Ever since the Empire’s wars began to subside, commercial ties between the Night Glow Empire and other countries and regions were restored. Furthermore, with Shen Tang’s intention to expand her business territory, trade between the Empire and neighboring areas became even closer.
"Great, I haven’t gone shopping for a while now, it’s a perfect time to get out and relax." Shen Tang casually picked up a bag.
The Big Black Panther was lounging in the courtyard, basking in the warm sunlight. Upon hearing this, it immediately flipped over and ran over, rubbing its head against Shen Tang’s waist, then grabbed the bag from her hand with its mouth. "Tangtang~ Let me take you, let me tag along, I can even carry your bags!"
Song Fang yawned, "We’re two females going out to have fun, what are you, a male, tagging along for? Don’t spoil the mood!"
Shen Tang always hung around with the Beast Husbands and wanted to have some girly time, so she ignored the pitiful look from the certain panther, patted his big forehead to console him, "Be good, stay at home and watch the house. Fangfang and I are going out to shop, we’ll be back soon."
Xiao Jin snorted angrily, his tail drooping to the ground.
"Tangtang, you’re in a special position, it’s best to have someone for protection." Xue Yinzhou walked over, leaving no room for discussion.
He had been trained as a Hidden Guard since childhood, following her had become a habit, his character was silent and taciturn, his presence was almost negligible, following wouldn’t disturb them.
Song Fang dare to scold Xiao Jin, but she was too scared to confront this cold Snake Beast!
Just one glance from him made her hair stand on end, too frightened to speak, "...Ahem, Tangtang, maybe you should let this Beast Husband accompany you. Oh! I think what you said is right! If something happens, I can’t afford it."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Jin widened his eyes, it’s unfair!
Why let this stinking snake go along and not him?
Lu Xiao came over to smooth things over, "Today happens to be the day for new recruit training, and the Lu Family needs me to go there, why don’t you head to the training ground and lead the soldiers for a while?"
"Sigh~ Alright then." Xiao Jin furiously dug the ground with his claws before reluctantly leaving.
The mall owner and staff saw Shen Tang and Song Fang approaching, their hearts almost leaped out of their chests; they never expected to encounter the Emperor!
"Your Majesty, how come you’re here personally? If there’s anything you want, you can send someone to inform the mall, we’ll personally deliver it!" The mall owner flattered and approached, even his voice trembled despite his worldly experience.
Shen Tang looked at the group of respectful Beastmen before her, feeling a bit emotional. Back then, when she came to the mall, she was looked down upon by everyone. However, now the tide had turned, and they all wanted to curry favor with her.
This made her feel a bit uncomfortable and lost the pleasure of shopping.
"Today I’m just out with friends to have fun and happened to stroll here, no need to get nervous, just treat me like an ordinary customer." Shen Tang spoke softly.
"Yes, yes, yes, we understand... Everyone, stop staring and get back to your tasks!" The owner shooed away the unrelated bystanders and personally attended to them, his service attitude was impeccable.
"Finally, I get to experience borrowing power to intimidate!" Song Fang laughed, whispering, "You have no idea, last time I came, the store staff here looked down their noses at people! You’d think they were gods... Ah, Tangtang, look, this white dress is so pretty, it suits you well!"
Song Fang’s attention was quickly drawn to the beautiful clothes and accessories, pulling Shen Tang into a luxury boutique.
The two young females strolling alone attracted many Beastmen’s attention.
Especially once they recognized Shen Tang’s identity, the Beastmen’s eyes lit up.
On one hand, they were excited and in awe of encountering the Emperor, and on the other, they were captivated by the Majesty’s beauty and charm.
Especially for the unmarried young males, this might be their only chance to appear before the Emperor!
If the Majesty took a liking to them, bringing them into the harem and bestowing favor, their future would surely soar.

Shen Tang blushed slightly, ignoring Song Fang’s teasing look from the side, asked the owner to exchange for the same style in a larger size, and headed to the fitting room.
