Chapter 1455 Pride and Prejudice and the Escort Agency
Lu Er Niang was originally big and strong, and when she put on men's clothes and stood in the crowd, she really couldn't be seen as a girl.
At this moment, he was looking at Shi Li with a smile. When he saw her looking at him, he immediately said familiarly, "Miss Shi, long time no see."
"haven't seen you for a long time."
Shi Li really didn't know what expression to use to face him, so she smiled and said tactfully, "I won't bother you today..."
"It's no trouble, no trouble. I'm here today just for Miss Shi." It was not known whether Lu Er Niang wanted to disrupt the situation on purpose or had other ideas. She just wanted to stand on the arena.
Shi Li didn't want to guess what she was thinking, so he put away his smile.
"The morning competition will start here first. If you really want to go to the competition arena, it won't be too late to wait an hour."
Lu Er Niang stopped smiling and just looked at her steadily.
The two looked at each other for a moment, and she finally let out a sigh of relief, "Okay, okay, don't be angry, Miss Shi, I'll come again this afternoon."
The two people on the stage didn't know what was going on between Shi Li and this person who suddenly appeared. They looked at each other, relaxed their vigilance against each other, and instead looked at Lu Er Niang with hostility.
No one recognized that this burly uninvited guest was actually a female bandit from the neighborhood.
Shi Li wanted to find out why Lu Erniang came here, so he told the servants around him to invite her over, and he went into the escort agency first.
The servant was ordered to go to Lu Er Niang and invite her. Lu Er Niang didn't seem surprised. She smiled again, nodded to the servant, and walked into the escort agency calmly.
It was in full view of everyone, and everyone who had not yet dispersed saw it.
Xu Zhenzhen also saw it, with a look of disbelief on her face.
"No way... Could it be that Lili likes someone like this?"
After Shi Li, whose aesthetic taste was suspected, walked back to the escort agency, he ordered the servants to prepare a sumptuous lunch, and then sat on a chair leisurely waiting for Lu Er Niang to appear.
After all, the two had had a brief contact before, and she believed that with Lu Erniang's intelligence, she would definitely be invited to see her.
So, no need to rush.
Shi Li took two sips of the teacup leisurely, and sure enough, she heard footsteps getting closer. She looked up and saw Lu Er Niang, dressed in men's clothes, and she curled her lips politely.
"Miss Shi, don't blame me for being abrupt. I am also employed by someone."
Lu Erniang was a straightforward person. When they met, she started explaining directly without Shi Li asking.
"No hurry. I haven't seen Mr. Lu for a long time. I finally meet him today. Please allow me to show my hospitality as a good host." Shi Li raised her hand to stop her and led people directly to the dining room.
No matter what, the Wenchang Escort Agency will still have to escort goods in the future, and it has to maintain good relations with both the black and white worlds, so she is not in a hurry to ask Lu Er Niang, but instead wants to build a good relationship with the other party.
Seeing this, Lu Erniang laughed even more wildly.
The servant of the escort agency was also sensible. He not only arranged a table full of delicious dishes, but also placed a jar full of the best girl's red wine on the table.
Shi Li poured herself a glass of daughter's red wine and raised the glass to Lu Erniang, "Today I can finally have a good drink with Master Lu."
When Lu Erniang saw the jar of daughter's red wine, she was visibly happy. She didn't even use a cup and just raised the jar to drink.
"Okay, okay, I knew that this girl is a straightforward person! This girl's red wine is really good!"
Whether it is a man or a woman, once they drink and become friends, they can start talking smoothly.
While Lu Erniang was drinking and eating, she also said what she had not finished saying just now.
She was not so kind as to really come to help Shi Li out, but was asked by someone to help him win the competition.
"Girl, you are so popular that some people can't wait to marry you home as their daughter-in-law!" Lu Er Niang teased in a frivolous manner.
The person she was talking about was the owner of Suifeng Escort Agency, whose status and reputation were second only to Wenchang Escort Agency. This owner, surnamed Tong, had a son who was a truly uneducated and unskilled dandy.
Anyone here knows that Mr. Tong spends all day in places of entertainment.
Shopkeeper Tong was troubled by his son, and also felt bad that Suifeng Escort Agency had always been suppressed by Wenchang Escort Agency. Now that Shi Li was going to compete for a husband, he came up with a good plan to kill two birds with one stone.
"Shopkeeper Tong offered me 100 taels and asked me to stand on the arena and defeat the others, and then pretend to lose to his son."
Lu Er Niang wiped the wine from her mouth and betrayed Manager Tong without hesitation.
Shi Li looked into her eyes and was not naive enough to think that the other party only wanted to be friends with him. Instead, he smiled.
"Master Lu is kind and righteous. I appreciate your kindness. I will buy some wine for your brothers later. We can all consider it an acquaintance."
Lu Erniang narrowed her eyes and smiled. She liked talking to someone as smart and straightforward as Shi Li.
"Then in the afternoon, I'll find someone to lose to." She also knows how to quit while she's ahead.
Who would have thought that Shi Li would shake her head——
"No, you have to win."
