Liu Jiaying was disappointed.

She asked, “is there really a limit of 30 people? Can’t you squeeze two more people in?” As she said this, she looked at the attendant with a pitiful look, “brother, why don’t you make an exception and let my little sister and me in? We’re just kids.”

Xiao Li shook his head and said, “miss, I’m very sorry. The shop is small, and we need to give the customers enough space to look around. Therefore, only 30 customers can enter at a time. This is our rule. Since it’s a rule, I can’t break it!”

“Oh,” Liu Jiaying said in disappointment.

She heard a series of exclamations from inside, and she really wanted to go inside and take a look at the clothes.

Lin Yuelan couldn’t bear to see Liu Jiaying disappointed. She pulled Liu Jiaying and whispered to her, “Ying ‘Er, come with me.”

Then, she looked around with a mysterious look.

Liu Jiaying also lowered her head and asked in a low voice, “Yuelan, where are we going?”

Lin Yuelan pulled Liu Jiaying to the right.

After squeezing out of the crowd, Liu Jiaying looked around with confusion. They were standing in the alley on the right.

Lin Yuelan didn’t answer her. She pulled her into the alley again. After a while, they stopped in front of a small door, which was locked.

Liu Jiaying looked around and then at the small door. She whispered to Lin Yuelan, “Yuelan, is this the backyard door of the Linyue Pavilion? Are we entering from here?” Looking at the locked door, she asked doubtfully, “but the door is locked.” How were they going to get in then?

Lin Yuelan immediately consoled her, “Don’t worry, Ying ‘Er. This won’t be a problem for me!”

......

Jiang Zhennan, who had been hiding in the shadows, looked at Lin Yuelan’s confident posture and thought to himself worriedly, “Miss Yue ‘Er, are you trying to pick the lock?”

He saw Lin Yuelan immediately take a silver hairpin from Liu Jiaying’s head. Then, Jiang Zhennan’s face was filled with dark lines as he saw Lin Yuelan pick the lock. ‘What is happening? Why is she sneaking her way into her own shop?’

However, when he saw Lin Yuelan’s bright eyes and happy expression, Jiang Zhennan’s heart immediately softened, and he did not stop them.

This was because this was the first time he had seen Miss Yue ‘Er so happy.

However, he also felt a little sad and frustrated.

He had never seen Miss Yue ‘Er with such a happy expression around him.

With a clack, the lock opened.

Liu Jiaying’s eyes immediately widened, and she said in surprise, “Yuelan, you really opened it! You’re amazing!”

Upon hearing this, three black lines appeared on Jiang Zhennan’s forehead again. Why would a thief be praised?

After Lin Yuelan unlocked the door, she put the silver pin back into Liu Jiaying’s head. She clapped her hands and said, “This is a piece of cake for me.”

“Yuelan, what do you mean?” Liu Jiaying asked in confusion, “How is the key a cake?”

This time, it was Lin Yuelan’s turn to be dumbfounded, but she immediately reacted. That idiom hadn’t been invented in this era yet.

“Ying ‘Er, you have a great sense of humor.” Lin Yuelan smiled and quickly explained, “A piece of cake means that the job is very simple.”

Liu Jiaying still didn’t understand, but she believed Lin Yuelan. Liu Jiaying nodded. She had some blind trust in Lin Yuelan. Therefore, whatever Lin Yuelan said was true.

Lin Yuelan didn’t explain further. Instead, she took Liu Jiaying’s hand and said with a smile, “Ying ‘Er, let’s go in!”

“Alright!”

When Liu Qi and Zhou Wencai finally walked out of the crowd and into the alley, they saw a tall black figure enter through the small door.

“Oh no, are Ying ‘Er and Miss Lin being followed by a bad guy?” Liu Qi said worriedly, “brother Zhou, let’s hurry up and follow him. We can’t allow that man to hurt Ying ‘Er and Miss Lin.”

Just like that, Jiang Zhennan was labeled as a “bad guy.”

Zhou Wencai was as worried about the girls as Liu Qi, but he had a nagging feeling that the man wearing a black veil and black clothes was very familiar, as though he had seen him before. But he couldn’t remember where. In any case, he didn’t think that the man would hurt Liu Jiaying and Lin Yuelan because the man seemed to have been protecting them in the crowd earlier.

As Liu Qi was about to rush forward, Zhou Wencai immediately stopped him. “Brother Liu, don’t be rash!” He pulled the aggressive Liu Qi and said, “let’s go in and take a look first.”

Liu Jiayiung followed Lin Yuelan through the courtyard and into the inner room. She was about to go to the shop when she suddenly heard her brother’s voice, so she stopped.

She turned around and realized that a big person was following them.

It was a man in black clothes and a black veil. He did not give off the presence of a good person.

“Who are you?” Liu Jiaying shouted. Then, he quickly moved to protect Lin Yuelan behind her, just like an elder sister protecting her younger sister. “Why are you following us so sneakily?”

Jiang Zhennan’s temple throbbed. He was not being sneaky. He had always been by Lin Yuelan’s side.

Before he could explain, two more teenagers rushed up to him, staring at him aggressively and vigilantly.
