Chapter 772: A Different Room
Editor: Henyee Translations
But Gu Yundong recognized him.
Tao Xing, the second young master of the Tao family, the wastrel who had lost many shops to Liu Wei.
He was not the only one who came. There were two other people walking behind him. One was a young man, and the other was a middle-aged man.
The three of them entered the private room together, but Tao Xing’s expression was very ugly.
Gu Yundong paused. In the past, she would not have looked at Tao Xing. After all, the man had nothing to do with her. Although Tao Xing had suffered at her hands, the Tao family did not cause trouble for her.
However… when she thought of how Shao Qingyuan’s background was related to the Tao family, she couldn’t help but pay more attention to the Tao family.
“Big Sister?” The young lady in her arms looked at Gu Yundong, who was standing at the door and hesitating to enter. She tilted her head.
Gu Yundong came back to her senses and smiled at the young lady. Then, he pushed open the door of the private room and carried her in. He said to Gu Dajiang, “Father, I’ll go out for a while. You guys rest first.”
Gu Dajiang nodded and didn’t ask further. He knew that his daughter was busy.
Gu Yundong went out again and looked at the private room that Tao Xing had entered.
This was the Jinxiu Restaurant. Due to her relationship with the Liu family, she was very familiar with this restaurant.
Tao Xing’s private room…
She remembered that when Liu Wei brought her to the restaurant earlier, he had mentioned that this restaurant originally did not belong to the Liu family. It was bought by the Liu family from other merchants.
The original owner did not know how to do business. This restaurant kept incurring losses and could not be saved at all.
Later, when the Liu family took over, it was not ideal at first. Some people said that the Liu family would probably follow in their footsteps.
In the end, Old Master Liu secretly found a feng shui master to help him calculate. The master said that there was a problem with the feng shui. The big private room at the corner was leaking money. It was best to split it into two, but it could not be completely separated.
Hence, Old Master Liu divided that private room into two rooms. According to the feng shui master, the wooden planks separating the rooms were very thin.
Therefore, although these two private rooms looked like two, in fact… they could hear each other’s words clearly.
Other than the few people from the Liu family and the manager of the restaurant, no one else knew about this.
However, Old Master Liu was a strict businessman. The two private rooms had always been used as one private room. As long as one private room had a guest, the other private room would not receive guests.
As for why Liu Wei told her, it was because there was a time when she wanted to sit in that corner private room, but Liu Wei didn’t let her. He had a strange expression on his face. One moment, he said that there were guests in that private room, and the next moment, he said that there weren’t. He contradicted himself and gave himself away, and then she tricked him.
Coincidentally, Tao Xing entered the room today.
Gu Yundong smiled and walked to the door of the private room. She looked around and did not see the waiter and shopkeeper. He quietly pushed the door open and walked in. Then, he locked the door from the inside.
Then, she tiptoed to the wooden wall separating the private room and pressed her ear against it.
In the end, there was still a layer between them. The voice on the other end was a little blurry.
After a while, Tao Xing and the other two seemed to hear the waiter bringing the dishes over. Except for the waiter reporting the dishes, they didn’t say anything.
It was not until the waiter finished serving the dishes and left after saying, “Please enjoy your meal, sir.” When the door of the private room was closed, one of the voices could be heard.
“Second Young Master, don’t be too angry. There’s always a solution.”
The voice sounded a little low. It should be the middle-aged man speaking.
