The Flourishing Era of Female Merchants

The Flames of a Prosperous Age... This... This embroidery technique bears the mark of the Flames of a Prosperous Age. Were they ultimately too late?

The resentment in their hearts quickly accumulated. How could this be? They had just learned who this woman was, and now she had completely cut off their path?

"Madam Liu, don't you like it?" An Mi smiled faintly, enjoying Madam Liu's wonderful expression.

In her past life, they married her for the embroidery technique, and after using her, they showed her no affection whatsoever, treating her and her child that way. If the embroidery technique she knew was the beginning of all the tragedy, it would be more accurate to say that the Liu family's ruthlessness and greed for the technique created her tragic and short life. And in this life…

She made the Liu family watch helplessly as they relentlessly pursued what they could not obtain, no matter how hard they tried!

Madam Liu suddenly snapped back to her senses, realizing something, and forced a smile, "How...how could that be? I like it, I like it very much."

Do you like it so much? But why does your face look so unpleasant? Your forced smile looks even more awkward.

“I’m glad you like it.” An Mi lowered her brows. “There are many more in the Prosperous Flame Pavilion, many of which were embroidered by me personally. If Madam Liu likes them, you can go and choose a few more another day.”

However, the money will still be paid!

Of course, Anmi didn't actually say this to Madam Liu; she was speaking to everyone else present.

Sure enough, as soon as An Mi finished speaking, the eyes of those people lit up. In that embroidery workshop called "Prosperous Flame", there was something that the Liu family was so eager to find. How could they suppress their curiosity and not go and take a look?

As intelligent as Anmi, she could see through these people's thoughts at a glance. Seeing that her goal had been achieved, she thought that after this incident, her magnificent flames would probably be overwhelmed with visitors tomorrow!

And the Liu family... thus became a stepping stone for her. In the end, she should thank the Liu family for inviting so many important spectators, which fired the first shot for her magnificent flame.

A glint flashed in his eyes, and he said loudly, "It's getting late. I've already drunk the wedding wine and given my gift, so I'll take my leave now."

Having said that, he gave Shuangyue a wink, and under everyone's gaze, he walked out of the banquet hall with his head held high...

The vivid images of Madam Liu and Liu Zhan's expressions from earlier that day flashed through her mind, filling her with immense pleasure. Even without looking at Madam Liu and Liu Zhan, she could instantly picture the resentment and anger in their eyes.

Ha! The standoff between Anmi and the Liu family will not end here.

Her hatred and revenge against the Liu family will never cease until one side is destroyed!

Anmi left the Liu residence with unusually light steps, clearly very satisfied with this first battle against the Liu family.

Next... Anmi was pondering this when she heard footsteps behind her. Anmi frowned slightly, but was not on guard. She already knew who was following her.

However, Anmi did not stop to wait for anyone. She and Shuangyue got into the carriage. As soon as the curtain was lowered, it was lifted from the outside, and in the next instant, a tall figure was stuffed into the carriage.

"Shuangyue, go and get in my carriage. I have something to discuss with your young lady," the man ordered as soon as he sat down, his voice light and cheerful, as if he were in a good mood.

Shuangyue, hidden under the black veil, paused for a moment, glanced at her young mistress, but said nothing more, and obediently got off the carriage.

Only Bai Yi and An Mi remained in the carriage. The carriage, which was not very spacious to begin with, became even more cramped after the tall man entered. From the moment Bai Yi got into the carriage, his gaze remained fixed on her, never blinking. An Mi couldn't help but frown, especially at the smile in the man's eyes. No matter how calm An Mi was or how much she tried to ignore it, she felt uneasy.

"Has Your Highness seen enough?" An Mi finally couldn't hold back any longer and spoke softly, making no attempt to hide her protest.

Bai Yi raised his handsome eyebrows, shrugged, and thought to himself, "This woman really isn't afraid of me at all!"

Bai Yi did not answer, but An Mi's brows furrowed even more. Bai Yi seemed not to have heard her "protest" and continued to look at her as before, as if he wanted to see through her.

An Mi was even more displeased. This man had gotten into her carriage and sent Shuang Yue away. Was he just there to watch her like this?

She couldn't understand the prince's thoughts. Although they were business partners, and she did rely on the prince for some things, she didn't want to force herself to bear such pressure under his gaze. Her eyes narrowed slightly, and Anmi leaned forward, about to lift the curtain...

But as soon as Anmi's hand touched the curtain, her other wrist was grabbed and held tightly. The warmth from that large hand made Anmi subconsciously think of Bai Yi's mischievous restraint in the banquet hall of the Liu residence earlier, and she glared at him with some displeasure.

Bai Yi, however, thoroughly enjoyed An Mi's glare, and asked with a knowing look, "Where to?"

An Mi tried to break free from Bai Yi's large hand, her tone still indifferent, "Since Your Highness has taken a liking to An Mi's carriage, then An Mi will have to find another way to return."

Bai Yi naturally knew she wanted to get off the carriage, but he was still taken aback when he heard her say that. However, it was only for a moment before he regained his usual smile, pulled An Mi back to her original seat, and stared at An Mi for a long time before speaking, "Woman, you can't be too impulsive when you talk to men, and you have to be gentle when you look at men. Only in this way can you win a man's favor. The look you gave me just now... is not acceptable."

An Mi's lips twitched. She glanced at Bai Yi, remained silent for a moment, then looked away and snorted softly, "To An Mi, Your Highness is a business partner."

This time, Bai Yi's lips twitched, and the smile on his face froze completely. Bai Yi was an extremely intelligent person. Was An Mi telling him that in her eyes, she didn't even consider him, the dignified King of Bohai, as a man?

With a bang, something exploded in his head, and his eyes turned deep.

An Mi sensed his change, and when she glanced at him, her heart skipped a beat. Had she said something wrong? Wasn't he, after all, a business partner to her?

Just when An Mi thought she was about to be affected by Bai Yi's anger, the color of her eyes gradually became clear, and then her face returned to the previous smile. No, perhaps that smile was somewhat different from the previous one, but for a moment, An Mi couldn't figure out what the difference was.

Bai Yi suppressed the strange feeling in his heart, his eyes fixed on An Mi, his tone revealing a hint of unease, "Yes, partners, we are very good partners!"

Before An Mi could react, Bai Yi immediately changed the subject, "Your publicity just now was quite good. I am very satisfied. Many people know about Shengshi Lieyan now, and even know that the owner of Shengshi Lieyan is the person that the Liu family has been searching for. This move was truly well made."
