Chapter 75: Who else can you mess with?



Cui Xin was being blatantly tormented by Liu Dong, while Wen Yu finished her lunch and took Liu Chun straight to Yue Lingfeng's residence.

At this time, he had just finished painting a new work.

Wen Yu leaned over to take a look and felt that the person looked familiar.

"Miss, don't you remember?"

“I remember.”

Isn't this the scene in the Thesis Teahouse where she walked down the stairs wearing a veil?

Wen Yu held up her chin and said, "The incident at the teahouse shouldn't be a good memory for you, right?"

Yue Lingfeng shook his head gently: "Of course."

There was a smile in his eyes. Although he was in a mess, he was happy to have a relationship with the young lady.

"This painting is for Miss."

Wen Yu took the painting and handed it to Liu Chun, teasing: "This is the second time you have painted me, but you, I haven't painted any yet."

Yue Lingfeng felt a little embarrassed when he heard this. He had clearly promised the young lady yesterday and had boldly expressed his feelings, but when it was brought up again at this moment, he still felt his heart beating wildly.

"So you're going to the painting stall now?"

Yue Lingfeng tried hard to suppress the throbbing in his heart and nodded gently: "Miss, are you willing to go with me?"

Wen Yu smiled and said, "Of course, I haven't sold any paintings yet. Let me tell you something in secret. I won't tell anyone else. Actually, I've had a dream of setting up a stall to sell hoops since I was a kid, but it has never come true."

A trace of doubt flashed across Yue Lingfeng's face: "Miss, I understand setting up a stall, but...what is a ring?"

Speaking of this, Wen Yu is no longer sleepy. "It's just marking an area, spreading a piece of cloth on the ground, and then placing a lot of beautiful and fun things. People spend money to buy a ring and throw it out. If they catch something, it belongs to them, and if they don't, they go home empty-handed."

Yue Lingfeng: ...

How is this different from getting something for nothing?

He laughed dumbly: "As expected of a young lady, you really have some wonderful ideas."

Wen Yu shook her finger: "This is not my fantasy, this is a street stall project that has gone through the cruel test of the market and is still a classic and timeless project!"

Yue Lingfeng raised his lips when he heard her words. Seeing that she was very eloquent in describing "hooping", he said softly, "Since Miss has this wish, then we won't sell paintings today. How about hoop-tossing?"

Wen Yu was a little surprised, then burst out laughing: "Forget it today, there are some rules for putting a ring on it, but you can try it next time. Come with me, and I will show you the charm of getting something for nothing."

Yue Lingfeng: ...

"It turns out that the young lady knows that this is a case of getting something for nothing."

"Hmm?" Wen Yu blinked. "If he and I are willing to do something for nothing, it's not a deal."

"What's that called?"

"It's called business brains!"

The three of them arrived at the painting stall, and Yue Lingfeng sorted the scrolls one by one, unfolded them and hung them up with great skill.

Wen Yu sat in front of the stall bored, her pure white veil covering the lower half of her face, revealing only a pair of beautiful eyes that were extremely lively and moving.

Although she was wearing a veil and sitting very quietly, passers-by still looked at her in amazement and glanced at her again and again.

Seeing this, Liu Chun behind him breathed a sigh of relief. Fortunately, the princess wore a veil, otherwise if she stayed in front of the stall for too long, it would definitely cause a commotion.

Before Wen Yu could even sit down, a young man came to look at the paintings.

The young man was dressed quite elegantly, with an air of nobility and arrogance.

He opened his fan and waved it, then introduced himself: "Miss, my name is Jin Kong. May I ask how much does this painting cost?"

Wen Yu raised her eyes and pointed at Yue Lingfeng who was standing beside her: "He is the boss, I am not. Ask him if you want to buy paintings."

Upon hearing this, Jin Kong glanced at Yue Lingfeng and shook his head, as if he was disdainful of communicating with him.

He just looked at Wen Yu and said in a very provocative tone: "But I want to buy a painting from you, Miss. Do you want to sell it to me?"

Liu Chun frowned upon hearing this and shouted, "How dare you talk to my young lady like that!"

Yue Lingfeng gently stood in front of Wen Yu, blocking Jin Kong's offensive gaze. Junxiu's face was unusually cold, and his tone was very serious: "Sir, Yue's painting stall does not welcome you, please leave."

Jin Kong looked up and down at Yue Lingfeng and saw that he was dressed simply, wearing the common robes of scholars. Although it was clean and tidy, it still looked very shabby in his eyes.

Just as he was about to mock, Wen Yu, who was sitting on a bamboo chair, poked her head out from behind Yue Lingfeng, raised her eyebrows and said, "Fifty taels a piece, pick whatever you want."

"Fifty taels?" Jin Kong was surprised, then he smiled while shaking his fan, "Okay, fifty taels! I'll buy it!"

As he spoke, he took out a silver ingot from his sleeve and threw it on the painting stall. "Here, just consider it as an acquaintance of mine."

Yue Lingfeng looked at the silver ingot and a look of disgust flashed in his eyes.

But he didn't expect Wen Yu to suddenly reach out and push him aside, "Make way."

Then he sat motionless on the bamboo chair, folding his arms, looking very leisurely.

She glanced at the silver ingot, and a hint of a smile appeared on the corner of her mouth under her veil: "Just consider it an acquaintance?"

Wen Yu stretched out her hand, and Liu Chun felt something and immediately put a handkerchief in her hand.

She gave Liuchun a thumbs up, stood up, wrapped the silver ingot with a silk handkerchief, and shook it in her hand, feeling it was quite heavy.

Then, with lightning speed, it hit Jin Kong's face directly.

With a scream, Jin Kong covered his nose, and two streams of blood slid down his philtrum.

Wen Yu's eyes curved as she said leisurely, "Fifty taels? Ten thousand taels of gold, a little jerk like you is not even worthy of knowing me."

Jin Kong raised his head and looked at the blood in his hands, and the muscles in his forehead twitched.

"Little scoundrel?" Jin Kong sneered, "Then how can I not do what a little scoundrel should do? Today, I will take you into the mansion and make you my thirteenth concubine!"

As soon as he finished speaking, an angry voice suddenly came from behind him: "What trouble are you causing again? Didn't I tell you to behave yourself these days?!"

Seeing the person who was speaking, Wen Yu and Yue Lingfeng both raised their eyebrows.

The person who came was Luo Jing, who had written couplets with Wen Yu in the Thesis Teahouse.

Luo Jing naturally also saw Wen Yu and Yue Lingfeng.

But he only recognized Yue Lingfeng, because Wen Yu was wearing a veil on her head at the time, so he did not see her real face.

However, when seeing this combination, Luo Jing immediately realized that Wen Yu was the woman in the veiled hat in the teahouse.

His father's words suddenly reappeared in his mind.

"The woman you provoked is Prime Minister Lin's aunt! You could have provoked anyone else, but you provoked such a tough guy! I have lost face in front of Prime Minister Lin! The Spring Examination will start in the spring, so you better behave yourself during this period! Otherwise, you will be in trouble!"

Thinking of this, he took a breath.

"You..." He looked at Wen Yu, a complicated expression flashing in his eyes, "Uh..."
