"Having stayed in Huichun for so long, you should know a thing or two. You'll be the ones to clean up the mess. Remember what you promised me." Lin Zhaozhao smiled and plucked a withered leaf from the potted plant. Being passively beaten was not in her nature. She wanted to break the surface peace of Huichun City, fish in troubled waters, and verify her suspicions about Lin Jinxiu.
If things really turn out as they seem, then there's going to be quite a show. Those who do many evil deeds will surely perish. I'm afraid even without her meddling, Lin Jinxiu will bring about her own demise.
next day
As dawn broke, there was a knock on the Lin family's door. Lin Zhaozhao, who had finally managed to sleep in, was woken up by the noise and was extremely grumpy.
Grandma Lin, Lin Yangyang, and Yang Yuan stood at the door. Outside, a large group of people were standing, even more boisterous than the pheasants in her space. Lin Zhaozhao walked to the door expressionlessly and said sternly, "What's all the noise about? Speak up if you have something to say, or shut up if you have something to say."
"Vulgar and unbearable."
"His true nature was exposed."
"Nonsense."
"Speak like a human being." Lin Zhaozhao drew her rattan whip, and the group of people in front of her immediately fell silent.
After a long while, someone swallowed hard and stepped forward. "We're here to get a refund for our master. Your Lin's Fruit Shop has already closed down. Who knows when you'll run away?"
"My master won't be that sucker."
"If you know what's good for you, you'd better leave now, or don't blame us for being impolite." Threatening voices rose and fell. Lin Zhaozhao glanced at them coldly, and the voices that met hers gradually weakened until they fell silent. Lin Zhaozhao turned around and went to get the account book and money.
"Don't worry, you won't be shortchanged by a single penny."
"Bring the voucher to collect it." The so-called voucher was a VIP card that Lin Zhaozhao made out of a wooden board, with the card number, name, and recharge amount engraved on it, just in case.
Upon hearing this, those who had hoped to sneak in and take advantage of the situation were immediately dumbfounded. They could only nervously say that they needed to go back and get their receipts. Those who had receipts rushed forward. Lin Zhaozhao checked the receipts and sorted the money while her mind raced.
Before dawn, they couldn't wait to come and cause trouble, claiming that Qin Yi hadn't been involved. Lin Zhaozhao didn't believe it at all.
It seems that yesterday's confrontation really angered her, and her subsequent methods will likely be even more forceful. However, it shouldn't be life-threatening, since Qin Yi still needs her to serve Ning Wanqiu like a slave.
After settling the accounts, Lin Zhaozhao still had some silver left. She flipped through the ledger again and found that there was a VIP card that had not been redeemed, which belonged to Zhang Wenlang.
Just as Lin Zhaozhao was pondering how to handle the situation, Changming arrived, acting furtively like a thief. When he got closer, he scratched the back of his head sheepishly and whispered, "Madam Lin, my young master has something to tell you."
Lin Zhaozhao listened attentively, and then she heard Changming clear his throat, "Ignore that mad dog Qin Yi. Not only will I not return this VIP card, but I will also continue to recharge it. No matter what you sell in the future, I will gladly accept it."
After saying that, Changming looked around and subtly slipped a silver note to her, saying, "Madam Lin, you must hold on, my young master has a taste for this."
Lin Zhaozhao:...
Holding the silver notes between her fingers, a warm current surged through her heart. Lin Zhaozhao smiled gently, her eyes sparkling with starlight.
"Father, Mother, why are you back already?" Not long after Changming left, Li Xiujuan and Lin Fusheng returned pushing a cart. The cart was dented, the steamer was cracked, and the exposed buns were covered with dust and pebbles, making them look quite disheveled.
