One day, Su Luo transmigrated and became the mother of two children. Not only was she mentally deficient, but she was also a widow. The family was destitute, living in an abandoned tile kiln by the...
"Thank you, my benefactor! Thank you, my benefactor! I am willing to serve you like a slave for the rest of my life to repay your kindness."
Yan Qimeng and Yan Chuan quickly helped him up: "Don't kneel anymore, you should go now!"
"Okay! Thank you, thank you all..."
Wang Zhaodi kept thanking her until she had walked away, at which point Yan Qimeng and Yan Chuan got back into the carriage.
"Chen Yanchuan, I never knew you knew medicine. You always surprise me. Is there anything I don't know about you?"
Yan Qimeng had inquired about him thoroughly. He was the son of Prince Yu, and it was understandable that he was highly skilled in martial arts, but she never expected that he would also know medicine.
"I've been exposed to medicine since I was little, so I only know a little bit about it. My sister's medical skills are much better than mine."
But Miss Yan is no slouch either; her arguing skills are even better than one of our former relatives.
"I... I don't think so..."
Yan Qimeng blushed. She was so angry that she was only thinking about standing up for the wronged and didn't care that Yan Chuan was watching her from the side.
"Actually, it was those two who made me angry. I'm not usually like this. Normally, I enjoy music, chess, calligraphy, and painting, and I don't curse people casually."
Yan Qimeng didn't know why, but she suddenly felt flustered and wanted to explain to Yan Chuan. She wasn't a shrew.
"Yes! I understand, Miss Yan..."
Suddenly at that moment, Yan Chuan also found the woman in front of him to be extremely cute.
Upon arriving at Fu Man Lou, the manager, seeing Yan Chuan approach, hurriedly stepped forward to greet him: "Young master, you've arrived. The owner is waiting for you upstairs."
"Okay, you don't need to worry about us."
"yes!"
Yan Qimeng had never been greeted by the manager when she came to Fumanlou before. She had heard that the owner of Fumanlou was a mysterious person.
She also heard from others that Fu Man Lou was backed by a powerful force that no one could shake.
In the entire capital, very few people knew who was behind Fu Man Lou, and naturally, she didn't know either.
"Chen Yanchuan, the person you brought me to see, you wouldn't happen to be that mysterious owner of Fumanlou, would you?"
"Well, didn't you want to build a girls' school? If you can persuade her to help you, then you won't have to worry about funding."
Yan Qimeng was extremely nervous and kept taking deep breaths. The person she was about to meet was the owner of Fumanlou Restaurant, and she absolutely could not miss this opportunity.
"Yanchuan, is the owner of Fumanlou a difficult old man? Will he really help me?"
Yan Chuan found her nervousness both cute and funny.
"Yes, I think you two have similar personalities, you'll definitely get along well. Maybe she also wants to open a girls' school."
Yan Qimeng found it hard to imagine an old man wanting to open a girls' school, but whatever, Fumanlou was all over Nanning, so the old man's clothes must be made of gold.
She would go see the old man no matter what, as long as she had a lot of money.
After following the waiter to the top floor, Yan Chuan and Yan Qimeng pushed open the door and entered a super luxurious private room.
Yan Qimeng had never been to the top floor before, and she never expected that it would be such a hidden gem.
"Brother, why did you take so long to arrive? Do you know how precious my time is? In just a quarter of an hour, I could buy a whole shop in the capital."
After Yi Huan finished speaking, she noticed that there was a girl following Yan Chuan. This was the first time she had ever seen her brother bring a girl to her.
"A guest?"
Yan Qimeng entered and bowed slightly to Yi Huan as a greeting.
Her eyes darted around. Why was there only one woman in the entire private room? Wasn't she supposed to be bringing him to meet the owner of Fu Man Lou?
"Yi Huan, let me introduce you to a friend. This is Prime Minister Yan's second daughter, Yan Qimeng!"
Yi Huan stood up and returned the greeting to Yan Qimeng.
Yan Chuan coughed lightly, bringing Yan Qimeng, who had been lost in thought, back to her senses.
“Miss Yan, this is my sister… Chen Yihuan, one of the owners and the head of Fumanlou!”
Yan Qimeng couldn't believe it: "This...this..."
The owner of Fu Man Lou was not the old man she had imagined, but a very young girl.
She had investigated Chen Yanchuan and found that he did indeed have a twin sister who was only sixteen years old this year, yet she had become the owner behind Fumanlou.
Comparing the two, she suddenly felt that she had accomplished nothing.
"You're the owner of Fumanlou? You're so young to be able to run such a big restaurant, you're amazing."
Yi Huan gestured for both of them to sit down, and they ate and talked at the same time.
"Miss Yan, you flatter me. I am merely managing the family business; there is nothing to boast about."
Miss Yan, you're a guest brought by my brother. I don't know what you like to eat, or whether these dishes suit your taste.
But today is our first meeting, and I don't think Miss Yan is a shy person. She can simply ask the innkeeper to prepare whatever she'd like to eat.
Looking at the table full of delicious food, Yan Qimeng couldn't stop smiling. At Fumanlou Restaurant, her monthly allowance was only enough for three meals. It was rare to see such a luxurious scene.
"No need, no need... this is enough."
Yan Qimeng's gaze fell on Yan Chuan, who was serving food to Yi Huan. He doted on his younger sister.
Yan Chuan felt embarrassed to serve him food, so she placed a plate of Wensi Tofu in front of her.
"Miss Yan, please try this."
"Um!"
Chen Yanchuan, who had just seen him, was both anxious and nervous, and was even secretly laughing.
Yan Qimeng belatedly realized that she had been tricked by Yan Chuan, but now was not the time to argue with her; her current target was Chen Yihuan.
"Yi Huan, although this is our first meeting, I feel like we've known each other forever."
Yi Huan looked at Yan Chuan, then at Yan Qimeng. She had seen countless people in the business world, and in this respect, she was even better at judging people than her brother.
It's clear that Miss Yan in front of me is very fond of her brother.
His own brother also seemed to have no liking for the person in front of him, perhaps without even realizing it himself.
"Miss Yan, do you want me to help you with something? Just say it directly. You are my brother's friend, which means you are my friend too."
With a nervous and embarrassed heart, Yan Qimeng still spoke up and told Yi Huan all her thoughts.
She also recounted how she caused a disturbance at the Imperial College in her attempt to establish a girls' school.
Upon hearing this, Yi Huan couldn't help but laugh.
"So that's how Miss Yan and my brother met. That's quite surprising."
However, what Miss Yan wants to do is what I've always wanted to do too, but..."
Yi Huan put down her chopsticks and faced Yan Qimeng, maintaining a smile on her face.
"But as you can see, Miss Yan, I not only have to run a restaurant, but I also have to travel to various places in Nanning."
Changping soy sauce needs to be promoted to Beiliang and other small countries. I also need to manage the pharmaceutical factory of Ji'antang and Wanxiu Pavilion. I really don't have time to manage the girls' school.
But my brother has already intervened in this matter, so he must agree with Miss Yan's idea. Otherwise, he wouldn't have brought you to see me.
"From now on, Miss Yan can ask my brother for whatever money she needs. He has the authority to decide how much money to keep in our family."
