After Listening to What Inside My Mind the Female Leads Want to Flung Into My Harem

Chapter 197 – Widow Liu Ruyan



Panjiayuan, a luxurious antique shop.

Ye Qiu rode up on a small electric scooter and parked it at the entrance.

Compared to the other luxury cars in the parking lot, his little scooter looked quite shabby.

The security guard at the door shook his head, a look of disdain in his eyes.

Coming to a place like this without money, isn't that just asking for trouble?

Seeing Ye Qiu trying to park in one of the lot's spaces, a security guard couldn't help but speak up.

"Buddy, what are you here for? Park your scooter somewhere else; this isn't the place for you."

"If the parking lot isn't for parking, then where should I park?"

Ye Qiu's face darkened, and he sneered inwardly, cursing the guard for looking down on him.

"Just find somewhere else to park, as long as it's not in a space or the aisle."

The guard's tone was becoming impatient.

The shop had rules; these spaces were reserved for esteemed customers.

A small scooter parked here, what the hell is that?

If the management saw it, they'd dock their pay.

Another guard came over, patted his shoulder, and laughed.

"Don't waste your breath on this guy, just kick him out. Don't you know who he is?"

"He's the most famous freeloader in Yanjing, and he's even got crap on him. It's hilarious; I guess eating too much free food messes with your stomach."

Hearing the word "freeloader," the guard's attitude shifted from impatience to disdain.

He mocked, "I was wondering who the hell would be so brainless to park a scooter here. Turns out it's the freeloader. No wonder, his face is thicker than most."

The two guards laughed heartily.

Ye Qiu glared at them fiercely, then parked his scooter in a corner.

He walked into the antique shop expressionlessly.

He bet that when he came out later, those two guards would be on their knees begging for forgiveness!

Tang Yu, standing at a distance, couldn't help but grin at the scene.

As the antagonist, he found this kind of scene increasingly satisfying.

According to the system's spoilers, Ye Qiu was here to show off in the antique shop.

Once he earned the respect of the Liu family's eldest daughter, Liu Ruyan, those mocking guards would be in trouble.

It's the typical feel-good novel pattern.

First, lay a little groundwork, then make each step a continuous face-slapping fest, making everyone who looked down on the protagonist pay the price.

"Just wait, I'll make sure you can't show off, let's see how you keep slapping faces."

Tang Yu chuckled darkly, opened the front camera on his phone, and took a look.

His face had transformed into that of a man in his thirties.

With a mask and sunglasses on, he was unrecognizable.

He even changed his wig, as the blonde hair was too conspicuous.

True blondes don't need horns on their heads, just in their hearts.

Once he confirmed his identity was well hidden, Tang Yu followed him into the antique shop.

The shop was quite large, with four floors in total.

Each floor housed different types of antiques, with the first floor mainly displaying porcelain.

Ye Qiu was already wandering around the shop.

Tang Yu kept a few meters' distance, also wandering aimlessly.

To blend into the plot and earn rewards, he was acting like a stalker.

According to the system's spoilers for today, Ye Qiu would encounter Liu Ruyan, the eldest daughter of the Liu family in Yanjing, in the antique shop.

He would help her solve a big problem, earning her favor.

This would lay the groundwork for Ye Qiu to win over Liu Ruyan and the Liu family behind her.

It's the typical pattern of a son-in-law novel.

Only the Lin family, which Ye Qiu married into, saw him as worthless.

Apart from them, all the great families were impressed by Ye Qiu, following his every command.

Yet the Lin family stubbornly failed to see it and kept trying to trouble Ye Qiu.

Only to be repeatedly humiliated by Ye Qiu and these great families.

In the end, when they finally realized, they would be ruined and start groveling to Ye Qiu.

They would wash their faces with tears every day, regretting missing out on a peerless talent.

At this moment, Ye Qiu was unaware that a pair of eyes were watching him from the shadows.

According to the information provided by the old butler, he knew Liu Ruyan would come to the shop today to maintain her most cherished jade figurine.

This jade figurine was a gift from her father when she was ten.

Her father had carved it himself, taking over three months to complete.

So Liu Ruyan treasured this gift immensely.

Especially after her father passed away from cancer, she valued it even more, bringing it to the shop for maintenance every month.

For Ye Qiu, this was the perfect opportunity to make his move.

As long as he seized this chance and made Liu Ruyan feel favorable towards him, winning her over would be a piece of cake.

After a while, an extremely beautiful elegant lady walked into the shop.

Her enchanting eyes were captivating.

Her sexy lips were painted with bright red lipstick.

That striking touch of red was the finishing touch.

It made the male customers in the shop stare, wanting to taste her lipstick.

She wore a black dress that accentuated her voluptuous figure and slender waist.

While sexy, she also exuded a faint scholarly aura.

These two qualities blended seamlessly, making her beauty stand out.

She was unforgettable at first glance in the crowd.

One male customer, holding an antique porcelain vase, was so mesmerized that he almost dropped the million-dollar piece.

As one of Yanjing's most famous beauties, Liu Ruyan was used to the attention.

Holding a box, she walked into the shop and called out to a middle-aged man.

"Uncle Liu, please maintain the jade figurine for me."

The middle-aged man she called Uncle Liu was the shop's manager.

Seeing Liu Ruyan, he hurried over and respectfully said, "Miss, you're here. Please go to the back and have some tea. I'll call you when it's done."

"Okay, thank you."

Liu Ruyan smiled and nodded, handing the box to Uncle Liu.

As Uncle Liu took the box, his hand suddenly went numb, as if he lost all feeling.

The box slipped from his hand and fell to the ground with a thud, shocking both him and Liu Ruyan.

"Oh my god."

Liu Ruyan quickly picked up the box and took a look.

Her pupils contracted, her face turned pale, and she was in disbelief.

The jade figurine she cherished so much had broken in two.

Her eyes reddened, and tears fell like rain.

This was the most precious gift her father had left her. She would rather break her own hand than see the jade figurine in two pieces.

Uncle Liu was terrified, knowing full well how much this meant to her.

He stammered, "Miss... let me explain, I didn't mean to. My hand just went numb and I couldn't hold it."

"Don't explain to me now, just find someone to fix it."

Liu Ruyan looked up at him, not even having the energy to be angry.

The urgent matter was to get it repaired quickly.

"Okay, okay, I'll get Master Gu."

Uncle Liu was filled with regret, wishing he could slap himself.

He knew he wouldn't be able to stay in the shop after this blunder.

Master Gu, whom he mentioned, was the resident expert, Gu Yunqing.

He was a master in the antique world, revered in Panjiayuan and beyond, skilled in antiques from all dynasties, and renowned for his restoration work.

Even the Forbidden City paid a hefty price to hire him for assistance.
