The Daily Life of a Concubine's Daughter After Transmigrating

Xue Lian placed Xiao Yao's hand in Li Anqi's, her eyes filled with earnestness.

"Your Majesty, please take good care of Xiao Yao... Xue Lian has nothing to give but endless gratitude."

Li Anqi nodded, took Xiaoyao's hand, and said to Xuelian, "Take care of yourself. If you ever change your mind, come find me anytime."

Xue Lian froze, staring blankly at Li Anqi, unable to hold back two lines of tears, and silently nodded.

"Alright, alright, there's nothing more to see, everyone go back!" Xiao Shunzi raised his hand and loudly dispersed the crowd.

Li Anqi and Xiao Yao boarded a sedan chair and continued their journey towards Xiuyunzhai.

Xiao Yao cried and cried, perhaps because she was too tired, and fell asleep leaning on Li Anqi's shoulder.

Xiao Shunzi seemed somewhat reluctant and puzzled, and couldn't help but lean closer to the window, whispering to Li Anqi:

"Your Majesty, Xue Lian is such a good girl, why don't we redeem her and save her?"

Xiaoyao, who was fast asleep, trembled slightly twice with her eyelashes.

“A person who has accepted her fate will eventually return to where she started, no matter how much you try to pull her back,” Li Anqi replied quietly. “If she comes to terms with it, she will naturally come to me.”

Xiao Shunzi nodded thoughtfully.

Xiao Yao opened her eyes and stared intently at Li Anqi.

Feeling the gazes around him, Li Anqi looked at Xiao Yao, whose eyes were red and swollen.

"Your Majesty, Xiao Yao refuses to accept her fate!"

"Xiaoyao doesn't want to be a dancer, much less sell herself!"

"Xiaoyao dreams of being like the Empress, a capable person who can manage a restaurant perfectly!"

During the time Li Anqi managed Haoyue Lanting, Xiaoyao held Li Anqi in the highest esteem.

Li Anqi's insights, courage, and methods all seemed to open up a new world for Xiaoyao.

She was no longer content to be just an ordinary dancer, and she could no longer accept selling her body and her smiles!

She wants to become a strong and capable businesswoman like Li Anqi.

Li Anqi seemed to be infected by Xiaoyao's energy and hope, his voice trembling slightly: "Okay!"

When the sedan chair arrived at Shanji Cloth Shop on Hongrong Street, Li Anqi ordered it to stop.

The factory behind Dan Kee Cloth Shop has been rebuilt and resumed its former operations.

Shan Xingwen is checking the goods at the fabric shop.

Upon Li Anqi's arrival, Manager Yang led a group of servants to the door to greet him.

"Welcome, Chess Goddess!"

Shopkeeper Yang laughed heartily.

Since he learned that Li Anqi was the founder of Shan Kee Velvet Flower, his admiration for Li Anqi has grown even more.

A smile appeared on Shan Xingwen's handsome face as he bowed to Li Anqi: "Your Majesty, what brings you here today?"

Li Anqi led Xiao Yao, who was behind him, to Shan Xingwen.

With a gentle smile and dignified demeanor, she said, "I have come here today to offer Young Master Shan a helper."

Xiao Yao was overjoyed, but her expression was not timid. She gracefully squatted down and bowed to Shan Xingwen.

Li Anqi succinctly explained Xiao Yao's experience to Shan Xingwen.

Shan Xingwen nodded slightly:

"What a coincidence, Manager Yang has been worried about not having enough staff lately."

"If Miss Xiaoyao doesn't mind, she might as well stay and learn some management skills from Manager Yang."

Xiao Yao beamed with joy: "Xiao Yao doesn't mind at all! Thank you so much for taking me in, Young Master Shan!"

Xiao Yao and Li Anqi exchanged a glance.

Li Anqi nodded slightly to her.

Xiao Yao smiled as she approached Manager Yang.

"Then I'll have to trouble Manager Yang." After saying that, Li Anqi looked at Shan Xingwen, "I still have to go to Xiuyunzhai, so I won't disturb you any longer."

Shan Xingwen was slightly taken aback: "Your Majesty, why don't you have some tea before you leave?"

Li Anqi glanced briefly at the food box that Zhilan was carrying.

"I made fresh grilled fish for my brother; it might get cold if we wait any longer."

"Thank you for your kindness, Young Master Shan. I will come to bother you again another day."

A hint of envy flashed in Shan Xingwen's eyes as he smiled and nodded, "Young Master Li is truly blessed with good food."

Li Anqi nodded politely, bid farewell to Shan Xingwen and Xiao Yao, and got back into the sedan chair.

Xiuyunzhai was not far from Shanji Cloth Shop, and they arrived in no time.

To Li Anqi's surprise...

A disgusting and repulsive person actually appeared at Xiuyunzhai.
