Su Xiaoxiao said calmly, “She’s Consort Ling of your Western Jin, not the Great
Zhou. Why should I care about her?”
Yuwen Jing said coldly, “She’s also a princess of your Great Zhou!”
Su Xiaoxiao was fearless. “So what? This isn’t the Great Zhou.”
Yuwen Jing choked and fell back.
Guo Lingxi knew very well that Su Xiaoxiao’s mouth could anger a living person to death. She was not led by the nose by her. Instead, she asked, “Qin Su, did you come to the wrong place? The third floor of the Dongting Building is not a place for people like you.”
Her words woke her up from her dream. Yuwen Jing suddenly looked up at Su
Xiaoxiao. “That’s right. Every room here is only reserved for people from Western Jin. You’re not from Western Jin!”
The waiter happened to serve tea.
Yuwen Jing stopped him. “Do you put just anyone on the third floor?”
The shop assistant smiled awkwardly. “This room was booked by the Five
Elements Alliance. This girl is a guest of the Five Elements Alliance.”
Hearing that Su Xiaoxiao didn’t come in on her own, Yuwen Jing was speechless.
Guo Lingxi’s eyes flashed as she asked with a smile, “Jing’er, where’s our room?”
“Inside, the Heaven Room!” Thinking of her room, Yuwen Jing regained her sense of superiority.
Guo Lingxi praised, “Jing’er, you’re really amazing. You can actually book the
Heaven Room. I heard that it’s the best room in the Dongting Restaurant.”
Yuwen Jing said proudly, “My father is the Eldest Prince. Our Eldest Prince’s residence can book any room we want. There’s no need to beg Second Grandpa and Grandma.”
Guo Lingxi smiled and said, “Let’s go. Some people like to swindle others. Who knows what lie she told to enter the room of the Five Elements Alliance.” “Who’s making things up about our Five Elements Alliance?”
Accompanied by a dignified and low voice, a hale and hearty old master who was more than fifty years old walked over.
The waiter was caught in the middle and found it difficult to do anything. When he saw him, it was as if he had been pardoned. “Old Master Shen! You’re here!”
Yuwen Jing said to Guo Lingxi, “I’ve seen him in Father’s study. He’s Vice
Alliance Master Shen of the Five Elements Alliance!”
Vice Alliance Master Shen came to the two of them and cupped his hands at
Yuwen Jing. “Miss Yuwen.”
Yuwen Jing smiled faintly. “You came at the right time. The person inside said that she’s a guest of your Five Elements Alliance. Do you know her?” Vice Alliance Master Shen looked at Su Xiaoxiao and frowned.
Guo Lingxi pretended to exclaim, “Old Master Shen, you don’t know her?”
Yuwen Jing snorted and said, “Old Master Shen, I’m afraid you don’t know. She’s a big liar who swindles people everywhere. Last time, she said that she was Mr. Zhuge’s sister, but Mr. Zhuge doesn’t know her at all! If you don’t believe me, you can ask this person on my side. She’s a princess of the Great Zhou, and that woman is also from the Great Zhou. Everyone knows that Mr. Zhuge is from Northern Yan. How can he have a sister from the Great Zhou?”
“Dad! Dad! It’s my guest!”
Second Master Shen climbed up the stairs, panting.
He had just gone to pick Wei Ting up and was told that Wei Ting had already left. He quickly came over.
He grabbed his sleeve and said breathlessly, “I… I’m holding a banquet here tonight.”
Old Master Shen muttered,”l wanted a banquet too!”
Guo Lingxi smiled. “Old Master Shen, your Five Elements Alliance is the largest business alliance in the world. It’s best not to befriend any random people. If word gets out, it will be a disgrace to your status.”
Regardless of Su Xiaoxiao’s status in the Great Zhou, this was the Western Jin. The Great Zhou’s methods were useless. If she dared to scam Zhuge Qing, she dared to guarantee that no one in the Western Jin would have the guts to continue interacting with her!
There was indeed a hint of hesitation on Old Master Shen’s face.
He had never interfered much with his son’s friendships. If he snatched his room, the matter would be over if he beat him up later.
