Chapter 107 Ruby Hairpin For You
Chapter 107 The ruby hairpin is for you
"The boss...it's really you!"
Shen Qinglan came to him with doubts. Seeing that he was a little excited, she thought she would not be able to meet him until the next spring.
Zhao Shun smiled at her and asked, "How are you doing lately? I heard that you made an ice house in the middle of summer, which was very cool. It's a pity... I didn't have the chance to enjoy it."
"This is not easy. Wait until next summer. I will give you the design drawings of the ceiling fan. The craftsmen in the palace will understand it at a glance." Shen Qinglan said.
"What's the fun in that?"
Shen Qinglan was confused, "Is it boring?"
"I'm alone, a comfortable room is nothing more than this. It would be even better if there was a beautiful woman, wouldn't it?"
Shen Qinglan was even more confused: "I heard that there are countless beauties in the young prince's house, and there are also many good friends in the Qinlou Chu Palace. Even the Yingshan Villa in Luoping City hides a peerless Qin Ji. The young prince...
…and you still don’t think it’s enough?”
Zhao Shun's face suddenly changed, "You...how do you know this?"
Thinking of the man from Yingshan Villa, he couldn't help but have a headache. He could only wait until Meng Yitang was dealt with before dealing with it.
"The young prince is famous all over the world. It's not difficult to know this. I also heard that when you were fighting in the frontier, you also met several dancers from foreign countries." Shen Qinglan said again.
"This...I mean...although there are many women, there are very few close friends."
Hearing Zhao Shun's explanation, Shen Qinglan couldn't help but look at him sideways. They had incurred so many romantic debts together, but they didn't even have his confidant. It would be too miserable for these women...
"What's your expression?" Zhao Shun was displeased.
Shen Qinglan returned to his serious look, "My young prince, why don't you go find some beauties for you?"
Zhao Shun was stunned for a moment, then rolled down his sleeves and turned sideways, "That's all, no need."
"Okay...young prince, why did you come to Luoping this time?"
Zhao Shun also looked down at her, squinting at her, "Guess."
"I guess they are here to deal with Meng Yitang!" Shen Qinglan whispered.
"That's a good guess. I heard that you didn't complain about your sufferings in front of Su Shiyi. Instead, you asked him to make decisions for the people and punish Meng Yitang and Cheng Guanwen. You are quite clever."
Shen Qinglan smiled and said, "The boss just handed over Meng Yitang's private mine some time ago. Now I stand up to be the victim. His Majesty and the ministers of the DPRK will inevitably doubt your intentions. After all, the disaster relief work of the Shen family at that time was
You personally recommended me. In this way, I can go away and hide my merits and fame, which will naturally help us get rid of suspicion and easily deal with that dog official."
Zhao Shun nodded, "Well, when it's over, I brushed off my clothes and hid my merits and fame. It was well done."
"Then boss...is there any reward?"
Zhao Shun raised his eyebrows, "Reward? Have you forgotten that you still owe me two life-saving graces?"
"Uh...can I redeem it once?"
"What do you think? Is your life so worthless?"
Shen Qinglan smiled evilly, and then said: "Since I can't redeem it once, why don't I get a reward?"
Zhao Shun sat down on the stone bench in the garden, "Don't tell me that you want to use your debt to pay for this reward. I don't think this thing is worth 128,000."
Shen Qinglan also sat down, looking downcast at the moon in the distance, feeling a little unhappy.
One hundred and twenty-eight thousand, two life-saving graces, I'm afraid I won't be able to repay them in this lifetime.
Zhao Shun took out a box from his arms and placed it in front of her, "This is a reward for you."
"What is it?"
"Would you know if you open it and take a look?"
Shen Qinglan opened the brocade box and saw a hairpin inside. It was very delicate, made of pure gold, inlaid with a ruby the size of a pigeon egg, and engraved with a hollow jasmine pattern. It smelled of a faint jasmine fragrance.
"Wow..." Shen Qinglan couldn't help but sigh, "So beautiful!"
Zhao Shun smiled, he knew she would like this hairpin, after all, it was specially made by a craftsman for her.
"This hairpin actually still has a fragrance, why?" Shen Qinglan asked.
"This hairpin has been smoked with jasmine, so it is fragrant." Zhao Shun replied.
"That's it, thank you boss, I like it very much."
Shen Qinglan was playing with the hairpin, and Zhao Shun suddenly reached out and took it, and carefully put the hairpin on her head.
She didn't dare to raise her head. She didn't know why, but her heart suddenly beat very fast. Zhao Shun was very close, and his eyes seemed to have been staring at her.
"This hairpin suits you very well."
"Really? Then I'll go back and take a good look in the mirror later."
Shen Qinglan still didn't dare to look up at him, but just touched the gem hairpin on her bun.
Zhao Shun smiled and asked, "Do you remember? I once told you that I fell in love with a woman whose family was very rich and wanted to marry her."
"Um."
Shen Qinglan prayed silently in her heart, hoping that he would never confess his love suddenly, she couldn't accept it!
"I'm going to her house next year to pay the betrothal gift, but I'm scared."
"What are you afraid of?"
"I'm afraid her family won't agree. After all, I am a romantic prince with a good reputation."
Hearing what Zhao Shun said, Shen Qinglan suddenly felt a little disappointed.
It seemed like she was overthinking it. How could he like her?
But that's okay, there was no possibility between them in the first place.
Seeing that she remained silent, Zhao Shun asked again: "Do you also think that her family will not agree to this marriage?"
Shen Qinglan took a long breath and said, "After all, you are the young prince. Even if you don't agree, her family won't dare to say anything."
Zhao Shun chuckled, "You are telling the truth. Actually, I don't care what her family thinks. I'm just afraid that she doesn't have me in her heart."
"Uh... Then why do you like her?" Shen Qinglan was confused.
"She is smart, beautiful, and has a good temperament. Every time I see her, I can't help but want to keep her by my side forever and protect her. In fact, we have met a long time ago.
It's just that she doesn't remember." Zhao Shun said.
He suddenly showed his deep affection for another woman. Shen Qinglan didn't know how to comfort her, so she just asked: "If she doesn't like you, what will you do?"
"I will find a way to make her fall in love with me. If I can't do it, I will never marry her."
Zhao Shun vowed, but Shen Qinglan didn't expect that he turned out to be a big lover!
"I don't know how to comfort you, well... in that case, then work hard and try to let her see your good side. Naturally, she won't care about the ridiculous things you did in the past."
"Then let me lend you some good advice. By the way, there will be a poetry party at Liu Mansion tomorrow night at dusk. Why don't you go and see it too?"
"Ah? It's a poetry meeting again! I'm not interested at all..."
"I have stolen the whiteness of pear blossoms and borrowed a ray of soul from plum blossoms. Wouldn't it be a pity not to have such a good literary talent like you? Besides, there might be a good show to watch tomorrow."
Shen Qinglan didn't understand, "What's the show?"
"Tomorrow's poetry gathering is actually Liu Rulin's birthday banquet. All the dignitaries from Luoping City are invited. What do you think there will be?"
