Qin Yu received the letter the next morning.

He glanced at the contents of the letter and frowned.

The letter stated that Xu Shaoting's situation in Yuzhou was not going well due to matters concerning the Chamber of Commerce.

A group of local bullies blocked Xu Shaoting's project and even injured him.

Liu Zheng, the prefect of Yuzhou, did not appear.

I request Qin Yu to think of a solution.

Qin Yu was helpless, but he knew that things were probably even more serious than that.

Otherwise, Xu Shaoting wouldn't have written a letter to himself!

Linghu Bai noticed it too.

"But what happened?" he asked, moving closer to her.

He tried to see clearly, but Qin Yu saw right through him.

"It's nothing, I'm just going out for a bit!"

Qin Yu put the letter away and went to the construction site first.

Ever since Qin Yu reprimanded those two people about their affair.

Zhu Laifu at the construction site no longer dared to cause trouble.

Those who work on the construction site every day should be warned not to have any bad intentions.

Without those two troublemakers, the workers became more diligent.

However, it will require approximately ten households, and the project will take a relatively long time.

It won't be completed in less than six months.

After leaving the construction site, I went to Yunlaiju.

Manager Du was not there; the manager came out to greet her instead.

When they saw Qin Yu arrive, their faces were full of worry.

"Manager Du is not here?"

Qin Yu did not stay at Yunlai Residence for long.

After all, it is Xu Shaoting's own private property.

She doesn't come often; she only comes once every ten days or half a month.

So they had no idea that Manager Du was not in the store.

The person in charge quickly replied.

"Manager Du went to Yuzhou, saying that the young master had encountered some trouble and asked him to go and help!"

"With Master Xu here, you can ask him if you need anything!"

The butler gestured respectfully.

Upon hearing that Master Xu was upstairs, Qin Yu stopped in his tracks as he was about to ascend the stairs.

"Since Manager Du isn't here, then I'll..."

Before he could even utter the words "go back," he saw Master Xu calling out from the railing on the second floor.

"Since Miss Qin is here, why don't you stay and have a word with this old man?"

After Manager Du went to Yuzhou, Master Xu would often come to the shop.

Firstly, I was worried about him, and secondly, I had nothing else to do and wanted to help my son with his tasks.

This was also the first time he had met Qin Yu.

I was attracted to the woman's appearance at first glance.

Amazing! She really is a beauty. At least I've never seen such a face here.

Seeing this, he no longer doubted why his son liked her.

She is truly beautiful.

Qin Yu hadn't expected to be discovered by Master Xu. He had originally planned to leave quietly, but now he had no choice but to stop.

In the hall on the second floor, Master Xu sat opposite Qin Yu.

Approaching fifty, he doesn't look old at all.

"Miss Qin is unwilling to see this old man?"

"Mr. Xu, you misunderstand. You are an elder, and I was worried that it would be impolite to approach you so abruptly!"

Qin Yu kept his eyes focused on his nose and his nose focused on his heart.

This was the first time she had met this old man.

It was originally a business deal with Xu Shaoting.

Naturally, she didn't want to spend too much time with his family.

It would be best if we didn't see each other.

"Shao Ting trusts you a lot, and I've wanted to meet you for a long time!"

Master Xu had indeed wanted to meet this woman for a long time.

However, Xu Shaoting was unwilling to let him see him, so he had no choice but to give up.

"Mr. Xu, I don't know what Young Master Xu said to you, but please don't misunderstand, Young Master Xu and I are business partners!"

"Haha... He didn't say anything, he just said you're amazing, and how are the kids at home?"

When Master Xu saw Qin Yu's attitude, he was reminded of the Lantern Festival.

The disappointment felt when her son returned.

Qin Yu didn't pay attention to his questions and simply answered them.

"Everything is fine, Mr. Xu. If there's nothing else, I'll head back now!"

Qin Yu felt that as an elder, he had already met him.

With Xu Shaoting not around, it's not appropriate for her to stay too long.

So I'm getting up to leave!

"Miss Qin, there are indeed some things I want to tell you!"

Seeing Qin Yu's attitude, Master Xu also voiced his own thoughts.

"Mr. Xu, please speak freely about matters of business!"

Mr. Xu chuckled awkwardly twice.

"It's not entirely about business. Actually, the reason I've wanted to see you for so long is because of Shao Ting!"

"Shao Ting is not young anymore. He used to travel around and enjoy life. In the past few years, he came back and took over the restaurant. The business is doing quite well. I didn't expect to run into you!"

Qin Yu roughly knew what he was going to say.

"Shao Ting has feelings for you, and I haven't objected to him. So Miss Qin, you don't need to worry about this old man!"

Master Xu initially objected because Qin Yu's husband had just passed away at that time.

Moreover, Qin Yu is beautiful, but she has a child and is a widow.

His son was handsome and dignified.

He couldn't stand the thought of taking a fancy to a widow; deep down, he felt that Qin Yu was not good enough for his son.

But when his son told him that the business was done with Qin Yu and that the chamber of commerce was Qin Yu's idea, he was surprised to learn that his son had told him the truth.

He knew Qin Yu was a talented person.

But he still didn't like it, even though Xu Shaoting did.

His son's clear stance, including his refusal to get married, made him waver.

He always thought that Qin Yu was unwilling because he was interfering.

Now that he has seen them, he wants to explain that he had no intention of stopping them.

Qin Yu almost laughed when he heard this.

Master Xu thought that the reason they weren't together was because he was worried about him.

Qin Yu stood up and bowed to Xu's father.

“Mr. Xu, you’re overthinking it. If I were interested in Xu Shaoting, your opposition would be meaningless to me. I know his feelings, and I rejected him from the beginning, not because of anyone else!”

“After my husband passed away, I never thought about getting married again, let alone about love. Every day I just think about how to earn more money so that the people around me can live a better life. Even if I really plan to get married, that person will not be Xu Shaoting!”

"What? You think my son isn't good enough for you?" Mr. Xu was clearly displeased by these words.

They thought Qin Yu looked down on their son.

“Xu Shaoting is a very good person, with a good personality and a good family background. He is considered very well-off in Qingshui County. However, my relationship with him is that of business partners, and it will only ever be that kind of relationship.”

"I believe that Xu Shaoting's appreciation for me is merely the appreciation between business partners."

Qin Yu does not deny Xu Shaoting's feelings for her.

Because Xu Shaoting had already expressed it to him.

But she knew that Xu Shaoting's feelings for her were more of admiration and respect!

"Master Xu, if there's nothing else, I'll take my leave now!"

After Qin Yu finished speaking, he nodded slightly to Master Xu.

He turned and walked away.

As Xu's father watched Qin Yu's retreating figure, his expression returned to normal.

He laughed after a long while.

It took him a long time to utter a single sentence!

"I trust my son's judgment; he won't be wrong!"

Qin Yu was unaware that he went directly to the workshop after leaving Yunlai Residence.
