Chapter 238 Are You Sure You Want Me to Follow Her?



Thinking of this, Su Huaiyue called the system in his mind.

"Hey, dog system, can I get a lot of beauty equipment by completing tasks?"

There was a precedent before. When I was in the southwest, I obtained a batch of medicinal materials by improving my favorability with Wei Che.

But this time I can't be with Wei Che again...

Thinking of this, the system's cold voice sounded.

【Host, please pay attention to civilized language! 】

Su Huaiyue rolled her eyes. "Great system, can I get a lot of beauty devices by completing tasks?"

[Yes, the host has two tasks to choose from. Task 1: Successfully hold a beauty tasting event within three days, inviting at least thirty influential people in Youzhou City to attend, and have at least twenty of them place orders for beauty products. Upon completion, you will receive one hundred beauty devices.]

[Task 2: Help Jing Zhiwan solve a recent problem she's facing and gain her high recognition. Upon completion, you will receive eighty beauty devices. Please make your choice as soon as possible.]

The system's cold voice echoed in Su Huaiyue's mind.

Su Huaiyue thought to herself that although holding a beauty tasting session could obtain more beauty devices at one time, time was tight. It would be quite difficult to invite many influential people and promote their purchases within three days.

Although the reward for helping Jing Zhiwan solve her problem is smaller, Jing Zhiwan has just placed a large order and has a good impression of her, so it may be easier to achieve.

After thinking for a moment, Su Huaiyue responded in her heart: "I choose Task 2."

The system didn't say much, only leaving a sentence "The mission has been confirmed, host, please act as soon as possible" and then fell silent.

After all the noble ladies had left, Jing Zhiwan was about to get on the Jing Mansion's carriage and leave, but Su Huaiyue saw the opportunity and stopped her.

"Sister Jing, please stay."

Jing Zhiwan paused, came back to her senses, and smiled, "Sister Su, is there anything else?"

"You seem a little worried today. Is there anything I can help you with?" Su Huaiyue was thinking about how to complete the task.

Unexpectedly, Jing Zhiwan was slightly stunned at first, a blush quickly appeared on her face, and she hesitated for a long time before she stammered.

"Sister Su, to be honest, Wei Che has always been reluctant to interact with me. He was nowhere to be seen today. I thought it would be great if I could go out with him and get to know him better, but I really don't know how to start. Sister Su, can you help me make an appointment with him?"

When Su Huaiyue heard this, her heart suddenly tightened and she almost forgot about it!

This damn system is really inhumane. Last time it asked her to improve her favorability with Wei Che, and this time it tried to match Wei Che with someone else.

Is this going to make Wei Che kill her?

[Third reminder, host, please use civilized language! ]

Su Huaiyue no longer wanted to pay attention to the voice of the system in her mind. Because Jing Zhiwan was still standing in front of her, she could only maintain a smile on her face, but there was a bit of unnaturalness in that smile.

Wei Yunrou on the side also widened her eyes with a look of surprise. She subconsciously looked at Su Huaiyue, her eyes full of worry.

Su Huaiyue took a deep breath and tried to calm herself down. After thinking for a moment, she said, "Miss Jing, Wei Che is usually busy, but I'll find a chance to talk to him and see if he can spare the time. But this kind of appointment requires a good timing, so Miss Jing, don't be too anxious."

When Jing Zhiwan heard this, hope instantly ignited in her eyes. She excitedly grabbed Su Huaiyue's hand and said, "Sister Su, it all depends on you. You must help me with this!"

Su Huaiyue forced a smile and nodded.

I should have chosen mission one earlier.

After sending Jing Zhiwan away, Su Huaiyue hurriedly asked in her mind, "Can I still change the mission?"

[Host, no! You've already heard about Jing Zhiwan's troubles, so you can't violate the rules!]

Excellent! She was the one who violated the rules.

Well, now I can only grit my teeth and do it.

After sending everyone away, Su Huaiyue sat aside. Only Wei Yunrou heard what happened just now. She came forward and asked, "Sister-in-law, do you really want to help Miss Jing?"

"Helping is one thing, but whether your brother Wei Che agrees is another."

Su Huaiyue also groaned in her heart. It was clear that she was asking for trouble.

She sat in the yard the whole afternoon, her fingers tapping unconsciously on the table, her eyes wandering, her mind full of how to tell Wei Che about this.

As night fell, Wei Che returned to the Wei residence.

Early this morning, several families in the east of the city came to ask for help with planting techniques. Su Huaiyue was busy with the beauty cream, so Wei Che volunteered to help.

He had followed Su Huaiyue in Wangjia Village for so long that he had already learned most of these things. Now he looked a bit like Su Huaiyue.

This day was full of gains, but also a bit tiring.

As soon as he entered the yard, he noticed that Su Huaiyue was acting strangely. Usually at this time, she would either go to study medicinal herbs or cook with her third and fourth sisters-in-law, but today she just sat there with a serious look on her face.

"Huai Yue, what's wrong with you?" Wei Che asked with concern, walking over to sit beside her.

Su Huaiyue raised her head and looked at Wei Che's gentle and concerned eyes. Her heart warmed, but when she thought of Jing Zhiwan's request, she felt a pang of bitterness.

She opened her mouth but didn't know where to start.

"Have you encountered any difficulties? Tell me." Wei Che's voice was low and gentle, with a reassuring power.

Su Huaiyue took a deep breath and decided to make things clear: "Wei Che, today Jing Zhiwan...she wanted me to ask you out on her behalf. She said she wanted to get to know you better."

After saying that, Su Huaiyue stared closely at Wei Che's eyes, trying to capture every change in his emotions.

Wei Che frowned slightly, and a hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes, but he quickly regained his composure, as if trying hard to suppress his anger, and looked up to meet Su Huaiyue's eyes.

"Are you sure you want me to get to know her better?"

These words seem to be a test.

Su Huaiyue pretended not to understand the pain that flashed across his eyes. She also vaguely felt that Wei Che seemed to have a different feeling for her, but they both knew in their hearts that this was impossible.

As Wei Che's eldest sister-in-law, she should set an example instead of letting the Wei family stand in the spotlight and be criticized.

Everything here is feudal, but the history books record that Wei Che was going to become an emperor.

She can't rewrite history, and she can't.

She was just an unintentional participant in this historical torrent.

Her throat seemed to be blocked. Su Huaiyue cleared her throat and avoided his burning gaze. "Miss Jing is a good person. My grandmother likes her too. Everyone has a good impression of her. She is also the daughter of the governor. Today she brought some noble ladies to support our business. If we can establish this connection, it might be helpful to our Wei family."
