Transmigrated as the Scumbag Ex-Wife of the Farming Novel's Male Lead

After struggling in the apocalypse for ten years, Jiang Bai transmigrated into a farming novel as the scumbag villainess. At the start, she abused the villain's child, not only ran off with all...

Chapter 79 Jealousy

Zhao Yi was like a rooster whose territory had been invaded, and he immediately bristled.

He said, "I'm sorry, I kept Jiang Bai up too late yesterday, so he woke up late today."

His eyes held a provocative glint, and Young Master Wang immediately looked at Jiang Bai with pity.

He stared at Jiang Bai with a hint of surprise and said, "So it turns out that Chief Zhao disturbs other people's rest at night. What a pity for such a beautiful girl like Jiang Bai."

"If I had a wife as excellent as Miss Jiang Bai, I would definitely cherish her and not add any unnecessary burdens to her."

Zhao Yi was furious when he heard this.

Jiang Bai couldn't help but look at Wang Gongzi's face again and again: that line he just gave, what a green tea bitch, is that what she felt?

Jiang Bai didn't actually like Young Master Wang. In fact, all her actions, in a conventional interpretation, could only be described as polite.

That's right, it's just politeness.

Politeness is a traditional virtue of the Chinese nation, a beautiful quality possessed by all Chinese people. Therefore, even though Jiang Bai was extremely annoyed by Young Master Wang, he would still show him a smile.

This is not for any other reason than that she can't afford to offend the other party, nor can she avoid them, so she might as well try to appease them and see if she can ease the tension.

Is it better to be friends with the royal family than enemies?

Seeing that Zhao Yi was so angry that his head was practically steaming, Jiang Bai quickly grabbed his arm.

She pulled Zhao Yi into the milk tea shop and gestured for Wang Gongzi to follow. The two of them followed her directly into the customer-only area.

Jiang Bai said, "Perfect timing. I've just developed a new milk tea. Try it out and give me your feedback."

After saying that, she bent down and went into the kitchen.

After Zhao Yi watched her figure disappear behind the door, he turned to Young Master Wang and asked, "What exactly is your purpose in approaching Jiang Bai?"

Young Master Wang replied leisurely, "A fair maiden is sought after by a gentleman. I suppose Chief Lin has heard this saying before?"

The veins on Zhao Yi's forehead bulged as he tried to lower his voice, saying, "Jiang Bai is already married to me..."

“It’s not like we can’t get a divorce.” Young Master Wang interrupted him, shrugging his shoulders with a relaxed expression.

Zhao Yi said through gritted teeth, "We won't get a divorce, we'll be together for life."

Young Master Wang said meaningfully, "That's just what you think."

Zhao Yi was so angry he almost vomited blood.

Just as he was about to retaliate, Jiang Bai came out carrying two cups of milk tea.

Zhao Yi instinctively took it from her and held it, then heard Jiang Bai say, "One cup for you, and one cup for Young Master Wang."

Zhao Yi looked at the contents of the two cups and, seeing that they were the same, weighed them carefully before handing the cup with the smaller amount to Young Master Wang.

Jiang Bai didn't understand the intricacies between men. Young Master Wang chuckled, glanced at him disdainfully, and took a sip of his milk tea.

He rarely eats food from outside, and this bite was only because of Jiang Bai. However, the silky and rich taste immediately captivated him. He opened his eyes wide in disbelief, made two soft whimpering sounds, but still couldn't bear to swallow it.

Zhao Yi also took a sip, carefully smacking his lips to savor the unique features of the new product.

Jiang Bai asked, "How is it? Is it good?"

This one has bayberry flesh and milk foam added, the sweet, sour and salty flavors are intertwined and the proportions are just right.

Young Master Wang couldn't help but shake his head and exclaim, "It's so delicious! You're amazing!"

Zhao Yi took another sip. He had basically tried all the new products in the store, so he was very experienced. After tasting it, he said, "It's very good, but this is the best we can do. We can't add any more seasonings. If we add any more, it will be too much."

Jiang Bai nodded, understanding Zhao Yi's meaning: if seasonings couldn't be added, the price couldn't be raised, and the cost would be lower.

After all, by now, most people who love milk tea have prepaid for a card, which offers a 30% or 20% discount on top of the original price. Some even prepay 100 taels of silver for a 50% discount.

Jiang Bai said, "This is a seasonal limited edition, used to express gratitude to customers, not to make money from it."

After all, it won't be available for very long; it will be removed from the market once the bayberries are no longer in season.

Young Master Wang didn't understand the meaning behind their words and subconsciously retorted to Zhao Yi, "Too full? It's not too full. This is so delicious that it won't be full no matter how much more is added. I'll just drink it all."

Jiang Bai smiled politely at Young Master Wang. After all, he was an outsider, and offering him the new product was just a formality, so she didn't explain further.

Zhao Yi glanced at him.

Jiang Bai said, "The store has many other delicious drinks, so we can come and try them more often in the future."

"Okay," Young Master Wang's attention was now completely focused on the milk tea. He took one sip after another and exclaimed, "I can't believe there's such a delicious thing in this world!"

Upon hearing Jiang Bai's words, Zhao Yi angrily pulled Jiang Bai inside. The two hid in a corner, and Zhao Yi asked through gritted teeth, "Why did you let him come again?"

"Isn't it good to bring in one more customer?" Jiang Bai blinked innocently.

Zhao Yi said sarcastically, "I think you don't want to get another customer, you just want to secretly meet him at the bubble tea shop, right?"

"What does it have to do with me? I don't go to bubble tea shops often." She only comes two or three times a month at most.

The shop is thriving thanks to Tian Rou, her sister-in-law. Customer loyalty has increased, and new products are being launched more frequently. This seasonal limited edition was suggested by her.

—The bayberries from Tian Rou's second brother's family are not selling well.

Regardless of Tian Rou's motives, as long as the milk tea tastes good and is accounted for through official channels, Jiang Bai won't interfere.

Horses won't get fat without night grass.

Zhao Yi was taken aback for a moment before saying, "If he comes, aren't you going to come with him?"

“He’s not a child anymore, why would he need someone to accompany him?” Jiang Bai looked at him in surprise, not understanding why he would ask such a stupid question. She said, “I’m so busy, I don’t have time to always be with him.”

"Since Young Master Wang hasn't revealed his identity, we don't need to be so overly cautious. Why don't we just treat him like an ordinary person?"

After saying that, seeing Zhao Yi's relieved expression, Jiang Bai tilted his head and squinted his eyes.

She asked, "Why are you acting so strange today? You were the same yesterday, always asking random questions."

"You wouldn't be jealous of me, would you?"

"Jealous of you?" Zhao Yi's eyes widened.

“You’re just jealous that I had this opportunity,” Jiang Bai patted his shoulder. “But that’s how business is. Some people are very lucky. Like me, didn’t I get the general’s favor before?”

"This kind of jealousy is impossible."

Jiang Bai could tell at a glance that this young master Wang was definitely going to sign up for a membership card. Tian Rou loved rich young men who were foolish and had too much money. Without Jiang Bai even having to give any special instructions, this store could easily squeeze another box of silver out of the young master Wang's pocket.
