Zhao Zhan let go of Yue Jiaojiao and turned her around with a hand on her shoulder. “Is the person next door here to cause trouble again?” He asked, straight to the point.
“I only found out today that Lin Yunxu is the one living next door,” Yue Jiaojiao told him what had happened during the day. “You’ll find out when you go next door.”
Zhao Zhan carefully listened to her instructions.
“Zhao Zhan, be careful. Someone touched the door of our storage room today. He must have gotten someone to steal the soybeans.”
Zhao Zhan was engulfed in anger. He didn’t expect this Lin guy to chase them all the way here.
He had thought that by tying Fang Tianliu to his side, he could prevent him from doing anything, but he didn’t expect that the other party was determined to get this recipe.
“Jiaojiao, next time you encounter something like this, don’t say anything. Just leave and wait for me to come back. I’m afraid you’ll be in danger.”
Jiaojiao was extraordinarily clever and cunning. However, no matter how powerful she was, in his heart, the apple of his eye would always be the one who needed to be cherished and protected.
“I’ll make dinner first. After we’re done eating, you can take a walk in the yard. I’ll heat up the bath water, and you can wash up and lie down. I’ll go next door. They’re the ones who need our help now, so let them wait.”
Yue Jiaojiao giggled as she looked at Zhao Zhan.
Perhaps it was because of her influence, the originally honest and rough man had now learned to use some tricks.
However, Yue Jiaojiao didn’t mind. In any case, she would always be the center of Zhao Zhan’s attention.
When Lin Yunxu heard the commotion next door, he waited in the courtyard patiently. There was news from Shang that he had never seen such a thing even in the western regions before.
In other words, even if he wanted the recipe, he couldn’t steal or snatch it. He didn’t know the raw materials or the method. All the conspiracies behind the scenes wouldn’t work. He could only communicate with the other party directly.
He couldn’t give up now.
What Zhao Zhan had done to him in Huai County had greatly damaged his reputation in Kelai Xiang, and his business had taken a dive.
If he wanted to save the situation, the only way was to cooperate with Zhao Zhan.
It was not until the moon was high in the sky and Lin Yunxu was so sleepy that his eyes were bloodshot that Shuqin, who was dozing off by the door, heard a knock.
“He’s here.”
“Hurry up and open the door.”
Lin Yunxu gulped down a cup of strong tea to lift his spirits.
“Lin,” Zhao Zhan entered the courtyard and stopped walking towards the room. He said coldly, “Can we talk in the courtyard? The room is too small, and I’m worried that I can’t fully display my abilities.”
Although Lin Yunxu was a little suspicious of what Zhao Zhan meant by displaying his abilities, he assumed it was because the other party had never been educated. Thus, he lifted his robe and strolled into the courtyard. The corners of his lips curled up into a smug smile. “Of course, I can. Since you said so-”
He was halfway through his words when he received a heavy punch!
Lin Yunxu stumbled backward and fell to the ground. Zhao Zhan quickly walked up to him, grabbed him by the collar, and kicked him to the side. “I’m sorry. I just came out of the mountains and thought you were some kind of animal, so I accidentally hit you. Now we can talk about the tofu recipe.”
Lin Yunxu clutched his chest and coughed heavily. He leaned against the wall and couldn’t move for a while.
“Zhao Zhan! You…”
as soon as he opened his mouth, his ribs ached from the punch, as if it was being torn apart.
Zhao Zhan didn’t move. His expression was hidden in the dark, “Aren’t you being too stingy? I’ve already said that my eyes were playing tricks on me. ”
He had bullied his lover!
If he didn’t beat him to death, that would be considered merciful!
