151 No Reason to be Dissatisfied

When he saw the seal on the contract, Shen Yao had a bad feeling.

“I do know a Young Master Qin. I only know that he’s the young master of the Octagonal Guests. Could it be that this Hongxing Restaurant is also a property of the Qin family?”

Ji Zhao remembered that the richest family in Dingyuan County seemed to be the Qin family?

Second Manager You nodded with a hearty smile. “I didn’t expect you to know our young master, Ah Tao. The young master of our Hongxing Restaurant is indeed from the Qin family.”

Ji Zhao subconsciously looked at Shen Yao and could not help but sigh in her heart.

This world was really small!

“But I heard that the owner of Hongxing Restaurant seems to have the surname Yu?” Shen Yao was also very confused. Wasn’t this too much of a coincidence?

“Mm.” The smile on Second Manager You’s face gradually disappeared, replaced by a strong sense of sadness.

A moment later, Second Manager You faced Ah Tao and asked with a smile, “Ah Tao, what do you think of this lease?”

“Second Brother You, I won’t hide it from you. Actually, we asked Big Brother to find out if there are any suitable shops in the county. However, every inch of land in Dingyuan County is expensive. Even on the furthest East Street, the rent for the shops is very expensive.” Ji Zhao smiled sincerely. “To be fair, the rent you offer is really too good!”

“I guess I have no reason to be dissatisfied.”

“Hahaha.” Hearing this, Second Manager You felt extremely satisfied.

Ji Zhao glanced at Shen Yao again. Seeing him nod, her smile became even brighter.

After signing the contract, Ji Zhao thought for a moment and looked at Second Manager You. She invited him sincerely, “Second Brother You, I’m really grateful for your care during this period of time. Coincidentally, I received some reward money from the Ma Residence yesterday. I want to treat you to a meal. I wonder if you’re willing to do me the honor?”

Second Manager You gently rubbed his chin and asked with a serious expression, “You’re cooking personally?”

“Naturally.”

“Then why wouldn’t I go?” Second Manager You laughed again.

“Then it’s settled? There’s no time like the present. Why don’t we do it today?” Ji Zhao said with a smile. “Shen Yao, let’s go to the market later to buy more vegetables?”

“Oh right, I remember now!” Second Manager You snapped his fingers and said excitedly, “Today, the manor sent a lot of big crabs to the kitchen. Ah Tao, why don’t you make a few crab dishes?”

“Okay!”

“Then it’s settled!” Second Manager You happily hummed a tune as he left their room.

Ji Zhao carefully put away the lease. Then, she propped her chin on her hands and looked at Shen Yao, who was silent. She held back her laughter and did not say anything.

“Mm?”

“Shen Yao, what were you thinking when you saw the signature on the lease just now?” Ji Zhao deliberately winked at him and asked with a smile.

“Nothing.”

“Really?”

Shen Yao pinched her nose helplessly and explained softly, “However, I’m indeed a little surprised because I’ve heard that the owner of Hongxing Restaurant’s surname is Yu. I just didn’t expect that it would change owners now. I’m a little surprised.”

“Now that you mention it, I also feel that something is wrong.” Ji Zhao frowned slightly and said softly, “When Second Brother You mentioned the previous owner of the restaurant just now, he seemed to be very sad?”

“Yes.” Shen Yao gently held her hand and smiled gently. “But we don’t have to pay attention to this. You’ve already rented a shop. Have you thought of how to decorate it?”

“To be honest, I haven’t thought of that step yet.” Ji Zhao shrugged helplessly. “And I’m thinking about something else now.”

“What is it?”

“I wonder if I should steam or braise the crabs?”

Shen Yao was amused by her innocent look.
