After Su Banxia ran away from the Lou residence because of her mother's neglect, Lou Wangyue felt guilty towards Su Banxia and therefore did not dare to meet with her.

One problem was that he didn't know how to face Su Banxia, ​​and the other was that he didn't know how to persuade Su Banxia to stop being angry. After all, no one could bear such a thing. Lou Wangyue thought that if he had experienced such a thing, he would definitely not forgive that person easily either.

Therefore, Lou Wangyue was too embarrassed to meet Su Banxia. During this period, although he had been observing Su Banxia's movements, he secretly helped her a lot.

However, he was still a little hesitant when it came to meeting Su Banxia. After all, he hadn't resolved his mother's situation yet, and he had never considered having Su Banxia marry him as a concubine. His mother's words that day were truly offensive.

If Su Mo were willing to act as a peacemaker and clarify things between him and Su Banxia, ​​that would be a good thing.

With that thought in mind, Lou Wangyue lost interest in her business and put down her pen to go outside to meet Su Mo.

Su Mo, who was still sitting and drinking tea, immediately put down her teacup and stood up to respectfully bow to Lou Wangyue when she saw him come out of the inner room.

Seeing this, Lou Wangyue quickly stepped forward to help Su Mo up, and said with a smile:

"Why bother with these formalities between us? Your sister and I were such good friends, but now..."

Lou Wangyue paused at this point, but how could Su Mo, who had lived a second life, not see through his psychological changes?

So Su Mo followed up on Long Wangyue's words and asked:

“Young Master Lou, although I don’t know what happened between you and my sister, I believe that as long as two people are of one mind, there is no knot that cannot be untied.”

As she spoke, Su Mo sat down and sighed helplessly.

"My sister is really something. She likes to befriend men all the time. My mother says she's always looking for something better and has no sense of self-control."

Upon hearing Su Mo's words, Lou Wangyue's expression tensed up, and she sat down as well.

"Su Mo, what do you mean by that? Does your sister have someone else in front of her...?"

Seeing that Lou Wangyue had become interested, Su Mo smiled, put down her teacup, looked at Lou Wangyue, and said:

"Don't you know that my sister has an old flame named Wei Kezhi? By the way, you should know him too."

Lou Wangyue frowned upon hearing Su Mo's words. He already disliked Wei Kezhi. He hadn't expected that Wei Kezhi and Su Banxia actually had that kind of ambiguous relationship.

So what? Wei Kezhi is no match for me. After all, my family background is so much better than his. Anyone would choose me first if they were to compare the two of us.

But now Su Banxia has been angered by her mother and is probably determined to get away from her. After all, in Lou Wangyue's eyes, Su Banxia is not the kind of person who is materialistic and disdains the poor, so he has lost confidence in front of Su Banxia.

Lou Wangyue then looked at Su Mo and asked anxiously:

"And what about your sister and Wei Kezhi..."

Long Wangyue didn't know how to continue the question after saying this, since Su Mo had also said that Su Banxia and Wei Kezhi were just friends and there was no real development between them.

If he were to ask this question rashly, wouldn't that be disrespectful to Su Banxia? So Lou Wangyue paused, unsure of what to say.

Su Mo seemed to sense Lou Wangyue's predicament, so she smiled and said:

"Actually, I still think you're a good match for being my brother-in-law. To be frank, Wei Kezhi is a poor boy who spends all his time hunting in the mountains. What kind of future can he have? If my sister really marries you in the future, she will definitely be able to enjoy a life of leisure and be a young mistress at home. How wonderful that would be."

Su Mo sighed and shook her head helplessly.

"Unfortunately, I'm not so lucky. I've come to the city to ask you to help me find a job. If you find it difficult, that's okay. I'll think of another way."

Lou Wangyue had originally wanted Su Mo to help her reconcile with Su Banxia, ​​and now seeing how sincere Su Mo was, she couldn't refuse her request, so she quickly nodded in agreement.

"Just tell me what's wrong, and I'll do my best to help if I can."

Seeing that Lou Wangyue agreed so quickly, Su Mo hurriedly picked up the teapot, poured Lou Wangyue a cup of tea, and then smiled.

"Actually, I don't have anything important to do. I'm just bored staying at home all day, so I thought I'd come to the city to find some work. I figured since you're the owner of this Wangyue Tower, you must have plenty of jobs you can arrange for me, so I came here to try my luck."

Su Mo paused here, glanced at Lou Wangyue's expression, and then smiled as she said:

"It's okay, even if you can't help me find work, it's fine. I'll go out and look around some more, and I'll eventually find something that suits me."

As she spoke, Su Mo was about to get up and leave.

Upon seeing this, Lou Wangyue immediately stood up and stopped her.

"Don't go, Su Mo. Right now, I really need people for this shop. But you don't know anything else, so why don't you come and help me clean the shop every day? I'll pay you one tael of silver a month. How about that?"

Su Mo was secretly delighted to hear Lou Wangyue's words. She hadn't expected Lou Wangyue to be so generous. Now, as long as she cleaned for him every day, he would pay her one tael of silver a month. It was a really good job. If he were to recruit people in the village, wouldn't they be scrambling for it?

Thinking this, Su Mo smiled and nodded.

"Then I must thank you very much. From now on, I should start calling you 'boss'."

Lou Wangyue found the address rather formal. Thinking about how he would soon become Su Mo's brother-in-law, he smiled and said:

"It's alright. Since you are Banxia's sister, we don't need to be so formal. Just call me Brother Wangyue. It sounds more friendly. And that way, they won't make things difficult for you, a woman, when you work in this shop. Just come and clean the shop every day. If you don't have a place to stay, I can arrange a separate room for you."

Hearing Lou Wangyue's words, Su Mo felt a surge of emotion, so she quickly took Lou Wangyue's hand and smiled happily:

"Brother Wangyue, thank you. Then I won't stand on ceremony. Please arrange a room for me so I can start working today."
