Mrs. Min paused, as she was asked.
Actually, she didn’t come to Xinlin Mansion for any reason. In other words, she was just idling around, thinking that she might really have stood on the top for too long and felt lonely. That was when she thought of Gu Chaoyan. She believed that Gu Chaoyan was the one that could understand her, rather than think of her as someone who should always stand on the top, as Madame Min thought of her.
She had only had a few encounters with Gu Chaoyan and felt that she was not a very talkative person, but Mrs. Min subconsciously felt that her time with Gu Chaoyan would be great.
And the fact turned out to be exactly as she had anticipated.
She knew that Xinlin Mansion was a mansion with rules, but the rules in this mansion were quite normal. And Gu Chaoyan did not consider her as someone aloof.
In fact… today wasn’t the first time for her to meet someone who asked her to search for a book together.
There was a handsome and sunny man in the past, who would have done the same.
Mrs. Min sighed inwardly.
That man was already gone, but Gu Chaoyan was here.
Mrs. Min did not have the personality to say what she was thinking.
Confronted with Gu Chaoyan’s question, Mrs. Min thought for a while and said, “Nothing really. You remember that you gave Madame Min some cream as a birthday present, right? It works well, so I wanted to come to your mansion for that.”
Hearing the reason, Gu Chaoyan was slightly surprised, then she smiled.
“I have a lot of cream here, so if you want, just come and fetch it from me.” Gu Chaoyan smiled and turned to Sword One. “Sword One, have some packed for Mrs. Min!”
Gu Chaoyan had not expected that the cream she gave to Madame Min would become so popular, and it even became a favored thing for Mrs. Min! It was a gift that she had racked her brain to think of.
Gu Chaoyan chuckled.
“What about the payment?” Mrs. Min mentioned the money, and felt a bit uncomfortable. She looked forced and stiffened.
She was rarely involved with business deals. She would always be given presents when she expressed an interest in something.
This was the first time she purchased something herself.
She wondered if it was a right question to ask – what if it was a harsh issue for the seller?
Mrs. Min felt really confused at this moment.
Gu Chaoyan smiled. “Mrs. Min, if you like it, just take as much as you want. The cream consists of just petals and herbs, nothing very precious. It only takes some time to make, so if you want it, just take it. For me, making the cream is a very easy thing to do.”
Mrs. Min turned to Gu Chaoyan curiously, but didn’t say anything.
Gu Chaoyan smiled embarrassedly, “I charged First Ms. Min that much only because the Old Master of the Min Family doesn’t want to owe me anything, so I did that to save First Ms. Min from being trapped in a cycle. I don’t think that 2,000 liang is much for the Min Mansion, so I just used this amount as a price for an assured heart for First Ms. Min and Old Master.”
“…”
“But Mrs. Min, you are not afraid of being related to me, right?”
