Wen Xinya had been neglecting the matters regarding the opening of the Lanxin Cosmetics shop front. Fortunately, everything had been going well thanks to Li Mengjie and Yan Shaoqing, as well as the fact that they only had to tie up some loose ends.

The advertising video that Si Yiyan had helped her produce was also ready. After viewing it together, Wen Xinya, Li Mengjie, and Yan Shaoqing all thought that it turned out better than they had imagined.

There were less than two days to go before the opening of the shop front. After checking their schedule and rundown for the day of the opening, Wen Xinya decided to go to Ninth-Heaven.

She had agreed to meet Zhou Tianyu and the rest at Ninth-Heaven. They had decided to shorten their vacation and come back early because of the opening of Lanxin Cosmetics. They planned to give her a boost on the opening day.

They arrived at Ninth-Heaven to see that Zhou Tianyu and the rest were already there. Wen Xinya put a hand on her forehead and realized that she would always be the one to arrive last to their gatherings. She remarked, "Why are you guys so early? I've even made an effort to leave ten minutes earlier and yet, I'm still later than you guys."

Zhou Tianyu smiled and jested. "We're all jobless, and all we do is have fun all day. Unlike you, Miss Wen. You're so busy and your time is very precious."

Gu Junling chimed in. "Yeah, Miss Wen, your time is very precious. We wouldn't dare to let you wait."

Ling Qingxuan poured Wen Xinya a glass of red wine and said, "See, you're always late for our gatherings. Shouldn't you be punishing yourself by downing a glass of wine?"

Wen Xinya grabbed the glass of red wine and looked at them before chugging it down.

"Great!" Ling Qingxuan exclaimed while applauding.

"Fantastic!" Gu Junling cheered, raising his arm.

"Go ahead and bully Xinya! Watch how Xu-er is going to punish you guys when he's back." Zhou Tianyu quipped nonchalantly.

At the mention of Xu Zhenyu, Gu Junling said, "Xinya, have you heard about this before? Xu-er made it to the Special Ops army the moment he joined the Xibei military camp. I even heard from Han Mofeng that the training at the Special Ops army is grueling and terrible… Being a soldier is indeed really tough."

Shaking her head, Wen Xinya said, "Xu-er has never contacted me ever since he left for the military."

Wen Xinya's spirits were dampened the moment she was reminded of Xu Zhenyu who had never once contacted her after he left for the military, even though he did stay in touch with Han Mofeng, Gu Junling, and Ling Qingxuan.

She hoped that Xu-er would embark on a new life of his own. However… when he finally did, she suddenly realized that she could no longer rely on him like she used to and there seemed to be an uncrossable river between them.

Noticing that she seemed to be in low spirits, Gu Junling was a little shocked and said, "I heard that they're very strict with the soldiers. Ever since he joined the military, he's only contacted me twice… "


Ling Qingxuan frantically chimed in. "He's only contacted me once!"

Zhou Tianyu raised her hand and said, "He's never contacted me before."

Wen Xinya snorted with laughter and asked, "Why do all of you look so stern and serious?"

Zhou Tianyu hurriedly tried to change the subject and asked, "By the way, Xinya, I heard that your grandfather was suddenly hospitalized. How's his health now?"

Wen Xinya answered calmly, "There aren't any major problems with his health now, and the doctor said that he just needs to recuperate well."

Noticing the aloofness in her eyes, Gu Junling knew that things were not as simple as she had made them out to be. "I heard that your grandfather has always been in the pink of health. How did he pass out all of a sudden?"

Wen Xinya said, "Ning Shuqian was stabbed by Shen Mengting with a pair of scissors previously and my father suspected that I had something to do with it, so he questioned me at the Wen mansion. My grandfather happened to catch him in the act. I have no idea what they said to each other, but a major conflict broke out. In the end…"

Although her grandfather had explained the conflict to her, she decided not to tell her close friends about it since dirty linen should not be washed in public.

Ling Qingxuan hurriedly said, "Good that everything is fine. Just send my regards to Grandpa Wen."

Wen Xinya agreed with a nod.

Gu Junling smiled and changed the subject. "By the way, Lanxin Cosmetics is going to open for business in two days. How have the preparations for the opening been? Do you need my help? I've been managing Floral Lingo Pavilion for a long time. Maybe I can help."

The advertisement that Lanxin Cosmetics had published on the beauty magazine of Floral Lingo Pavilion and had received a great response. Everyone was extremely excited. He believed that Lanxin Cosmetics would become a household name amongst the upper-class society in the city once they opened for business.

"Thank you. Most of the preparations for the opening of the shop front have been made. We don't need your help at the moment," said Wen Xinya, who was extremely moved. In fact, she did not plan to share the profits with Floral Lingo Pavilion and merely wanted to make use of the recognition that they possessed. In fact, she had gained many advantages from Gu Junling, who had given her lots of help. Otherwise, Lanxin Cosmetics wouldn't have had such a successful opening.

Gu Junling smiled and said, "Feel free to let me know whenever you need help."

Wen Xinya nodded and took out the recipe of a health supplement, which she had prepared previously. She handed it to Gu Junling and said, "This is the recipe for a dew essence that Ruoruo has just invented. We'd like to thank you for the help that you have given Lanxin Cosmetics during this period of time."

Gu Junling got a great shock. Although it was just a recipe for dew essence, the profits that the unique health supplement would bring to Floral Lingo Pavilion were unimaginable. He could not help but feel a little hesitant.

It was right for him to help a friend. However, he would be given credit if he could help reap so many benefits for Floral Lingo Pavilion.

Wen Xinya was heartened to see that he shared the same thoughts as her. It simply meant that he treasured their friendship greatly. "Why are you standing on ceremony with me? Women from the upper-class society like using essential oils and dew essences to nurture their body. However, they usually won't stick to just one brand and will often seek the opinions of beauty therapists. Hence, only beauty salons can bring out the true value of the essences."

Zhou Tianyu kicked Gu Junling and said, "Are you silly? Only fools would let go of an opportunity to gain an advantage. Trust you to be a businessman. You don't even understand such simple logic. Besides, Xinya is not an outsider. Of course she'd help you."

Ling Qingxuan said, "There's no need to be so calculative with your friends. Xinya understands that better than you. Look how accepting she is towards the help you gave her during the managing of Lanxin Cosmetics."

Realizing that he had been dwelling too much on it, Gu Junling grabbed the recipe and exclaimed, "Xinya, thank you so much!"
