Chapter 398 Dead Body Found on the Lake
The next day, I sat in a window seat on the second floor of Zuixian Tower.
There were several breakfast dishes on the table, and Di Ran and Du Mingying sat face to face.
Ji Yunxie sat obediently beside Di Ran, holding a bowl of fish porridge in his hand and drinking it in small sips.
"cough~"
Du Mingying coughed lightly and said, "Miss Di, my mother has already agreed to what you mentioned yesterday."
After she returned yesterday, she told her mother about the cooperation with Linglongfang. Her mother was very surprised after hearing it.
Her complexion suddenly felt much better, and when she heard that Miss Di was her savior, she was even more grateful.
She then mentioned the matter of reopening the winemaking business, and Mr. Du felt a little embarrassed.
On one side is a century-old foundation, on the other side is the ancestral order that cannot be disobeyed, both are important.
But thinking about how the Du family has been marginalized and suppressed in recent years, and she is also old, if the Du family does not have a strong backer, she is afraid that it will not last long.
Tianxia Villa is undoubtedly a sturdy golden thigh. If we don’t hold on to it quickly, would we be stupid enough to let it run away?
After careful consideration, Mr. Du finally agreed.
That’s why there was a scene today where Du Mingying went to find Shang Diran.
Du Mingying's eyes narrowed slightly: "I wonder what Miss Di plans to ask the Du family to do?"
I only heard Di Ran casually say: "I heard that the Du family's 'Rouge Drunk' is famous all over the world, but I have never seen it. I have been drooling over it for a long time and I really want to try it."
Du Mingying was slightly stunned, and was surprised: "That's it?"
She thought Miss Di was after the Du family's wine-making recipe. After all, apart from the recipe, there was nothing else good in the Du family that could be valued.
Di Ran could more or less see what Du Mingying was thinking, but she really had no other purpose. She just thought that the Du family was pretty good, and she liked fine wine and couldn't bear to see it disappear, so she wanted to help.
Di Ran didn't explain much, and smiled faintly: "Of course, if your Du family is willing, you can also sell the wine to me. You can contact my other maid Mo Yan for the details."
"As a partner, your Du family is naturally protected by my Tianxia Villa. I believe you will not be foolish enough to refuse such a favorable deal."
Indeed, it would be foolish to refuse.
Du Mingying didn't know why Miss Di would help the Du family so easily. Maybe there was another purpose behind it, or maybe it was just pleasing to the eye as she said. In any case, the situation of the Du family was already very bad.
No matter what this person's purpose is, as long as she can help her Du family when they are in trouble, she is the great benefactor of her Du family!
Du Mingying looked at Di Ran with a complicated expression, and clasped his fists to express his gratitude: "Mingying has no way to repay Miss Di's great kindness. From now on, my life belongs to Miss Di."
Ji Yunxie looked up in surprise, and a slender white hand rubbed his head.
Ji Yunxie glanced sideways, Di Ran raised his eyebrows slightly, glanced at Du Mingying, and said lightly.
"Ms. Du, you are too serious."
Du Mingying wanted to say something else: "I..."
As soon as he opened his mouth, he heard a terrified scream from downstairs.
"what!--"
"Someone's dead!——"
Du Mingying was stunned: "What's going on?"
The front of Zuixianlou is the most prosperous street in Anyang City, and the back is Qingfeng Lake. From the second floor or even the third floor, you can see most of Qingfeng Lake from a distance.
Looking down from the second-floor window was a water lane, and the timid young men in the crowd were frightened out of their wits.
A group of people gathered by the willow-lined lake, talking and pointing.
"He looks like a handsome young man~"
"Tsk tsk, how could he die at such a young age? How pitiful."
"That's right, what's so depressing about it? Why would he jump into the lake and die?"
……
The people watching were talking a lot.
