After the hangover, her mouth had a strange taste, so she picked up a water bladder to rinse her mouth and then took out some fine salt to rub her teeth.
Once she finished cleaning up, she took out two fruits, tossing one of the apples toward Dong Huiying.
"Thank you," she was indeed hungry, but she didn’t plan on taking advantage of anyone. So she took out Two Taels of Silver from her pocket, "This should cover my travel and food expenses, it’s surely enough."
Tie Hailan’s lips twitched, she pointed at her own nose, "Do I look like someone who’s stingy?"
No, quite the opposite. Boss Tie decorated with gold and wearing jade, adorned with gold bracelets and gemstone belts, exuded the air of a nouveau riche, unmistakably a wealthy landlord.
Dong Huiying gave her a glance, previously, due to He Su’s matter, she had no good feelings toward this person, but now upon closer contact, she suddenly felt that maybe this person wasn’t so hateful. However, He Su was a schemer, so how did someone who seemed so careless and heartless become involved with her?
Tie Hailan sighed sorrowfully, "Sis is unparalleled in elegance, not only do the men of this world obsess over her, even young ladies fall in love with sis."
What about shame? Where has it gone?
Dong Huiying rolled her eyes, unaware that Tie Hailan blushed, glanced at her petite frame, and felt an increasing itch in her paws.
Really wanted to touch her, so small and cute.
She suddenly remembered Black Eagle, a man of few words who couldn’t be prodded into saying much, but he had a quirk – he was particularly fond of small animals, children, in short, all sorts of little things. And it was because she hung around Black Eagle that she caught this trait.
Dong Huiying felt somewhat uneasy.
What’s with this person, why does she keep staring at her?
She touched her cheek, accidentally brushing against the scar on her face.
The wound had already scabbed over.
"Speaking of which—" Tie Hailan crunched on a juicy red apple, "how did your face get like that?" The last time she saw this lass, Officer Fang was in a hurry to arrest someone, so she didn’t have the chance to look closely. But the girl was clean and fair, quite good-looking, youthful and tender, lovely as Yu Xue. But her face was ruined today, what a pity.
Dong Huiying quietly munched on her apple, while Tie Hailan found her personality quite amusing, so she tried her best to tease her into talking. But she ignored her completely.
After finishing the big apple, she patted her stomach and closed her eyes to rest. Letting Tie Hailan chatter beside her without cessation, she maintained the composure of a deeply meditative old monk.
Tie Hailan felt slighted, "Not cute at all! Kids should smile more, acting all high-and-mighty like a little old lady, beware of growing old before your time."
Dong Huiying stiffened, reaching the end of her patience, "I’m eighteen years old, thank you!"
"Really? You’re actually eighteen?"
Because of He Su’s matter, she had secretly investigated ’Phoenix Blood’ and knew that his name was Liang Shujun, with a fiancée at home. In fact, the reason she had helped He Su in the first place was partly due to their friendship, and partly because, from what she had found out, Liang Shujun’s fiancée was not good to the Liang Family Brothers.
In fact, it wasn’t just not good – domestic abuse, verbal insults, all aspects were nearly complete.
Her thought at the time was, since Liang Shujun’s life was so bitter with such a woman, it might as well benefit He Su instead.
