Chapter 1133 - 042 Dog Hole (Vote Request)_3
Xia Zheng laughed, "Those wines from Zhuma Town? Forget about them, why bother moving them all the way here? If they break along the way, I bet you won’t even find a place to cry."
Lin Yuan frowned, somewhat reluctant to part with the wines, "I’d feel more at ease if they were in my own cellar. Keeping them at the Fuman Building, I always feel like they aren’t mine anymore. I’m just afraid that one day Shopkeeper Liu might accidentally sell them, and that would be trouble."
Xia Zheng raised his hand and gently knocked on Lin Yuan’s forehead, his eyes curving into a smile, "You think Shopkeeper Liu is as scatterbrained as you? Selling them off! Let me tell you this, just be at ease. With Shopkeeper Liu’s shrewdness, if he really did sell them, they’d definitely fetch a sky-high price!"
Hearing this, Lin Yuan was finally reassured and chuckled, "If they really could be sold for a sky-high price, I wouldn’t even feel heartbroken!"
The two of them chatted and laughed, then Xia Zheng got up and went home. After running around outside all day, everyone was exhausted, and Lin Yuan fell asleep as soon as her head hit the pillow.
With yesterday’s lesson in mind, Lin Yuan no longer dared to sneak out. But as one might imagine, asking Lady Liu for "leave" indeed took some persuasion.
After Lin Yuan promised repeatedly that she would return before lunch, she and Xia Zheng happily set off.
No sooner had the elder sister left, when Xiao Linshuang, carrying a small bundle of dirty clothes, prepared to sneak out. Unexpectedly, Lady Liu, who was usually feeding Xiao Yongyan at this time, was sitting at the entrance of the living room drinking tea!
Xiao Linshuang made a face and reluctantly plucked up the courage to approach, making the same promise as Lin Yuan to return before lunch.
She thought Lady Liu would agree as readily as she had with her elder sister, but this time, she was truly disappointed.
