Shi Lingyue smiled and said, "It seems that the princess has come prepared." She rubbed her fingers and thought for a moment. "I see there is a rouge item on the contract. I wonder if the princess has brought it with her today?"

She didn't see the rouge that Yu Guiwan mentioned yesterday, but today she saw it on the contract.

"Fuqiu."

Yu Guiwan called out, and Fuqiu immediately took out the brocade box that she had prepared in advance from her arms, opened the box and placed it in front of Shi Lingyue.

When Shi Lingyue saw Rouge, her eyes lit up and she couldn't wait to pick it up, but Yu Guiwan stopped her in time, "Boss Shi, don't be impatient."

"Huh? Is there a problem?"

Yu Guiwan observed her every move and it didn't seem like she was acting. "Yesterday I mentioned this to Boss Shi. There is indeed something wrong with this rouge. It's better not to let it come into contact with the skin."

Yu Guiwan had already made it very clear, but there was nothing suspicious about Shi Lingyue's expression.

Hearing this, Shi Lingyue stopped and said, "I see." She did not ask any more questions, but picked up the brocade box to check the quality and smell of the rouge.

"It does look good at the moment, but now that the princess has brought a defective product, why do you think I will agree to this rouge business?" She raised her eyebrows and asked. This rouge is indeed good, but before seeing the rouge, wouldn't the risk be too great?

"I believe Boss Shi will believe me."

Yu Guiwan smiled.

"We can eat something first, and Boss Shi can think about it slowly." Yu Guiwan gave Fuqiu a look, and soon, the signature dishes that Yu Guiwan had ordered in advance were served on the table one by one.

"Boss Shi, can I drink?"

Yu Guiwan stood up, poured Shi Lingyue a glass of wine herself, and asked. She naturally knew that Shi Lingyue could drink, after all, she was a businesswoman, and she asked this question knowingly just to make her relax.

She raised her glass, "Princess Chen, please don't underestimate me."

The two of them clinked their glasses and drank it all in one gulp.

Yu Guiwan was not in a hurry and started eating slowly.

Instead, Shi Lingyue held the empty wine glass, looking a little hesitant, but became firm the next second, "Okay, it's decided."

"Pleasant to work with."

She poured herself another glass of wine, raised it and looked at Yu Guiwan.

"It's a pleasure working with you." Yu Guiwan smiled faintly.

After the deal was done, the two of them had a great conversation at the dinner table. Fortunately, both of them had a good alcohol tolerance and they drank just enough and didn't get drunk. "Fuqiu, you take Boss Shi down first," she ordered.

Shi Lingyue waved his hand, stood up shakily, and muttered, "No need, I can walk by myself." After that, he took two steps forward, his steps a little unsteady.

Fuqiu hurried forward to help the man, and when she left, she glanced at Yu Guiwan with some worry.

"Go ahead, I'll wait for you in the private room."

After Yu Guiwan gave his instructions, he tilted his head and looked out the window at the hustle and bustle of traffic.

Suddenly, a familiar breath rushed towards her. The next second, her eyes were covered by a pair of large hands. She heard a voice behind her, "Guess who I am?"

Yu Guiwan chuckled twice. When did Xie Sui become so childish?

She pretended not to recognize Xie Sui's voice and deliberately said, "I can't guess. If you don't let go, I won't be polite." She warned in a low voice.

Xie Sui still didn't let go of her hand. Instead, he lowered his head and leaned close to Yu Guiwan's ear, "I want to see how you're going to be rude."

"Okay, I know it's you." Yu Guiwan said with a helpless smile, reaching out to pull Xie Sui's hand down, "When did you come here?" She could tell from the look of Xie Sui that he was not a recent arrival at Mingyue Tower.

Xie Sui looked into Yu Guiwan's eyes and said nothing.

She immediately guessed, "You didn't follow me out this morning, did you?" Yu Guiwan straightened his expression and asked, "You finally finished your work these past few days, why did you have to follow me everywhere?"

Although Xie Sui's health was much better than before, it was only a temporary solution and not a fundamental cure.

"Don't worry, I'm fine. Instead, you should drink less." Xie Sui looked at Yu Guiwan's slightly red face and advised.

"Okay, it's all up to you."

She readily agreed, her dark eyes rolling with a sly glint. Xie Sui saw that she was pretending to obey, but he didn't expose Yu Guiwan.

"Let's go home."

Xie Sui extended his hand towards Yu Guiwan.

……

The business matter has come to an end for the time being. At present, it seems that Shi Lingyue was not the one who caused the trouble with Yanzhi. She does not look like she is pretending. After several contacts, Yu Guiwan feels that Shi Lingyue is not the kind of person who would do something behind someone's back.

So far, she has been acting in an open and honest manner.

That way, there's only one candidate left.

Princess Roujia, Xie Rou.

But Yu Guiwan is only 60% sure at the moment. Whether it is just one of them or two of them working together remains to be determined. He must find a way to make them reveal clues themselves.

She was plotting in her heart, and Xie Sui did not say anything. He knew that Yu Guiwan had her own ideas, and he would not interfere as long as she could solve the problem. Unless Yu Guiwan's safety was in danger, Xie Sui would not sit idly by, but would act faster than her to eliminate the hidden danger.

Xie Sui thought about the medicinal herbs he had obtained in the past two days. They had been very busy these days and had no time to go back to Yu Mansion. Now that he was free, he naturally had to go back.

"By the way, I just got some high-quality medicinal herbs that will be useful for your injured foot. Why don't we go back to the Yu Mansion tomorrow?"

Yu Guiwan didn't expect that Xie Sui arranged everything so well.

"Xie Sui, thank you..."

Before Yu Guiwan could utter the remaining two words, Xie Sui's soft lips blocked them.

After a while, Xie Sui finally let go of Yu Guiwan and said, "This is your punishment for being so polite to me." He then continued, "Madam, if I hear you being so polite to me again, it won't be so easy next time."

The meaning in Xie Sui's eyes was obvious. Yu Guiwan naturally understood what Xie Sui was talking about. She glared at him and cursed, "Xie Sui, you have no shame!"

*

There was a roar from the attic.

"This is what you call foolproof!"

The woman threw the teacup in her hand, and the man playing the piano below did not dodge. The teacup hit his forehead steadily, and a trace of blood flowed out.

"I worked so hard on this, but in the end it was all in vain."

The woman's eyes were full of resentment. She didn't expect that Yu Guiwan would directly replace rouge with powder. This was something she had never expected.

The music stopped abruptly as the man stopped. He stood up, bowed, and said:

"Master, don't worry. She's just being clever. Who knows if there will be any problems with the rouge she makes after the collaboration is successful?"
