Chapter 221: Teasing the Dandy (9)
"You're also named Su? Haha, maybe we were one family five hundred years ago." Su Luo smiled and patted his shoulder. "Alright, lead the way. It's still early today, let's take a good look around this raw materials market."
"Oh right, you saw me having a conflict with that brocade-robed young master just now, didn't you?" As they walked, Su Luo suddenly seemed to remember something and asked Su Xiaoyuan casually.
"Yes, I did see it just now, and I also know that brocade-robed young master. Is Miss asking about his identity?" Xiaoyuan asked seriously.
Indeed, this child wasn't stupid. He observed and carefully screened his customers rather than rushing up to ask questions recklessly.
"Mm, tell me about him," Su Luo said calmly.
Unable to discern the customer's mood, Xiaoyuan straightened his expression and said seriously, "Speaking of which, that brocade-robed young master comes from a very prominent background. I heard his surname is Liu, and he's the Second Young Master of Prime Minister Liu's family, named Liu Chengfeng. Miss should be careful to avoid him in the future. They say he's narrow-minded and holds grudges."
In his opinion, a young master from the Prime Minister's family was an extremely noble existence, someone to be admired from afar.
Su Luo raised an eyebrow slightly. Liu Chengfeng? The Second Young Master of Prime Minister Liu's family?
Why did the name Prime Minister Liu sound so familiar?
Suddenly, a flash of inspiration struck Su Luo, and it finally surfaced.
Liu Ruohua!
Wasn't Liu Ruohua the Third Miss of Prime Minister Liu's residence? So Liu Chengfeng was actually her older brother?
Heh heh, indeed, like attracts like. Both second-generation members of Prime Minister Liu's family had formed grudges with her. It seemed her fate clashed with the Liu family.
However, speaking of Liu Ruohua, Su Luo suddenly remembered something.
That day, when she returned to her courtyard, Su Wan had rushed over with her cheap old man. At that time, Su Wan was certain that she hadn't returned. So, who had told Su Wan that she hadn't returned?
Furthermore, who had been so certain that she and His Highness Prince Jin had gone to the Sunset Mountain Range? And even said she had a conflict with Fairy Yaochi?
Who was this person… it was practically screaming out at her.
Liu Ruohua. Besides her, there was no one else.
Heh heh, so, how much did Liu Ruohua participate in the matter of Su Wan hiring black-clothed assassins to try and violate her in the middle of the night? It seemed very necessary to go back and have a good moon-gazing chat with Su Wan, who was locked up in the Meditation Courtyard. Thinking of this, Su Luo's lips curved slightly.
Speaking of which, Su Xiaoyuan was indeed a local expert here. After navigating through winding alleys, he led Su Luo to an ancient and worn-out old street.
He pointed to an old courtyard house and said to Su Luo, "Miss, this is Old Chen's place. Old Chen's place has the most abundant and highest-grade goods among the hidden shops. Of course, the prices are also high."
Su Luo scanned the surroundings.
It seemed a bit remote and desolate here, with few people around and very few passing by; it looked rather deserted.
However, this did have the feel of a hidden shop.
Just like in Su Luo's previous life, the most authentic local delicacies weren't in the bustling downtown areas but were often located in inconspicuous places. Tourists just passing through would often fail to find them without a guide.
Su Xiaoyuan's small knuckles tapped on the door with a 'knock, knock, knock', three long and two short, very rhythmic.
Before long, the door creaked open.
An old face, wrinkled like orange peel, appeared at the door. It was full of wrinkles, the eyes were cloudy, and the hair was white, making the person look as if they were eighty or ninety years old.
