Chapter 610 – It Was As If She Had Found Herself

One year later, in Wuyuan, China.

By 4 pm, the wet street was already full of pedestrians. Some of them held umbrellas, while others walked in the rain.

The sound of drums and the voices of the sellers were endless, accompanied by beautiful music.

Along this street, there were rows of shops crowded with customers and inside a hand-knitting shop, a tall and skinny figure was busy lurking in the middle of the customers, answering the customers' questions about the price of the hat or the scarf.

"Boss, how much is this shawl?"

"78 yuan."

"Boss, is there another color for this hat?"

"Yes, there's still the blue one. Wait a minute, I'll bring it to you soon ~"

The tall and skinny figure hurried into the store. She took off the hat that was placed inside the glass cabinet and went out to continue entertaining the customers.

The rain outside was getting heavier and heavier. After more than an hour of busyness, there were finally fewer pedestrians on the street. The hand-knitting shop was no longer as busy as it used to be. There were only two or three customers who were in the middle of trying on their hats and scarves.

The tall and skinny figure took the shawls that had just been messed up by the customers and hung them back on the wall one by one.

The sound of people entering the store came from behind her. The figure immediately turned around with a faint smile, "Welcome."

When she saw who the person was, the smile on her face froze for a moment before turning gentle. "Why are you here?"

Wei Shanyuan smiled and set aside the umbrella. He walked into the store and looked around. After a while, those customers who were just strolling around left and sought shelter from the rain.

"Our hospital rarely does group travel. We chose to travel to Wuyuan this time. I heard from him that you opened a shop here and decided to look around. It seems that your business is running smoothly." Wei Shanyuan walked over with a smile.

Xian Guiying knew that "him" Wei Shanyuan referred to was Wei Zhengsheng. She smiled lightly, went to the store, and brought out a plastic chair. "My shop is too small and I usually don't take out the chair, or else there won't be any place for customers to walk around. Please take a seat."

Wei Shanyuan didn't refuse. As he sat down, he glanced at the woven tools placed in front of the shop and couldn't help laughing, "You're really self-reliant, you really learned this stuff."

"Of course, if I don't make goods by hand and instead buy them, where will I get a big profit? Although this is just a small business and can't be compared to a company like Xian, but in order to make money, I definitely must make as much profit as possible. Otherwise, why would I still need to open a shop?" Xian Guiying smiled and poured some hot water into a disposable cup. She walked over and handed it to him. "Drink it. The food and drink in this street are not necessarily clean. If you are thirsty, come and drink water here."

Wei Shanyuan took the cup and placed it on the small wooden table next to him. He didn't drink it and just watched Xian Guiying skillfully fold the scarf into a pretty shape and hang it onto the wall.

"At the time, you said that you wanted to find a small town in the south and live a quiet life. You said you want to find the life that you want." Wei Shanyuan stood up and walked closer. He looked around the shop that was full of knitwear items with all sorts of colors and sighed with emotion, "Guiying, is this the life that you want?"

Xian Guiying's hand stopped for a moment. After hanging the last shawl, she turned around and looked at him.

"What's wrong? You don't think it's good for me to do this?" She asked, then smiled.

"Actually, I always wanted to visit the place called Wuyuan. At first, I felt this place was like a paradise. A small town, with friendly people, small rivers but sometimes, things are different from what we have heard or imagined. Only after arriving here, I realized that this paradise had been commercialized. Visitors, cold hawkers, as well as unclean water and food. Even though the outside world isn't tranquil enough, as long as my heart feels that I am in the right place, it will suffice. In this kind of quaint little town, there's no such thing as deceitful. I think it's a pretty good place for me." Xian Guiying said as she looked outside. "If you don't come, I'll definitely forget. Now that I think about it, it looks like a year has passed."

Xian Guiying had never enjoyed a peaceful life. This, right now, was the peaceful life she had missed since she was a teenager. Back then, she always being compared with Cui Luixian.

The pressure from her grandfather and father finally made her leave in frustration and chose to go to America.

A woman who didn't like silence gradually learned to stand on her own two feet and become a strong woman. Although her income wasn't like the one where she worked in Xian Enterprise, still, she was grateful and satisfied with this kind of life.

And a year ago, she finally woke up. By the time she finally decided to put it all away, it was as if she had found herself.

Yes, she had found a solid ground.

Xian Guiying smiled at Wei Shanyuan, who was looking at her. "Actually, if I don't hold this position for years, Wei Zhengsheng would already be the Xian Enterprise's new CEO long ago. It also counts as giving up my position, and besides, doesn't my brother trust him a lot? Although I don't really care about these things right now, but sometimes when Wei Zhengsheng calls, I can feel that Xian Enterprise is in good hands."

Whether she was there or not, it really won't affect anyone else's life.

Wei Shanyuan smiled and wanted to say something when the umbrella sitting casually in the doorway was suddenly blown away by a gentle breeze and was thrown in front of the shop.

At this moment, a curse could be heard from the next door. "Aiya! Whose umbrella is this!? It even made our shop's dress wet!

Following that curse, a slightly plump, middle-aged woman with a darkened face hurriedly walked over with an umbrella in her hand. She had an expression as if she was about to settle accounts with someone, and when she looked at Xian Guiying, her face had a look of disdain.

When she saw the man beside her, she immediately curled her lips. "I say, Miss Xian, you don't like our family so much, huh? Hadn't our family recently started selling some shawls as well? If you think we stole your business, then you can say it. We are in the same business and also neighbors. Do you know how much it costs for me to buy that dress and now you dirty it? I can sell it for over three hundred yuan, but now that your store's umbrella has made it wet and dirty, how are you going to compensate for it?"
