Chapter 690: Chapter 690: For Her Chapter 690: Chapter 690: For Her Su Yunjin was taken aback.
“My husband, were you really considering this the day my fruit wine was smashed?”
Gu Yan did not deny it, nodding lightly, “Mm!”
Su Yunjin was at a loss for words.
Gu Yan added, “Yunjin, I will help you with your shop from now on.”
Su Yunjin came back to her senses.
“My husband, so you resigned from your position at Fuman Building for me?” The fruit wine being smashed meant that Gu Yan must have been worried about such an incident happening again.
That’s why he thought of resigning from his position at Hongyun Building after her fruit wine was smashed.
Su Yunjin’s guess was not wrong, Gu Yan had indeed resigned because of her, but he did not say this. Instead, he asked her, “Yunjin, do you like that I am helping you?”
Of course she liked it.
Su Yunjin had long wanted Gu Yan to help her.
Now that Gu Yan had resigned from his position at Fuman Building, Su Yunjin was actually happy. This meant that he could help her with the shop’s affairs in the future.
Although Gu Yan had resigned from his position at Hongyun Building, that would only be effective next month. The current month had not yet ended, and Gu Yan had to continue keeping the accounts at Hongyun Building for the remaining few days.
Since he would not be doing it next month, Gu Yan arrived earlier and returned later during these remaining days. Su Yunjin was busy brewing wine in the wine shop, and with Gu Yan returning late from doing the accounts, Su Yunjin did not feel anything out of place. The couple were each busy with their own tasks. Mr. Chu’s fruit wine, Su Yunjin had promised to deliver it by the end of the month.
That morning, Su Yunjin went to check the rooms where Mr. Chu’s fruit wine was stored; all the wine he had brewed for him was ready.
Upon opening each jar, a uniquely fragrant aroma emerged, Su Yunjin tasted two of them and found the flavors were good, very rich and fragrant. Typically, the fruit wine could be consumed after half a month.
The fruit wine she had prepared for Mr. Chu had been brewed for almost twenty days, and those that were brewed a few more days were even more fragrant than those from just half a month.
After tasting the fruit wine, Su Yunjin was very satisfied and resealed the jars she had sampled. In two more days, she would be able to deliver this batch to Mr. Chu.
Actually, Su Yunjin could have delivered the fruit wine to Mr. Chu today, but since Gu Yan was keeping the accounts at the wine shop, he could not accompany her. Last time, there had been an incident where her fruit wine was smashed.
After the incident, Su Yunjin hadn’t dwelled on it much. However, now that she was going to deliver the wine again, she felt some trepidation at the thought.
This time, all of the fruit wine was intended for Mr. Chu, and she had signed a contract with him that required delivery by the end of the month.
If she failed to deliver, or if any mishap occurred with the wine, she would have to compensate Mr. Chu at double the value according to the contract.
Currently, she did not have two hundred taels on hand, and if she truly had to compensate at double the value, she could not afford it. With such a crucial delivery, Su Yunjin dared not rashly go alone.
She had to wait for Gu Yan to be free so he could accompany her.
With Gu Yan there, Su Yunjin felt more secure. If something went wrong, Gu Yan would be able to help her. Last time, when her fruit wine was smashed, Su Yunjin could bear the loss.
Back then, she did not have any contract with Fuman Building, and the smashing was just that; it was nothing but a few jars of lost wine. This time, she had a contract with Mr. Chu.
If the fruit wine were smashed, she would lose not just the wine but also have to pay a substantial compensation. This time, she had to be careful and meticulous to avoid any slip-ups.
