I'm such a lovesick person.

Chapter 291 Mu Lanyan's Disappointment
Mu Lanyan and Xiang Wen's gazes simultaneously focused on him.

Ms. Mu, with her dignified and ladylike demeanor, a faint smile playing on her lips and an inquisitive look in her eyes, stared at him for a few seconds before turning her gaze to Xiang Wen beside her.

Xiang Wen had clearly dressed up carefully, wearing very light lipstick and eyeshadow, making her look more glamorous than usual.

Unlike Teacher Mu, she seemed somewhat restrained and uneasy, her face filled with sorrow.

Wei Lin was immediately overwhelmed with worry, and secretly smiled bitterly to himself.

After his trip to Yazhou, he and Xiang Wen rarely contacted each other, but through the Love Value system, he could see that Xiang Wen was consistently contributing Love Values.

Every day, there are anywhere from thirty to fourteen cases, and there is no sign of the numbers decreasing.

He knew, of course, that Xiang Wen loved him and craved a clear and stable relationship.

However, he is in Linjiang City and has been busy with company matters and taking care of several girlfriends with whom he has a closer relationship, so he really can't spare much time.

When Xiang Wen chatted with him a while ago, she mentioned, intentionally or unintentionally, that she wanted to come to Linjiang City for the weekend.

But he didn't expect it to happen so soon, much less today.

"Things are really unstable on my end."

Wei Lin sighed inwardly, gave the two women a faint smile, and sat down on the sofa.

In the kitchen, Wang Suru, who was busy at work, turned to look at him with a reproachful expression and scolded, "Who told you not to eat breakfast? Go hungry if you want, the food will be ready soon!"

"Oh," Wei Lin responded, then spoke to Xiang Wen first: "When did you arrive? Didn't you go to the gardens in Linjiang City?"

Xiang Wen glanced at Mu Lanyan discreetly and said softly, "We just arrived and haven't had a chance to explore yet."

She wanted Wei Lin to accompany her shopping, which was her real purpose for the trip, but Mu Lanyan was also in the house, making it impossible for her to say it.

"I have something to do this afternoon. After we finish eating, I'll have my mom take you around. You're not in a hurry to leave tonight, are you?"

Wei Lin asked.

Xiang Wen gently shook her head: "I'm not leaving tonight."

"Alright, I'll treat you to dinner tonight." Wei Lin smiled slightly, then looked at Teacher Mu and asked, "How's your mother doing?"

"I feel much better! I came here specifically to thank you."

Upon hearing Wei Lin mention this, she temporarily set aside her many curiosities and said, "Wei Lin, the Chinese medicine you gave me is truly miraculous! My mother's illness has been examined by many specialists, and they all said she didn't have much time left, but during another check-up a couple of days ago, we found that all her indicators were improving!"

"My mom can move around on her own now, and her appetite has improved too!"

"Wei Lin, thank you!"

Mu Lanyan expressed her gratitude earnestly.

She hadn't expected to run into another woman at Teacher Wang's place. She had some doubts about the relationship between Wei Lin and Xiang Wen, but she also knew that she and Wei Lin were just friends at the moment.

She had some feelings for Wei Lin, but since they weren't dating, she naturally had no right to interfere in Wei Lin's private life.

“I told you your mom would be fine.” Wei Lin grinned, and then introduced the two women: “Xiang Wen, my mom’s travel buddy when we were traveling in Yazhou. Mu Lanyan, my mom’s colleague at Linjiang University, and also a good friend of mine.”

Upon hearing that he and Mu Lanyan were just good friends, Xiang Wen quietly breathed a sigh of relief, her tense nerves relaxing.

Her biggest fear was running into Wei Lin's girlfriend, which would make her feel incredibly ashamed.

"Sister Xiang Wen is so beautiful, haven't you ever thought about what she's thinking?"

Teacher Mu squinted, and as soon as she finished thanking him, she began to probe the true relationship between the two.

"I thought about it, but I didn't expect it."

Wei Lin shrugged and said jokingly, "I wanted to seduce her back in Yazhou, but unfortunately I didn't succeed."

Upon hearing this, Teacher Wang, who was eavesdropping in the kitchen, couldn't help but roll her eyes.

Xiang Wen glared at him, chuckled softly, and said, "I clearly gave you a chance!"

Mu Lanyan was slightly disappointed.

Wei Lin seemed to be joking, and Xiang Wen also seemed to be joking, but the fact that a woman dared to say she gave him a chance was enough to prove that Xiang Wen had feelings for Wei Lin.

Otherwise, Xiang Wen would never have said that.

"The two are definitely flirting."

Teacher Mu understood what was going on, and then felt a little sour, but didn't say anything more.

“Wei Lin…”

Looking at Wei Lin's handsome face, she suddenly realized that she had feelings for him and even considered trying to develop the relationship further.

She wasn't sure before because she hadn't seen Wei Lin say those ambiguous things to another woman, but now that she had, she felt a little uneasy and immediately confirmed it.

"almost."

Wang Suru carried dishes from the kitchen to the dining table.

Braised ribbonfish, winter melon and pork rib soup, braised eggplant, stir-fried pork with green peppers, and stir-fried snails with chives—these dishes were a feast for the eyes and the palate, their aromas alone enough to make one's mouth water.

Wei Lin stood up first and invited the two women to sit down.

"Mom, get me a big bowl of rice first!"

……

Wei Lin ate quickly, not chatting much with the two women at the table. Once he was full, he excused himself, saying he had something to do in the afternoon, and hurriedly left. He didn't care what the three women talked about afterwards; he only knew he couldn't stay any longer.

Golden Eagle Shopping Center, Yan Yu.

Half past two in the afternoon.

Shen Zong and Sun Lulu graced us with their presence once again.

"what!"

As soon as Sun Lulu arrived, she saw Li Qinling's exquisite banner and also saw Li Qinling's new song "Light and Ethereal" playing on a loop on a brand-new large TV screen.

"Qingque is actually endorsed by Li Qinling!"

She couldn't help but let out a soft gasp.

She recently got a set of Qingque sportswear for free, and she felt very comfortable wearing it. It was light, breathable, and fit her body very well, so she was reluctant to take it off.

I came here this time to get another set to wear.

She doesn't follow celebrities, but Li Qinling's new song "Light and Ethereal" is very popular, and she has listened to it several times.

However, she didn't specifically watch Li Qinling's music video, so she naturally didn't know that Li Qinling was wearing Qingque's sportswear.

Now, she was surprised to discover that the incredibly popular Li Qinling was actually the spokesperson for Qingque, and couldn't help but say, "No wonder it's so expensive!"

"What are you doing here again?" Shen Yanfei snapped at her younger brother in an annoyed tone.

"I had nothing better to do this weekend, so I thought I'd check out your store's business. Is it as bad as it was a few days ago?" Shen Zong said casually, glancing at Li Qinling's banner. "Since Qingque hired her as their spokesperson, what were you doing the other day? Didn't you know to use her for advertising?"

"How I do business is none of your business," Shen Yanfei said coldly.

The siblings argue as soon as they meet.

However, when facing Sun Lulu, she didn't put on a stern face, but instead smiled and asked, "Lulu, how are our Qingque's sportswear?"

After all, she was going to be her sister-in-law. Even if her parents were a bit difficult, she still had to give them the respect they deserved.

"It looks really nice, so I wanted to take a look around some more." Sun Lulu said a little shyly, "Sis, this time I'll pay for it myself!"

In the past, when she came with Shen Zong, she would take things openly when Miao Ke was the only one there. But if she saw Shen Yanfei in the store, she would pretend to take the money.

Of course, Shen Yanfei never actually made her pay any money.

This trip is the same.

"It's our own little shop, why would I ask you to spend any money?" Shen Yanfei smiled sweetly, took her hand affectionately, and led her to the sportswear section, saying, "Come on, pick out another set."

"Coco, how's business at the store these past few days?" Shen Zong asked.

Whether Yan Yu can make money, and how much money he can make, is related to his marriage, so he naturally cares about it.

"It's alright."

Miao Ke's attitude towards him was neither warm nor cold. She said calmly, "Some customers came yesterday and bought Qingque's clothes. This morning, some people came specifically for Qingque."

She knew a little about the siblings, but dared not reveal that Qingque had made a fortune yesterday.

Thanks to the enthusiastic promotion by those coaches, several private coaching members from Linjiang City who love sports came this morning. After learning that Qingque is positioned for high-end people and has Li Qinling as its celebrity spokesperson, they all readily bought some Qingque clothing.

This morning's sales exceeded 20,000, and she felt there should be more in the afternoon and evening.

"Could this clothing and hat shop really be a good business opportunity?"

Shen Zong became interested.

“Of course!” Miao Ke said proudly, tilting her head back. “When doing personal shopping, Sister Feifei has to travel all over the place, and there’s no way to save money on airfare and hotels. Qingque and those hats are all from factories in our Linjiang City, so the delivery is very fast, and there’s not much to worry about.”

Shen Zong looked thoughtful and said with a grin, "Of course I hope the store does well."

Just then, a guest arrived heading towards Yan Yu, and Miao Ke went over to greet him with a smile.

Having escaped from his mother's place, Wei Lin strolled over to Yan Yu, wanting to check the location of the advertising banners and the placement of the television screens, and also to find out about today's business.

Upon seeing Shen Zong arrive again, Wei Lin smiled brightly.

"Can this store really make money?"

Since he learned from Miao Ke that Yan Yu's situation had improved somewhat, his attitude was a little better today. He asked, "Did you find those Qingque hats and the two brand hats for my sister?"

Wei Lin smiled and nodded, saying, "After changing the business strategy, Yan Yu should be better off than before. As for how much better she will ultimately be, I can't say for sure."

Shen Zong was, after all, his woman's younger brother, so even if he had treated him badly before, Wei Lin wouldn't hold it against him.

"Wei Lin!"

Huang Xingzhi, arm in arm with his new girlfriend, strolled to Yan Yu's shop. When he saw Wei Lin there, he couldn't help but gasp softly.

He had long since given up on Shen Yanfei, and now that he had found a younger and prettier girl, he came here specifically to show off.

"Mr. Huang."

Shen Zong recognized Huang Xingzhi and greeted him warmly when he saw him with a little girl, completely ignoring Wei Lin.
