Chapter 1451 Pride and Prejudice and the Escort Agency
The girl's name was Xu Zhenzhen, taken from "its leaves are lush" in the Book of Songs.
The teahouse was bustling with people. Xu Zhenzhen spoke quickly, not even giving Shi Li a chance to introduce herself, and started talking about her own affairs first.
She came here secretly without telling her family, and her only purpose was to see what the female escorts of Wenchang Escort Agency looked like.
"So, why do you want to see what she looks like?" Shi Li looked at Xu Zhenzhen's face carefully, thinking in her mind how to explain to her that she was the person she wanted to see.
Xu Zhenzhen clenched her fists, and her movements were particularly familiar.
"My cousin is obsessed with her all day long, so I... naturally want to come and see what kind of woman she is."
Shi Li had just taken a sip of tea and almost spit it out when she heard this.
After finally swallowing the tea, he no longer dared to hold the teacup, wondering when the original owner had gotten into such an affair, and she had no memory of it at all. What a sin.
[Is there a possibility that the original owner was not the one who committed the sin...]
[Anchor, think about it carefully, did you really not provoke anyone? ]
[I already know whose cousin this girl is, are you stupid, host? ! ! ]
The comments were very exciting, but Shi Li thought they were talking nonsense. She asked cautiously, "So, your cousin is..."
"My cousin is the young master of Baiyuan Villa!" Xu Zhenzhen raised her chin proudly. This action also seemed very familiar.
"Oh, oh, Young Master Baiyuan Villa..."
Shi Li agreed, but suddenly got stuck. She slightly widened her eyes and forced a smile, "The young master of Baiyuan Villa... Luo Qingyan?"
"Huh? You know my cousin!" Xu Zhenzhen exclaimed in surprise, grabbing Shi Li's hand, "No wonder I felt so close to you the first time I saw you!"
Shi Li: ...
"Is there a possibility..."
She hesitated and looked at Xu Zhenzhen, "Did you misunderstand that female escort?"
"Impossible! Absolutely impossible!" Xu Zhenzhen was very sure, "My cousin lost his appetite after he broke up with her!"
Shi Li prided himself on being eloquent, but now he was at a loss for words.
Looking at the girl with such persistence and childishness on her face, I didn't know how to refute her for a moment, and even felt inexplicably guilty.
"Oh! My dear lady, I finally found you!"
While Shi Li was at a loss, anxious voices came closer and closer.
It turned out that the two guards around Xu Zhenzhen finally found this place.
While they were surrounding Xu Zhenzhen and asking about her well-being, Shi Li quietly stepped back and slipped out of the teahouse.
On the way back, I felt a lingering fear.
She and Luo Qingyan were clearly just an employer and escort relationship where money and goods were exchanged, so how could she have allowed her little cousin to misunderstand her to such an extent?
After this, she didn't know how to face Xu Zhenzhen. It was such a sin.
Shi Li kept thinking about this unreliable thing as he walked back to Wenchang Escort Agency, and then he found that what he was about to face was an even more unreliable thing.
In the inner hall of the escort agency, there were actually several managers of the agency gathered. Shi Buhuo sat in the middle of them with a very serious expression.
The situation was just like the six major sects besieging Guangmingding.
The servant guarding the door saw Shi Li and hurried over to her, explaining in a low voice the purpose of the escort agency managers' visit.
They actually united to put pressure on Shi Buhuo, demanding that the Wenchang Escort Agency must be run by a man and that Shi Li, a woman, must not be allowed to control the agency.
Shi Li: ???
"Why do they do that?" Both the original owner and she have shown their ability to stand on their own, so what are these people clamoring for? ? ?
I really don't understand.
“They said that if the shopkeeper disagrees, they will join forces with all the escort agencies to boycott the Wenchang Escort Agency.” The servant whispered nearby.
Shi Li almost sneered, and finally understood——
Since ancient times, colleagues have been enemies. They looked down on her because she was a woman. Seeing that she made a lot of money, they were jealous enough to join forces to cause trouble.
It’s so funny and ridiculous!
Shaking his head in his heart, Shi Li walked in and just in time heard one of them say, "There are so many of us escorts here, but if a little girl keeps pressing on our heads, where can we put our faces?"
"Yes, yes, yes! If it were you, why don't you hold a martial arts competition to find a bride..."
"A contest to recruit a bride?"
Shi Li walked calmly to Shi Buhuo's side, glanced at the faces of the others, and laughed with an ambiguous tone, "Fight with me? Are you sure anyone can stay on the stage?"
Everyone had been concentrating on "besieging" Shi Buhuo and didn't notice when she appeared, and they were all stunned.
After a while, a middle-aged man raised his head and began to preach like an elder.
"Girl, you are still too young. Don't think that you can achieve great success by escorting a few times. Listen to your uncle's advice. Our business is not easy. You can't control it..."
"In that case, let's have a competition to find a husband. I'm also curious to see what kind of person can stay in the ring."
Shi Li was really impatient and interrupted him with a smile.
