fee no matter what.

Let's be frank. If the Shen family renews the room fee, it will be difficult to quote the medical fee in the future.

Shen Qionghua expressed her understanding and let Pei Liangchuan pay the room fee himself.

But the problem is why Pei Liangchuan continued to pay for the room in Donglai Pavilion, and why he appeared in Shidinglou and in this private room, and he was extremely angry about this matter.

Even angrier than her.

Even angrier than An Jin, the person involved?

Facing Shen Qionghua's question, Pei Liangchuan's face, which had always been thicker than a city wall, rarely showed a blush. Just as he was about to speak, An Jin spoke first.

"Miss, what should we do now?"

An Jin was not afraid of others knowing her past experiences, but she was afraid that if others knew that she had been to a brothel, it would affect the business of Shidinglou.

The lady rescued her from the brothel and gave her money to help her start a career.

An Jin is very satisfied with her current life. As the manager of Shidinglou, she can feel that she is no longer the useless person who lived in a brothel and could only beg for mercy. She is now able to take control of her own life.

Shidinglou is developing very well now, and An Jin doesn't want Shidinglou to be ruined because of him.

Pei Liangchuan's thoughts were immediately diverted by An Jin, and he angrily said, "What should I do? If it doesn't work, I'll just climb over the wall into Prince An's mansion, poison him, and then go on the run."

"There's more than one country in this world. When the emperor dies and Xie Nanyuan becomes emperor, I'll come back."

An Jin and Shen Qionghua were both stunned by his remarks.

An Jin angrily retorted, "Could you please stop causing trouble and saying such unrealistic things?"

"If you really poison him, you won't even be able to leave this city gate and will be thrown into the dungeon."

"You underestimate me too much." Pei Liangchuan couldn't help but mutter.

Shen Qionghua watched the two of them interacting, and the strange feeling in her heart became even stronger. She said, "That's enough!"

The two of them stopped talking and looked at her.

Shen Qionghua cleared her throat and said, "He went through so much trouble just to see me, didn't he?"

"See you then!"
