Chapter 185 Let Her Go

Blinking her eyes, Ning Qingyue waited expectantly for Lou Jingyu to speak, only to see him reach out to pick up the 50 taels of silver under her gaze, and put it into her purse like no one else was there.

Then he said: "There is a problem with the waiter in the shop. I originally planned to ask someone to investigate him. I will keep the 100 taels for now. If he has no problems, I will give him the money."

Ning Qingyue was happy that Lou Jingyu didn't pursue this matter, but when she thought about the meaning of his words, she suddenly became restless.

"What? There's something wrong with Xiao Er? What's the problem? Why didn't you say it just now?"

While speaking, she kept her gaze fixed on Lou Jingyu's purse, as if she was planning to poke holes in his purse, so that a little more money would come out.

Lou Jingyu ignored her gaze and said, "When he bumped into you, you fell, but he only took half a step back. Also, he was surprised that this king didn't meet you at the Zhuangyuan Building before he went to Lincheng. Over him, besides, his accent is not from the capital."

"..."

After listening to what he said again and again, Ning Qingyue pondered in her heart for a while before she figured out that what he meant was that the shop waiter collided with her, and she fell. None of the trays fell out.

In addition, the waiter of the shop happened to come to Zhuangyuan Building in the past few days, which coincided with the time when the flower pickers arrived in the capital.

Furthermore, the waiter in this store is not from the capital, so the suspicion is even greater.

Thinking of this, Ning Qingyue stared at Lou Jingyu's purse with brighter eyes, "Then if the waiter in the shop is a flower picker, won't I be able to pay the settling allowance I'm giving you?"

50 taels of silver was enough for her to eat and drink several times.

"Did it fall into the silver pocket?" Lou Jingyu said sarcastically, and then said: "If the waiter in the shop is a flower picker, the 50 taels of silver will be regarded as the taels of the loss king's table."

Ning Qingyue: "..."

Don't let anyone stop her, she's going to kill this villain.

She gritted her teeth and said with a smile: "My lord, isn't it a bit unreasonable for you to do this? If it spreads out, people may say that you are a greedy person, right?"

Lou Jingyu raised his eyebrows, "There are only you and me here, who will spread the word?"

"..."

You are cruel.

Ning Qingyue was speechless, she knew that she would never be able to win against Lou Jingyu.

Not wanting to talk to him anymore, she closed her eyes, sat obediently, and began to mourn for the 100 taels of silver.

The carriage traveled for a while, and soon arrived at the street near Hou's Mansion. Ning Qingyue suddenly smelled a sweet smell, and her eyes, which were originally closed, suddenly opened.

The next moment, she raised the car curtain and said, "Mu Yi, stop the car."

Mu Yi, who was driving the carriage, heard the sound, and hastily parked the carriage on the side of the road. Before he could ask Ning Qingyue why, he saw a figure, and jumped out of the carriage with a bang.

When Mu regained consciousness, he saw Ning Qingyue's chubby figure running to the door of a pastry shop on the opposite side of the road, standing behind the crowd of pastry buyers, forming a long queue.

Mu Yi was very speechless, he called into the carriage, "My lord?"

As soon as the voice fell, Lou Jingyu said in the carriage, "Let her go."

Obviously the tone was the same as usual, but Mu Yi could hear a whiff of pampering.
