Chapter 636: Chapter 636: What to Do About the Pregnancy Chapter 636: Chapter 636: What to Do About the Pregnancy Su Yunjin felt that she had really spoiled Gu Yan too much, for this entire month she hadn’t rested for more than a few days, that man, having tasted the sweetness, was restless every day.
Su Yunjin vaguely remembered the words Gu Yan whispered in her ear yesterday, asking if the child inside her belly was theirs? Su Yunjin placed her hand on her lower abdomen.
In ancient times, there wasn’t much in the way of contraception, and she and Gu Yan had never taken any measures. Although Su Yunjin knew medicine and was aware of which herbs could prevent pregnancy.
But all medicines have their side effects, so Su Yunjin had not prepared any for herself. Moreover, if she really did have a child with Gu Yan, Su Yunjin felt that she was not particularly averse to the idea.
Having a little dumpling to raise didn’t seem too bad at all. Su Yunjin had refused the manager, Liu, twice in a row, and not many days after, Liu, the manager, actually came to their house again.
Today Gu Yan was not at home, and Su Yunjin was alone in the house. She courteously invited Manager Liu to sit inside. Su Yunjin thought that Manager Liu had come again hoping to buy the recipe for the fruit wine, so before Manager Liu could speak, Su Yunjin preemptively refused, with a troubled expression on her face.
“Manager Liu, you see, the secret formula for fruit wine has been passed down in my family, the Su Family, from our ancestors. If I were to sell what my ancestors handed down, it would simply be unfilial! Manager Liu, although I would really like to sell you the secret formula, I truly dare not carelessly put our ancestral belongings on the market. Not to mention, my parents wouldn’t let me off easily if they found out, I fear even the ancestors of the Su Family would not forgive me,” she said.
Su Yunjin wore a troubled face and cut off any opportunity for Manager Liu to speak. Manager Liu looked at her, his mouth twitching. To refuse him, she had even brought up the ancestors; this clever girl made it so he didn’t even have a chance to speak. Fortunately, Manager Liu wasn’t there to buy Su Yunjin’s secret recipe this time. He had come on the instructions of Lady Qin.
Manager Liu was shrewd and capable of holding his position, not without some skill. He was best at reading people and situations. After the last incident, he knew that Su Yunjin, that girl, was unwilling to sell her wine brewing secret recipe. The last time Su Yunjin mentioned the ancestral secret formula, Manager Liu hadn’t believed it at all.
He knew that the girl, Su Yunjin, had made up the story on the spot to fool him. Originally, Manager Liu hadn’t exposed her because it left both him and Su Yunjin room to maneuver.
Being at odds would leave neither looking good, and Su Yunjin, that girl with her nimble mind, made good money selling things to their Fuman Building.
Especially the pig blood.
The restaurants under Fuman Building were all doing well selling pig blood. Su Yunjin’s lie spared everyone’s face, so naturally, Manager Liu wouldn’t spell it out.
This time Manager Liu was simply acting on instructions.
After Su Yunjin had expressed her difficulty, Manager Liu smiled and began, “Young Madam, don’t worry! This old man didn’t come to buy your secret recipe today.”
Not here to buy the secret recipe?
Su Yunjin secretly rejoiced in her heart. It was best if he was not there to buy it. This way, she wouldn’t have to trouble herself to find excuses and act out a refusal to Manager Liu. But if Manager Liu was not here to buy the recipe for her fruit wine, then what was his purpose for coming?
Su Yunjin looked towards Manager Liu, tentatively asking, “May I know the reason for your visit today, Manager Liu?”
“Young Madam, to be frank, I am here today following Lady Qin’s instructions,” Manager Liu revealed truthfully.
Su Yunjin felt a wave of surprise yet again.
