Chapter 287: Who’s Qi Sheng?

When Li Yufei heard what Qi Sheng said, she knitted her brows imperceptibly, but she quickly unfurrowed them again.
She smiled and tilted her head mischievously as she said, “Big Brother Sheng, why does it feel like you treat this maid especially well? It couldn’t be that you like her?”
Qi Sheng immediately turned to gaze into her eyes passionately as he flicked her nose in an annoyed and doting manner. “How could you talk about your Big Brother Sheng like that? Shouldn’t you know what kind of person your Big Brother Sheng is?”
Li Yufei scrunched up her nose and said, “Big Brother Sheng, you didn’t answer Yufei’s question. Do you like that maid? If you do, I can help you, you know.”
Qi Sheng shook his head and said firmly, “Don’t imagine things. She’s only my personal maid. She just likes strange makeup since she’s too ugly. In reality, she’s quite pitiful.”
Li Yufei loosened a breath in relief when she heard that Xiao Hong was ugly since an ugly girl wasn’t much of a threat. Everything she had said earlier was just to check if Qi Sheng still loved her.
Most women were usually somewhat aware when a man liked them, but Li Yufei viewed Qi Sheng’s adoration with contempt. They were childhood sweethearts since they had both come from merchant families.
Qi Sheng liked Li Yufei, but Li Yufei had bigger ambitions in mind and naturally had no interest in Qi Sheng. The only reason she came to find him this time was because her family’s business faced a problem and they needed this imperial merchant’s help.
However, after coming, she couldn’t fend off Qi Sheng’s male lead halo, especially when a beauty like Mu Yanmeng had expressed her love for Qi Sheng. Only the things that had a lot of people vying for them were the best. So when Li Yufei ended up sleeping with Qi Sheng, those feelings naturally progressed towards love. She came here with the intention of using Qi Sheng, but had ended up falling in love with him.
Ning Shu headed to the kitchen first to pass on the order, then returned to her room. She saw that Yue Lan was in the middle of sewing something. Grabbing an apple, she munched on it as she poked her head over to see what Yue Lan was sewing. “You’re embroidering a bamboo? That’s for men. Yue Lan, you already have a man?”
Yue Lan’s face flushed red and she refuted, “Miss, what are you saying? How could this servant have a man! Please don’t slander this servant’s purity!”
Ning Shu took another bite out of her apple and said with a laugh, “You’re already preparing a gift, how could you not have a man? Tell me, who is it? Is it someone from the Qi Residence? It’s probably not, right?”
Ning Shu stared at Yue Lan with wide eyes and Yue Lan immediately gave way under the pressure. “It’s not what you’re thinking, Miss. It’s just that guy.”
“Qi Sheng?” Ning Shu’s jaw dropped. Although Qi Sheng was good-looking and wealthy, he was still a scumbag of a man that wanted to two-time. There was no way he was worthy of her little Yue Lan.
Yue Lan stared blankly at Ning Shu and asked, “What does this have to do with Qi Sheng? Who’s Qi Sheng?”
After all that, it turned out that Yue Lan still didn’t know the name of this residence’s master.
Ning Shu asked, “Then who is this for?”
Yue Lan’s face was very red as she said shyly, “Miss, please don’t ask anymore. Your lipstick is smudged, you should go fix your makeup.”
“Don’t try to divert your miss’s attention. Answer me, who’s the man? I want to see if that man’s trustworthy enough for me to entrust you to him,” said Ning Shu seriously.
Ning Shu really did like Yue Lan quite a lot. Although she was a little strange at times, she was a good girl. It would be good if she could make sure that this girl got together with someone trustworthy before she left.
