The strange female partner in Quick Wear is too sexy

Chapter 378: Seizing the Minister’s Wife 30

This was the location she had her eye on at first, but the landlord had no intention of renting it out, so she had to settle for the second best option and choose the shop that was interfered with by Lin Mingyue.

"What is this?" Sheng Rao looked at Xie Lan in confusion.

Xie Lan smiled and explained, "This is a shop under my name, located in the most prosperous area of ​​the capital. I think it should meet your requirements, Miss Sheng. If you like it, you can use it for the time being. When your clothing store business is booming, we can discuss the rent."

"How can this be possible? This shop is in such a good location, how can I use it for free?" Sheng Rao waved her hands repeatedly, trying to refuse.

Xie Lan insisted, "Why should we be polite to each other? I have great confidence in your clothing store. I believe it will become a highlight of the capital. This store is my investment in you."

Sheng Yan was confused as he listened nearby, but he also understood that the emperor was truly attracted to his sister.

But emperors have always been the most ruthless, and he was afraid that his sister would fall into despair again.

Although Sheng Yan was worried, he knew that now was not the time to show it and he could only wait and see. He looked at Sheng Rao and saw a thoughtful look on Sheng Rao's face.

But it was only a moment, Sheng Rao smiled and thanked Xie Lan.

"Thank you very much, sir. I will take over this shop."

Sheng Yan never expected that Sheng Rao would accept it directly. He thought his sister would refuse.

But looking at how the two of them were getting along, or the look in their eyes, he couldn't help but admit that something was going on between them.

Sheng Yan couldn't say anything now. He could only wait until Xie Lan left and then have a good talk with Sheng Rao.

But the three of them had almost finished three pots of tea, but Xie Lan didn't leave.

Sheng Yan, on the other hand, was in a hurry to leave.

At this time Sheng Rao spoke.

"Third brother, aren't you going back to Tong County?"

"Uh, don't worry, don't worry."

Sheng Yan smiled awkwardly, but he felt a little uneasy. Of course he wanted to go back to Tong County, but in this situation, how could he leave without worry? He had to stay and see what Mr. Xie's intentions were and whether he really had feelings for his sister.

"Third brother, if you are busy, please go back first." Sheng Rao saw Sheng Yan's embarrassment and took the initiative to speak.

"I'm not busy, I'm not busy." Sheng Yan waved his hands quickly, but was afraid that Sheng Rao would misunderstand, so he explained, "I just felt... well, I want to spend more time with you."

Xie Lan was listening, with the corners of her mouth slightly raised and a smile flashing in her eyes.

Xie Lan also understood what Sheng Yan was worried about, but he was absolutely sincere to Sheng Rao.

But what was Sheng Yan going to do in Tong County? He remembered that Sheng Yan was working as an editor. Even if something happened in Tong County, it shouldn't be the editor who went there.

Xie Lan really didn't know that Sheng Yan had been demoted. He was busy with state affairs at the time, and these small matters were handled by the Grand Marshal.

"Brother Sheng, why are you going to Tong County?"

After Xie Lan asked the question, it was Sheng Yan's turn to be confused. Wasn't it the emperor himself who ordered his demotion?

Sheng Yan was stunned for a moment, then he remembered that Xie Lan might not be aware of his demotion.

He sighed softly and briefly recounted what had happened.

"To be honest, I was demoted to the position of county magistrate in Tong County because I was framed." Sheng Yan's tone was filled with helplessness and reluctance.

After hearing this, Xie Lan frowned.

He didn't expect that Sheng Yan was demoted to Tong County because of false accusations, and he had no idea about the demotion.

Xie Lan was very optimistic about Sheng Yan, and he was more suitable to be an official in the court than Huo Changwen. However, he was demoted to a small ninth-rank official because of false accusations. How could he not be angry?

"How ridiculous! I will report this to the emperor and help you find out the truth!"

Sheng Yan can be considered his brother-in-law. How could he just sit back and watch when something happened to his brother-in-law?

When Sheng Yan heard this, a hint of surprise flashed in his eyes.

He knew that since Xie Lan had spoken, his grievances would definitely be vindicated.

If you think about it this way, there is actually nothing wrong with having the emperor as your brother-in-law.

"Really? Then I'll leave it to you, Brother Xie!" Sheng Yan stood up excitedly and bowed deeply to Xie Lan.

Xie Lan waved her hand, indicating that Sheng Yan didn't need to be so polite.

He already had a plan in mind and decided to personally clear Sheng Yan's name.

"Brother Sheng, don't worry. I will find out the truth of this matter as soon as possible and give you justice." Xie Lan said solemnly.

Sheng Yan was moved to tears and thanked him repeatedly.

He was unable to express his gratitude towards Xie Lan in words. He felt that the emperor was not as cruel as others said. He felt that Xie Lan was not only kind-hearted, but also talented and broad-minded.

At this time, Sheng Yan no longer thought that Xie Lan was a heartless emperor. Instead, he felt that Xie Lan and Sheng Rao were a good match.

Sheng Yan's mood gradually changed from being uneasy to being relieved.

However, seeing that it was getting late, he got up and said goodbye, preparing to return to Tong County.

Even if Xie Lan said that she would clear his name, as long as he was the commander of Tong County, he would take office.

Sheng Rao walked him to the door, and they smiled at each other, with family affection flowing silently.

"Third brother, take care."

"You too, take good care of yourself, and please thank you brother for taking care of my sister."

Sheng Yan has changed his opinion of Xie Lan. He feels that there is nothing wrong with Xie Lan as the emperor. At least he will not do anything bad to his sister now.

After seeing Sheng Yan off, Xie Lan still stayed in Sheng Rao's manor. He was about to return to the palace as he had a lot of things to deal with during these days.

He wanted to stay at Sheng Rao's farm to accompany her tonight.

As night falls, the village becomes quiet, with only the rustling of the breeze through the treetops and the chirping of insects in the distance.

Xie Lan sat in the courtyard carefully decorated by Sheng Rao, holding a cup of tea in her hand, but her eyes drifted into the house from time to time, where Sheng Rao was busy arranging matters for the opening of the new store.

A warm feeling surged in Xie Lan's heart, and he recalled every detail of his acquaintance with Sheng Rao.

From the initial accidental encounter to being with her now, he feels that he is so lucky.

As an emperor, he has countless responsibilities and constraints, but he is also willing to break those constraints for Sheng Rao and give her a warm home.

"It's late, young master, be careful not to catch a cold." Sheng Rao's voice broke the silence of the night. She handed a cloak to Xie Lan.

This cloak seemed to have just been sewn, and it was a men's style, which moved Xie Lan.

He took the cloak and put it on, feeling Sheng Rao's body temperature and faint fragrance that still lingered on it.

"I thought that with our relationship, we could already call each other by our names, right?" he said softly, with a barely perceptible tenderness in his voice.
