  Dong Qiaoqiao also understood the reasoning, after all, purchasing power is limited, and the wealthy and arrogant geniuses have already bought what they wanted, leaving little profit in the secondary market, if more prints are added, it would be a loss.

  She's a girl who is easily satisfied. Making a net profit of 5,000 taels of silver in just one morning is absolutely a miracle, something she wouldn't have dared to think about in the past. She's content now.

  "Lin, are you really going to the Xiao estate to be a house servant?" Dong Qiaoqiao stopped worrying about the additional printing and looked at Lin Wanrong who had been hesitating for half a day before finally speaking up: "You're not... doing it for Miss Xiao, are you?"

  "Hey, Qiaoqiao, you've figured it all out! You're really clever and perceptive, aren't you?"

  Dong Qiaoqiao revealed a strange expression, her face seeming somewhat pale.

  Lin Wanrong saw that the girl's expression was a bit depressed, and couldn't bear to tease her anymore. He shook his head and laughed: "Hehe, I'm just joking with you. Don't worry, I don't have any interest in that Xiao young lady. Think about it, no one has ever seen what she looks like, if she's an ugly freak who clings to me, then I'd rather hang myself from a tree."

  Dong Qiaoqiao found what he said interesting and couldn't help but burst out laughing: "Who arranges people like you do?"

  Lin Wanrong smiled and said, "Life is not as one wishes it to be, eight or nine times out of ten. I went to the Xiao family to work, also with my own difficulties. You also know that this time we sold this small book, business was good, but it's just a one-time deal, not a long-term plan. I also need to eat, need to support my family, can find a place to take me in is already pretty good. The treatment of the Xiao family's housekeeper is not bad, I am a person without ambition, like to go with the flow, and besides, I don't have any special skills, just look a bit handsome, have a good temper, and have many ideas, if the Xiao family chose me as their housekeeper, it can be considered finding the right person."

  Lin Wanrong had a bitter expression on his face, which didn't need to be pretended. If he hadn't fallen into Old Man Wei's trap, he would rather die than come to serve others.

  Dong Qiaoqiao's face turned red as she covered her mouth and giggled: "Lin, your skin is really thick. However, it's very pleasant talking to you, not only are you a good person, but also knowledgeable, I enjoy chatting with you."

  Lin Wanrong chuckled and said, "Of course, you know, in my hometown, many girls liked to listen to me talk. As soon as I started working, everyone would gather around me to hear me tell stories. How's that? Charming, right?"

  This isn't the kid bragging, Lin Wanrong is an optimistic person, has good eloquence, and gets along well with everyone. As the saying goes, "smile and don't hit when someone stretches out their hand", doing business like this requires having a thick skin.

  "Is that so?" Dong Qiaoqiao glanced at him and said: "I don't know which family's young lady is lucky enough to be married off to a good family like Brother Lin."

  Lin Wanrong thought of those girlfriends he had been with, both the ones who loved him and the ones he loved, all gone like flowing water, never to be seen again.

  A hint of despair flashed across his face, and he shook his head with a bitter smile: "What good fortune is this? Now I'm just a lone gunman, wherever I go, I can fall at any time."

  His desolate meaning fell into Qiaoqiao's eyes, Dong Qiaoqiao lowered her head and bit her lip, heard his words, but then raised her head again, a bright light flashing across her face.

  However, Brother Lin, you're scaring me with that serious face of yours." Dong Qiaoqiao imitated Lin Wanrong's tone and deliberately spoke in a rough voice: "Face is given by others, but dignity is earned by oneself——" After finishing, she giggled again.

  Lin Wanrong wanted to smile, but didn't smile. He put away the smile on his face and said seriously: "Qiao Qiao, you can't judge by appearance. You only think it's fun talking to me, how do you know I'm not a bad person?"

  Lin Wanrong recalled the past business dealings of mutual deception, where people would smile and show their faces when meeting, but stab each other in the back as soon as they turned around. Lin had seen many such things and had even participated in many himself. Now that he thought about it, it all seemed like a dream.

  Dong Qiaoqiao was taken aback, she had been with Lin Wanrong for a few days and saw him laughing all day without being serious, but had never seen him like this.

  She softly hummed and looked at Lin Wanrong with a gentle voice: "Brother Lin, do you have something on your mind? You seem unhappy. Can you tell Qiaoqiao about it?"

  Lin Wanrong burst out laughing: "You little girl don't be so clever, I'm very happy."

  Dong Qiaoqiao looked at him and said firmly: "Lin Ge, you are a good person. From the moment I saw you for the first time, I knew."

  She finished speaking, took a deep look at Lin Wanrong, then picked up her empty lunchbox and ran away quickly.

  Lin Wanrong touched his nose helplessly, "Am I a good person?" Hmm, I think so too. But looking at this girl running, she's quite fast, if she goes to practice sprinting, she might be a good material.

  Having eaten and drunk enough, Lin Wanrong didn't even bother to go home. He leaned against the tree trunk, covering his face with a small booklet he had sold earlier, and fell fast asleep.

  I don't know how long I slept, but suddenly I felt a tickle in my nostrils, and before I could even let out a sneeze, I was already awake.

  Lin Wanrong opened his eyes dazedly, only to see a delicate face like a flower in front of him, with a hint of a smile that seemed to be both smiling and not smiling at the same time.

  "Huh, which family's little girl is this? So lively. Lin Wanrong yawned and became a bit more alert, only to see the little girl in front of him holding a small booklet, smiling at him."

  This girl is probably sixteen or seventeen years old, with curved eyebrows, big eyes, a small cherry mouth, and a pink face. She wears a yellow satin flower skirt, and on her feet are a pair of light red leather boots, exuding a strong and proud aura. Although she's not very old, her chest is high and well-developed, truly a rare beauty.

  This girl looks somehow a bit familiar? Lin Wanrong felt a little strange in his heart, he was sure that he had never seen her before. The beauties he had seen, regardless of age, would generally have an impression on him.

  Seeing the little girl staring at him, Lin Wanrong didn't think much and smiled: "This little girl, although I'm very tall, handsome, talented and lovely, but if you stare at me like this, I'll feel embarrassed too."

  The little girl's face turned red, and she glared at him fiercely, waving the small booklet in her hand: "Hmph, you rascal, is this little painting book something you made up?"

  She held high in her hand was exactly the small booklet that Lin Wanrong had placed on his face when he fell asleep, and it was unknown when this little girl took it down.

  Lin Wanrong chuckled and said, "How about it, little girl? You also want to buy this booklet? Does your family have older brothers or cousins? Alas, why are these guys so shameless? They can't bear to lose face themselves, but instead send you here."

  The little girl's eyes rolled around and said: "Yes, yes, it was my brother who asked me to come. Is this the Miss Xiao in the painting?"

  Lin Wanrong nodded and said, "Of course, this is a rare book that has been passed down within the Xiao family, and I had a hard time getting it. Alas, I'm a soft-hearted person, and I especially can't bear to see beautiful young girls come to ask me for things. Alright, alright, I'll sell it to you at a loss of fifteen taels of silver."

  That little girl hummed and said, "You're not honest at all. I've been following you for a whole morning, and you sold it to others for ten taels of silver, but now that it's in my hands, you want fifteen taels of silver."
