"Your Highness, I would like to pay my respects to my younger brother first."
As they were about to enter the city, He Yuyan lifted the curtain and spoke to Lu Hanting outside.
Lu Hanting, who was about to give the order to head towards Yongchun Lane, was taken aback. She wanted to go to Lingjiu Mountain?
Seeing his slightly stiff expression, He Yuyan asked in surprise, "What, you can't go?"
Considering that today was the opening day of Wu Weiwei's shop, Lu Hanting hesitated for a moment.
"It's alright, I'll go with you!"
He Yuyan lowered the curtain, feeling somewhat depressed.
Yongchun Lane.
Amidst the deafening sounds of gongs and drums, two teams, one performing lion dance and the other dragon dance, gathered on a street in front of Weiyuan Garden and danced together.
At Wu Weiwei's request, the shop's main entrance was made of heavy rosewood.
The wood has a deep color and fine texture, and you can smell a faint fragrance when you get close.
She ordered a pair of white marble lions to be placed on either side of Wei Garden.
The lion carvings are exquisite, majestic, and solemn, as if guarding this luxurious place.
Pedestrians and locals stopped to watch.
As the drums and gongs ceased, the crowd saw a stunningly beautiful woman being escorted as she stepped down from a sedan chair in the distance.
The surroundings immediately fell silent.
Today, Wu Weiwei wore a bright and eye-catching fuchsia butterfly-patterned brocade dress.
The colors were as fiery as a raging fire, as radiant as the morning glow, and the flowing robes resembled burning flames dancing in the wind.
Everyone noticed that her skin was as delicate as jade, as white and smooth as snow, and seemed so fragile that it could be broken with a touch.
Supported by her maid, she walked gracefully into the crowd.
"Look, this is Wu Weiwei, the concubine of the heir of the Marquis of Dingguo's mansion."
"That's right, she opened this Wei Garden. I heard she invested a lot of money in it."
It is said that she even mortgaged the estate given to her by the Crown Prince to open this beauty and medicine clinic, which shows that she went to great lengths to do so.
If we can't get it back, wouldn't we suffer a huge loss...?
"What's there to be afraid of if we can't get it back? They still have the powerful Prince backing them up..."
Everyone was talking about it.
"Greetings to the master!"
Lin Fan, his apprentice, and the two managers of Wei Garden spoke in unison.
Good morning!
Wu Weiwei looked around and found that almost everyone had arrived.
Let's cut the ribbon!
Led by Wu Weiwei, the group heard a "snap" sound as they worked together to cut the red ribbon in their hands.
"I hereby announce that our Wei Garden is officially open for business today."
Everyone applauded, while Wanqiu and Lingfu carried a basket.
The basket was filled with lucky money.
The two grabbed a handful of lucky money and threw it into the crowd.
"Wow, come quick, everyone pick it up! Boss Wu is handing out lucky money..."
Amidst the lively chatter, Chen Furong arrived late.
She spotted Lin Fan in the crowd at a glance.
"What a coincidence, we meet again."
Upon seeing Chen Furong walk up to him, Lin Fan's expression turned cold.
"Miss Chen."
Lin Fan cupped his hands in greeting and gave only a cold reply.
"So you're the capable Manager Lin that Sister Weiwei was talking about. I originally thought you were some sickly young master from a wealthy family."
Chen Furong said, trying to sound humorous.
Pang Tuo and Qing Zhu, who were listening nearby, were both suppressing their laughter.
Is this Ms. Chen out of her mind?
They liked their master, yet they dared to mock him.
Sure enough, her words made Lin Fan's already pale face turn even paler.
"If Miss Chen doesn't know how to speak, she should keep quiet."
"Um, did I say something wrong?"
Chen Furong felt wronged. Wasn't she praising his beauty as being like that of Xi Shi?
On the day they first met, she saw him looking frail and weak after she bumped into him.
She wondered if this person, who was so weak, had come to Weiyuan for medical treatment.
"Miss Chen, I am a man, please be careful with your words."
"Oh...sorry, I used the wrong word."
Chen Furong was embarrassed.
If only she had studied harder when her father told her to study more, she would never have made a fool of herself in front of the person she liked.
Looking at Lin Fan's cold expression, Chen Furong suddenly felt afraid of him for some reason.
To avoid saying anything wrong again, she simply obeyed and kept quiet.
After Wu Weiwei led the first group of noble ladies inside and made arrangements, she came out and saw the strange scene of Lin Fan and Chen Furong standing at the door like door gods.
"Junior sister, I thought you would come to cut the ribbon with me today, but I didn't expect you to be late."
"Sister Weiwei."
Upon seeing Wu Weiwei, Chen Furong finally regained her composure.
She strode towards Wu Weiwei.
"What's wrong? You look stiff all over, like you've been frozen in place."
Chen Furong chuckled and gestured towards Lin Fan with her lips.
"I'm trying to build a relationship with your forest ranger."
When Wu Weiwei heard Chen Furong say that she was developing feelings for Lin Fan, she clicked her tongue in amazement.
“Sister Weiwei, you value profit over friendship. He is clearly your subordinate, yet you haven’t revealed a single piece of information about him to me.”
If I hadn't come today, I don't know when you would have told me.
Chen Furong pouted, pretending to be angry.
Wu Weiwei felt completely innocent.
She looked at Chen Furong helplessly: "Junior sister, who was it that said they were giving up on him and wishing him well that day? Why did they change their minds again today?"
She had initially thought that Chen Furong had truly given up, which was why she stopped telling her about Lin Fan.
"Sister Weiwei, please help me!"
After I went back that day, I thought about it a lot and realized that I might not be inferior to his sweetheart.
You have no idea how long these past few days have felt. Every morning when I wake up, all I can think about is him.
Just seeing him for a moment made me feel like I'd been resurrected..."
Wu Weiwei: "..."
She suddenly felt that Chen Furong was beyond saving.
Looking at the intense gaze that Chen Furong was casting at him, Lin Fan felt as if he were being stared at by a fierce fly.
Just as he was about to leave with his apprentice, a commotion suddenly broke out in the street.
"Look, it's Prince Min! Prince Min has arrived."
"Today is the grand opening of Wei Garden, what is Prince Min doing here?"
"Do you think he might be angry because the brothel was raided, and he brought people here to cause trouble..."
The crowd was buzzing with discussion, all speculating about the purpose of Prince Min's visit.
Despite the arrival of Prince Min, Wu Weiwei still wore a warm smile.
Chen Furong, on the other hand, darkened her face the moment she saw Prince Min.
"Prince Min, what brings you here?"
Under the protection of a group of guards, Prince Min strode over with an air of indifference, as if he didn't recognize any of his relatives.
Ignoring Chen Furong, Min Wang looked at the smiling Wu Weiwei.
"What, now that Master Wu has acquired Yihong Courtyard, I, the former boss, am not even welcome to offer my congratulations?"
Prince Min held a folding fan, looking dashing and debonair.
Seeing his gaze towards Wei Garden, and recalling the image of that beautiful figure she had just seen weeping alone, Wu Weiwei noticed his expression.
That's when I realized his intention in coming today.
