Shuiyun County.

Wu Yaqing, not wanting to dampen her spirits, said, “Auntie, my shop is opening in a few days. Can we talk about other matters after it’s up and running?”

Seeing no urgency in the matter, Wu Wenyu agreed amiably, “What needs to be done? I’ve brought some people over, and we can help.”

Wu Yaqing waved off the offer, “No need, the people I’ve hired are enough. You guys rest well or take a tour around the county if you like.”

Wu Wenyu expressed with some relief, “Your mother would be very pleased to

see how capable you’ve become.”

Wu Yaqing smiled proudly, “Of course.”

At that moment, Song Qingyuan and Xu Guannan walked in, both dressed as scholars and strikingly handsome, instantly drawing everyone’s attention.

When Wu Yaqing saw them, she quickly went up to them. “Welcome, welcome.”

Song Qingyuan introduced Xu Guannan, “This is my classmate Xu Guannan, who has the best small script writing. He can handle any writing needs for your

shop.”

Needing someone to write for various parts of her shop, Wu Yaqing had initially wanted Chu Qingzhi’s help, but given her busy schedule, she decided to ask Chu Qingzhi to write the signboard and find someone else for the rest.

“We’ve met, no need for introductions,” Wu Yaqing warmly stated.

Caught off guard, Song Qingyuan looked between them, “I didn’t realize.” Xu Guannan clarified gracefully, “I met her through knowing Chu Qingzhi, not in the way you’re thinking.”

“My mistake,” Song Qingyuan shifted the topic to ease the awkwardness, “Let’s not delay any longer, Yaqing, you direct us.”

“Okay.”

Wu Wenyu noticed Song Qingyuan’s gaze on Wu Yaqing was brighter than usual. Considering Song Qingyuan’s reputable background, scholarly achievements, and status as a scholar of Yunfei School, she thought him to be a much better match than Lu Yichen.

Being informed of Wu Yaqing’s social interactions from the start, Wu Wenyu was well aware of the details.

After settling Wu Wenyu, Wu Yaqing took the two men to attend to the shop’s preparations.

Meanwhile, Lu Yichen arrived in Shuiyun County, rested a bit at an inn, and

then went to find Wu Yaqing.

Unexpectedly, upon reaching the shop, he saw Wu Yaqing in Song Qingyuan’s embrace.

The situation was as follows…

While the shop was being renovated, Wu Yaqing nearly got hit by some unstable wood. Song Qingyuan pulled her away, using his body to shield her from the falling lumber.

From Lu Yichen’s perspective, it looked like an intimate embrace between the

two.

Lu Yichen flew over and kicked the wood away with his foot. Then, he pulled Wu Yaqing over. Although he was somewhat angry, he was still concerned about Wu Yaqing. “Are you alright?”

Startled initially, Wu Yaqing’s fear was replaced by joy upon hearing Lu Yichen’s voice, leading her to excitedly hug him, “You finally came to see me.” Embraced tightly by Wu Yaqing, any irritation Lu Yichen might have felt dissipated, “I came to you as soon as I finished my business in the capital.

Wu Wenyu, not pleased with the public display of affection, pulled Wu Yaqing away, “What’s this behavior in broad daylight?”

“I’m just too happy,” Wu Yaqing said as she introduced Lu Yichen to everyone. After the introduction, Wu Wenyu’s face darkened further, and she pulled Wu Yaqing behind her. “Lu Yichen, since you’re here, let me make it clear to you that Yaqing’s mother does not agree with you two being together.” Given his background, Lu Yichen didn’t place much importance on elders’ opinions. After hearing this, his expression remained unchanged, and he simply asked Wu Yaqing, “What do you think?”

Wu Yaqing confidently told him, “I want to be with you.

Having been abandoned since childhood left Lu Yichen feeling very insecure. Now that Wu Yaqing had chosen him, his gaze softened significantly, “Leave this matter to me to handle.”

Wu Yaqing, anxious, asked, “How will you handle it?”

Her mother wasn’t easily dealt with, or else she wouldn’t have sent her aunt over specifically.

Lu Yichen, with a cold expression but speaking gently, reassured, “Just leave it to me, don’t worry.”

Hearing their conversation, Wu Wenyu felt like the villain breaking up a pair of lovers. “Yaqing, you’re young, don’t be deceived by him; he’s not a good

person.”

Wu Yaqing didn’t take Wu Wenyu’s warning, “Auntie, Yichen came all the way from the capital to see me. Let’s not talk about anything else. Let me have a meal with him, at least.”

Wu Wenyu couldn’t really refuse and slowly let go of Wu Yaqing’s hand, “You wouldn’t deceive me, would you?”

“I wouldn’t.” Wu Yaqing spoke earnestly, “Auntie, 1 know what you’re worried about. I swear I won’t hurt my mother or anyone who cares about me. Don’t worry.”

Wu Wenyu was concerned that Wu Yaqing might elope with Lu Yichen but felt reassured after hearing her words, “Come back after the meal.

Wu Yaqing nodded with a smile. “Yes.”

Seeing them like this, Song Qingyuan felt a pang of disappointment. It turned out Yaqing had liked someone else all along, and that person, whether in terms of appearance, skills, or status, was beyond his reach.

After watching Wu Yaqing and Lu Yichen leave, he left the shop disheartened.

Wu Yaqing and Lu Yichen chose a nearby restaurant. It was still early for lunch, and the place was empty, but the chefs were already preparing in the kitchen.

Wu Yaqing cheerfully ordered a table full of dishes and then moved her seat next to Lu Yichen, “Yichen, when did you arrive in Shuiyun County?”

Lu Yichen, who had been missing Wu Yaqing terribly, couldn’t help but pull her closer, “I got here after dawn, went to an inn to bathe and rest a bit, then came to find you.”

Wu Yaqing, concerned, asked, “So you haven’t had breakfast?

Hearing Wu Yaqing’s caring words softened Lu Yichen’s heart, “No, I’ll eat more in a bit.”

Wu Yaqing said, “Qingzhi said skipping breakfast is bad for health. You can t do this next time.”

Lu Yichen smiled lightly, “I know, I’ll listen to you.”

Wu Yaqing looked up eagerly, “How long do you plan to stay in Shuiyun County?”

Lu Yichen tenderly replied, “For a day. How about 1 take you out for fun after we eat?”

Wu Yaqing got excited, “Yes, that sounds great.”

“I’ll accompany you however you want to play,” Lu Yichen said with a slight smile, always feeling relaxed and happy when with Yaqing.

After chatting for a while, Wu Yaqing couldn’t help but ask, “How do you plan to solve the issue between us?”

“You’ll know when the time comes,” he said, genuinely liking Wu Yaqing and not wanting her to face criticism, so he planned to find a way for them to be together openly and blessedly..
