Just while that fierce woman wasn’t around, she had to quickly win over Headmaster Song.
However, she accounted for Lin Yuan’s absence but forgot that Chanyin Pavilion still had another boss.
"Whoa! Whose important person is this, coming to our Chanyin Pavilion to perform? It’s really rare! I wonder how much this important person will charge our Chanyin Pavilion for an appearance fee, a tael? Or a copper coin?"
As soon as Yan Ruchun’s mocking voice fell, it imdiately drew a burst of laughter from the surrounding people.
The important person, huh? Used to be the important person at Liangli Garden, but now, can only count as a street rat!
"This kind of important person, even qualified to perform at Chanyin Pavilion? Don’t even talk about a copper coin, not even half, I wouldn’t give it!"
"Exactly, doesn’t even asure their own abilities. Is Chanyin Pavilion a place for soone like you?"
Most people who ca to Chanyin Pavilion to listen to performances were wonfolk from influential families in the Capital city, and due to their status, they certainly wouldn’t utter anything too unpleasant.
But to speak sarcastically like this, was already the biggest insult they could offer to Li Li.
There wasn’t a single dirty word, but hearing it was even more uncomfortable for Li Li than if they had cursed her out.
In the future, she would rely on these noble people to make a living, and now everyone looked at her like this. Even if she truly wished to stay at Chanyin Pavilion, her days ahead wouldn’t be any better.
Li Li bowed her head, biting her lip hard, worry etching multiple wrinkles on her face.
If anyone hated Li Li the most, surely no one present would surpass Yan Ruchun. Even if Lin Yuan were here, she might not have this level of intense dislike.
Back then, Li Li had angered Lin Yuan so much that she nearly had a miscarriage, and afterward, Li Li secretly perford at Chanyin Pavilion, making her even more infuriated.
Chanyin Pavilion was her very first establishnt, with all her efforts poured into it, and anyone threatening it was like stabbing her in the heart with a knife!
"Li Li, why have you co to our Chanyin Pavilion today? Don’t tell you’ve regretted it and want to return! Hmph, what do you take our Chanyin Pavilion for, a place you can co and go as you please? Ha, if we let you do whatever you want, would we even be able to run Chanyin Pavilion as a business?!"
Although Li Li’s acting skills weren’t bad, compared to Yan Ruchun’s sharp tongue, they were slightly inferior.
Back then, none of the won in the Capital city wanted to be close to Yan Ruchun because of her sharp tongue. Now that Li Li had run into Yan Ruchun, there was no way she would escape unscathed.
"Miss Yan, I, I know I was wrong, please..."
"Know you’re wrong?"
Before Li Li could finish, Yan Ruchun raised an eyebrow, as if hearing a funny joke: "Since you know you’re wrong, why co back? Aren’t you afraid of repeating your mistakes?"
Ugh!
Li Li was stuck. She ant she knew leaving Chanyin Pavilion was wrong, not that returning was wrong!
"This, that..."
Li Li was rendered speechless, her previously eloquent mouth beca clumsy and stiff in front of Headmaster Song, with no room for her acting skills.
Yan Ruchun waved her hand, finding it redundant to even glance at Li Li: "Alright, if you’re not here for anything significant, leave quickly! With your current reputation, our Chanyin Pavilion dares not to keep you long."
Poof!
Soone among the onlookers couldn’t help but laugh, prompting everyone to follow with a chuckle.
They really didn’t laugh on purpose; it was just that Yan Ruchun’s fly-swatting deanor was too amusing.
With everyone laughing, no matter how thick-skinned Li Li was, she didn’t dare linger any longer. Wiping her tears, she stood up quickly and slipped out.
"Tell the ones at the door not to let just anyone into the garden!"
Yan Ruchun disdainfully glanced at Li Li’s retreating figure, huffing before returning to her elegant room.
However, for Li Li, there was no ’next ti’ because, upon returning to Liangli Garden, she found she was already holess.
Two seals were affixed to the door of Liangli Garden, with several young workers who had been chased out standing by the entrance, discussing sothing.
"What’s going on? How could this happen?"
It was perfectly fine when she left; how did it turn into such a situation as soon as she returned?
