Chapter 111 - Friends Only
After staying at the Villa for a few days, Yun Qin was worried about the Silk Cloth Pavilion, so she anxiously went back to take care of the matters at the store.
Gu Qingmeng knew that Yun Qin was busy with other matters of the Silk Cloth Pavilion, so she did not stay for long.
Li Yulin stood behind Gu Qingmeng, and looked at them quietly with his clear eyes. Yun Qin knew that her personality was relatively cold, so she walked in front of her and said, "Yulin, come and play with Old Meng together with me in the Silk Cloth Pavilion when you're free."
"Yeah, yeah." Qing Yao also nodded, because after a few days, she realised that although Li Yulin looked like he was not easy to get close to, he was still a good person, and was not like those girls who could use their hearts.
Li Yulin's heart was moved, he never thought that the two would be so friendly and passionate. She glanced at Gu Qingmeng, then looked at Yun Qin, and finally nodded towards him in thanks.
When Yun Qin returned to the Prince Mansion, she started to draw the diagrams for the next month. Recently, she had had quite a bit of inspiration.
On the second day, Silk Cloth Pavilion opened for business again. There was an old customer who paid the bill and asked, "Why is Silk Cloth Pavilion closing for the next few days? My youngest daughter thought that Princess was not selling clothes, and anxiously cried on the ground. "
"A few days ago, my Manager went to attend our old friend's feast, so he temporarily closed the door. Thank you for thinking about it, Madam Zhang." Yu Er said with a smile, and took out a green hairpin with a pearl on it from a box, and gave it to Lady Zhang, "Treat this as a present for Miss."
When Lady Zhang received it, her distant eyebrows arched happily, making her look especially amiable.
In the afternoon, Yun Qin was busy at the counter settling accounts. She knocked her head with a headache: "Yu Er, did you find a manager who knew how to settle accounts last time?"
"Not yet. This servant will go take a look later." said, seeing her master's headache, she too became anxious.
Yun Qin raised her head and looked outside the door. Gu Qingmeng was dressed in a red robe and was waving his fan as he strode in. Behind him was a Li Yulin who did not like the sound of his footsteps.
He never thought that they would arrive so quickly. Yun Qin was pleasantly surprised, and went out to welcome Li Yulin.
Seeing that she treated Li Yulin so intimately, Gu Qingmeng closed his fan and poked her: "Usually when you see me, why aren't you this enthusiastic?"
How could this be compared? Yun Qin only wanted to roll his eyes.
Without waiting for Yun Qin's reply, Gu Qingmeng tactfully replied: "You guys chat, I'm going to the Fat Pink Pavilion."
Just as Qing Yao sent a guest away, she ran in front of Li Yulin and greeted her excitedly. However, she only responded to her with an emotionless nod.
Knowing her temper, Qing Yao did not get angry. He turned around and brought the iced Yang Mei over to her for her to eat, "You must be really hot coming over from Gold and Silver Villa. Eat some Yang Mei to relieve the heat."
"Thank you." Li Yulin said indifferently, but he did not have any intention of eating it. As for why this lazy brat was so diligent today, it was because Yun Qin had promised her that if she could sell ten sets of clothes today, Yun Qin would weave a unique Xia Yi for her.
Yun Qin had a special liking towards girls who wore clothes that she sold. She had to admit, Li Yulin's temperament was very suitable to be her model.
Yun Qin's gaze landed on a water coloured embroidered jacket dress that was hung not too far away from her. She looked at Li Yulin and her eyes lit up, she then went over to take off the clothes, and said to Li Yulin: "Try this."
Li Yulin waved his hand.
Yun Qin's attitude was passionate, and insisted on asking her to try it out. Li Yulin was helpless, but he could not refuse her, and in the end, agreed to go and change.
After a while, she changed her clothes and walked out.
Her long and narrow eyes were drooping slightly, covering up the complicated thoughts in the oculi's mind. The corner of her eyes revealed a hint of charm, and the water color of her steps gently swayed her head, making her lips curve slightly, to the point of being extremely beautiful. Unnaturally, she swayed her head a little as she walked towards Yun Qin, pursing her lips.
"This dress is like it's custom-made for you. It's really beautiful." Yun Qin laughed, seeing that Li Yulin seemed to have something to say, the smile on his face faded as he asked in concern, "What's wrong?"
"We... Can we talk alone? " From the very first moment she had met Yun Qin, she had felt that she was a person who was easy to get along with.
Yun Qin was suspicious, and did not understand why they needed to chat privately, but she nodded in the end and brought Li Yulin to a room in the backyard.
"Go ahead." Yun Qin said.
Li Yulin stared into her eyes, which revealed a determined look: "Can you tell me about you and Gu Qingmeng?"
"Old Meng?" How could there be a story between him and I? But if you ask how do you know him, hmm, he can be considered my savior, he saved me a few times and then by chance, I ended up living in the Gold and Silver Villa. I didn't expect that after so many years of friendship between him and the Prince. Yun Qin said straightforwardly, thinking that Madam Gu had the idea to get Li Yulin and Gu Qingmeng together, and looking at how Li Yulin seemed to have a good impression of him, Yun Qin suddenly understood, thinking that she had misunderstood something, and immediately explained, "Don't misunderstand, Gu Qingmeng and I are only friends, I already have a husband."
Li Yulin nodded. She had heard Aunt Gu mention the matter of Yun Qin staying in the villa, and for some reason, the moment he saw Yun Qin, she gave off a feeling of wanting to get close to him. Li Yulin grabbed her hand and asked: "Are you willing to listen to my story with him?"
"Of course."
"We've known each other for more than ten years. At that time, we were both very young, but my mother told me to call him big brother. I didn't call him big brother, so he said it's fine if he doesn't call me that. In the future, he'll be my wife and call me husband …" Li Yulin said as his face reddened.
was surprised that Gu Qingmeng had always been an expert at flirting.
"Later, after we had been together for a while, he used to take me out to play and eat good food. He always said he would marry me one day, and his words were imprinted on my mind, and I held on to the idea of marrying him at the Council until now. I have no parents, I only have him. " She knew the difference between her and Yun Qin's personality was like heaven and earth, and she also knew that Gu Qingmeng liked her, but she was still unable to control her own heart.
Yun Qin held her hand, thinking back to the scene of Gu Qingmeng forcing him to marry her, and felt that it wouldn't be difficult for Li Yulin's wish to come true.
Isn't it just marrying Gu Qingmeng!
"Gu Qingmeng loves to be free and does not like to be controlled. As long as you do your best and do not interfere in his marriage in the future." Yun Qin said, "He is very perfunctory towards his own marriage, as long as Madam Gu can come and remind him."
