Chapter 1324 - 182, Life-saving Grace (Second Update)_2
"You are the legitimate daughter of the Han mansion, while she is just a second wife brought up by a little concubine. It’s natural for her to value and treat you well."
Although Lin Yuan said this, Han Huijuan simply smiled, looking at Lin Yuan gratefully, "Yuanyuan, I know I am gentle by nature, but I am not foolish. When she suddenly started treating me well, I understood what was happening. So, I still want to thank you. In the Capital city, other young ladies look down on me, saying my mother is inferior even to a concubine. They say I am no good either. It’s only you who were willing to help me when I was down. Yuanyuan, I will never forget your kindness, and I will definitely repay you."
"Hey!" Lin Yuan scolded her with a stern face, "What is this talk of repaying and kindness? Are we not friends? If you see me as a friend, then there’s no need for talk of repaying or owing favors. We should naturally help each other without keeping such distance."
Watching Lin Yuan never mention the incident at the Yao Mansion and instead address her as a friend, Han Huijuan’s tears came again; she picked up a handkerchief to wipe them away.
Seeing her alternating between crying and laughing, Lin Yuan shook her head. This was a person who had walked back from the Ghost Gate, how could she still be so sentimental? Ah, all those stories of changing drastically after a major calamity, they weren’t reliable after all.
As they were talking, Xiao Linshuang suddenly ran in from the outside. Seeing Han Huijuan, she paused, but quickly greeted her with a smile before turning to Lin Yuan, "Big sister, I’ve got the new recipe nearly ready; let’s choose a good day and open up! The ladies outside can’t wait!"
It wasn’t those people who couldn’t wait; it was clearly Xiao Linshuang who couldn’t wait!
"Alright, go and discuss a good day with your Master, and we can open then! Don’t too early, though, as the shop renovations won’t be ready until next month."
"Okay!" Xiao Linshuang said with a laugh, waving her hands like a joyous rabbit before running out.
Han Huijuan sighed with envy and asked curiously, "Yuanyuan, are you opening a new store? I’ll definitely come and support you!"
"Sure!" Lin Yuan smiled at her, "Speaking of it, I have to thank you. If it hadn’t been for Sister Rong bringing people to cause trouble at my sister’s stall, her Condensation Dew wouldn’t have become famous so quickly. It was that incident that alerted me that something was wrong and made me go to the Han mansion to find you."
