Hu Ying thought Tang Yi would reject it outright, but to her surprise, he agreed so readily.
But, does he keep his word?
"A gentleman's word is as good as his bond. Tang Yi, if you lie to me, you will be punished by heaven!"
...With Qiu Yan's management and Qiu Dayu's oversight, Xingyuelou's business steadily improved.
At this moment, Qiu Dayu and Zhou Bin were sitting at the table, one still and one moving.
In the past few days, Qiu Dayu has frequently run into Zhou Bin at Yiyun Academy, and each time, he uses the excuse of wanting to talk business with him.
Zhou Bin knew nothing about doing business, and he didn't like doing business.
So, he always said the same thing.
“My father is waiting for you at home, Second Manager, go find him yourself.”
So they dismissed Qiu Dayu.
Qiu Dayu, however, always ended up getting the short end of the stick.
This bookworm, why doesn't he know how to share the burden with his father?
Not to mention Lu Jia, even Zhao An suspected that his uncle was plotting something against Zhou Bin.
Why were the two of them sitting at the same table today?
Of course, this was also thanks to his nephew, Zhao An, who helped him.
Qiu Dayu put in a lot of effort for this.
Qiu Dayu looked at the food on the table and said, "Brother Zhou, don't be shy, eat more."
Zhou Bin stared blankly at the food on the table, then glanced at the bewildered Qiu Dayu. "You still haven't told me why you've come to see me today?"
"Let's eat first, and then we can talk."
Qiu Dayu thought to himself, "Why isn't Zhang Yuyan here yet?"
A bookworm, full of silly charm.
Qiu Dayu learned from others that Zhou Bin didn't learn to speak until he was four years old.
Although he was a bit slow-witted, he studied diligently and was honest and kind.
Furthermore, he has a gentle personality and is not competitive or aggressive.
Now that you mention it, Qiu Dayu actually quite likes Zhou Bin.
I just don't know if the eldest daughter of the Zhang family would even look at this bookworm.
Zhou Bin gave a soft "hmm" and continued, "Ever since you came to my house to buy vegetables that day, my father has been waiting for you every day."
“This…” Qiu Dayu went to the Zhou family last time and promised to go again, but he hasn’t gone back. “No rush.”
Zhou Bin: "Oh."
Qiu Dayu raised the corner of his lips slightly and placed a piece of fish slice with cream sauce on Zhou Bin's plate. "Try it and see if it's good."
"Okay, sure."
Zhou Bin picked up a slice of fish, tasted it carefully, and nodded, "The food at Xingyuelou is truly renowned."
"If you like it, eat more."
Just as Qiu Dayu finished speaking, Zhou's father appeared at the entrance of Xingyue Tower.
Is he impatient to find me because he couldn't wait any longer?
With a tense, aged face, Zhou's father walked towards Qiu Dayu and the other man.
"Bin'er, Second Manager, you...you..." He pointed his index finger at the two of them with trembling hands, looking as if he wanted to say something but couldn't.
It's like catching someone in the act of adultery.
"Dad, what brings you here?" Zhou Bin was startled by his father's appearance, looking completely bewildered. "What happened between us?"
"Second Manager, I heard that you have been waiting for my Bin'er at Yiyun Academy every day. Is that true?"
Zhou's father heard about this from the scholars in their Chengxi Village.
Rumors circulated that his son was gay.
Upon hearing this, Zhou's father exclaimed, "This is outrageous!"
He was already disappointed in his son, and if his son continued like this, wouldn't the Zhou family line end?
After inquiring, he learned that the person looking for his son was the second manager of Xingyuelou.
He had been waiting ever since Qiu Dayu last visited his home.
But not only did he wait in vain, he also heard about this matter.
It's hard not to think negatively.
