76 -76: The Art of Making Money

Xiao Xiao, who had initially felt shy as Lin Yi suddenly pulled her into his embrace, suddenly became startled upon hearing his words.

A bit clumsily, she raised her head to look at Lin Yi’s handsome face:

“Can I?

Of course, I can sew, but what’s wrong?”

No sooner had she said these words than her cute face turned red.

Then, her face blushing profusely, she buried her head back into Lin Yi’s chest, whispering like a mosquito’s buzz:

“You scoundrel, it’s still broad daylight and you’re thinking of nothing decent.”

This unexpected move left Lin Yi somewhat dumbfounded.

Wasn’t he discussing serious matters?

How had it turned into him harboring indecent thoughts?

“Uh, Miss Xiao Xiao, I haven’t done anything though!”

Who knew that as soon as he spoke, Xiao Xiao became even more bashful and pointed to a big bulge below Lin Yi’s waist.

Lin Yi instantly smacked his forehead:

“Ah, you’re talking about this?

It’s not what you think it is, hehe.

You’ve really wronged me this time, Miss Xiao Xiao.

Look, I’ll take it out for you to see.”

With those words, Lin Yi reached down directly, leaving Xiao Xiao unsure of how to react.

All she could do was grumble to herself about how this scoundrel just knew how to bully her.

“Here, let me show you, Miss Xiao Xiao, you’ve thought too much.”

Upon hearing this, Xiao Xiao didn’t have the nerve to open her eyes.

Only yesterday, she’d been duped, so she was too embarrassed to look.

Seeing her like this, Lin Yi found himself helplessly amused.

He directly brought a spherical object before Xiao Xiao’s eyes:

“Hey, look what you’ve been thinking about in that little head of yours.

See, it’s not what you thought.

Look, this is a treasure I picked up along the way.”

When Xiao Xiao finally saw that what Lin Yi had pulled out wasn’t the indecent thing she’d imagined in her mind, but a large Luminous Pearl, she wished she could find a hole to crawl into.

She was utterly embarrassed; that scoundrel just knew how to tease her.

“You, you, why would you hide it in your pants?”

Yes, what Lin Yi had taken out was indeed the Emperor’s Luminous Pearl.

…

And to tell the truth, it fit quite snugly in there.

Apart from walking with a wobble, there was no discomfort.

That’s why Lin Yi was walking so oddly.

“Hey, it was just too big and I had no other place to put it.

It was safer to keep it there.”

One sentence left Xiao Xiao at a loss for words.

At this moment, Lin Yi’s voice rang out again:

“Miss Xiao Xiao, let’s talk business.

As for ‘sewing,’ let’s leave that for tonight.

After all, making money is more important right now, as it will affect our future quality of life.

If you can sew, hurry and make me a special piece of clothing.

Besides reinforcing my current clothes, you’ll need to sew some special pockets inside.

Then I’ll go for a stroll through Chen Baicheng’s house.”

With that one sentence, he drew the embarrassed Xiao Xiao’s attention back.

By this time, Xiao Xiao’s mouth was agape wide enough to fit a sausage and two eggs, full of shock.

She even began to doubt her ears – was this guy actually going to steal more Silver?

In the end, unable to withstand Lin Yi’s continuous persuasion and pretension of weakness, Xiao Xiao reluctantly picked up needle and thread.

But her sewing clearly didn’t meet Lin Yi’s requirements; not only could it carry too little, but it was also too painstaking. freёwebnoѵel.com

Finally, on Lin Yi’s suggestion, they simply stitched two robes together.

This led to a very bizarre scene when Lin Yi put them on – he appeared to have gained a whole size.

And he couldn’t even be described as walking any longer; it was more like shuffling.

Back in the Imperial Study Room, the Emperor, hearing his subordinate’s report, couldn’t help laughing and crying.

He had to admire Lin Yi’s creativity.

But no matter how much Lin Yi schemed, a few thousand taels should be enough for his antics.

Thus, the Emperor turned a blind eye.

Luckily, Lin Yi didn’t make a third trip.

Of course, it wasn’t that Lin Yi didn’t want to – after all, who would ever complain about having too much Silver?

But the fact was that Lin Yi was genuinely physically weak.

After walking with hundreds of pounds twice, he was completely out of breath.

After lying down in bed, he had no energy left.

However, although he was physically tired, his heart was not.

With his persistent coaxing and feigned helplessness, the kind-hearted Xiao Xiao ultimately could not escape his clutches.

Even though Lin Yi was too tired to move, Xiao Xiao could.

But considering Xiao Xiao was a woman and her strength was limited, not to mention having no experience in such things, she was defeated after merely two rounds.

Lin Yi, just having warmed up, was naturally unsatisfied.

Yet, looking at the equally exhausted Xiao Xiao, he sighed helplessly:

“Miss Xiao Xiao, I know you did your best, and I’d feel terrible making you exert yourself more.”

After this statement, Xiao Xiao was incredibly moved.

She didn’t expect him to have such a tender and caring side.

It seemed she had not misjudged him after all.

Moved, she threw herself into Lin Yi’s embrace, thinking that they would definitely fall asleep in each other’s arms.

However, just then, Lin Yi’s voice sounded again, and his tone was so gentle, so caring:

“Training for so long, you must be tired, right?

You didn’t eat when you got off work either, did you?

Ah, it really breaks my heart to see you not eating.

Hehe, but luckily, I specially prepared some tasty treats for you.

There’s sausages with filling, and two tea eggs.

Come, I’ll feed you; eat it while it’s hot.”

Xiao Xiao: “I’m not hungry!

I don’t want to eat!”

Lin Yi: “How can that be?

Eat up quickly; you’ll have milk to drink after.

Freshly squeezed, very fresh.

You girls should drink more milk; it’s good for the skin.”

Xiao Xiao: I don’t trust you, you devil!

But truth be told, Xiao Xiao might have really been hungry, because she ate with such relish.

Notice the teary gleam in the corner of her eyes?

Lin Yi, watching her eat so contentedly, couldn’t help but reveal a look of relief.

And he murmured to himself uncontrollably:

“My girl can’t be hungry.

As long as your brother is here, there will always be a hot bite for you!”

Now looking at Xiao Xiao, after hearing these words, she rolled her eyes tenderly, but in her heart, she only wanted to say two words:

…End of Chapter…

ps: Buddies, what do you think those two words Xiao Xiao wanted to say were?
