Perfumer of the Republic of China
Chapter 12 Blues Hour
Gu Xueyan did not lose her composure like Su Feili did. She looked at the exquisite Meirui sachet with a hint of envy in her eyes.
"I don't know if you can make a few more, I'm willing to spend money to buy them." Gu Xueyan looked at Liu Yanhuan sincerely.
"Sorry, I only made one as Jingzhi's birthday gift."
As soon as the words fell, Xi Fengqian strode over: "Yan Huan, this is your fault, a lady wants a sachet, as a gentleman, you should try your best to satisfy it."
Liu Yanhuan frowned.
The ancestors of the Xi family and the Liu family were family friends, and Liu Jingzhi, as the only young lady of the Liu family, was betrothed to Xi Fengqian, the second son of the Xi family.
But the way Xi Fengqian looked at Gu Xueyan made Liu Yanhuan feel very uncomfortable.Even though Xi Fengqian tried his best to conceal it, Liu Yanhuan could still see a trace of fanaticism in his eyes.
Therefore, Liu Yanhuan said coldly: "The sachet I gave to Sister Sister is not like the canaries in the cage, where one dies and the other is raised. This plum sachet is unique."
Xi Fengqian's expression changed, he gritted his teeth and said, "What do you mean!" He suddenly raised his voice, which startled everyone.
"I just want to remind Mr. Xi, don't easily think about things that don't belong to you."
"You!" Xi Fengqian was angry.
"Okay, okay, why spoil the atmosphere on this festive day." Gu Xueyan smoothed things over with a smile, and everyone ate together, Xi Fengqian didn't stay long, took two bites of the meal and left the table under the pretext of going ahead.
Liu Jingzhi lowered her head, staring straight at her skirt, without saying a word.
Although this day was Miss Liu San's birthday, Liu Mingchong returned home reeking of alcohol after Xu Shi.
As soon as Chen Guifang saw it, she immediately yelled: "Master, what's the matter, how did you make it look like this?"
In a blink of an eye, Liu Mingchong saw the dishes in the living room that hadn't been cleaned up, and waved his hand: "You all know how to eat and drink all day long, and the huge bookstore at home is on my shoulders, and it's so extravagant even though I don't have much money."
Drunken, he pointed at Liu Yanhuan with a swipe of his finger: "Especially you! You don't know how to study, and you don't know how to make money to support your family. You are like a blood-sucking moth all day long."
Liu Yanhuan looked coldly at Liu Mingchong's drunken madness, while his good mother smiled and comforted him: "Yanhuan is still young, so it doesn't matter."
This scene of one playing red face and the other singing bad face made him laugh out loud.
"You're still laughing!" Liu Mingchong shouted angrily, raising his hand to find a stick.
"Father, if you want to keep the bookstore's business, there is only one way to go."
Liu Mingchong sat down on the chair: "Speak."
"Nowadays, the books sold by bookstores are too outdated and outdated. If we don't find new selling points, I'm afraid the sales will be difficult."
Liu Mingchong was silent for a long while, and then suddenly became violent: "Absurd, have you forgotten all the family laws of your ancestors?"
"Son, I dare not forget. It's just that today's world is difficult. Everyone in the world looks at the practical knowledge of the world, and is keen on legends of ghosts and monsters. Since you have chosen to go into business, you should follow the skills and rules."
"You're teaching me a lesson."
"My son dare not."
"Tell me, what do you want to do for a living?"
After thinking for a while, Liu Yanhuan replied, "My son thinks that Huai Mo's novel should be a good selling point."
As soon as he finished speaking, Liu Yanlin raised his head and said, "I heard that Huai Mo's novels are very popular."
Liu Mingchong snorted coldly: "It's not worth mentioning that it's so ingenious!"
"Businessmen have been pursuing profit since ancient times. If a father cares about face, he should not let his son do this."
Liu Yanlin said anxiously: "Father, I am also willing to help."
Standing aside, Chen Guifang poked Liu Yanlin in the back: "Master, Yanlin is smaller than Yan Huan, let Yan Huan handle this matter."
Liu Mingchong frowned and looked at the serious Liu Yanhuan, and said, "If you can't talk, don't come to see me again."
Liu Mingchong left, and everyone dispersed.Liu Yanlin followed behind Chen Guifang, full of grievances: "Mother, why don't you let me talk to Huai Mo, the talk is over, so that I can show myself in front of Dad, you gave him the opportunity so easily? "
Chen Guifang handed Liu Yanlin a bowl of fermented glutinous rice balls from the small kitchen, and said with a loving smile, "Silly boy, do you know who that Huai Mo is?"
"Mother heard that he has only cooperated with Pioneer Bookstore for publishing, and has never cooperated with other companies. Your brother went alone this time, what can he get? If you come back in despair, you will have to be punished by your father." Training?"
"That Huai Mo seems to be quite low-key."
"This kind of person is the most difficult to get along with. Your brother dug a hole for himself. Is it possible that the mother is still watching you jump into it?"
"My mother is still thoughtful."
The two mothers and sons here are talking about themselves, while Liu Yanhuan has already found out the business card over there.
Huai Mo's business card was pressed in the diary by him, and the bronzing font was still dazzling even though it was dusty.
In the early morning of the next day, Liu Yanhuan called the number on the business card.
The moment the phone was connected, a strange man's voice came from the other end: "Hello."
"Hi, I'm Liu Yanhuan, I'm looking for Mr. Huai Mo."
Guo Bin looked up when he heard the words, and saw Qin Feiran coming down from the second floor of the mansion in his nightgown.
The butler, Qin Zheng, bowed to Qin Feiran and introduced today's breakfast to him: "Morning, third master, today's breakfast is bacon and cheese omelette..."
Qin Feiran forked a piece of fresh fruit into his mouth, and casually asked Guo Bin beside him, "Is there anything wrong?"
"Third Master, the young master of the Liu family is calling."
Qin Feiran ate a mouthful of fried eggs: "Liu Yanhuan?"
"Exactly."
Qin Feiran took the napkin and wiped his hands before answering the phone: "Hello?"
"Mr. Huai, I'm sorry to disturb you. I left your coat with me last time. I don't know if I'm free recently. I'll return the coat to you."
On the other end of the phone, Qin Feiran was silent for a long time, so long that Liu Yanhuan thought he had hung up the phone.
"What if I say I'm not free?"
Liu Yanhuan was obviously choked by this answer: "I can also go to your residence to return the clothes in person."
"But I don't like outsiders coming to the door." Qin Feiran seemed to like seeing Liu Yanhuan deflated, and always blocked him with words.
There was silence on the other end of the phone.
Qin Feiran chuckled: "The next time you have something to ask me, just tell me straight up, don't use your clothes as an excuse, I prefer you who are frank."
Liu Yanhuan's voice was a bit cold: "Then please ask Mr. Huai to book the location."
"What do you like to eat?"
"I'm not a picky eater."
"Then how about we go to eat western food? I know there is a western restaurant that does very good foie gras and steak."
"As long as Mr. Huai likes it."
"Then it's settled. I'll wait for you at the Lianyi Western Restaurant at [-]:[-] noon."
"Don't dare."
After Liu Yanhuan finished speaking, she hung up the phone before Qin Feiran could speak.
"I don't know if you can make a few more, I'm willing to spend money to buy them." Gu Xueyan looked at Liu Yanhuan sincerely.
"Sorry, I only made one as Jingzhi's birthday gift."
