Moonlight is like water.

On the carved rosewood chaise lounge, Wu Weiwei's skin, as smooth as jade, appeared even more flawless under the moonlight.

Lu Hanting stroked her smooth, silky skin, secretly marveling at it.

"Veer, how can you be so captivating?"

His gaze fell on her graceful figure, and he looked at her skin that had a faint glow.

I felt that the skin was so white it was inhuman; it was like a rare white silk.

The silky smooth sensation as he touched it with his fingertips stirred his heart.

If he weren't exhausted, he probably could have fought even longer.

Wu Weiwei looked at him with a charming smile and beckoned him with her finger.

"Little fox, you're deliberately provoking me!"

Lu Hanting stepped forward and embraced her.

Soon, two overlapping figures were intertwined, rising and falling erratically.

An hour later.

The man held the panting Wu Weiwei in his arms, thoroughly enjoying himself.

She was covered in sweat.

Lu Hanting, however, held her in his arms with a satisfied expression.

"Are you convinced?"

he asks.

Wu Weiwei chuckled softly.

"Your Highness, I humbly admit defeat."

He pinched her pretty cheek, but inside he felt incredibly guilty.

If he hadn't rested these past few days and had been in good physical condition and had great stamina, he probably wouldn't have been able to satisfy her.

"Tell me! What is your small request?"

The Crown Prince finally steered the conversation back to the main topic.

With a blush spreading across her face, Wu Weiwei said shyly, "Your Highness, you know."

I mortgaged Weiyuan Garden for 10,000 taels of silver to open a shop, but now I've run into a bit of a problem..."

Seeing her bright, expectant eyes looking at him, Lu Hanting immediately understood what she meant by "small request".

So, they've come to him to solve a business problem.

He yanked off the thin blanket covering her and grabbed her.

"How many?"

Wu Weiwei gestured with two fingers to him.

"two thousand?"

Wu Weiwei shook her head.

Lu Hanting pinched her slender waist, "Little woman, don't tell me it's twenty thousand?"

Wu Weiwei blinked her adorable, large eyes and nodded at him.

Upon hearing this number, the crown prince immediately fell silent.

Twenty thousand taels of silver is no small sum.

He certainly had the money, but he suspected that his Wei'er might have been scammed.

Seeing the young master frown, Wu Weiwei felt conflicted.

Is this a gift, or a reluctance to give?

He's already put in the work, so surely he doesn't want to pay me back?

To be honest, after two battles, she is so exhausted that her whole body aches and she doesn't even have the strength to stand up.

She wouldn't have gone to such lengths to seduce him if it weren't to bewitch him.

Seeing her worried expression, Lu Hanting tightened his grip on her waist.

"What, are you worried I won't keep my promise?"

"Your Highness, please be gentle, Wei'er is in pain."

Tears welled up in Wu Weiwei's eyes; she felt that this man must have done it on purpose.

He just wanted to renege on her payment.

"So you feel pain now? Why didn't you know there would be this consequence when you were seducing me?"

"Your Highness, just tell me whether you'll give it to me or not!"

Wu Weiwei's soft breasts pressed against him, rubbing against him.

"This is Weiwei's first time doing business. If it ends in failure, people will laugh at her."

Especially Prince Min, His Majesty granted me his Yihong Courtyard.

If my shop goes out of business and I can't make a living, who knows how he'll laugh at me behind my back...

Lu Hanting felt the two soft mounds in front of her and said helplessly:

"Fine, you've even used your honey trap, how could I refuse?"

Seeing that he had agreed, Wu Weiwei happily said:

"I knew the young master loved Wei'er the most, thank you, young master!"

Wu Weiwei gave him a passionate kiss.

Seeing the little woman's joyful energy, Lu Hanting thought of Qiu Xinyuan and He Yuyan's stubborn and proud little faces.

He suddenly had an idea.

"Wei'er, I can have Steward Fu give you the 20,000 taels of silver tomorrow, but I have one condition?"

Wu Weiwei looked at his solemn expression and was slightly surprised.

The prince used to be very generous when he gave her money, and he never made any demands on her.

Her lowered eyes flickered slightly before she looked up.

"Your Highness, please speak..."

Looking at Wu Weiwei's innocent and beautiful smile, Lu Hanting's expression immediately became somewhat unnatural.

But just thinking about Yanran's pale and haggard face made him feel unbearable.

"Wei'er, I heard that your Wei Garden Pharmacy is short of a doctor?"

"How about we appoint Yan'er as the head doctor of the pharmacy?"

If Yan'er had something to do, she probably wouldn't be so gloomy all day long.

Instead of finding her a shop to open a clinic, it would be better to find her a job in Weiyuan.

He remembered her saying that doctors should take saving lives and healing the wounded as their duty.

He can be a doctor anywhere, and he should be able to do so in Weiyuan as well.

With both women under his watchful eye, he felt at ease.

Hearing the prince's words, Wu Weiwei smiled brightly.

"Of course."

A bright smile gently bloomed on Wu Weiwei's lips, like a poppy in full bloom.

Her bright red lips, as vibrant as flower petals, were slightly curved upwards, exuding a natural charm.

A blush spread across her cheeks, making her look both alluring and breathtaking.

But only she knew in her heart that the blush on her face was not from shyness, but from anger.

Only those who truly know her understand that her smile is most captivating when she is most excited.

Lu Hanting heard her say in an extremely calm tone, "Everything I have now was given to me by the Crown Prince."

"If Sister He is willing, Wei'er is willing to hand over half of the management rights of Wei Garden Pharmacy to her..."

A secluded courtyard in the Marquis's residence.

"Xiaolan, has he agreed to all the requests I made?"

The maidservant replied respectfully, "Master, he said there's no problem, he just told you to wait and watch the show."

"Okay, you did a great job."

Once I get the goods, I promise I won't treat you unfairly.

"Thank you, Master."

The next morning.

Wu Weiwei opened her eyes and found that the person next to her was no longer there.

Wanqiu heard Wu Weiwei getting up inside. She saw Wu Weiwei lift the bed curtains and say, "Master, it's time for you to get up."

Last night, my aunt was worried that she wouldn't be able to get up, so she asked me to wake her up at a certain time.

There are still many thorny matters at Wei Garden that need to be dealt with by Auntie today.

"Ah."

Wu Weiwei sat up, and Lingfu handed her a half-dry handkerchief.

After rinsing her mouth, she sat down at the dressing table and let Wanqiu do her makeup.

“Aunt, the young master is so ungrateful to you.”

"Look at the dark circles under your eyes, you must not have slept much last night..."

Wanqiu said with heartache.

"It's nothing. I'll come back and get a good night's sleep after I finish my business."

He earned 20,000 taels of silver from the prince after just one night of hard work.

To be honest, she made a fortune on this deal.

Wanqiu's fingers moved nimbly, and in no time she had styled her hair into a beautiful bun.

"Let's use this one today!"

Looking at the ordinary cloud-shaped hairpin with flowers and gold ornaments in Wanqiu's hand.

Wu Weiwei took out the gilded, cloisonné, kingfisher feather inlay, and beaded phoenix hairpin that the prince had given her from the enamel-inlaid gold box.

Wanqiu held the hairpin and paused for a moment, lost in thought.

She secretly glanced at her aunt in the mirror, wondering why her aunt had decided to wear this hair ornament today.

However, she didn't ask any questions in the end and silently put the cord on for Wu Weiwei.

After breakfast.

Wu Weiwei, accompanied by her maid, walked towards the main gate of the Marquis's mansion.

Today she was going to see that medicine merchant surnamed Wen, so she ordered her carriage to wait at the main gate early in the morning.

Unfortunately, just as she stepped out of the courtyard, she bumped into He Yuyan, who was walking gracefully toward her.

"Aunt Wu, please wait a moment!"
