Zheng Shaochen tried the taste again, this time eating particularly carefully. Although the spicy flavor hadn’t faded, he vaguely tasted some aroma.
Gu Nian looked at Zheng Shaochen, who was enjoying the food more than anyone else, and smiled triumphantly.
Little Hu, no matter how stubborn your mouth is, haven’t you been conquered by her hot pot in the end? If you’re so capable, don’t eat with such relish!
After finishing the meal and leaving, Zheng Shaochen didn’t open his mouth to say a single word.
Bai Yanluo watched his back, then turned to Nan Jin Yu and said, "Hey, this kid has become suddenly so quiet, could he be brewing something sinister in his heart?" The source of this content ɪs novel-fire.ɴet
Nan Jin Yu shook his head, "Knowing that Hundred Flavors Inn has my share, he doesn’t have that courage."
Zheng Family’s business isn’t just limited to Qingshan Town, it spans almost all of Yunyao. Of course, 20 years ago the Zheng Family wasn’t . Their rapid development is greatly related to them being the in-laws of the Prince Nan’an Mansion.
Nan Jin Yu is the Heir of King Nan’an and has the backing of his uncle, the emperor. Even if unexpected events happen, only Nan Jin Yu can inherit the Prince Mansion, or it will be destroyed.
Therefore, the Zheng Family is now eager to get Zheng Shaochen close to Nan Jin Yu and use this opportunity to build a good relationship, which is also planning for the Zheng Family’s future development.
Bai Yanluo shook his head, "I think, if you really don’t want that little girl to get into trouble, it would be best to plan ahead. The Qinglin Restaurant in Qingshan Town is a test given by the Zheng Family to your cousin. Under normal circumstances, the profit of a restaurant wouldn’t matter, but for Zheng Shaochen at this moment, it is crucial for his future role as the Zheng Family’s Sect Leader. He seems carefree, but he isn’t completely without a plan. If by chance he takes a crooked path, you would be the one caught in the middle."
"Do you think this heir needs to care about the Zheng Family?" Nan Jin Yu said with a disdainful laugh.
Everyone thinks he is close to the Zheng Family not only because they are his aunt’s family but also because of the financial support from the Zheng Family.
But don’t forget, he has the emperor backing him.
If he wants money, he just needs to do a few tricks, and he could take over the entire Zheng Family.
Nan Jin Yu’s words left Bai Yanluo stunned, "Is that girl so important to you?"
His words directly expressed that the wealth of the Zheng Family is just the icing on the cake for him, not a necessity in times of emergency. However, it also implies that the Zheng Family is not as important as Gu Nian.
"Important?" Nan Jin Yu muttered, then suddenly smiled, "Perhaps!"
At least before this, he had never thought about rejecting the Zheng Family’s goodwill; otherwise, he wouldn’t have allowed Zheng Shaochen to chatter in his ears repeatedly.
He also hoped that Zheng Shaochen would understand himself clearly and not do anything that Nan Jin Yu couldn’t tolerate.
Otherwise, he wouldn’t care whether Mrs. Zheng is his aunt, as he is a rebellious descendant who dares to defy even his own grandmother.
Late at night, Erhu sent off the last guest and closed the door. The people working here were all young men and women from the village; those who left early had already gone home, and those staying at the inn also went back to wash up and sleep.
Erhu brought a money box to the private room, where the whole family except Sanshui, who was studying, and Little Hu, who wasn’t there, were sitting around a table.
Lin Sanshui quickly got up to close and lock the door of the private room. When he returned, he saw that Erhu had already opened the money box.
