Reborn as a Merchant Girl, the General's Beloved

Seeing that they all believed him, Anan said, "My eldest uncle listened to my youngest uncle's good idea and thought that it would be a good idea to bring the delicacies from Lingnan here to enrich our business. Besides, we are busy and annoyed in the business world every day. If they hadn't thought I was troublesome and refused to take me with them, I would have gone with them."

This statement was barely reasonable, and the chaos in the Yuan family finally calmed down late at night.

Anan comforted the three people and waited until her mother fell asleep before she walked alone in the corridor with a serious expression. Bai Shao and Nanny Su followed far behind with the sedan chair, not daring to get close. Mingqi followed and stood behind her.

Anan turned around and looked at him deeply, with anger in her eyes. She just wanted to walk alone for a while, but Mingqi disturbed her thoughts, so she couldn't help feeling a little angry.

Mingqi showed some hesitation and helplessness on his face. He shook his head silently and said, "I'm afraid the matter is not simple. Hesheng is the top escort agency with deep connections in both the black and white worlds. There is nothing in the capital that they don't know. But now they have been asking for two days and there is no news at all. It's really unusual."

Anan's previous words fooled his mother and two aunts, but not Mingqi.

Anan thought for a moment and frowned slightly.

Mingqi asked her, "Miss, do you know anything?"

"I have a slight guess." Anan pondered, "By the way, there is a distinguished guest in Songyun Tower today. He is dressed in white and seems to be very familiar with Songyun Tower. The servants call him Jin Liu. Do you know him?"

Ming Qi heard this and replied, "That is the current Sixth Prince."

Anan nodded and said, "Take good care of my mother and two aunts, and look after the Yuan family. I will find a way to deal with the uncles."

Mingqi was stunned and once again looked at Anan in front of him. Seeing her burning eyes, he knew it was not a joke, and hurriedly said, "Miss, Jin Liu seems to be idle and non-confrontational, talking and laughing jokingly, but he is actually deep-minded and difficult to approach. Even when the two uncles were here on weekdays, I never had any friendship with him. What's more, now we have something to ask of us. Even if the cousin comes back, we may not be able to speak in front of him, not to mention..."

The remaining words were somewhat hurtful, so Mingqi didn't say them in the end.

Anan turned around and asked him, "He has no relationship with our Yuan family, how about with the Hong family?"

After hearing this, Mingqi finally understood Anan's plan. After a long while, he said sullenly, "My cousin is now running around in Yongning Guard to find a way out for you. If you use your identity as the daughter-in-law of the Hong family to do things, I'm afraid you will never be able to escape from this. In my opinion, although the situation is dangerous now, it has not yet reached that point."

Mingqi, who was always straightforward, rarely said this in a tactful way. Anan smiled faintly. It seemed that Lord Hong's reputation in the capital was indeed in a mess.

"There is something I need to remind Qi Ge'er. Before my two uncles return safely, I don't want anyone else to know about today's conversation." Anan raised his eyebrows and looked at him, "Including my mother."

Mingqi didn't say anything, but lowered his head as if he was in deep thought.

"I'm too lazy to say anything more. Brother Qi knows what is important and what is not, right?" After Anan said this, he didn't give him a chance to speak again. He waved for the sedan chair and sat on it.

The snow was getting heavier and the wind was howling.
