Qiao Ruoyi waited for the people from the Marquis Jingwu Manor to leave before she took the thousand taels of silver from the pawnshop and left.
Qiao Ruoyi had something on her mind, so she did not notice Xie Yun, who had brushed past her.
Xie Yun did see Qiao ruoyi, but he thought that he had seen wrongly. He entered the door and asked the manager of the pawnshop, “Was the person who left just now the fifth miss of the Qiao Family?”
“Yes, Master.”
Xie Yun frowned slightly and said, “Today, the imperial court has just paid her salary. Why did she come to the pawnshop to pawn?”
How could the marquis an Yuan’s manor let their daughter be short of silver? Why would she need to come to the pawnshop to pawn?
