Chapter 1373: The Fresh Flowers the Secretary Prepared for You

“Then… Why is she with you when her gallery opens today? Does she not care about her own gallery?” Liang Mulan asked again.

“She came to bring me lunch at noon. I heard that her brother was watching over the gallery for her.”

Hearing this, a hint of a smile appeared in Liang Mulan’s eyes. “Even during her art gallery’s opening, she doesn’t forget to monitor you for lunch!”

Lin Chen didn’t reply, merely saying to Liang Mulan, “So you don’t have to worry that I’m behaving irresponsibly toward any young ladies. Lu Yunfan would see it for herself that I’m not a fun person to be around with, so she would probably give up after one month is up!”

“What are you talking about?” Liang Mulan glared at Lin Chen. “If Miss Lu is a good person, you should get along well with her. Don’t harbor any thoughts of breaking up a month later and treat her well! Look at how much the young lady cares about you. It would be foolish of you if you treat her badly!”

Lin Chen laughed softly.

“Xiao Chen, regardless of whether it’s Miss Lu, Miss Jian, or Miss Gao, marriage is mainly about mutual affection. You two have to like each other! Because life is already filled with troubles to begin with. If you don’t like the person with whom you would spend the rest of your life, then life would even be more difficult!”

Liang Mulan grabbed Lin Chen’s hand, holding it tightly as she said, “Mom doesn’t want you to think so lightly of marriage… If you do, your life would be so boring.”

“I got it, Mom! Don’t worry… I know what to do!”

After leaving Lin Corporation, Liang Mulan let out a long exhale. Then a smile curved her lips…

Although Lin Chen wasn’t willing to admit it, she could tell that he had a good impression of Lu Yunfan. His lips always curled up when he spoke of the young lady.

What kind of girl could have enlightened her hard-hearted son?

At the thought of this, Liang Mulan suddenly wanted to visit Lu Yunfan at her gallery.

She called out to the driver. “Old Zhu, please drive to the Lin Jianyun Gallery…”

“Okay, Madam!” The driver, Old Zhu, turned around at the intersection and drove towards the art gallery.

Lin Jianyun Gallery…

Liang Mulan’s eyes suddenly lit up. She didn’t know if she was overthinking things!

Lin Chen and Lu Yunfan?

Was that not what it meant?

Regardless of what it meant, Liang Mulan was in a good mood that instant…

When Liang Mulan arrived at the gallery, it was no longer as lively as it was in the morning. The staff were busy packing up.

Seeing the elegant Liang Mulan appear at the door, one of them hurriedly went up to her.

Liang Mulan asked them not to mind her. She just came to see if there were any paintings that fit her heart.

When the cheerful Lu Yunfan heard there was a guest, she went downstairs to greet the guest. She asked Liang Mulan, “Would you like me to tell you more about these paintings, Madam?”

Liang Mulan looked at the young lady standing in front of her. Her eyes were so clean they looked like they had been washed by rain. She smiled. ” And you are?”

“My name is Lu Yunfan. I’m the owner of this art gallery…” Lu Yunfan said in a delicate voice.

Lu Yunfan’s smile was sweet and welcoming… making one feel comfortable just looking at her.

“Okay. Yes, I’d like to hear more about these paintings. Thank you.” Liang Mulan was very polite.

Lu Yunfan brought Liang Mulan to each of the paintings, telling her the story behind them. She told her about the artists and the source of inspiration for the artist, as well as the brush and paint that the artist used. She was very knowledgeable and professional.

Liang Mulan would occasionally ask a few questions, to which Lu Yunfan answered competently.

“Miss Lu, since you know so much about the art behind these paintings, your drawing skills must be pretty good. I wonder if Miss Lu’s paintings are also displayed here?” Liang Mulan asked.

Lu Yunfan looked a little embarrassed upon hearing the question. She smiled foolishly and said, “This is rather embarrassing to say… I always liked to draw when I was young, but my drawing skill didn’t match my love for it. Since I’m not talented enough to be an artist, my dream changed to opening an art gallery of my own. Now, I’ve achieved that dream.”

That was what Lin Chen had also said…

Liang Mulan nodded and bought a painting.

After giving it some thought, Liang Mulan didn’t take the painting with her that day. She said, “It’s a bit troublesome for me to bring the painting home since it’s raining today. I don’t know if it’s convenient for Miss Lu, but could you help bring it over to my place when the weather is good? Since I like Miss Lu, I’d also like to invite Miss Lu to visit me and see my collection…”

Lu Yunfan really loved paintings. When she heard that Liang Mulan had a collection of paintings at home, she accepted Liang Mulan’s invitation. She asked Liang Mulan to leave her address and phone number, saying she would call her once the weather picked up. If it was convenient for Liang Mulan, she would personally send the painting over.

Having successfully deceived a potential future daughter-in-law, Lu Yunfan, into coming home as a guest, Liang Mulan happily left her address and phone number.

When Lin Chen came to pick Lu Yunfan up in the afternoon, Lu Yunfan told Lin Chen that she had met a particularly nice lady today. Both of them liked paintings, and she felt they wouldn’t run out of topics to talk about. That lady bought a painting and even asked her to send it over to her residence to let her see her collection.

Seeing how happy Lu Yunfan was, Lin Chen nodded and asked, “What do you want to eat?”

“Anything! We’ll eat whatever Brother Lin Chen wants to eat! I’ve sold several paintings today, so it’s my treat!” Lu Yunfan said proudly as she patted her chest.

“I’m not sure about your taste. What do you usually like to eat?” Lin Chen asked.

“I’m not picky with my food. I’ll eat anything that tastes good!” After she said that, Lu Yunfan felt like a talking pig, so she quickly corrected herself. “Ah, when I wanted to treat Sister Nuan Nuan to a meal previously, I searched online for a good gourmet restaurant in Haicheng. I found a popular restaurant called Wang Mang. I heard it was opened by a retired soldier. Otherwise…”

Lu Yunfan paused again. It was her first time treating Lin Chen to a meal, so how could she invite him to a popular restaurant which might be crowded? Of course they had to go to a high-class restaurant!

So, Lu Yunfan added, “Why don’t we go there next time? I know a French restaurant that’s not too bad. I ate there before! Brother Lin Chen, should we go to this French restaurant? What do you think?”

“Whatever you like…”

Lu Yunfan called the restaurant to reserve a table. After that was settled, she told Lin Chen to go ahead and drive to the French restaurant.

When Lin Chen got out of the car, he opened the trunk and took out a bouquet of flowers. He then gave it to Lu Yunfan.

Lu Yunfan’s heart was thumping wildly when she saw the flowers.

She had always thought of Lin Chen as the kind of man who wouldn’t give girls flowers. After all, the Lin Chen she knew was such an unromantic person.

“Brother Lin Chen, did your secretary prepare these fresh flowers for you?” Lu Yunfan asked as she looked at Lin Chen with her large and watery eyes.
