Because everyone knows how landlords become landlords.
Just like loving someone because you love their house, hating someone can lead to hating their family. This is similar to how people dislike salespeople and therefore dislike salespeople, because the two are intertwined.
Everyone dislikes landlords, so naturally they will dislike the landlords' children.
Because they rarely had the opportunity to come into contact with the landlord's children, their impression of the landlord's children remained at the stage of dislike.
However, this situation is not without the possibility of change.
The key is a shift in mindset. It's not about turning what you hate into what you like, but rather turning what you hate into what you don't hate so much, and only then turning what you don't hate so much into what you like.
And merchants in the Cretaceous region are making that shift.
No one dislikes a well-mannered person; no one resists them. There is no arrogance or condescension, only genuine concern from the heart.
Anne gazed intently at the young ladies in the church, who held up letters and exuded youthful energy.
Gentle and beautiful, well-mannered, curious about everything yet maintaining a polite distance, possessing extremely high emotional intelligence, she doesn't deliberately ignore the other person's flaws, nor does she bluntly point them out. When she goes out, she only carries an umbrella, without making a big fuss, and she doesn't disturb the residents' lives, walking naturally on the street.
In contrast, the vast majority of royalty and nobility are like filth in a sewer; no matter how beautiful their appearance, it cannot conceal the stench within them.
...He didn't even have any interest in performing.
She couldn't possibly dislike these kind, considerate, and unpretentious young ladies.
It's absolutely impossible that she simply doesn't dislike these young ladies.
She asked herself honestly, and she liked these young ladies; this was how royalty should be.
Consequently, her dislike for the businessmen who raised such a group of pampered young ladies also decreased considerably.
Anne glanced at Anne, who was looking thoughtfully in the direction of the young ladies, sighed softly, and leaned back in her wheelchair.
"No matter how ugly and greedy a person is, they will die one day. Everything they have will be inherited. Will they rot even more completely, or will beautiful flowers grow from the rot..."
"Unfortunately, it wasn't the vast majority of people who made the choice, but rather the rotten ones."
Li Yili, who had been watching Ashley's gaze closely, easily found Ashley's letter among the colorful letters. It was a white letter with brown patterns. Every time his hand approached the letter, Ashley would excitedly raise her head; every time his hand missed the letter, Ashley would lower her head in disappointment. Because this reaction was so amusing, he did it many times. The innocent young lady did not notice that his behavior was no different from a prank, and she repeatedly wavered between excitement and disappointment.
Li Yili's pranks continued until only one letter remained in the basket.
"Ahem—" Li Yili, who already knew who the letter belonged to, coughed lightly, picked up the letter, and shook it.
"This is mine—" Ashley, who was hanging and almost unconscious, rushed forward impatiently, but she did not do anything as impolite as stealing the letter. Instead, she stretched out her fair little hand and stared pitifully at Li Yili.
"it is good--"
Li Yili shook the letter in her hand and gently placed it in Ashley's hand.
"Thank you," Ashley, oblivious to Li Yili's ill intentions, hugged the letter to her chest, bowed, and thanked Li Yili. She then turned around and peeked at the other young ladies who were secretly reading their letters with their backs to others. She looked around again, trying to find a place where no one else could see the contents of her letter.
“Miss Ashley, I have a letter here from Mr. Dante,” Li Yili tossed the basket behind her to Rebecca, “and one more thing.”
The young ladies, who were still reading the replies, paused and turned slightly to look in the direction of Li Yili and Ashley.
Noticing the gazes of the other young ladies, Ashley blushed slightly, turned around, tugged at her sleeve, and nodded slightly, "Thank you for your trouble."
“No trouble at all,” Li Yili grinned, pulling out the letter containing the Venetian merchant's message and handing it to Ashley. “It’s my pleasure, and there’s also a message from Mr. Dante. Should I deliver it here, or…”
The young ladies, who had been watching the situation closely, swarmed around Ashley, shouting in unison, "Of course, it's here!"
"You guys—" Ashley's face turned even redder, and she reached out to push her best friend's face away, but the movement wasn't too big.
Annie and Rebecca looked at Li Yili with subtle expressions.
They didn't remember Dante sending any message. In fact, under Li Yili's attack, Dante wasn't so confident about the content of his reply and his handling of the matter. He was even a little guilty. In this state, Dante was very cautious, afraid of escalating Ashley's dissatisfaction with him. He would never take the initiative to attack if he could avoid doing so.
Therefore, there is absolutely no possibility that Dante secretly asked Li Yili to pass on a message.
Even if he secretly asked someone to pass on a message, Dante would never ask Li Yili to do so.
"Ahem—my beloved Miss Ashley—"
Li Yili drew out her voice, and the young ladies followed suit, some even standing on tiptoe.
"Oh dear? What came next? But Dante said a lot, let me sort it out a bit."
Facing the expectant gazes of the young ladies, Li Yili raised her hand to rub her temples and then shrugged innocently.
"Eh--"
The young ladies all voiced their disbelief and complaints.
"I'm sorry, I've been walking for a long time and I'm hungry and tired, so my memory is a bit muddled," Li Yili blinked.
"Ah...this is indeed a difficult problem."
"I went hungry once, and I felt like I was completely out of my mind."
"The messenger is so pitiful."
The young ladies all believed Li Yili's nonsense, their faces full of sympathy, and some even began to rummage through their pockets for the candy they carried.
Ashley puffed out her cheeks in dissatisfaction. She felt sorry for Li Yili, who was tired and hungry, but Li Yili had been whetting her appetite to the heavens. Li Yili suddenly said that she couldn't remember clearly. She could accept it rationally, but not emotionally, so Ashley decided to convey her dissatisfaction with her eyes.
“If I hadn’t brought so many letters, I probably wouldn’t be this hungry,” Li Yili said, raising her hand to her forehead and taking a few steps back as if she could not stand steadily. At the same time, she secretly glanced at the sulking Ashley.
Just as Dante said, Ashley was an innocent and kind girl. His excuse was fake, and his acting was even more fake, but Ashley and the other young ladies believed him.
“I’d probably feel better if I had steak,” Li Yili said, holding up her finger.
"Scumbag—"
Rebecca couldn't help but mutter something under her breath.
Chapter Ninety-Two: One more bite and my memory will return.
This is a very common story development.
The innocent and kind-hearted young lady is always curious about all sorts of things, and she always trusts the people who bring her all sorts of things and satisfy her curiosity.
The innocent young lady will always encounter a conman who sees through her innocence and harbors ill intentions.
"Hmm~ The highest grade steak in the chalk circle, I feel like my memory is starting to come back."
Beautiful music, exquisite carvings, a comfortable layout, efficient butlers, and mirror-like gleaming silver cutlery make up the most luxurious restaurant in the Chalk Circle. The beautiful young ladies gathered there, like blooming flowers, add youth and vitality to this top-notch restaurant.
Li Yili enjoyed all of this like a king.
"Really? That's wonderful!"
The young ladies, led by Ashley, were completely oblivious to Li Yili's "sinister intentions," and even worried that the food here wouldn't suit Li Yili's taste. Meanwhile, Annie watched everything unfold with incredibly mixed feelings.
The kind and emotionally intelligent young ladies naturally wouldn't just invite Li Yili to dinner alone. As Li Yili's companions, they were also invited to the table and received steaks of the same size as Li Yili's.
The enticing aroma stimulated Annie's taste buds. It would be a lie to say she didn't want to eat it, but Annie was conflicted about whether or not to eat the food that Li Yili had "tricked" her into giving her.
Annie glanced to her left, where Rebecca, who had been muttering Li Yili as scum, was now eating her steak with a rather unrestrained manner. Even Aditi was engrossed in eating her steak. Annie then glanced to her right, where Li Yili, though not eating steak, was holding a silver fork and waving it around like a conductor, piquing the curiosity of the young ladies.
The young ladies seemed to be enjoying themselves.
That's normal; young ladies who have no worries about food and drink often crave this kind of thing.
It seemed that she was the only one who was worried.
After hesitating for a while, Annie gave up thinking about it; at least, the steak wasn't wrong.
“Oh~ I remembered something,” Li Yili cut off a piece of steak and gently shook it.
The young ladies' eyes lit up, and many of them excitedly moved forward.
"Tell me quickly, tell me quickly—"
"Hmm~ Ladies, let me think. Although some of my memories have returned, they are not what Mr. Dante asked me to convey."
"Eh--"
Before the young ladies could finish complaining, Li Yili changed her tone.
“But I remembered what Mr. Dante had said about Miss Ashley,” Li Yili winked at the disgruntled young ladies. “Ladies, are you interested?”
Ashley blushed, annoyed that Li Yili had once again piqued her interest. She opened her mouth, but was immediately covered by several young ladies around her and dragged back inside.
"Interested! Interested!"
Clearly, the young ladies were more concerned about Dante's usual evaluation of Ashley than about Dante's specific instructions.
Anne perked up her ears.
“Ahem—first of all, Mr. Dante always begins his references to Miss Ashley with ‘my beloved Miss Ashley,’” Li Yili smiled slightly.
After a brief silence, the young ladies transformed into a train and roared at Ashley.
Amidst the cheers of her friends, Ashley's face turned as red as a ripe apple, and her jewel-like eyes sparkled.
"Stop this! Stop talking!"
Anne nodded.
That's not wrong. Every time Dante mentions Ashley, he starts with "my beloved Miss Ashley".
"Secondly—ha—I'm a little tired, and my memory feels a bit blurry again."
"Eh--"
Despite saying she didn't want to say anything more, Ashley was the most disappointed when she heard that Li Yili's memory was a little hazy.
“How about we start by telling the story that Mr. Dante wrote for Miss Ashley?” Li Yili held up her finger and waved it from side to side.
"Yes—Mr. Dante has written a new story!"
"Ashley, hurry up and get the letter out!"
The young ladies immediately looked excitedly at Ashley.
Today was a lucky day for them, because so many new things appeared before them. Although Li Yili was sitting at the table, it was actually them who were enjoying the delicious food, so they didn't care about the order or intend to wolf it down.
Ashley, on the other hand, was a little annoyed. She was more interested in Dante's usual opinion of her, but her friends were tugging at her sleeves, half-coaxing and half-forcing her to take out the letter.
Having no other choice, Ashley reluctantly took out the letter and, under the expectant gazes of the young ladies, pulled out the Venetian Merchant.
Seeing that the young ladies' attention had all shifted to The Merchant of Venice in Ashley's book, Li Yili leisurely began to eat her steak, while glancing at the seats near the restaurant entrance.
The young ladies' butlers were gathered there, scrutinizing him with rather sharp eyes, and even though they noticed his gaze, they made no attempt to look away.
Li Yili smiled calmly, turned her head, and slowly used a fork to hold the steak in place. With her left hand, she held the knife in reverse and slowly pushed it into the steak, dividing it into four parts in circles.
