Chapter 424: Jealous and Angry

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

Yu Niaoniao was a little hungry. When she saw a small restaurant selling mutton steamed buns in front, she suggested.

“It’s a long story. Why don’t we sit down and talk while we eat?”

Wei Liao agreed. “Sure.”

The two of them walked to the door of the small restaurant and realized that it was pitifully small. There were only two sets of tables and chairs in the shop, and they were already filled with people.

Some diners had nowhere to sit, so they could only squat on the steps at the door with bowls and chopsticks to eat.

The scene looked chaotic. It did not match Yu Niaoniao and Wei Liao’s identities at all. Wei Liao thought that Yu Niaoniao would leave. However, Yu Niaoniao took a deep breath and praised, “It smells so good!” It smelled so good. It must taste good!

Not only did Yu Niaoniao not want to leave, but she was also a little impatient.

She asked the lady boss, “Can you get more seats here?”

The lady boss immediately brought out two small stools from the house and placed them on the steps by the door.

“Please take a seat. What do you want to eat?”

Yu Niaoniao sat down on a small stool. “Two bowls of mutton steamed buns first, plus a large chicken plate and cold fungus. And two servings of cow’s milk cheese.”

“Alright, please wait a moment.”

The lady boss noted down the names of the dishes and left in a hurry.

Wei Liao asked, “Aren’t you going to ask me what I want to eat before you order?”

Yu Niaoniao was filled with confidence. “I’ve already seen it just now. Their most famous dishes here are mutton steamed buns and the large chicken plate.

The taste definitely won’t be bad!”

“But what if I don’t like mutton and chicken?”

Yu Niaoniao said, “Then don’t eat it. I won’t force you to eat it.”

Wei Liao seemed determined to argue with her to the end and continued to ask.

“Can you finish all these dishes alone?”

Yu Niaoniao said matter-of-factly, “If I can’t finish it, I can take it home.” Wei Liao choked.

Although this shop was small, the dishes were served quite quickly.

Soon, the lady boss brought over two large bowls of hot mutton soup. The white flatbread was placed in a small bamboo basket and placed in front of Yu Niaoniao and Wei Liao.

Because the two of them had ordered more food, the lady boss had specially set up a small table for them.

Yu Niaoniao tore the flatbread into small pieces and soaked it in the mutton soup.

After absorbing the soup, the flatbread became very soft and smooth. It even had the rich fragrance of mutton soup.

She ate with relish, and her small face was full of enjoyment.

Wei Liao originally did not want to eat such unknown food, as he was afraid that it would not be clean. However, when he saw Yu Niaoniao eating so happily, he could not help but eat.

Needless to say, the mutton soup here was indeed very strong, and the flatbread was also very chewy.

It tasted no worse than the dishes made by famous chefs.

The two of them were wearing expensive clothes. Be it their appearance or bearing, they were very different from the surrounding commoners. From afar, the two of them looked out of place.

However, they did not have such self-awareness. They only focused on eating and ignored the gazes of others.

After eating until she was about 80% full, Yu Niaoniao slowed down and began to talk about serious matters.

“You just said that you’re willing to lend me money. This means that you should have a lot of spare money on hand. That money is useless in your hands. Why don’t you take it out to do business? ”

“If you used your money to make money, you could get more money. Of course, you’re busy and don’t have time to manage your business.”

“It just so happened that our Qirui Opera Troupe is planning to come up with a new show recently. It was guaranteed to be popular.”

“We are still in the beginning and a little short on money. You can invest the spare money you don’t need for the time being to help us rehearse.”

“When we earn money in the future, we’ll give you a dividend according to the ratio of your investment. That way, you won’t have to worry about business and can earn a lot. Isn’t that wonderful?”

Wei Liao looked at her with a faint smile. “To put it bluntly, you want to gain something for nothing.”

Yu Niaoniao defended herself righteously.

“How can you say that? Give us the money and we’ll help you earn money. It’s called mutual benefit. It’s a win-win situation!”

Wei Liao said slowly, “I’m not the silly father and daughter of the Liu family. Your bluff doesn’t work on me. It’s not impossible for me to pay for your opera, but you have to show your true abilities. It’s impossible to get money from me with just a few big words.”

Yu Niaoniao cursed inwardly. This fellow was really sneaky. He wouldn’t let go until he saw something tangible!

Her plan to gain something from nothing was a failure.

She had no choice but to take out the backup plan.

“Alright, when I get back, I’ll write a plan and write out the selling points and the specific implementation plan for our drama for you to see. If you think it’s okay, consider investing in us. Otherwise, forget it.”

Wei Liao looked interested again.

“Then I’ll wait and see.”

The lady boss brought the freshly made cow’s milk cheese to the two of them.

Yu Niaoniao eagerly picked up the bowl and took a sip. Before she could taste it, she heard the diners beside her mention Duke Lang.

She immediately pricked up her ears to listen.

“Have you heard? Last night, Duke Lang rushed into Mistwater Alley with a group of Eagle Guards. In the end, he even snatched someone out.” “Someone who can catch Duke Lang’s eye must be a peerless beauty, right?”

“What beauty? Duke Lang snatched a handsome man!”

The diners were stunned.

Someone blurted out.

“Duke Lang actually swings that way?!”

Yu Niaoniao almost spat out the cheese in her mouth.

What was going on?

A straight man like Xiao Juan was actually called a homosexual.

This was too ridiculous!

Wei Liao, on the other hand, smiled especially happily. He was gloating as usual.

The diners continued to gossip.

“Look at how ignorant you are. What’s there to be surprised about? Duke Lang only married at his age. Who would believe that he doesn’t have any special hobbies in that area?!”

“If that’s the case, what about the Princess Consort of Lang County? If she finds out that her husband likes men, won’t she be angered to death?”

“Perhaps the Princess Consort of Lang County already knows. Otherwise, why would she have a gigolo outside?” Everyone was shocked again.

There was too much gossip today.

Yu Niaoniao felt terrible.

When did she have a gigolo outside?

The diner, however, spoke eloquently, “Don’t doubt me. The Princess Consort of Lang County likes an actor from the Heavenly Oriole Garden. I think his name is Ye Yin.”

“She likes that actor very much. Recently, she had been running to the

Heavenly Oriole Garden every day. And every time she goes, she brings bags. Those are gifts for Ye Yin.”

The other man echoed, “That’s right, that’s right! I know someone in the

Heavenly Oriole Garden and he told me about this. The day before yesterday, Ye Yin was even locked up by the Eagle Guards in the Justice Department.”

“Initially, we were all puzzled. We did not understand what a small actor like Ye

Yin could do to alarm the Eagle Guards.”

“Later on, we found out that Duke Lang was jealous and angry!”
