Gu Beijian snorted coldly upon seeing this.
Wang Deli continued, "Young man, I think you must have misheard. I was just discussing with Shopkeeper Yi how to make delicious dishes, right, Shopkeeper Yi?" Wang Deli gave Yi Yami a threatening look.
Yi Yami sighed inwardly. She understood the principle that a powerful dragon cannot defeat a local snake. She nodded and smiled politely with narrowed eyes. "Yes, Mayor, would you like a plate of braised food to try?"
"No, I have some official business to attend to, so I won't stay here." Wang Deli stood up and was about to leave.
Gu Beijian took a step back and gave him space to pass, but in fact he didn't want to have any chance of contact with this person.
Wang Deli seemed to have thought of something, so he turned around and said, "Sir, when are you free? I'd like to invite you to my house for a drink and catch up."
"No, I don't drink." Gu Beijian refused.
Wang Deli was stunned when he heard this. Wasn't he just asking Yi Yami about his wine? He understood. He didn't want to spend time with him. Wang Deli immediately put on a smile and said, "Okay, tea is fine too."
"Let's talk about it later. I'll come to you when I have time." Gu Beijian said impatiently.
Wang Deli nodded and said goodbye to the two of them. Yi Yami politely replied, "Goodbye."
Only after Wang Deli left the shop did Yi Yami breathe a sigh of relief, "Ah..."
Gu Beijian glanced at her and said, "Why are you sighing? Cheer up. Can this little mayor overwhelm you?"
"He can't overpower me, but I'm worried that he won't let us go so easily. I don't mind, I'm thick-skinned and not easily hurt, but the other girls in my shop may not be as strong as me. If he wants to spread the word that the girls in my shop are not clean and people's gossip is scary, I'm not worried about the business, but I'm worried that these girls can't stand it and will be unable to get over it..." Yiyami stood at the stairs on the third floor, looking down at Xiaodi and the others who were busy in the shop.
Gu Beijian's eyes moved as he gently comforted her, "It's okay, it won't happen. I warned him today, so he shouldn't be like that."
Yi Yami sighed, "I hope so!"
After dinner, the two of them went their separate ways and went about their own business.
Gu Beijian whispered to Tian Qing, "Go, keep an eye on that mayor. If he does anything unfavorable, come back and tell me."
Tianqing took the order and went.
