The only response to Lu Ying was Zhang Jiyue's endless sobs. She hadn't expected that her words would have no effect on Lu Ying at all.
Jiang Qiao'er did not expect that although Lu Ying and Yu Ziqing were both men, and it is true that men also like delicate young girls, Lu Ying was not Yu Ziqing. Yu Ziqing had nothing and could do nothing. He could only rely on Jiang San Niang for a living. Although he did not say anything on the surface, over time, he had already developed the mentality that he was not as good as Jiang San Niang.
But Lu Ying was different. He lived on his own. His family was wealthy, and he was with Hu Mingmei, who had not mistreated him. He also had a lot of money and knew about Jiang San Niang's past, but he didn't care. So Zhang Jiyue's words naturally had no effect on him.
After drinking a bowl of medicine, Lu Ying released the pressure points on Zhang Jiyue's body. Zhang Jiyue collapsed silently, her clothes soaked through. Jiang Sanniang stood up, and Lu Ying took out a handkerchief from his pocket and wiped Jiang Sanniang's hands clean.
At this moment, Zhang Jiyue began to groan. Hu Mingmei glanced at her with disgust and said in a deep voice, "Lu Ying, clean up, don't make the house dirty!"
This is a new house, and Bai Nuo has only lived here for a few days. Blood was spilled in the living room. How unlucky!
Lu Ying nodded and told Jiang San Niang to go back first, so as not to frighten her with the bloody scene, which would be too distressing for her.
"Sister San Niang, let's go together. The shop's accounts haven't been settled yet!" Bai Nuo also came up and took Jiang San Niang's hand, preparing to leave. Although Hu Mingmei did not forbid her from participating in these shady things, and she could accept it, she still did not want to see blood. The smell of blood would rush into her nose and make her feel nauseous.
**
As for how Hu Mingmei and Lu Ying dealt with Yu Ziqing and his wife, when she got up the next morning, she heard Lu Ying say that Jiang Qiao'er had woken up. Apart from being very weak and unable to get out of bed, she was fine. Upon hearing this, Bai Nuo was completely relieved and devoted herself to the Duobao Pavilion, striving to ensure that the Duobao Pavilion could operate normally during Jiang San Niang's wedding.
"Girl, something terrible has happened! Come and see!" Qinghe rushed upstairs, holding something in her hand. She quickly approached Bai Nuo and showed her the item. "Look, this is the jewelry that came out from across the street. It's exactly the same as the ones on our first floor."
"No way?" Bai Nuo put down the clothes she was holding, leaned closer to take a look, and said in surprise, "They found the pearl so quickly??"
Pearl didn't intend to keep it a secret forever; she just wanted to be the first to taste the crab meat and drink the soup. However, Duobaoxuan across the street seemed to be working against them in everything. It was one thing for the shop to be right across the street, and another for the name to be almost identical, but how come the food they made was exactly the same?
She couldn't help but feel that Duobaoxuan was shrouded in an eerie atmosphere. She had lived in the town for quite some time, but she had never heard of Manager He. Not only her, but even Jiang San Niang had never heard of him. It was as if this person had appeared out of nowhere.
"Let's go take a look!" Bai Nuo put down the clothes in her hand and hurriedly walked out. Qing He quickly followed and closed the door on the second floor.
Bai Nuo went down to the first floor, hurriedly told Hu Mingmei, and then took Qinghe to Duobaoxuan across the street.
"A rare guest indeed!" Manager He greeted Bai Nuo as he stepped into the entrance of Duobaoxuan. In fact, he had been watching from upstairs the whole time, and he knew as soon as Bai Nuo arrived.
However, Manager He had no intention of neglecting Bai Nuo, so he came down quickly.
"I wonder what brings you here today?" Manager He said with a smile, welcoming Bai Nuo inside while calling out, "Da Lin, come out and serve tea!"
Dalin?
Bai Nuo felt a chill run down her spine upon hearing the name. Could this Da Lin be the same Da Lin she knew?
Although she was surprised, Bai Nuo still smiled and said, "Our two houses are right across from each other. Duobaoxuan has been open for so long, and I have never paid a visit or had any contact with them. I am really ashamed!"
Manager He observed Bai Nuo with a smile for a year and secretly with a smile for a year. When he saw that Bai Nuo did not react at all when she heard the name Bai Dalin, he couldn't help but think to himself that although this little girl was young, her composure was still quite good.
Manager He said, "Manager Bai is too meddlesome; it should be me who goes to visit him."
Just as Manager He led Bai Nuo into the room, Bai Dalin brought in tea. As he entered, he glanced at Bai Nuo. Manager He smiled and said, "Dalin, look who's here?"
Then, he looked at Bai Nuo and smiled, "Manager Bai, your father works for me, you don't mind, do you?"
Bai Nuo smiled slightly, "Not at all, I'm overjoyed that Manager He is willing to take care of my father. In the future, Duobao Pavilion will also need Manager He's continued support and courtesy! Right, Father?"
Bai Nuo smiled, showing no displeasure whatsoever. Manager He, seeing her like this, felt as if he had been slapped in the face, his cheeks burning. He was deliberately making things difficult for Bai Nuo, but she seemed not to understand at all, as if he had punched cotton, unable to exert any force.
“Your dad has really done it! He’s only been with our shop for two months, and he’s already helped us develop new jewelry. Plus, our profits have increased. Dalin, you should spend more time with Manager Bai. I won’t disturb you two catching up!”
