Chapter 16: A Tour of the Manor

When Chen Nanfeng heard the helpless and aggrieved words of the girl, he immediately lost all sleepiness. He comforted her, "It's okay, we will find the culprit, and your losses will be compensated. Don't be afraid...", while getting dressed, washing up, and quickly going out.

Driving there, he saw Ye Shuyi cleaning up the mess.

A person who is usually cold and taciturn was hit by an unexpected blow this time and became depressed.

Many people came around, and Ye Shuyi kept apologizing: "I'm sorry, the store was robbed last night... We can't open now."

She explained again and again, "Sorry, we don't want to either. Ah Fei, you take care to record the losses incurred by today's guests. If they drove here, reimburse the gas. Other losses will also be included."

"Sister Shuyi, will someone make false reports like this?" Ah Fei felt that if this happened, the store would suffer even greater losses.

"Of course there are. But we can't do anything about it, so just consider it a bargain for them. The most important thing for a store is its reputation, and that cannot be lost." Ye Shuyi wants to do long-term business, and the most important thing is repeat customers.

So Xie Yanfei took a pen and paper and wrote down everything. When the customers who had suffered losses saw this compensation plan, they stopped making a fuss.

Ye Shuyi looked up and accidentally saw an acquaintance.

After not seeing him for two days, he looked much more haggard.

"Miss Ye, nice to meet you again." Chen Nanfeng took the lead and strode over. "There are still a group of police officers from the police station on their way."

"Well, thank you for sharing." Ye Shuyi felt relieved when she saw the person.

Maybe it's his job that makes him feel safe.

Chen Nanfeng entered the store to observe.

It was obvious that all the places that needed to be destroyed had been destroyed. The table was covered with condiments, and some parts of the countertop had been chopped by a kitchen knife.

The wires were cut, the tablecloths were torn, and not a penny was left.

"It was a gang crime. The perpetrators were probably unable to find the large sum of money, so they became angry and vandalized the place intentionally." Chen Nanfeng concluded.

"Is he a thief from nearby?" Ye Shuyi asked.

"It's hard to say. Have you ever offended anyone?"

"No, except for the smuggling gang last time, but didn't you catch the people?" Ye Shuyi said seriously.

"In that case, it could be a local thief. But why would they rob your store?"

"Because we are about to launch a new product, it is very popular and we have made quite a lot of sales in the past two days."

"That makes sense."

During the conversation, other police officers arrived and set up a cordon, collected fingerprints and hair, and went through various procedures.

"How long will it take you to handle the case? When will Ye Ji open for business?" Ye Shuyi asked.

If it is pushed too late, people may forget about this store, and all the work done before will be wasted.

"It depends on you. If the renovation work is done well, we can open for business tomorrow. We have already kept the relevant evidence. As long as we track it based on fingerprints, we can find out the truth." Chen Nanfeng replied.

After hearing this, Ye Shuyi felt much more at ease.

They lost some money, but fortunately they made a lot of money in the past two days.

Ye Shuyi contacted the relevant personnel to repair the electrical wires, and she and several employees were responsible for cleaning up and maintaining order.

Once she finds out who it is, she will definitely take revenge and give him a good slap.

This is all the hard work of my father and myself.

They also chose to cause trouble when launching the new product "Lemon Shredded Chicken".

It's hard not to overthink it. Is it really such a coincidence?

"Don't worry, I will contact you once the culprit is found." Chen Nanfeng promised.

"Thank you for your hard work." Ye Shuyi said.

"No need. Just make me more delicious food."

Speaking of this, Ye Shuyi remembered that she had not made breakfast for Young Master Chen today.

It's almost eleven o'clock now.

"Are you very hungry? Should I cook for you?" Ye Shuyi said in annoyance.

I feel a little guilty for taking the money and not doing the job.

"It's okay, I'm used to it. Compared to before, it's nothing." Chen Nanfeng acted calmly.

The kitchen is not cleaned up yet. Should I borrow a kitchen from another store or someone else's home?

Or go to Ye Shuyi's house.

But that place might be too shabby for rich people. Ye Shuyi was glad that she hadn't invited him to sit there before, otherwise the young master would definitely not be able to adapt.

Just as she was thinking about a solution, Chen Nanfeng suggested that she go to his house to cook.

His family has all kinds of ingredients and cooking tools, and there are also several aunts who can help.

Very convenient.

He hoped she would agree.

On the one hand, he was a little hungry, and on the other hand, what if Ye Shuyi was willing to stay in his house as a private chef after seeing such a good environment? Wouldn’t that be perfect?

Ye Shuyi didn't think too much about it. Since the boss had spoken, she just agreed.

Repulse Bay is an area where wealthy people gather, located south of Deep Water Bay.

Unlike the bustling Deep Water Bay, Repulse Bay is more secluded, with a crescent-shaped beach and beautiful scenery.

The Chen family, a tycoon in Hong Kong's business world, lives here.

But Ye Shuyi certainly would not associate Chen Nanfeng with the internationally famous Chen family.

That is a leading family and it is difficult for me to get in touch with them.

The car stopped at a Western European-style manor.

Two rows of men in suits were already waiting at the door, lined up respectfully.

Someone thoughtfully opened the car door for Ye Shuyi: "Miss Ye, please."

Ye Shuyi said thank you.

How did he know that his last name was Ye? Did Chen Nanfeng tell him in advance?

This manor is so imposing, even more magnificent than any rich man’s house Ye Shuyi imagined.

The housekeeper who had come to the store to get food before also came and led the way for her.

"Just follow Butler Xue. I'm going to change my clothes," said Chen Nanfeng.

"Oh, okay." Ye Shuyi agreed, but didn't pay any attention to what he said specifically.

My eyes are attracted by these fresh sights!

So beautiful!

What a big, tall, beautiful fountain! There's also a rockery and goldfish. Why are there fish with colorful tails? What kind of new species is this?

Ye Shuyi, who has lived two lives, has never seen this world.

The path was paved with cobblestones, and on both sides were trees she didn't recognize.

Curiosity drove her to ask the person next to her: "Butler Xue, what kind of tree is this?"

"Rosewood."

Ye Shuyi knew that rosewood was a very precious tree.

But shouldn't this tree be treated as a treasure? How can it be turned into a green belt?

Auntie was sweeping the floor. Seeing Ye Shuyi, she respectfully called out, "Good afternoon, Miss Ye."

After he finished shouting, he was still giving Butler Xue a strange look, and he was clearly laughing.

What?

Ye Shuyi also said to her: "Good afternoon, Auntie!"

"Miss Ye, you are the first woman the young master brought back." said the aunt.

Such familiar lines...Ye Shuyi read a lot of them when she was in junior high school.

A domineering CEO novel.

"Hahaha." Ye Shuyi could only smile awkwardly.

"Miss Ye, our young master has a good family background and good character, but he just loves to play. He left his family fortune of tens of millions behind and insisted on going to the police station, saying that solving cases gives him a sense of accomplishment. Miss Ye, you should persuade him more. He is the only male in the Chen family."
