chance world

……

The rice sieving machine invented by Ding Qiyu allowed Fu Ruqing's Wangsui to minimize the loss in the disaster of rice blast, and because the rice demanded by big restaurants like Jinyaolou is almost not allowed to contain blast rice, so there are more Wangsui A few "big customers" were acquired, which made other grain merchants envious.

If you want to say that Wang Sui's biggest competitor is Fu Ruqing's "Fufeng" under her father.Wang Sui was up and down and safe, but Fufeng suffered a lot of setbacks. On this day, Ding Qiyu was on duty as a small follower, accompanying Fu Ruqing to handle business affairs in Ningxintang.Suddenly, the waiter outside the door reported: "Miss, the Patriarch is here."

Fu Ruqing paused when he picked up the pen, and after a while, he only replied with one word: "Yeah." He had already somewhat guessed the reason for his father's visit in his heart.

The hall door opened, and a middle-aged man walked in from the door, with a slender figure, wearing a black robe with dark gold embroidered patterns, and a beautiful white jade pendant on his waist.The man had a few strands of white hair on his sideburns, but his facial features were very regular, his eyes were piercing, and his lips had a neat beard, which looked quite neat.He must have been a personable figure in his youth.

Fu Ruqing watched him walk into the Ningxin Hall without saying hello or speaking, just watching him quietly, Ding Qiyu couldn't see her emotions at all.

The middle-aged man was Fu Ruqing's father, Fu Sheng, the head of the Fu family. He seemed to have gotten used to Fu Ruqing's attitude. He looked at Yinsu and Ding Qiyu around Fu Ruqing, and asked, "Ruqing, how are you doing recently?"

Fu Ruqing had a faint sneer on his lips: "Thank you for your concern, Dad. I'm fine." Seeing that the other party wanted to say something, he interrupted without losing face, "What do you want to say, what's your problem? Just say it, don't talk about other unimportant things."

Master Fu was choked by her words, his chest was stuffy, and he didn't know how to vent it. He sighed and said, "Wang Sui has hardly been affected by the rice blast recently. How did you do it?" In fact, he came here this time On the one hand, I wanted to ask about Wang Sui, and on the other hand, I also wanted to see how my daughter was doing.The older the master of the Fu family, the more powerless he felt, and the more lonely he felt. Although he was a close relative, he became a rival in business and a stranger in life. The estrangement between father and daughter made him feel uncomfortable. He is eager to regain this father-daughter relationship.

Sure enough, it was because of this... Fu Ruqing had a hint of self-deprecation flashing across his eyebrows: "Businessmen value profit over friendship, this principle--" she said, paused before continuing, "It was my father who taught my daughter. Since Wang Sui Regarding the business dispute with the opponent, even though you and I are father and daughter, please forgive me, Ruqing has nothing to say." Qing Leng's voice sounded a little erratic.

"Ruqing... It's been so many years, do you have to talk to dad like this?" Patriarch Fu frowned tightly, and took a few steps forward, looking at his daughter who had grown into a graceful figure, unknowingly, she had become like this big.

Fu Ruqing didn't answer, and he didn't look at Patriarch Fu anymore, but the white hair on his father's sideburns was engraved in his mind, which couldn't be lingered, so Fu Ruqing couldn't help but gathered up his sleeves.

Patriarch Fu was a little sad, and sighed again: "Ruqing has grown up. The business is getting better and better." He smiled and said to his daughter, "You are doing very well. Dad is getting old too. .”

Fu Ruqing still didn't intend to reply, only she knew how sore her throat felt when she heard her father's emotion.It's just that because of the ability to hide emotions that has been cultivated for many years, others can't see a trace of clues from her eyebrows.

The atmosphere was silent for a moment, and Patriarch Fu stopped talking several times, and finally he could only say with a bit of desolation: "Then dad won't bother you with your work. Let's go."

Fu Ruqing nodded lightly, afraid that if she made a sound, she would reveal all her emotions.

Master Fu left Ningxin Hall, and the hall fell into a long silence.

The conflict between the little girl and her father is far deeper than what he imagined, Ding Qiyu thought so, because of the weird and awkward atmosphere just now, he felt extremely uncomfortable.

"Ding Qiyu..." Fu Ruqing, who had been silent for a long time, suddenly called softly.

Ding Qiyu, who was guessing wildly, was suddenly called on, and he came forward and asked, "Miss?"

I heard Fu Ruqing say in a negotiating tone: "If possible, let the people from Chance Pavilion go to Fufeng to sell rice sieving machines tomorrow..."

Ding Qiyu raised his eyebrows, then understood, nodded and promised: "Okay. The Chance Pavilion will let Fufeng use the rice sieving machine soon." The little girl is as cold as ice to her father on the surface, but she is soft in her heart Ding Qiyu's heart softened a little because of her words.

……

Although Chance Pavilion doesn't have much reputation yet, Fu Ruqing is very optimistic about its prospects.Chance Pavilion exists independently of the Fu family's property, and the real owner is Ding Qiyu.Fu Ruqing didn't want the Chance Pavilion to be associated with the Fu family in the eyes of outsiders, but wanted to see it develop and grow independently, so he handled things very cleanly. Except for a few key core figures, no one else knew about Chance Behind the pavilion, there is the full support of Miss Fu.

So when Ding Qiyu sent someone to Fufeng to sell the rice sieving machine, Master Fu didn't know that it was actually her daughter's instruction.Fufeng let Chance Pavilion take on another big business.While Ding Qiyu was busy with the affairs of the Chance Pavilion, he also liked getting along with the eldest lady more and more. He always looked forward to playing with her with novelty gadgets every evening, and looking forward to being on duty every other day.In front of her, Ding Qiyu can live as the truest self.Her innocence, her kindness, all the new expressions on her face that I provoked, and even her usual indifference, all became the sunshine that warmed Ding Qiyu's heart again, and began to fascinate Ding Qiyu.It's just that Ding Qiyu hasn't had time to think about it.

And Fu Ruqing also found that he liked staying with Ding Qiyu more and more. Apart from the novelty, he also transferred this interest to that person. stay around.Gradually, from expecting that person to come with a novelty, to waiting for the person to come with a coincidence; gradually, I don't like the days when there are two female guards behind me, and I always feel a bit empty .Moreover, in front of Ding Qiyu, his perfect ability to suppress emotions seems to have lost its effect, and because of this person's few words, he will always show an expression that should not appear on his face...

Time passed quietly like this, and the hearts of the two got closer and closer.On this day, Ding Qiyu designed an improved spinning wheel in response to the needs of Fu Ruqing's subordinate Buzhuang. He had lunch with He Ankang and the others at noon, and after a short rest, he returned to Qingliu Garden, wanting to talk to Fu Ruqing about himself. new results.Went to Ningxin hall but did not find anyone, it turned out that the eldest lady returned to Fumengju.Ding Qiyu estimated the time and thought that the little girl's rest should not be disturbed, so he hurried to Fumengju.

Fu Ruqing was a little sleepy for a while, so she just took a nap on the soft bed in the study room. She just got up, and she was the only one in the study room, standing quietly in front of the window and staring at the little white flowers on the wind chime in a daze.

Ding Qiyu would come here every day in the evening, so the guards of Fumengju knew Ding Qiyu, and they didn't stop her after she explained her intentions.Ding Qiyu entered the yard and saw that the door of the study was not closed, guessed that the little girl must be reading in the study, walked to the door of the study, knocked lightly on the door frame, but no one responded.

He knocked twice more, but still didn't get a response. Ding Qiyu couldn't hold back his curiosity, and looked into the room, and saw Fu Ruqing standing quietly in front of the window, with long waterfall-like hair without a headband or hair ornament. It was draped over her shoulders so naturally, with a kind of laziness that was rarely seen on weekdays. The sun shining in from the window was smudged all over her body, which added a bit of fairy air to her.

Ding Qiyu quietly admired it for a while, and then called out: "Miss? Miss?"

Fu Ruqing, who was in a trance, heard the voice and subconsciously turned around.

When she turned around, Ding Qiyu's eyes widened instantly.Because Fu Ruqing didn't wear a veil on her face...Under the clear and beautiful eyes, there is a straight nose, red lips are untouched, and her complexion is as white as a moon. With this plain white clothes and demeanor, She really doesn't look like a mortal woman, but a fairy who fell into the mortal world.It's a pity that there are three long scars on the left cheek that should be as fine and smooth as the right cheek, as if injured by a sharp weapon, which looks so abrupt and dazzling.

Only then did Fu Ruqing realize that her face was not covered by the white gauze, and she had already been looked at by that person. Ding Qiyu's shocked eyes stabbed her seemingly indifferent but extremely fragile heart, and subconsciously raised her hand to cover her face Looking at the scars on her body, she turned her back and said angrily: "Get out!" The voice was no longer as flat as usual, but trembling uncontrollably, showing the grievance and pain surging in her heart at this moment.

Ding Qiyu regained consciousness from the shock, annoyed by his sluggishness, and took a step forward to explain: "I—"

Before she finished speaking, Fu Ruqing interrupted: "You go out—" Her voice was trembling beyond recognition, and Ding Qiyu could easily discern a bit of crying from it.

Ding Qiyu was extremely anxious, but he couldn't go against her intentions at this moment, so he had to leave the room with deep regret, self-blame, and unrequited distress, leaving the little girl alone to calm down.

Ding Qiyu stood at the door, looked at the door that was closed by himself, and kept murmuring softly: "I'm sorry..." I felt extremely uncomfortable, and didn't know what to do.

Fu Ruqing in the room heard her closing the door, and felt relieved. She leaned on the window sill, and stabilized her body that was about to lose her footing. It was abrupt, and he retracted his hand as if he had been scalded. He could no longer bear the sadness and grievance in his heart. Tears slid across the three abrupt ridges, and fell from the soft cheeks to the ground, splashing a few points. Tiny splashes.

Yin Su, who came back from the outside, saw the person standing blankly at the door, vaguely guessed something, stepped forward and said anxiously: "Mr. Ding, you—"

Clenching his fists, Ding Qiyu turned around and said to Yinsu in a low voice: "Sister Yinsu, I, hey... Please go and see her, I'll come later to make amends..." After saying that, he quickly left Fumengju.

All the way back to the West Courtyard, she was restless, her mind was full of the beautiful and refined face of the little girl, but flawed because of the scars.In her heart, she regretted the shock she subconsciously showed. She must have misunderstood that she thought she was ugly... In fact, the scar on Fu Ruqing's face gave Ding Qiyu the feeling that it was not ugly at all, but that it aroused deep feelings in her heart. Feeling sorry for her, those three scars were clearly done on purpose, little girl, what kind of past has she experienced?Ding Qiyu was quite sure that those three scars were the biggest seal on Fu Ruqing's heart. In order to protect herself, she put on a cold and alienated disguise and hid her pure and kind heart.

In the evening, when the sky was getting dark, Ding Qiyu hesitated, not knowing how to apologize to the little girl.After thinking for a while, she didn't bring the novelties she had prepared, so she went to Fumengju empty-handed.But Yin Su was standing in front of Fu Ruqing's boudoir, his face was full of worry.

Ding Qiyu sighed inwardly, stepped forward and asked softly, "Sister Yinsu, where is she?"

Yinsu came back to her senses, saw that it was Ding Qiyu, and sighed, "Miss, I've already rested."
