Dongfeng Restaurant Private Room
"Knock knock!" The sound of knocking ca from the door, and it was Fuyou’s personal attendant.
"Co in."
"Young master."
"What is it?"
"According to reliable information, Xiangxiang Cloth Shop is helping Fugui look for Xiatian."
Fuyou, holding a teacup, gave it a shake, "Oh? Xiangxiang Cloth Shop? Is it that lady who refused the young master of the Chu Family?"
Hmph, since when did his good brother form such a connection? He really wanted to et this Miss Wang, who was actually helping his good-for-nothing brother.
"Exactly, young master, should we?"
"Keep it discreet, show that girl so colors." A cunning look spread across Fuyou’s face; anyone helping Fugui was crossing him.
"Yes, young master."
Seeing that the attendant hadn’t left yet, Fuyou spoke, "Anything else?"
"Fugui has been farming in the countryside, should we also..."
"Not for now, just let him farm there," Fuyou sneered, curious to see how long his good brother could last in the countryside.
On the road to Yang Family Village, a carriage swiftly passed by. The coachman, seeing a pedestrian walking along the road, shouted into the carriage, "Miss, it’s Young Master Chu, should we give him a ride?"
Inside the carriage, Wang Xiangxiang looked out the window, "That rascal, why is he walking today instead of taking a carriage? That’s really strange."
Truly an omnipresent man, encountering him everywhere.
"No need, let’s just continue on."
"Yes, Miss."
The carriage didn’t stop and simply passed by; Chu Lian on the road had recognized the carriage of the spoiled lady. So, the spoiled lady was also going to Yang Ming’s ho today?
He felt a bit of excitent in his heart, but it was quickly overshadowed by the spoiled lady’s behavior — she instructed her carriage to just drive away without even looking back.
No matter what, they acquainted; why not greet him and give him a ride?
He felt a smoldering annoyance build up inside him. After hearing the news brought by Acheng, he couldn’t sit still and asked the kitchen maid to prepare the ingredients for ’a house full of gold and jade’, packed up his luggage briefly, and hit the road.
It was indeed a bizarre coincident; his karma with them must be sothing carried over from his past life.
As he walked along seething, he suddenly noticed that the carriage ahead had stopped. Was this their conscience acting up, wanting to give him a ride?
He quickly approached, and opening the door was a three-year-old child, "Uncle, are you going to Yang Family Village?"
Caught off guard, Chu Lian, after a pause, responded, "Yes."
The child flashed an innocent smile, "Then get on, we’re going the sa way."
The irritation in Chu Lian’s heart lted away at the lovely child’s face, and he got into the carriage.
After boarding, he saw Wang Xiangxiang sitting there, realizing she was on the carriage all along; but who was this little child?
He wanted to greet her, but seeing her expression turn extrely unpleasant at the sight of him, like she didn’t recognize him, made him swallow his words back.
Neither spoke, the little child, unaware of the situation, excitedly asked, "Uncle, this is my first ti in the countryside, is it fun?"
"The countryside is fun, there are many kids just like you there, and lots of small animals too, like puppies, chicks, ducklings..."
The child bead with an innocent smile, "Really? I can’t wait to see them."
