Rebirth: Pampered by the Lord

Chapter 2378: Chapter 2378: Sneaky

"Princess Consort, you really helped out just now, this meal is on me," the shopkeeper said with a beaming smile.

Even without the scene with Madam Luo, the Princess Consort of War Prince visiting the Drunken Sky Building would also be free of charge. After all, in the Capital, there are only a few notable figures, and the War Prince ranks first among them.

As Situtu Xueer is the Princess Consort of War Prince, naturally, she is one of the people he would want to flatter.

"Well... if that’s okay! These are all rare ingredients, and running a tavern is a business, wouldn’t it be a loss?"

"No, no, they’re just some cheap materials, little cost in Silver, Princess Consort doesn’t need to worry about it." The shopkeeper’s face was full of smiles, not just flattery, but more importantly, a few days ago, Xuexue provided a formula to cure the magical ailment, saving all those afflicted in the Capital, including his family.

Without Xuexue’s formula, he might have already been ruined with no heart to manage business here. So, inviting Xuexue for a meal really means nothing.

The original cost of those dishes just now was how much in Silver?

This excuse might work on someone else.

Xuexue, being a businesswoman, naturally saw its value at a glance.

However, since the shopkeeper insisted on waiving the bill, Xuexue didn’t argue. Such a large Drunken Sky Building, treating her to a meal, indeed is a trivial matter, not affecting the root.

Xuexue: "In that case, I thank the shopkeeper."

Shopkeeper: "You’re welcome to visit again, Princess Consort of War Prince."

Xuexue jokingly said, "Alright! Until I eat the Drunken Sky Building out of business, this Princess Consort won’t give up, haha..."

"Princess Consort is joking."

The shopkeeper escorted them all the way to the main gate, watching until their carriage disappeared, then returned to the tavern.

Today was so thrilling, it almost scared him to death. If it weren’t for the Princess Consort of War Prince’s appearance, the Drunken Sky Building might have already faced a lawsuit. The shopkeeper secretly wiped the sweat from his forehead; being the shopkeeper was too difficult.

Escaping a catastrophe today was sheer luck; must go back quickly, kill a chicken and pray, thanking Heaven for its care.

Immediately, the shopkeeper really left the tavern unattended, went home to kill a chicken and offer his prayers.

"Da da da...!"

As the carriage neared the War Prince’s Mansion, suddenly, a Weirdo appeared out of nowhere, leaping onto the top of the carriage, causing the whole carriage to shake.

"Who’s there?"

Xuexue clanged, drawing the treasured sword from her waist, and stabbed downwards at the carriage top fiercely.

"Whoa, you little brat, are you trying to kill your master?" Before the words were fully uttered, a silhouette flashed, and the carriage cabin had one more person.

It was the Weirdo who had just disappeared from the tavern.

"Senior, why are you here?" Xuexue was extremely surprised. Wasn’t he going to find the two fat and thin guys?

The Weirdo, lying on the carriage floor, looked up and said to Xuexue, "Master came to tell you, those two lads, Master has found them. They live in a house about fifty meters from the War Prince’s Mansion. Just now, they circled the War Prince’s Mansion several times, seems there’s something inside they’re interested in. Girl, you must be careful. Master still counts on your miracle medicine, you can’t have any accidents."

Upon hearing this, Xuexue paused for a moment: "Living not far from the War Prince’s Mansion?"

The Weirdo nodded and said, "Yes, they look stealthy, definitely up to no good."

Xuexue: "Alright, got it! Thank you for the trouble, Senior."

Weirdo: "What trouble, Master has an agenda too."

If not for the miracle medicine, he wouldn’t willingly help Xuexue.
