Chapter 901 - Chapter 901 901

Chapter 901: 901 Chapter 901: 901 As the first rays of dawn entered the room,

Chan’er’s eyelashes quivered lightly, and she slowly opened her eyes.

The first thing that came into her sight was still Xue An, lying on the bed and sleeping soundly.

She saw him lying on his back, his breaths materializing into soft snores, evidently in a deep sleep.

Chan’er watched him blankly, suddenly feeling a piercing pain in her heart.

So it’s still like this, huh?

The miracle she had hoped for had not occurred.

It turns out… the master really doesn’t want me anymore!

With this thought, Chan’er held back her tears and got out of bed as quietly as she could.

She first brewed a cup of hot tea and placed it on the table beside the bed.

Because the master had a habit of drinking a hot cup of tea after waking up.

While brewing the tea, Chan’er’s tears fell several times, thinking this might be the last cup of tea she would make for the master.

Then she intended to fetch a basin of water for washing faces.

But just then, a rapid knocking at the door suddenly rose, followed by the inn’s shopkeeper Yang Zelin’s shout.

“Master Xue, Miss Chan’er, are you awake yet?”

Although the words were polite, the smugness in his voice nearly spilled out.

Chan’er trembled and her complexion turned pale as paper in an instant.

It has finally come!

Despair filled Chan’er’s heart.

But at that moment, a lazy voice came from behind her.

“Chan’er, go open the door!”

Chan’er’s spirits trembled and she turned to look, only to realize that Xue An had woken up at some point and was now sitting on the edge of the bed, yawning.

“Master…”

Xue An stretched and gave her a slight smile, “Go on!”

“Oh!”

Chan’er hung her head, dragging her legs as heavy as if they were filled with lead, and shuffled over to the door.

To her, the plain wooden door seemed incredibly heavy at that moment.

And opening it would mean that everything would become irretrievable.

So, holding onto her last sliver of hope, she turned to look at Xue An, only to find the master was now sipping his tea, head lowered.

Feeling a wave of sorrow, Chan’er had no choice but to tremble as she opened the door.

As expected, standing outside was none other than the innkeeper Yang Zelin.

This usually harsh and critical store manager now wore a broad smile on his face.

Especially when his eyes caught sight of Chan’er with tear-streaked cheeks, they lit up even more.

Such a beauty.

And this was still her unripe look, if he waited a few more years for her to fully mature, just imagine the charm she would have.

With this thought, Yang Zelin felt a twinge of envy for the Chen Family’s young master’s luck.

If not for the young master Chen’s interference, he would have never let this girl slip away, no matter what.

With plans swirling in his mind, Yang Zelin nonetheless faced her with a beaming smile, “Miss Chan’er, is Master Xue up?”

Chan’er nodded slightly.

At that moment, Xue An’s indifferent voice came from the room, “Come in!”

Yang Zelin chuckled and then walked into the room.

“Master Xue, did you have a good rest last night?” Yang Zelin asked cheerfully, but his eyes were roving around restlessly.

“Fine!” Xue An answered without changing his expression, continuing to slowly drink his tea.

The atmosphere in the room suddenly became somewhat tense.

Yang Zelin sneered inwardly, even at this point, are you still playing dumb?

Therefore, with a nonchalant salute of his hand, he said, “Since that’s the case, then I’ll get straight to the point. Does Master Xue remember the words spoken yesterday?”

Ye Xiaochan, who stood to the side with her hands hanging down, trembled all over, and her head involuntarily sank even lower.

Xue An gave a faint smile, “Of course I remember!”

“Very well! Now that the sun has risen in the east, please reward me with the twenty taels of silver, Young Master Xue!”

Xue An did not make a sound but continued to drink his tea.

Until Yang Zelin had already shown signs of impatience.

Only then did Xue An place his teacup on the table and said indifferently, “Shopkeeper Yang, are you certain you want these twenty taels of silver?”

Yang Zelin was taken aback.

What does he mean?

Is he trying to renege on the debt?

Heh, perhaps it’s the so-called scholar’s pride causing trouble, he estimated!

Thinking this, Yang Zelin’s face revealed a trace of a cold smirk, “Young Master Xue, your words are as funny as a joke. Yesterday, you personally said that you would pay at sunrise, or else you would hand over Miss Chan’er to me! What, are you thinking of reneging now?”

Xue An looked at Yang Zelin with a smile that was not quite a smile, shook his head, and said, “Of course I won’t renege, I just fear that once Shopkeeper Yang accepts these twenty taels of silver, you will have to obediently return it very soon!”

These words left Yang Zelin speechless with laughter, full of disdain in his heart.

Such a penniless scholar, still puffing up at this moment.

“Heh, Young Master Xue, you really have a way with jokes. Let’s be clear, I know you have no money! To gather twenty taels of silver in one night’s time, let alone you, even a businessman like me would find it difficult! So there’s no need to be embarrassed, just hand over Miss Chan’er to me, and I might even give you some travel expenses to help you on your way to the capital for the examinations. How about that?”

As the two conversed, Chan’er stood by the side, her tears dripping without stop.

When she heard Yang Zelin’s words, she trembled violently, her vision darkened, filled with despair.

Because she felt that it was over!

Everything had ended!

She was about to leave her young master and become the plaything of these villains.

Thinking this, Chan’er had already been crying her eyes out, then she turned around and knelt down before Xue An.

“Young Master, I know it’s very hard for you… To sell me off… Chan’er has no complaints!”

As she spoke, Chan’er had already turned into a teary mess.

But just then, a warm hand gently landed on her shoulder, followed by the light laughter of Xue An.

“What nonsense are you talking about? Who said I was going to sell you off?”

Um?

Chan’er was startled, her face awash with tears as she looked up at Xue An.

Yang Zelin’s expression darkened, “Young Master Xue, you…”

He wanted to accuse him of going back on his word.

But at that moment, Xue An casually took out a bar of silver from his bosom and threw it over, then said indifferently.

“Here’s the silver you wanted!”

Yang Zelin was dumbfounded.

Chan’er was likewise stunned.

Then Yang Zelin, his face full of disbelief, picked up the silver and inspected it closely, even biting it several times with his teeth.

But no matter how he looked at it, it was indeed a genuine bar of silver.

And just by hefting it in his hand, he could tell that it was definitely much more than twenty taels.

“This…” Yang Zelin was dumbstruck.

In no way had he expected that Xue An could actually produce twenty taels of silver.

Chan’er looked back and forth between Yang Zelin and Xue An, her face full of disbelief.

She was the one who knew best about the financial situation of master and servant.

Not to mention twenty taels, they couldn’t even produce two copper coins.

And last night the young master had slept soundly in bed all night; could this silver have fallen from the sky?

At that moment, Xue An stood with his hands behind his back and said indifferently, “There’s the silver you wanted, Shopkeeper Yang, please leave!”

Xue An was a very polite person; even when telling someone to leave, he added a please.

Yang Zelin’s face turned from green to white, and although he was full of suspicion and rage, he was intimidated by Xue An’s dismissive attitude and could only slink away from the room, crestfallen.
