The Flourishing Era of Female Merchants

Bai Yi's face was contorted with rage. Feng Xianglan looked up, enduring the intense anger, and watched 'Miss Yan's' actions. Her jealousy intensified. But the next moment, her face froze completely, and her eyes widened in disbelief.

She saw the 'Flame Maiden' raise her face, and with the veil no longer covering it, her face was clearly...

"An Mi!" Feng Xianglan forgot her fear at this moment, and just stared blankly at that face. Her eyes were filled with surprise and confusion. How could it be? How could it be An Mi?

Just now, she clearly saw Miss Yan and the King of Bohai enter the inn, and there was no one else there. How come she is seeing An Mi in front of her now?!

What exactly is going on?

Feng Xianglan's mind raced, and a thought quickly became clear in her mind. She saw An Mi's expression change again and again, but she was unwilling to believe her own guess.

How could that be? Anmi is Anmi, how could Anmi be Miss Yan?

Thinking of his sarcastic remarks to An Mi last night, his face paled even more.

An Mi noticed Feng Xianglan's reaction and couldn't help but smile. That's right, she was going to confront Feng Xianglan today. She wanted to see what Feng Xianglan could do when she found out that An Mi was the secret of Miss Yan!

"Miss Xianglan, why are you so surprised? You followed me and were able to discover my secret. You should be happy, shouldn't you?" An Mi said calmly while carefully bandaging Bai Yi. Seeing Feng Xianglan's disbelief, she was quite satisfied.

Even if Feng Xianglan was unwilling to believe that An Mi and Miss Yan were the same person, upon hearing An Mi's words, she had no choice but to face the fact that this was an outcome she had never expected.

Anmi is actually Miss Yan?!

No wonder I saw An Mi leave the inn shortly after Miss Yan entered yesterday... So that's how it is!

Thinking back to the day she begged Miss Yan to take her in at the Flourishing Flame Sect, and to the night before when she mocked the King of Bohai for not liking An Mi, Feng Xianglan's face turned pale and then red.

Anmi is retaliating!

It was like an invisible slap that landed hard on her face. Presumably, An Mi had already been treating her as a joke last night!

No, it wasn't just last night. Ever since she joined the Prosperous Flame Sect, An Mi has been watching her make a fool of herself!

So, Bai Yi's attentiveness to Miss Yan was actually his attentiveness to An Mi!

Feng Xianglan bit her lip, her jealousy and resentment rising uncontrollably. Meeting An Mi's calm gaze, Feng Xianglan frowned even more. "I should be happy, An Mi. Aren't you afraid that if I find out this secret, I'll reveal your identity to the world?"

An Mi chuckled, then shrugged dismissively. "Do you think I'm afraid of having my identity exposed since I dared to let you know?"

Feng Xianglan's face stiffened. Yes, everything just now was clearly designed by An Mi. She deliberately let her know her true identity, so she wasn't afraid of her exposing her. Perhaps she even hoped that An Mi would expose her!

Indeed, An Mi no longer cares about her identity being exposed. The reason she concealed her identity as An Mi in the past was entirely to avoid arousing suspicion from the Liu family. However, she no longer cares about the Liu family. Now, she hopes to appear in front of the world as An Mi.

And Feng Xianglan... this woman certainly wouldn't be willing to be her pawn!

“Miss Xianglan can go out now and shout loudly that Miss Yan is An Mi, the second young lady of the An family.” An Mi lowered her eyebrows and spoke calmly.

Feng Xianglan bit her lip. She would never do that. Doing so would only benefit An Mi!

Once the fact that Miss Yan is the second young lady of the An family is made public, then An Yuefeng will probably cherish An Mi even more, and then I and my mother will have even less status in the An family!

"Xianglan is not a gossip!" Feng Xianglan lowered her brows and said in a low voice, suppressing the resentment in her heart.

"Oh? Is that so? I really hope you're the one who talks too much!" An Mi raised an eyebrow, having already bandaged Bai Yi's hand. She looked up and met Bai Yi's deep eyes, her heart skipping a beat. That focused gaze again... wasn't this man just a moment ago so angry? But now...

An Mi frowned, released Bai Yi's hand, and focused all her attention on Feng Xianglan.

Bai Yi, however, felt a sense of loss and at the same time made a strange discovery.

Just now, upon seeing Feng Xianglan, he once again couldn't control his resentment. Even though so much time had passed since that incident, and even knowing that Feng Xianglan was not Feng Jinlan, he still became agitated. Everything about the Feng family could become the trigger for him to remember that incident from back then.

However, as An Mi touched his hand and focused on bandaging his wound, his anger gradually subsided.

Looking at Feng Xianglan kneeling on the ground, Bai Yi's eyes narrowed. Was this the show that An Mi wanted him to watch today?

An Mi is far too arrogant. She clearly knows that Feng Xianglan is weighing the pros and cons, and even if she knows that Miss Yan is the second young lady of the An family, she would not spread the news everywhere.

She deliberately tricked Feng Xianglan!

Seeing the look in Feng Xianglan's eyes, Bai Yi's eyes remained cold, but a smile appeared on his lips as he said loudly to An Mi, "I do wish that the one standing beside me was without a veil!"

One day, he will let everyone see the tranquility beside him.

The gentle tone elicited different expressions from the two women present. An Mi's lips twitched slightly, and she lowered her brows, appearing completely calm, but a ripple of emotion flickered in her eyes, only to vanish in an instant.

Feng Xianglan's jealousy intensified. She clearly realized that Bai Yi had only ever been good to An Mi!

She hated it. Why did it have to be like this? Why was An Mi so lucky?

But she...

Thinking of Bai Yi's fury when he saw her just now, the King of Bohai had never let go of the past, and for her... wanting to get close to the King of Bohai would probably be even more difficult!

“It’s getting late, and I should head back now. If Miss Xianglan doesn’t mind, you can come back to the manor with Anmi. It’s on the way anyway, isn’t it?” Anmi’s gentle voice rang out in the room, her lips slightly upturned. Looking at Feng Xianglan’s current appearance, she seemed quite smug.

He knew her secret, but he was even more afraid of it being exposed. Ha! Wasn't that enough to make Feng Xianglan feel frustrated?

"No, no thanks." Feng Xianglan instinctively refused. Going back to the manor with An Mi? She'd probably have to endure An Mi's smug, amused gaze the whole way.
