Anyang County.
As Shen Yuanze walked out of the county government office, he watched Chen Qingqing's departing figure and smiled thoughtfully.
This woman is indeed extraordinary. No wonder the young lady brought back from her brother-in-law's house was tricked. It's no wonder she was defeated by her.
The "little beauty" he was referring to was Chen Ruolan.
That day, when I went to visit Fan's sister, I saw Chen Ruolan standing by the wall like a punching bag being scolded by her sister as soon as I entered the house.
Seeing that she was quite attractive, he became more interested.
Upon further inquiry, it was discovered that she was Fan Tong's newly acquired concubine.
However, given Fan Tong's status as his brother-in-law, he only stole a few glances. Who knew that their eyes would meet so easily?
During the meal, Chen Ruolan served him like a maid, constantly refilling his tea and wine.
She would flirt with him when no one was looking, making him feel itchy inside, like a cat's paw or a dog's lick.
Shen Yuanze appears gentle and refined on the surface, but he's a lecher at heart.
If Fan Tong hadn't been there, I would have pounced on him like a hungry wolf.
But he remained relatively calm and knew how to control his lust.
With a beautiful woman serving him, he naturally couldn't drink less. Taking the opportunity to take the wine glass, he touched that soft, white hand, feeling incredibly happy.
After a satisfying meal, I returned to my room feeling like my body was about to explode, and I really wanted to release all the energy inside me.
Just as he was pounding on the wall and scratching the floor, Chen Ruolan came in with a cup of tea.
His eyes widened, like a drooling cat spotting a lively, bright red, and glistening fish.
He leaped forward and tackled Chen Ruolan to the ground.
In no time at all, he stripped her down to her bare skin, leaving her looking like a white-skinned chicken.
Chen Ruolan didn't struggle; instead, she used all her charm to win Shen Yuanze's favor.
The two of them, like donkeys running wild, kicked off the stakes and tossed and turned for most of the night before finally falling into a deep sleep.
The sun was high in the sky, practically high in the air, yet the two were still entangled together like dogs in distress, caught in bed together by the Fan family.
Fan Tong was so angry at being cuckolded that he almost died of rage, and he even considered selling Chen Ruolan to a slave trader.
Shen Yuanze was extremely satisfied after a night of passionate lovemaking with her, and feeling a little reluctant to part with her, he shamelessly took Chen Ruolan back to Anyang.
Later, he learned that this woman was not favored in the Fan family at all. In order to escape her misery, she deliberately put aphrodisiac in his tea, hoping that he would take her away from the Fan family.
Chen Ruolan is quite shrewd in this respect, but compared to Chen Qingqing in front of her, she is simply a fool.
I'm tired of playing these days, so how about...
Having made up his mind, Shen Yuanze's lips curled up slightly, revealing a sly smile.
The whole family was overjoyed to win the lawsuit, so Chen Qingqing found a large restaurant to celebrate.
Lin felt a little apprehensive. Although her own home was now a three-courtyard house with marble floors, this was her first time dining in a restaurant, and she was very careful with every step she took.
"Honey, the food here must be very expensive. Why don't we just find a roadside stall and grab a bite? There's no need to waste money on this."
“Yes, little sister, why don’t we go to another place?” Chen Feng agreed.
Wang Guotou, who was following behind him, seemed quite interested but did not offer any opinion.
Chen Qingqing laughed and said, "Big brother, I brought you here to eat, not just to fill your stomach."
"If you don't come here to eat, what else are you doing?"
"As the saying goes, 'Know yourself and know your enemy, and you will win every battle.' Although we are not on a military campaign, if you want to open a restaurant and defeat Wu Shiren and stand out among many restaurants, you must understand your competitors, discover their strengths and advantages, and learn from them."
"Little sister, as long as the food tastes good, you'll naturally have many repeat customers. What's there to learn?" Chen Feng scratched his head, puzzled.
Chen Qingqing smiled and shook her head, "Opening a restaurant isn't just about making delicious food; there are many other factors, such as..."
Just then, the waiter came over with a big smile and greeted them warmly, "Sir, how many of you are in your party? Would you like a private room on the second floor or would you like to dine in the main hall?"
Chen Qingqing looked around and saw that there were no good seats in the hall; the remaining seats were all along the aisles, where people were coming and going.
"Let's have a private room!"
"Alright, Tianxi Garden on the second floor. Please take your time going upstairs, and watch your step."
Led by the waiter, the group arrived at the private room.
The waiter brought over the menu and patiently introduced each specialty dish. He showed no impatience at all because of Chen Qingqing's questions, and always had a faint smile on his face.
Chen Qingqing ordered several signature dishes and a pot of tea.
Chen Feng had been thinking about Chen Qingqing's words, and seeing the waiter leave, he spoke again, "Little sister, you just said that there are many factors involved in doing business, what exactly do you mean? I'll listen to you."
"Brother, I'm not telling you to listen to me, but that you need to observe carefully. For example, from the moment we came in, the waiter didn't look at us with disdain because of our clothes. He was always very friendly and introduced the dishes in a very knowledgeable way."
When people go to a restaurant, they're not just there to enjoy the food; they also want to feel cared for, have their wishes listened to, and understand their needs. Only then can they truly win over their customers.
Chen Feng nodded as if he understood. "Little sister, I understand. As long as I open the restaurant, I will definitely learn from others, learn from their strengths and make up for my weaknesses, and run it with my heart."
Chen Qingqing nodded sincerely.
The food and drinks were served quickly, and the table was full of delicious dishes that looked and smelled wonderful.
Everyone ate and chatted, creating a lively atmosphere.
Chen Qingqing glanced downstairs casually and suddenly spotted a familiar figure.
She was startled and looked carefully into the crowd, only to find that the figure had already disappeared.
She shook her head. Chen Ruolan was at the Fan family's house, so why would she come to Anyang County? She must be seeing things.
After the family had eaten and drunk their fill, they hired a horse-drawn carriage to head home.
Old Mrs. Chen waited at the village entrance, eagerly anticipating the spectacle.
Just as she was standing on tiptoe, craning her neck to look into the distance, she heard someone speaking behind her.
"Old woman, I've been looking for you for ages! What are you staring at here for?"
"What do you want from me?"
"The sun has already set. Ruhua has prepared dinner and is just waiting for you to come home!"
"I'm not hungry yet, you go back and eat first!" said Grandma Chen, glancing into the distance again.
"You've been out all day, what are you still doing guarding the village entrance? Come home with me." Old Chen pulled her up and started to leave.
"Why are you pulling me? I already said I'm not hungry." Old Mrs. Chen shook off her hand.
"Old man, don't you know? Zhan Shan's family went to the county to file a lawsuit. Do you think they can win that case?"
