Lan Yao had no idea that her so-called biological mother was conspiring with others to scheme against her.
Even if Lan Yao knew, would she be afraid?
That's definitely not the case.
So, Lan Yao even strolled around the fish market in a very good mood.
Although it was a fish market on the shore, Lan Yao arrived quite late.
By this time, most of the fresh, high-quality goods have already been bought up.
All that's left here are the still relatively fresh seafood.
Lan Yao didn't mind at all; she picked out her favorite foods, such as prawns, scallops, and squid, and bought a variety of them.
She also made an appointment with several stall owners who were going out to sea tomorrow, saying that if they caught any delicious seafood, they could sell it to her, and she would definitely come early tomorrow.
As for what other seafood Gu Zixiao will eat?
To be honest, Lan Yao didn't know. She mainly thought that Gu Zixiao must be here for the first time and had probably never eaten seafood before.
So, since they were both from inland areas, they decided to buy some familiar food instead.
As for the rest, we'll talk about it after she's looked at it tomorrow morning.
Lan Yao bought her things and happily walked back home.
On her way back, she noticed that someone seemed to be following her.
Moreover, those people seemed to know how to follow people; after following them for a while, they would switch to another person and pretend to be passersby.
If I weren't vigilant, perceptive, and observant, I would have really been deceived by them.
Jade Pixiu: "Master, do you think it could be?"
Although Pipi didn't finish speaking, Lan Yao knew what it wanted to say.
Lan Yao said calmly, "I'm pretty sure it's true."
Without a doubt, it was probably her mother who did it.
As for why she did that?
Lan Yao could guess with her toenails that it was simply because she hadn't saved her earlier, which was why she was resentful.
It just so happens that the sleazy man had been looking at her strangely earlier, and Xu Yingxue probably noticed that, so she wanted to use him to kidnap her.
Let her suffer the same fate as her.
Lan Yao clicked her tongue inwardly, sighing at her own bad luck for having such terrible parents.
However, to Lan Yao's surprise, she hadn't seen Xu Yingxue for many years.
How could Xu Yingxue recognize her at a glance?
Could it be that her instinct to save herself was triggered?
You should know that when she first returned to the Lan family, she looked so miserable that Xu Yingxue felt quite disgusted when she first saw her.
After that, she couldn't be bothered to come see her again. Even when she did come, she would go to see Lan Jiaojiao, whom she missed dearly.
That's why Lan Yao was momentarily surprised, but after the surprise, all that remained was calm.
Yu Suanpan clearly didn't understand the cryptic conversation between Lan Yao and Yu Pixiu.
It asked urgently, "Master, what are you two talking about?"
Lan Yao: "Let's talk about it again, someone is eyeing me."
Jade Abacus: "...I know. You're the ones talking about who's after you, Master."
Lan Yao: "Who else could it be? Of course, it's my biological mother."
Jade Abacus: ...
Hearing this, Yu Suanpan became particularly angry: "How could that woman do this? She's never been good to you, so why is she plotting against you, Master?"
"Alright, alright. Don't be angry. What's the point of getting angry at someone like that?" Lan Yao didn't care at all and even comforted her adorable pet.
Jade Abacus wanted to say something more, but was interrupted by Jade Pixiu.
"By the way, Master, judging by the time, your little husband should be back by now, right? I wonder how his studies are going?"
Lan Yao knew that Yu Pixiu was deliberately changing the subject, but she still cheerfully agreed, "It should be good. Didn't he say himself that he has a great talent for cooking?"
After they got married, Gu Zixiao once said that if he didn't want to work anymore, he would just open a restaurant.
At that time, things will be done on a regular schedule, and you'll have a very leisurely time. You won't have to separate the two of them like this.
However, Lan Yao knew that a few years later, society would enter an era of great economic development.
If Gu Zixiao really opens a restaurant, with his culinary skills, it will definitely be a huge success.
After all, food is the most important thing for people, and those with good skills will naturally be able to make their businesses bigger and stronger.
However, we can actually do that when the time comes.
It was mainly to fulfill their wishes, as they both love to eat.
If I were to actually open a restaurant then, it would be quite convenient.
Jade Pixiu: "...I haven't tried it, so I can't judge your man's cooking skills."
Yu Suanpan coughed lightly, and said with a hint of smugness, "I know about this matter."
Lan Yao became interested: "Oh, how did you know?"
Yu Suanpan didn't mince words, stating directly: "I secretly tested it. Your man's cooking skills are at a high level. In the past, that would have been the skill of a top chef. Hmm, probably at the level of an imperial chef?"
Actually, there's something else Yu Suanpan didn't say: its owner's cooking skills are also at a chef's level.
If one person runs a restaurant, there's absolutely no problem; customers will flock in, business will be booming, and the business will be booming.
It could even grow bigger and stronger!
This is how the data analysis yielded the results.
Lan Yao said "Oh," and then she replied, "It seems we can definitely give it a try in the future."
Of course, it's the kind of person who does whatever they want.
You can drive it for a day when you want, and rest when you don't.
Anyway, she has so much money in her space, enough for the two of them to live on for several lifetimes.
I wonder what kind of company she should start when society is less oppressive in a few years?
I heard that the two companies from Lanzhou and Xuzhou donated a portion of their assets. If they wait until the time comes, they will definitely return the money, right?
Why……
These things will take a few more years, so there's no rush. We can think about them slowly when the time comes.
So, Lan Yao followed the little tail behind her back back to the guesthouse where they were staying.
When she arrived at her room, she opened the door and went inside, only to find that Gu Zixiao had already returned.
As soon as Gu Zixiao saw her, he asked with a smile, "Wife, where have you been? I've missed you so much."
Lan Yao put a lot of the seafood she bought into a basin next to her.
"I went to the fish market on the shore. But I arrived late, and all the fresh seafood was gone. So I just bought some that I had eaten before."
By the way, how's your cooking coming along?
Gu Zixiao coughed lightly: "Not bad."
Seeing his expression, Lan Yao raised an eyebrow, walked to Gu Zixiao's side, reached out and hooked his chin, gently kissing him: "Did something happen?"
Seeing that he couldn't hide it from his wife, Gu Zixiao smiled and said, "There are indeed some things."
