Chang Hui’s eyes lit up. “A store in West Town? Which part of West Town?”
Lin Yu smiled. “It’s on West Town’s 2nd Street. It’s the Xi family’s famous jewelry store; many customers far and wide go to buy things there because of its reputation. My mother-in-law said that, to show her sincerity, she’s giving it to you. You can go over whenever it’s convenient, and we’ll complete the transfer procedures on the spot.”
Chang Hui grinned from ear to ear. “Alright, okay. Oh, you and your mother-in-law! This is too much! This—I’m a little too embarrassed to accept this.”
Lin Yu hurriedly replied, “When all’s said and done, with my relationship with
Gu Man, we’re family. Go ahead and take it; this is just a small courtesy. Your Gu family has just arrived in Rong City and has yet to familiarize yourselves with the businesses here. If Uncle Gu Ping and Uncle Gu An need anything, just let Xi Cheng know.”
“Don’t worry,” Lin Yu added. “Xi Cheng is quite capable when it comes to work. That matter with Gu Man was really… *sigh* It was truly because he lost his conduct after drinking too much. He’s also incredibly chagrined about it. I was hoping you could talk to Uncle Gu Ping and give Xi Cheng some errands, even if it’s something small and inconsequential—it would resolve this awkwardness. At least it would lighten Xi Cheng’s guilt and let him know you elders don’t blame him.”
Yun Liu’s lips curled up slightly. “From what you said, I take it you know my adoptive sister, Yun Nan. My looks aren’t worth mentioning before Yun Nan.” They were both shrewd, so there’s no need to waste time saying anything more.
As expected, Lin Yu understood, and her smile became more genuine. “Of course I know her. Didn’t you hear it back there? Even now, Gu Man still wants to marry Shi Nian. I have to do my best to help her, or she won’t give up on Xi
Cheng otherwise.”
Yun Liu stared at Lin Yu. “Can you really break Yun Nan and Shi Nian up?
“So, you also want to marry Shi Nian?” Lin Yu asked bluntly; such directness stunned Yun Liu.
Lin Yu chuckled, “I heard about the scandal between you and Shi Nian. I didn’t expect Yun Nan to beat you to it. The Shi family and our Xi family have been friends for generations; Shi Nian and Xi Cheng are also best friends. There’s nothing they don’t tell each other.”
Yun Liu gazed at Lin Yu, her eyes wide open in disbelief. Lin Yu glanced at the mansion behind Yun Liu and smiled. “1 don’t care who Shi Nian marries, but there’s no way I’ll help someone who covets my husband. It’s best if someone like that doesn’t even have the right to see him again.”
Yun Liu also smiled and relaxed. “You have a point. Since the Shi and Xi families are on good terms, it would be convenient for anyone marrying into the Shi family to meet Xi Cheng in the future. Don’t worry, Lin Yu, I’ll help you keep the riff-raff away.”
Lin Yu’s smile deepened. “Yun Liu, you’re so kind, beautiful, and smart. That’s how a daughter-in-law of the Shi family should be..”
