Chapter 478 Xiao Wenyin Extra (5)
Mo Chen had the confidence to open a store in Beijing alone, and his method was not complicated.
Although he was only in his teens, he already had some understanding of the situation in the court.
"I have bribed the waiter at the restaurant opposite. If anyone causes trouble in my store, I will report it to the authorities," he said.
Xiao Wenyin was puzzled: "Report it to the police? Will reporting it control them? If they could be controlled, how could they have been so arrogant and domineering in the capital for so long?"
"It wasn't necessarily the case in the past, but now there's a chance." Silent explained, "Although the old man of the Xun family has passed away, his granddaughter married into the Shen family over there. With your parents' backing, their influence cannot be underestimated. Add to that the Xia and Feng families, and their momentum is already surpassing that of the Zhang family."
"What does that have to do with your small shop?" Xiao Wenyin frowned.
"Have you ever heard that a thousand-mile dike can be destroyed by a single ant?" Silence said, "Now they're determined to cause trouble for the Zhang family. They won't let go of any matter, no matter how small. They'll protect me no matter what, and even thank me."
"Oh..." Xiao Wenyin was stunned when she heard it.
Momo knew that Xiao Wenyin was young and had a personality like her mother. She didn't like to waste her brain on official affairs and preferred to be free and easy.
His personality is more like Wen Yin's father than his own parents. He pays more attention to officialdom and has a good business acumen.
The difference is that her father would give up everything he could have for her mother, and they would hide in the world together, not caring about worldly affairs.
And he...
"I want to drink, come with me." Xiao Wenyin said suddenly.
"What?" Silent asked immediately, "Why do you want to drink? Have you ever drunk alcohol?"
"No." Xiao Wenyin answered calmly.
"and you……"
"That's why I want to drink it because I've never had it before! Why are you so long-winded?" Xiao Wenyin urged, "Quick, close the shop. There's no business anyway. Let's go to the restaurant."
Chen Mo wanted to explain that there was a fight in the shop so no one came, but business was usually good.
But I feel like now is not the time to explain this.
"If you don't go, I'll go alone." Xiao Wenyin turned around and left.
"Wait, I'll go with you!" The person who is best at controlling silence in this world is none other than Xiao Wenyin.
The two of them came to the most luxurious restaurant in the capital, booked the best private room, and ordered a table full of food and wine.
Before she even had a bite of the food, Xiao Wenyin poured herself a large glass and drank it all in one gulp.
"Are you worried about something?" Silent asked her.
"My parents are leaving." Xiao Wenyin answered directly.
"Leave? Where are they going?"
"I don't know. They're probably wandering around," Xiao Wenyin said sullenly. "They're just like that. A place as small as the capital can't hold them back. If I hadn't had the birthmark on my face before, they'd have been worried about me and left long ago."
Silent felt distressed: "Can't you bear to leave them?"
"Can't bear to part with it?" Xiao Wenyin poured herself another glass, "There's no such thing as being reluctant to part with it."
Xiao Wenyin is not a child who cares too much about family affection. She longs to become strong and independent. She even hopes that her parents will go out so that she can be the boss at home.
"But...your parents just left you alone in the capital? Aren't they afraid that you'd be in danger?" Mo Chen still felt it was a bit outrageous.
Xiao Wenyin still shook her head: "What's there to be afraid of? They left me a lot of magic weapons and formations. If I'm in any danger, they will know immediately. They also said that Uncle Jiji and your parents will take care of me."
"Then why are you unhappy?" Silent asked the point.
Xiao Wenyin's face had begun to turn red at this time.
She tightened her grip on the wine glass: "I want to go out too."
Silent said hurriedly: "You can't do it now..."
Before he could finish his words, Xiao Wenyin interrupted him: "I know! I'm young, inexperienced, and my cultivation is low... It's okay in the capital because I have people protecting me. But if I go out, I might get into danger - my parents have said this to me many times."
"They're right." Silent said bluntly at the risk of being yelled at.
"What about when I grow up?" Xiao Wenyin seemed to be asking the silence, but also seemed to be asking and answering herself. "I don't want to stay in the capital. I want to see the outside world."
"Then go ahead." After a moment of silence, Silent said softly.
"Not everyone wants to leave, right?" Xiao Wenyin asked again, "Whether it's studying, becoming an official, or doing business... the capital is the most suitable place."
"What do you want to say?" Silent's heart began to beat wildly.
"I said I might never come back! I wonder if there is anyone to go with me!" Xiao Wenyin asked loudly.
However, the person sitting across from her at the table did not respond.
The candlelight jumped suddenly, but no one in the room moved.
"I don't know, maybe you can ask someone else." Silence answered calmly.
Xiao Wenyin drank the last big glass of wine and turned to leave.
…
Stupid, idiotic, turtle bastard!
Xiao Wenyin cursed and cried at the same time. Although she had expected this result a long time ago, she still felt heartbroken when she heard it with her own ears.
The two of them grew up together, were the subject of countless jokes about child marriage, and took care of each other while growing up. Their relationship has long since surpassed that of ordinary friends.
Their worlds intersect, yet they exclude each other.
She wants to practice, gain experience, and get out of the protective circle of the capital.
As for silence, whether in officialdom or in business, he is destined to be suitable for the capital.
She asked Silent to leave with him, but he refused.
She understands, she really understands.
She would undoubtedly encounter evil spirits, ghosts, and bad people when she went out. When faced with these, silence would only be a "burden" to her.
If she stayed, she would be like a bird in a cage all her life, because she could not see far away, could not see the road her parents walked, could not see the colors and scenes they talked about... and would wither and become dull.
They are destined not to be people of the same world.
…
Xiao Wenyin practiced in seclusion for three years, and her cultivation level rose from the second level to the fourth level, which was faster than her mother's in modern times.
Silent had been doing business for three years, growing from a small shop into a chain business in the capital and neighboring county towns.
These are all remarkable achievements.
However, those who praised Xiao Wenyin did not understand the speed of silence, and those who praised silence did not know what Xiao Wenyin's fourth-level cultivation level actually meant.
They would occasionally have dinner together, listen to music together, and have a drink together.
But there always seems to be a barrier between the two of them.
