Chapter 287: How Could He Laugh Out?

Sheng Huaixuan looked at Cui Muzhi in surprise.
Cui Muzhi chuckled and gave him a knowing look.
The carriage’s curtain was suddenly lifted from the corner. Cui Muzhi met Cui Lingyi’s cold warning gaze and immediately slipped away with the paper kite.
The team continued on their way.
Sheng Huaixuan carried Stinky, who was sleeping soundly, and looked distracted. Lin Yue could tell that someone was wrong with him, so he smiled and asked, “What’s wrong with Master?”
His strange expression was the same as Cui Muzhi ‘s. Sheng Huaixuan couldn’t help but be puzzled. “Why did you all misunderstand?”
It was a sentence that did not have any context. If it were anything else, Lin Yue would definitely not be able to guess it, but now he understood.
Lin Yue smiled and said, “Who doesn’t know how attentive you are to Madam
Cui?!”
Sheng Huaixuan frowned. “I’m attentive?”
Lin Yue chuckled. “If Madam Cui likes flowers, Master will get someone to send flowers every month. If Madam Cui developed rouge and cosmetics, Master will open a cosmetics shop for her. If Madam Cui feel any discomfort, Master will find Doctor Gu to prescribe medicine.”
Sheng Huaixuan glanced at him and explained, “Madam Cui bought the flowers with her own money. I was just helping. The cosmetics shop is very profitable, and Madam Cui’s rouge and cosmetics are the best quality. She took care of Stinky a lot, shouldn’t I find a doctor for her?”
How could Lin Yue believe his explanation?
Madam Cui had given him money, but Sheng Huaixuan had taken an unbelievably small amount.
Besides, there were so many people taking care of Stinky. Why wasn’t he so concerned with the other people?
He was clearly refusing to admit it.
Lin Yue shrugged. “Yes, it’s Master’s duty to take care of Madam Cui. We misunderstood.” He spread his hands. “Continue until Madam Cui gets married.’
Sheng Huaixuan’s eyes darkened. Lin Yue thought that he would be angry. Unexpectedly, he was silent for a long time. His gentle face was filled with melancholy as he said, “You’re right. I overstepped my boundaries.”
Sheng Huaixuan’s eyes darkened. Lin Yue thought that he would be angry. Unexpectedly, he was silent for a long time. His gentle face was filled with melancholy as he said, “You’re right. I overstepped my boundaries.”
Lin Yue was about to panic. Sheng Huaixuan was swift and decisive in the business world. Why was he so wishy-washy when it involved Cui Lingyi?
He couldn’t help but say, “Master, Young Master likes Madam Cui so much, and
Madam Bai and Madam Cui are good friends. What are you worried about?’
The scholars of Qinghe had gathered. If Sheng Huaixuan wanted to occupy the Qinghe Market, he naturally had to find out some inside information.
He had known about Cui Lingyi’s fake marriage a few years ago.
He wasn’t good enough for her in the past, let alone now.
Sheng Huaixuan looked at Lin Yue with a complicated expression, as if he wanted to say something, but in the end, he said nothing.
Lin Yue could not get anything out of him, so he could only give up.
His Qingfeng was the best. She was direct and even liked him.
At the thought that they were about to get married in the Southern Frontier, Lin Yue smiled foolishly again.
Qin Xiao was satisfied with the watercolor brush and solid paint. It was as if he had entered a new world and specially developed several painting techniques.
The afterglow in the evening was very beautiful. Cui Lingyi and Bai Wutong could not help but take out their sketch pads. Qin Xiao walked over and realized that the painting technique they used was unique.
Qin Xiao wanted to talk to Bai Wutong, but Chu Tianbao stood at the side covetously. He chickened out and immediately asked Cui Lingyi, “Madam Cui, what technique is this?”
Cui Lingyi knew that he loved painting and explained patiently, “This is smudging, this is spacing…”
Qin Xiao noted them down excitedly. Under the afterglow, their shadows overlapped like an intimate pair.
Seeing this, Lin Yue deliberately said, “Master, don’t you think Young Master
Qin and Madam Cui are very compatible?”
Sheng Huaixuan took a few glances and shook his head seriously. “He’s not worthy. ”
Lin Yue was speechless. Did he have to be so direct?
Sheng Huaixuan even helped him come up with an explanation. “Qin Xiao loves paintings the most. If Madam Cui marries him, she will definitely be neglected. ”
Lin Yue sighed and looked at him worriedly. He really did not understand what Sheng Huaixuan meant.
He clearly had feelings for her, but he had to act like he didn’t care.
Qin Xiao became more and more excited after receiving Cui Lingyi’s guidance. Unknowingly, the two of them were getting closer and closer.
Cui Lingyi did not find anything wrong. When they discussed what she was satisfied with, Qin Xiao could not help but be stunned by her bright and exquisite face.
He recalled Old Master Qin’s words about wanting to marry Cui Lingyi for him, and his face heated up slightly.
Suddenly, Sheng Huaixuan’s gentle voice sounded in his ear. “Young Master
Qin, Master Yu’s stationery shop has produced two new unique oil brushes. Do you want to take a look?”
A unique oil brush!!!
As soon as these words were spoken, Qin Xiao immediately forgot about Cui Lingyi and nodded excitedly. “I want to, thank you for thinking about me,
Brother Sheng.”
Sheng Huaixuan nodded at the surprised Cui Lingyi and left with Qin Xiao.
When they were gone, Bai Wutong smiled meaningfully at Cui Lingyi.
Cui Lingyi raised her eyebrows and smiled.
After Qin Xiao obtained the oil brush from Sheng Huaixuan, he still could not forget Cui Lingyi’s painting skills. As long as he found an opportunity, he would approach Cui Lingyi and discuss with her.
He wanted to look for Bai Wutong, but unfortunately, she and Chu Tianbao were inseparable, like sticky candy stuck together. When he met Chu Tianbao’s cold gaze, he did not dare to approach.
As Cui Lingyi and Qin Xiao got closer, people kept talking about them behind their backs.
Lin Yue saw Qin Xiao looking for Cui Lingyi again. He glanced at Sheng
Huaixuan, who was sitting there in a daze, and said to Stinky, “Shall we go play with Madam Cui?”
Stinky looked at Sheng Huaixuan cleverly. “Daddy should go with us.’
Lin Yue knew that Young Master was helping. He said to Sheng Huaixuan,
“Master, Young Master wants you to bring him to play with Madam Cui.’
Sheng Huaixuan looked at the chubby Stinky, met his dark round eyes, and looked in Cui Lingyi’s direction. He suddenly stood up. “Take Young Master there. I have something on for the time being.”
Lin Yue was dumbfounded. He clearly felt that Sheng Huaixuan was about to rush over to snatch her away just now. What was this about? Was that all?
God, his omnipotent master was too cowardly!
Lin Yue complained in his heart. To avoid Qin Xiao taking advantage of this time, he picked up Little Stinky and rushed over.
Between Stinky and the annoying Qin Xiao, Cui Lingyi naturally chose Stinky.
When Stinky was almost done playing, Sheng Huaixuan came to pick him up.
Cui Lingyi nodded coldly at him, refusing to give him any face.
Just as Cui Lingyi returned to the carriage, Sheng Huaixuan suddenly called out to her, “Madam Cui.”
Cui Lingyi stopped in her tracks and asked calmly, ‘What’s the matter, Old Master Sheng?”
Sheng Huaixuan took out an exquisite box from his sleeve and handed it to Cui Lingyi. “I heard that Madam Cui is quite well-versed in embroidery. The embroidered handkerchief in the box should be helpful to Madam Cui’s skills.”
Cui Lingyi glanced at the box and said coldly, “I didn’t do anything for you, I don’t deserve this. Thank you for your kindness, Old Master Sheng.”
Cui Lingyi turned around and entered the carriage. Lin Yue thought to himself, ‘It’s over, it’s over, it’s completely over. Madam Cui is going to completely dump their master!’
He looked at Sheng Huaixuan resentfully. If only Master had been enlightened a few days earlier.
Sheng Huaixuan did not give up. He placed the box at the entrance of Cui
Lingyi’s carriage. “If Madam Cui refuses to accept it, I won’t dare to trouble you in the future.’
He meant that he would never send Stinky over again.
Great! He even started to threaten her.
However, Cui Lingyi fell for this. The corner of the carriage’s curtain was lifted, and a fair hand took the box in.
Even after putting away the box, Cui Lingyi was clearly very unhappy and refused to speak a word to Sheng Huaixuan.
Lin Yue stood beside Sheng Huaixuan and looked at the corners of his mouth curl up slightly. He found it strange that the old master could still smile at this time..
