One sentence was enough to make both of them blush.
Su An instantly averted her gaze as if she had been electrocuted. If she's protective of her own child, fine, but why say she's protective of her husband!
How could their own family's wealth god not protect them?
"I'm not going to argue with you anymore, I'm going to greet the guests!" she muttered, her face flushed, and quickly ran off.
"Shut up." Fu Zhun glanced reproachfully at Zhou Li, but a slight smile played on his lips, his heart filled with warmth.
Protecting her husband?
That sounds good.
At this moment, He Cheng had already run away without looking back, hiding all the way to the noodle shop.
His face was extremely pale, but as soon as he went in, he was met by Ni Dagui, who also had a dark face.
"Didn't you swear you could do it? And yet you were chased out with a knife!"
Ni Dagui had already seen what was happening across the street from the noodle shop, and he glared at He Cheng with great anger.
"What's your rush? That bitch has a deep grudge against me. How can she be reconciled with me just by showing weakness once or twice?" He Cheng spat viciously, grinding his teeth with hatred as he thought of his pathetic state just now.
He never expected that Su An would be so heartless after he apologized in public!
Ni Dagui couldn't help but sneer and shake his head repeatedly, then reached out his hand towards him.
"Alright, judging from what I just saw, you can't get close to Su An at all. Our cooperation is null and void. Return the money immediately!"
It was a huge mistake to place your hopes on such a scoundrel!
Upon hearing this, He Cheng immediately clutched his chest, looking away with undisguised embarrassment and guilt. "I told you not to rush, you don't know that Su An used to have nothing but me in her heart. All I need to do is apologize a few more times..."
Before he could finish speaking, a group of thugs burst into the noodle shop, and upon seeing him, shouted, "He Cheng! You old scoundrel, let's see where you can hide this time!"
Ni Dagui's eyelids twitched immediately. He was an old hand at this and could tell at a glance that these were clearly thugs from the casino who were collecting debts!
How could someone who's practically a beggar have gotten involved in gambling?!
He Cheng was terrified and turned to run away in a panic, but was immediately pinned down by a group of burly men.
He immediately turned pale and pleaded, "Heroes, I just paid back one hundred taels of silver the day before yesterday, and I really have no money left now. Please give me some more time!"
"Pah! You old deadbeat, how long have you been dragging this out? You think you can fool me with just a hundred taels?"
The thug, looking menacing, swiftly drew a machete from his waist and grinned maliciously, "No money, huh? Fine, I'll just chop off one of your hands and collect interest!"
The large cleaver was raised high, but He Cheng could only stare blankly and scream in terror.
"Stop!" Ni Dagui shouted urgently from the side, also terrified and covered in a cold sweat.
He Cheng is clearly using his own money to pay off gambling debts!
But the matter isn't settled yet, and we've already lost money. We can't afford to have any more accidents happen to people!
Thinking of this, Ni Dagui was furious but helpless. He could only grit his teeth and roar, "How much money does he owe? I'll pay half for him first. Let's not touch his auto parts for now!"
"you?"
The group of thugs exchanged glances and then sheathed their knives. "Half of this kid's gambling debt, five hundred taels, not a penny less!"
With things having come to this, Ni Dagui had no choice but to reluctantly part with his savings to at least send the thugs away.
Seeing He Cheng still slumped on the ground like a rag doll, not yet recovered, Ni Dagui was even more furious, his eyes filled with gloom, and he viciously grabbed He Cheng's collar.
"Damn it, I'm giving you one last chance. If you still can't gain Su An's trust, I won't let you off the hook!"
"I..." He Cheng's face turned pale and then red. After a long while, he swallowed hard, and his expression became increasingly sinister.
"I know, don't worry this time!"
Su An was his last resort; he couldn't let go of him even if it meant death!
Su Family Breakfast Shop.
With some free time, Su An had long since put aside his random thoughts and focused on developing sesame paste.
She carefully selected white sesame seeds, poured them into a large pot, lit the stove, and slowly stir-fried them over a low flame, constantly turning them with a spatula in her hand to ensure the sesame seeds were heated evenly.
As the temperature rises, the sesame seeds begin to make a slight "crackling" sound, and their aroma gradually spreads.
When the sesame seeds turned golden yellow, the whole room was filled with a wonderful aroma, which quickly attracted the whole family and Fu Zhun, making everyone's mouths water.
Next, Su An put the fragrant sesame seeds into the stone mill, ground them into a fine paste, and finally poured it into a large earthenware jar. He added an appropriate amount of sesame oil and stirred it. The sesame paste was now ready!
In an instant, the rich fragrance grew stronger and stronger, as if it could penetrate one's soul.
Zhou Li wiped his drool for the umpteenth time, his eyes fixed on Su An's movements like a wolf's. "Little boss, I've been waiting for that hot dry noodles all day. Are you trying to make us die from the smell?"
"It'll be ready soon, aren't you? You're just afraid people won't know you're a glutton, aren't you?" Su An teased, both amused and exasperated.
Seeing everyone's eagerness, she deftly opened the pot, cooked the noodles, and after scooping them out, poured on the fragrant sesame sauce. Soon, the perfect hot dry noodles were freshly made.
The rich sesame sauce coated the noodles layer by layer, and everyone ate with such gusto that they forgot all about it and praised it highly.
Zhou Li, who was very conspicuous, finished his drink first. He didn't even want to miss the sauce on his lips, so he rolled it all into his mouth with his tongue to savor it. "This taste is definitely worth the wait!"
"Hmph, anything made by my eldest sister is guaranteed to be top-notch, you don't need to tell me—" Su Ting shouted, wolfing down his food.
The others were completely absorbed in the hot dry noodles and couldn't tear themselves away. As soon as they finished eating, they rushed to the kitchen to get another bowl. Even Xie Qingfeng didn't care about saving face and followed them in.
Seeing this scene, Su An couldn't help but smile, his gaze then falling on Fu Zhun's bowl, where he had finished eating in the blink of an eye and was now slowly wiping his lips.
"Not bad, not bad," she nodded in satisfaction, feeling a sense of happiness akin to raising a pig.
"Master, have you eaten and drunk your fill?" Zhou Li's eyes darted around, and he suddenly asked with a grin.
Fu Zhun raised an eyebrow and carefully put the handkerchief away. "Hmm."
Such a unique delicacy is one of a kind in the world, and it is truly satisfying.
Seeing this, Zhou Li smiled even more slyly and turned to Su An, saying, "Little boss, my master has a habit of strolling around after meals to digest. You've finished eating, so why don't you take him out for a walk?"
Su An was slightly taken aback and hadn't reacted yet, but Zhou Li finished speaking and ran towards the kitchen, shouting with laughter.
"Hey, leave some for me, I haven't had enough yet!"
The two left alone: "..."
Su An quickly coughed and glanced at Fu Zhun. She noticed that the man seemed a little embarrassed, his brows furrowed, and his Adam's apple bobbed almost imperceptibly, but he didn't say anything to refuse.
Got it, the God of Wealth really needs to digest his food.
Thinking of this, Su An stopped being coy and immediately helped him into his wheelchair, saying with a sigh, "It's only natural to digest, even the Emperor himself farts, there's nothing to be embarrassed about!"
