To avoid extra work, Hua Manman hastily came up with an excuse to go out.
"I just remembered—Tianxiang Pavilion has new cosmetics in stock. I have to go see. If I'm late, all the pretty shades will be sold out."
With that, she stood up and made a show of dashing outside.
Gao Shan hurriedly asked, "What about these ledgers and gift lists?"
Hua Manman brushed him off. "You can handle it."
She practically fled the Prince Mansion.
Si Yun followed behind her, asking curiously.
"My Lady, how did you know Tianxiang Pavilion was getting new cosmetics?"
Hua Manman took a deep sniff. She caught a faint, sweet scent, and a happy smile immediately blossomed on her face.
"I don't know if Tianxiang Pavilion has anything new, but I do know there's something delicious up ahead."
With that, she followed the aroma and hurried forward.
Si Yun followed close behind, calling out a reminder.
"My Lady, slow down! Be careful not to fall."
Hua Manman found a pastry shop nearby.
