Chapter 307 Ears Turned Red
"Miss, what exactly do you want to do?"
Mingyu initially thought that Gu Shuyan had plotted against Luo Yuying to sever her feelings, but it was clear that her young mistress had no intention of exposing the matter, which left Mingyu confused.
"Of course we should give her a big gift!"
Gu Shuyan smiled gently, and it was clear that she was in a good mood. If Mingyu had looked more closely, she would have noticed the excitement shining in her eyes.
Upon returning to the Marquis's residence, Gu Shuyan immediately assigned tasks to everyone. She herself rummaged through all her clothes, finally managing to choose a satisfactory outfit before writing a letter to Yan Meier.
Two days later, Gu Shuyan changed into a carefully selected light blue pleated skirt before leaving the Marquis's residence.
Before the master and servant arrived at the agreed location, news of Gu Shuyan leaving reached Lu Youming's ears.
"Master, Miss Gu has arranged to meet Miss Yan at a teahouse in the city."
The bodyguard looked at Lu Youming and carefully relayed the message he had received.
"Meet at the teahouse?" Lu Youming put down the book in his hand, looked at the guard, and when the guard nodded, Lu Youming immediately stood up.
The streets were quiet in winter, but not many people were around. Yet, even the coldest winter couldn't stop these wealthy young men from gathering in small groups.
In a private room on the second floor, Gu Shuyan sat by the window, gazing at the distance below.
A gust of cold wind swept by, and a carriage slowly came to a stop in front of the teahouse. Then, a girl wearing a cloak stepped out of the carriage.
At the same time, another carriage arrived in front of the teahouse. Looking at the familiar sign, Gu Shuyan's lips curled up.
It seems that everyone has arrived, so she should go and meet those two.
"Let's go, it's time for us to take the stage."
As Gu Shuyan spoke, she patted off imaginary dust from her body, stood up, and led Mingyu and Zhenzhu downstairs.
Inside the teahouse, Yan Meier, supported by her maid, walked to the counter and said to the waiter, "I have an appointment with Miss Gu, but I don't know which table she reserved!"
Yan Meier's voice was sweet and delicate, and it tickled the waiter's heart like a kitten scratching at it.
"Miss Gu?" The waiter paused for a moment before smiling and walking around. "Please come with me, Miss."
After saying that, the waiter led Yan Meier upstairs, looking back every few steps. Only when they reached behind a screen did the waiter say, "Miss Gu instructed that tea be served first after you arrive, and she will be there shortly after."
"Thank you very much, sir."
Yan Meier smiled slightly at the waiter, instantly making his ears turn red.
I had long heard that the young lady of the Yan family was charming and graceful, but now that I have met her in person, I know what it means to be captivating.
Working in the best teahouse in the capital, the waiter had seen countless people, but he had never seen anyone like Miss Yan.
Lu Youming personally watched Yan Meier go upstairs and was momentarily stunned by her captivating charm in every move she made.
"Is that the person Miss Gu arranged to meet?"
Looking at the guard beside him, Lu Youming asked.
The guard nodded upon hearing this and said, "It is indeed Miss Yan Meier from the Yan family."
"Yan Meier, she is quite a good match for her name."
Having served Lu Youming for many years, how could the guard not understand the meaning behind his words? A prince suddenly praising a woman—what else could it be but that he has taken a liking to her?
