What's it like to stand at the top of the food chain overnight? Even if... this food chain is poor and pitiful. Even if... you become a scourge that everyone avoids. Even if... there are all so...
Jiang Nuan neither confirmed nor denied this.
Seeing this, Han Yi became impatient.
"Auntie, I really didn't mean any harm. Otherwise, I wouldn't have become friends with Brother Huang Chuan."
He's not stupid. If he really harbored ill will towards the Huang family, he would never have so openly revealed his abnormality.
Openly enticing Huang Chuan was merely a way to increase one's own bargaining power.
He was demonstrating his abilities on one hand, and implying to Jiang Nuan that he meant her no harm on the other.
Of course, if she didn't notice, then...
However, this is unlikely. According to the information he received, Jiang Nuan, the head of the household, is quite capable, and now it seems that this is indeed the case.
“I believe that,” Jiang Nuan nodded. “Otherwise, I wouldn’t have sent him directly to Juquanlou. By the way, did you take care of my stupid son?”
"Not yet," Han Yi said ingratiatingly, handing over two contracts. "I've had someone lock him up and treat him to good food and drink. As for the specifics, it depends on what Auntie plans to do."
"Don't worry about me," Jiang Nuan said, taking the contract, carefully reading it, and then putting it away. "Go ahead and cause trouble, just keep your life."
As she spoke, she glanced at Han Yi and said, "Please make sure he experiences the fickleness of human relationships over time."
"This," Han Yi said, looking troubled, "Auntie, why don't you suggest what to do?"
Jiang Nuan waved her hand and then whispered some instructions.
After hearing this, Han Yi took two steps back in fear, his expression incredibly complicated.
After a long silence, he finally spoke and assured her, "Don't worry, Auntie, I'll arrange it as soon as I get back."
"Thank you very much then," Jiang Nuan's eyes smiled more. "I will definitely give you an explanation after the matter is settled."
"Auntie, do you know what I want?" Han Yi pursed his lips, somewhat nervous.
After all, he was a bit greedy.
“I know a little about your ideas,” Jiang Nuan said casually. “I could see your ambition the first time I went to Juquanlou.”
Juquanlou already has the beginnings of a modern restaurant.
With Han Yi's dedication, it's only a matter of time before it becomes a top-tier restaurant.
“Auntie,” Han Yi felt like he had found a kindred spirit, “I don’t have any great ambitions in this life, I just want to open Juquanlou all over the country. I thought it would take decades, but Auntie has given me hope.”
It's unbelievable that just ten dishes could revive Wuweilou.
Han Yi immediately realized that his opportunity had come.
As long as we hold onto this golden leg, why worry that Juquanlou can't soar to new heights?
For this reason, he didn't hesitate to swallow his pride and recognize his godmother, but ended up making a fool of himself because of his age.
Thinking about this, Han Yi felt embarrassed.
If I had known this would happen, I should have been more careful with my homework.
"Is this your reason for insisting on recognizing your mother?"
"Well," Han Yi wished he could disappear into a hole in the ground, "it's a misunderstanding, just a misunderstanding."
As she spoke, she stood up in a fluster, "Auntie, Brother Huang Chuan is waiting for arrangements. I'll go back now and come again tomorrow."
With that, he hurriedly left.
A moment later, Huang Lao Er poked his head out and asked, "Han Yi is gone?"
“They’re gone,” Jiang Nuan pointed to the door. “You can still catch up with them.”
“Why would I chase after him?” Huang Lao Er complained as he plopped down. “He’s too cunning, I’m scared.”
She paused, her voice becoming even more aggrieved, "I can't beat him in a fight, he's trained in martial arts."
"What's there to be afraid of?" Jiang Nuan looked at her son with confusion. "As long as you stand upright, no matter how many tricks he has up his sleeve, he can't do anything about it."
This son is such a coward, he's nothing like himself.
