ARDA - Chapter 42 - Miss Jiang is so Generous

 Jiang Ning noticed the greed in Xu Yuanqing's eyes and his ogling gaze, she couldn't help but want to beat him up. But not to worry, let him be beautiful for a while, and only when his hopes were shattered would he realize how desperate he was.

After Xu Yuanqing saw Jiang Ning spending a large sum of money, he became even more enthusiastic and lowered his attitude to have conversation.

"Ms. Jiang, are these inkstones going to be given away?"

"That man is really lucky to let Miss Jiang spend so much money."

Jiang Ning didn't want to listen to Xu Yuanqing's nagging, so she raised her face and asked him, "Why is Mr. Xu here? Do you want to buy paper and ink?"

Xu Yuanqing was startled.

He came here just to see Miss Jiang. Miss Jiang's maid sent him a message, saying that if he went to Wenmo Shop today, he could meet Miss Jiang.

Jiang Ning blinked, "Master Xu, please don't delay your business because of me. Go buy it quickly."

Xu Yuanqing had no intention of buying anything at all. He only had a little silver left on him, and he was going to drink wine in the evening, but he couldn't tell Miss Jiang that he was just here to take a look.

He walked over bravely and chose cheap rice paper, which he could afford.

When Xu Yuanqing was checking out, he felt his heart bleeding.

What little money he had left was spent on a pile of useless paper.

Jiang Ning curled her lips when she saw the painful look on his face.

Jiang Ning asked Chun Lan to put the two inkstones on the carriage, turned around, and walked out of Wenmo Shop, preparing to return home.

After walking for a while, she suddenly had an idea and ordered Chun Lan.

Chun Lan looked surprised, "Miss, why do you want to give money to Xu Yuanqing? That person Xu Yuanqing is greedy. If he has money, he will go to the gambling house. It's like a puddle of mud that can't hold up the wall!"

Jiang Ning chuckled, "What? Do you think I have a crush on him?"

"No, this is not what I mean..."

Chun Lan just felt that the money was not worth spending. Even if it was given to a beggar, it would be better than giving it to Xu Yuanqing.

Jiang Ning looked far away and landed on Xu Yuanqing not far away. He was dejected and wanted to tear up the paper in anger.

"This guy, once his appetite grows, he can't go back."

Jiang Mengyue secretly gave Xu Yuanqing money to lure him into getting involved with her.

What if Xu Yuanqing is not satisfied with that little money? 

"Go ahead, it's just a little money, I don't care about it."

Chun Lan didn't know why the lady did this, but the lady should have her own considerations. She believed in the lady.

Chun Lan jumped off the carriage, trotted over, and stuffed the silver into Xu Yuanqing's hand, "Mr. Xu, this is what my lady gave to you. Please don't let people down and may Mr. Xu live up to the expectations of the Marquis, and obtain fame as soon as possible."

Xu Yuanqing weighed the silver ingot in his hand and his eyelids twitched. This was not a small amount.

Miss Jiang was so generous. She must have felt distressed when she saw him buying cheap rice paper, so she gave him money.

Put it this way...

Does it mean that Miss Jiang already has him in her heart? 

Xu Yuanqing felt happy and immediately accepted the money.

"Thank Miss Jiang for me. I will definitely live up to Miss Jiang's expectations."

Chun Lan turned around and ran back to the carriage without looking back. She didn't want to take another look at such a greedy person.

After Xu Yuanqing took the money, he hesitated for a while and went straight to the gambling house.

He has just tasted the fun of gambling. If he plays a few more games, he can win back all the money he has lost!
