Chapter 545: A Scene In Songhe Inn 3
Tan Xiangdie also came to the capital and had a meeting with Jiang Yeqian about instigating a coup there.
That early morning, he had nothing to do. Thus, he put on an inconspicuous grayish-white robe and sat alone on the cornice some distance away, enjoying the morning sun relaxedly.
Unexpectedly, he witnessed this scene.
When he noticed her, he saw that the girl was already in her white garment—so he did not know that she was previously wearing a maid’s outfit.
Tan Xiangdie was a person who liked to have fun, so he was instantly surprised when he saw that girl in the alley wearing a white garment—even letting her hair down. After taking a second look, he noted that the girl’s waist was very slim, and her legs were quite long! Before he could take another look, she had already changed into an orange robe…
This obscured his view completely.
Tan Xiangdie instantly felt very disappointed.
Immediately after, he saw the girl quickly tuck her hair to the back of her head casually and tie a simple high ponytail. She then fastened it with a silver clasp, looking very neat.
Huh.
This appearance…
Could she be an aristocratic young lady in Capital City who had secretly gone and slept with someone last night, then came back early in the morning and was hiding here to change her clothes?
Tan Xiangdie trembled with excitement thinking of such a possibility.
He opened his eagle eyes wide and carefully analyzed the girl’s face. Tan Xiangdie was stunned for a moment. This face… how could it be so ordinary and inconspicuous?!
However, the garment she was now wearing was from Ziyun Boutique, was it not…?
Could it be that this person who had slept with someone had put on a disguise, and wanted to wait until she returned to her residence to remove it!?
Truly a meticulous person.
He had been worried about being bored at first, but now he was instantly invigorated. As the Head of the Wangyue Administration, he was proficient in disguise and various infiltration skills. He really wanted to find out the identity of this aristocratic young lady under this girl’s disguise who had dared to commit such a bold and shameless act!
It was really very exciting.
Then, later, he could expose her… If she was a beautiful girl, he would ask her to accompany him for one night. No, it was fine even if she looked ordinary—with that figure alone, it would be worth it to have her company even just for one night!
With this in mind, Tan Xiangdie decided to follow her and learn her destination.
…
The oblivious Qi Qingyao happily carried the small bag and arrived at the entrance of Songhe Inn, not hiding herself in any way. Songhe Inn, a first-class restaurant in the capital, was open throughout the night. It was just that the shopkeeper would not be around then.
The shopkeeper was seated at the front desk, calculating yesterday’s accounts with an abacus when Qi Qingyao entered while carrying the bag. He looked at the girl who entered. When he glanced at her face out of the corner of his eyes, he did not plan to come out and greet her as she seemed to look ordinary—not like an aristocratic young lady at all.
However, he was shocked to see the limited-edition garment from Ziyun Boutique she was wearing. He was stunned when he recognized it. This garment alone proved that this person… had a huge backing! After all, the garment was limited edition.
The priceless kind.
The shopkeeper then curried favor habitually, wanting to greet her with a deep bow when he stepped out from the front desk.
When his gaze landed on the girl once more, the shopkeeper blinked.
Why was this face so familiar…
So familiar that…
He felt like he had met her recently.
The shopkeeper of Songhe Inn had an amazing skill, that was, a skill for remembering faces and names. He could not forget a person once he met them, which was why he was the shopkeeper!
The Capital City was full of dignitaries and aristocrats. If one recognized someone wrongly, it would be bad if any trouble resulted from it.
The shopkeeper quickly sifted through his memory. He felt a bolt of lightning flash through his mind.
Sh*t.
Was this not the girl who had come with the State Preceptor yesterday?
