After taking a quick look around, Lin Zhujin sat down at the tea table with Li Xiangfu.

Up to now, Lin Zhujin had not seen the shop owner, so Li Xiangfu naturally asked her to sit down, picked up the tea on the tea tray and poured a cup for Lin Zhujin. There was still steam in the cup, and it seemed that it was freshly brewed.

"Wouldn't this be bad?"

Lin Zhujin was not clear about the rules of the store, but Li Xiangfu looked relaxed.

"It's okay. This boss is easy to talk to, and you'd never guess who this boss is."

"Ok?"

From what Li Xiangfu said, she also knew this boss.

She asked, "Is it someone we know?"

Li Xiangfu thought for a while and said, "I don't think I know her, but you should have seen her."

After hearing what Li Xiangfu said, Lin Zhujin became even more curious.

She smiled and was about to continue asking when she heard a crisp bell ringing. It was the bell on the curtain behind the tea table.

A pair of white and slender hands reached out and lifted the door curtain.

The woman who came out next was wearing a beige cheongsam and her hair was braided into a pigtail and fell casually on her shoulders.

When she saw someone, she smiled faintly. She first saw Li Xiangfu, and then saw Lin Zhujin beside Li Xiangfu. The corners of her mouth slightly curved, and she suddenly laughed out loud.

The sound was as clear as that of a ringing bell.

"coincidence."

Lin Zhujin was also stunned. When he saw the appearance, he was stunned for a moment before he responded.

"What a coincidence, haven't seen you for a while."

Li Xiangfu, who was standing beside them, looked between the two people, frowned slightly and asked curiously, "Do you know each other?"

Lin Zhujin smiled helplessly, "I know her, but I really didn't know she opened this store."

The man sat down, feeling a little helpless.

"What a coincidence, but Zhu Jin and I only met once at the New Year's Eve party. We met by chance because of something trivial."

It was a coincidence that after they parted in Tang Palace last time, Lin Zhoujin didn't expect to see Wen Chutang here again.

Li Xiangfu didn't expect there was such a relationship.

But it doesn’t seem strange.

She picked up the teacup and took a sip, then said calmly, "That's right. Chu Tang also has a performance at the New Year's Eve party, so it's normal for you to have met. But if I had known, I wouldn't have been so mysterious."

After he finished speaking, Wen Chutang and Lin Zhujin laughed out loud together.

Wen Chutang cleaned up the tea table and asked with a smile.

"It's fate. I'll treat you to tea today. What would you like to drink?"

Lin Zhujin also drinks tea, but not much, and doesn't know much about tea. "It's all fine, we just don't know much about it."

Wen Chutang hesitated for a while and said, "Then I'd rather have black tea, it tastes better."

Lin Zhujin just nodded in agreement when he suddenly remembered the purpose of coming here today.

Li Xiangfu spoke first, "I almost forgot, we came here today for something important."

"Hmm?" Wen Chutang paused, "Business?"

"Fu Fu said you have some antiques that are hard to find elsewhere. The Wen family's birthday party is coming up in a few days, and I want to see if there's anything I can give as a gift."

Lin Zhujin explained softly. Wen Chutang frowned slightly and thought for a while.

"Mr. Wen probably wouldn't even look down on ordinary items. Although the things I have here are good, they are not precious and may not be able to..." Before she finished speaking, she suddenly stopped, "Wait..."

She put down the teacup in her hand steadily, stood up and went to the back.

After a while she came out with a small box in her hand.

The wooden box has an exquisite and gorgeous appearance, with delicate carvings on the surface. You can smell a faint scent of agarwood before it is opened.

Wen Chutang carefully opened the wooden box and said softly, "This is the best thing I have here, a collector's edition agarwood bracelet. Agarwood is a very precious plant, and it costs too much to make it into a bracelet. Do you see the piece of wood at the back?"

She pointed to the agarwood used as the landscape behind her. Lin Zhoujin and Li Xiangfu nodded, and Li Xiangfu asked tentatively.

"Isn't this bracelet more expensive than that big piece of wood?"

A hint of surprise appeared on Lin Zhujin's face.

Thinking that it shouldn't be necessary, Wen Chutang also shook his head. Just when both of them felt relieved, Wen Chutang said lightly.

"Even a big piece of wood can't compare to this bracelet."

"What???"

Lin Zhujin and Li Xiangfu said in unison and looked at each other in surprise.

Lin Zhujin twitched his lips and said, "I really didn't expect that."

But as a result, Lin Zhujin suddenly felt his wallet was empty.

She touched Li Xiangfu's shoulder and whispered, "I can't afford this either."

The things are good, but it's her problem that she can't afford them.

In addition, he resigned during this period, which made the already poor family even worse off.

Li Xiangfu thought for a while and asked her, "Is it interesting for Wen Yunsheng to marry you?"

Li Xiangfu asked politely, but Lin Zhujin understood what she meant as soon as she heard it.

"You mean the betrothal gift?"

Li Xiangfu shrugged and said nothing. Wen Yunsheng did give her some money when they got married, but she had no intention of using it.

She still kept herself and his things separate out of habit.

The concept of husband and wife being one is too vague for her.

She would probably never be able to spend his money with a clear conscience.

"How's it going? Do you like it?"

Wen Chutang asked calmly and glanced at Lin Zhujin.

She really liked the bracelet, and it suited the old man's status, but the price still made her feel a little hesitant.

"I like it."

Before she could finish the rest of the sentence, Wen Chutang had already wrapped the bracelet and placed it in front of her.

"Take it if you like."

She was so generous as if she was giving a gift of an insignificant item. Lin Zhujin's hand fell on the box, stroking it for a while and said.

"I may have to pay you this price in several installments. Can you accept that?"

Lin Zhujin felt a little embarrassed when he said this, but fortunately he had some friendship with Wen Chutang, and he didn't know whether the other party would agree.

Wen Chutang asked doubtfully, "Price?"

After she finished speaking, she smiled and said, "It doesn't matter what the price is. If you like it, take it. It's free."

"what?"

Lin Zhujin was so surprised that he was a little overwhelmed, and hurriedly pushed the thing back, "How can this be possible? If you sell this, the price will definitely be high."

Wen Chutang waved his hand, "Don't worry, if I say I don't want the money, then I don't want it. I won't let myself lose money."

Besides, this store was not originally hers, so whether she sells it or not depends on her mood.

Take a bracelet to sell to Wen Yunsheng as a favor.

There's no better deal than this.

But Lin Zhujin still felt a little embarrassed, and after hesitating for a while, he said, "Then come to me next time if you need any help."

Wen Chutang pursed his lips and smiled.

Although Li Xiangfu was not aware of Wen Chutang's behavior, she could probably guess that she must have her own considerations.

In the entertainment industry, connections are the most important thing. If you can make connections with Wen Yunsheng, you will basically have nothing to worry about in the industry.
