Tang Shishi was slightly stupefied. She was half-real and half-fake being angry just now, just trying to get herself out. She did not think that Zhao Chengjun would see through her clearly. Tang Shishi thought that Zhao Chengjun would not pay attention to her. Unexpectedly, he actually agreed.

Listening to Zhao Chengjun's words, this sentence was not limited to rewarding money, it was also possible to ask for other things. Tang Shishi was lost in thought, entangled for a while, and euphemistically said, "Wangye, I haven't thought about it yet. When I think about it, I will ask you again. What do you think?"

Liu Ji raised his eyebrows. This was too much. Wangye rewarded her, and she did not thank him immediately, but she even bargained?

Zhao Chengjun smiled without saying a word and later said, "Beware of getting nothing at all with your insatiable greed. You are too greedy."

"Where got, it's clearly Wangye is generous." Regardless of whether Zhao Chengjun listens to it or not, Tang Shishi said, "Wanye is both virtuous and talented, and with profound good fortune. It's really a blessing for the common people to have you. Wangye is magnanimous, and would not haggle with me, this little girl. I wish you happiness and prosperity, a full house of children, and this little girl retire first!"

After Tang Shishi finished speaking, she did not dare to look at Zhao Chengjun and ran out quickly. Zhao Chengjun with a calm face chided, "Stop."

Tang Shishi ran halfway and stopped stiffly. She turned around slowly with a grievance in her eyes.

Zhao Chengjun pointed to the cloak with his eyes, and said, "Put your cloak properly before going out."

Liu Ji had been waiting calmly for a long time on one side. Hearing these words, he could not help but tsk in his heart.

Tsk, look. Liu Ji dared to guarantee that if the person who said these words today were him, he would have been punished outside by now. When the person was changed to Tang Shishi, the result was Zhao Chengjun did not dislike either being too noisy or be disturbed. At the end, when the other person wanted to leave, Zhao Chengjun was not angry, and his first reaction was to let the other person put on her cloak.

Ah...

Tang Shishi waited for a while and found that there was only this sentence. She was a little surprised, and tentatively walked a few steps towards outside, and found that Zhao Chengjun did not stop her. Tang Shishi put her heart back in her stomach, and immediately saluted, "Prince Jing, many blessings. This little girl will retire first."

Then, Tang Shishi put on her cloak, took the handwarmer in a hurry, and dashed into the strong wind outside.

Tang Shishi got a promise and was satisfied all the way. When she got back to her courtyard, she took a little rest, then put on her make-up and prepared to go to the New Year's Eve banquet.

Lu Yufei organized the New Year's Eve banquet, and the banquet hall was already lively. Because New Year's Eve was a family dinner, no outsiders were invited, and just people within the mansion having a meal, so the precautions between men and women were not so critical. However, if they think that this was just a mere family dinner and could have a good meal, then they were so wrong.

There were only seven women left in Liuyun courtyard. Shizi's Shizi Consort who had just entered the mansion, Shizi's two upright side concubines whom he accepted, and few other Shizi's bedwarmers with no status or whatsoever. Together with Tang Shishi, there were so many women gathered together in the banquet hall. It was just too electrifying.

At the banquet, all the women tried their best to be gorgeous, but their mouths were still modest. They told each other that their makeup was beautiful and just played it casually. As soon as Tang Shishi appeared, everyone was quiet.
