Rebirth: Solely Cherished by the Devoted Commander novel Chapter 419

Chapter 419: Chapter 445: Drifting Apart

Gu Junming laughed and said, "Alright, I won’t force you to do anything you don’t want to do. Do whatever you wish, I’ll support you. Don’t be afraid of offending anyone."

Sun Chan laughed and said, "I understand! Don’t worry, I won’t wrong myself."

In her past life, she endured too much and lived for appearances. This life, she is determined to live freely and never do anything she doesn’t want to do.

Gu Junming asked again, "How is your shop going?"

Sun Chan perked up immediately, "Well, it’s about to open. I’m busy with a lot of things, but despite the hustle and bustle, I feel fulfilled. Working with them helps me accumulate plenty of experience."

Sun Chan didn’t know any of the embroidery techniques those workers had.

Not only were they skilled at sewing, but some also knew special embroidery techniques which were quite unique. Sun Chan made an effort to learn from them and thought these embroideries could be used on clothes, like hems, cuffs, and corners. She told Gu Junming how she marked a little emblem on clothes after learning embroidery methods.

"It can serve as my brand’s trademark. It’s a really beautiful spider lily design." The blossoming flowers, with bright red petals, give a lively feeling.

After finishing it, she even showed it to Han Dong. Han Dong liked it very much and decided to add such flowers to the new store’s plaque as a distinctive emblem.

Gu Junming nodded, "Yeah, you have a great mind, the shape of these flowers is really nice, I think it’s quite beautiful too."

"Right?" Sun Chan laughed, "I think our country’s embroidery is truly exquisite, I definitely want to study it thoroughly when I have time. Handcrafted decorations can be used too. They might add that finishing touch on the clothes?"

"Indeed, very creative." Smelling the fragrance emanating from Sun Chan, Gu Junming felt somewhat restless.

"But I’m a bit worried, it would be bad if we lose money. Han Dong has invested quite a bit. If the business doesn’t succeed, wouldn’t I be done for?" She nervously pinched her fingers.

"Don’t worry. You’ve done your best on what you could; the rest is left to fate. Even if it fails, it won’t be a big deal. At worst, we put up a stall together and sell the clothes directly, how does that sound?"

Sun Chan couldn’t help but laugh, "You’re a cadre at the headquarters, don’t you feel embarrassed about setting up a stall?"

"What’s embarrassing? As long as it’s money earned rightly, it’s worthy of respect," said Gu Junming, while touching the buttons on her nightgown, kissing her red lips, "It’s late, let’s sleep." Having said that, he pressed down on her.

Sun Chan, both embarrassed and angry, slapped his back, "I’m still talking to you, what’s the rush?"

"I’m dying from urgency, let’s leave it for tomorrow, we have more important stuff to do now."

Sun Chan’s face flushed; the important stuff he was referring to was... this person really! But there wasn’t time to dwell on it; his kisses overwhelmed her, and they spent a sweet night together.

When she woke up, Gu Junming had already left. He exercises at six every day, so he gets up at five-thirty and leaves. Sun Chan originally wanted to make breakfast for Gu Junming, but she was too tired and didn’t manage to get up again.

After freshening up, she went to the kitchen, only to find egg fried rice on the table, made by Gu Junming. Next to it was a bowl of tomato soup. She felt a warmth in her heart and picked up the bowl to eat.

"I’m just curious about what you’re doing, is it an account book?" The woman tried her best to look at her paper, but Sun Chan had already closed the notebook, watching her calmly, "If you have some business, ma’am, just speak."

"It’s nothing really, just wanted to ask, who was the person picking you up yesterday? We saw that person and immediately thought they must be a big boss with lots of money!" She said with a laugh.

Sun Chan replied, "He’s my boss, had some business nearby, and took me along. He wasn’t taking me specifically. Don’t get the wrong idea."

"What’s there to explain? Nowadays, it’s normal to help each other in the new society. If someone says something like that, I’ll definitely help to explain," the woman said with a smile, but her gaze was unfriendly. After she spoke, many people looked, their focus tightly on the matter.

Sun Chan understood instantly, they’re suspecting my relationship with Han Dong, are they not? She raised her voice, "His name is Han Dong, he’s my husband’s brother, they grew up together. Not real siblings, but closer than. We treat each other like family."

The woman was initially taken aback, then laughed, "I see? So, he’s a relative of your husband."

"Yes, Han Dong’s father is an officer in the army, his mother is a doctor. They’re very respectable. If you don’t believe it, feel free to check. They’re noble folk, don’t throw mud and smear their name."

Everyone laughed awkwardly and insisted they wouldn’t doubt her.

"We are all army wives with dignity, why would we do such things?"

Another woman from behind chimed in, "Exactly, Sun Chan is so beautiful, if she were only after money, she wouldn’t have married Gu Junming. With her looks, couldn’t she marry some wealthy magnate?"
