Chapter 40: Kissed by Sister Zi! Is this reward you’re talking about?
Upon seeing the shocked expressions of the two, Li Mo knew he had guessed correctly. The shocked look in Sister Zi’s eyes even revealed a hint of fear.
Just as Nongyu thought, he had no hints at all, not even a direction for guesswork. How did he manage to guess it? Or is it that he can truly foresee the future? If that’s the case, then wouldn’t everyone have no secrets in front of him!
Nongyu was completely dumbfounded! Staring blankly at Li Mo, feeling her brain completely empty. The room fell into a brief silence, and it was only after a while that Sister Zi reacted.
Picking up the fallen tea cup on the table, her gaze seemed a bit unnatural.
“I’m sorry, Sister Zi lost her composure.”
Not just her, anyone here would probably lose their composure. Because this is simply too unbelievable.
“It’s alright, Miss Nongyu, do you want to ask me how I guessed it?”
After Li Mo finished speaking, Nongyu rounded her mouth, opening and closing her red lips, apparently having something to say.
After Li Mo finished speaking, she nodded a few times, as if she couldn’t say anything due to the shock. Li Mo smiled slightly and calmly said, “Actually, it’s not as miraculous as you both imagined, I just also felt that the business in the store hasn’t been doing well recently.”
Sister Zi obviously didn’t quite believe this answer. Even if you felt it, how did you know that I asked you to come because I wanted to ask about this?
“Although that’s the case, Sister Zi still doesn’t understand how Sir managed to predict it.”
Just like how Sister Zi couldn’t imagine how Li Mo knew she was planning to change the name of the store. Li Mo succinctly responded, “Because it’s the day for the final accounts, the business in the store has been declining, but the number of people coming to listen to the stories hasn’t decreased.”
“Madam Zi must be curious why their interest in listening to readings hasn’t decreased, but their interest in the ladies has declined.”
“So, she wanted to ask me to find out the reason, in order to compare and see where the problem lies.”
“Actually, there are many reasons why Madam Zi wanted to see me, this was just the most likely possibility at this time.”
“I boldly made a guess, got lucky, and guessed right.”
In fact, there is one important reason Li Mo didn’t mention. That is the stack of bamboo slips on the table. Even though the bamboo slips are rolled up, Li Mo’s perception allows him to fully understand the content layer by layer through the bamboo pieces.
He “saw” that the bamboo slips recorded the accounts for this month. This is a private room, not Sister Zi’s room, and she wouldn’t do office work here. The total account bamboo slips would appear here, and calling himself over has to do with these accounts.
Adding that to the previous information, the answer wasn’t difficult to guess. Sister Zi and Nongyu glanced at each other, both seeing surprise in each other’s eyes.
“So that’s it, Sir may not have visual sense, but his mind is even more delicate than an ordinary person’s, Sister Zi admires it sincerely.” Sister Zi genuinely admired this level of acuity, something not everyone possesses.
Li Mo smiled and said, “Since I guessed correctly, shouldn’t the reward for Miss Zi also be fulfilled?”
Miss Zi is a small rich woman. Although business in her shop was a bit slow last month, she has more than one way to make money.
Her reward must start at three or four pieces of gold at least.
Just casually talking can earn a few pieces of gold.
Li Mo felt pleased in his heart!
Sister Zi’s beautiful eyes were filled with a strange light.
As she poured tea for herself and Li Mo again, she softly said, “Naturally, Sister Zi dares not deceive everyone, let alone deceive you, sir.”
She slowly pushed the tea towards Li Mo.
Li Mo reached out to take it.
But at that moment, a faint smile appeared on Miss Zi’s lips, and she moved the tea cup back slightly.
Li Mo was stunned, what does this mean?
He leaned forward, but before he could move, a fragrant wind suddenly rushed towards his face.
Then two soft, wet, and warm touches landed on his forehead.
“How about this reward?”
The slightly nervous voice of Miss Zi came from the other side.
Li Mo was dumbfounded.
Are you trying to make me lean over to let you kiss me?
Next to them, Nongyu’s eyes nearly popped out!
Hey, sister, I’m still here!
She was shocked as if an earthquake had happened. Is this really the Miss Zi she knows?
The one who, despite being alluring, is purer than anyone else in the mortal world?
“Before you told me that men are all no good, why are you now sending yourself up?”
The slightly blushing Miss Zi glanced at her, and Nongyu immediately turned her head away.
Very tactfully showing that she didn’t see anything just now!
