In the seven days after arriving at Yangzhou, Jin Miaowan was strolling aimlessly, no matter where she was curious, new, or interesting. Shen Kai and the five Escort s all thought that Jin Miaowan had come to Yangzhou purely to play.

"Shen Kai, do you think I should look good with a hairpin?" At that moment, Jin Miaowan was at a stall, looking at the hairpin in his hands as he asked Shen Kai who was beside him.

Because Jin Miaowan was a low-key person, most of her trips took him without any female servants, and the two female servants were forcefully arranged by the Golden Mount to take care of her daily necessities. After interacting with him for a period of time, Jin Miaowan did not treat Shen Kai as a guard nor did she treat him as a friend.

As the daughter of Goldstone Trading Company, Jin Miaowan's wealth was unimaginable, but he was not one of those people who spent money sleepily. Although she liked this normal hairpin that didn't seem to be worth even a tael, he didn't immediately buy it. Instead, he chose to ask for Shen Kai's opinion.

Long before the Escort Great Assembly a month ago, Shen Kai had first seen Dong Yixin. At that time, Dong Yixin was also picking out a hairpin in front of a small stall. Thinking about Dong Yixin, Shen Kai unknowingly smiled and thought, "It seems that all women like these accessories."

"What are you so happy about?" Jin Miaowan couldn't help but ask when he saw Shen Kai not replying to him, but instead laughing to himself.

"No, nothing." Shen Kai came back to reality and touched his nose in embarrassment.

Jin Miaowan's bright eyes tightly locked onto Shen Kai, and gently asked: "Could it be that you're thinking about which lady?"

Not knowing if he should say that Jin Miaowan was smart or if these eyes could see through their thoughts, Shen Kai smiled but did not speak, and did not continue with the topic.

"Is this handsome little brother buying jewelry?" Just as Shen Kai was about to give his opinion, a lady asked.

Shen Kai turned his head, only to realise that a beautiful lady dressed in embroidered clothes was standing behind him, revealing a smile that could enchant a passerby.

Shen Kai looked at the girl and confirmed that he did not recognize the person in front of him, but still nodded politely.

Yu Manman was the young girl of the Yu Family in the imperial city. When she went out to meet her friends, she passed by a small jewelry store and saw a handsome man with an extraordinary bearing.

"I happen to know some rouge jewelry, I wonder if I can help?" Yu Manman opened her red lips. In terms of choosing rouge and accessories, the woman was more than suitable. The reason and excuse that Yu Manman gave to start a conversation was not something that Shen Kai could refute.

But would a man who bought rouge jewelry use it for himself? It had to be for another woman, or chosen for another woman.

For the past few days, he had been out sightseeing. Because of Shen Kai's outstanding appearance, there would always be a few girls who would secretly send him off, but most of them would be because of Jin Miaowan, who was standing next to him. No matter how agitated she was, she would not dare to openly chat with Shen Kai.

Yet this woman kept talking to Shen Kai, treating her as air. Jin Miaowan cleared her throat, "Cough, cough, Xiao Kai, who do you think I should look good on?" In order to announce her territory, Jin Miaowan had specially called Shen Kai Xiao Kai Xiao Kai, since that was how she called him anyway.

Jin Miaowan opened her mouth to speak, and it was only then that Yu Manman noticed that there was a lady beside him, but when she saw Jin Miaowan's appearance, she did not look outstanding, and because of her unremarkable appearance, Yu Manman thought that Jin Miaowan was just a passerby. For such an outstanding man like Shen Kai, how could a woman who stood beside him be normal?

Because Shen Kai was at the side, Yu Manman would not directly say that she despised Jin Miaowan. What if the other party was Shen Kai's distant cousin or something like that?

"Choose this one. It's plain and simple, just right for you." Yu Manman picked up a coarse hairpin and it was just as she said. It was plain and simple.

Simple and unadorned? Wasn't he saying that his appearance was ordinary? It's just right for that! No matter how good Jin Miaowan was, it was difficult for him to suppress the small volcano in his heart.

But his current appearance was truly not outstanding. Yu Manman did not say anything wrong, no matter how angry Jin Miaowan was, it was difficult to refute.

Shen Kai saw that Jin Miaowan had suffered, and his eyes turned red from anger, even Shen Kai had always thought that Jin Miaowan was an extremely intelligent girl, but she was ridiculed by others for her looks, how could a young lady, who was like a blooming flower, endure?

"This hairpin is not bad, why don't we try this." Shen Kai picked out an exquisite hairpin and directly helped Jin Miaowan wear it, "This hairpin is made with exquisite detail, it looks unremarkable at first glance, but it is extremely pleasing to the eye."

Shen Kai's words held double meanings, as if he was talking about Jin Miaowan. At first glance, he did not look very outstanding, but upon closer inspection, one could see that Jin Miaowan was very pleasant to look at, and very pleasing to the eye.

Hearing Shen Kai's words, Jin Miaowan's heart warmed. Looking at herself in the copper mirror, she saw Shen Kai wearing a hairpin for her, and smiled knowingly, "Okay, I'll listen to you, Boss, how much silver does this hairpin cost, I'll buy it." Then, he looked at Yu Manman proudly.

Shen Kai helped Jin Miaowan, but Yu Manman was not angry at all. They were familiar with each other, and only if Shen Kai saw that Jin Miaowan was angry at him and did not express anything, Yu Manman would be surprised, but she continued to ignore Jin Miaowan's satisfied gaze and stared straight at Shen Kai, and said: "Little brother has some time, can Manman invite little brother to Xinya Pavilion for a cup of tea?"

"No time!" Jin Miaowan immediately refused.

"I didn't ask you!" Yu Manman was also from a pampered family, so she directly said arrogantly.

"Humph!" Xiao Kai, let's go. " Jin Miaowan paid for the hairpin and pulled Shen Kai away.

Shen Kai was directly pulled away and smiled apologetically and funnily at Yu Manman. He was currently Jin Miaowan's bodyguard, and he had to go wherever Jin Miaowan went. Otherwise, how could a weak girl like Jin Miaowan move him?

When Shen Kai was pulled away, he stomped his feet in anger.

Seeing that Yu Manman did not follow him, Jin Miaowan finally let go of Shen Kai's hand. What was going on? She had always been intelligent, so how could she be angered by a girl today … Have you lost your mind? " Jin Miaowan was secretly annoyed.

"What's wrong? Is it because I can't bear to leave? " Jin Miaowan looked at Shen Kai's handsome face that had a smile that was not a smile, and said unhappily.

Knowing that Jin Miaowan was angry at the moment, Shen Kai was not stupid enough to offend her. He shrugged his shoulders a little and narcissistically said, "How could it be? This kind of situation is common, why would they be unwilling to leave! "

"Tch!" Jin Miaowan curled her lips in disdain, she was so amused by Shen Kai's narcissistic look, the anger she had just displayed was mostly gone. Recruiting bees and luring butterflies, I don't know how to restrain myself. " Jin Miaowan complained softly.

There was nothing she could do about it. By Shen Kai's side, even a young miss of Goldstone Trading Company like her would turn into a green leaf and become a servant.
