C307 Because he has money

"Uncle Liu, help me go to the pharmacy and get some cold medicine. My throat hurts a little."

"Alright, boss, please sit for a moment. I'll be going now."

The sky started to brighten. Liu Ruo Qing looked at the sparse crowd outside and couldn't help but be stunned.

Very quickly, Uncle Liu grabbed a few bags for her from the pharmacy, but seeing that Liu Ruo Qing was in a daze, she walked up worriedly and asked: "Boss, what happened? Why did you sit outside for the whole night?"

Liu Ruo Qing regained her senses, facing Uncle Liu's concerned gaze, she smiled and shook her head, "It's nothing, help me fry the medicine."

"Alright."

Uncle Liu returned to the back hall and placed the medicine on the stove to simmer it. He then brought her a bowl of ginger soup and said, "Boss, drink the ginger soup first to warm your body."

"Thank you, Uncle Liu."

Liu Ruo Qing brought Jiang Tang over and thanked Uncle Liu.

Before they reached the restaurant and since there were no customers, Uncle Liu sat down in front of her and asked, "What's wrong, Boss, did you have an argument with Young Master?"

The young master that Uncle Liu spoke of, was naturally Yan Yuan.

Liu Ruo Qing drank the ginger soup and paused for a bit. Then, she shook her head lightly and said, "No."

Uncle Liu didn't care whether Liu Ruo Qing's words were true or not, he only laughed lightly and said: "Between husband and wife, it's just the end of the bed fighting. If you really quarrel with Young Master, both sides will have to take a step back, don't let such small matters hurt their relationship."

He looked at Liu Ruo Qing, his eyes filled with amusement, "For Young Noble to be able to purchase a restaurant for you with so much money, not just anyone can do that."

Uncle Liu was the middle-aged man that received them when they bought the restaurant that day.

Hearing that, Liu Ruo Qing lowered her eyes and laughed: "Because he has money."

"Hur hur."

Uncle Liu waved his hands in disapproval and smiled. "Not all rich men are so generous. Besides, I can see that the young master really loves you. When I bought this building that day, I saw his eyes never leaving your face for too long."

Uncle Liu's words made Liu Ruo Qing's heart throb in pain.

Right now, her mind was filled with those sweet memories of Yan Yuan. The more she thought about those memories, the harder it hurt in her heart to breathe.

In the past, she had told Yan Yuan that if she were to leave him in the future, she did not know what would happen to her.

She remembered that Yan Yuan had told her that she could only stay by his side for the rest of her life.

However, she had thought about it all night, and decided that if she could be with another woman, she would rather withdraw quietly than be so generous.

"Uncle Liu, go and see if the medicine has been fried. My throat is really sore, I can't even swallow it."

"Alright, I'll go take a look."

Seeing that Liu Ruo Qing was not willing to talk more about her and Yan Yuan, Uncle Liu guessed that the two of them must be arguing, so he did not create any more trouble for Liu Ruo Qing. He got up and quickly ran to the kitchen.

On Yan Yuan's side, he was actually not sleeping well that night, and was in a half-asleep state. When he woke up, the time had almost passed.

He held onto his swollen and aching forehead, and sat up from the bed. Suddenly, he noticed something, and his gaze shifted to the seat beside him. The bed was ice-cold, and Liu Ruo Qing was not there.

His heart trembled.

"Why are you up so early today?"

He knew that Liu Ruo Qing liked to sleep late and would not get up until the next morning. At this moment, the bed was already freezing cold even before the morning came.

Recalling the scene he saw yesterday at the Red Chamber of Commerce, Yan Yuan's heart sank uncomfortably.

Although he had been very happy with her during this period of time, in his heart, he had always been concerned about Liu Qian Xun's existence.

Yesterday, when he saw her crying so bitterly at Liu Qian Xun's painting, he couldn't control his nerves. He stayed in the Imperial Guard Army Camp all night and didn't want to return to begin with, but he was still worried about her.

However, he had to admit that he was still a bit annoyed. He had slept only yesterday after speaking with her for a short while.

He lowered his eyebrows and looked at the collar of his shirt. It had been undone several times by her, so she should have been the one to unbutton it for him.

Yesterday he had slept a little, and he could feel her taking care of him.

In his heart, he couldn't help but blame himself a bit more, but in his heart, he was slightly displeased.

He didn't even dare to imagine how his life would be in the future if she were to leave him.

He even dreamt that she left him last night. He couldn't find her no matter how hard he tried. He sank into darkness, and there was nobody around but himself.

No matter how much he begged her not to leave him, she had left him, and he had gone to great lengths to find her, but he had not found her.

Looking at the empty seat beside him, his heart was stifled with pain.

He quickly got off the bed, opened the door and rushed downstairs. It was just at this time that Xiao Yue came in from the outside with hot water.

"Your Highness."

Just as Xiao Yue was about to bow, she was pulled over by Yan Yuan.

"Do you see your princess?"

A hint of confusion rose on Xiao Yue's face, "Princess, she … Isn't she sleeping in her room? "

Hearing Xiao Yue say that, Yan Yuan did not have time to ask, and the panic in his heart became even more apparent.

Rushing out of East Garden, he shouted from the courtyard, "Men!"

"What orders does the Prince have?"

"Did you see the wangfei go out?"

"Reporting to Your Highness, Princess went out last night."

The guard before him was one of the guards responsible for patrolling the place last night.

Afraid that Yan Yuan would blame him, he continued, "This lowly one wishes to send someone to follow my wife, but my wife doesn't allow this lowly one to follow me."

"He went out last night?"

Yan Yuan's expression dimmed, and a trace of panic flashed past his eyes.

"Did the princess say where she was going?"

The guard shook his head. "Wangfei just told us to take a walk and ignore her, but …"

"But what?"

Yan Yuan's heart once again twitched.

"This humble servant saw that wangfei seemed to have cried last night, there were still tears in her eyes."

"You're crying?"

Yan Yuan's brows suddenly furrowed, he then instinctively thought back to the scene he saw yesterday at the backyard of the Red Chamber.

Was it because she was crying because she thought of Liu Qian Xun again?

When he thought of this, Yan Yuan became angry and flustered, afraid that she would leave to find Liu Qian Xun without saying a word last night.

Without saying a word, he left the prince's mansion, quickened his pace, and headed straight for the red house.

The restaurant had already opened for business, and guests had already filed in for breakfast.

Uncle Liu was at the counter greeting customers when he saw Yan Yuan run in anxiously from outside.
