Chapter 44: Chapter 44 Young Master? Rich Second Generation?

The day for the spicy cabbage delivery arrived in the blink of an eye! Xiaoxiao and Yang Dong set out early in the morning.

As soon as Xiao’er saw Xiaoxiao, he immediately came up to greet her.

"Miss, you’re here at last! Our shopkeeper has been anxiously waiting for you!"

"Quickly take me to see Shopkeeper Wang!"

In fact, Xiaoxiao was also very anxious, but making spicy cabbage takes time, and she was afraid she wouldn’t do it well, so she hadn’t prepared much in advance.

"Miss Zhong, let’s go to the private room; our Young Master would like to speak with you personally!"

No sooner had Shopkeeper Wang appeared than he invited Xiaoxiao to a private room, with Yang Dong following along.

"Young man, our Young Master wishes to speak with Miss Zhong alone, would you mind waiting over here for a moment?"

Shopkeeper Wang, upon seeing Yang Dong also come along, immediately stopped him; the Young Master had specifically instructed that no outsiders be present.

"This..." Yang Dong glanced at Xiaoxiao, clearly concerned, yet also looking to her for guidance.

"Fourth brother, it’s okay, don’t worry, I’ll be right back."

Yang Dong always listened to Xiaoxiao, so he didn’t follow; instead, he was arranged to wait in another private room.

Xiaoxiao was arranged in the private room, which was empty of the Young Master that Shopkeeper Wang had mentioned.

"Miss, please wait here for a moment. We have sent someone to fetch our Young Master, and he will arrive shortly!"

Xiaoxiao didn’t mind, since he was, after all, a rich second generation; a bit of posturing was normal, and she was not inexperienced in dealing with such situations. For the sake of her dreams of wealth, waiting a bit was no big deal.

But as she waited, time began to drag on, and Xiaoxiao actually fell asleep.

Upon entering, Chu Lian was greeted by this scene.

The girl’s hands rested on the table; her head tilted, pressing against her arms, and her black hair cascaded like clouds over her shoulders. Her eyebrows were furrowed, indicating her fatigue even in sleep; just how tired must she have been?

Seeing her sleep so peacefully, like a quiet princess, Chu Lian couldn’t bear to wake her.

Just as Shopkeeper Wang was about to make a noise,

"Shh!" Chu Lian quickly gestured for him to be silent, then waved his hand to signal Shopkeeper Wang to step back.

Chu Lian moved into the private room, found a chair to sit down, and just quietly watched Xiaoxiao, quietly, quietly waiting for the princess to wake up!

"I’m rich!"

The sudden murmuring startled Chu Lian; it turned out the girl was talking in her sleep!

Rich? Dreaming about becoming rich? Just how much does this girl love money?

If he hadn’t known that this girl worked hard for her money and was not greedy or corrupt, he might have misunderstood her.

Although the girl did not have a nation-toppling beauty, she possessed a talent rare amongst women, which was adorable, indeed! Chu Lian thought to himself, his thoughts drifting further and further away, but he didn’t expect Xiaoxiao to wake up at this moment.

Xiaoxiao slowly opened her eyes and saw Chu Lian sitting there, staring at her.

She immediately jumped up from her seat.

"You voyeur!"

"..." Voyeur?

After rising, Xiaoxiao began pummeling Chu Lian.

While hitting him she said, "You peeping Tom, how dare you spy on me sleeping! How dare you peek!"

"Miss, please be merciful, be merciful. I am the Young Master of this establishment!"

Chu Lian was on the verge of tears; he had hoped to repair his image as a gentleman, but here he was, getting beaten up again, feeling emotionally hurt!

"..."

Xiaoxiao felt something was off, oh right, she was here waiting for someone, waiting for that rich second generation. Wait a minute! Young Master? Rich second generation?

"Eh!"
