Chapter 72: Chapter 64: Ye Mingluo: My Master Is from Medicine Farmer Star (Second Update)_3

Ye Mingluo deliberately added that last sentence, worried that Xu Xingguang might disdain Huo Wen’an as a sickly person and would not accept Huo Wen’an’s sincerity.

He sincerely hoped that Huo Wen’an could have a beautiful romance.

Understanding the truth of the matter, Xu Xingguang, who was the Medicine Farmer Star herself, showed a very complex expression after hearing Ye Mingluo’s words.

She looked at her ’good apprentice’ with an indescribable look, intending to speak several times, but finally gave up.

"Well, good luck to you."

Ye Mingluo nodded with a smile, "Good luck to you too."

Ye Mingluo carried the breakfast, humming an unknown tune, and walked away. Xu Xingguang was in a daze for a while before riding her little electric scooter to University City.

In the afternoon, she went shopping with Zhang Zhiyi, and after a frenzied spree at the mall, she finally returned home late at night.

Huo Wen’an stood behind the window frame of the lounge, watching Xu Xingguang come home with large and small bags. He secretly opened his phone’s memo and quickly jotted down a few notes.

The memo was titled ’Everything About Miss Xu.’

In the memo, he wrote down Xu Xingguang’s specialties and hobbies. Through observation, Huo Wen’an summarized two specialties for Xu Xingguang so far: 1. Strongman; 2. Amazing culinary skills.

As for hobbies, he temporarily wrote only two: 1. Loves to laugh; 2. Loves shopping.

After putting away the phone, Huo Wen’an sat back in the recliner and opened the unfinished book "Guest on the Island" to continue reading.

Just spending time with Xu Xingguang alone was not enough to truly understand her.

It’s often said that the author’s soul and values are hidden in the story; Huo Wen’an wanted to see the Xu Xingguang in the story.

The Xiahou Family’s ancestor worship ceremony was a grand and solemn event.

On this day, all the young people who had been under the Xiahou Family’s care would temporarily put aside their work, dress in suits, and head to Tuo Ling Peak to attend the ancestor worship ceremony.

Likewise, the noble families that were on good terms with the Xiahou Family would also send some representatives to attend.

The founding histories of both the Chu Family and the Xiahou Family could be traced back two hundred years, but the difference was that they chose different paths.

The Xiahou Family went into politics for generations, while the Chu Family engaged in business throughout generations.

Through generations of accumulation, the Chu Family owned immense wealth and had become the true affluent and noble family of Yujiang City.

After enduring fifty years of hardship, the Xiahou Family finally rose one hundred and fifty years ago. Thanks to the paving work of past leaders, the Xiahou Family had now become the most illustrious noble family in the Xia Country Alliance Government.

The Xiahou Family lacked neither money nor power.

Although the Chu Family did not need to curry favor with the Xiahou Family, they dared not offend them either. Therefore, the two families maintained a decent relationship.

Whenever the Xiahou Family held an ancestor worship ceremony, the eldest son of the Chu Family would represent the entire family to attend.

This year, Chairman Chu decided to take Chu Zimu with him to the Xiahou Family.

Chu Zimu had officially started working at Yuyi International, beginning to take over various affairs of Yuyi International. This time, Chu Zimu attended the Xiahou Family’s ceremony as the heir of Yuyi International, accompanying his father.

Also accompanying him was his publicly acknowledged girlfriend, You Mingyue.

This was the first time You Mingyue attended an important event with Chairman Chu and Mrs. Chu as Chu Zimu’s girlfriend. She knew that countless eyes would be on her.

Her every move would be linked to the Chu Family’s image, so she couldn’t afford to make any mistakes.

From the day she received the news, You Mingyue began to prepare.

To this end, she specially ordered a black dress from an international high-end couture brand in Chu Zimu’s name.

On the day she went to pick up the dress, she inadvertently learned from employees that Xiahou Shang’s wife also had a dress custom-made at their store this time.

You Mingyue had met Zhang Zhiyi a few times. In her impression, Zhang Zhiyi wasn’t a great beauty, but her features were coordinated and dignified, able to hold up all kinds of imposing outfits.

Zhang Zhiyi was really lucky to have married Xiahou Shang, enabling her to casually visit such high-end fashion stores for custom clothes. Unlike herself, who had to borrow Chu Zimu’s membership to order something tailor-made.

Zhang Zhiyi was really lucky.

You Mingyue put on the couture dress, stood in front of the mirror carefully observing herself, and found that customized clothing was indeed different, with every inch just right.

Wearing the custom-made dress, You Mingyue felt her entire temperament had improved significantly.

As long as she could successfully marry into the Chu Family, she would become the second Zhang Zhiyi. Just thinking about it excited her!
