Protagonist:
Yan Qianqian
Yan Qianqian was the first to break the silence, asking softly, "Are you used to living here?"
Luo Shun quickly replied, "Everything is fine, thank you for your concern, Qianqian."
Next, Luo Shun hesitated for a moment, then mustered his courage to say, "Qianqian, I have something I want to discuss with you. I want to move out and live on my own, but I'm a bit tight on money right now and don't have enough silver. Could you lend me some first? I'll definitely earn money and pay you back as soon as possible."
Qianqian looked at him with some confusion and asked, "Isn't it fine living in Jie'er's courtyard? Why do you suddenly want to move out?"
Luo Shun felt a bit embarrassed and scratched his head, explaining, "After all, I'm just a guest; how could I stay here long-term? Besides, I came here in a hurry today, and I didn't expect your family's circumstances to be so good."
"I really don't know what gifts to buy for Uncle and Auntie. I didn't even buy any gifts, and yet I want to stay here long-term—this is truly too rude."
The more he spoke, the more embarrassed he felt, and a blush inevitably rose to his face.
Seeing this, Qianqian understood his awkward situation and said with a smile, "Alright, I understand. I'll arrange for you to move out shortly."
"As for the money, you don't need to worry about it for now. I've said before that I hope you can rely on your own abilities to achieve success in the imperial examinations. I believe you have that ability, so this afternoon I'll arrange for you to move out as soon as possible."
"You just need to focus on your studies. After you achieve success on the Golden List and make a name for yourself, it won't be too late to serve me then."
"Right now, the most important thing for you is to achieve success in the imperial examinations. You absolutely must not waste your precious time on trivial matters like earning money. There will be plenty of opportunities for you to show your talents and earn money in the future."
Listening to these words, Luo Shun was deeply moved in his heart, unable to express it.
He knew very well in his heart that given his current situation, he truly could not refuse Qianqian's kindness. All he could do was bury himself in hard study, hoping that one day he would have the ability to help Qianqian.
Therefore, he said nothing more, but silently kept Qianqian's words in his heart.
And Qianqian did exactly as she said; that very afternoon she sent someone to find a suitable residence.
The location of this residence was excellent, just one street away from An Wangfu. The reason Qianqian arranged it this way was nothing more than concern for Luo Shun's safety.
After all, although Luo Shun had once struggled in the military camp, besides possessing an indomitable will to complete his daily arduous training, he had little martial skill of his own.
So, Qianqian specifically instructed the Anqi to find a place closer to her own, so she could look after Luo Shun at any time.
You must know that in a place like Kyoto, every inch of land was worth its weight in gold, especially near An Wangfu, where land prices were outrageously high.
Luo Shun didn't even dare to imagine how much silver Qianqian had spent on this residence.
The worry in his heart grew stronger and stronger, as if the heavy debt was already pressing on his shoulders, leaving him somewhat breathless.
However, Qianqian seemed not to notice his unease, and still led him toward the residence's entrance with great enthusiasm.
When Luo Shun finally stood before the residence's door, he couldn't help but stare wide-eyed, stunned by the sight before him.
This residence was grand in scale; although its area wasn't as large as An Wangfu, it was half its size! His chin almost dropped in shock, and he waved his hands repeatedly, his voice filled with obvious alarm: "This won't do, this won't do! This residence is too big; I can't afford to live here. I only need a small room. How much money would a residence this large cost!"
However, Qianqian paid no mind to his reaction and smiled to comfort him: "Just rest assured living here; don't worry about the cost. This residence is actually my property; you living here doesn't need to cost a penny."
After hearing Qianqian's words, the stone in Luo Shun's heart finally fell, but he also felt very surprised. He never expected that Qianqian actually possessed such vast property.
