gs for Xiao Yuge And as for Brother Tingxuan, he and Xiao Yuge not only have a large age gap but also rarely interacted. How could Brother Tingxuan suddenly become so enamored with her"Hua Qinghe didn..."Gē’er told me to give up on you, but I won't. I fell for you at first sight. Today, I disregard shame and confess my feelings to you. You can reject me, but you can't stop me from liking you. I believe that one day, you will accept me."

Alan, you're a good girl. You shouldn't waste your precious time on me. You'll find someone better than me. Chu Tianqi thought to himself, if Ge'er knew this, what would she think of him

"Brother Chu, I remember Ge'er once told me that you are the best brother in the world. You already are the best, where could I find a better one" Although being rejected was expected, Xu Loulan still felt a little sad.

"Really, that's what Geer said" Chu Tianqi only remembered a certain sentence she said, about Geer.

"Hmm," Xu Loulan nodded, lowering her eyes to hide the bitterness in them: "Ge'er said that from childhood to adulthood, the person Chu Big Brother liked had always been Miss Xiao, never changing. But, Miss Xiao is about to marry the Crown Prince. Why can't Chu Big Brother let go of her"

"Ge'er told you that the person I've always liked is Fu'er" Chu Tianqi was shocked. Could it be that Ge'er had misunderstood him all along No wonder she always avoided his topic, so she had misunderstood him too.

"Ge'er also said that from childhood to adulthood, everyone around her liked Xiao Big Miss. She was very sad and wanted to leave the Xiao family and everything here. Unexpectedly, it came true."

“I see, that’s what Ge’er was thinking.” Chu Tianqi heard this and immediately turned to leave: “Miss Alan, you are a kind girl, but… I am not suitable for you! You deserve someone better! Goodbye!” After saying that, he turned and ran towards Ruyi Pavilion. He had to explain to Ge’er that he didn’t love Fu’er; he loved her!

Xu Loulan watched his departing figure, then glanced at the money pouch in her hand, one she had carefully chosen for him. Tears streamed down her face, filled with sorrow and despair... But later, she wiped away her tears and said with a determined look, "I will not give up!"

Chu Tianqi arrived at Ruyifang and learned that Xiao Yuge had been invited out by the Three Young Masters of the Capital. Those three young masters were notorious playboy, he was anxious and searched for them everywhere.

At this moment, Xiao Yuge and the three young masters of the capital were in a wine shop, listening to a play while eating and drinking. Because of the dung incident, Fan Deng seemed a little downcast. Besides, he still owed a lot of money to the gambling house, so he drank sullenly without saying a word.

Ms. Xiao, I never realized before that you were so beautiful.

"Indeed, everyone says Princess Guonangan is the most beautiful woman in the capital. I think the title of 'First Beauty of the Capital' should go to Miss Xiao."

Both young masters Feng and Zhao showered Xiao Yuge with compliments.

Xiao Yuge smiled: "Mr. Feng and Mr. Zhao are too kind. How can I compare to Princess Guo'an As for the three young masters, your reputation as the Three Young Masters of Beijing is well-known."

Raising an eyebrow and glancing at Fan Deng who was sipping his wine sullenly, she asked, "Fan Deng brother, what's wrong with you today You seem so downcast. Is something bothering you"But inside, she was desperately trying to hold back her laughter because the moment she saw him, she thought of his face full of nonsense, which made her feel nauseous.

Humph! Wasn't one lesson enough She dared to come again. How could she possibly repay them for their eagerness to send their heads her way without giving them a taste of their own medicine

“Nothing...” After pouring himself another cup of wine, Fan Deng muttered in response, but he dared not look at Xiao Yuge. Since that day’s events, he felt very ashamed.

Xiao Yu Ge secretly sneered, and stopped asking. At this time, there seemed to be something happening downstairs, it sounded very lively.

"What happened there Let's go take a look."

The three young masters of the capital were known for loving all things lively and bustling. They loved to join in on the excitement, as well as create it themselves.

After the man walked away, I realized he was selling jade. He said he had three heirloom jade pieces and needed money urgently because his elderly parents were seriously ill. He wanted to sell two of them, but people offered too low a price. He wasn't willing to sell because he thought each heirloom jade piece was worth at least ten thousand taels. Now that he urgently needed money, he was only willing to sell for three thousand taels.

Three thousand taels is not a small sum, and few people can come up with that amount of money at once.

“At a glance, this is top-notch jade, each piece worth thousands of taels. It’s a pity that I had to leave in a hurry and didn’t bring that much silver with me.” A gentleman dressed as an official sighed softly, his face full of regret.

His attendants whispered hurriedly, "My lord, I've heard that every place has a money-lending firm called 'Ziqian'. We could borrow from them first and, after making the deal, repay the loan with interest. The earlier we go, the less interest we'll pay."

“Is there such a place Then what are we waiting for Go there quickly! Buy these two jade pieces, and I'll deliver them to Master Quan tomorrow. He loves collecting jade so much, he's sure to pay a high price. By then, my lord will be able to make a clean profit of several tens of thousands taels. This is a win-win situation.” Upon hearing this, the magistrate was overjoyed.

But their conversation was overheard by the three young masters of the capital. The three looked at each other, and immediately had an idea. After exchanging a glance, they walked towards the upstairs building, because they knew that the owner of the Qianqian Bank was upstairs.

"Brothers, did you all hear what that man just said" Fan Deng whispered, leaning in close.

"Listen closely, this is a big opportunity, such a good thing would be a pity if it was taken by an outsider," Young Master Feng immediately agreed.

"The jade is of good quality. As you know, my uncle's family deals in jade. I have seen all kinds of jade since I was a child. That piece is indeed high-grade jade."

Young Master Zhao lazily said, "So what, we don't have any money..."

"Isn't Tang the boss of that pawn shop up there"

When Zhao Gongzi heard this, he immediately sobered up: "You're crazy! You dare to ask him for money If our parents found out, you wouldn't live to see tomorrow."

“Haven’t you heard what the magistrate said These jade pieces are worth thousands of taels. Just think, if we buy those three jade pieces and then resell them, we’ll have 30,000 taels! At that time, not only will we be able to pay off the debt to the gambling house, but our friends will also be able to live comfortably for a while.”

"But, what if..." Zhao Gongzi still hesitated.

"Alright, Lao Zhao, are you still my brother If you're my brother, let's go together. What are we afraid of It's just a mere 3,000 taels. If this works out, we'll both be rich!"

Young Master Feng and Fan Deng grabbed Young Master Zhao and dashed up the stairs.ou... 。"Though Qian Si Chen was deeply troubled, he wasn't a fool. He knew he had to stay here and couldn't leave. He absolutely couldn't give the people of Lei Ting Pavilion another chance to attack...
