Beauty under the moon
"What a pity that this meat, specially air-freighted from Inner Mongolia, is still not available to Erlang Shen." Fu Muqian held the barbecue tools in his hand, and the meat on the grill sizzled, filling the entire private room with its aroma.
Some were in pairs, while others were alone.
I didn't prepare any small baking pans, but instead used a large baking pan to make it more lively.
Jiang Yuzhu was also grilling meat, cutting a steak that was about 70-80% cooked with scissors and putting small pieces onto his wife's plate.
"Why worry about him? He should be enjoying himself with Young Master Ye right now. This is a different kind of vacation for him."
Ji Luqi is all alone and doesn't have a partner yet. Fu Muqian is grilling meat for the sickly beauty. Mei Lanting is unlikely to eat such things as they might hurt his throat. Although Ziya Jingmo is also single, he doesn't like to eat these kinds of things either.
It was quite a task for Ji Lüqi, a zither master who cherished his instrument dearly, to personally grill the meat.
Of course, there are other dishes besides barbecue, but this was just airlifted from Inner Mongolia this morning, so it's very fresh, and there's also top-quality venison.
“That’s true,” Ji Luqi picked up a piece of venison, dipped it in the sauce, put it in a lettuce leaf, and then wrapped it up with some other mixed vegetables. “In a few days, I’ll be traveling all over the world again. I’m so busy.”
Yu Ci got up and placed a piece of roasted beef on Ji Luqi's plate. "If you don't like it, then take a break. Why make yourself so busy?"
Ji Luqi smiled at her, looking at the increasingly beautiful woman who resembled a blooming epiphyllum. Ji Luqi tilted her chin and said, "I heard there's a young man pursuing you?"
"Definitely, and there's more than one." Ziya Jingmo, who was usually not very talkative, spoke up unusually, his eyes full of gossip.
As expected, as soon as Ziya Jingmo said this, everyone turned to look at Yu Ci, and even Shen Bei'an and Xie Yunyu couldn't help but look at Yu Ci.
The owner of the Moonlit Beauty Inn is a classic beauty, but she is also genuinely cold.
Over the years, I have never heard of this shopkeeper having any scandals.
Her eyes, clear as autumn water and bright as stars, were gentle as water. "It's not that exaggerated. They're just a few ignorant kids."
Clearly, this classical beauty did not take those suitors to heart.
“Qin Suifeng, the Ninth Master of the Qin family, if I remember correctly, I saw him chasing after you when I was at Yue Ting Nan Residence before the New Year.” Fu Muqian seemed to have thought of something, put down the clip, and smiled.
This reminded Shen Beian of something. He tugged at Gu Nanyan's sleeve under the table, and Gu Nanyan leaned in to listen. Shen Beian whispered, "Didn't I stay at Yue Ting Nan She for a while when I was filming the variety show? I saw two very familiar figures back then, but I didn't pay attention to them. Now that I think about it, it seems to be Qin Suifeng and Yu Ci."
This was something Gu Nanyan hadn't noticed.
"It's alright, Zici and Qin Suifeng are impossible, so don't worry." Gu Nanyan gently patted the back of Shen Bei'an's hand.
The Qin family took Lu Ming away, and given the Qin family's good relations with the Weisheng family in the past two years, it's even more impossible.
"The Qin family?" Ji Luqi chewed on her meat and took a sip of fruit tea. "This is a bit complicated, the relationships are all over the place."
"What are the Qin family members?" Mei Lanting also picked up her health tea and took a sip. "The Gu family's third young master is the real focus, isn't he?" she said, looking at Gu Nanyan.
Xie Yunyu's eyes widened. Gu Nanjin, the third young master of the Gu family!
When Gu Nanjin was mentioned, Yu Ci's eyes began to dart away.
This dodge instantly piqued everyone's curiosity.
"No, sister, my dear sister, Gu San! Isn't he a guy who loves cars to death? Isn't his mind only on cars? What's going on?" Ji Luqi instantly moved closer to Yu Ci.
By calculation, Ji Luqi's aunt is Gu Nanjin's mother, which means that Ji Luqi is Gu Nanjin's cousin, so she naturally knows Gu Nanjin well.
I just felt like that guy only had eyes for cars!
Seeing that this had piqued everyone's interest, Mei Lanting continued, "That day at Qie Ting Feng Yin, I saw Gu San picking up Zi Ci in a Zouwu custom-made car."
The Zouwu's custom-made car is obvious at a glance, and Gu Sankai's is even more expensive. "It should be a gift from you, Ziyan, to him on his coming-of-age ceremony."
Furthermore, the Zouwu's private customization is the most difficult to obtain among all luxury car private customizations in the world.
"You actually drove that car that Ziyan gave you to pick you up?!" Ji Luqi knew Gu Nanjin relatively well and was also aware of the extraordinary significance that car held for him.
“No wonder Jing’er didn’t say anything when Uncle and Aunt discussed this matter on New Year’s Eve.” Gu Nanyan poured a cup of fruit tea and handed it to Shen Bei’an, then looked at Yu Ci as well. “So he has someone he loves.”
Shen Bei'an ate his meat silently without saying a word.
Yu Ci blushed and said, "It's not even close to being settled yet, don't talk nonsense!" Having moved on from a failed relationship, Yu Ci was afraid to step into another one. Even after so many years, it was still difficult to bring that stagnant pool back to life.
“The Ninth Master of the Qin family isn’t very capable, but Gu San is quite good.” Sheng Jingxuan, who hadn’t spoken until now, finally spoke up.
Sheng Jingxuan, the second daughter of the Sheng family, is Jiang Yuzhu's wife.
So although she and Gu San are not related by blood, they can still be considered relatives.
Yu Ci's lips were a little dry. Wei Shengxi happened to hand her some warm water. Yu Ci subconsciously took it, but didn't drink it. She just held it tightly in her hand, lowered her eyes, and said, "It's not appropriate."
It's unsuitable, whether in terms of age or anything else.
That's the third young master of the Gu family, a leading figure in the younger generation of the Gu family's political circles in the capital of the empire, and one of the eight councilors!
Such a person is completely unsuitable for her.
Xie Yunyu also enjoyed Shen Juanqing's care, which was only natural.
Having a boyfriend has made Xie Yunyu realize that she no longer has to do many trivial things herself, which is great.
And most importantly, it seems like you can learn a lot of fun things.
For example, right now.
She knew that the owner of the Moonlit Beauty Inn was named Yu Ci, and was a good friend of Shen Juanqing.
But here, she learned that Yu Ci's original name was Wei Shengyue, and she was Wei Shengxi's aunt!
Furthermore, Wei Shengyue had been married before, through a family alliance.
The marriage partner is none other than Helian Yunbai, the young master of the Helian family whom they had targeted before the new year!
Xie Yunyu only knew that Helian Yunbai, the Grand Duke of Nanheng in Xihua City, had been divorced, and she also knew that his ex-wife was the great-aunt of the Weisheng family.
But she didn't know that the owner of the famous Moonlit Beauty in the capital was actually Wei Shengyue!
“There’s nothing inappropriate about it,” Gu Nanyan said calmly as she was grilling meat for Shen Bei’an. “Jing’er has already spoken to his uncle and aunt.”
