Chapter 1376 - 366: No Farewell

Chapter 1376: Chapter 366: No Farewell

Then Yuchi simply couldn’t understand.

He was sitting on a small stool now, in the corner of the council hall, holding a small teapot, leisurely pouring himself tea.

He just couldn’t understand.

He didn’t know what they were talking about.

"So this kind of thing definitely isn’t something I can handle alone. It requires a lot of people’s cooperation to finally push Jiangnan out. As for whatever they’re talking about building, what is all that, really? It sounds mysterious, yet they can understand it. Could it be that I’m surrounded by big shots, and I’m the only rookie?"

Yuchi was very willing to be a rookie.

In such a situation where everyone around is reliable, it’s very comfortable. He doesn’t need to worry about such matters at all.

Anyway, he just needs to start things, and specialists will liaison after he’s done his part.

Bu Huoran was sitting next to him, nibbling on a bun.

Yuchi turned his head and suddenly gazed at her beauty: "Mrs. Bu, how is Tingyue doing over there? Has she passed the Cabinet’s assessment?"

Bu Huoran nodded with a charming smile and said:

"Yes, she has passed the assessment, so she’s now living in the Celestial Craft Workshop Cabinet."

"She has already left my side."

"Thinking about Luohua and Tingyue, both kids are gone now. I feel a bit too relaxed on my own."

Being relaxed is good... Yuchi laughed:

"So this time, are you staying, or will you head back to Cuncha City after this matter is handled?"

"Depends on you. If you want me to stay, then I’ll stay," Bu Huoran jokingly said.

"Of course, I’d like you to stay," Yuchi joked back, "After all, a beauty as beautiful as you staying in Jiangnan would be the perfect embellishment for our future image."

"Haha, Young Master Yuchi, you’re still the same. That’s very good." Bu Huoran laughed.

"And you haven’t changed either. It’s my honor to meet you."

Yuchi laughed.

...

The entire negotiation between the Celestial Craft Workshop and the Jiangnan Yamen lasted three days. After the three days were over, the Yamen would begin arranging the Celestial Craft Workshop’s entry.

However, it would take about two months for everyone at the Celestial Craft Workshop to come over.

These two months would be for personnel preparation, including arranging various tools.

And so, two months later, around May of this year, the Celestial Craft Workshop would officially start helping Jiangnan with the construction and development of the city.

The speed and efficiency were quite fast.

"So, Mrs. Bu, do you have to leave?" Yuchi asked Bu Huoran as they sat in a private room at an inn.

"Yes."

Bu Huoran nodded with a smile: "Handling this myself will be more efficient, so I’ll come back after two months."

"Alright then."

"See you in two months."

Yuchi stood up with a smile, ready to escort her out of the inn, as the people from the Celestial Craft Workshop prepared to leave.

But just then, Bu Huoran suddenly said: "Although I have a husband, our relationship is just nominal. Luohua and Tingyue are also girls I’ve adopted and raised; they are not my biological daughters."

After speaking, she looked at the man in front of her with a calm yet slightly expectant expression.

Her captivating silhouette, her charming and graceful demeanor, her black silk gown, and her slender arms gently crossed in front of her abdomen — a true lady of a wealthy family.

Yuchi: "..."

She was obviously hinting at something. If he didn’t understand, he’d be a fool. But understanding is one thing, and as for having any inexplicable relationship with her, he figured it was best left undone.

After all, she was his disciple’s mother.

Even if it was just in name, his disciple wasn’t aware of such matters, so if he had an ambiguous relationship with her mother, it wouldn’t converse well later. Not to mention, poor Wang Haoran might end up looking foolish with jealousy.

"But a light hug should be fine, right?"

Bu Huoran knew what Yuchi was thinking. She wasn’t disappointed or regretful; she just wanted to stand in front of this young man.

And Yuchi had nothing to say.

With a gentle smile, he embraced the woman in front of him, feeling her faint and unsteady breath. Though many things are complicated in words, their essence can be very simple.

Is it easy to get by in the Celestial Craft Workshop? Certainly not.

As an Outer Pavilion Master of the Celestial Craft Workshop, and as a powerful woman from the external pavilion, protecting oneself requires efforts far beyond imagination.

Bu Huoran must be extremely exhausted.

But oftentimes, she couldn’t show this exhaustion; she had to display the composure and confidence of an Outer Pavilion Master.

Such composure and confidence are manageable for a day or two, but displaying a vibrant appearance every day can be tiring for anyone.

At this moment, Bu Huoran was free of distracting thoughts, just resting lightly in the man’s embrace, breathing lightly and deeply.

Finally, with an emotional smile on her face, she sincerely said to Yuchi: "Thank you, now I’m off."

Yuchi nodded.

He did not escort her further.
