When Love Turns the Tables: The Mysterious Husband's Chase-Chapter 669: Mu Ke, Do You Like Me? (Part 9)

Xu Qingru ultimately comes from a scholarly family, possessing a unique intellectual beauty of women. She is generous, strong, proud, and seldom speaks such desolate words.

Sheng Jiayu felt a pang in her heart listening to this, as Xu Qingru smiled again: "Alright, don’t worry, I’m fine. Jiayu, it’s you, Doctor Mu seems very attentive to you, I can see it, he is a nice guy, you just really..."

"Mom!"

Sheng Jiayu interrupted her mother, then realized her tone seemed a bit harsh, and slightly lowered her eyes: "Mom, in these matters, let’s leave it to fate, okay?"

"I’m not trying to pressure you, Jiayu, I just hope for your happiness. Men on this earth aren’t limited to just Xin Ke, and it’s not only those who love intensely that can spend a lifetime together, do you understand?" 𝕗𝐫𝚎𝗲𝘄𝐞𝕓𝐧𝕠𝘃𝕖𝐥.𝐜𝚘𝚖

Sheng Jiayu nodded, once she revolved around Xin Ke, almost neglecting everyone around her, and now she feels very guilty, especially towards her mother, extremely guilty. She doesn’t want to make her mother disappointed or unhappy anymore.

She pressed her lips and remained silent for two seconds before speaking: "Mom, I promise you, I will try."

Xu Qingru smiled and patted her daughter’s hand: "That’s good, alright, let’s talk about something else, what are you planning to do now?"

The wealth left by the Xu Family and Sheng Jiayu’s shares in Shengshi are enough for her to be carefree for life, but Xu Qingru, being ultimately a cultured person, doesn’t feel it’s a good idea for Sheng Jiayu to stay at home doing nothing at such a young age.

Before, she helped Xin Ke manage the company, but now that they’ve divorced, Sheng Jiayu naturally left too. She went out and had fun for a long time, and after coming back, hasn’t done anything, Xu Qingru has never inquired, but now she couldn’t help asking.

Sheng Jiayu seemed to show some interest in this topic, and her face brightened a bit: "Mom, I want to open a book café."

"Book café?"

"Yes, it’s a combination of a bookstore and a café. Currently, this market is actually quite saturated, but I’ve researched it, and there hasn’t been a single one that’s done meticulously, upmarket. I want to give it a try."

Xu Qingru seemed to understand Sheng Jiayu’s intentions, and she laughed, how could she not know her own daughter.

Actually, Sheng Jiayu seems to be a white-collar elite, a career woman, but in reality, she is true to her nature. She likes to read, likes fiddling with small things, and actually, she doesn’t like the business world at all, she has only come this far for that man.

Now seeing her return to her true self, Xu Qingru felt gratified: "Good, just do as you think. Mom supports you."

"Mm, thank you, mom."

Sheng Jiayu isn’t thinking about making money or not, she’s not short on money, she just wants to do what she loves.

After staying at Xu Family’s Old Mansion for half a month, Sheng Jiayu returned to her apartment. During this half month, she had already asked someone to start looking for a premises but hadn’t found anything satisfactory.

Meanwhile, Mu Ke visited the mansion every few days to check on Xu Qingru’s health, and sometimes had meals and chats with them. Xu Qingru is obviously very satisfied with Mu Ke, making Sheng Jiayu unable to say anything, so she just let him be.

Sheng Jiayu hadn’t told anyone about wanting to open a book café, even Sheng Jianan and Tang Yanqi, who just returned from their honeymoon, didn’t know.

It wasn’t until her premises were secured and started undergoing design and renovation that she announced it to everyone.

Her mother’s health is improving, and the things she wants to do are going smoothly; everything is great.
