Bai Ruozhu hastily said, "No, no, I just want to start a business in town. I saw a good booth to register for. I couldn't bother the officer with this little matter."
Knowing Bai Ruozhu was Bai Zepei's sister and that Bai Zepei and Officer Li are close, Wang Luji enthusiastically led Bai Ruozhu, "Come on, I'll take you to register. It'll be done quickly."
This put Wan Minglu on edge. He had no idea that Wang Luji knew Bai Ruozhu, and as Wang Luji was an official officer, Wan Minglu felt outdone.
"Alright, thank you, Brother Wang." Bai Ruozhu smiled at Wang Luji.
Now, Wan Minglu was even more anxious. He ran between the two and with a strained smile said, "Brother Wang, aren't you busy? She and I are from the same town, I can take her."
Wang Luji, unaware of Wan Minglu's thoughts, furrowed his brows, thinking to himself, 'Does this newcomer also want to impress Officer Li and build connections? Can he compete with me, as a certified official?'
