“When you beg me to give you a chance to redeem yourself, shouldn’t you show your sincerity in correcting your mistake first? Instead, you beg me to take you out as a chance to correct yourself, in hope that you can gain benefit from this?”

Without anyone else around, Wei Ruo didn’t need to care about her image and rolled her eyes nonchalantly.

“But……”

“No buts, and don’t even think about it. If you need someone to accompany you, you can find your friends. Hasn’t Ms. Qian asked you out? If not, you can go there by yourself. Don’t look for me. I don’t have time for you.”

After speaking, Wei Ruo avoided Wei Qingwan and didn’t want to waste any time. She walked quickly towards the door, decisively leaving with confidence.

Wei Ruo arrived at the location agreed upon with Xie Ying, which was at the Sibaozhai that Wei Ruo often visited.

This location was decided by Xie Ying. Most women go to the Rouge Shop jewelry store to meet up, but Xie Ying had a different idea.

“Are you coming here to buy something?” Wei Ruo asked.

“Well, to buy some paper. My brother is coming back soon, and the capital is full of good things. I don’t need to buy him anything, but since paper here is not even sold in the capital, I’ll buy some to let him see the world!”

Xie Ying said as she strode into Sibaozhai.

“Shopkeeper, I want to buy a hundred.” Xie Ying took out an ingot of silver and placed it on the counter domineeringly.

Shopkeeper Jia explained with great embarrassment: “I’m sorry, miss. Look at the notice posted at our doorstep. Each person can only buy fifty copies per day. If you want to buy more, you can only buy our set, which also contains paper, and there is no limit.”

“What kind of shitty rule is this? Can’t I buy your paper even though I have money?” Xie Ying asked.

“Miss, calm down. The situation is like this, we have a limited amount of paper that can be produced daily. If we don’t limit the purchase quantity, we’re afraid that it will be purchased all at once, while other customers are left with empty stock.” Shopkeeper Jia patiently explained.

Xie Ying could accept this explanation, but still felt a bit unhappy.

“How can I give my brother a gift only with this much? I will look so petty to him, won’t I?”

“Shopkeeper, I’ll buy fifty too.” Wei Ruo walked up to the boss.

The shopkeeper immediately handed Wei Ruo fifty sheets of paper.

After getting the paper, Wei Ruo handed it to Xie Ying directly.

“For me?” Xie Ying asked.

“Yes.”

“Then I will gladly accept it. I’ll give you the silver later.” Xie Ying didn’t hesitate and accepted it directly.

“There’s no need to be so courteous with me, take this as my Qiqiao Festival gift to you.”

“Okay.” Xie Ying didn’t say much.

Then Xie Ying looked at other things in the store and planned to buy some more pens, ink, paper, and inkstones as a gift for her brother.

Xie Ying saw wooden boxes of the same size and shape placed on the shelf on one side of the store, each box tied neatly with ribbons.

Xie Ying asked: “Shopkeeper, what are those wooden boxes?”

“That contains goods from our store, it could be paper, it could be an ink stone, it could be a combination of a few things, some consist of better quality products and some are of average quality.” The shopkeeper explained.

“Each one is different?” Xie Ying was puzzled.   

“Yes, each one is different, but the selling price is the same, five taels of silver per wooden box.” The shopkeeper replied.

“Then can I open it and take a look?” Xie Ying asked again.

“You can’t. You can only find out what’s inside after you buy it.”
