“This… no, no, no…”

The embarrassment of having his secret thoughts caught jumped straight from his heart to his face, and Chai Zhengzhen’s face instantly turned crimson. In a rush, he said, “I didn’t mean that, I wasn’t thinking of making fun of Chef Zhang, I wasn’t planning to kick him when he’s down…”

“Manager Chai.” Zhuang Qingning said, “I don’t know what you are thinking now, but at this critical moment, Fushun Tower has changed its chef, and I won’t be supplying tofu to them anymore. Ruyi Pavilion can take this opportunity to attract some customers and grab some business.”

“So now, Manager Chai, you’d better buy more things. Perhaps you can even reduce the prices for a few days, so that the business of Ruyi Pavilion can thrive for a while.”

At first, Chai Zhengzhen was so embarrassed that his toes almost tore through the soles of his shoes, and he wished he could find a crack in the ground to hide in. But when he heard Zhuang Qingning’s words, he was taken aback.

What did Zhuang Qingning mean by this?

Was she not mocking him for his actions at this time, but instead approving, even giving him some advice?

Chai Zhengzhen wasn’t exactly sure what Zhuang Qingning planned to do, but regardless, if Zhuang Qingning approved of him buying more, and was willing to sell more to him, then he would buy.

So Chai Zhengzhen took away twice as much as usual from the tofu shop and returned to Ruyi Pavilion. After instructing people to handle these goods, he kept pacing back and forth in the backyard.

After he had paced around for more than a dozen rounds, the waiter Ding Jin at Ruyi Pavilion couldn’t stand it anymore and stopped him, “Manager, what are you doing?”

“What do you think Manager Zhuang is up to?” Unable to contain himself, Chai Zhengzhen told the entire story to Ding Jin. “I really can’t figure it out.”

“This is what they call ‘the one involved is clueless, the observer sees clear’.”

Ding Jin chuckled, “You know that Manager Zhuang and Chef Zhang are very close. Now that Chef Zhang has been kicked out of Fushun Tower and has made an enemy out of Manager Feng, wouldn’t Manager Zhuang view Fushun Tower and Manager Feng as thorns in the sides?”

“Yes, yes.” Chai Zhengzhen smacked his thigh, “So Manager Zhuang first cut off the supply to Fushun Tower, then advised me to steal Fushun Tower’s business. It’s all to make things difficult for Fushun Tower.”

“That’s how it is, that’s how it is.”

Chai Zhengzhen chuckled, “Look at me being a pig-brain; I didn’t even think of this.”

“Who says an involved person is clueless? Don’t belittle yourself, Manager. If you’re a pig-brain, what does that make us?” Ding Jin gave a wry smile. “You’re just confused momentarily.”

“I really am. I don’t know why but I suddenly couldn’t think of this.” Chai Zhengzhen brushed the back of his head, in deep thought. “Speaking of Manager Zhuang wanting things to be difficult for Fushun Tower, with Manager Feng and Chef Zhang at odds, Chef Zhang must be fuming at this moment. What if we invite Chef Zhang to come to our Ruyi Pavilion to cook, won’t our Ruyi Pavilion immediately become popular?”

“Old Lao in our kitchen was just saying the other day his son wants to take over his position so he can retire. We need to find another cook, so why not invite Chef Zhang? Chef Zhang gets to vent, and our business improves. Isn’t this a perfect solution?”

“But doing so would make us seem ruthless. If we become enemies with Manager Feng over this…”

Chai Zhengzhen sighed deeply.

Indeed, nothing in this world could be completely perfect.

“That seems to be the case.” Ding Jin rubbed his ear, “But it’s hard to say whether this will work out or not. We don’t know what Chef Zhang is thinking…”

“But then again, leaving aside the competitive relationship between Ruyi Pavilion and Fushun Tower that has been going on for many years, we really do need to find a cook right now. There’s no harm in giving it a try since Chef Zhang is free.” 𝗳r𝐞𝐞w𝐞bn𝚘ve𝚕.co𝐦

“As for the issues with Manager Feng… In my opinion, with Manager Feng’s temperament, even if we don’t do this, it doesn’t necessarily mean that he would get along with you, Manager.”

To put it politely, a frozen relationship wouldn’t be affected much by a bit more ice.
