Rebirth of the Charming Girl in Space
Chapter 220:
So Overbearing?
"Is it that simple?"
"Girl, it's not that simple. If my old madam doesn't like it or, after seeing it, gets angrier, I'll have to ask you about it."
Ask her?
Did he have to be this domineering?
Helplessly, Murong Lingran had no choice but to start quickly searching the street. The other three followed behind her.
Considering that it could be something to eat, play with, or use, the options were vast.
Murong Lingran initially thought she would find something suitable quickly, but after walking for half an hour and seeing fewer people on the street, all the items she suggested were vetoed by Helian Rongjiu.
As it approached the time to return, Murong Lingran thought for a while and suddenly asked Helian Rongjiu a question in a low voice.
Helian Rongjiu nodded, "Yes, the old madam indeed loves it."
Murong Lingran revealed a mysterious smile. Since she liked it, things became more straightforward. "Ninth Young Master, I've thought of something suitable. However, it's too late to make it now, and the process would take too long. Tomorrow, after noon, wait for me at the entrance of Jishi Hall, and I'll give you the item. How about that?"

Seeing her mysterious demeanor, Helian Rongjiu raised an eyebrow, "Are you making up an excuse to get away early and return home? Is that what this is about?"
Murong Lingran smiled awkwardly, "Ninth Young Master, you're overthinking. I still have to earn silver from you and Lord Wei every day. How could I possibly offend you?"
After a moment of consideration, Helian Rongjiu agreed, "Fine, I'll let you go for today."
Murong Lingran grinned, "Thank you, Ninth Young Master. I'll take my leave now." With that, she happily bounced away.
Watching her joyful figure, Helian Rongjiu furrowed his brow and said to Wei Jingxuan, "Jingxuan, why do I feel like she finally managed to get rid of us? Could she be trying to stall for time?"
Wei Jingxuan calmly responded, "No, she's not that kind of person."
Wei Yushan added, "Big brother is right. She wouldn't dare deceive you." Unless she didn't care about her life.
Helian Rongjiu nodded; he might have been overthinking it.
The room in Jishi Hall was small, and the bed was even smaller. Fortunately, there was a couch that could accommodate two people, but there was no place for Murong Lingran to sleep.
However, the guesthouse was right next door. Murong Zhe took his daughter there and arranged for her to have a room for the night while he stayed with his wife.
Originally, as a physician, Murong Zhe could have prescribed some medicine and taken his wife home for recuperation, but the people from Xiuzhuang specifically told them that recovery could only happen within Jishi Hall, and they were not allowed to step outside. They were afraid someone might run away, or worse, the family of Mrs. Xiao might hide her.
Murong Lingran locked the door of the guesthouse and entered her space, retrieving all the necessary items.
When the night was quiet, she gave some silver to the innkeeper, borrowed the inn's kitchen, and secretly prepared what she had promised to Helian Rongjiu for the next day. After completing the task, she stashed the items back into her space.
The next day, at the agreed-upon time, Helian Rongjiu's carriage stopped under a tree near Jishi Hall.
"Here you go!" Murong Lingran handed a food box to him after getting on the carriage.
