Chapter 961: The Straightforward Yun Chujiu

The red-dressed girl naturally did not dare to embarrass the Palace Mistress. She snorted coldly and said, “Shopkeeper Qi, if that’s the case, then I won’t lower myself to her level. If there’s a next time, Hmph!”

The red-dressed girl glared fiercely at Yun Chujiu before leaving under the escort of the crowd.

The waiter was dumbfounded. He knew that not only had he been beaten up for nothing, he had also lost his job!

Sure enough, shopkeeper Qi looked at him. “Go to the accounting room to settle your wages. You are fired.”

The waiter did not dare to say a word. He slipped into the room to collect his wages and then left!

Shopkeeper Qi bowed in neither servile nor overbearing manner. “Ninth Miss, the three young masters, please come in.”

Yun Chujiu nodded. “Thank you!”

The four followed shopkeeper Qi into the Long Wind Inn. The interior decoration was very luxurious. Shopkeeper Qi brought the four of them to a room in the backyard, after getting someone to serve them tea, he said, “Ninth Miss, commander An Feng sent me a message an hour ago. I also reported to the Palace Mistress. Your identity was also made up by the Palace Mistress.”

Yun Chujiu pursed her lips in her heart. This old man kept referring to me, yet he did not mention me as his subordinate. He even specially told her to report to the Palace Mistress. An identity made up by the Palace Mistress? This was telling her that he worked for the Palace Mistress’s!

“Shopkeeper Qi, regardless of whether you are brother Beiming’s man or the Palace Mistress’s man, you are still a member of the Hall of Longevity. A fellow like Lucky from before is really… Tsk, lowering the reputation of the Long Wind Inn!” Yun Chujiu said with a smile.

Shopkeeper Qi had never thought that Yun Chujiu would lay things out like that immediately. All the girls he met had to think twice before speaking a single sentence. How could she be so straightforward? For a moment, he was a little stunned.

“What? Shopkeeper Qi doesn’t agree with me?” Yun Chujiu asked faintly when she saw Shopkeeper Qi’s stunned expression.

Shopkeeper Qi finally regained his senses. “Ninth Miss is right. That kind of worker is indeed useless. He should have been fired a long time ago.”

“Hmm, it seems that you agree with my way of doing things. Report what happened today to the Palace Mistress truthfully. Then tell her that the reward for me should be decided first. Give it to me together with the red packet when we meet next time.”

Shopkeeper Qi’s face was filled with confusion and bewilderment. I heard that the Palace Mistress seemed to dislike this Ninth Young Miss in the voice transmission talisman today. Why did it sound like this Ninth Young Miss had a good relationship with the Palace Mistress? Otherwise, why would she still talk about rewards and red packets? Forget it. No matter what, this Ninth Young Miss was also the beloved one of His Excellency. It was better not to offend her.

“Ninth Miss, commander An Feng will be here tonight. I will bring the four of you to the upper room to rest first.”

Shopkeeper Qi arranged for the four of them to be escorted to the four upper rooms before leaving.

Yun Chujiu entered her room and looked around. The room was decorated lavishly. What surprised her the most was that each room was equipped with an isolation array and a protective array. The guests only needed to fill it with Spirit Stones to activate it. It was very convenient.

After Yun Chujiu washed up, she fell asleep on the bed. She slept until the sun went down before she left the room.

Shopkeeper Qi saw Yun Chujiu come out and quickly went forward to inform her, “Miss Jiu, commander An Feng is here. Please come with me.”

Yun Chujiu called Feng Ming and the other two to follow shopkeeper Qi into a room. An Feng was already waiting there. An Feng respectfully bowed to Yun Chujiu. After Yun Chujiu sat down, An Feng did not sit down but stood up to say his piece.
