Lin Ruoxuan felt a little embarrassed by his undisguised smile. She pursed her lips and whispered, "Stop smiling. It's really ugly. It's not embroidered well at all. It's embarrassing."

She said this with self-mockery, yet a bit of stubbornness. Her face turned red, and her eyes were a bit evasive, not daring to look directly at Gu Nanyuan.

Gu Nanyuan smiled even more deeply, sat opposite her, stretched out his hand and gently lifted her chin, forcing her to look up at him: "Why are you embarrassed? As long as it's embroidered by you, it's the best in the world."

The affection and determination in his eyes made Lin Ruoxuan's heart beat faster involuntarily. "When you finish embroidering it, I will definitely wear it every day. No matter what it is, as long as it is made by you, it is a priceless treasure."

Lin Ruoxuan's heart trembled slightly, and the blush on her face became even more intense. She lowered her head and dared not look into his tender eyes: "Don't tease me, who would wear such an ugly thing."

She has never been good at needlework since she was a child, and the things she made were always disappointing.

Gu Nanyuan heard her words and explained seriously: "What I said is true. What you make is the best. No matter whether it looks good or not, as long as it is made by you, I will like it if it is placed next to me."

Lin Ruoxuan lowered her head and did not respond. She just continued to embroider the knee pad silently.

Seeing that she didn't say anything else, Gu Nanyuan stopped disturbing her. He leaned on a chair beside her and looked at her silently.

After a while, Lin Ruoxuan suddenly said, "Nanyuan, the weather is starting to get colder, and I want to stock up on some winter supplies in advance."

Gu Nanyuan frowned slightly: "You don't have to tell me about this. I know you can do it well. It's up to you."

Lin Ruoxuan looked at him and hesitated slightly: "But the question is, should I only stock up for our room, or should I prepare for the other rooms in the Gu family as well?"

She frowned. “It would cost a lot of money to stock up for everyone.”

Gu Nanyuan chuckled and said, "We should just take care of the stockpiling. The other families will have their share of the mansion and will receive a monthly allowance. As for whether to buy or how much to buy, it's up to them. Don't worry."

"I understand." Lin Ruoxuan breathed a sigh of relief, and the pressure in her heart was immediately relieved a lot.

She felt more relaxed, raised her head and smiled, "That's it, just prepare this room for us first."

Gu Nanyuan looked at her with a gentle look in his eyes: "As long as it is your decision, I support it."

Chapter 361

The next morning, Lin Ruoxuan went to the store to buy winter supplies.

She did not intend to stock up on charcoal randomly, but instead carefully selected some top-quality red basket charcoal.

Red basket charcoal has always been the best choice for winter heating. It not only burns for a long time, but also has even fire power, so it is no problem to use it for a whole winter.

Although it was much more expensive than ordinary charcoal, Lin Ruoxuan didn't care about that and she picked out enough quantity.

She did not deliver the charcoal directly to the main house, but asked Hongqiao to take the charcoal to Gu Nanyuan's outer house.

On their wedding night, Gu Nanyuan handed over all his assets and the key to his private vault to her, indicating that everything would be under her control from now on.

The outer house is Gu Nanyuan’s secret base outside, and it can be used to store these things now.

After buying these things, Lin Ruoxuan returned to Gu's house.

She had just stepped into the Gu family compound and hadn't even stopped when she heard Lin Ruoqiao's hurried footsteps.

As soon as Lin Ruoqiao saw the heroine coming back, she walked over without hesitation.

"Ruoxuan, come with me quickly!" Lin Ruoqiao pulled her hand and said hurriedly, with a hint of panic in her eyes.

Lin Ruoxuan was stunned, frowned and stopped: "Seventh sister, what's wrong? Why are you in such a hurry? What's the matter?"

Lin Ruoqiao came back to her senses and quickly lowered her voice: "It's Song Zhennan, he wants to see you!"

Lin Ruoxuan raised her eyebrows slightly, with displeasure flashing in her eyes, "The Song family has come to our house again? Why is it that it never ends after just one or two days?"

She sighed softly, feeling helpless.

"Forget it, since you have promised him, I will go and meet him." After Lin Ruoxuan finished speaking, she followed Lin Ruoqiao out of the Gu family's gate and walked towards the restaurant.

In the restaurant, Song Zhennan was already waiting in a private room.

Seeing Lin Ruoxuan coming in, Song Zhennan immediately stood up, his eyes full of anticipation, "Eighth Miss..."

After he finished speaking, he quickly changed his words: "Madam, you have worked so hard."

Lin Ruoxuan nodded slightly and replied politely: "Mr. Song, you are welcome."

She glanced around and slowly walked to her seat and sat down.

After Song Zhennan sat down, he got straight to the point. His eyes fell on Lin Ruoxuan's face, and his tone was full of pleading: "Madam, I came to you today to inquire about my elder sister's situation."

Lin Ruoxuan frowned slightly, but there was a hint of sarcasm at the corners of her mouth.

She looked at Song Zhennan, without any warmth in her eyes: "Mr. Song, I have already told Mr. Song and Mrs. Song that I don't know anything about Song Yuqing."

Her voice was neither fast nor slow, but every word seemed to hit Song Zhennan's heart.

Song Zhennan did not respond immediately, but just stared at Lin Ruoxuan for a moment.

Seeing that she looked determined and unwilling to reveal even a little, his anxiety grew worse, but he pretended to be calm on his face and sighed: "But Madam, I can only beg you now."

Lin Ruoxuan raised her eyebrows and smiled lightly, with disdain in her eyes: "If you really care about your sister, why don't you go directly to Nan Yuan? You know, he is the only one who can really know the truth of the matter."

"I'm just a woman and have nothing to do with this matter. If you really want to know, go find Nan Yuan." Her words were cold, with a sense of alienation.

Song Zhennan was a little stunned and at a loss.

After a moment, he sighed softly, his eyes flickering, "I know you have a deep relationship with Nan Yuan, but..."

"But?" Lin Ruoxuan's voice became colder, and her eyes gradually became sharper. "I'm just a man. Even if Nanyuan treats me well, he won't let me get involved in official business, so I don't know about Song Yuqing's affairs."

"If you want answers, go find someone who can actually give you answers instead of wasting your time like this."
