My laughter echoed as Ling Yan’s heart bled at my arrogance.

Shang said Mo Ran mentioned matters awaiting me at the First Under Heaven Hall, so he packed my bags last night. After breakfast, I was to return. Ling Shuang, Ling Yan, and Old Ling Dad saw me off at the main gate.
Ling Shuang looked at me tenderly, “Han’er, take care of yourself, visit when you can…”
“Cough cough,” Ling Yan interrupted, “Well, see you later.”
“Later, my foot! I hope I never see your disgusting face again!”
I never thought someone as terrible as you could exist, and you’re even gay!”
“You… you… you’re nonsensical!” Ling Yan’s face alternated between red and white. “Hmph! Better than your unreasonable behavior!” I kicked him and walked away, hearing Ling Yan’s murderous scream behind me: “Ling Xiaochan! If I can’t have children because of this, I’ll kill you!”
Moran ran away with a scream. I swallowed and said, “I was just playing around. If you’re unhappy, please go wash your face. There’s hand soap and a towel in the bathroom. I’m out of here!”
I ran away quickly, realizing I couldn’t provoke this scary Shang. If I had known earlier, I wouldn’t have played around!

A few days later, Xiao Yuan arrived at the First Under Heaven Hall to report for work. After working for several days, he discovered how hardworking Xiao Yuan was! Moon, you must protect him!
With Xiao Yuan managing Lian Xing Pavilion, business improved significantly. Moreover, the branch of the First Under Heaven Hall has begun construction in the capital of Zhen Ming Kingdom.
Even before opening, citizens are discussing it, and some have placed orders. I’m sure I’ll be even richer soon! Wahaha…
Perhaps the Jade Emperor’s mood wasn’t great recently. Heavy rain had fallen for several days, dark clouds covered the sky, and the sun refused to show its face. However, this gloomy weather didn’t affect the First Under Heaven Hall’s business, with a constant stream of customers.
