Chapter 507 Please... Please Save Her
"Okay, as you wish."
Jiang Wan couldn't help but laugh. They went up to the private room on the second floor. It was a little chilly in the room.
Cheng Jin was generous and put ice cubes in every private room. On such a hot day, the room felt as comfortable as if it had air conditioning.
"Please serve a copy of our signs."
Cheng Jin was very generous, and Fuling and Jiang Wan did not stop him, as they came just to try the food.
Of course, you have to try each one.
Everyone in the shop knew Cheng Jin's identity, so they naturally followed him and quickly brought a table full of barbecue.
“It smells pretty good.”
Fuling sniffed, "But it doesn't smell as good as the one made by my junior master."
"You made a conclusion without even tasting it, what a dog's nose you have!"
Cheng Jin snorted in dissatisfaction and personally poured a glass of iced milk tea for Jiang Wan.
"I always feel that the taste is a little off, why don't you try it?"
In front of Jiang Wan, Cheng Jin is now extremely well behaved, for fear of offending the God of Wealth.
"You are quite self-aware."
Fuling curled her lips, took a sip of milk tea, and then frowned.
"It's definitely not as good as what my junior uncle makes. Even what Qiu Niang makes can't compare."
"You didn't handle the milk source cleanly."
Jiang Wan tasted the difference after just one bite, "Send the chef to Dongnuan Xialiang to learn for a few more days."
"OK."
Cheng Jin accepted the suggestion humbly and said happily: "Then the crayfish..."
"Why are you still thinking about crayfish?"
Jiang Wan felt helpless. It had been so long since this happened, but she still couldn't get over it with Cheng Jin.
“It’s really delicious.”
Cheng Jin savored the taste of the crayfish, which made Fuling give her a cold look.
"Look at what you have accomplished."
"You make it sound like you don't want to eat."
Cheng Jin was always easily ruined by the cool and refreshing Fuling, so Jiang Wan tasted the food slowly.
They were sitting near the window. Jiang Wan lowered her eyes slightly and just happened to see a familiar figure below.
It’s Chen Ce and Mrs. Chen.
Neither of them brought the child today. Chen Ce stood shoulder to shoulder with Mrs. Chen with a gentle look in his eyes.
He lowered his eyes gently as if he was saying something to Madam Chen, and Madam Chen's mouth corners slightly raised slightly due to the teasing.
Seeing that she was recovering well, Jiang Wan felt relieved.
Soon, she saw Chen Ce and his wife enter the barbecue shop, probably to eat.
Jiang Wan slowly withdrew her gaze and put down the barbecue skewer in her hand.
“The heat is still a little off, but it’s not a big problem, I’ll improve it slowly.
We can’t achieve success overnight. This shop has only been open for a short time, and it’s already pretty good to have this flavor.”
"It's rare to hear you praise me."
Cheng Jin came out of the private room in high spirits, and after a while, he came back holding a box.
"Jiang Wan, this is the dividend from the opening of the business until now, you can keep it first."
"We check the accounts once a month. This is the first time I've seen someone so anxious to send money."
Jiang Wan opened the box, which was full of banknotes. She seemed to see countless golden pieces of gold.
Cheng Jin smiled innocently, "I am doing this to prove my ability to you. I hope you won't forget me next time you have any good business.
Unlike my second uncle, who made a lot of money, you haven't received any dividends yet."
"If your second uncle knew that you slandered him like this, I'm afraid you would be punished by family rules."
Jiang Wan couldn't help laughing, but she didn't blame Uncle Cheng. After all, everything was done according to the contract that was signed.
The Cheng family is large and powerful, and involves many places, so the difficulty of accounting will naturally increase.
"Look at what you can do."
Fuling interrupted unhappily, "When you open a few more branches, the account book will be much bigger than this."
“I also want to open a few more branches.”
Cheng Jin's money-obsessed look reminded Jiang Wan of herself, and for the first time she felt that they had a similar taste.
After finishing the table of food, Cheng Jin did not keep them, "You guys go back first, I still have some things to tell the shopkeeper."
"good."
Jiang Wan took Fuling downstairs. As soon as they reached the first floor, they met Chen Ce, who had an anxious look on his face.
He looked around and shouted, then pulled the servant to ask.
"My wife? Has anyone seen my wife?"
"Brother Chen, what's going on?"
Jiang Wan was full of confusion, as she didn't see Madam Chen in the lobby at the moment.
"Miss Jiang... I just went to the toilet and when I came back my wife was gone."
The waiter from the barbecue shop standing on one side said with a bitter face:
"Sir, your wife was in the private room just now, but I was so busy that I didn't notice it."
"Did anyone see my wife coming out of the private room?"
Chen Ce looked at the people in the lobby nervously. Everyone was silent. They all came out to eat and no one noticed anything.
Seeing that Chen Ce was so anxious that he lost his composure, Jiang Wan added, "His wife wore a blue top and light blue pants today.
Her hair was tied up at the back of her head and she had a red string on her wrist.
After a few breaths, an old woman spoke up and said, "According to what you said, I did see a woman dressed like this leaving the shop.
She went that way, but I'm not sure if it was her."
She pointed to the right outside the shop and Chen Ce bowed deeply to her.
"Thank you, grandma."
"Your home is in that direction too. Maybe she has gone back. Let's go look for her together."
Jiang Wan felt a little worried when she thought about Madam Chen's health condition, so she planned to go along to look for her.
"Thank you very much."
Chen Ce was not one to act pretentiously. He paid the bill in a panic and ran out.
Jiang Wan and Fuling followed behind. This street was not far from the Chen family.
As he walked along, Jiang Wan looked around to see if there was Madam Chen on the road.
But it didn’t.
Fuling followed Jiang Wan anxiously, "Master Junior, why doesn't she wait for her husband?"
"Fuling, she was too worried and fell ill."
Jiang Wan explained and was about to say more when she suddenly heard Chen Ce scream in pain.
"My wife!"
"quick!"
Jiang Wan quickened her pace, turned the corner, and saw a century-old tree not far away.
Madam Chen hung a white silk thread on it and hung herself on it.
Chen Ce broke the white silk in a panic and hugged Madam Chen in his arms. He looked up at Jiang Wan with red eyes.
"Miss Jiang, please...save her."
"Why did she hang herself?"
Fuling was so frightened that her face turned pale, but she still forced herself to keep up with Jiang Wan.
Hearing the noise, many people who were originally standing by the secluded tree came to watch the fun and surrounded them.
"Why is this young lady so depressed?"
"The neck is all blue, it looks like there's no hope of saving him."
"Alas, this boy is quite pitiful. He actually became a widower."
“…”
Jiang Wan rushed forward and sniffed his breath, "Don't worry, he's still breathing."
As he spoke, Jiang Wan asked Chen Ce to lay Madam Chen flat on the ground and began to perform cardiopulmonary resuscitation.
Not until she noticed that her heartbeat had recovered did Jiang Wan take out another silver needle from the needle bag and pricked Madam Chen's body.
"Why are you so stupid..."
Chen Ce was kneeling beside him. He was a grown man, but now he was crying uncontrollably.
