Sun Jingfu announced loudly, "Ladies and gentlemen, today is the first day of Qiuzhuangxie's opening. Welcome to all of you!"

"If any item from Qiuzhuang Xie is defective and it is our shop's fault, we will unconditionally refund your money and provide compensation as appropriate, depending on the specific circumstances."

Upon hearing this, everyone's faces lit up with joy.

The originally planned thirty gift boxes were quickly snapped up.

The store became unusually lively for a time.

"Which brand of lip gloss does *** use?"

Sun Jingfu paused for a moment, then finally raised his head, scanning the crowd before him, his gaze finally settling on the person who had asked the question.

"I don't know where you all heard about this, but we are just a shop that focuses on making lip balm, and *** has nothing to do with us."

"Before opening today, apart from the orders we personally negotiated and the samples we provided, no one else had used our lip balm."

The moment the words were spoken, the store erupted in an uproar.

"So that means *** never used your lip balm at all?"

Sun Jingfu nodded. "You could say that."

"Tch, it was a misunderstanding. I came here specifically for the color of ***'s lipstick."

"Exactly, exactly. If it weren't for ***, who would come here?"

"Let's go, let's go, there's nothing more to see."

Discontented voices rose one after another from the crowd.

Soon, one by one, the people present left.

In no time, the venue was much emptied.

"Manager Sun, almost half of them have left, aren't you worried?"

Sun Jingfu glanced at the man slowly, "What's the rush? This is something that can't be rushed. Besides, only what's left now is for Qiu Zhuangxie."

Inside the compartment.

"We definitely made the right choice in choosing him; he handled everything perfectly."

Sang Luan spoke softly.

After saying that, Meng Youning slowly lowered the beaded curtain in front of her. "Indeed, we can rest assured that Qiu Zhuangxie is being taken care of by him."

She paused, a hint of worry in her eyes, "But we should still investigate the matter of ***. If it wasn't us, then someone must have leaked information, which led to this situation."

Sang Luan picked up a piece of pastry in front of her, took a small bite, and looked satisfied. "Isn't Asheng's friend someone close to ***? Let's ask her about it later."

Meng Youning nodded slightly, "That's fine too."

She casually reached into her right sleeve, took something out, and placed it in front of Sang Luan. "This is something I just made. Try it."

Sang Luan took it without hesitation, opened it and looked at it, her eyes full of surprise, "Wow, it's berry powder matcha jujube paste yam cake, I haven't had this in a long time."

As she spoke, she picked up a piece and ate it. "Is it still warm?"

Meng Youning stared at her intently. "Yes, I know you like to eat this. I figured that in the Prime Minister's residence, Madam Liu probably wouldn't allow you to eat too much. I figured that after so long, you must be craving it."

Seeing that Sang Luan was enjoying her meal, Meng Youning smiled sincerely. "I was thinking of coming to see you today, so I borrowed the small kitchen early this morning and made some special food for you. I almost ran into Qi Ran this morning, otherwise he would have taken it from me again."

As she spoke, she laughed out loud.

Sang Luan paused, remaining silent for a moment.

She glanced at Meng Youning, who was still smiling faintly, and her eyes instantly became complicated.

She slowly put down the berry pink matcha jujube paste yam cake in her hand, her eyes fixed on Meng Youning.

"Ningning." Sang Luan pondered for a moment, then asked directly, "You wouldn't have fallen for Qi Ran already, would you?"

Meng Youning's expression changed, which was rare for her.

As soon as Sang Luan finished speaking, she couldn't help but think of the original owner's ending.

Whether it's Feng Hengzhi or Qi Ran, any feelings they had while the white moonlight heroine was not back.

After the white moonlight heroine returns, they will all disappear without a trace.

At that time, their world will revolve around the real female lead, and if anyone makes the other unhappy, the two of them will directly take action to resolve the issue.

Meng Youning silently pulled herself out of her thoughts, her expression becoming much more resolute.

She reached out and gently stroked Sang Luan's nose. "No, I haven't forgotten our goal. I still want to travel the world with you, eat all kinds of delicious food, and see all kinds of handsome men."

Sang Luan felt much more at ease and finished the berry powder matcha jujube paste yam cake in her hand in one go.

Looking up again, she saw that Meng Youning was propping her head up with one hand, her eyelashes drooping slightly, and she had already fallen asleep.

Sang Luan raised an eyebrow slightly. With all the noise outside, how could Ningning be sleeping so soundly?

She didn't think much of it, lowered her head, and continued with her own business.

Suddenly, Meng Youning frowned and coughed violently.

In the blink of an eye, her fair and delicate face flushed red.

If you look closely, you can still faintly see a bluish-purple tinge on her cheeks.

At this moment, Meng Youning looked extremely uncomfortable.

My right hand instinctively went to my chest, as if I wanted to catch my breath.

Unexpectedly, the next moment, Meng Youning's brows furrowed even more tightly.

Sang Luan raised her eyes and said casually, "Ningning, there are only the two of us now, so you don't need to cough so hard. Save your energy to go back to the manor and deal with Qi Ran."

She leaned forward and blinked. "Wow, you've got a pretty good control over your facial expressions."

As soon as she finished speaking, Meng Youning coughed up a mouthful of blood.

The ground was instantly stained with a strange color.

A bright color clung to the corner of Meng Youning's mouth, standing out prominently on her small, palm-sized face.

Immediately afterwards, Meng Youning closed her eyes tightly and fell straight to the ground with a thud.

Sang Luan's eyelids twitched, and she quickly realized what was happening.

She took two steps forward and gently lifted Meng Youning's head.

She tugged at Meng Youning's sleeve, shaking it slightly, "Ningning, Ningning!"

Her gaze darkened slightly. When did Ningning's condition become so serious?

Without thinking, Sang Luan picked the person up in her arms.

After giving Sun Jingfu a perfunctory greeting, Sang Luan led Meng Youning out through the side door.

"What's going on here?"

Yu Po, standing at the door, couldn't help but ask.

Sang Luan looked up at what was in front of her, gritted her teeth, and decisively changed to another alley. "Let's go to the clinic first."

Her eyes were filled with anxiety as she ran towards the clinic, saying to the person in her arms, "Ningning, you must hold on, we'll be there soon."

Seeing Sang Luan's anxiety, Yu Po couldn't help but feel a hint of worry in her eyes.

She could only purse her lips and silently follow beside him.

After Sang Luan and the others left, at a corner away from where they had been.

A woman dressed in a light purple dress glanced up and her gaze fell on Sang Luan's departing figure.

"Master, what are you looking at?"

Beside her stood two very pretty maids, who occasionally glanced around.

The woman narrowed her eyes slightly and waved her hand gently. "It's nothing. Consider today your day off. Don't worry about me. I'll go back by myself later."

The two maids looked at each other, but dared not move.

The woman immediately exclaimed, "Don't worry, I'll be fine."

She paused, her tone dangerous, "What? Or are you saying I can't boss you around anymore?"

The two maids murmured a few times.

Seeing this, the woman looked around, pointed to the "Autumn Makeup" signboard not far away, and spoke again, "Come pick me up here at 5 PM."

After saying that, the two of them each took a step back, looking much more relieved.

The woman in purple lowered her eyes, lifted her foot, and followed in the direction Sang Luan had just left.
