All Worlds Beg the Villainess to Act Like a Human
Chapter 350: The Abused Female Lead Awakens (26)
"I need a small kitchen."
Jing Lingyu glared at Qiann Yan, full of anger, especially since he heard that she took away ten thousand taels. It made him even angrier.
He wasn’t short of ten thousand taels of silver, but that the silver was used by Cheng Qianyan, this venomous woman, made him displeased!
Qiann Yan wasn’t too concerned about Jing Lingyu’s twisted face full of hatred towards her. She continued, "You arrange for someone to get it done for me."
The way she spoke, with such entitlement, Jing Lingyu wanted to jump up and slap her.
But he couldn’t!
He had to suppress his anger, lest his wound would tear open.
"Don’t you think your demands are excessive?"
"Never seen anyone with as many demands as you."
Every word that Jing Lingyu spat out was through gritted teeth: "You previously took ten thousand taels. You can use that silver to get someone to make a small kitchen for you. It should be more than enough."
"I already spent it," Qiann Yan said. "Enough with the nonsense; quickly find someone to do it."
Jing Lingyu took a deep breath, then another, his hands hidden under the covers tightly gripping the bedsheet. He was really afraid he couldn’t hold back and would just jump over and punch her.
"That was ten thousand taels! And you spent it so quickly?" Jing Lingyu was furious. He couldn’t even spend it that fast himself!
"Since you didn’t delegate anyone to me, I bought a few people to use," Qiann Yan replied. "Don’t think too much about it; quickly set up the small kitchen. I heard some concubines in the Imperial Palace have small kitchens. I’m even planning to go to the palace to inquire about how to set it up..."
"Servants!" Jing Lingyu shouted towards the door. Two people immediately rushed in, "Go find someone to build a small kitchen for the Princess Consort."
After giving the order, Jing Lingyu gazed at Qiann Yan as if to say, hurry up and leave.
Qiann Yan didn’t linger, nor did she waste words, turning and leaving.
"Cheng Qianyan, don’t be complacent. I’m going along with you for now only because of my wounds. Once I’m healed, I’ll make you suffer endlessly."
"We’ll see."
What Jing Lingyu didn’t know was, Qiann Yan went to the accountant again, took out the Jade Token that had not been returned, and withdrew another Fifty Thousand taels.
"What, the Jade Token is here, do you have any questions?" Qiann Yan coldly glanced at the hesitant accountant.
The accountant wanted to say something, but Qiann Yan said, "Then come with me to see the Prince." 𝓯𝓻𝓮𝙚𝙬𝓮𝙗𝒏𝙤𝒗𝙚𝙡.𝒄𝒐𝓶
Seeing Qiann Yan so fearless, the accountant didn’t dare provoke her, quickly fetching the money for her. In fact, the Prince Mansion didn’t lack such an amount, but since the Prince wasn’t very fond of the Princess Consort before, it made people very hesitant.
Now, with no managerial power in the Princess Consort’s hands, it made things very subtle.
Qiann Yan wasn’t interested in any managerial power, had no interest in helping Jing Lingyu manage this broken Prince Mansion. When it was time to spend money, she’d just come to fetch it.
Who told this person to plead with the emperor to marry her? This was self-inflicted, wasn’t it?
Returning to her room with a stack of silver notes, Qiann Yan took out one and handed it to Wu Zhi, along with a piece of paper with countless medicine names written on it: "Go to the pharmacy and buy according to what’s written."
Wu Zhi’s hands trembled, not expecting the master to trust him so much. He immediately promised to handle it diligently.
Again, only Qiann Yan was left in the room, and she continued her exercises.
Qiao Xin didn’t approach her, not knowing where she ran off to, and she had no intention of looking. After provoking Jing Lingyu multiple times today, she wondered if he would take any action.
"Did you say she bought a pretty woman and sent her to the kitchen to cook?" Jing Lingyu asked incredulously.
"Yes, master, that woman’s appearance is not inferior to the Princess Consort, reportedly bought for six thousand taels."
Jing Lingyu was astonished.
"That woman is skilled in all arts—music, chess, literature, and painting, yet the Princess Consort sent her to cook. It’s unclear what she means by this."
