Su Huaiyue died suddenly from staying up late writing her thesis! Before she could even lament being a young genius envied by the heavens, she found herself transmigrated to a vast, boundless deser...
Jing Zhiwan was disappointed to see Wei Che refused the invitation to the flower viewing banquet, but she still didn't want to give up the opportunity to be with him.
Her eyes rolled, and a sweet smile immediately blossomed on her face. She said affectionately, "Master Wei, since you're not going to the flower viewing banquet, let's go back to the Beauty Pavilion together. I felt my skin was a little dry when I woke up today, so I wanted to go to the Beauty Pavilion to get it fixed."
As she spoke, she tilted her head slightly, her eyes full of anticipation, and she seemed completely unaware of the subtle helplessness in Wei Che's eyes.
Wei Che really couldn't refuse anymore, so he could only nod slightly and respond politely: "Then let's do as Miss Jing wishes."
His voice was steady, but his slightly furrowed brows betrayed his inner reluctance.
The two came to the Meiyan Pavilion. As soon as they stepped into the store, they saw Su Huaiyue walking out from the inner room. She was holding a piece of paper in her hand, and her face was filled with uncontrollable joy.
Su Huaiyue paused slightly when she saw Wei Che and Jing Zhiwan, then walked over to them with a smile: "Miss Jing, why are you back again? Did you forget something?"
Her eyes swept between the two of them, with some doubts in her heart, but more of an eagerness to share her joy with Wei Che.
Wei Che's gaze fell on Su Huaiyue, a trace of concern flashing in his eyes. He cleared his throat slightly and tried to make his tone sound casual: "Sister-in-law, you seem to be in such a good mood. Is the cooperation with Liu Yun Pavilion going smoothly?"
He leaned forward slightly, seemingly observing Su Huaiyue's expression casually, but in his heart he was very concerned about her answer.
Su Huaiyue nodded excitedly, her eyes sparkling as if they were filled with stars. "Well, the cooperation talks with Chu Yanci went very smoothly! He's very satisfied with the beauty cream and has agreed to let the girls try it. He even asked me to write instructions for use. If the effect is good, Meiyan Pavilion will definitely be able to open up a larger market through this!"
As she spoke, she gestured unconsciously, and the smile on her face became brighter.
Jing Zhiwan watched Su Huaiyue's beaming expression from the side, the corners of her mouth slightly raised, revealing a seemingly sincere smile: "Sister Su is really amazing. She negotiated a cooperation agreement so quickly. It seems that this Meiyan Pavilion will become more and more prosperous in the future. Sister Su, don't forget us who helped you when the time comes."
There was a subtle hint of sarcasm in her tone, with the ending tone rising slightly.
Su Huaiyue heard something strange, but at the moment her heart was filled with joy of cooperation. She just frowned slightly and didn't pay much attention to it.
Jing Zhiwan continued, "Sister Su, I heard there's a boating event on Tang Lake tomorrow, and the flower viewing banquet is right across the street. If we go boating, we can see the flower viewing banquet, avoid identity trouble, and take the opportunity to relax. Sister Su, why don't we go together?"
She blinked her eyes, revealing a hint of anticipation and a bit of coquettishness.
At this time, Wei Ersao passed by with a few beauty jars in her arms. When she heard Jing Zhiwan's words, she stopped.
Her eyes lit up, and she said quickly, "Sister-in-law, this sounds like a great idea! Although we can't attend the flower viewing banquet, we can still enjoy the fun by boating on Tang Lake. Maybe we can even meet some potential customers. It will also allow everyone to relax. Everyone has been working hard on the Meiyan Pavilion recently."
As Wei Ersao spoke, she gently patted the beauty jar in her hand, her eyes full of anticipation.
After hearing this, Su Huaiyue thought to himself.
Indeed, this is a good opportunity to get to know the various families in Youzhou, and maybe even find new customers for Meiyan Pavilion.
Thinking of this, she nodded slightly: "It sounds like a good idea. Okay, I agree to go."
Seeing Su Huaiyue agreed, Jing Zhiwan happily stepped forward, took Su Huaiyue's arm affectionately, and smiled: "Sister Su is so nice! Sister Su loves me and is willing to accompany me."
As she spoke, she looked at Su Huaiyue coquettishly: "Sister Su, you see Master Wei is still hesitating, can you help me persuade him?"
Su Huaiyue felt uncomfortable. She could feel the special feelings she had for Wei Che playing tricks on her. It was not pleasant to match her beloved with someone else. But she still tried to suppress the strange feeling in her heart. With a faint smile on her face, she looked at Wei Che and said, "Wei Che, let's go together. It's a rare opportunity like this. Let's go and relax together."
Wei Che's brows were calm, but the fingers at his sides were slightly curled up, his slender fingers were clenched together tightly, and his knuckles turned white, revealing his inner dissatisfaction.
He didn't want to have too much contact with Jing Zhiwan, and he didn't want to go out with her under such circumstances, but Su Huaiyue had already spoken, so how could he refuse?
He nodded slightly and said in a low voice: "Since my sister-in-law said so, I will go with you."
Seeing Wei Che agree, Jing Zhiwan almost jumped for joy: "That's great! Sister Su, you are such a good sister-in-law. You always listen to me. Master Wei is so lucky to have a sister-in-law like you."
She specifically emphasized the identity of "sister-in-law", and then she skipped away. Before leaving, she did not forget to turn back and remind Su Huaiyue and Wei Che to be on time tomorrow.
After Jing Zhiwan left, the atmosphere between Su Huaiyue and Wei Che became a little awkward.
Su Huaiyue didn't dare to look Wei Che in the eye. She hurriedly looked away and made an excuse: "I suddenly remembered that there are still some new products that need to be developed. There are still many details to be figured out. I have to go and get busy first."
After saying that, he left in a hurry, his steps were a little flustered, and he almost bumped into the shelf next to him.
Wei Che looked at Su Huaiyue's departing back in silence.
There was a hint of loneliness in his eyes, and his heart was filled with mixed feelings.
He didn't understand why Su Huaiyue accepted Jing Zhiwan's invitation, and he didn't understand why she persuaded him to go with her.
Could it be that she really only regards herself as an ordinary brother and is unaware of her feelings?
In a corner, Wei Yunrou was looking for a place to dry a wet handkerchief.
She was wearing a light blue dress, the hem of which swayed gently as she walked. The dress was embroidered with delicate little flowers, making her look playful and cute.
Her face flushed red, and she muttered as she walked, "Why is this handkerchief so hard to dry? Even the sun doesn't help."
When she raised her eyes, she noticed her fifth brother standing alone not far away, as if he was looking at something in front of him.
Wei Yunrou stood on tiptoe and looked forward over the branches. In the direction Wei Che was looking was the figure of her sister-in-law, who seemed to be walking in a hurry.
Is it something urgent?
She looked at Wei Che, who was looking at Su Huaiyue's back in silence.
She pursed her lips slightly, and the corners of her mouth curved downwards in a small arc. Suddenly, her mind emerged with the nonsense she had said when she was drunk that night, especially the sentence "Brother's soul is attached to him to see you."
