At Cui Zhu Garden, Su Mei was feeling peppy, having taken to heart Murong Qiqi's advice about thinking more methodically instead of resorting to brute force. Now, she was learning to adopt shrewder tactics too.
"Great!" Murong Qiqi tossed her a creamy-white dragon-shaped jade pendant, "Longze Jingtian still owes me five hundred thousand taels of silver. Go get it back for me. Remember, I only want promissory notes!"
As Su Mei caressed the jade pendant and studied Murong Qiqi, she already knew about Longze Jingtian's encounter with Du Xian'er in the forest. Choosing this time to collect the debt was indeed the most appropriate.
"Miss, I'm on it!" After receiving the order, Su Mei cheerfully left the Prime Minister's House.
When Su Mei showed up at the Jing Royal Mansion, a stranger visited one of the four major families, Bai Mansion.
