There is a happy inn in the capital.

Chapter 280 Couples in Love

Li Shuchen immediately put down the grapes, shut his mouth, rubbed his wrists, rotated his neck, and then got up and took a few steps to stretch his back.

Full body activity

Dan Yue took down the painting and spread it out on the Eight Immortals table.

Li Shuchen walked closer for a closer look. The lively, lovely, and bright girl in the portrait looked exactly like her. The bunch of grapes was painted plump and juicy, and the window view in the background was also beautiful and realistic.

The main attraction is the color; it's rich and vibrant, bringing both people and objects to life.

Just like it was taken with a camera, absolutely perfect.

She would be willing to buy this painting for a hundred taels of silver, let alone ten.

"Pale Moon, your drawing skills are amazing!"

Li Shuchen gazed at the portrait, unwilling to look away.

Dan Yue smiled gently: "I'm glad Miss Li is satisfied."

"Grape, give Miss Dan Yue ten taels of silver."

"Yes, miss"

Dan Yue accepted the silver from Grape with both hands, her eyes sparkling with a smile: "Thank you, Miss Li."

After listening, Li Shuchen stared intently at Dan Yue, a smirk playing on his lips. His roguish demeanor made Dan Yue feel uneasy.

"Miss Li, please don't look at me like that."

Dan Yue's eyes darted away, and she lowered her head and whispered.

Realizing he had frightened Dan Yue, Li Shuchen immediately changed his thuggish demeanor and spoke gently, "Are the other painters' skills comparable to Miss Dan Yue's?"

Dan Yue looked up and replied, "We make a living in this line of work; everyone can become a master."

Li Shuchen raised an eyebrow: "Miss Dan Yue, would you be willing to do a big business deal with me?"

Dan Yue: "A big deal?"

Li Shuchen: "On the 14th of this month, your team will follow me to Hundred Flowers Manor. On the 16th, many wealthy young men and women will come to visit. You can take this opportunity to make a lot of money. How about I take three and you take seven of the silver?"

Dan Yue: "I am very grateful that Miss Li is willing to provide us with an opportunity to make money. The profits should be split 50/50 with Miss Li."

Li Shuchen waved his hand: "No, you've done all the work, I don't need to do anything. Thirty percent is already more than enough. Miss Dan Yue, there's no need to say anything more. It's getting late, go back and rest."

Seeing that Li Shuchen was serious, Dan Yue didn't try to persuade him any further. She reverently performed a bow that Li Shuchen couldn't understand, then left with her easel and paints.

Li Shuchen watched the pale moon's departing figure and laughed.

She's such a kind person! She's gone to great lengths for the happiness of Miss Dan Yue and Young Master Yuan Yi. This way, they can earn a lot of money and have their own home soon. How wonderful it would be for the young couple to live happily together!

There is no one in the world as kind-hearted as Li Shuchen. She is truly great, truly amazing, truly invincible.

After being happy, he gently rolled up the portrait on the table, intending to take it to the table the next day.

The next day, Li Shuchen brought the portrait downstairs early in the morning. As he walked into the living room, he happened to see Miss Dan Yue and Young Master Yuan Yi talking at the entrance of the inn.

The young couple has such a sweet relationship; she even escorted the groom to the entrance of the inn.

Pale Moon looked up, her eyebrows arched, and she smiled gently, revealing her youthful charm: "＆％￥＃＊％＆￥＃＊％＊＃％"

Huh? Why are the sweet nothings encrypted? Li Shuchen can't understand a word of them.

After listening, Yuan Yi gently raised his hand to help Dan Yue smooth her playful hair and skillfully tuck it behind her ear.

“&￥＃%＊＃%＆￥＊＃%＆＊”

It was another sentence that Li Shuchen couldn't understand.

It doesn't matter; with such affectionate glances and gestures, even if you don't know what they're saying, you can feel how much they love each other.

Yuan Yi left, and Dan Yue watched him go.

Li Shuchen stepped forward and greeted her, "Good morning, Miss Dan Yue."

Upon hearing this, Dan Yue turned her head and said softly, "Good morning, Miss Li."

The intense, blinding sunlight made people squint, and Li Shuchen instinctively raised his hand to shield his eyes: "It's hot outside, Miss Dan Yue, please go back inside to cool off."

"it is good"

Li Shuchen, holding Grape in one hand, hurried along the shady path to the entrance of Kong the Craftsman's shop, only to find himself unable to enter.

A wave of heat washed over her, making her feel feverish. Good heavens, who would dare go in like this?

Kong the craftsman spotted Li Shuchen and came out shirtless, saying, "Miss Li, is there something you need?"

Li Shuchen handed the portrait to the craftsman Kong: "Please inscribe this painting for me. The materials must be of good quality, and I'm not concerned about the time or price."

Upon hearing this, craftsman Kong wiped his sweaty hands on his trousers and accepted the gift with both hands: "Don't worry, Miss Li, it will be delivered to the Happiness Inn in five days."

Li Shuchen: Okay

After saying that, he turned and left the sweltering place with the grapes.

But Grape was still so hot that she kept wiping the fine sweat from her forehead with a handkerchief.

Li Shuchen, feeling sorry for Grape, said, "Grape, let's go buy some popsicles."

"Yeah"

Li Shuchen went to the popsicle vendor, spent ten coins to buy two popsicles, and handed one to Grape: "Eat it quickly."

"Uh-huh"

I took the grape, took a bite, and let it slowly melt in my mouth.

Li Shuchen also took a bite; the icy popsicle cooled her mouth and chased away much of the heat.

The two ate as they hurried towards the inn.

Three Treasures Hall

As soon as Li Shuchen entered, he saw Gu Ziying, Princess Changning, Liang Yuying, and Ye Bingli sitting around an octagonal table.

"Li Shuchen, you're eating an ice pop and you didn't even buy me one!"

Li Shuchen quickly finished the last bite, threw the wooden stick in his hand aside, and said, "You saw wrong, I didn't eat an ice cream."

Princess Changning crossed her arms and said, "Hmph, liar."

Gu Ziying smiled and said, "Alright, I'll just have someone go downstairs and buy a few more later."

"Jade, go buy four popsicles and bring them up."

Princess Changning gave the order.

Li Shuchen hurriedly said, "You've miscalculated. There are five of us; we should buy five."

"Oh? Really?"

Li Shuchen nodded hurriedly: "Yes, yes."

"Then let's buy five."

Princess Changning said casually

Jade: "Yes, Princess."

Li Shuchen smiled obsequiously: "Changning is so nice."

Gu Ziying: "We've started discussing important matters, specifically the fact that the Tenth Prince is coming to the banquet. What are your plans?"

Princess Changning shook her head

Liang Yuying remained silent

Ye Bingli was in a daze

Li Shuchen raised his hand and said, "I'll keep an eye on him. I'll be responsible for watching the Tenth Prince throughout the banquet. Ziying will be in charge of running the banquet smoothly, Changning will be in charge of the guests' safety, Yuying will be in charge of coordinating the girls to cooperate with Ziying, and Bingli will be in charge of being beautiful."

Ye Bingli: "It seems like I'm the only one with nothing to do."

Li Shuchen immediately retorted: "Why wouldn't you? You should take them to find an artist to paint their portraits, lead them in flower arranging, discover the beauty of various flowers, and plan for opening a flower shop in the future."

Ye Bingli: "Portrait of the artist?"

Li Shuchen nodded: "Recently, a group of painters from Boyu have checked into the inn. Their painting skills are so superb that they are exactly the same as what the naked eye sees. Tell me, who wouldn't want to leave their most beautiful image in the Hundred Flowers Field?"

Gu Ziying: "That's a good idea."

Li Shuchen: "When the time comes, the five of us will find the most beautiful spot to stand together, and let Miss Danyue paint a portrait of the five beauties for us."

Liang Yuying smiled and said, "Okay."

Ye Bingli: "When will you start painting?"

Li Shuchen: "After the guests entered the Hundred Flowers Manor and admired the flowers, Ziying introduced the painters, and then the painting began."

Gu Ziying and Ye Bingli nodded in unison upon hearing this.

"Princess, the popsicles have arrived."

Jade distributed the popsicles one by one.
