The Ace Bigshot Becomes A Farmgirl

Shu Yu thought for a moment, then said, ”This staff’s behavior isn’t very discreet. Even so, your shopkeeper hasn’t noticed. Either he’s not paying attention to the shop, or he guessed it but did nothing, or he’s been kept in the dark. Regardless, his ability...”

Cen Yi and the nanny immediately understood, yes, no matter which it is, he’s not suited to be the shopkeeper.

Cen Yi smiled wryly, ”Originally, the shopkeeper of my cosmetic shop was someone else, but unfortunately, he passed away unexpectedly two years ago. The current Manager Fang has no experience as a shopkeeper, he just learned by following others for a few years. I found him obedient and compliant, so I promoted him.”

But now it seems, she was too hasty, Manager Fang is more suited to be an executor of orders.

Shu Yu nodded and didn’t say more.

She had already said enough today, considering Cen Yi’s shop was sent to her voluntarily, she meddled a bit.

The carriage soon stopped at the gate of the small courtyard in the south of the city, and before entering, Shu Yu heard Little Huohuo and Little Song Le playing inside.

Sure enough, Zhao Xi and the others were back.

As the courtyard gate opened, Little Huohuo rushed over, ”Aunt...”

Shu Yu picked him up, and Madam Hou, who followed in, smiled and said, ”Is this Shuyou’s child? He’s so handsome and cute.”

Cen Yi was stunned, looking at Little Huohuo and Shu Yu’s similar features, she understood. So, this was the rumored child of Shu Yu and Meng Yunzheng, born out of wedlock.

Little Huohuo, being praised, immediately puffed out his small chest, ”Cute.”

Madam Hou laughed, ”Little mischievous one.”

She took a small box from the old woman’s hand behind her, opened it to reveal a small silver bracelet inside, ”This is for you, take it.”

Little Huohuo tilted his head, confused, and looked at her, then turned to Shu Yu.

Shu Yu took it unceremoniously, putting the small box in his arms, ”Say thank you.”

”Thank you.”

Shuyou came out just in time, looking helplessly at Shu Yu.

Then she looked at the other people in the courtyard, she recognized Madam Hou, but the young lady beside her was unfamiliar.

Shuyou held Little Huohuo, her puzzled gaze falling on her sister, ”This is...?”

”She’s not feeling well and came to see my husband.”

Shuyou understood, immediately smiled, and said, ”My husband is inside, you all sit first, I’ll go call him.”

”Thank you.” Cen Yi nodded slightly, somewhat nervously following Shu Yu into the living room.

Ying Xi had just served the tea, and Zhao Xi came out.

”Who’s looking for me? I...” He had just entered the living room, not even finishing his sentence, when seeing Cen Yi, his expression slightly changed.

”Miss Cen?”

Cen Yi froze, ”Doctor Zhao knows me?”

Others also looked at him.

Zhao Xi, ”...”

Of course he knows her, this girl previously met Meng Yunzheng twice and declared she wanted to marry him, being a girl from the Marquis Yongchang Mansion, how could he not know?

No, that’s not right, when this girl saw Meng Yunzheng, he was also present.

How could it be, even if she only had eyes for Yun back then, it’s not possible to ignore him so completely, right?

Feeling a bit annoyed, too annoyed.

Zhao Xi couldn’t help but look at Shu Yu, with a peculiar expression, ”Yu, how do you know Miss Cen?” Do you realize she’s your rival in love?

This expression was too obvious, Shu Yu could certainly understand.

”I bought Young Madam Zhou’s shop on Futai Street, naturally I met her.”
