Kelai Restaurant was founded by Bai Nongrui and Bai Rou'er, and Bai Rou'er grew up in the restaurant.
The restaurant has two floors. The first floor is a regular lobby, which is responsible for receiving individual customers.
The second floor is a large banquet hall with three rooms, each capable of accommodating 40 tables for a banquet.
The third floor consists of private rooms, separated by solid wood screens, with a great distance between them to ensure maximum privacy.
Bai Nongrui has always been kind to others and has made many friends.
After he fell ill, many people came to visit him, but as time went on, fewer and fewer people came.
The stepmother mortgaged the restaurant to three of its competitors, who had long wanted to take it over. They had finally found an opportunity and would not let go of any chance to ruin the restaurant.
Wei Luo poached the head chef from the guesthouse and invited a lot of hooligans to the restaurant. Each person sat at a table and ordered only egg fried rice, eating it grain by grain.
Other customers, seeing this, dared not come in.
Bai Rou'er had reported it to the police, but there was nothing they could do.
They haven't committed any crimes; at most, they'll just have a brief visit to the police station and will be released soon.
The repayment was originally scheduled for the end of the month, and there were still two weeks left, but Wei Luo seemed impatient and kept trying to find ways to drive Bai Rou'er out.
Zhang Fan was puzzled. Why go to all that trouble, even going to the trouble of poaching employees? It was completely unreasonable.
Bai Rou'er shared Zhang Fan's doubts. She shook her head and said, "I've tried to find out, but I don't know the reason either."
Bai Nongrui was still seriously ill, and Bai Rou'er was worried that this matter would worsen her father's condition, so she had not dared to tell him.
Bai Rou'er rested her head on Zhang Fan's shoulder, gazing at every corner of the Kelai Restaurant with a look of reluctance in her eyes.
She pointed to a scratch on a corner of the wall: "I made that with a stone when I was two years old. My parents were not angry at all. Instead, they hugged me and praised me for my talent."
As she laughed, her eyes instantly welled up with tears.
Zhang Fan stroked Bai Rou'er's head, comforting her, "There must be a way."
"Young Miss." A soft voice came from behind.
Bai Rou'er wiped away her tears and looked back. She saw Uncle Wen, who had been the first to resign, walk in from the kitchen, cautiously looking around as he went.
Bai Rou'er's face instantly turned cold: "Uncle Wen, are you here to laugh at me?"
Wenda looked flustered: "Miss, you've misunderstood me. The boss has been so good to me, how could I betray him?"
Bai Rou'er: "Wei Luo sent you?"
Wenda shook his head: "This morning, Wei Luo's people spent a lot of money to poach us. Originally, everyone disagreed, but I persuaded everyone to agree."
Bai Rou'er turned around: "You're not an employee here anymore, so you should leave."
Zhang Fan: "Don't rush, let him finish speaking."
Wenda handed over a green cloth bag: "This is everyone's thoughtfulness."
Bai Rou'er took it and opened it. Inside was a thick stack of money. She asked in surprise, "What does this mean?"
Wenda: "Everyone knows you're in trouble, so you can only make money so quickly by pretending to side with them."
Bai Rou'er's eyes reddened, and her voice choked with emotion: "Uncle Wen, I...I'm sorry, I misunderstood you."
Wenda waved his hand: "We are sorry, boss. By the way, we just found out that Zhao Lin will be staying in Peach Blossom Town soon."
A look of astonishment flashed in Bai Rou'er's eyes: "Zhao Lin, the richest man in Jiangcheng?"
Wenda nodded: "Yes."
Bai Rou'er: "Thank you, Uncle Wen. Please be careful these days."
After Wenda left, Bai Rou'er analyzed, "No wonder Wei Luo was so eager to ruin our store; it turns out he wanted to get in touch with Zhao Lin."
Kelai Restaurant has the best reputation in Taohua County, and many people from other places like to eat there.
Therefore, there is a high probability that Zhao Lin will choose Kelai Restaurant.
Anyone who can hitch a ride with Zhao Lin will have a limitless future.
Zhang Fan: "If we can cater to his preferences and attract Zhao Lin over, we won't be afraid."
Bai Rou'er: "But how do we attract him now?"
Zhang Fan: "Do you know what his likes and dislikes are?"
Bai Rou'er: "I've only heard that he likes health preservation."
Zhang Fan: "The rockfish is just right."
Bai Rou'er's eyes lit up, then dimmed again: "As long as there are rockfish, there will definitely be business, but I can't cook, so where can I find a cook now?"
After thinking it over, her gaze suddenly fell on Zhang Fan: "Zhang Fan, could you make the grilled fish we had last time? It's sure to be a big hit."
Zhang Fan frowned: "Will it work?"
He just gathered some firewood to grill the fish, without even adding any seasoning. How could that compare to a chef's dish with so much seasoning?
Bai Rou'er's eyes were firm: "The fish you cooked was delicious."
The two set off immediately. Zhang Fan led the way, heading towards the border between Baijia Village and Zhangjiapo. The road was relatively easy to travel and would save a lot of time.
Zhang Fan stood on the shore and released his spiritual power. The stone rock fish swam over, wagging its tail. The shore was covered in a dark mass of fish.
Bai Rou'er was surprised, her eyes shining: "Zhang Fan, you're amazing! These fish seem to know you."
Zhang Fan ran his fingers through his hair and said smugly, "They're probably captivated by my good looks."
Bai Rou'er chuckled: "You're so narcissistic."
The gloom in her heart dissipated considerably. Zhang Fan made her feel at ease, as if with him there, all problems could be solved.
Although she said she didn't want Zhang Fan to be narcissistic, Bai Rou'er's gaze followed him intently, her eyes filled with deep affection.
To keep the fish fresh, the two used a bucket to hold it, and Zhang Fan didn't hide his abilities, scooping the fish out directly.
