"There's only the two of us at this moment. Young Master Shen, if you have anything to say, please speak frankly. If not, why did you keep meeting me again and again?"

Gu Hua Jing's tone was still calm and collected, but his calm mood allowed Shen Li Xuan to gradually calm down.

He already knew that Gu Hua Jing was a special girl, but he didn't know that she was special.

"What Miss Gu said … That's why I appeared by your side. Please forgive me. "

"I forgive you, but you want to marry me? "You don't mind if I leave you?"

"This... This humble one knows a little about the relationship between the young lady and Li, but it has nothing to do with the young lady herself. "

"So, the people from the House of Marquis Ning agreed?" "Young master is the heir to the House of Marquis Ning, is the marriage such a farce?"

"Why is this child's play …"

"Would the elders of the young master easily agree to be the future wife of the house of the Marquis with a girl he had left?"

Shen Li Xuan didn't know why he said those words so deeply, but he was at a loss. This was an emotion that he rarely felt.

However, he actually didn't feel this was absurd, as if he could accept whatever this woman did.

"Miss Gu, if you're worried about this, then there's no need. I'll take care of this myself."

En, she could still be considered to be a responsible person. Gu Hua Jing affirmed her in her heart, but so what?

"Then, will Young Master Shen accept a concubine in the future?"

"I am not a lecherous person."

"What if your mother and grandmother were to give you a concubine?"

"Then... I will only give them a name, just a name. "

Shen Lixuan felt that his answer wasn't wrong. He was confident that he could do this. It wasn't because he was boasting, but because there weren't many men that could do this.

Unexpectedly, Shen Lixuan actually saw Gu Hua Jing's smile. It was as light as a flower, gentle and elegant, yet it made him feel inexplicably uneasy. Gu Hua Jing's smile was far from reaching his eyes.

"You see, this is the reason why I left you. I am a jealous woman, and I do not have such a big room that measures tolerance towards all reasons. So, Young Master Shen, you do not need to worry about me."

Shen Lixuan's eyes darkened. Did this woman know what he was saying? She actually called herself a jealous woman! If these words were to spread, how could she possibly get married?!

However, Gu Hua Jing remained calm and collected, as if it was a very ordinary matter.

"Young Master Shen has a noble identity and is extremely talented. You can choose any number of noble daughters you want. I am only seeking peace and stability, I hope Young Master can forgive me."

Gu Hua Jing felt that she had more or less expressed herself. Speaking to this point, any man with a bit of arrogance would ignore her. Thus, Gu Hua Jing turned and prepared to leave.

Shen Lixuan, who had been silent for a moment, suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Miss, you've rejected me. Could it be that you're uninterested in other men because you're still thinking of Bai Lingtian?"

Upon hearing the words "Bai Lingtian", Gu Hua Jing's head began to ache, but she did not deny it.

If he could make Shen Lixuan give up on this idea, then Bai Lingtian would be the same. What was the difference between left and right?

"However, Bai Lingtian doesn't have a good impression of this lady, so why does this lady insist on humiliating herself?"

"I have already reached the end of my relationship with Bai Lingtian. However, there is no one in this world who can move me. I am ashamed to have failed to live up to the wishes of my young master."

After she finished speaking, Gu Hua Jing left with large strides.

Honestly speaking, for most women, Shen Lixuan was the perfect choice. Gu Huaxin also believed that he would do as he said, giving his legal wife respect and love.

The status of Marquis Ning's Mansion was extremely prestigious. As the crown prince, if there were no mishaps, Shen Lixuan would inherit the title of noble. With such an alluring identity, who would reject it?

But from the bottom of her heart, Gu Hua Jing didn't want to.

Putting aside the complicated situation in the Wealthy Class courtyard, Shen Mengli, who she had met before, felt a headache coming on.

To be able to raise such a daughter, Gu Hua Jing felt that the Marquis' Mansion was definitely not an easy place. Her brain must have sprung up to allow her to jump in.

Shen Lixuan had clearly been rejected by Gu Huaxin, so he stood at the edge of the pool for a long time.

After a long while, he touched his cheek in disbelief. He was actually rejected, and was still as straightforward as ever.

This was the first time he took the initiative to express his goodwill towards a girl, but he didn't think that he would end up like this.

But why? Was Bai Lingtian that good? It was so good that Gu Hua Jing couldn't even look at the other men anymore?

A fire suddenly ignited in Shen Lixuan's heart. It had nothing to do with him not completing His Highness' request. This was the first time in his life that he felt such a strong hostility towards someone.

His Majesty had already received the military report from Bai Lingtian, who could reach the capital at the beginning of this month. He wanted to see just how strong Bai Lingtian was compared to him!

There were no other issues during the ceremony, so Fang Wanxin naturally became the focus of everyone's attention.

Oh, speaking of the storm, there were still some. As the ceremony drew to a close, it was time for the man to gift the silk flowers in his hand to him.

Madam He invited Gu Hua Jing to accompany her. She presented herself as the main house to everyone.

In the end, someone gave the silk flower to Gu Hua Jing.

"Young Master Shen …"

The corner of Gu Hua Jing's eyes twitched. He had spent so much effort to speak up, but Shen Li Xuan didn't pay attention at all?

What would he do with the flowers in front of everyone's eyes? Was it because he felt that there wasn't enough gossip surrounding him?!

Shen Li Xuan could see the anger in Gu Hua Jing's clear eyes, but he insisted on not taking his hand back. He felt that the eyes in front of him were so bright that they could captivate a person's heart.

With so many people watching, it wasn't a good idea for Gu Hua Jing to flare up. She politely thanked him and took the silk flower.

Therefore, other than the rumors about him seducing the crown prince of Marquis Ning's Mansion after the hairpin flower feast, everything else seemed so calm.

"Miss, Young Master Shen sent a basket of cherries to the door."

"Retreat."

Gu Hua Jing didn't even raise her head as she stared at the recipe in her hands.

She recalled the information in her mind and wrote it down using medicinal ingredients that were common to see and not expensive.

There were medlar steamed chicken with nourishing Yin and nourishing benefit, orange duck with soothing liver and invigorating spleen, red date porridge with kernel and kernels, cinnamon boy chicken with nourishing heart and calmness, and motherwort egg soup suitable for women...

Gu Hua Jing thought for a moment, then changed a piece of paper and wrote down a few recipes.

These were much more expensive. Panax quinquefolium, ginseng and yam paste, ginseng and elixir porridge …

Doing business, what kind of people would meet, and some people just liked to spend a lot of money to enjoy it. Gu Hua Jing was very happy to see that.

"Miss, the House of Marquis Ning doesn't accept them. They don't believe that Young Master Shen sent them …"

"Who cares if he accepts it or not. Just put it there."

Gu Hua Jing still didn't raise her eyes. To the Medicine Hall, the name of 'hospitable arrival' seemed a little … Not very serious.

"What else should I change?" "Thousand Gold Association?" "Hundred Flavors Temple?" "Medicine Fragrance Pavilion?"

There were also quite a few rooms, so she had to think of some nice names. Gu Hua Jing held the pen and poked her face with the back of it hesitantly. Otherwise, she would use the name of the medicinal plant? However, he still had to choose something that sounded good and easy to remember.

Gu Hua Jing tried to write down a few names of the medicinal herbs, but it didn't seem very elegant. Just as she was worrying about it, the green plum flower came in again.

"Miss …"

"Is Shen Lixuan done yet?!"

With a "pa" sound, Gu Hua Jing placed the pen in her hand on the desk. A large amount of paper splashed onto the ink, revealing her anger.

"Miss, it's not Young Master Shen this time. Esteemed guest, please come over here and say that a few families have come to find you, wanting to settle down."

Gu Hua Jing's angry expression froze. Fix your position? The guests have yet to start their business, which room should they sit in?

"Have you asked? Are you sure you want to locate it? According to our schedule, they won't open until the middle of next month. When will they set it? "

"The beginning of the month."

"Send him off, send him off. You're joking with me."

Gu Hua Jing impatiently waved her hand, once again wanting to grab a pen.

Qingmei did not leave. "Miss, early next month, the border guard general returned to the capital and took the Liuhu Street. The guests came to meet them on the street, and the view was just right …"

"…" The brush in his hand dripped a drop of ink onto the xuan paper underneath.

Gu Hua Jing simply let Qing Mei wash her hands. After washing half of it, she seemed to come to a sudden realization, "So those people want to be placed in a position so that they can see the general in charge of the garrison?"

Qingmei took the soft cloth and carefully wiped Gu Hua Jing's hands, "To be precise, they are here to see Bai Lingtian."

Gu Hua Jing raised her eyebrows, "Not bad, I didn't expect Bai Lingtian to have a fan?"

"Miss, how do we make them do it?"

"Definitely, of course."

The corner of Gu Hua Jing's mouth curved into a strange smile, "How can I let go of this opportunity?" However, regarding the price... "Tell the entire manager not to be so formal, our place is blessed by the heavens, so it's normal for it to be a bit higher."

"…" Qingmei looked helplessly at her young miss' eyes which were glowing with silver. She knew that her young lady would not care about Bai Lingtian. Look, the green branch lost another purse to her.

"Don't be in such a hurry to decide on everything. It's best if this news is spread out. Leave one or two tables with the best terrain …"

Gu Hua Jing was overjoyed, wishing she could make an auction out of it. She didn't expect her medicinal cuisine to be so hard to earn before it even opened, and it was all because of Bai Lingtian! Awesome!

If he was earning his own silver, it would be even better!

Qingmei completely understood Gu Hua Jing's meaning and quietly went out.

Gu Hua Jing lowered her head to look at the xuan paper. With a wave of her large brush, she circled around the "Hua Cuisine Restaurant."

He didn't want to put his name into it, but now that he thought about it, this was the perfect way to earn money. Why not?

The name of the restaurant was finally decided, Gu Hua Jing had someone take it to make a signboard.

In addition, the second floor of the restaurant faced the street and unexpectedly was so popular. This was something that Gu Hua Jing had never expected.

The entire shopkeeper followed Gu Hua Jing's instructions and did not bite off the price. He was very smart and decided on a price that would make Gu Hua Jing smile brightly. For the first time, he felt that it was a good thing for Bai Ling to return to the capital.
