Chapter 128 Not as Good as Before



The next moment, the door that was originally closed was pushed open.

It is Sun Jingfu.

Sang Luan spoke first, "Manager Sun, what's going on outside?"

She looked up and saw that Sun Jingfu had some sweat on his forehead.

Sun Jingfu couldn't hide the joy in his eyes.

He raised his hand and wiped his forehead with his sleeve before slowly saying, "Now everyone is rushing into the store to verify the authenticity of the plaque."

"The scene was even grander than the opening day." Sun Jingfu's mood gradually calmed down, and a trace of embarrassment flashed across his face.

"Some say it's true, while others say it's false. Those who say it's false are inciting others. I'm unsure, so I wanted to ask you two: should we intervene?"

Sang Luan slowly picked up the teacup in front of her and took a sip.

This ordinary tea is indeed not as good as the one from Tianxianglou.

She leaned sideways, her eyes sweeping over the pastries in front of her intentionally or unintentionally.

He lowered his eyes and selected carefully.

"Don't interfere. This is exactly what I want. Have you done everything I asked you to do?"

After a while, Sang Luan chose a piece of cake.

She slowly looked at Sun Jingfu.

Sun Jingfu nodded vigorously, "I have done everything, but I am afraid this time will be the same as before."

He was silent for a moment. "Right now, it seems like there are indeed a lot of people here, but many of them didn't choose anything. They just came in to take a few glances and then left."

Sang Luan raised her right hand slightly, put a finger to her lips, and hushed, "Listen."

After he finished speaking, the other people in the room held their breath and listened carefully to the noise coming from outside.

Sun Jingfu's pupils shrank slightly. Is someone causing trouble?

He lifted his clothes and was about to speak.

The next moment, Sang Luan put the unfinished piece of cake in her hand back on the plate, stood up and clapped her hands.

She casually grabbed Sun Jingfu's arm and said, "Shopkeeper Sun, why are you in such a hurry?"

Sun Jingfu paused, looking quite puzzled.

Immediately, Sang Luan raised her chin slightly, walked to the door first and opened it.

She held the plum blossom curtain with one hand and said softly, "Nuo, take a look at what's going on first."

Sun Jingfu leaned forward with a doubtful look on his face. He half-closed his eyes, took a quick look, and then quickly looked away.

The whole person looked even more shocked.

Sun Jingfu silently retracted his hand and pointed outside the soft curtain, "There are more people."

Sang Luan snapped his fingers and slowly returned to his original position. "That's right, Shopkeeper Sun, get busy."

"By the way, this is the helper I found for you. You can leave the math and account books to her." Meng Youning pointed to Muye behind him.

Mu Ye took a step forward, folded his hands together, and bowed to Sun Jingfu.

Sun Jingfu glanced at Muye and bowed slightly towards him.

"Okay, go get busy and stop bowing." Meng Youning waved her hand.

Immediately, Sun Jingfu took Muye out.

As soon as the two men left, the two people who had been sitting upright relaxed a little.

Sang Luan lay back and looked up with a look of despair on her face.

"After I went back last time, I went to find the old lady according to your instructions. Sure enough, the old lady gathered everyone together without saying a word." Sang Luan seemed to suddenly think of something and sat up abruptly.

She turned sideways and looked at Meng Youning.

His eyes flickered, and at this moment, those clear eyes seemed to contain countless stars.

Meng Youning's expression was calm. "Right? Even if the old lady knew your little thoughts, she would still come forward due to her own reasons."

Meng Youning lowered her eyes, took the nearest hibiscus cake and took a small bite.

The next moment, he vomited it out.

Her brows furrowed tightly, and her face looked a little uncomfortable.

Sang Luan cried out, quickly stood up, and in two steps was in front of Meng Youning.

He took the hibiscus cake from Meng Youning's hand and said, "Don't eat the cake."

Meng Youning raised her eyes slightly and moved her lips slightly.

Suddenly, she started coughing violently and subconsciously bent down to cover her heart.

Every time I cough badly, my heart hurts terribly.

Sang Luan was startled and patted Meng Youning's back from time to time.

With an anxious look, he asked, "Ningning, please don't scare me."

Meng Youning's face turned red instantly, and a few crystal tears hung on her eyelids.

Seeing her like this, Sang Luan became even more frightened.

Soon, Meng Youning's movements became much smaller, and her coughing became much quieter as well.

Sang Luan took out a handkerchief and gently wiped the tears from Meng Youning's eyelids.

She bent over, keeping an eye on Meng Youning's expression. "How is it? Do you feel better?"

Meng Youning closed her eyes and exhaled lightly, "I'm fine, I just choked."

Sang Luan took the water beside her and felt relieved after watching Meng Youning drink several sips.

"No, your illness must be cured before we run away." Sang Luan frowned fiercely, and her voice was tinged with anxiety. "Otherwise, with your health, it will be easy for you to have problems on the road."

Meng Youning clutched the handkerchief tightly in one hand and covered her heart with the other, her face pale. "This disease was in the original owner's body since childhood."

The corners of her mouth twitched slightly, "Don't worry, I'm fine. As long as Qi Ran doesn't want my life, I can live safely."

"Besides, I will take you to taste all the delicacies in the world." There was a rare hint of tenderness between Meng Youning's eyebrows.
