Lian Bingyu walked into the medicine hall and was very satisfied with the clerk’s respectful attitude. She said arrogantly, “The medicinal pill I refined lacks a Purple Jade Orchid. Bring out all the Purple Jade Orchids in your store for me to see.”

Hearing Lian Bingyu say that she wanted the Purple Jade Orchid, the clerk’s expression changed. He turned his head stiffly and looked at Xue Fanxin, who was counting her change. He said weakly, “Miss Lian, I’m really sorry. The last stalk of the Purple Jade Orchid in our store has been bought by Miss Xue from the Duke’s estate.”

When Xue Fanxin heard the clerk mention her, she raised her head to take a look. After that, she continued to count the money in her hand. Once she made sure that there was no mistake, she took her herbs and intended to leave.

At this moment, someone blocked her way.

“Xue Fanxin, give me that Purple Jade Orchid you bought.” Lian Bingyu did not take Xue Fanxin seriously. Her eyes were filled with obvious disdain, and her tone was commanding.

Xue Fanxin was a person who knew how to judge the situation. She was well aware of her current ability. If she were to clash with Lian Bingyu and form a grudge, the one who would suffer in the end would be her.

But from a different perspective, if she used Lian Bingyu well, she would be a great help to her.

“I just spent five thousand taels on the herbs. If I give them to you, won’t I be at a loss?” Xue Fanxin pretended to be innocent, like a pure girl who did not know anything about the world and tried her best to act stupid.

“I’ll pay 10,000 taels for your Purple Jade Orchid. How about that?” Lian Bingyu had no idea that she had already been duped by the other party. She took out a banknote worth 10,000 taels and handed it to Xue Fanxin.

“Sure, sure. I’ll give you the Purple Jade Orchid.” Xue Fanxin took the banknote excitedly, then placed the herbs on the table. She happily took out the Purple Jade Orchid from inside and handed it to Lian Bingyu with both hands. “This is the Purple Jade Orchid, here you go.”

As Xue Fanxin had given Lian Bingyu enough face, she was in a good mood. She took the orchid and looked at it briefly, feeling satisfied. “Not bad. This is the orchid I was looking for. Thanks.”

Although Lian Bingyu thanked Xue Fanxin, her tone did not contain any gratitude. She was just being perfunctory.

Xue Fanxin could not be bothered with her over such a small matter. She grinned at her and said, “Comparatively, I still think that Miss Lian is better.”

The casual remark caught Lian Bingyu’s attention. “What’s there to compare?”

“Don’t you know? Oh, right, you don’t know. My cousin told me that she’s prettier than you, more talented than you, and more cultured than you. In short, she’s better than you in everything. But today, after seeing you, I think you are better than my cousin.”

“What did you say? Your cousin? Li Yaoyao?” Lian Bingyu’s expression changed dramatically, filling with anger.

Although Li Yaoyao was only a cousin living in the Duke’s estate, she was quite famous in the capital. Especially with her devastatingly beautiful face, who knew how many men she had charmed?

Lian Bingyu naturally knew about someone who was her age and beauty.

She was originally a little jealous of Li Yaoyao’s looks.. Now that she knew that Li Yaoyao was secretly slandering her, how could she not be angry?
