Chapter 324 A bright future
Unexpectedly, Shi Long smiled and said, "Sister Xiaolin, I was entrusted by your brother and sister-in-law to be your bodyguard. If I don't take good care of you here, they will probably blame me when they go back."

Seeing that Shi Long had said so much, Ling Zhuolin didn't want to say anything more. Since the other party didn't mean that, that was the best.

Soon after, things took a turn for the better. The two were having breakfast that day, and Shi Long was still looking at the embroidery in his hand: "You said that my sister-in-law has such good craftsmanship, how come no one can recognize the pearls?"

"It's been a long time since I've seen embroidery of this quality. Even if it's given as a gift, it looks extremely valuable. And this piece of cloth is also made of the finest silk. It would be great if I could meet the artist who created this embroidery."

The old man at the side snatched the handkerchief from Shi Long's hand, and a gleam of light flashed in his cloudy old eyes.

Shi Long and Ling Zhuolin looked at each other: they didn't expect that there would be a ray of hope. They had originally planned to buy tickets and go back if they couldn't find a buyer today, but they didn't expect to meet a mentor.

Shi Long blinked his eyes and said, "May I ask what your name is, old gentleman?"

"My last name is Wu Qinglin. Where did you get this embroidery? Can I meet the artist who created it?" Wu Qinglin held the handkerchief in his hand, stroking it carefully, and simply couldn't let it go.

"It's not impossible to meet our boss, but I don't know if Mr. Wu just likes it, or..."

Shi Long saw that Wu Qinglin was dressed very simply, wearing an old man's shirt, shorts and slippers, and holding a palm-leaf fan, but he looked energetic.

This made Shi Long feel a little suspicious. It is said that one cannot judge a person by his appearance, and there are indeed only a few people who can understand this embroidery.

Wu Qinglin felt a little regretful when he saw that the author of the embroidery was not among the two people.

"I own a small factory that exports some handicrafts. If this embroidery can be exported abroad, it will surely be sought after by many people. I see you sighing and groaning, I'm afraid you haven't found a good buyer yet, right?"

Shi Long and Ling Zhuolin were both delighted. Isn't this just handing over a pillow when you are sleepy? But they suppressed their excitement for the time being: "Mr. Wu, can we go to your factory to take a look?"

"Of course!" Wu Qinglin responded generously, and then waved to a black car outside the door.

The two were shocked and were taken on a tour of the factory by Wu Qinglin.

When I returned to Wanlong Village, I hadn't even come to my senses yet.

"The small handicraft factory that Mr. Wu mentioned turned out to be a large factory covering an area of ​​more than 4,000 acres! Moreover, every operator in the workshop is wearing dust-proof clothing, and is even equipped with high-precision machines. It is simply incomparable to human power."

"Do you know the name of that factory? Qinglin Small Commodity City, yes, a city! There are so many exquisite handicrafts in it that we were dazzled."

"These are some of the little gadgets we brought back."

As they spoke, Shi Long and Ling Zhuolin tacitly took out the small toys from the bag.

Car models, boards for drawing and writing, wooden spinning tops... Ling Xiaolei couldn't put down any of them. "Sister-in-law, Mr. Wu will bring people to conduct an on-site inspection. If the inspection is successful, they will discuss cooperation with us. However, they want us to guarantee that the quality is the same as the embroidery we brought."

Li Luo had never expected that the two of them would be so successful and even find a small commodity city! However, his embroidery was not comparable to these mass-produced tools.

However, what Ling Zhuolin and the others brought back did give Li Luo a new idea. Since they were going to cooperate, Li Luo could ask Ling Zhuolin and the others to bring back the handicrafts that were not available here and sell them in Rongcheng.

When Li Luo told Shi Long about this idea, Shi Long patted his head and said, "Yes! Why didn't I think of this idea at the time?"

Ling Zhuoqun smiled and said, "I see that you just want to complete the task first. As long as the task is completed, nothing else matters."

"Brother, you can't say that about Brother Shi Long. You don't know how much Brother Shi Long has suffered in the past half month. He also helped me drive away a lot of hooligans!"

Ling Zhuoqun's gaze began to wander between Ling Zhuolin and Shi Long, because when Ling Zhuolin said this, Ling Zhuoqun keenly noticed that something was wrong, because before, Ling Zhuolin seemed to have said the same thing, but to a different person.

Shi Long naturally knew what Ling Zhuoqun meant by this look. He smiled brightly at Ling Zhuolin's defense of him, "As a brother, it is my duty to take care of my brother's sister."

Ling Zhuolin's cheeks turned red all of a sudden, and she quickly lowered her head, looking like a little woman.

Now, even Li Luo noticed something was wrong. He had originally thought that Ling Zhuolin could go outside to relax, but he didn't expect that sparks would fly between the two of them so quickly?
Although Ling Zhuoqun knew Shi Long's character, Ling Zhuolin was his sister after all, and she had just divorced. She was very vulnerable at this time. He was afraid that the time they spent together was too short and it would not end well.

However, Shi Long did not have so many concerns: "Brother, to be honest, I do have feelings for my sister, but it's not a bad idea. I just want to protect my sister. Every time I see my sister sad, I feel bad."

"You can hit me or scold me if you want, but I won't give up. After all, this old tree of mine hasn't bloomed in 30 years. If I can't catch it this time, I don't know when I will be able to bloom again."

Ling Zhuolin obviously did not realize that Shi Long was actually playing a straight game for Ling Zhuoqun, and during the nearly one month of getting along, Ling Zhuolin was obviously treated like a little princess.

Before, Ling Zhuolin could convince herself that Shi Long doted on her like a younger sister, but later, Shi Long would take time out to buy her a beautiful bouquet of flowers, take her shopping, and often buy her what she liked to eat...

These were things Ling Zhuolin had never experienced before.

"Xiao Lin, are you willing to give me a chance?" Seeing that Ling Zhuoqun had not expressed his opinion, Shi Long turned around and asked Ling Zhuolin what she thought first.

Ling Zhuolin couldn't help but burst out laughing: "How can someone's confession sound like a marriage proposal?"

Shi Long scratched his head. He just wanted to express his love for Ling Zhuolin and really hadn't thought about it that much.

"Then you..." Shi Long looked at Ling Zhuolin with burning eyes, expecting Ling Zhuolin's answer.

"Xiao Lin, Shi Long came to confess his love without a bouquet of flowers, so we can't let her count it." Li Luo said jokingly.
