Ji Nan walked quietly, whispering, "Princess, someone is following us."
If even Ji Nan noticed someone tailing them, how could Mo Shu not?
Mo Shu responded softly, then acted as if she was unaware, quietly soothing the child in her arms.
The group following behind saw Mo Shu's demeanor and felt even more restless, like cats on a hot tin roof.
The rich merchant grew hotter with every glance and said, "Go bring her to me!"
The subordinates, also filled with longing, quickly rushed forward.
Soon, a group of people surrounded Mo Shu and Ji Nan completely.
"Ma'am, our master has invited you."
Mo Shu, holding the child, appeared not a bit frightened, looked up at them, and casually asked, "Who is your master?"
"Our master is the wealthiest man in nearby Zhou City, surname Duan. Have you ever heard of him?" The one speaking was obviously a bit proud and smug after mentioning the name.
Not just anyone can call themselves the wealthiest!
