The Royal Family’s Number One Silkpants

"Your highness, you were wrong just now. In terms of human speech here, remembering a debt is used for wanting to seek revenge."

Jun Ci: "..."

She coughed once. "That isn't important, the important point is that I have some money now. Gu Lu, help me investigate the places around here and see if there are any cheap rentals. With the value of houses here, I believe I can rent a small room and barely make do with it."

There was no choice since she was poor.

It truly was...

A despairing fact.

"But Your Highness, don't you think that you'll suffocate if the room isn't at least 3 meters high in terms of height?"

"...Gu Lu, we have to be practical."

She truly felt suffocated and stifled, but she was poor. What else could she do?

Being poor had forced her to view things in a different perspective.

Being poor was enough to change a person's habits.

"Gu Lu has found it. There is a suitable place about 300 meters away from you. Gu Lu has mapped out the route for Your Highness."

"It's a single room with a shower and kitchen, and is relatively clean. The landlords are an old couple that are not too bad. The room was just emptied out yesterday, and the rent is 300 dollars a month. You have to pay for your own electricity and water, but it is the cheapest rental around here. It also has a quiet environment suitable for Your Highness to write in."

Fortunately for her, she had the omnipotent Gu Lu with her. Gu Lu was her blessing within her demise.

Jun Ci sighed again.

"Thank you, Your Higness, for the compliment."

Gu Lu sensed the change in Jun Ci's mind and thanked her earnestly.

"Don't mention it, Gu Lu."

According to Gu Lu's 360 degrees unobstructed map, Jun Ci would arrive at the destination in just two minutes.

The outside was a family store.

It was one of the many common grocery stores in the small city.

It was so small that there was only a small passageway by the wall that went further in. From there, Jun Ci discovered a small courtyard further inside.

It was an old granny managing the store. She smiled amiably. "Young lad, do you want to buy something?"

Jun Ci resembled more of a guy now, thus was naturally recognized as one.

Jun Ci did not correct her and replied, "Hello Grandmother, are you renting a room here? I am here to rent a room."

There were two types of people that Jun Ci respected in the world.

One was his own mother.

The second were the elderly.

Elderly worth respecting.

That was the reason for her speech being more polite.

The old granny heard Jun Ci's relaxing tone of voice and was inwardly surprised. "How did you know that? The tenant just moved out yesterday, and the old man hasn't even put up any advertisements yet."

"I overheard about it."

Jun Ci thought her reason was good and smiled.

The old granny looked at Jun Ci who was currently carrying a book and a bag.

Despite Jun Ci's straight back and somewhat faint power, the old granny was able to sense her deeply concealed predicament.

Her heart immediately softened. "You wish to rent? Come in and take a look then. Come, follow me in."

Jun Ci eased up. Upon hearing the old granny's affectionate words, she was reminded of her own pitiful mother.

But she quickly gathered her thoughts up.

No matter what, she could no longer see her mother.

She was now the Jun Ci of this era. She had to make the best out of it.

It could not be worse than when she was in the royal family.

Otherwise, she would not be living up to her reputation of being the royal family's number one silkpants [1]!
