Shadow would go to Chun Feng Restaurant every now and then to see Lin Xiao. Now that Lin Xiao was so busy that his feet barely touched the ground, he couldn't see him during the day. When he finally got to see Lin Xiao at night, Lin Xiao looked like he had been ravaged. No matter how much of a beast he was, he couldn't bring himself to lay his hands on Lin Xiao.
Lin Xiao was already so tired that he was about to die. If he still laid his hands on him, was he still human?
Shadow looked at Lin Xiao who had just finished washing up after a busy day and fell asleep on the bed. His heart ached for him.
His Lin Xiao was supposed to be the apple of his eye, but at this moment, he was so tired that he didn't even have the strength to lift his hand. What made him even angrier was that he wasn't the one who caused Lin Xiao to be so tired. …
An Ying felt that he should speed up the process of marrying Lin Xiao.
Early the next morning, Shadow asked someone to look for Lin Guangye and tell him that he wanted to marry Lin Xiao.
Lin Guangye had always valued Shadow's wealth. Now that Shadow was willing to marry Lin Xiao, he was naturally moved. Without thinking, he nodded and agreed to the marriage between Shadow and Lin Xiao.
After Lin Guangye agreed, Shadow naturally expressed his concern for Lin Xiao and hoped that Lin Guangye could find someone to replace Lin Xiao.
Although Lin Guangye couldn't bear to part with the restaurant business, he still wanted to please Shadow. After a moment of hesitation, he nodded and agreed.
Lin Xiao didn't need to cook anymore, so she could spend more time with Shadow. The two of them talked about love every day and it was very uncomfortable.
As for the intimate relationship between Lin Xiao and Shadow, Lin Guangye was very happy to see it.
Although doing business was profitable, it was extremely tiring. As long as Lin Xiao could firmly hold onto Shadow, he would have an endless amount of money to spend for the rest of his life.
Lin Guangye didn't hesitate at all when he had to make a choice between spending money painstakingly and having an innumerable amount of money lying around.
Shadow was really good to Lin Xiao. Every day, he would come and give Lin Xiao gifts in different ways. He even gave Lin Guangye some gifts.
Shadow's master had a high status and arranged a job for him in the imperial court.
After Lin Guangye unintentionally learned about Shadow's position in the court, he began to have some other ideas.
After the rumor that Lin Guangye had spread was dispelled because of Jiujiu's mutton stew, it meant that he no longer had the chance to snatch the golden kitchen knife and recipe from Jiujiu.
However, in terms of strength, he couldn't snatch the kitchen knife and the recipe, but what if he used his power?
No matter how good Jiujiu's culinary skills were, she was just an ordinary person. Compared to real power, she was like a fish on the chopping block, unable to fight back.
Lin Guangye had always firmly believed that the reason why Jiujiu's culinary skills were so good was entirely due to the addition of the recipe. Without the recipe, Jiujiu's culinary skills were just so-so.
If he could get the recipe, then wouldn't he be able to be like Jiujiu? He wouldn't need to wake up early and work late. He would only need to cook five tables of food every day to earn countless silvers.
When he thought of this kind of life, Lin Guangye revealed a longing smile.
If it was an ordinary person, it would be impossible for them to say such things to their own daughter's future husband.
After all, it would inevitably leave a bad impression on the other party.
But Lin Guangye was stupid, bad, and greedy. After he saw how well An Ying treated Lin Xiao, he firmly believed that An Ying liked Lin Xiao to the core. Love the house, love the crow that crowns it. No matter what excessive request he made, An Ying would agree.
In fact, Shadow really liked Lin Xiao, but he wasn't so stupid that he would agree to everything.
Moreover, after hearing Lin Guangye's statement, Shadow felt that Lin Xiao was very pitiful and even began to think of marrying Lin Xiao as soon as possible.
However.
No matter how stupid and evil Lin Guangye was, he was still Lin Xiao's father. Although Shadow didn't like Lin Guangye from the bottom of his heart, he still had to give some face to Lin Xiao. So, towards Lin Guangye's request, he nodded and agreed.
However, Shadow knew that with his power, he wouldn't be able to suppress Jiujiu. The method he chose was to steal.
Shadow's relationship with Lin Xiao was very good now. Naturally, he told Jiujiu that he was going to steal the recipe from Jiujiu.
When she heard that Shadow was going to steal the recipe, Lin Xiao's heart was filled with mixed feelings. In an instant, she thought of all the things that happened during this period and couldn't help but tell Shadow about the situation between her family and Jiujiu's family.
Of course, when Lin Xiao described it, she naturally saw it from her own point of view. So, in her eyes, her family naturally stood on the side of justice, while Jiujiu was the one who was insatiably greedy and didn't know how to let go.
Shadow's heart already ached for Lin Xiao. When he heard how pitiful Lin Xiao was, he felt that Jiujiu was even more hateful and wanted to kill her.
At this time, Jiujiu and Wang Cuilian had eaten their fill. As they ate the snacks that Gao Hei had bought and the preserved fruits that the Little Prince had sent over, the two of them talked about sunbathing as they ate.
As the warm sun basked on their bodies, it was so warm that they couldn't help but want to doze off.
Jiujiu was drowsy from the sun. As she yawned, she sighed with emotion. No wonder those old people liked sunbathing. It was just too comfortable.
In the future, when she really got together with her man and they had nothing to do, she would drag him to sunbathe. Because it was just too damn comfortable.
After sunbathing, Jiujiu and Wang Cuilian made do with dinner. After that, they went back to their rooms and got ready to sleep.
Wang Cuilian had been frightened by what happened to the emperor and her mental state hadn't been very good for the past two days. Not long after she went back to her room, she lay down and fell into a deep sleep.
As for Jiujiu, she was already very energetic. When she went back to her room, she brought out her three little pets to play with them.
Steamed Bun, Little White, and Little Cutie hadn't seen Jiujiu in a long time. They bounced around and rubbed against Jiujiu's body. It was indescribably cute.
Just as Jiujiu was happily playing with her three little pets, she suddenly heard a sound coming from the courtyard. When she saw a sharp knife sticking through the crack in the door, Little White quickly brought Jiujiu to hide in the space.
The sharp knife emitted a cold light under the candlelight. She could only hear the creaking sound of the knife slowly opening the door.
With a final clang, the door was completely opened. Then, with a creak, Jiujiu saw An Ying in a black night suit walking in.
When An Ying walked into the room, his first reaction was to walk to the bed. After all, when he came in, he heard soft laughter coming from the room.
Moreover, when he thought about how Lin Xiao had suffered because of Jiujiu, An Ying even wanted to kill Jiujiu.
