Chapter 422: Lied to You

"I lied to you."

Just when Miss Shen felt her heart beating faster and she was inexplicably excited, Cheng Zhiyuan added this sentence lightly.

Shen Pianpian: ...

The man looked at her expression and seemed to find it very interesting.

"Do you really believe it?"

Shen Pianxian said expressionlessly: “No.”

Cheng Zhiyuan smiled.

"He's just a chef and boss with a bad taste. Killing a chicken is fine, but how could he kill a person? He usually travels around the world and rarely comes back."

"What does partner mean?"

"The Cheng Group also has a catering business. He's a very good cook and has a lot of capital, so we occasionally collaborate."

The man lowered his head to drink water, his expression unclear in the mist.

Miss Shen then walked out of the Yungang spy film and sighed with regret.

She turned her attention to the artificial lake outside the pavilion.

Looking through the floating white gauze, the water surface is sparkling, and occasional wind blows to create shallow ripples. The houses that are looming in the distance are reflected on the water surface, looking very quiet and distant.

“Is there any accommodation available here?”

Shen Pianpian asked, looking at the house over there.

"No."

Cheng Zhiyuan replied,

"It's just a house for landscape, no one lives there."

Shen Pianpian said "oh", and after knowing that it would take some time for the food to be served, she became interested in sightseeing.

Cheng Zhiyuan did not stop him, but only told him not to run too far.

Miss Shen nodded and walked out of the pavilion quickly with brisk steps.

The girl's back disappeared at the end of the bridge corridor, and then the white veil was lifted again. Boss Yan, who had agreed to go downstairs to cook, reappeared, shaking his long pipe and sitting elegantly on the stone bench.

"I thought you would really hang yourself on that withered tree in Xia Yunduan for the rest of your life, but I didn't expect that Young Master Cheng is still very wise."

Yan Qi's expression at this moment was completely different from the gentleman Shen Pianpian had just seen.

When the smile disappeared from his lips, this man looked like a sword unsheathed in the polar regions, with a needle-like coldness and sharpness.

Cheng Zhiyuan seemed to be unaware of the changes in this man and spoke calmly.

"Why did Boss Yan have time to chat with me instead of staying in the kitchen and cooking?"

Yan Qi curled his lips, his eyes were cold and emotionless.

"It's just that I haven't seen Major General Cheng for a long time, and I suddenly want to break a taboo."

"Are you really letting go of the matter concerning your parents? Are you not going to investigate further?"

Cheng Zhiyuan was drinking water. When Yan Qi finished speaking, his hand stopped in mid-air.

The air in the pavilion suddenly stagnated, and the air pressure dropped as if we had instantly entered an extremely cold area.

The wind blew into the pavilion from the lake, and the drooping eyes were revealed among the dissipated water vapor.

As cold as a frozen pond, as silent as an abyss.

·

Shen Pianpian came from the pavilion where white gauze fluttered all the way, and there were basically no people on the road.

What's the point of a restaurant that can barely serve a few people a day, no matter how good the food is? Can it make money?

Miss Shen curled her lips as she thought about this and stopped on the bridge corridor.

The road surface under your feet is made of bamboo blocks, which looks unique and full of natural interest. There are not even railings on the corridor, and you can directly see the calm water surface.

She carefully stuck her head out and saw her reflection clearly on the lake.

Miss Shen was in a playful mood and stepped on her face with the soles of her feet, causing ripples to appear and slowly spread out with the wind.

The feeling of the soft water underfoot is amazing.

Miss Shen was having fun when she suddenly saw ripples spreading from nowhere and intersecting with the ground under her feet.

She looked up curiously.

Not far away is the house that Cheng Zhiyuan said is only for landscape use and not for human habitation.

A few ducks were swimming slowly under the house.
