“I’ve heard about what happened yesterday. It caused quite a stir, and now everyone in Haicheng is saying that things are about to change,” said Madam Ju, looking at the two people in front of her, as if she could see how the future of Haicheng would change. “No matter what you want to do, the Ju family will always support you.”
"Thank you," Sheng Qian said sincerely, "I'm afraid I'll drag you down with me again in the future. The enemies we face are not simple..."
Madam Ju raised her hand to interrupt her, "What are you saying? I knew about the situation here before I came to Haicheng. It's too formal for you to tell me these things now."
“My people will take care of your safety here,” Long Yunting said without saying much, but he did take concrete action.
Madam Ju was quite satisfied with Long Yunting. She had previously thought that Long Yunting's leg ailment might prevent him from giving Sheng Qian enough happiness, but now it seemed there was another reason behind it.
“You don’t need to focus your attention on me. Compared to me, you need someone to protect you more,” Old Madam Ju looked at Sheng Qian and asked, “Does the Helan family know about what happened in Haicheng?”
“It’s probably impossible to keep it a secret,” Sheng Qian said. “They know I’m coming to Haicheng, so they’ll pay extra attention to everything that happens here.”
"With the Helan family's help, things will be much easier for you," said Madam Ju, her face relaxing as she heard that the Helan family also knew that Sheng Qian was here. "I will take your uncle with me to handle the business matters, so don't worry."
“I still need to send some people over to assist you,” Sheng Qian said. She wouldn’t let them do it alone, not because she didn’t trust them, but because she was worried that something might happen to them in Haicheng.
As Sheng Qian's business grew larger and larger, the number of people she needed to train also increased.
In terms of money, they also invested one sum after another.
If it weren't for having a space around her, she would really feel a bit constrained in doing some things.

afternoon.
Sheng Qian and Long Yunting then went to the Fu family's place.
Fu Yinru pulled Long Yunting aside to talk, while Sheng Qian went in alone to see Fu Huoqing.
"You've come! I haven't thanked you yet. I was only saved from death because of you," Fu Huoqing said, appearing quite magnanimous and unafraid of death.
It seems that death is not such a big deal.
"How are you feeling?" Sheng Qian asked as she sat down next to her, taking her pulse and checking her complexion.
“I feel great. Your medicine must be a miracle drug. After taking it, I feel full of energy,” Fu Huoqing joked.
Sheng Qian smiled slightly, "It is indeed a somewhat miraculous medicine. I hope you didn't experience any discomfort after taking it."
"No, I wish I could get out of bed and walk around right now, but Uncle Ji and the others are stopping me," Fu Huoqing said with a helpless smile. "You don't know, what I hate most is being like this, lying in bed all day and not being able to do anything."
She is a very active person; she can't sit still or lie down for long periods.
Unfortunately, this injury requires her to rest more.
Sheng Qian's main purpose in coming here was to find out what Fu Huoqing was thinking for Sheng Mu.
Before Fu Huoqing brought up the small summit, Sheng Qian subtly inquired about Fu Huoqing's intentions.
But as I kept asking questions, I started to feel that something was off.
Fu Huoqing said to Sheng Qian with a serious expression, "Sheng Qian, do I look like the kind of person who steals her friend's man?"
"..."
After talking for so long, she still thought she was talking about Long Yunting.
Fu Huoqing said seriously, "My feelings for Young Master Long are admiration, not what you think at all. Sheng Qian, you haven't always thought of me that way, have you? If so, I've been wronged."
“I didn’t think about it that way,” Sheng Qian said, both amused and exasperated. “I just wanted to ask if you have a type you like.”
“There’s no one I particularly like,” Fu Huoqing said, squinting at Sheng Qian. “Who sent you to find out about these things? Sheng Mu? I knew it was him. This kid thinks I’m stupid. He stares at me every time he sees me. I’m not a block of wood, how could I not feel it?”
Sheng Qian: "..."
Your tone is really arrogant.
It feels like I don't care at all.
It's as if they're talking about someone else.
It was as if Sheng Mu wasn't looking at her, but at another woman.
Sheng Qian was both amused and exasperated, "Then how come you..."
“I quite like him,” Fu Huoqing admitted directly.
Sheng Qian: "..."
It seems she asked in vain.
The person in question can see it all clearly and plainly.
It's definitely better if my own dad confesses his feelings directly; no, I might as well just snatch her away.
What did he say to you?
"He said he wants to marry you and he wants to propose tomorrow!" Sheng Qian said through gritted teeth, speechless.
Fu Huoqing frowned. "I do like him, but I'm not at the point of marrying him."
“So you want to marry someone else,” Sheng Qian said. “Anyway, quite a few girls have taken a liking to him lately, including many heiresses from prominent families in Haicheng. I think there’s one who’s a perfect match for him. If you don’t like him, I’ll go back and persuade him to marry that heiresses.”
Then you each went to cry.
Fu Huoqing's lips twitched slightly, but she couldn't utter a single word.
Suddenly I felt uneasy.
"That heiress from a prestigious family is very beautiful?"
"Yes, she is very beautiful. The other party also promised a lot of benefits. He must have been in a hurry and exaggerated his relationship with you in front of her."
"..." Fu Huoqing fell into a long silence.
Sheng Qian didn't disturb her. "I'll go out first. You should rest and recover."
"Um."
Fu Huoqing felt a little down.
