Chapter 1104 The Carefree Tonic Soup



Jing Zhe remembered clearly that Madam Feng's surname was also Lin—after all, she was Lin Qingshan's aunt, so this Manager Lin was most likely from Madam Feng's family.

However, Jing Zhe always felt uncomfortable with the way Manager Lin looked at him, as if he... had something on his mind?

But Manager Lin is not young, and he doesn't seem to be gay. What's going on?

On the way, Manager Lin was still talking to Jing Zhe.

"Young master, you're not from around here, are you?"

"Did you come alone, young master?"

"Did you come here just for a meal, young master?"

"..."

Jing Zhe already felt that Manager Lin was a bit strange, and after hearing his question, he felt even worse.

Not wanting to say much, after a few perfunctory words, Jing Zhe ordered some dishes, and then Manager Lin left the room.

Seeing the door close, Jing Zhe couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief.

When did I become so frightened by a man?

Jing Zhe could only manage a wry smile.

Feng Family Restaurant was very efficient; the dishes were served in less than fifteen minutes. When Jing Zhe saw that it was the waiter who brought the dishes instead of Manager Lin, he was relieved.

While the waiter was serving the dishes, Jing Zhe asked curiously, "Young man, I've heard that this Feng Family Restaurant belongs to Madam Feng. Why is your manager...?"

Before he could finish speaking, the waiter knew what he was asking and said while putting the dishes on the table, "This Feng Family Restaurant does indeed belong to our lady. However, since our lady comes from the Feng family, she naturally cannot show her face in public every day. Therefore, she entrusted the restaurant to Manager Lin to manage. Oh, by the way, Manager Lin is our lady's cousin from her maternal family."

Perhaps seeing that Jing Zhe was indeed not short of money, having ordered a table full of dishes by himself, the waiter was also very happy and started talking as if he had opened a floodgate.

After listening, Jing Zhe asked again, "Does Madam Feng usually work at the restaurant?"

The waiter nodded and said, "Yes, it's here."

After saying that, he glanced at Jing Zhe again, somewhat wary, and asked, "Why are you asking about this?"

"To be honest, young man, my real purpose in coming here today is not for dinner, but to see Madam Feng."

"What do you want with our lady?"

"I... have a very important business to discuss with Madam Feng. Could you please inform her?"

"And you still have—"

The waiter didn't take Jing Zhe seriously. Perhaps in his eyes, Jing Zhe wasn't qualified to do business with Madam Feng. Just as he was about to refuse him outright, Manager Lin's voice came in.

"no problem!"

As soon as the voice arrived, Manager Lin appeared at the door, smiling at Jing Zhe: "The moment I saw you, young master, I guessed you were here to talk to our madam! So I already informed her earlier. Please wait a moment, young master!"

Manager Lin rubbed his hands together, seemingly very excited, and he emphasized the word "talk" when he said it.

"Alright, you can go now."

As he spoke, Manager Lin dismissed the bewildered waiter, while another waiter stood outside the door carrying a clay pot. Manager Lin instructed him to place the clay pot in front of Jing Zhe.

"Young master, this is our Feng Family Restaurant's signature dish, the Leisurely Nourishing Soup. Please try it!"

"..."

Jing Zhe was already intimidated by Manager Lin, and his current actions were even more perplexing. How could Jing Zhe dare to drink?

"Manager Lin seems to have made a mistake. I did not order any 'Nourishing Soup'."

The name of this soup... sounds rather improper. Jing Zhe was afraid that he would be anally assaulted the moment he drank the soup.

"Young master, please don't worry. This nourishing soup is a gift from our restaurant. Please feel free to drink it!"

"..."

Looking at Manager Lin's fawning expression, Jing Zhe felt a headache coming on.

Seeing that Jing Zhe didn't move, Manager Lin thought he didn't believe him, so he stepped forward and opened the lid of the casserole.

At that moment, a strong, pungent odor wafted over, and Jing Zhe glanced at it casually, only to be immediately shocked.

Wow, that's definitely nutritious!

You can see all sorts of aphrodisiacs like goji berries, epimedium, morinda root, and cistanche. But that's not all. The most important thing is a long thing floating in the middle of this casserole—I don't know what kind of whip it is, no wonder it's called that. It's really too nourishing, and men will definitely be able to enjoy themselves after drinking it—of course, the premise is that there must be a beautiful woman to accompany them.

If it were a man next to him… Thinking of this, Jing Zhe glanced at the smiling shopkeeper Lin and couldn’t help but shiver!

Such a big, burly man, I never would have guessed he's an Omega...

"Young master, please drink some while it's hot!"

Seeing that Jing Zhe hadn't made a move, Manager Lin urged him on.

"Um... Manager Lin, this soup... is far too nourishing. My body... doesn't need it!"

"..."

After listening, Manager Lin looked Jing Zhe up and down. Although Jing Zhe didn't look fat, his long robe made him look quite plump. It was easy to guess that Jing Zhe was the type who was "slim when dressed, but muscular when undressed".

The more he looked, the more satisfied he became, so he smiled and said, "Young master, your physique is indeed excellent. But for a man, there's never a bad thing to take supplements. Besides, you'll be even more vigorous after taking supplements. Don't you think so, young master?"

"..."

Jing Zhe got goosebumps. If it weren't for the fact that he was there to discuss some business, Jing Zhe would have loved to punch Manager Lin's head off!

It seemed that speaking politely wouldn't work, so Jing Zhe put on a stern face and said in a deep voice, "Manager Lin, thank you for your trouble, but I'm a little hungry now and would like to have some food first... As for the soup, there's no rush, we can drink it later."

Upon hearing this, Manager Lin clapped his hands and laughed, "Young master is right. It's lunchtime now, and you're so young, it's normal to be hungry. Besides, you need to be full to have energy! And this soup is hot, so it's perfect for you to drink it after you've eaten! I won't disturb you any longer."

After saying that, Manager Lin prepared to leave. As he closed the door, he didn't forget to remind him, "Young master, please remember to drink the soup!"

"..."

As the door slowly closed, Jing Zhe finally breathed a sigh of relief, but he still felt a chill in his heart, especially since Manager Lin's eyes were not honest when he spoke, and kept glancing at him, making him feel like he was being harassed.

That son of a bitch!

Jing Zhe cursed inwardly, thinking that once everything was done, he would definitely give him a good beating; he was so disgusting!

Jing Zhe was originally a little hungry, but after being disgusted by Manager Lin, he lost his appetite and didn't eat a single bite. He was also wondering whether it was true or false that Madam Feng would arrive soon, and why Madam Feng would take the initiative to come and talk to him.

Hmm, why does this Feng Family Restaurant seem so strange?

For the first time in all the time since Jing Zhe transmigrated here, he felt a sense of being out of control over things.

"Clang clang clang..."

Just then, there was a knock on the door.
