Chapter 162



After Qiao Zhixia received a call from the restaurant in the evening, Qin Yunlang wanted to accompany her, but she refused.

"It's early. Give the kids a bath, make them some milk, and then go to bed with them. I can take care of it."

Qin Yunlang could send a driver to take her there.

When she arrived at her restaurant, the manager Xu Xinlan was already waiting for her.

She discovered that the roses that were originally blooming outside the store all seemed to have contracted severe black spot disease in just half a day, with large black spots on the leaves and flowers, and signs of rotting.

Qiao Zhixia picked up the petals that had fallen on the ground and brought them to her nose to sniff. Sure enough, she smelled a faint smell similar to pesticide.

Apparently, someone had sprayed him with strong medicine.

“What should we do? Our store is hosting a wedding banquet for a big shot tomorrow, and they are coming to our store for roses.” The store manager was extremely anxious.

Since the opening of Qiao Zhixia Garden Restaurant, it has always received some wedding banquet orders, as if holding wedding banquets here has become a fashion.

Tomorrow a director of the Radio and Television Bureau is going to hold a wedding for his son in a restaurant. He has already paid a deposit in advance. If the wedding banquet cannot proceed normally, he will only have to pay a small penalty for breach of contract.

The key is that if she offends the people at the TV station, her future promotional activities such as placing advertisements on TV stations will also be hindered.

Qiao Zhixia asked someone to bring a shovel. She scooped up a nearly rotten rose and checked it. She found that the root was not dead yet.

It can still be saved.

She immediately went to the room where she usually kept her utensils, found the fountain, and took out the spiritual spring water from the space.

In the past, because she was suspicious, she would dilute the spiritual spring water in proportion to control the time when planting, but now she did not dilute it and sprayed it directly on the seriously ill flowers.

Now at ten o'clock at night, if something unexpected happens, these roses will come back to life in one night.

The store manager saw her just spraying some well-known potion on her and stopped caring about it, but couldn't help showing worry.

"Boss, is this really okay? What if..."

"You can get off work first! Just come on time tomorrow."

Since Qiao Zhixia said so, the store manager didn't have anything to say.

When the store manager was about to leave, Qiao Zhixia stopped him again and said, "Yes, you should make some arrangements. From this evening, two teams will patrol the place at night, one in the open and one in the dark."

"Okay, I understand."

After the store manager left, Qiao Zhixia and Xu Xinlan planned to sleep in the store for one night in order to observe the situation.

There was a small private room on the upper floor of the restaurant where one could rest. She and Xu Xinlan could squeeze in together and spend the night there. She also happened to have something to discuss with Xu Xinlan.

"Who do you think did this?" Qiao Zhixia asked Xu Xinlan.

"Using the process of elimination, it's hard to guess. The time of the accident was right after receiving the reservation from the TV station. This person obviously knew about this and chose this time deliberately."

The only people who know about this matter, besides the relevant personnel in the store, are the customers.

The people in the store have not changed and are basically trustworthy, so the problem must be with the customers who made reservations.

"Bai Nanqing is friends with the leader of the TV station, so she must be invited to this wedding banquet..."

Qiao Zhixia's eyes were dark: "You said, who is she?"

"Yes and no, we'll know when we see her coming tomorrow." Xu Xinlan's tone was calm and cold.

Qiao Zhixia lay on her back on the small bed, looking at the black and white photo Xu Xinlan gave her, "Have you always carried this photo with you? Did you not lose it during the time you fell into the sea and were imprisoned?"

"You, after I fell into the sea and was rescued, I secretly went back and took it out. In order to maintain the appearance of my deep feelings, Qi Heng did not throw away my things, but threw them all among the sundries. In addition to the certificate, I also got a certificate that allows me to go to Hong Kong City Bank to withdraw gold."

"You have been hiding this in secret. Are you ready for a revenge plan?"

Xu Xiaolan's chest was filled with hatred, and she almost suffocated. She gritted her teeth and said, "There will be a business party at the beginning of next month. I want to go with you. We can go and give trouble to that smug beast."

"Just to make things worse?"

"That beast hides too well. I have to let myself get confused and make mistakes in the chaos before my true nature is exposed."

"Do you need me to help you with anything? Let's talk about our relationship as cousins ​​first. You deserve half the credit for making Jingyang a success. If you want me to do it, you can ask for it."

"I want to overthrow Qi Heng and bring him back to his original form. I really need your help." After Xu Xiaolan finished speaking, she took out a corporate brochure titled [Feixia Daily Chemicals] from her bag.

"Feixia is Qiheng's biggest competitor, especially before foreign investment was introduced. It was even harder to tell who was better. But now it has suffered a heavy blow due to Qiheng's malicious suppression. I want to counter Qiheng by supporting Feixia."

Qiao Zhixia is not unfamiliar with Feixia, an old domestic brand, especially its shampoo. After using it once, her hair will smell fragrant and be extra smooth for a week.

Then there is the pearl cream, which is not only moisturizing and whitening, but also not sticky at all.

When she was little, her mother saw her older sister's face was so chapped from frostbite that her mother spent a few cents to buy her a bag of facial oil. However, because she couldn't read, she bought pearl cream instead.

But it turned out to be surprisingly useful, and every autumn and winter, my mother would save money and secretly buy them two bags.

In the previous life, this brand was suppressed by foreign capital and disappeared before the end of the 1990s.

On the other hand, although foreign-funded enterprises and joint ventures occupy most of the domestic market, their product quality is crude and shoddy, and they simply abandon good quality for money.

"Let Feixia come and talk to me about cooperation! I can invest in you and provide you with high-quality, preferential and priority supply of raw materials."

"Thank you, Zhizhi..." Xu Xiaolan turned her head to look at Qiao Zhixia, her vision blurred by the mist.

Qiao Zhixia decided to help Feixia occupy the market, not only to punish the scum for Xu Xiaolan, but also for her own childhood feelings, and to make money.

Merchants pursue profits, she trades at a loss, investing today for greater returns tomorrow.

"There's no need to say thank you between you and me. Go to sleep. I'm sleepy..."

The next day, just after daybreak, Qiao Zhixia heard in a daze cheers and praises coming from downstairs.

"Why do I feel that the 꿷天놅 rose is more beautiful than before?"

"Oh my god, look! There are black roses! Isn't this so beautiful?"

"I'm sorry, flowers can be admired and picked..."

Hearing this, Qiao Zhixia curled her lips and smiled. She knew it was safe.

At noon, as the auspicious time of the wedding banquet approached, guests arrived one after another.

Bai Nanqing was invited as a distinguished guest, so naturally he and the newlyweds came out together to star.

"Do you know that our wedding restaurant has many beautiful roses? If you want to hold a wedding banquet in this restaurant, you need to make a reservation three months in advance."

Before the bride even got into the wedding car, she began to share her excitement with her sisters, and almost everyone began to look forward to it.

Bai Nanqing sat in his car, looking at the expectant eyes of these people, and chuckled coldly: "Look forward to it! The more you look forward to it now, the more disappointed you will be later..."
