C59 Peer Jealousy
That cautious appearance …
Lee Wanning's eyes suddenly became moist. When Zhou Qu turned around and was about to leave, Lee Wanning reached out her hand and pulled his sleeve.
This small movement made Zhou Qu, who originally wanted to walk outside, suddenly stop.
He turned his head in surprise, but Lee Wanning's hand was already around his neck.
Zhou Qu had been thinking about that feeling for a long time, but he still couldn't get a taste of it.
He had already endured for a long time, but he knew that before Lee Wanning could completely accept him, doing so would only tear the space between them apart.
At this moment, Lee Wanning's gentle kiss turned into a burning flame. Zhou Qu immediately pressed Lee Wanning's whole body under her.
Actually, she already predicted it when she promised Zhou Qu not to leave him. The reason she promised Zhou Qu not to leave her was not because she was afraid that she wouldn't be able to survive in this era.
When he was with Zhou Qu, although there was never any shocking story, the feeling of being with him was like a drop of water piercing a stone. It was something Lee Wanning could never forget.
Thinking about this, tears slowly seeped out from the corners of Lee Wanning's eyes. Zhou Qu seemed to be stunned for a moment, then he lowered his head and swallowed his tears one by one.
At that time, it suddenly started to rain outside, falling on the roof and making crisp sounds. Even so, the sound that couldn't be stopped was the bone-piercing sound inside the room and the soft voice, "Aa Ning, I will only be with you for the rest of my life."
However, things were unpredictable.
The next day, Zhou Huai, who was prepared to be depressed for the whole day, found out that his big brother and sister-in-law had made up when he was caught off guard.
This kind of thing could be seen from the dining table. Lee Wanning, who didn't care about Zhou Qu two days ago, suddenly put the dishes into Zhou Qu's bowl, and Zhou Qu also told her about the recent events. The happy and harmonious atmosphere between them made Zhou Huai feel that the icy attitude they had two days ago was just an illusion.
Since last year, when Lee Wanning's makeup shop was planned to this day, Boss Chen finally had some ideas. Boss Chen had built a small shop for him nearby, it wasn't big, only 30 square meters, but Lee Wanning had some small gadgets with her. It was enough for the place, and it wasn't too far from where she used to live, so Lee Wanning was very satisfied.
Lee Wanning didn't want to argue with Boss Chen about it and just said, "I am quite satisfied with that shop. Unexpectedly, you really put your heart into it."
Hearing Lee Wanning's words, Boss Chen was a bit unhappy and said, "Look at what you've said. Although I can't be a traitor, but I will still do my best for my friends."
Lee Wanning smiled and was about to leave after counting the taels of silver in her hands. Boss Chen called out to her, "Can you let me buy into your store?"
It was only then that Lee Wanning realized he was up to this idea.
She smiled amiably and shook her head. "This won't do, this is my own shop. But don't worry, I won't fight over the business with you. I won't repeat the business in my shop with yours."
Only then did Boss Chen relax and said, "I know you are a loyal person. Regarding this, I have never doubted you before."
Lee Wanning felt that this was against her will. However, in order to make Boss Chen look more natural, she could only say, "Thank you. Contact the owner for me sometime. I want to rent this house."
"Buying this house might cost two hundred and fifty to sixty taels of silver. Renting this house would cost twenty taels of silver a year, why don't you just buy it?"
Lee Wanning shook her head and said, "I'm not very satisfied with this store either, but I don't see anything suitable for now. I'll rent it for two years and try. If it's good, I'll open a big one."
Boss Chen looked at Lee Wanning's expression and laughed, "I really can't find another woman like you."
Lee Wanning snorted and said, "That's a must. I've said it before, I'm a potential force."
Lee Wanning had so much money on her, but she was able to walk without worry all the way home. When she arrived, she saw that the entrance to her shop was a complete mess, as were the items on the counter.
Lee Wanning's expression immediately changed. She immediately rushed over and asked, "What's going on?"
"Boss is here!" You're the boss here, right? " One of the tall men standing in front of him said, his face full of anger.
Lee Wanning looked at him and said, "I am."
"It's her! Kill her for me!"
Lee Wanning had just said that sentence when that man spoke directly. Moreover, under his voice, everyone picked up their things and prepared to smash them onto Lee Wanning's body.
Lee Wanning immediately held her head, but the pain she imagined didn't come.
Lee Wanning raised her head and saw that Zhou Qu was already at her side. He broke the stick in their hands into two and protected her behind him. "What are you doing!?"
Zhou Qu's voice was filled with rage. In addition to his calm and imposing manner, many people here obviously took a step back. Only the man in front of them paused for a moment and said, "What are you doing? You unscrupulous shop owners have completely destroyed my wife's face, yet you still have the nerve to tell me what I am doing? Today, I will destroy your shop! "
After he finished, those people called out to him and were about to come up, but Zhou Qu shouted, "I want to see who dares!"
With that, everyone present was shocked. Zhou Qu looked at the man, "What do you think about your wife's face? What makes you say that our things were destroyed? "Let me tell you, if you dare spout nonsense, I will bring you directly to the county magistrate's mansion!"
Zhou Qu's eyes opened wide as he spoke and the man's body trembled. Then, he said, "It's something from your family. Look …"
As he spoke, he walked to the side and pulled out a woman who was hiding in a corner. Her face was covered by a cloth, but a red dot could be seen on her forehead.
Lee Wanning's eyebrows creased. She immediately walked up and looked at her face as she said, "This is the first time you've bought something from my house, right?"
The woman kept nodding her head.
Lee Wanning took a deep breath and said, "Didn't I tell you before you bought it? Before you can apply it on your face, you must first test it out behind your ears and on the place where your hands are, and if there are no problems, then you can use it. "
The woman stopped talking.
The man beside him saw the situation and said, "Anyway, this belongs to your family, so don't even think about denying it. Say it, how do you want to compensate?"
It was obvious that the man wanted money. Lee Wanning looked at the woman who lowered her head and said, "The effects of these things vary from person to person and there's no problem with so many people using them. The reason why you are doing this is because you are allergic."
Lee Wanning said as she entered the room. She quickly entered her own space and bought some medicine from the pharmacy. She placed it on the woman's hand and said, "Eat it. If there are any problems, I will accept the compensation."
Lee Wanning's voice was calm. The woman slowly took off her veil, lowered her head and swallowed the medicine in her hand.
Lee Wanning knew that the medicinal effect wasn't that fast, so she said, "If the others are fine, then let's disperse. If it really is my problem, then I will definitely compensate them."
"Since his face is ruined, so what if you lose money?" said one of them.
Someone immediately echoed, "That's right, this is all a lie. My wife is infatuated with their family's stuff, so she must spend a lot of money here every month. She must be the one who gave them the bewitching soup!"
Hearing this, when Lee Wanning was about to step forward, Zhou Qu, who was beside her, had already stopped her.
He said, "Trading is a matter of our will, and we have always been open about it. If you don't want to buy it, we will not force you, and we don't need to slander our reputation!"
Zhou Qu's words reminded Lee Wanning of one thing.
Recently, he had been thinking about how to open up a makeup shop. What he didn't expect was that with his business becoming more and more popular, it would arouse the resentment of his peers.
They only sold ordinary rouge and cosmetic products, while his things were brought out from the space. They had never seen anything like this before, so how could they not be resentful?
After taking the pill, the red dot on her face had clearly faded quite a bit, but that man was still fanning the flames at the door. Many of the people who wanted to buy things had also shrunk quite a bit when they saw that woman's appearance, and a few even said that they wanted to return the goods.
Just as Lee Wanning was angry, a voice suddenly came from behind her. "Don't go overboard!"
