The cheongsam beauty is in her arms, and the ascetic warlord loses control over her

"backyard."

The second shopkeeper told Gu Shiyao the specific location of the box, and Gu Shiyao walked through the cheongsam shop and came to a room in the backyard.

She saw a lock hanging on the box, and remembered that Ming Qinghan put a key in her hand before leaving. At that time, she asked him what the key was, and he just said that he would use it when he needed it.

She took out the key from her bag, unlocked it, and opened the box. Inside the box were neatly placed pieces of fabric.

Gu Shiyao picked one up at random, and she touched the material. I am afraid that this priceless thing did not belong to Ming Qinghan, but was specially left for her by her grandmother.

Gu Shiyao closed the wooden box, turned around and asked, "Second shopkeeper, how is the restaurant business lately?"

"It's very good. Awen manages it very well. Many wealthy and upper-class dignitaries come to our restaurant to have dinner. The shopkeeper, because of the warlord, our restaurant is completely popular."

"As long as there is business, we will double the wages of all workers at the end of the month. Everyone has worked hard with me for so long."

The second shopkeeper had a smile on his face: "It's not hard work. It's our honor to have a shopkeeper as our boss."

"One more thing, shopkeeper, Mr. Yan just came to see you. He said he would go out to buy some things and would be back in a while."

Gu Shiyao nodded, and the figure of Yan Qing immediately appeared in her mind. Among the people she knew, except for Yan Qing, there was no one else named Yan.

"You watch from the counter, and if he comes, invite him to the backyard."

The second shopkeeper said: "Don't worry, shopkeeper, I will personally send him to the backyard."

After the second shopkeeper left, Gu Shiyao sat on a chair. She carefully selected a fabric and spread it on the table.

She used scissors to cut and make samples. She planned to start a cheongsam trend in Yunzhou City. She wanted all the women in Yunzhou City to be able to wear cheongsams from Yueji Cheongsam Shop.

Soon, Gu Shiyao became busy.

Yan Qing came to the backyard. He knocked on the door of Gu Shiyao's room and said, "Boss Gu, long time no see."

Gu Shiyao raised his eyes, a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes: "Yan Qing, you are here."

Yan Qing walked in. He saw the cloth spread on the table and touched it. It was exactly what he thought.

This kind of fabric was ridiculously expensive. He didn't expect Gu Shiyao to have such expensive material on his hands.

He put the gift in his hand on the table and found a chair to sit down.

"Boss Gu, I didn't talk to you when we opened the business. When I come here today, I want to talk to you about Ming Qinghan."

Gu Shiyao was surprised: "Ming Qinghan?"

Yan Qing nodded. Boss Gu was his friend and he felt that he had to remind her.

"I believe the Overseer has told you that this person is extremely dangerous and you'd better not have too much contact with him."

Gu Shiyao pursed her lips and smiled. Mu Yichen had emphasized this matter to her many times before, telling her to stay away from Ming Qinghan at all times, but it was no longer necessary now. She and Ming Qinghan had already established a relationship.

Gu Shiyao thanked him sincerely: "Yan Qing, thank you for saying these words to me, but now, Ming Qinghan is my friend, and he will not do anything detrimental to me. You can rest assured about this."

Yan Qing felt that this matter was magical, and he asked: "Can I know why you became friends?"

Gu Shiyao smiled slightly, and she simply tidied up the cloth on the table. "Actually, I don't know where to start with this matter, but what I can confirm is that, like you, he and I are very, very good friends."

Yan Qing didn't ask any more questions. He knew that everyone had a secret in their hearts. Since Boss Gu had said so, there was no need for him to continue questioning.

"Boss Gu, Xu Jingzhi and I will treat you and the governor to dinner tonight at the restaurant you just opened."

Gu Shiyao smiled slowly, why not rush to give her money? Could she kill the lamb hard?

……

Mu Yichen drove to the office building, and soon Su Cheng got the news. He walked to the office with a top-secret file bag.

He knocked on the door and waited for two seconds before pushing the door open and entering.

Su Cheng did not speak in a hurry, but immediately observed Mu Yichen's facial expression. He was now good at reading faces and acting.

If the Overseer is in a good mood, he will have no problem teasing him. If the Overseer is in a bad mood, he will not dare to say a word.

Su Cheng walked up to Mu Yichen and teased a little: "Overseer, you came back so soon. I thought you and Boss Gu planned to hang out for a few more days."

Mu Yichen narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a serious smile: "Who did you listen to?"

Su Cheng placed the file bag on Mu Yichen's desk. He raised his eyebrows and said with a smile: "Warlord, you will know just by looking at it. Do you need others to tell you?"

Mu Yichen touched his chin. It seemed that many people knew about this matter.

Immediately afterwards, Su Cheng sat on the chair opposite Mu Yichen.

He raised his head and said: "Overseer, it's your birthday at the end of this month. Your birthday is coming soon. Will you start sending them invitations one after another from today?"

Mu Yichen paused for a moment. In the past few years, his birthday arrangements were simple, but now it was different. With Gu Shiyao this year, he wanted to make it grand.

By the way, on this birthday, he wanted to discuss countermeasures with He Jiushi.

Rongcheng is the area under his jurisdiction. Rongcheng has been in turmoil recently. In just a few days, it was attacked several times by the enemy.

Although Su City sent troops to Rongcheng to provide support, many soldiers still died. Just last night, there was no movement from the enemy.

Mu Yichen thought hard for a while, but could not come up with a perfect solution. He wanted to sit down with He Jiushi and discuss it with each other.

He nodded: "Send out all the invitations this week, and don't forget to inform He Jiushi."

"Yes, Overseer."

Su Cheng sat up straight and said seriously: "Overseer, during the past few days when you are away, Qin Jingzhou will get off work an hour early every day. I think he is too preoccupied with falling in love to work."

Mu Yichen thought to himself that Su Cheng was really good at informing him. It seemed that he was envious of Qin Jingzhou.

Based on his understanding of Qin Jingzhou, he would not leave his work and go out for fun. The last time he skipped work, he finished his work before going on a date with Mo Weiyue.

Mu Yichen opened the file bag Su Cheng placed on his desk and asked, "Where are Adjutant Zhang and Wen Qian?"

"Adjutant Zhang gets off work on time every day. Wen Qian, like him, didn't notice anything strange."

Mu Yichen scanned the contents of the file bag at a glance. When he saw something, he couldn't help but frown. It seemed that the situation in Rongcheng was worse than he imagined.
