"Are these banknotes enough?"
Fortunately, she brought enough silver before going out. The twenty thousand taels of silver were enough to shut her mouth. Mother Rong's eyes were so happy that they turned into crescents.
"Enough, of course it's enough. It's enough for you to buy this Sakura Building!" Mother Rong said with a smile, and then she kept Shangguan Yurou here. Shangguan Yurou was given a cup of tea according to the rules, and sat aside, her eyes full of confusion.
"Are you trying to ask me why a grown woman like me should redeem you?" Ling'er confessed before she could even ask.
"Um……"
Shangguan Yurou was a little scared at first, wondering if this woman had some special hobby, but then she thought again, she had never heard of this girl before.
"Don't worry, but you have to remember, I redeemed you, so you have to listen to me from now on. I want you to help me seduce someone, and make that man fall in love with you irresistibly, preferably someone who is willing to give up his life for you."
"Ah?" Shangguan Yurou had never put it into practice. Although all the sisters praised her for being a natural beauty, when they were receiving customers, the sisters would try their best to let her stay in the backyard. She had never experienced the world, so how could she understand so many things?
"If you find it difficult, forget it. But as long as you help me complete this task, I will give you freedom and 500 taels of gold as compensation. Then you can go wherever you want, and no one will force you to do something you don't like."
Shangguan Yurou was somewhat moved. This girl was too generous. But because of this, she felt uneasy. She was afraid that this was not a simple matter and might even lead to a fatal disaster...
Gu Yunru took Yin Cheng and others to search the street for a long time and went to a restaurant to sit down. The shopkeeper came up to them attentively and said, "Boss, I haven't seen you for a long time!"
"Yeah. Uncle Liu, you seem to be a lot younger. Is it because your wife gave birth to a fat baby recently and you are so happy?"
Uncle Liu has been the shopkeeper and waiter here for five or six years. He runs the restaurant in perfect order. Whenever something goes wrong, he will use his logic to solve it. He has helped her to settle many troubles. The restaurant has become bigger and there are chains everywhere, so it is inevitable that some people will be jealous.
"Yes, yes, my daughter-in-law has already given birth to six babies. She is really fertile. I plan to make her a lamb's trotter and wolfberry soup tonight to nourish her!"
"She is so lucky to have a father-in-law like you." Gu Yunru and Uncle Liu were chatting about family matters. When she noticed that Yin Cheng didn't look very well, she reached out and touched his forehead and said, "What's wrong, Yin Cheng? Are you feeling unwell?"
"Nothing, I'm just worried that something might happen to Yue'er. She's unfamiliar with the place, and I'm afraid something might happen!"
"So that's how it is. Don't worry. The capital is a place with laws. Unless she is hiding and doesn't want to see us, I really can't think of any other reason."
Gu Yunru shrugged his shoulders in disappointment. Soon the dishes were placed on the table. There was a dish of Dongpo pork, stewed pig's trotter with soybeans, and hot and sour potato shreds. These were all Gu Yunru's favorites. He put a piece of pig's trotter in his bowl and urged him, "Man is made of iron and rice is made of steel. If you don't eat, you will be hungry. You should eat first so that you have the strength to look for Yue'er. You are so thin and you haven't taken a medicinal bath in recent days.
You must listen to my instructions tonight and take a medicinal bath honestly and don't go out in the middle of the night!"
"Thank you Aunt Wang for your concern, but I still can't let it go..."
No matter what, she was still worried about whether Yue'er would have any unexpected events outside. Gu Yunru put down her bowl and chopsticks and looked at him seriously and said, "Yin Cheng, tell Aunt Wang the truth, how far have you and Yue'er developed?" After hearing this, Yin Cheng's reaction became very strange.
"Aunt Wang, why are you asking this question out of the blue?" Yin Cheng was not very cooperative. Instead, he picked up his bowl and chopsticks and started eating obediently. The more he behaved like this, the more Gu Yunru felt that there was something fishy going on. There must be something she wanted to hide from him deliberately.
"You like Yue'er, don't you?" Gu Yunru spoke directly and frankly, not wanting to beat around the bush with these juniors. She was an experienced person, and she knew what these juniors were thinking like a mirror, so how could they hide it from her?
"Aunt Wang, don't talk nonsense. The relationship between Yue'er and I is really simple, and I have always regarded her as my sister. Even if it has been like this since the beginning, it will not change in the future..."
"Oh..." Gu Yunru looked at him suspiciously. Seeing that he finished his meal slowly, she continued to watch on the street. However, she found that there were some problems at the door of Lian Shengbiao Opera House. Several grown men were actually teasing Ruyan!
Just as he was about to help Ruyan, a black figure flew in from nowhere and kicked all the hooligans aside. Unexpectedly, it was Ji Heng. He was the hero who saved the damsel in distress this time!

"Ruyan, are you okay?" Gu Yunru quickly walked forward to check on Ruyan. She only had some abrasions on her wrist, which was not a big deal. No one knew where Wu Liang went at the critical moment. Could it be that he was a coward?
"My husband went to escort the convoy. He said he wanted to familiarize himself with the terrain. He hadn't been back to a foreign country for a long time. He didn't know if some of the roads were passable. But I didn't expect that those hooligans were here to cause trouble. I don't know where they came from..."
Ruyan recalled that those ferocious-looking people didn't seem to be so evil. They were wearing formal clothes and didn't look like the most heinous criminals. Moreover, only those in the same industry could do such a thing under the feet of the emperor in the capital.
Ji Heng held the Red Flame Sword in his hand, and it was obvious that he didn't care about those people. At the same time, he was also very worried about Ruyan's condition. He volunteered to stay at Liansheng Escort Agency and accompany her through this period of time. Gu Yunru's eyes turned quickly. He couldn't let these two people get together again while Wu Liang was not at home, otherwise Shu'er's sacrifice would be in vain! "No, no, my husband and I will often come to Lianshun Escort Agency during this period, and Ruyan is my good friend. How could I let her be threatened? I will immediately have someone dispatch someone to come over, so that Ruyan will not be in similar danger again." Gu Yunru gave a big thumbs up for his reaction. Fortunately, Ji Heng did not succeed, but he was very puzzled as to why Ji Heng made such a choice subconsciously.
